E
F
A
I
Last
week,
may
I
actually
had
the
high
C
people
here.
Are
you
bringing
them
in
for
these
meeting
the
communication
people,
whatever
you
call
them
I'll,
be
at
this
meeting
here
this
meeting
recorded
this
meeting
needs
to
be
on
the
TV.
We've
got
to
make
sure
the
bike's
always
working
and
everything
so
I
mean
they
should
be
at
these
meetings.
Foreign.
I
The
other
thing,
the
last
few
days
I've
been
dealing
with
the
chief
Miller.
The
homeless
has
almost
taken
over
this
city.
People
can't
go
to
the
parks,
they
can't
come
downtown
everywhere.
You
go
at
10
or
12
of
them
at
Port,
Avenue,
the
lighthouse
Park
people
went
to
bring
their
kids
there
wouldn't
even
get
out
of
the
car.
I
You
know
behind
the
Food
Giant
they
living
can't
get
rid
of
them.
Well
right.
Last
night,
I
come
out
of
KC
Hall
they're
on
the
streets,
11
o'clock,
11
30
at
night,
and
people
can't
come
out
to
reference
when
I'm
being
hustled
I
mean
it's
time
to
step
up
and
move
them
out
of
town
they're,
not
doing
any
good.
For
you.
This
is
a
tourist
town.
I
know
they
have
a
lot
of
trouble
at
Mahoney,
I
ain't
around
it
right
there
I
mean
we
need
to
take
care
of
this
problem.
I
F
Let
me
respond,
you
know
it
is
an
ongoing
problem.
We've
got
four
police
officers
that
do
a
great
job
and
and
actually
try
to
do
the
things
that
we
can
legally
do
it's.
You
know
it's
not
against
the
law.
The
panhand
is
not
against
the
law
to
be
homeless
and
and
it's
a
challenge.
Every
week
we've
had
some
significant
problems
with
regard
to
the
weather
and
and
the
homeless.
You
know,
problems
that
they've
been
encountering
and
I.
F
Think
we've
lost
a
few
that
you
know
it's
a
sad
thing
and
and
we're
working
every
day
to
try
and
find
a
solution
that
we
can
imply
that
we
can
Implement
so
I.
You
know,
I
can't
argue
with
you
know,
with
the
incidents
and
the
things
that
you
you
see
every
day
we
see
it,
I
see
it
every
business
owner
sees
it.
We
tried
to
do
some
things
about.
You
know
panhandling
and
vouchering,
and
getting
places
to
go,
especially
in
this
heat
and
I.
F
Think
it's
probably
even
more
intense
the
activity
that
you
see
because
of
the
you
know,
the
the
you
know
the
continuous
95
degree
plus
temperatures,
and
it
probably
you
know
we'll
we'll
stay
at
that
level.
Until
you
know
something
can
be
done
almost
like
the
cold
when
they
have
places
that
need
to
go
to
get
out
of
the
cold,
I.
F
Think
there's
you
know
it's
a
need
to
do
something
for
the
heat
also-
and
you
know
I
can't
argue
with
what
you're
saying,
but
we're
we're,
not
handcuffed,
but
we
were
challenged
to
do
the
things
that
can
be
done
legally,
and
that
would
be
my
response
to
well
to
the
situation.
Well,.
I
No
I
need
to
look
at
that
because
the
people
that
live
in
the
center
of
Biloxi
they
have
a
lot
of
legal
rights
too
it's
time
for
us
to
step
up
for
them.
So
the
last
thing
is
I
want
to
close
the
meeting
on
a
bob
fell
or
just
went
to
the
funeral.
Bobby
worked
at
the.
He
was
an
inspector.
He
was
a
box
man.
B
Guns
all
right,
just
two
things
wanted
to
ask:
Miss
Christie
the
Main
Street
crossing.
B
Ribbon
cutting
all
right
thanks
and
then
the
other
one
I
have.
This
may
be
a
Administration,
a
crucial
Street.
We
grind
it
up
across
the
street
over
by
mayor
Mahoney's
and
we
just
I
think
we
need
a
little
pavement
on
it.
Is
there
a
time
frame
or
we.
J
Just
asked
about
that
open
bids
on
our
new.
You
know
we
had
issues
with
our
original
asphalt
contractor
and
we
had
to
cancel
that
contract
and
we
had
to
go
out
to
bid.
We
received
bids
on
that
on
the
26th
I
think
of
this
month,
at
whatever
that
Wednesday
is
that
week
and
so
we'll.
That's
those
that's
first
on
the
list
as
soon
as
we
can
get
those
bids
open
and
that
contract
executed.
K
Yeah
I
just
want
to
I
know
it's
on
the
consent
agenda.
I
just
I,
don't
want
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
the
the
issue
on
the
consent
agenda,
but
it's
j.
It's
the
lights
at
the
dog
park,
I'm
concerned
that
we're
moving
forward
with
the
lights
in
the
dog
park
that
people
are
going
to
think
that
we
are
putting
dogs
before
children
because
we
haven't
gotten.
We
haven't
publicly
expressed
a
plan
to
handle
the
lighting
at
the
Pop's
Ferry
facilities.
Can
can
you
just
Express
what
we
plan
to
do?
L
L
K
D
D
Right
and
the
29th
is
the
fifth
Tuesday
in
August,
so
we
we
have
a
Tuesday
that's
available
for
that,
even
though
we
don't
have
a
council
meeting
my
con.
My
concern
is
that
a
we,
the
council,
needs
to
schedule
that
workshop
and
get
it
up
and
going
so.
We
can
act
on
these
revisions,
I
think
because,
as
I
recall,
there's
any
any
agreements
or
I
don't
know.
If
that's
the
right
word
that
occurs
Within
so
many
months
of
its
passage
or
something
is
not
going
to
affect
those
events.
N
And
we
have
I
think
we
basically
have
somewhat
of
an
agreement
or
consensus
over
the
last
revisions
we
made
between
the
major
special
event
type
groups,
so
I'll
get
that
up
and
running
and
get
that
I
mean.
D
It
could
be,
it
could
be
a
quick
Workshop.
I
know
there
were
some
from
established
groups.
There
were
some
tweaks
you
made
in
speaking
with
them,
and
we
just
all
need
to
be
on
the
same
page,
we'll
schedule
that
okay,
thank
you,
so
Mr
President
at
some
point,
the
sooner
the
better.
The
the
only
other
thing
I
have
to
announce
is
I
have
award
meeting
Wednesday,
September
13th
and
you
don't
have
to
live
in
my
ward
to
attendance.
D
It
doesn't
cost
you
anything
to
come
scream
at
me
if
you,
if
you're
upset
with
your
accounts
when
you
come
scream
at
me,
but
anyway,
that's
out
there
Wednesday
September
13th
at
six
o'clock
at
the
Snyder
Center
and,
of
course
the
Public's
welcome.
Thank
you.
That
concludes
my
comments.
H
Thank
you,
Mr
Gladden.
Thank
you,
Mr
President.
First
I
would
like
to
Echo
what
councilman
Lawrence
recognizing
Bob
Fell's
passing
as
he
mentioned.
He
was
worked
for
the
city
of
Biloxi.
He
was
a
Air
Force
vet
and
a
member
of
the
KC's
fourth
degree.
H
If
I
recall
and
I
sat
beside
him
every
year
during
the
KC
fantasy
football
and
that
that
sucker
we
had
an
auction
league
and
it
seemed
like
he
always
had
a
couple
more
dollars
than
I
did
to
get
the
quarterback
that
I
wanted.
But
anyway
we
met
with
his
family
today
and
we
laughed
and
cried
with
him
a
little
bit
and
and
I'll
join
I
think
it's
appropriate
for
councilman
Lawrence
to
make
the
motion
to
to
recess
our
meeting
in
memory
of
Bob.
H
Once
we
conclude
these
proceedings,
the
other
thing
getting
back
to
business
in
ward,
6,
destinated,
Plantation,
I
know
I
spoke
to
Billy
Ray
last
week,
but
I'm
getting
calls
from
the
owner
on
a
drainage
issue.
That's
been
lingering
for
a
little
bit
more
time
than
it
should
I
hope
we
can
have
a
resolution.
He's
asked
me
to
call
him
back
with
an
update.
H
This
afternoon,
so
Mike
I'll
get
with
you
and
maybe
give
an
appropriate
answer
and
get
with
director
and
and
give
him
an
appropriate
answer.
Later
today,
I'd
like
to
also
recognize
I
appreciate
the
paving
of
Eden
Place
and
Paradise
Lane.
H
It
looks
beautiful
getting
a
lot
of
compliments
from
the
residents
they're
saying
they
enjoy
driving
down
their
street
and
it's
nice
and
smooth,
and
what
a
city
of
Biloxi
Street
should
look
like
I'd
like
to
also
thank
the
director
of
engineering
for
adding
Audubon
to
the
list
of
streets
to
be
paved
as
it
works
up
the
priority
list.
First,
let's
see
I
do
want
to
talk
about.
We
have
something
on
the
agenda
today
and
it
relates
to
the
charter
boats.
H
We
had
an
item,
a
ordinance
that
was
on
our
agenda
the
last
several
weeks.
If
not
the
last
month,
we
had
a
first
reading
to
give
people
time
to
look
at
it.
I
apologize
to
all
the
charter
boat
captains
for
not
being
notified
of
that
meeting
that
it
would
affect
you.
We
just
made
an
assumption
that
someone
in
your
organization
would
see
it
and
that's
why
we
have
a
first
reading
to
give
time
for
public
input.
H
H
My
family
was
in
the
net
making
business,
and
so
we
we
know
a
lot
of
the
shrimpers
and
they
asked
that
we
that
I
consider
making
an
amendment
to
keep
the
fishing
fleet
at
the
three
dollars,
a
foot
which
I
made
that
recommendation
and
it
did
pass
four
to
three,
and
so
we
we,
we
actually
extended
the
debate,
an
extra
meeting
than
we
normally
do,
but
we
do
have
a
mechanism
to
correct
it
and,
after
speaking
to
several
of
you,
the
president
and
one
of
the
council
members
have
co-authored
an
ordinance
to
discuss
keeping
those
rates
at
three
dollars
and
I.
H
Think
it's
a
first
reading
today,
right,
Mr
President.
So
no
action
may
not
be
taken
today
other
than
having
the
first
reading
and
then
at
our
next
meeting,
we'll
debate
and
we'll
vote
on
that
measure.
H
But
I
did
want
to
get
that
out
there
and
we
appreciate
we
love
you
all
very
much
and
we
recognize
what
y'all
do
for
tourism
and
which
I'll
do
for
the
economy
in
Biloxi
and
your
voices
are
not
going
to
go
unnoticed,
and
hopefully
we
can
have
some
future
dialogue
to
talk
about
the
amenities
and
upgrades
and
improvements
that
you
need
in
your
Marina
and
your
and
the
docs
that
make
your
work
in
your
job
easier
and
with
that.
That
concludes
my
report.
A
Thank
you.
I
have
a
just
a
couple
of
things:
I'd
like
to
recognize
our
public
works
department.
I
know
that
we're
short-handed
but
they've
been
mowing
a
lot
of
grass
in
Ward
7
lately,
and
it
looks
a
lot
better
appreciate
that
I'm
Christy
on
watch
Fayard
did
we
ever
get
anything
squared
away
on
that
bridge?
I
know
that
we
don't
have
a
Paving
contractor
in
place,
but
getting
it
to
where
it's
not
tearing
people's
cars
up
they're.
J
A
Up
yeah,
just
just
if
even
if
we
have
to
just
keep
filling
it
in
until
that
contractor
gets
in
place,
it's
it's
pretty
bad,
so
people
are
complaining
and
that's
all
I
have
on
that.
Then
the
water
sewer
projects,
I
know
that
we
have
both
of
those
are
coming
to
a
close
I.
A
But
if
we
can
just
make
sure
that
the
contractor
does
everything
they're
supposed
to
do
before
we
write
on
that
as
far
as
filling
in
the
ruts
and
and
the
holes
and
putting
grass
where
it's
supposed
to
go
and
all
those
things
we
have,
we
have
the
one
on
Shriners
and
then
the
one
on
Lorraine
Road,
so
those
two
and
then
Peter
and
Sherry.
If
I
could
talk
to
y'all
after
the
meeting
today-
and
that's
all
I
have
with
that,
we'll
now
move
to
our
policy
agenda.
A
I'm
sorry
I'm,
going
to
skip
the
citizen
comments.
Now
we'll
now
move
to
Citizen
comments.
We
have
a
total
allotted
time
of
45
minutes.
Each
resident
gets
three
minutes
to
speak
when
you
come
forward.
If
you
will
please
sign
in
on
the
paper
at
the
desk
and
state
your
name
and
address
prior
to
speaking
I'm,
going
to
start
on
my
left
side,
your
right
side.
If
anyone
on
my
left
side,
your
right
side
would
like
to
speak,
please
come
forward.
A
O
O
No
I've
been
working
closely
with
Chief
geyser
and
with
Mr
abide,
and
you
have
some
excellent
paramedics
that
work
on
your
fire
department
and
there's
a
lot
of
times
when
they
respond
to
calls
patient
might
need
morphine
fentanyl
Demerol
for
pain,
whether
it
be
from
a
myocardial,
infarction
or
some
kind
of
trauma
and
the
process
of
of
purchasing
drugs
and
keep
storing
them
and
having
a
medical
director
as
quite
laborious.
Amr
has
that
assistant
in
place.
O
We
have
for
many
years,
and
it's
really
pretty
easy
for
us
to
be
able
to
supply
those
narcotics
to
the
paramedics
at
the
Fire
Department
chief
geyser
has
demonstrated
to
me
that
they
have
mechanisms
in
place
to
keep
up
with
every
drop
of
Narcotics
that
they
have
in
their
elaborate
forms
that
have
to
be
used
every
time
they
administer
narcotics.
We.
O
That
will
keep
up
with
that.
We
will
supply
those
to
the
to
the
city
at
no
charge.
Only
the
people
that
are
licensed
paramedics
in
the
state
of
Mississippi
will
be
allowed
to
administer.
Those
I
I
think
it's
a
good
process,
long
long
overdue.
P
and
the
little
presentation
I
have
for
you
all
today,
I
have
it
highlighted
for
everyone
number
one.
Tourism
is
a
lifeblood
of
the
Mississippi
Gulf
Coast
and
Regional
counties.
That's
amazing,
number
two.
After
covid
Mississippi
Coast
was
awarded
3.4
million
dollars
by
the
tourist
Recovery
Act
fund
to
trf.
That's
amazing
and
it
went
a
long
ways
for
the
Tri-County
city
of
Biloxi,
all
of
our
charter
boat
industry
and
everything.
P
So
when
you
flip
the
page
over
the
main
thing
that
it
would
really
need
to
focus
on
After
covid,
we
receive
apparently
14.2
million
visitors
in
that
year
after
we
drove
that
with
the
rest
of
the
coast.
Very
proud,
second,
is
a
total
revenue.
Apparently
in
tourism
is
1.81
6
billion
dollars.
That's
amazing!
P
We
all
have
to
Pat
ourselves
on
the
back
this
Council,
the
mayor,
everybody.
We
drive
it
all
together,
the
shrimpers,
the
hamburgers,
the
the
vendors
on
the
beach,
that's
taking
110
degrees,
putting
out
kayaks
and
paddle
boards.
It's
still
the
same.
We
are
still
striving
to
be
the
best
better
than
Orange
Beach
better
than
Destin.
That's
what
we
want.
P
We
want
to
know
that
everybody
knows
that
the
Mississippi
Gulf
Coast
and
the
City
of
Biloxi
has
strove
to
be
the
best
in
the
country
number
two
outdoor
activities,
I
have
it
online
that
would
be
Charter
golf
shrimping
boats.
They
still
come
and
buy
shrimp
from
everywhere
up
Highway
49
through
the
West
kind
of
number.
One
question
number
two
highlighted:
75
percent
is
repeat:
customers,
that's
what
I,
how

