So
I
had
an
informal
conversation
with
the
Bosch
about
including
walking
the
crosswalk
with
their
security
people.
You
know
on
every
hour
or
so
because
that
we're
afraid
that
that's
gonna
be
a
problem
could
be
a
problem
if
the
homeless
or
pan
handlers
who
ever
get
up
in
there
and
since
the
majority
of
the
people
transiting
that
that
walkway
will
be
Motor.
Lodge
employees
and
Beau
Rivage
guests.
E
J
K
Not
much
other
than
tonight's,
the
cubby
Awards
I,
don't
know.
I
didn't
see
your
name
on
the
list
as
a
presenter,
which
you
should
be
no
Dixie
and
myself
will
be
presenting
tonight
in
the
Cubbies
for
those
of
you
that
don't
know
where
it's
an
event
that
that
celebrates
the
accomplishments
and
the
contributions
of
many
local
venues
and
entities
here
on
the
coast.
Many
are
from
or
in
Biloxi
I,
don't
know
just
glad
and
he'll
be
there.
K
Of
course,
the
Beau
Rivage
is
gonna
be
awarded
numerous
times
as
they
always
are
because,
as
he
stated,
they
have
been
a
contributor
to
our
our
vitality
here
on
the
coast
for
a
long
time,
if
you
have
some
free
time
tonight,
I
think
it's
$35
for
it
ticket
come
out
and
I'll
say
you
seat
at
my
table.
Mr.
mayor.
F
You've
got
a
few
things
that
Friday
night
they
had
to
poke
the
run
I'll
totally
pretty
neat.
They
went
to
five
different
local
pubs
and
you
picked
up
a
card.
You
come
back
to
want
they're
a
nice
crowd.
It
probably
had
maybe
60
70
people
involved
in
that,
but
it
helps
the
business.
There's
turned
out
to
be
a
good
event.
F
A
lot
of
people
came
down
Friday
night
and
that's
the
side
that
we
had
grilling
on
a
green
and
the
same
type
of
day
parade
that
night
crowds
with
both
of
them
and
we
got
rid
of
an
old
village
and
got
an
O'keefe.
So
we
did
pretty
good
it's
for
this
grand
marshal
and
I
was
like
okay
I,
often
wonder
why
they,
when
they
shot
the
fireworks
to
never
use
the
top
of
the
building,
what
he
did
that
Saturday
night.
That
was
pretty
neat
topic,
though,
and
that
other
that's
the
best
thing
about
that
night.
F
A
George
and
I
have
one
thing:
Kate
Miller,
Bill,
Wyman
and
myself.
As
we
know,
we
have
a
growing
homeless
problem
and
we're
going
to
be
traveling
to
a
homeless
conference
in
Seattle
law
this
weekend,
so
keep
us
in
your
prayers
and
we're
gonna
bring
back
their
information
to
try
to
help
resolve
some
of
the
issues
we
have
here.
Thank.
F
A
F
L
I
got
inspired
now,
I've
talked
to
the
mic,
so
let
me
say
it
again:
I
think
everybody
heard
me.
My
name
is
John
Kemp.
My
house
lives
at
178.
Honorable
Court
I
live
in
the
city
of
Biloxi
mr.
mayor
directors
of
each
department,
mr.
Barrett
mr.
gladwyn
mr.
lawrence
mr.
Gowens,
miss
Newman
and
mr.
Tisdale
I'm
here
to
say
thank
you,
as
you
all
know,
for
the
last
few
years,
I
come
in
and
I
leave
the
complaints
to
my
fellow
citizens.
L
I
come
in
to
say
thank
you
because
I
again,
I
live
in
the
city
of
Biloxi
and
I
Drive
it
quite
frequently.
This
is
a
beautiful
Peninsula.
We
live
on.
You
don't
believe
me
every
now
and
then
go
on
Google
Earth
and
just
look
above
look
from
above
while
I
was
in
Germany
for
about
five
weeks,
I
noticed
on
February
19th
discounsel,
along
with
the
mayor
and
my
counsel.
