F
Good
morning,
good
morning,
mayor,
City
Council
Members
city
manager,
Porter.
As
you
know,
we
are
concluding
our
cultural
assessment
that
we
started
about
over
a
year
ago.
We
have
both
us
our
vendors
that
were
able
to
provide
that
assessment.
For
us.
The
Kaleidoscope
group
here
with
me
today
is
Miss
Chris
George
and
Dr
Jesse
Lee
and
they're,
going
to
kind
of
go
over
some
of
the
findings
from
our
initial
assessment
and
just
provide
more
insight
into
what
they
were
able
to
gather
as
they
conducted
this
assessment.
G
Good
morning
Council,
thank
you
for
having
us
back
again.
Okay,
so
we
are
just
want
to
really
say.
Thank
you.
This
has
been
an
incredible
process
and
there
has
been
incredible
participation
and
support
of
this
work
throughout
the
last
year
by
all
of
your
leaders
and
departments.
I
will
look
forward
to
sharing
that
with
you.
A
E
D
G
G
So,
as
you
know,
we
we
were
here
in
January
and
we
shared
a
little
bit
of
a
progress
update
and
at
that
time
we
shared
really
what
your
North
Star
was,
why
you
were
doing
this,
which
is
just
as
important
as
what
you're
doing,
and
so
this
was
your
why
you
really
wanted
to
look
at
how
you
challenged
and
thought
and
operate
and
really
take
that
to
the
next
level
better,
reflecting
the
communities
you
serve,
providing
exceptional
service
in
all
that
you
do
improving
your
work,
products
and
ideas,
reinvigorating
a
positive
and
supportive
culture
building
on
some
of
the
culture
work,
that's
already
been
taken,
place,
be
a
workplace
destination
for
all
people
here
and
leverage
Dei
is
a
competitive
advantage
and
really
use
it
as
part
of
telling
the
Clearwater
compelling
story.
G
G
Okay,
there
we
go
so
your
vision
of
success
shared
this
already.
This
is
your
North
Star
and
everything
you
do
is
really
lining
up
towards
that
North
Star,
City
of
Clearwater
being
committed
to
providing
opportunities
for
all
walks
of
life,
to
empower
employees
to
play
their
goals
and
creating
a
thriving
community
of
shared
voices
and
diverse
thought.
So
with
that
now
we
said
all
right
now
that
you
know
where
you
want
to
go
and
that
Vision
being
developed
by
a
lot
of
different
voices
in
the
city
that
work
here.
G
G
We
conducted
a
Dei
survey
which
had
an
exceptional
response
rate
of
70,
which
is
at
the
higher
as
shown
of
responses,
we
conducted
22
focus
groups
with
over
a
hundred
participants,
so
we
got
a
lot
of
voices
that
kind
of
gave
color
to
what
was
learned
in
the
survey
as
well
as
we
look
at
looking
at
talent
management
reviews,
a
lot
of
documents
that
we
looked
at
around
your
policies,
processes,
practices
and
then
finally,
we
looked
at
your
demographics.
What
is
the
composition
of
your
Workforce
and
where
did
you
have
opportunity
to
be
even
better?
G
So
with
all
of
that
work,
we
said
all
right.
Let's
look
at
the
foundation
that
you
had.
You
had
conducted
a
culture
survey
the
previous
year
we
built
on
some
of
those
findings
where
some
opportunity
really
looking
at
the
morale
and
building
the
morale.
So
these
were
some
of
the
survey
responses.
I
believe
that
were
garnered
from
that
survey
and
then,
from
there
we
looked
at
seven
drivers
of
inclusion.
G
G
So
with
everything
we
always
start
with
the
Positive,
you
actually
have
a
really
strong
Foundation
people
like
working
here.
People
really
believe
that
they're
making
a
difference,
they're
proud
to
be
here.
They
like
their
jobs.
They
like
the
camaraderie,
so
you'll,
see
a
lot
of
that
here.
A
lot
of
people
actually
give
the
city
credit
for
a
lot
of
the
work
that
has
already
been
done
around
Dei
you've
had
it
on
infrastructure
around
that,
since
2008
and
people
actually
see
it
in
the
people
practices.
So
they
appreciate
that.
G
So
then,
with
that
strong
Foundation,
we
found
some
opportunities
and
they
kind
of
were
in
four
buckets
looking
at
representation.
So
while
there
is
representation,
there's
some
opportunities
for
it,
based
on
looking
at
the
community
cohort
availability,
we
also
saw
that,
while
you
have
a
Dei
department,
they
were
really
over
taxed
and
maybe
focusing
on
some
of
the
wrong
things.