A
P
Thank
you
all
for
having
me
today
and
I
appreciate
y'all's
voice
for
this
decision
that
was
coming
up.
Thank
you
guys.
Q
At
the
end,
first
I'd
like
to
say
thank
you
Council
and
mayor
for
allowing
us
to
have
a
public
comment
for
the
record.
My
name
is
Farah.
Downey
f
is
in
Frank
a-r-r-a-h
last
name,
Downey
d-o-w-n-e-y,
first
and
foremost,
I
come
to
you
as
a
daughter
of
the
Gulf
Coast
yeah.
Q
It
apparently
resides
in
Reno,
Nevada
and
I
spend
my
life
back
to
my
community,
making
us
proud
out
there.
You
just
don't
know
yet
I'm
on
the
Silver
State
Fair
Housing
Council,
as
a
secretary
I,
was
appointed
by
the
mayor
of
Reno
to
a
blue
ribbon
committee
regarding
homelessness
and
I,
have
a
program
that
I've
developed
that's
in
contract
with
the
Reno
Housing
Authority
directly
regarding
homelessness
and
eviction
prevention.
So,
if
there's
any
time
that
I
could
be
of
service
in
my
information
that
I
could
be
an
expert
in
that
field.
Q
Tl
I
would
love
to
do
that
before
I.
Get
to
why
I'm
here,
because
I
about
have
a
minute
and
50
seconds
left
I
would
like
to
immortalize
some
of
my
family
members
that
have
lived
loved
stood
by
this
coast
and
passed
here
so
we'd
like
to
start
with
Theron
James
Shoemaker
goes
by.
Jimmy
was
my
Uncle
Jimmy
Judith
and
Franklin,
who
was
mine,
Dede
Alan,
Big,
L,
Miller,.
Q
And
I
take
care
of
my
family
financially
from
where
I
can
but
I'm
here
asking
you
as
my
family.
That
just
doesn't
know
me
yet.
I
need
some
sort
of
resource
to
help
cremate.
My
mother,
her
husband,
is
a
disabled
veteran
who
has
a
34
year
old,
disabled
special
needs,
son
who
lives
at
home,
and
they
live
on
on
a
very
humble,
humble
income,
and
now
it's
paid
quite
a
bit,
but
I
need
help
to
help
them.
Q
In
my
Mother's
Finest
final
expenses
and
I've
reached
out
and
I've
looked
on
the
internet
to
see
what
kind
of
resources
here
and,
if
I
know
anything
with
the
mayor
of
Reno.
Being
my
best
friend
I
know
that
it's
to
reach
out
to
y'all
that
you
know,
if
there's
anything
out
there,
that
you
may
be
able
to
point
me
in
the
right
direction.
Q
She
is
still
currently
at
the
hospital
and
we
need
to
have
some
sort
of
directive
and
I
just
look
to
you
for
help
and
I
want
to
say.
Thank
you
again.
I
offer
my
services
as
my
expertise
field
in
the
future.
I
will
leave
my
information
with
the
Madam
Clerk
and
if
anybody
could
get
a
hold
of
me
with
anything,
I'd
really
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
so
much.
A
B
R
This
one
is
a
little
different.
What
this
is.
This
is
a
property,
that's
just
to
the
west
of
Ocean
Club
and
it's
a
long,
narrow
piece
of
property
and
what
they're
proposing
to
do
is
to
build
an
apartment
complex
there
it'll
be
144
units,
12
buildings
and
the
case
actual
case
for
the
project
is
going
to
Planning
Commission
this
week,
but
before
they
could
go,
they
needed
to
have
the
property
subdivided.
R
If
you'll
look
at
the
packet
you'll
see
that
the
very
front
part
they're
cutting
off
of
29
000
square
foot
piece
on
the
front.
This
was
required
by
their
insurance
company,
because
that
piece
of
property
is
in
the
velocity
flood
zone
and
they
wanted
them
to
separate
the
velocity
flood
zone
piece
from
the
part
that
will
actually
be
developed.
So
it
is
a
minor
subdivision
requirement,
we're
just
splitting
it
into
two
pieces,
but
it
is
going
to
be
a
good
project.
So.
D
Question
Mr
griel,
so
we're
not
talking
about
the
smaller
parcel
these
units
did
you
say
they
were
going
to
be
12
buildings,
12
buildings
yesterday.
I
R
I
R
Sir
well
there's
some
single-family
Lots
back
there
at
the
very
north
end
of
this
property,
but
it
goes
all
the
way
back
to
the
same
distance
that
the
Ocean
Club
property
goes
back.
So
it
is
a
very
deep
piece
of
property.
We.
I
R
R
They
actually
have
they'll
have
an
entrance
coming
in
on
the
west
side
of
this
property
that
we're
talking
about,
but
they
also
have
a
cross-access
agreement
with
the
property
next
door,
where
the
Villas
at
Ocean
Club
are
located,
so
they
can
come
out
directly
on
the
Highway
90
or
they
can
go
over
onto
that
property
and
come
out
all
right.
Thank.
I
E
A
I
I
O
To
be
delivered
directly
to
AMR,
we
have
a
medical
control
physician
who
has
to
sign
for
those.
You
have
mostly
pain
medications,
but
you
also
have
seizure
medications,
Valium
versus
things
like
that,
so
those
are
all
scheduled
drugs
and
you
have
to
have
a
physician
affiliated
with
the
agency
in
order
to
do
that
and
to
save
the
city
from
having
to
get
your
own
DEA
license.
Since
we
already
have
a
working
relationship
with
the
fire
department,
we've
done
it
before.
O
We
can
just
issue
a
quantity
to
the
fire
department,
we'll
do
periodic
inspections
to
make
sure
that
they're
all
accounted
for
and
they
have
to
fill
out
a
form
every
time
a
dose
is
given
and
for
the
for
the
years
we've
never
lost
any
of
the
medications
and
I
feel
very
comfortable
after
meeting
with
their
paramedics
and
his
leadership
team
that
that
they're
going
to
do
the
right
thing
and
make
sure
that
they're
protected
properly.
O
They
have
to
call
in
to
medical
control
hospital
and
to
get
a
physician
to
order
the
medication
use
by
cell
phone
by
radio
to
the
hospital
and
the
doctor
orders
the
medication
and
then
the
doctor
has
to
sign
that
they
did
order
the
medication
and
then
the
medic
has
to
prove
that
it
was
administered
if
they
don't
give
the
whole
dose
it
has
to
be
wasted.
There
has
to
be
a
witness
that
sees
them
wasted,
and
all
of
that
has
to
be
documented.
O
I
These
I'm
gonna,
actually
on
these
or
I,
know
t.
I
T
E
I
Right
are
they
doing
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
people
complaining,
they're,
not
finishing
up
thing:
they're,
not
fixing
the
profit,
the
way
it's
supposed
to
be
when
they
leave.
Where
are
we
out
with
that,
because
I
know
you've
been
out
a
bunch
of
times
with
him
and
you've
been
meeting
with
the
mayor,
trying
to
get
that
straight.
T
Sir
we've
been
meeting
with
the
mayor
and
James
knee
case
of
knee
case
Brothers
Construction
Company
every
Friday
here
at
City
Hall,
one
of
the
big
Focus
that
the
mayor
has
right
now
is
to
get
all
the
properties
East
of
Oak
Street
and
the
roads
ready
for
final
surface
asphalt.
T
The
last
two
inches
in
fact,
I
met
with
property
owner
yesterday
over
on
Howard
and
Pine
Street
brought
the
contractor
out
there
just
after
to
show
them
where
they
need
to
make
better
improvements
on
cleaning
up
the
right
of
way,
putting
back
some
filled
material,
getting
it
ready
for
grass
and
things
like
that.
Another.
T
N
T
When
we
get
that
right
of
Entry
back,
if
he
does
not
do
it,
then
I'll
make
recommendation.
The
council
withhold
his
payments.
He.
I
I
know
an
attorney:
mom
was
the
Harrison
County
that'd,
be
what
is
it
too?
Yes,.
L
Councilman
Harrison
County
is
preparing
to
submit
a
grant
request
under
restore
Act
for
some
miles
of
concrete
Boardwalk
and
we
are
piling
on
and
I
have
asked
that,
the
the
that
you
see
it
on
the
thing
between
the
dead
between
Porter
and
Saint
Francis.
It
would
be
added
to
that
Grant
request
in
the
in
the
exhibit.
You
can
see
the
dollar
value
estimated
dollar
value
of
our
request.
I
think.
I
But
when
you
get
down
to
like
Miramar
cages,
everybody
got
that
five
or
six
feet
high
than
a
highway.
That's
why
it
floods
all
the
time.
Do
we
need
to
do
they
have
to
remove
that?
Or
can
we
request
that
you're
gonna
build
a
boat
walk
all
the
way
down
to
the
middle
part
of
the
casino
I
mean
the
restaurants
down
there
and
you
got
to
get
rid
of
that
sand
and.
I
You
know
I
know
what
you're
saying
we
stopping
at
St
Francis
I'm,
just
saying
what
are
you
doing
all
this?
This
is
the
time
to
get
them
to
do
things.
Let's
see,
if
they'll
remove
that
sand,
it
was
piled
up
there
by
one
of
the
the
charters
or
Chambers
did
that
a
long
time
ago.
All
it
does
is
flood
hallway
90..
F
But
down
the
road
yeah
we've
got
probably
another
4
000
more
feet
to
add
from
from
the
holy
land
from
Saint
Francis
all
the
way
to
rodenberg,
and
that
would
be
in
the
next
phase
and
that's
where
you
what
you're
talking
about?
What
will
we
do
there
right?
But
we
don't
have
the
answer
to
that
question.
Yet
we're
just
trying
to
get
it
from
Porter
Avenue
all
the
way
and
do
some
combinations
of
of
outfall
too.
F
As
we
ask
for
things,
but
in
this
phase
it
should
get
us
from
Porter
Avenue,
all
the
way
complete
to
I
think
Saint
Francis,
but.
I
The
other
thing
do
we
have
to
request
Irish
County
to
ask
them
to
do
that.
Oh
partner
with
them
to
get
it
done.
Yeah.
F
F
U
D
Mr
Tisdale
yeah
two
things
going
back
to
the
boardwalk.
It
would
be
nice,
you
know
we
got
two
gaps
between
the
bees,
Road
and
the
Broadwater,
and
then,
of
course,
at
the
Broadwater
you
get
on
the
boardwalk
behind
the
restaurants.
Those
two
gaps
would
be
a
little
less
than
the
length
of
what's
being
proposed
and
you
would
have
completed
the
Westerly
section.
We
feel
a
bit
neglected
on
this
Boardwalk
thing.
We
don't
have
any
pretty
wave
structures
covering
the
the
drainage
yeah.
S
D
To
want
to
point
that
out,
just
because
I
wish
we
would
be
working
in
that
section,
rather
than
a
little
a
little
farther
to
the
east.
Now
moving
on
to
item
a
moving
on
to
item
a
moving
on
to
item
May,
which
deals
with
the
mitigation
ratio.
No,
really
it's
a
recognizing
funds
for
the
tree
mitigation
fund.
Thirty,
two
hundred
dollars
from
Ray
Woolrich
on
big
play,
entertainment
and
my
concern
there
is
that
the
mitigation
ratio
for
protected
trees
is
two
to
one.
U
V
D
D
V
D
V
D
V
D
F
Me
respond
to
that
yeah.
There
was
no
elect
and
to
to
this
thing
the
the
Covington
engineering,
which
is
administering
what
they
did
they
were,
you
know
actually
dictated
to
us
on
where
their
priorities
were
with
regard
from
east
to
west
and
west
to
east,
and
definitely
you
know
whether
it's
on
our
nickel
or
this
nickel.
F
You
know,
that's
certainly
the
next
logical
place,
and
we
talked
about
this
many
a
time,
but
again
it's
about
a
million
dollars
a
mile
and
and
again
this
grant
was
sort
of
do
we
want
it
or
not,
and
we
had
no
options
on
where
we
need
to
do
this
and
the
same
thing
with
regard
to
the
the
grants
that
there
may
be
opportunities
to
to
combine,
you
know
outfall,
so
it's
all
kind
of
wrapped
in
the
same
thing,
but
we
will
be
pursuing
getting
from
go
Mesa
or
thailands
or
or
any
of
those
other
things
that
may
pop
up
it
just
popped
up
or
we
didn't
have
a
choice
on
where
it
was
going
to
go.
D
D
D
D
F
D
Right
so
I'll
I'll
talk
with
my
supervisor
in
the
near
future,
the
other.
The
other
item
was
dealing
with
the
tree
mitigation
and
and
again,
if
we're
knocking
down
protected
trees,
the
current
ratio
is
two
to
one.
So
if
we
knock
down
a
hundred
year
old
oak,
it's
going
to
cost
you
those
mitigation
trees,
protected
species
about
250
bucks.
Each.
We
knock
one
of
those
100
year
old
trees
down,
not
a
problem.
We're
going
to
get
a
500
bucks
for
the
mitigation
I
sure
wish.
D
We
would
consider,
as
a
council
increasing
the
mitigation
radio
ratio
for
what
it
is.
That's
I
only
raise
it
just
to
raise
everybody's
Consciousness
on
that.
That
concludes
my
comments.
Thank
you.
R
The
Woolrich,
RW
and
Company
did
remove
two
trees
there,
but
the
trees
that
they're
replacing
them
with
are
eight
hundred
dollars
a
piece,
the
amount
they're
paying
into
mitigation.
So
we
remove
two
trees,
we're
getting
four
trees,
quality
trees
at
eight
hundred
dollars,
a
piece
and
that's
how
we
did.
We
come
up
with
the.
R
R
D
I
I
still
think
the
mitigation
ratio
is
low
and
the
larger
these
mitigated.
Trees
are
and
Zach
can
correct
me
if,
if
he
likes
the
larger,
they
are
the
the
higher.
The
mortality
rate
is
just
hard
to
to
plant
big,
more
mature
trees,
but
anyway,
that's
I.
Think
I've
concluded
my
comments
again
from
maybe
the
second
or
third
time,
but
I'm
done.
Thank
you.
D
A
R
K
R
We've
been,
we've
been
working
on
this
property
for
a
long
time.
This
is
a
property
next
to
the
Coalville
grocery
on
Lorraine
Road
and
the
owners
came
in
and
met
with
me
two
years
ago,
although
we
had
been
working
on
the
property
a
lot
longer
than
that
came
in
and
met
with
me,
they
were
going
to
try
to
do
something.
They
did
sell
one
of
the
trailers
that
was
on
the
property
that
was
in
sellable
condition,
but
the
others
are
not
they're
in
they're
in
bad
shape.
So.
R
K
Creole
I
believe
we
need
to
take
a
vote
on
that.
Okay,
on
that
motion.
B
K