Mr.
Ganz
are
considering
a
resolution
to
have
a
Recreation
Department
in
East
Biloxi
and
that's
been
my
pet
peeve
project.
L
Since
I
moved
back
several
years
ago
and
I
say
my
project
because
had
it
not
been
for
the
three
four?
Maybe
five
facilities
that
I
had
growing
up
in
East
Berlin,
see
more
specifically
the
Housing
Authority
I
may
have
not
decided
to
go
into
military
and
volunteer
my
time
to
my
fellow
citizens.
So
once
again,
I
want
to
thank
this
body
for
at
least
considering
a
recreation
facility
in
East
Biloxi.
L
L
Growing
up
in
Biloxi,
specifically
the
housing
authority
with
the
posterior
elementary
and
firm
would
we
had
to
be
bused
every
day,
so
that
meant
that
coming
from
East
Biloxi
I
literally
drove
our
two
bus
driver
drove
12
miles
deferment,
and
we
saw
this
beautiful
city
every
day
twice
a
day.
Sometimes.
L
Recreation
Department's
is
such
an
unfair
name.
Let
me
just
tell
you
everything,
but
basketball
was
being
planted
in
the
gymnasiums
that
I
speak
of
the
red
gym,
also
known
as
the
East
Biloxi
community
center.
We
called
it
red
because
it
was
red.
The
yellow,
gym,
pringles
gym
also
barely
played
any
basketball.
Mister
guys
to
tell
you
most
of
time
we
were
playing
cards.
L
Are
somebody
was
trying
to
organize
the
meeting
to
get
Boy
Scouts
going
to
get
community
involvement
gone
and
as
I
live
in
front
of
Busch,
Park
and
I
see
these
14
and
15
and
16
year
olds
trouble
troublemakers
without
nothing
to
do
recreationally
I
wonder
if
one
facility
could
change
that,
but
I'm
sure
the
chief
of
police
and
some
of
the
other
people
in
law
enforcement
may
attest
to
that.
So
please,
as
you
move
forward,
consider
making
this
happen
this
on
paper.
Let's
do
it
and
again.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
A
M
M
As
you
will
see
from
the
photographs,
the
outside
of
the
library
is
streaked
with
mildew
and
mold,
and
if
you
look
at
the
picture
of
the
outside
of
the
glass
on
the
children's
department
window,
it
is
so
thick
with
green
glop
and
black
law
that
it
darkens
the
interior,
which
is
not
a
very
nice
environment
for
the
children
and
the
lights
have
to
be
kept
on
all
day
long,
which
obviously
is
running
at
philippi.
Even
on
a
sunny
day,
the
lights
have
to
be
kept
on,
which
is
running
out.
Food
light
builds
unnecessarily.
M
Last
month
was
a
short
month
28
days
and
bad
weather
attendance
was
over
6100
people
at
that
library,
the
West
Biloxi
library.
During
the
year,
the
average
attendance
is
6500
people
and
we
have
been
getting
some
adverse
comments
about
the
degree
of
mildew
and
mold
on
the
outside
of
the
building
the
maintenance
of
the
building.
It
goes
without
saying
that
there
is
not
one
of
us.
M
So
I
think
what
I'm
saying
is:
two
men
can
do
this
in
a
day,
but
small
expense.
It's
not
going
to
take
very
long
to
power
wash
it
it's
not
a
big
deal
and
the
library
is
city
property,
and
it
desperately
needs
to
be
done.
So
I
would
be
greatly
appreciative,
and
so,
with
everybody
that
comes
to
that
library,
would
you
please
get
it
power-washed?
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
F
A
F
First,
one
like
to
do
B
I
just
like
to
add
it's
a
few
questions.
I
know
we're
taking
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
out
of
CDBG
money
and
use
it
for
side
grants.