G
So
if
we
put
them
in
the
right
situation,
they
could
even
Advance
Dei
in
a
greater
way
and
then
culture
looking
at
how
we
can
build
on
the
morale
so
that
people
of
all
backgrounds
can
really
work
well
together
and
be
high
performing
and
then
lastly,
trust.
How
can
we
make
sure
that,
as
people
start
to
see
that
they
can
achieve
their
potential
here,
work
well
together?
That,
then,
will
also
build
trust.
G
So
that's
great
news
for
you:
you're
already
moving
the
needle
there
and
then
the
last
two
really
around
looking
at
making
sure
that
people
understand
how
equity
and
inclusion
are
really
a
part
of
the
day-to-day
process
and
work
and
how
they
people
can
start
to
think
about
it
proactively
instead
of
reactively
and
then,
lastly,
making
sure
that
senior
leaders
and
management
are
aligned
with
the
things
that
are
important
in
the
workplace
as
it
relates
to
supervisors
and
individual
contributors.
G
So,
in
other
words,
everybody's
working
towards
the
thing,
the
same
things
with
the
same
priorities
and
goals.
So
these
were
your
key
areas
of
opportunity
and,
as
we
looked
at
the
representation
I'm
sorry
at
the
recommendations,
we
came
up
with
about
eight
buckets
for
recommendations
for
you
to
get
even
better.
G
G
And
then
these
last
recommendations
really
are
targeted
for
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
in
the
city.
It's
really
about
building
that
office
that
we
talked
about
restructuring
and
refocusing
them
that
is
underway
and
then
putting
some
supports
in
place
for
Education
opportunities
strategies,
events,
things
that
are
going
to
be
important
to
build
the
city's
diversity
and
and
the
commitment
and
then
finally
making
sure
that
there's
a
committee
in
place
that
represents
all
of
your
departments
and
your
stakeholders,
so
that
you
really
have
a
real-time
pulse
and
you
can
continue
to
be
guiding
and
building
that
strategy.
G
So,
with
all
of
that
said,
we're
working
on
those
recommendations.
Our
next
steps
are
really
going
to
be
to
create
two
things:
create
a
strategy
for
the
city
overall
and
for
different
departments.
G
So
we
will
be
sharing
these
overall
findings
with
leaders
today
this
afternoon
actually,
and
then
we
will
also
be
meeting
with
them
in
one-on-one
settings
during
the
month
of
March
to
share
their
very
specific
Department
level
findings
and
have
them
create
a
very
tailored
action
plan
for
them
to
be
able
to
build
and
integrate
Dei
into
what
they
do
every
day
and
into
their
leadership
and
as
well
as
have
a
communication
plan
and
then
relaunching
the
diversity
leadership
committee
to
help
these
very
busy
people
over
here.
That's
the
report.
G
D
Thank
you
for
that
presentation.
It
was.
It
was
great
information
on
your
last
slide.
We've
got
the
next
step,
so
you've
got
all
the
kind
of
some
data
and
some
overall
findings
and
I
think
the
most
important
thing,
then,
is
the
Strategic
steps.
What
are
we
going
to
do
to
improve
and
grow
and
be
the
best
that
we
can
be
so
we've
got
this
next
steps,
but
there
isn't
a
timeline
on
here.
Can
you
flesh
out
some
of
the
timeline
yeah.
G
That's
a
great
question:
we
will
actually
be
finally
finalizing
that
strategy
during
the
month
of
March
working
with
Odes
and
human
resources,
and
then
the
department
leaders
themselves.
So
then
Jesse
and
I
will
probably
be
back
here
for
one
more
event
to
kind
of
share
where
the
where
the
city
should
be
going
with,
that.
What
that
looks
like
and
just
as
importantly,
how
to
make
sure
you
integrate
it
into
your
strategic
plan.
J
Good
morning,
Council
Billy
Kirkpatrick
human
resources
I
have
our
vendor
on
the
line
so
questions
at
the
end.
In
January,
we
issued
a
formal,
an
informal
request
for
responses
for
executive
recruiting
services
for
the
city
manager.
Two
qualified
responses
were
received
and
evaluated
by
HR
staff.
Gov
HR
USA
was
selected.
J
B
K
I
just
want
to
talk
about
I
just
want
to
have
a
discussion,
not
really
questions
at
this
point.
Okay,.
B
Some
of
the
others.
I
mean
are
really
small,
Plymouth,
8900
residents
and
I
know
this
group
was
recommended,
I
did
reach
out
and
I
think
you
were
all
copied.