furniture,
refinishing
and
stuff
like
this
I'm.
Also
a
retired
electrician
I've
got
tools
and
everything
else.
W
W
Being
can't
I
can't
afford
to
pay
for
storage,
I've
got
one
storage
unit
already
and
I
had
bankruptcy.
W
W
Great
picture
of
a
workshop
area
and
going
back
into
the
back
I've
maintained
these
stairs
for
five
years,
and
nobody
said
a
thing
they're
anchored.
W
W
I've
got
a
lathe,
two
drill,
presses
I,
don't
have
room
to
work.
These
are
my
workshops
and
pictures.
Don't
do
justice
because
I've
been
trying
to
sort
through
my
stuff
put
it
in
a
sequence,
because
every
now
and
then
I
get
a
job.
I
work
for
people,
but
I
I
don't
have
an
income
to
buy
a
share
to
make
it
look
perfect.
W
The
tents
they've
been
through
four
major
storms
and
they
haven't
blown
away
yet
they're
anchored
and
each
joint
in
those
tents
are
screwed
together,
so
they
can't
blow
apart.
I
had
one
the
first
year
and
it
demolished
it
and
I
learned
from
that.
But
for
five
years
now
this
is
the
first
time
I've
had
a
problem
with
it
and
oh
okay.
The
pictures
look
like
John,
but
they're,
not
I've
got
two
bosses,
four
dimensions.

R
R
That
any
structure
that's
erected
in
the
city
has
to
meet
150
mile
an
hour
winds.
These
structures
don't
meet
it
and
the
danger
there
is
if
it
gets
Blown
Away
it
blows
over
into
a
neighbor's
property
and
causes
damage
for
them.
That's
the
reason
that
everything
that
comes
in
has
to
be
permitted
to
meet
those
150
mile
an
hour
winds.
These
were
obviously
erected
with
no
permians.
R
W
Yes,
yeah,
so
okay
I
didn't
intend
for
him
to
be
permanent,
but
each
one
of
them
has
an
angle.
This
long
on
each
front.
R
There's
a
there's,
a
solid
fence
around
it.
It
goes
around
the
back
of
the
property
so
from
a
visibility
standpoint.
You
can't
really
see
what's
over
in
there,
but
this
obviously
came
in
as
a
neighborhood
complaint
and
when
our
people
went
out
to
investigate
Mr
Connolly
did
allow
them
to
go
in
and
look
to
see
what
what
all
he
had
back
there.
You
know,
but
from
our
standpoint
it
either
meets
coder.
It
doesn't
meet
code
and
in
this
case
these
structures
don't
meet
the
building
code.
R
The
tents
and
then
it
was
also
written
up
for
trash
and
debris
there
too
I
don't
want
to
sound
heartless
here,
I
mean,
but
you
know
it's.
Our
job
is
to
make
sure
that
it's
code
compliant
and
it's
just
not
so
well.
W
W
R
Yes,
sir,
and
you
know
clean
up
clean
up
the
yard
wow.
W
I
E
S
B
R
Well,
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
State
the
obvious
here
but,
like
I
say
the
the
yard
is
covered
with
these
tents,
and
there
are
a
lot
of
things
underneath
these
tents
that
we
write
other
people
up
for
that
just
need
to
be
removed.
You
know
in
in
his
opinion.
You
know
it
may
be
something
valuable,
but
when
you
look
at
the
pictures
closely,
a
lot
of
it
just
looks
like
junk
the
the
issue
with
the
swimming
pool
out
front
that
has
water
in
it.
R
The
ordinance
clearly
says
you
can't
have
a
container
out
there
that
has
water
in
it
like
this,
because
it
generates
mosquitoes
and
it
causes
a
health
problem
not
only
for
you
but
for
the
Neighbors
as
well.
So
there
are
a
lot
of
things,
that's
not
in
the
pictures
on
the
screen
that
are
in
the
pictures
that
you
can
see
close
up
and.
W
Y
Work
I
would
like
to
actually
ask
for
90
days.
You're
gonna
have
to
figure
something
out
to
put
your
things.
You
got
90
days
to
figure
it
out.
Unfortunately,
we
do
have
sympathy
for
you,
but
it's
against
the
code.
It
it
could
affect
other
people
in
the
neighborhood
and
yeah.
So
we'll
work
with
you
as
best
as
we
can.
You
got
90
days,
okay,.
H
H
W
A
We
have
we
have
a
motion
for
90
days
to
remove
the
tents
and
to
and
everything
else
to
be
corrected
immediately,
we'll
work
with
you.
We
don't
want
to
put
your
equipment
out
in
the
weather,
but
our
code
does
state
that
tents
aren't
allowed.
If
we
allow
them
for
you,
we
have
to
allow
them
for
everyone
else.
So
we
have
a
motion.
Do
I
have
a
second
okay.
I
A
R

A
R

The
old,
the
bar
on.