I,
don't
think
that's
appropriate
to
DB
g
money,
I
think
the
other
things
need
to
be
done
in
Ward,
1
and
2
and
other
Ward's
with
the
low
income
people
to
help
them
individually.
So
I'm,
not
in
favor
of
moving
its
nine
thousand
dollars
towards
a
facade
grant,
go.
A
F
A
J
F
F
F
J
J
J
F
F
F
I
Can
address
an
hour,
we
did
consider
that
there
is
actually
case
law
that
states.
If
someone
is,
someone
has
a
right
to
challenge
a
contract
or
contest
a
contract,
and
can't
you
can't
specifically
deny
them
the
right
to
bid
or
accept
a
bid
just
because
the
fact
that
there
is
pending
litigation
well.
I
Our
other
research
indicated
the
reason
for
that
requirement
is
to
make
sure
they're
not
hiding
a
potential
litigation
situation
from
the
city
since
we're
in
litigation
or
have
a
pending
litigation
with,
and
the
city
was
definitely
aware
of
that.
I
did
undertake
to
investigate.
There
are
other
projects.
I
K
B
D
B
D
You
asked
me
if
I
am
litigation,
I
tell
you
no
and
I'm
bidding
on
a
major
a
bid,
that's
pretty
significant,
is
it
not
I
mean
if
I'm
applying
for
a
job,
and
they
asked
me,
are
you
in
any
litigation,
I
say
no
and
I
get
the
job.
You
know
it
just
it.
Just
does.
Logically,
that
seems
like
a
big
big
red
flag
to
me.
K
E
E
I
E
J
B
E
J
I
Other
thing
we
look
at
when
we're
trying
to
determine
I
mean
the
the
council
has
a
discretion
to
determine
what's
material
and
what's
not
material
when
we're
looking
at
this
overall
we're
trying
to
determine
first
of
all,
the
lowest
bid
as
far
as
the
taxpayers
and
all
concern.
That
generally
always
has
a
standard
of
being
upheld
that,
in
our
bid
requirements
we
say
in
formalities
can
be
waived,
and
it's
done.
I
They
turned
in
the
other
three
turned
in
portions
of
the
book,
but
that's
not
a
performance-based
thing
that
is
more
or
less
an
informality
in
my
view
and
could
be
waived
if
we
want
this
to
be
the
low
bid.
The
questionnaire
again
is
something
we
have
knowledge
of,
and
we
ask
them
to
if
they
wanted
to
explain
it.
They've
submitted
that
letter
and
that's
their
position
on
explaining
it
that
it
was
not
an
intent
to
deceive
and
it's
an
informality
that
should
be
waived
well.
I
I
K
Testified
that
this
had
happened
in
a
previous
account,
so
we
had
to
question
them
on
this
same
issue
on
a
previous
bid,
and
yet
they
failed
to
do
it
again.
That
almost
proves
the
intent,
if
you
just
maybe
luckily
we'll
overlook
it.
So
the
council
doesn't
consider
that
I
I
disagree,
that
this
is
an
informality
because
we're
in
a
different
city,
and
even
if
we're
in
litigation
with
them,
we
should
know
they
failed
to
disclose
that
we
called
them
on
it
the
first
time
and
they
continue
to
fail
to
disclose
it.
So.
D
So
I
agree
with
you
that
it
could
be
a
formality,
but
they
should
answer
it
correctly
and
then
we
should
weigh
the
way
the
facts
of
it
and
make
a
decision,
so
I
thought
I
just
think
it
carries
a
lot
more
weight
when
you
have
a
questionnaire
specifically
asking
questions
on
a
significant
monetary
contract
and
you
don't
complete
it,
that's
just
it
gives
me
some
pause.
It
really
does
and.
F
My
question
is
the
last
couple
of
years:
Mike
since
you've
been
here,
she's
trying
to
put
everything
in
line.
Do
everything
the
right
way
and
made
everything
right,
and
so
we
can't
sit
in
exception.