It's
the
one
that
has
the
water
keeps
coming
up
into
it
and
they've
done
nothing
to
okay,
all
right.
Anyone
here
to
speak
on
behalf
or
against
Cassandra

T
Good
afternoon
Council
right
now
we
have
957
000
on
the
Mississippi
PA
website
coming
from
Mema,
it's
in
step,
three
of
five
we're
waiting
on
the
governor's
authorized
representative
approve
it
and
that
moves
it
obviously
into
step
four,
and
then
it
usually
gets
into
our
accounts
10
to
15
days
after
that,
so
we
have
requested
Mima
to
ask
the
guard
to
approve
that
payment.
Do
you
have
anything
behind
it?
I'll
know.
After
this
Thursday
we
have.
Our
next
conference
call
with
Meme
and
FEMA
this
Thursday
all
right.
A
E
A
We'll
start
down.
A
A
I'm,
sorry,
no
council
reports.
We
have
public
agenda
45
minutes
any
citizen
comments
allotted
45
minutes,
total
three
minutes
each
person.
If
you
speak,
please
sign
in
and
state
your
name
and
address
when
you
come
forward.
I'll
start
on
my
left
side.
Anyone
on
my
left
side
that
wants
to
speak.
Please
come
forward.
J
AA
Hey
first,
let
me
thank
y'all
technology
now
is
entered
because
I
am
remote
and
I
do
apologize.
Carrie
tell
me
if
I'm
too
loud
on
the
microphone
in
there.
Okay,
first
I
just
want
to
thank
y'all
on
behalf
of
the
hovering
of
Irish
Society.
You
know
we
put
that
name
Irish
in
there.
So
everybody
knows
this
year
we
had
the
most
attendees
at
our
parade,
and
so
it
was
absolutely
fabulous.
AA
We
had
20
more
units
and
we're
asking
your
help
again,
because
what
was
so
special
last
year
or
the
special
needs
floats
we
were
allowed
to
have.
We
also
want
to
add
to
that
a
special
needs
Transportation,
so
they
can
come
to
the
parade.
There
are
other
organizations
that
need
help
and
they
just
can't
make
it
so
we
wanted
to
add
a
bus
to
that
to
bring
them
and
keep
our
special
needs
floats.
In
addition,
we
want
to
add
a
veterans
float.
We
did
have
veterans,
we
brought
them
in
and
they
attended
the
parade.
AA
But
what
we
really
want
to
do
in
some
ass
they've
asked
us
could,
is
it
possible
to
get
them
afloat?
We
would
absolutely
love
to
be
able
to
do
that
and
our
we're
going
to
be
marketing
this
again
and
really
to
the
locals
and
to
within
100
mile
radius
to
get
more
Biloxi
residents
at
our
event,
because,
what's
really
exciting,
we
are
actually
renting
the
space
from
the
city
across
the
hall
for
the
Irish
Malarkey
event.
Again,
we
will
have
jugglers
and
games
for
kids
and
Painters.
AA
Additionally,
we're
going
to
be
renting
other
items,
the
stage
and
things
from
the
city.
So
our
goal
is
to
bring
the
money
back
to
the
city
in
any
manner
that
we
can
we're
also
working
with
local
businesses
to
again
keep
residents
downtown.
They
were
very
happy
last
year
that,
after
the
parade,
they
said
they
had
more
than
they
had
ever
had
and
as
I
mentioned
previously,
we
even
had
people
setting
up
businesses
outside
of
their
business,
so
they
were
able
to
bring
more
money
into
their
business,
which
therefore
brings
more
Revenue
into
the
city.
AA
And,
let's
see
we're
our
agenda
is
super
family
friendly
and
that's
what
people
have
said
to
us
Celeste,
please
keep
it
family
friendly,
which
we
are
definitely
doing.
We
are
also
keeping
our
membership
reasonable,
so
the
most
residents
of
Biloxi
can
join
us
and
that
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you.
We
really
really
appreciate
your
support
again
because
our
goal
is
we
get
these
Bowl
members
in
there
it
grows
our
business
which
allows
this
Hibernian
to
support
themselves.
We
just
need
help
now,
so
we
can
keep
it
going.

Overall,
the
mobile
library
has
been
an
effective
tool
in
connecting
or
reconnecting
with,
residents
and
communities
who,
for
various
reasons,
may
have
disconnected
with
their
local
library
services
or
never
thought
to
engage
at
all
as
a
resident.
I
would
be
remiss
to
not
recognize
the
library
Administration
for
their
tireless
work
in
securing
this
grant
for
our
community.
The
Harrison
County
Library
System
consistently
seeks
ways
to
better
serve
the
community
and
ways
to
do
that.
With
external
funding.
AB
The
lumo
mobile
library
was
made
possible
by
a
276
thousand
dollar,
cares
act
Grant
from
The
Institute
of
Museum
and
Library
Services.
They
did
the
really
hard
work
in
making
sure
to
bring
these
resources
to
the
people
of
Biloxi.
The
library
is
for
everyone.
The
lumo
mobile
library
is
for
everyone,
and
we
have
designed
the
truck
and
structured
the
services
to
be
a
resource
for
all
ages.
Our
team
has
been
identifying
and
scheduling
stops
of
locations
that
have
a
real
need
and
a
desire
for
this
access.
AB
We're
bringing
this
truck
driver
directly
to
neighborhoods,
helping
children
who
wouldn't
be
able
to
participate
in
summer
reading
programs
at
the
local
branches
and
we're
stopping
by
festivals
near
the
beach
where
you
wouldn't
normally
expect
us.
The
utility
of
this
resource
is
seemingly
Limitless.

Hey

My

I
am

Crime,
Stoppers
and
I
also
serve
on
the
national
board
and
as
The
Advisory
board
for
the
state
I'm
sure.
Most
of
you
know
that
Crime
Stoppers
is
here
to
help
the
public
and
police.
There
are
many
times
when
the
public
want
to
say
what
they
know
about
a
felony
crime,
but
they
are
afraid
to
call
law
enforcement
directly
because
their
call
is
recorded
with
Crime
Stoppers.
X

He
had
been
beating
up
his
allegedly
his
girlfriend
and
his
child.
Of
course,
we
removed
the
information
that
could
identify
that
tipster
I,
sent
it
to
police
and
also
referred
them
to
the
Gulf
Coast
Center
for
non-violence,
which
I
know
that
you
worked
with
partner
with
just
today.
We
received
information
from
narcotics,
it's
not
your
city,
but
you
know
that
if
someone
is
selling
drugs
in
Hancock,
County
or
Jackson
County,
some
of
your
residents
are
buying
those
drugs.
X
It
was
an
arrest
in
Jackson
County,
which
was
a
meth
arrest
and
the
last
not
counting
that
arrest.
In
the
last
three
weeks
we
have
gotten
over
forty
thousand
dollars
worth
of
drugs
off
the
streets,
including
fentanyl,
so
people
are
are
speaking
up
about
drugs
and
their
neighborhoods,
calling
Crime,
Stoppers
and
also
other
violent
crimes.
X
We
also
help
tie
crimes
together
and
I'll.
Give
you
an
example.
There
was
a
stolen
trailer
that
a
white,
a
white
Ford
truck,
was
captured
on
camera.
We
put
it
out
on
social
media
Hancock.
X
Excuse
me,
Harrison
County,
Sheriff's
Department
asked
us
to
put
that
out
and
a
Hancock
County
investigator
saw
it
and
called
Harrison
County
and
said:
hey.
We
have
the
same
trucks,
stealing
trailers
where
we
are
so
we
are
able
Crime
Stoppers
is
able
to
tie
crimes
together,
that's
happening
up
and
down
the
coast.
We
cover
Seven,
Counties
and
I'm
here
to
ask
for
funding
for
Crime
Stoppers.
How
we
normally
receive
funding
is
assessments
whenever
a
violator
of
a
moving
violation
pays
their
ticket.

So
last
year
we
opened
our
One-Stop
shop
here
in
Biloxi,
which
is
our
walk-in
Center
for
individuals
who
have
experienced
any
type
of
interpersonal
violence
to
walk
in
the
door
and
say
I
need
help
and
that's
our
public
spacing
location,
and
it
is
also
something
that
we
are
going
to
use
as
our
family.
Justice
Center
model
that
we
have
proposed
to
you
guys
in
the
past
is
going
to
be
our
coordinated,
Community,
Response
Team
under
a
roof.
AD
On
top
of
that,
again,
we're
always
looking
for
ways
that
we
can
help
people
who
need
help.
We
are
working
with
a
local
developer
here
to
be
able
to
develop
some
affordable
housing
that
we'll
be
able
to
provide
so
a
affordable
place
for
people.
Who've
experienced
interpersonal
violence
and
they
don't
make
enough
money
to
afford
their
own
place
to
live.
We're
trying
to
build
something
here
in
Biloxi
to
allow
for
that
in
a
opening
place,
and
we
will
Design
this
program
like
our

Domestic
violence
is
rampant
in
our
community.

have
stayed
full

when

get
an
opportunity
this

want
to
beginner
stuff,
like
this.

we're
estimating
some
additional
Insurance
expenses.

That's
what
I

we
got
caught
a
little
bit
at
the
11th

when
we
were
talking
about
property
insurance,

we
also
discussed
the
possibility

it
around
to
to
not
just
one
primary
insurance
company
like
we
currently
do,
but
allowing
multiple
Insurance
representatives
to
see
if
they
can
quote
our
property
insurance
and
with
that
said,
I
I
do
believe.
If
we
kind.
H
Look
like
there
could
be
some
savings,
I
think
there's
some
hungry
providers
out
there
that
would
cut
their
other
fees,
which
we've
we've
seen
that
included
in
our
proposal
this
year,
when
we
had
to
sign
off
on
the
on
the
bottom
line,
it
includes
the
insurance
premium,
plus
those
other
fees
which
are
commissions
and
and
so
forth,
and
I
think
you
got
some
hungry
providers
out
there
or
Insurance
reps.
That
probably
would
give
us
a
more
competitive
quote.
H
So
that's
one
thing:
I
think
we
take
a
look
at
I
think
we
could
probably
lower
that
estimate
a
little
bit
and
that's
one
area.
That's
a
it's
a
big
big
ticket
item
for
us.
The
other
thing
are
we
planning
for.
AG
E
E
H
Mean
that's
what
I
have
for
other
departments
other
than
I
know?
We've
talked
about
our
Parks
and
Rec
and
there
was
a
painting
project.
I,
don't
know
if
that's
included,
if
we've,
if
we
had
the
resources
for
painting,
AJ,
Holloway
Sportsplex
buildings,
they're,
looking
a
little
worn,
do
we
have
enough
Mike
to
find
some
resources.
L
We
just
got
that
quote
in
that
a
day
ago:
okay
and
it's
not
in
the
budget
right
now.
Well,
we'll
so.
L
E
L
S
I
S
I
L
L
S
So
we've
dropped
the
We've
dropped
the
revenue
to
370.
I
L
Based
on
Diana's
best
look
at
where
we
stand
this
year.
That
said
sir
estimate,
it's
370.
AG
I
I
Going
to
collect
yeah,
no,
no,
you
get
it
in
less
than
4000
collection.
I'll
talk
about
the
cost
that
we
have
in
the.
I
S
AA
A
What
we're
projecting
to
bring
in
to
to
get
to
Mr
Lawrence
before
we
just
an
email
or
print.
A
Him
can
we
get
that
it's.
E
A
Have
is
well
I
have
two
actually
number
one.
You
said
that
we
cut
nine
hundred
thousand
dollars
out.
L
Something
to
that
tune
of
the
budget
correct,
correct.
A
lot
of
that
was
capital
capital.
L
A
A
Right
and
then
my
next
question
is
what
is
our.
A
Cash
balance
you
know
like
last
year,
I
think
it
was
like
eight
seven
or
eight
million
dollars.
What
are
we
projecting
our
cash
balance
to
be
at
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year?.
AG
A
Then
last
question
is:
what
do
we
have
added
in
the
the
parking
for
the
parking
garage
for
shucker
Stadium
into.
S
L
The
key
machine,
the
the
gate
working
and
the
team
players
have
cards,
so
they
can
get
come
and
go
yeah.
How.
L
A
The
coast,
all
these
events
285
spots
for
that.
I
That's
all
I
have
so
now
one
question
on
on
mg
and
Paul
yo
yo
selling.
E
A
A
Didn't
ask
for
anything
okay,
so
we're
going
to
start
with
Library
if
those
represent
the
library
would
come
forward
so
that
you
can
answer
any
questions
and.
AF
Have
okay?
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity.
I'm
Sarah,
the
director
of
the
Harrison
County
library
system
and
I.
Just
I
would
like
to
give
you
a
an
overview
of
some
of
the
things
we've
been
doing.
Sean
has
already
talked
to
you
about
lumo.
That's
one
of
our
big
initiatives
that
we
finally
got
rolling.
There
were
delays
because
of
covid
Supply
chains
and
so
forth.
What
we
really
feel
like
is
having
a
positive
effect
on
our
services
in
in
the
county,
and
we
have
several
stops
in
Biloxi
and
in
addition,
we
are
we're
seeing
our.
AF
We
copied,
you
know
kind
of
knock
things
down
for
everyone,
and
so
we're
bouncing
back
and
we're
really
pleased
to
see
that
our
visits
are
up
about
40
last
year
compared
to
the
previous
computer
use
of
about
75
and
checkouts.
Ever
all
of
those
those
measures
are
up.
In
addition,
for
summer
reading,
we
just
had
a
really
great
year.
We
had
1600
kids
and
teens
registered
that's
up
about
20
and
we
had
about
10.
M
AF
Kids,
kids
and
families
attend
our
programs
during
the
summer,
and
that
is
also
a
significant
amount
around
18.
So
that's
one
of
our
Key
Programs
throughout
the
year.
It
helps
kids,
keep
excited
about
reading
and
helps
them
avoid
the
summer
slide,
which
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
you
are
familiar
with
and
helps
them
keep
on
the
road
to
what
they're
going
to
need
for
future
success
in
school
and
in
life
as
well.
Our
story
times
are
also
going
really
strong.
We
do
story
times
throughout
the
year,
not
just
during
summer.
AF
Reading
Margaret
Sherry,
for
example,
Miss
Bree,
had
to
add
story
times
because
they
were
so
popular
and
she's
been
doing
and
all
of
our
staff,
but
there
they've
they've,
added
added
kids
programming
and
so
we're
very
proud
of
that.
Staff
has
been
working
hard
to
expand
programming
for
all
ages
because
we
feel,
like
one
of
the
roles
of
the
library,
is
to
be
a
community
center
and
to
bring
people
together
to
just
to
get
together
in
in
your
public
space.
AF
AF
AF
AF
Posts
that
they
make
of
the
historic
buildings
and
places
that
are
no
longer
here
and
I
think
that's
people
really
enjoy
that.
Just.
AF
We're
we're
able
to
announce
we
found
out
last
week,
but
the
local
history
department
has
been
awarded
a
national
competitive
Grant
from
the
from
the
National
Endowment
for
the
Humanities.
It's
about
forty,
eight
thousand
dollars
and
it's
geared
to
preserve
history
for
Kim
from
communities
that
are
threatened
by
catastrophic
weather
events
like
hurricanes
of
course
for
here.
M
M
AE
L
S
S
AF
To
Dover,
the
county
provides
the
largest
portion
of
our
funding.
They've
provided
a
little
over
a
million
last
year,
because
none
of
the
local
funders
revenue
is
sufficient
to
run
the
costs
like
Biloxi
costs.
Last
year,
a
little
over
a
million
to
run,
and
we
received
733
000
in
funds
from
the
city.
So.
AF
Each
one
of
our
cities-
past
Christian,
Gulfport
and
D'iberville
and
Biloxi
they
they
do
contribute
to
the
headquarters
functioning
because
that
we
have
a
headquarters.
You
know
like
me,
and
other
administrative
folks
in
the
county
pays
for
that
and
then
their
their
funding,
and
then
we
have
a
little
bit
of
State.
Funding
also
is
goes.
It
goes
to
support
the
gaps
there.
S
Know
because
you're
talking
about
because
733
000
last
year.
AF
I
I
AF
S
U
I
E
L
AF
A
lot
of
folks
who
do
not
have
transportation,
and
some
of
them
are
able
to
use
public
transport,
but
some
of
them.
You
know
they
really,
you
know
they're
elderly
and
they
they
really
value.
Having
or
they're
with
five
kids
running
around
with
five
kids.
An
extra,
however,
far
makes
a
big
difference
or
for
a
mom
with
her
kids
out
and
about
if
it's.
If
she
can
walk
there,
it
makes
a
difference
for
families
to
have
something
close.
A
E
A
K
K
AF
AF
No
maintenance
and
operations
would
be
Insurance
library
cards.
You
know,
electricity
bill,
those
kinds
of
things
so.
AG
AF
AF
AF
AF
Is
2
million?
This
is
from
2023,
so
that
would
have
been
a
little
bit
different
from
from
the
audit
from
2022.
AF
K
AF
Because
I
have
I,
have
the
audit
in
my
a
link
in
my
on
my
phone,
so
I
can
pull
it
up
and
we
can
look
at
it.
Gary's
magical.
AF
D
V
S
E
D
D
AF
We
have
folks
who
are
struggling,
I
I,
ask
for
feedback
I
ask
for
folks
if
they
wanted
to
come
and
speak
to
you
about
that
issue,
and
most
of
them
did
not
want
to.
For
understandable
reasons.
It's
it's.
It's
perhaps
embarrassing
to
talk
about
your
struggles
and
I
had
a
couple
anonymously
report
that
they're,
you
know,
they're
a
mishap
away
from
being
homeless.
Sure.
D
Really
sure
at
10,
15,
10
50
an
hour
I
can
understand
that
and
your
employees
face
the
same
in
increasing
costs
of
living
that
everybody
else
faces,
and
you
count
on
the
contributions
from
cities
right
to
help
obviously
run
the
libraries
you
serve.
Anybody
who
walks
in
the
door
anybody
the
halt,
the
Lang,
the
blind,
the
aggravating
the
homeless,
the
affluent
yes.
AF
Vary
from
location,
we
try
to
have
some
good
coverage.
Margaret
Sherry
has
one
night
open
until
eight.
You
know
on
Saturdays
we
close
at
four,
and
you
know
we
so,
but
we
or
open
most
places
around
nine
to
six
with
with
a
few
variations,
so
most
covers
most
of
the
day
and
and
has
a
little
bit
for
folks
who,
who
get
off
at
five
to
come
in,
see.
D
Okay,
I
would
you
know,
and
if
you
value
the
library
and
we'll
see
how
much
this
Council
values
the
library
with
with
what
the
contribution
will
be,
but
you
provide
a
service
and
there's
not
necessarily
I,
can't
think
of
any
other
than
book
fines,
some
sort
of
financial
return.
It's
because
you
provide
a
service
and
the
cost
of
that
to
provide
that
service
goes
up
every
year,
just
as
it
does
in
any
other
business.
D
H
Yeah
I
have
a
few
questions
or
Library
employees
or
their
cover
bond
insurance
or
anything
or.
H
AF
H
The
the
when
I
look
through
here,
there's
Library
other
that's
going
up
about
9
000
and
then
the
other
part
is
80,
something
thousand.
What
is
the
bulk
of
that
increase
of
80?
Something
thousand?
What
is
that
going
to.
AF
Raise
those
that
69
of
folks
who
are
under
12.50
I
mean
yeah
under
12.50
to
12
or
in
or
in
that
range
we
all.
We
did
figure
the
pers
into
our
our
last
quarter,
just
to
be
careful,
the
increase
that
may
it
may
not
happen,
but
that
that's
also
the
pers
increase
is
in
there
and
the
FICA
that
will
need
to
be
adjusted.
AF
H
Know
like
you're,
like
you're,
you
know
I'm
looking
at
non-departmental
and
if
I'm
looking
at
this
right,
nearly
50
percent
of
non-departmental
is
Library
System
close
to
fifty
percent
of
total
non-departmental.
Is
that
correct?
If
I'm?
Looking
at
this
correctly,
there's
Total
non-departmental
1
million
one
million
nine
seventeen
I?
Guess
they
because
you'll
move
the
insurance
out
that.
H
H
You
know
those
services,
in
fact,
in
when
we
were
looking
at
Public
Safety
Chief
Miller
commented
that
there
were
years
where
we
didn't
even
buy
cars
or
police
vehicles,
and
you
know
so
I'm
not
opposed
to
you
know
our
biggest
non-departmental
expenses
is
the
library
system
and
we're
committed
to
that
large
expense
to
to
try
to
make
the
library
system
successful.
What
is
your
total
ask
this
year
from
all
sources.
AF
The
total
ask
is
3
4
86
959,
that's
our
you
know.
That's
our
estimated.
We
have
not
talked
to
all
of
our
all
of
our
funders.
We've
talked
to
the
county
that
that
will
be
adjusted.
The
county
agreed
to
give
us
extra
funding
for
our
electronic
materials,
because
we
have
such
a
problem
keeping
up
and
our
we
only
spend
about
40
000
on
that,
whereas
Jackson
George
and
Hancock
and
Hattiesburg
and
other
peer
libraries
spend
about
double
so
they
they
agreed
to
add
that
in
to
what
is
on
on.
AF
AF
And
we
get
we,
we
do
receive
some
about
200
000
from
the
state,
and
that
includes
that
includes
we
we
get.
You
know
people
buy
copies
and
prints.
AF
AF
E
AF
H
2022.,
some
of
the
material
this
was
controversial
last
year
there
were
some
displays
that
were
similar
to
the
displays
from
the
previous
year.
Why
are
we
still
displaying
Children
books
that
depict
material
that
there
are
certain
people
in
the
community
that
it
it
offends
when
they
have
kids
that
are
coming
into
the
seminars
that
you're
mentioning
or
those
Book
Fairs
that
you
are
mentioning?
Why
are
we
still
doing
that?
I.
AF
Was
for
I
have
not
had
a
formal
complaint
from
any
Patron,
but
I
was
made
privy
to
some
photos
that
were
taken
and
the
children's
books
that
were
in
those
photos
did
not
have
they
had
a
one
of
them
had
a
rainbow
on
the
cover,
but
it
was
not
lgbtq
related
at
all.
It
just
had
a
rainbow
the
other
one
had
a
boy.
It
was
called
the
boy
with
flowers
in
his
hair.
It
is
not
lgbtq
related.
It
just
happens
to
be
a
boy
with
flowers
in.
H
AF
They're,
not
they,
they
do
have
any
content.
That
I
think
anyone
could
find
in
any
way
objectionable
that
all
the
books.
It
was
a
book
about
a
child
who
was
sad
and
there
there.
It
was
like
a
fantasy
right,
so
the
kids
hair
had
was
like
a
magic
person,
I,
don't
know,
and
their
flowers,
wilted
and
their
friends
made
them
feel
better
and
made
new
flowers
to
go
in
their
hair.
AF
H
I
appreciate
you
asking
the
question
almost
almost
again.
This
is
our
largest
commitment
and
expense
of
any
other
item
you
mentioned
earlier
that
the
benefit
of
having
so
many
libraries
is
so
we
can
touch
a
lot
of
people
to
have
access
to
some
services
and
we're
trying
to
understand
that.
How
do
you
accomplish
that
in
Gulfport,
one
of
the
biggest
largest
cities
in
the
entire
State,
and
they
only
have
two
correct
as.
AF
When
we
fund
that
well,
they
would
have
to
fund
that
we
do
see.
I
I
feel
like
Orange
Grove
is,
is
a
large
Library.
AF
So,
for
whatever
reason
people
go,
you
know
they
see
a
large
amount
of
traffic
and
I
think
it
would
be
better
provisioned
if
we
did
have
one
that
was
in
between
downtown
and
and
Orange
Grove,
but
they
just
because
of
the
amount
of
materials
and
activities
people
people
are
able
to
get
there,
but
I
feel
like
they're
people
who
aren't
and
we're
not
serving
as
well
as
we
could,
but
again,
I.
Don't
think
that
I'm
going
to
convince
Gulfport
to
spend
a
few
million
to
build
me.
AF
Another
library,
but
but
ideally
I,
would
love
to
do
that,
because
I
think
they're
people
who
are
missing
out
who
could
have
it
I
may
I
say
a
response
to
the
the
us
being
the
largest
part
of
the
non-departmental
okay.
AI
AI
I
just
appraised,
her
job
is
the
county.
My
job
is
What's
Happening
Here
in
the
city,
42
percent
of
all
of
the
chips,
sorry
42
of
all
of
the
checkouts
in
the
county.
These
are
physical
in
person.
Checkouts
happened
in
the
city
of
Biloxi.
AI
AI
AF
So
the
comment
that
I
was
going
that
I
would
like
to
make
is
I
know
we
are
in
the
non-departmental
and
I
feel
that
that
is
maybe
not
the
most
appropriate
place
for
us
to
be
because
you
could
award
millage
to
us.
It
is
approved
by
the
legislature
already
and
I
think
you
mentioned
that
the
budget
was
I
for
a
2005.
Was
the
budget
was
785
000
for
the
library
from
Biloxi?
AF
Of
course,
after
that,
after
Katrina
it
went
way
down
as
that's
understandable
and
at
some
point
it
got
to
around
695
and
it
stayed