That's
not
right!
Everything
we've
been
doing,
you've
been
doing
a
consulate.
Everything
with
all
the
people,
not
paying
with
different
pen,
has
been
one
of
the
big
thing.
That's
you,
you
know
ex-marine
on
the
stand
hat,
so
we're
not
gonna,
accept
something,
that's
not
right
and
say.
Then
do
it
right?
It's
not
right!
F
B
F
K
K
K
E
J
If
we
do
that,
I'll
just
I'm
lay
it
out
for
you.
If
we
go
to
the
first
lowest
bidder
that
met
all
of
the
administrative
requirements,
it's
a
million
dollars,
that's
the
number
for
bidder
higher
than
because
each
of
the
others
one
two
and
three
didn't
do.
What
didn't
it
turn
and
conclude
the
entire
spectrum.
G
Know
it's.
You
know
the
two
sides
to
yea
or
nay
on
this
particular
issue
and
if
it
is
now
on
this
issue
and
goes
to
the
second
bidder,
the
original
the
case
will
probably
suing
us
too.
So
that's
the
that's
the
decision
we
have,
whether
it's
material
or
not
material.
If
it's
not
material,
then
we've
got
to
go
forward
with
any
case
if
it
isn't
material.
In
your
estimation,
then
we're
going
to
face
what
we
need
to
face.
You
know
one
way
or
the
other
we've
got
a
decision
to
make.
E
J
K
Am
NOT
a
construction
person,
so
I
just
look
at
this
and
see
where
threw
it
I.
Don't
I
can't
look
at
it
for
accuracy
because
I
don't
have
the
prerequisite
knowledge.
However,
when
something
stands
out
to
me,
it
gives
me
a
question
for
concern.
So
if
you
flip
to
page
22
of
the
actual
of
the
yeste
made
it
big
and
we're
looking
at
the
different
line
items
for
the
cost
and
the
price
per
unit,
we
would
go
from
18
dollars
to
$35
per
linear
foot.
Do
you
want
all
this
per
linear
foot?
K
Then
we
get
over
to
911,
610
D
and
it's
it's
14
linear
feet
at
forty
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
per
linear
foot
for
four.
What
appears
to
be
a
iron
sewer
force
main
pipe?
No
I
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
if
that's
what
they
cost
can
I
actually
get
some.
What
it
looks
like
to
me
is:
that's
a
bid
fluffer,
that's
an
unbalancing
of
the
bid,
so
they
can
prevent
overages
on
anything
else.
They
bid
for
to
keep
their
bid
down
and
not
lose
money,
and
if
everything
stays
low,
then
they
get
a
windfall.
K
N
And
we
had
discussions,
my
staff
had
discussions
with
a
contractor
to
ask
him
why
that
apparent,
obvious
outlier
and
my
staff
was
told
that
it
was
a
problem
with
their
software,
how
it
addressed
it
when
they
put
the
proposals
together
and
that
we
would
have
the
potential
to
negotiate
if
awarded
to
a
more
fair
or
reasonable
cost
per
linear
foot.
What.
K
That
sounds
like
to
me:
does
it
sounds
like
an
excuse
to
get
the
bed
I
I
think
that
they
should
come
back
with
a
reasonable
price.
They
want
to
win
the
bid.
I
think
that's
outrageous
that
we're
gonna
accept
a
bid
where
they
use
this
mechanism
to
to
defraud
the
city
base
off
the
other
bids
and
then
tell
us
what
we
can
come
back
and
kind
of
talk
about
that.
If
we
want
to
ones
that
we
win
the
bid.
F
K
Why
don't
we
just
have
them?
Why
don't
we
just
have
them
re--
bid
at
the
real
price,
and
then
it
would
come
back
lower
it'd
be
the
same
thing
as
getting
them
to
negotiate.
Let's
put
the
the
market
pressures
of
competition
on
them
and
make
them
give
us
a
fair
and
accurate
bid.