at
6.95
for
over
a
decade,
and
so
when
I
got
here,
it
was
still
at
6.95.
I've
been
this
is
my
fifth
year
well,
this
I
think
this
will
be
my
sixth
budget
hearing.
But
anyway
the
cities
based
I
I
looked
at
your
audits
that
are
available
online
and
based
on
the
information
there
on
your
major
Revenue
sources.
AF
AF
H
Based
but
perhaps
there
could
be
other
sources
and
we
can
do
a
good
chunk
and
find
out
another
source,
but
here's
my
last
comment:
I
I
certainly
support
the
work
and
having
a
library
system
for
our
citizens
and
our
children
and
I've
volunteered
many
times
to
read
books
during
Christmas
and
and
and
that
sort
of
thing
and
I
will
continue
to
do
that
anytime.
You
need
that.
Thank.
AF
H
I
can
support
this.
You
know
there's
about
a
nine
thousand
dollar
ask
in
other
library,
and
somebody
said
there
was
an
AC
unit
that
needed
some
kind
of
repair
or
something
like
that:
I'm
just
struggling
supporting
another
80
000.
You
know
for
this,
for
this
ask
for
these
entry
level
positions
at
this
time
and
I'll
I'll
finish
that
that
concludes
my
questions.
Mr.
D
We
talked
about
books
and
displays,
of
course,
what
is
it?
The
first
amendment
and
Publishing
and
all
that
other
good
stuff,
but
there's
a
process
if
I
walk
in
the
library
and
I'm
offended
by
something
I
see,
there's
a
process
whereby
you
don't
need
to
elaborate
on
the
process,
but
I
remember
we
sort
of
had
this
discussion
earlier
and
that
is
there's
a
process.
D
So,
if
I'm
offended
I
ask
for
a
form,
I
fill
out
a
form,
there's
a
panel
or
a
board
that
reviews
this
and
makes
the
decision
and
will
get
back
to
me.
I
think
sometimes
it's
easier
for
me
to
take
a
picture
and
email
it
to
the
mayor's
office
or
to
politics
or
whatever,
that's
the
easy
thing
to
do.
But
if
I'm
really
that
offended
I
should
take
the
time.
Look
at
the
book
complete
the
form
and
wait
for
a
reply.
All.
D
S
V
D
Only
other
thing
I
I
wanted
to
mention
is
when
you
talked
about
the
costs
increasing
and
looking
through
the
CPI,
Consumer
Price
Index,
and
what
what
the
rate
of
inflation
is
in
the
last
I
believe
it's
the
last
five
years,
inflation
according
to
the
CPI,
has
gone
up
21.
Just
in
the
last
five
years.
In
the
last
10
years,
it's
gone
up.
A
total
of
31
in
the
figure
you
mentioned
earlier.
I
think
you
mentioned
the
year
was
2005
and
I
have
no
idea
how
much
it's
gone
up
since
then.
D
It
might
be
40
percent
and
I
know
we're
all
dealing
with
this
everybody's
dealing
with
this,
so
I
appreciate
the
job
that
you
do
under
the
circumstances.
I
just
wanted
to
remind
those
who
may
be
listening
or
watching
of
those
two
things.
AF
I
process
and
inflation
thing
I
would
add
to
that
that
if,
if
we
had,
if
we
had
grown
at
16,
I
think
that
maybe
already
said
this
I'm
sorry
or
we
would
be
asking
for
910
000.
That
is
how
much
16
would
have
been
based
on
our
budget
in
2005.,
so
we're
we're
well
below
that
at
8,
8
16..
I
I
I
I
I
I
And
that's
why
they
called
us
because
we
fund
you
so
to
people.
That's
the
taxpayers
have
a
problem
with
it.
Then
you're
gonna
have
a
problem
because
they're
going
to
go
to
Earth,
not
you,
you
filling
all
the
forms
you
want
to
have,
but
they
want
they're
going
to
count
the
mayor,
the
councilman
they're
going
to
talk
to
us
about.
Why
are
you
doing
that?
Why
are
you
taking
my
money
and
finding
something
like
that.
A
Okay,
so
I
have
a
couple
of
comments
and
then
we'll
move
to
the
next
next
number.
One
I
I
support
the
library
completely.
A
However,
as
Mike
said
while
ago,
he's
cutting
a
dump
truck
out
of
Public
Works
budget
and
we
have,
as
Kenny
stated,
police
vehicles
that
are
needed
that
we're
not
buying
enough
of
and
first
and
foremost,
the
public
safety
of
our
city
comes.
First,
we
have
to.
A
Second,
there
were
multiple
books
and
that's
not
for
a
discussion
right
now,
but
it
is
a
discussion
that
needs
to
be
had
because
last
year
we
were
assured
that
this
wouldn't
happen
again
and
I
have
the
pictures
as
well,
and
it's
not
it's
in
multiple
libraries
and
it's
multiple
books
and
these
things
we're
not
saying
they
don't
have
a
place
in
the
library
but
to
be
on
public
display
for
children
that
parents
do
not
want
those
children
to
see
those.
A
A
That
that's
really
all
that
I
have
because
everything
else
has
been
covered.
I'm
not
saying
I
won't
support
funding
what
y'all
are
asking
for,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
have
about
a
budget
that
has
to
be
balanced
and
I'm,
not
going
to
cut
one
of
our
essential
departments
to
to
fund
an
extra
eighty,
three
thousand
dollars
for
the
library
system.
If
it
comes
to
that
Miss
Newman,
you
said
you
had
a
question
or.
Y
S
AF
But
I
would
underline
that
if
you,
if
you
receive
comments,
please
ask
the
people
to
to
speak
to
us,
because
it's
most
helpful
for
us
to
address
it
in
a
in
a
comprehensive
way,
because,
as
I
think
Mr
Tisdale
mentioned,
there
are
First
Amendment
concerns
and
other
types
of
things
that
have
to
be
taken
into
consideration,
so
I
would
I
would
encourage
you
to
encourage
people
to
just
to
Philip
to
let
us
know
what
it
is
that
they
are
objecting
to
I
understand:
Mr
Barrett,
of
course,
I
appreciate
that
that
your
safety,
Public
Safety
and
fire
safety
and
those
sort
of
things
are
Paramount
for
any
any
City
or
any
funding
entity
and
I
hope
that
you
will
be
able
to
fund
them
as
well
as
us.
AF
If
we,
if
you
are
not
able
to
fund
us,
we
will
I,
we
will
have
to
have
future
discussions
about
what
what
branch
or
branches
that
you
would
like
us
to
close,
because
I
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
how
we
can
continue
to
to
operate
and
pay
people.
We
just
won't
be
able
to
keep
staff
and
we
will
not
be
able
to
open
because
we
won't
have
staff,
even
even
if
we
wanted
to,
but
I
think
that
is.
AF
That
is
the
point
where
we
are
that
if
we
can't
pay
people
a
living
or
at
least
a
semi-living
wage,
we
we
won't
be
able
to
to
keep
we'll
have
to
close
a
branch
to
fund
the
races
for
the
remaining
staff,
so
that
that
will
that
would
be
a
future
discussion.
But
I
hope
that
we
don't
get
there,
that
your
Revenue
projections
are
are
very
positive
and
that
we're
able
to
all
be
funded
in
in
a
way
that
is
adequate.
How.
D
Okay,
so
if
I
had
heart
again,
if
I
have
heartburn
about
a
book
that
my
son
is
bringing
home-
okay,
a
if
it's
a
small
child
I
should
be
in
the
library
with
my
child,
yes,
and
particularly
if
I
have
concerns
about
the
books
that
might
be
in
the
library
but
again,
rather
than
just
a
knee-jerk
reaction,
follow
the
process.
That's
what
it's
there
for.
Yes,.
AF
S
D
The
other,
the
other,
the
other
point
is
I,
think
we
all
want
to
fund
for
Public
Safety,
but
I
would
point
out
that
again
we're
behind
the
curve
and
paying
our
Law
Enforcement
Officers
compared
to
a
neighboring
City,
and
the
only
way
we're
going
to
make
a
bad
difference.
In
addition
to
some
of
these
other
services,
I,
don't
think
we're
going
to
grow
our
way
into
that
with
some
sort
of
without
some
sort
of
millage
increase.
D
H
D
AF
AE
It's
actually
up
a
little
bit
this
year,
Mr
Lawrence,
you
know
we've
kind
of
been
going
down
since
coven.
AE
We've
lost
quite
a
few
calves,
we're
down
about
50
calves
right
now,
but
from
last
year
to
this
year
the
number
of
caps
and
the
number
of
fares
dropped
off,
have
increased
a
little
bit.
We're
easing
up,
but
you
know
our
money
is
still
tight.
It's
and
it's
just
me
I,
don't
have
a
staff.
I
AE
You
know
just
got
a
small
office
in
the
airport,
the
little
bit
that
we're
asking
for
an
increase,
I
think
it's
like
30
I'm,.
M
U
I
AE
Sir-
and
that's
was
due
to,
of
course,
the
change
in
the
Pro
rata
share,
but
we,
the
our
commission
or
the
motor
vehicle
for
hire
commission,
voted
to
increase
our
budget
overall
and
to
request
a
little
bit
of
money
from
each.
You
know
split
through
the
three
cities,
but
Biloxi
would
go
from
the
last
year's
amount
up
to
35.2
this
year.
They
have
been
as
high
as
35-5
so
yeah,
but
we're
still
under
where
we.
AE
K
That's
I
do
have
a
question
and
it's
not
it's
really
not
about
funding
I'm,
more
curious
about
volume.
I've
noticed
just
as
a
consumer
that
I
can't
get
an
Uber
or
a
Lyft
at
all.
Have
we
seen
an
increase
of
drivers
because
the
Fallout
from
from
Uber
and
Lyft.
AE
No,
we
don't
I
I
I've
been
the
last
year,
I
could
say
I've
gotten
a
maybe
a
dozen
people
from
Uber
Lyft,
mostly
Uber
I,
think
there's
been
some
change
in
their
financial
structure
too,
as
far
as
what
they
charge
their
drivers
or
the
percentage
they're
taking
from
them.
But
you
know
we
just
we
have
a
big
turnover.
It's
just
a
consistent
turnover
with
drivers.
AE
K
E
I
AH
Thanks
for
allowing
us
to
be
here
considering
thank
the.
N
Z
S
Z
To
ask
you
for
our
little
patience.
We
want
to
give
10
minutes
to
kind
of
go
over
a
little
bit
of
updates
on
the
demographics
of
our
CTA
service
areas
and
some
of
the
statistics
and
then
we'll.
Z
Let
then
Kevin's
going
to
pick
up
from
there
and
go
into
the
details
of
the
actual
budget
request,
so
the
fixed
root
support
that
CTA
provides
on
the
coast
currently
supports
the
cities
of
Biloxi
Gulfport,
Ocean,
Springs
and
D'iberville,
and
we
also
provide
on-demand
Services,
which
there's
no
cost
Associated
to
to
the
cities
for
the
on-demand
Services,
as
they're
paid
for
by
the
various
entities
that
we
provide
that
service
to,
but
it's
throughout
Harrison,
Hancock
and
Jackson
counties,
and
this
would
be
things
like
working
with
medical
institutions
for
transporting
patients
or
from
other
similar
types
of
of
situations.
Z
This
year,
we're
projecting
and
we'll
do
over
700
000,
Riders
and
system-wide
in
the
in
the
fixed
route
service.
Fifty
percent
of
those
Riders
start
and
or
end
their
CTA
ride
in
Biloxi.
So
we
Biloxi
does
represent
the
largest
passenger
activity
for
us.
Nearly
75
percent
of
those
passengers
are
daily
Riders
I
mean
they're
totally
dependent
on
their
their
weekly
Transportation
on
CTA
95
90
of
those
don't
even
own
a
car.
Z
Z
Are
employed
or
retired?
So
it's
not.
We
have
it's
not
a
lot
of
unemployed
people,
but
there
are
14
of
unemployed
that
use
our
service.
Two-Thirds
of
the
writers
only
have
poverty
level,
income,
meaning
twenty
five
thousand
dollar
a
year
or
less
total
income.
That
to
me
was
it
was
a
shocking
statistic.
Z
Cta
is
basically
based
on
this
data
transporting
the
Working
Poor
in
our
community
and
at
the
time,
with
ongoing
shortage
of
affordable
labor,
we
are
helping
local
businesses
maintain
their
Workforce
of
our
service
and
greatly
this
year
we
got
the
highest
approval
in
our
in
the
writer
surveys
for
satisfaction
of
our
service
ever
recorded
at
95
this
year,
foreign.
Z
Specifically
for
fixed
service
turns
out.
We
provide
a
total
of
about
2.7
million
dollars
of
service
at
our
cost
to
the
city
of
Biloxi,
which
includes
not
only
fixed
service
but
the
on-demand,
a
Coast
Commuter
service,
rental
income
that
we
bounce
back
towards
the
city's
subsidy
for
property
that
we
rent
and
in
our
activities
related
to
the
East-West
Corridor,
which
hopefully
is
going
to
get
finally
moved
forward
at
some
point
in
the
near
future.
Z
Some
statistics
against
our
peers
in
the
southeast
as
it
turns
out
our
fare
box
revenue
is,
is
the
second
highest
as
a
percent
of
fixed
root,
cost
of
any
of
the
other
cities
that
have
been
grouped
as
our
peers,
meaning
cities
of
similar
size
and
places
like
Memphis,
Shreveport
Pensacola
are
some
of
those
that
are
in
that
peer
group
and
the
local
subsidy.
As
a
percent
of
our
total
operating
cost,
we
are
the
second
lowest
meaning
that
the
city
of
Biloxi
pays
less
than
virtually
every
other
city
in
the
Southeast.
Z
As
a
representation
of
our
cost,
our
we
have
a
an
hourly
rate
of
the
total
cost
of
operating
the
CTA
fixed
service,
which
this
year
is
going
to
be
about
eighty
dollars
an
hour.
Z
We
are
the
lowest
cost
on
a
per
hourly
service
basis
of
any
of
the
cities
of
our
peers
and
the
subsidy.
That
city
is
that
the
city
of
Biloxi
is
paying
is
currently
the
lowest
per
passenger
of
any
City
in
the
southeast,
so
the
value
of
the
service
is
obviously
there
and
I
realize
that
every
year
we
go
through
the
budget
process
here,
we're
all
digging
from
some
way
to
find
a
balance.
AH
I'm
going
to
start
go
right
into
the
budget,
we
do
have
some
handouts
for
you
when
we're
done
making
our
presentation
and
your
clerk
has
the
digital
file.
So
you
can
just
let
us
know
afterwards.
When
we
were
here
before
you.
Last
year
we
asked
for
a
substantial
increase
to
get
us
back
to
where
we
were
pre-covered
2020.
We
were
asked
to
go
out
by
the
mayor
in
the
council.
AH
We
were
asked
to
go
out
and
find
some
emergency
relief
funding,
and
we
did
that
three
years
ago
we
reduced
the
subsidy
by
50
percent
of
subsequent
year
was
25
in
last
year
was
a
get
back
to
normal
funding
mechanism
year
for
all
of
us,
the
city
included,
I,
know
and
I
do
respect
the
fact
that
all
of
us
are
trying
to
to
balance
our
budgets
and
times
are
tough
and-
and
you
know,
we
do
recognize
that
and
appreciate
that.
So
we
promised
the
city
some
things
and
said
some
things
last
year.
AH
That
would
hold
the
line
this
year
for
our
subsidy
asking
and
we're
going
to
do
that
and
I'm
going
to
get
into
where
the
money
comes
from.
What
your
cost
is
going
to
be,
but
we
we
committed
to
you
that
we
were
going
to
increase
fixed
route
ridership
this
year
in
2023
and
we
have
which
increased
increases
Revenue
we're
on
Slide
14..
AH
We
we
told
you,
we
were
going
to
increase
advertising
revenue
and
we
have
done
that
or
where
our
advertising
budget
this
year
is
160
and
we're
projecting
to
come
in
at
198
000.
So
that's
a
pretty
substantial
amount
above
what
the
budget
is.
So
we
were
able
to
do
that
and
through
that,
your
share
of
advertising
for
2024
is
going
to
increase
the
75
000.
AH
We
also
told
you
that
we
would
consider-
and
we
are
considering
and
going
into
a
30-day
public
comment
to
increase
fares
by
25
cents,
the
basic
fare
we
have
not
increased
fares
in
10
or
12
years.
I
apologize,
I
meant
to
pull
that
fall
before
I
came
over,
so
it's
been
at
least
10