Then
we
really
know
where
we
stand.
N
N
D
K
D
I
Under
the
law,
we
can't-
let's
say
they:
if
their
bid
is
incorrect,
we
can't
negotiate
that
number
down
because
they're
the
lowest
bid,
the
bid
I
mean
that's
under
the
bid
statute.
Look
what
Walters
saying
is
down
the
road
is
part
of
a
change
order
that
could
be
negotiated,
but
I
mean
they
are
the
low
bid.
Even
with
that,
but.
D
F
K
B
N
We
did
look
into
that
and
there
was
no
there's.
No
major
item
of
concern
related
see,
average
between
knee
case
and
the
others,
except
for
this
one
now
staying
there
work
since
differences
among
the
first
load,
the
first
three
lowest
bidders.
They
all
had
some
numbers
that
were,
but
you
know,
contractors
bid
they're,
just
estimates
contractors
bid
in
ways
that
they
because
they
know
the
projects.
So
we
did
look
at
all.
The
other
line.
Items
were
knee
case
compared
to
others,
and
there
was
nothing
that
I
would
feel
uncomfortable
with.

The
past
experiences
we've
had
with
them,
as
was
prior
to
me,
coming
on
board
with
the
city
when
I
came
on
board.
The
issues
of
some
of
these
outstanding
projects
that
had
not
been
closed
out
were
some
of
the
first
issues.
I
tackle
not
just
this
contractor,
but
other
contractors
that
had
not
you
know,
finished
out
their
work,
and
it
was
just
outstanding
items
that
we
need
to
get
done.
I
think.
I
F
I
history
with
them,
that's
true:
the
history,
women
world
market
wasn't
a
quick
project
that
was
behind
and
delayed,
and
the
last
one
with
the
Paul
said
in
the
two
streets.
Here
was
the
problem,
so
in
it
I
know,
Kevin
did
in
Gulfport
the
history
who
does
has
not
been
that
good.
So
my
recommendation
still
to
deny
this.
K
No
problem
with
any
cases
or
even
their
quality
of
work.
That's
not
what
it's
that
issue
for
me.
What's
that
issue
for
me
is
just
the
substance
of
this
bid
and
that's
all
I
don't
want
to
take
anything
away
from
what
any
case
has
done
in
the
past
whether
it
was
good
or
bad
I'm
sure
that
they're,
just
like
anyone
else
that
tries
to
get
their
jobs
done
on
time
and
do
a
you
know
an
exceptional
level
of
quality,
so
they
can
retain
future
work.
It's
just
this
vid
I.
K

With
Councilman
dimming
and
like
I
said
earlier,
you
know
we're
asking
to
consider
a
resolution
put
before
this
council
and
one
of
the
criterias
to
accept
the
lowest
and
best
bid
I,
don't
think
it
falls
under
the
best
bid,
in
my
opinion,
reviewing
the
information
before
us.
It
may
be
the
lowest
at
this
point,
but
it's
not
even
it's
questionable
whether
it
will
be
the
lowest
when
the
job
is
completed
and
I
can't
support
the
resolution
either.

Two-
and
we
probably
may
need
a
week
or
so
to
we
may
need
to
table
the
issue
to
decide,
but
the
problem
with
just
automatically
accepting
the
next
bid
is
as
opposed
to
rebidding
everything
is.
Then
you
get
into
the
inspector
general
saying.
Well,
why
didn't
you?
You
could
have
saved
this
amount
of
money?
Why
didn't
you
read
it?
So
nothing.

O
Sir,
there
there's
a
bank
involved
in
this
Federal
Savings
alone
and
I've
had
communication
with
them.
Their
main
concern
was
that
we
were
not
going
to
demolish
the
house,
and
the
house
is
not
a
part
of
this
code
case,
but
they
agreed
to
let
us
go
ahead
and
clean
up
everything
else
and
then
just
add
it
back
to
the
taxes.