years
since
we've
raised
fares
and
we
are
going
to
do
that
is
going
to
have
an
impact
on
what
we're
doing
so
if
you'll
go
to
slide
16
please.
AH
But
what
we're
showing
you
here
is
what
we
show
you
every
year
is
the
format
that
we
use
for
what
we
asked
for
our
cost
per
hour
is
going
up
from
2023
to
2024
to
80
dollars.
This
year
it
was
78,
the
CPI
is
3.3
percent.
The
increase
is
only
2.5
percent,
so
we're
doing
better
than
the
the
CPI
and
so
we're
projecting
Biloxi's
hours.
The
formula
that
we
use
is
based
on
ours,
the
amount
of
hours
that
we're
projecting
for
us
to
provide
most
simply
multiplied
by
80
an
hour.
AH
Your
projected
cost
is
2
million
forty
thousand
dollars-
and
you
know,
there's
the
other
city.
So
you
know
it's
consistent
in
the
way
we
do
things
and
where
the
money
is
coming
from.
I
have
that
in
the
lower
portion
there
funding
sources,
Federal,
Transit
Administration
has
a
preventative
maintenance
program
is
408
thousand
dollars.
AH
Mdot
is
contributing
a
hundred
two
thousand
dollars
for
match.
The
fare
box
is
three
hundred
thirty
thousand
dollars.
Fta
operating
is
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
lease
space
income
is
sixty
four
thousand.
The
advertising
revenue
is.
Seventy
four
thousand,
eight
hundred
exactly
I,
told
you
round
it
up
to
75..
Harrison
County
contributes
to
your
operating
costs,
fifty
five
thousand
dollars,
so
total
revenues
are
projected
to
be
one
million.
Six
hundred
thirty,
three
thousand
eight
hundred,
that's
just
the
Biloxi
system.
AH
Every
system
fixed
route
has
their
own
revenues
as
you
can
see,
and
there
are
variables
in
it
and
so
we're
holding
the
line.
We're
not
asking
for
any
more
money.
Compared
to
last
year,
we're
asking
again
for
395
000,
that's
19
of
the
operating
cost
of
our
operating
costs
of
your
system.
You
can
see
the
others
D'iberville
Gulfport
and
Ocean
Springs
we're
asking
them
to
contribute
at
levels
of
twenty.
Two
thousand
there's
also
we're
projecting
they
have
a
small
deficit
in
Biloxi
and
in
D'iberville
as
well.
AH
Biloxi
deficit
is
eleven
thousand
two
hundred
dollars
and
how
we're
going
to
make
that
up
is
we're
going
to
have
to
do
better
and
ridership
revenue
advertising
sales,
whatever
mechanisms
that
we
have
we're
going
to
have
to
perform
better
than
what
our
projections
are,
and
we
think
we
can
do
it
even
though
we're
using
some
pretty
aggressive
numbers,
a
ridership
across
the
country
covet,
has
beat
everybody
up
real
bad.
AH
E
AH
Pass
road
has
not
come
back;
our
ridership
projection
is
our
ridership.
Projection
is
less
than
what
our
budget
numbers
were,
so
we're
not
generating
the
fare
box
Revenue
in
2023.
We
thought
we
would,
but
anyway
we're
going
to
do
exactly
what
we
told
you.
We
were
going
to
do
we're
not
asking
for
an
increase
from
what
we
asked
for
last
year.
H
I
knew
you
were
ready
for
me
to
start
first
director.
Listen!
Thank
you
for
your
presentation.
Probably
the
first
year,
I've
ever
heard
some
good
news
from
my
perspective
on
considering
a
rate
Fair
increase,
or
at
least
putting
that
out
for
public
comment,
increasing
the
marketing
dollars,
that's
a
positive
directory
Direction
and
trying
to
control
your
expenses
to
some
degree.
H
There's
that
missing
piece
I'm
not
going
to
get
too
deep
into
it
where
I
believe
there's
another
industry
that
could
do
more
I,
don't
know
if
we
can
make
any
inroads
there,
but
I
applaud
you
this
year
for
going
to
doing
the
hard
work
and
keeping
these
expenses
even
and
I
can
support
this
request.
So
thank
you
director.
Thank
you,
sir.
H
K
Don't
have
any
comments
regarding
numbers:
I'm,
I
I'm,
not
in
opposition
to
it
so
which
I'm
sure
miss
Coggin,
you're,
probably
not
used
to
me
not
challenging
your
request.
Have
you
been
I
haven't
seen
you
in
a
while
yeah
the
one
thing
that
the
younger
comment
I
have
is
in
your
presentation.
You
mentioned
cities
with
similar
sizes,
and
you
mentioned
both
Memphis
and
Shreveport,
and
Memphis
is
like
1.2
million.
So
it's
considerably
different
in
size
play.
AH
That
makes
sense,
then,
okay,
so
I
can
comment
on
that.
If
you,
if
you
will
mobile
the
Gulfport
Biloxi
uza,
is
over
200
000.,
so
in
Federal,
Transit
administration's
eyes
we're
a
mid-sized
transit
system,
but
we
don't
run
a
whole
lot
of
buses.
So
we're
really
a
small
Urban
system.
Mobile
is
in
there
they're
comparable
to
us
and
Jay
Tran
and
Jackson
is
comparable
to
us.
So
there's
some
others
that
are
really
comparable,
but
we
wanted
to
kind
of
look
at
a
Southeast
region.
AH
K
I
AH
AH
So
we've
held
up
our
end
of
the
bargain
for
three
of
the
last
four
years,
when
we've
reduced
our
subsidy
to
you
and
held
the
line
and
increased
our
own
self-generated
Revenue
this
year
forecast
for
2024,
we
don't
know,
obviously
what
the
world's
going
to
bring,
but
we
are
focused
on
minimizing
what
we
ask
you
for
and
we're
at
19
our
city.
Your
sister
cities
on
the
coast
are
at
22
percent
and
we're
much
lower
than
the
regional
average
and
I
can
commit
to
you
personally.
AH
AH
I
can't
tell
you
what
it's
going
to
look
like
when
we
come
before
you
next
year,
if
we're
still
here
but
I'm,
committing
to
you
that
we're
going
to
continue
to
hold
the
line
and
generate
as
much
revenue
as
we
can
and
I
can't
commit,
but
I
would
hope
if
we
come
back
next
year.
If
there
is
an
increase,
it
would
be
minuscule
because
we
get
it.
We
know
we
need
to
be
self-sufficient
and
we
are,
but
we
are
working
it
really
hard
internally.
AH
I
Z
Two
years
ago,
2019
the
budget
for
Biloxi
was
actually
392
000,
but
because
it
was
coveted
money
available
in
in
of
ninety
eight
thousand
dollars,
we
were
able
to
basically
artificially
reduce
the
Biloxi
budget
that
one
year
by
98
000..
So
it's
not
like
you
paid
an
extra
hundred
thousand
last
year.
All
it
did
was
get
it
back
to
where
it
has
historically
been
yeah.
Z
You
you
ended
up
paying
294
that
year,
because
the
98
000
of
of
coveted
money
that
that
was
able
to
be
obtained.
I
We
always
average
about
250
260
with
the
ctave
a
long
time.
You
know
the
things
changed,
a
lot
yeah,
it's
like
everything
else.
We
dealing
with
another
150
000
that
we
put
now
for
the
CTA,
and
you
said:
Biloxi
Drive,
all
the
buses,
probably
majority
of
them.
Money
runs
through
blocks.
One
way
or
the
other
right
I
mean.
Z
I
AH
H
Yeah
we're
living
in
the
same
world
that
everybody
else
does
yeah
I'd
like
to
point
out
something
too.
This
is
Page
21
of
one
of
your
Audits
and
your
budgeted
excess
of
revenues
over
expenses
was
931
actual
was
one
million
152
for
a
variant
surplus
of
221
000..
Keep
that
keep
that
money
ready
for
next
year.
Maybe
maybe
we
can
offset
some
things
next
year
with
all
those
other
increases
that
are.
A
A
Just
you
said
10
years
or
something
along
those
lines
and
I
I
did
and
it
may
have
been
I
know
you
got
a
new
sales
person
and
the
advertising
Department
I
did
see
have
seen
an
uptick
in
advertising,
for
you
guys
so
appreciate.
Y'all
coming
I,
don't
really
have
anything
further.
Oh.
E
A
Do
have
one
question:
I'm,
sorry,
isn't
it
required
that
we
pay
a
certain
percentage
of
the
funding
for
us
to
for
like
if
y'all
get
federal
dollars,
we
have
to
pay
a
certain
percent.
It's
almost
like
a
match,
Grant
on
on
a
project
that
we
do
sure.
So
precisely.
AH
A
AH
Z
Of
that
can
come
from
the
county,
some
from
the
city,
some
from
from
MDOT,
so
there's
various
other
sources,
but
okay,
all
right
and
in
fact
the
the
advertising
Revenue
increase
this
year.
Without
that
we
would
have
had
to
have
asked
you
guys
for
a
a
pretty
significant
increase.
So
that's.
A
I
see
that
we
have
the
the
Harrison
County
Soil
Conservation.
If
y'all
want
to
come
forward.
N
U
A
S
U
The
county
in
many
ways
dealing
with
our
natural
resources,
of
course,
just
to
give
you
a
couple
of
things
that
we've
we've,
that
we
have
and
it
works,
and
then
what
we've
done
in
the
past
year,
we
did
a
educational
presentation
at
one
of
the
at
Ann
Elementary,
School
I,
can't
remember,
which
one
it
might
have
been
popular,
very
Elementary
and
then
that's
where
all
the
kids
come
different
classes
pass
through
the
rooms.
You
know
we
did
a
little
presentation
on
soils.
We
even
had
a
a
mock-up
of
a
soil
profile.
U
These
are
things
that
the
teachers
can't
do.
One
thing
we
can
do
is
we
can
augment
the
teachers
week
what
they
provide.
We
can
do
Hands-On
things.
Another
thing
we
did
recently
is:
we
did
a
tree
planting
at
Back,
Bay,
Elementary
and
I
also
had
little
seedlings
of
Live
Oak.
By
the
way
we
we
now
have
our
own
Live,
Oak,
Nursery,
so
a
little
ceilings
and
when
I
pulled
them
out
of
the
ground
shook
them
off.
There
was
an
acorn
and
a
branch
and
a
root
and
I
was
surprised
at
how
many.
U
Do
also
we
have
a
teacher's
Workshop
every
year
we
just
had
one
a
few
back
in
June
about
how
many
Patrick
can
tell
you
more
about
that
he's
the
treasurer.
He
knows
all
the
details,
I'm
just
a
dirt
Forester
I
like
to
get
my
hands
in
the
dirt.
M
Right
we're
also
associated
with
and
we're
housed
in
the
with
the
nrcs,
which
is
federal
natural
resource
conservation
service.
So
we
augment
their
programs.
We
are
currently
scheduling
with
your
city
Engineers,
to
help
wear
a
conduit
with
their
ewp
program,
which
could
bring
an
opportunity
of
that
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
to
the
city
Biloxi
for
emergency
erosion
control
projects.
We
want
to
discuss
that
program.
Gulfport
Long
Beach,
take
great
Advantage
they've
they've,
received
over
the
last
five
years.
M
I
think
the
City
of
Long
Beach
has
received
over
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
projects
of
that
type.
Biloxi
has
not
received
any
because
we
think
that
it's
you
haven't
taken
advantage
of
it.
So
we
want
to
promote
that
program
within
RCS
to
the
city
of
Biloxi,
we'll
entertain
any
questions.
Okay,
we'll
start
with
you
again,
Mr.
A
R
I
U
Bet
well,
we
like
doing
that
to
end
up
our
goal
is
to
do
a
tree
planting
at
every
Elementary
School
in
Biloxi
and
in
Harrison
County.
Excuse
me,
man
in
the
county
and
furthermore,
our
traditional
goal
has
been
toward
conventional
agriculture.
We
used
to
rent
out
a
sea
drill,
a
manure
spreader
or
a
litter
spreader,
and
we're
getting
away
from
that
we're
doing
more
urban
agriculture
Urban
conservation
now.
So
that
brings
us
to
what
we
do
with
the
schools.
S
R
A
I,
don't
does
anybody
have
any
questions
for
Mardi,
Gras,
Art,
Museum
and
and
then
we
have
Crime
Stoppers
if
y'all
want
to
come,
okay
and
Gulf,
Coast
Center
for
non-violence
all
right,
do
any
of
you
have
questions
for
any
of
those
any
questions
for
any
of
those
George
going
once
going
twice.
I
I
D
I
I
do
it's
under
Public,
Health
and
Welfare.
We
have
the
Gulf
Coast,
Women's,
Center
right
and
then
the
Family
Justice
that
falls
under
you
and
then
we
had
Women's
Resource
Center.
That's
a
different
entity
entirely.
Okay,
so
that's
somebody
else
and
let's
see
for
the
Community
Development
block
grant
in
what
we
approved
recently
you're,
getting
fifteen
thousand
dollars
of
that
correct,
be
a
preschool
program.
Okay,
that's
all!
Thank
you.
So.
A
A
U
AG
A
A
AA
A
E
M
A
So
they
asked
for
a
total
of
forty
thousand
dollars
between
the
two
we're
giving
20
and
5
and
then
15's
coming
from
cdbg,
so
they're
still
getting
their
40
000.
But
only
25
is
coming
from
the
general
fund.
A
A
S
AG
A
So
Mike
now
that
we've
went
through
all
these
departments,
when
do
we
have
to
have
a
when
do.
A
Have
our
numbers
finalized
to
do
for
a
Public
Presentation.
A
A
Okay,
do
we
so
do?
Can
we
are
we
able
to
have
next
Tuesday
one
final,
just
to
go
a
synopsis
of
everything
make
any
Cuts
so
do
y'all
want
to
do
that
prior
to
or
after
our
regular
scheduled
meeting.
That's.
I
H
H
A
One
last
question
before
we
all
want
to
meet
before
we
leave
what
and
I
know
it's
in
here,
but
so
that
I
don't
have
to
dig
for
it.
When
we
originally
started,
we
had
a
two
point:
something
million
dollar
Gap.
Is
that
correct
in
projected
revenue
and
expenses?
Is
that
correct
what
what.
S
I
AG
N
L
L
L
Okay,
now
there
have
been
some
in
preparation
for
this.
There
have
been
some
changes
in
Revenue.
E
L
Didn't
see
any
I
didn't
hear
any
actual
changes
in.
K
A
K
For
us
to
soak
this
information
in
it
helped
me
understand
we're.
So
we
have
a
nine
million
dollar
difference.
Yes
in
where
we're
at
right
now,
based
off
of
revenues
and
expenditures
and
savings,
that's
pretty
big
gap
to
close,
but
I'll
tell
you
I
want
to
sit
on
it
and
think
it
would
be.
K
K
Years,
we've
done
it
for
27
years
without
raising
the
millage
I
think
we
can
figure
it
out
for
a
28th,
but
I
think
this
is
gonna,
be
a
tough
week
for
all
of
us.
Nathan
I,
don't
have
anything
else
to
say:
I.
K
Well,
I
think:
that's
that's
why
Nathan
has
been
on
the
contractual
Services
thing.
The
thing
that
I
brought
up
years
ago
I
think
there's
a
real
need
to
look
at
that
as
an
Avenue
to
cut
down
Insurance
requirement
costs,
tax
contributions,
pers
contributions,
if
we're
using
outsourced
labor
that
is
covered
by
their
own
company
I,
think
that
should
I
mean
have
we
done
any
analysis
of
how
much
we
could
actually
afford
to
spend
and
what
what
rights
we
have
regard
to
allowing
private
companies
or
entities
to
do
jobs
that
are
tasked
for
the
city.
L
Well,
as
you
know
about
three
years
ago,
we
started
doing
a
lot
of
our
grass
Mowing
and
a
lot
you
know,
cleaning
with
contracts
and
I
think
that's
worked
out
well
for
us
you've.
You
suggest
that
we
ought
to
have
a
ditch
contract
contract
and
Engineering
is
working
on
getting
quotes
right
now
for
a
ditch
cleaning
unit
price
contract
I
think
we
need
to
learn
and
the
repair
replace
contractor
is.
L
Emergencies
and
they're
doing
that
really
because
we
don't
have
the
staff
to
do
anything
other
than
just
just
emergencies,
but
anything
we've
got
a
chance
to
get.
S
K
L
A
1
point
something
off
of
that,
so
just
so
I
understand
this
correctly:
we're
we're
projecting
somewhere
around
72
million
dollars
in
revenue
and
we're
setting
over
80
million
in
expenses
that
that's
that's,
departmental
and
non-departmental.
Correct.

Half
probably
for
those
cars
well
something
he
needs
because
he
needs
police.
Definitely
somebody
got
to
run
homeless
off.
So
we
need
police
cars
to
have
that.
But
all
these
other
people
riding
around
the
city-
why
is
everybody
their
brother
got?
A
call?
I
mean
that
forty
thousand
fifty
thousand
just
riding
around
on
the
streets
I
mean
everybody
and
employee.
They
got
to
get
to
work
like
anybody
else,
they're
going
to
get
there,
we
don't
need
to
provide
them
with
a
car
or
a
truck.
L
We're
plus
four
and
that's
basically
because
it's
plus
13
in
the
police
department,
plus
13,
more
bodies
than
in
the
previous
budget.
I
L
Oh
no
I'm,
sorry
724
versus
722.,
the
total,
the
total
people
we
budgeted
for
foreign
the
current
year
was
722
bodies.
The
the
budget
that
you
is
that
you're
going
to
vote
on
is
724.
So
it's
a
plus
plus
two
plus
two
bodies
that
you
asked
about:
how
many
people
we
have
there's
that's!
What's
in
the
budget,
724.
I
L
L
Numbers
versus
actual
so.
A
What
we
need
to
do
is
each
person
needs
to
go
through,
digest
everything
and
then
come
come
to
the
meeting
next
Tuesday,
with
a
list
of
recommendations
of
of
places
to
to
cut
also
any
other
questions.
All
right.
I'll
call
for
the
question
make
a
motion
to
adjourn
I'll.
Do
that
I'll
move
it
okay,
first
by
Mr,
Lawrence,
second,
by
Mr
Deming,
all
in
favor.
D
We're
going
to
have
an
insurance
meeting
for
those
stalwart
Souls
who
are
still
here,
we're
going
to
ask
Psy
to
go
through
a
quick
presentation,
but
the
a
we
need
to
get
this
information
shared
with
whoever's
here
and
is
interested
from
the
employees.
Not
many,
but
the
other
thing
is:
we've
got
to
make
a
decision
on
all
of
this
sometime
next
week's
eye,
so
I
mean
we
can't
afford
to
delay
it
another
week.
So
those
who
are
interested
Psy.
What
do
you
reckon
30
minutes?
Oh.
D
Good,
okay,
so
anyway,
we'll
start
just
we're
so
we'll
we'll
start
that
meeting
in
just
a
couple
of
minutes
and
Sai
Shane
Dimitris
right
here,
if
you
wanna,
you
know,
do
the
connectivity
thing.