I
did
reach
out
to
the
mayor
of
Lakeland
and
ask
what
he
how
he
felt
about
his
experience.
J
D
I
mean
I
I
made
a
note
of
the
size
of
the
municipalities
as
well.
They
do
have
a
number
of
counties
and
they
do
have
a
number
from
the
Midwest
that
you
and
I
might
be
familiar
with,
but
but
that
was
a
concern,
but
they
yeah
not
really
a
larger
municipality
but
County
Government
and
they
have
worked
with
Pinellas
County
government.
No.
H
H
However,
the
last
six
to
eight
weeks
has
given
me
an
opportunity
to
rethink,
and
in
the
last
few
weeks,
through
no
fault
of
her
own
has
inherited
many
challenges
and,
in
the
last
few
weeks,
she's
had
to
deal
with
a
Relentless
onslaught,
critical
and
complicated
challenges
and
she's,
faced
them
with
professionalism,
transparency
and
hoist.
H
Her
previous
role
in
the
HR
department
is
very
evident
in
the
way
you
negotiate
and
your
ability
to
interact
with
all
the
different
departments,
and
so
having
said
that,
I
think
she's
proven
to
be
a
very,
very
strong
woman.
And
after
that,
D
I
presentation.
H
I
think
it
would
be
a
great
step
to
promote
a
strong,
capable
woman
in
this
position,
but
I
also
want
to
mention
that
the
last
two
searches
were
I,
think
and
success,
and
that
wasn't
the
best
of
times
our
environment
has
changed
and
I
am
not
confident
that
we
can
find
their
candidate
with
this
environment.
Of
all
the
challenges
that
we
have
over
200,
empty
Spa
staff,
member
staff
positions
and
so
I,
don't
want
to
fall
on
that
trap
was
always
the
grass
greener
on
the
other
side
and
I.
H
Think
time
is
of
the
essence
as
well
having
an
interim
city
manager
and
waiting
for
the
process
to
get
a
new
one
that
may
or
may
not
be
better.
It
will
put
us
in
a
position
that
will
limit
our
ability
to
deal
with
these
very
issues
that
we're
facing
so
I
am
very
confident
in
in
the
way
I
feel
about
having
Miss
Poirier
just
receive
this
position.
That's
how
I
feel
after
the
last
few
weeks.
K
So
I'm
not
going
to
repeat
everything
that
council
member
to
shade
has
said
but
I
agree
whole
horribly.
You
know,
I,
think
Jennifer
poyer
is
she's
gone
through
the
trial
by
fire,
and
you
know
we
want
somebody
that
understands
our
city
and
understands
Clearwater
she's
been
here
a
while
and
and
knows
that
and
she's
handled
these
issues
that
have
come
up.
K
I
thought
professionally,
with
tat
and
and
she's
very
responsive,
at
least
to
me
on
everything
that
I've
brought
forward
to
her
since
she's,
been
in
her
city
manager.
So
I
was
going
to
suggest
today
that
Thursday
night
we
consider
just
making
her
a
new
city
manager,
I
think
she's
a
good
fit
for
Clearwater.
We
don't
have
to
go
through
the.
Are
they
a
good
fit
thing
again
and
you
know
the
cities
in
flux
right
now
we
have
1800,
or
so
employees
and
they're.
K
Looking
for
somebody
to
guide
the
ship
and
the
sooner
that
we
can
make
that
happen,
the
better
for
Clearwater
and
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
Jennifer's
done
a
great
job.
So
far
I
know
she'll
do
a
great
job
in
the
future,
so
my
vote
Thursday
would
just
be
to
get
on
with
it
and
make
her
the
city
manager.
B
Not
at
all
said,
she's
been
thrown
into
very
difficult
circumstances
and
I
need
to
think
about
between
now
and
Thursday,
and
that
is
not
a
knock
against
you.
I
want
to
make
that
perfectly
clear.
B
As
chairman
of
Ruth
Eckerd
Hall,
we
had
you
know
our
executive
director
leave
it's
been
and
we
had
Susan
Crockett,
who
had
been
with
the
hall
for
31
years,
done
pretty
much
every
job.
B
One
at
least
did
the
due
diligence
and
went
through
a
process,
and
so
I
need
to
think
about
that.
You
are
newer
to
the
position.
Obviously,
and
you
know,
I
love
having
somebody
that
I
know
work
ethic
decisions.
B
B
B
B
D
D
I
too,
have
been
incredibly
impressed
by
Jennifer's
performance
in
her
role
for
of
interim
city
manager.
She
has
shown
great
leadership
in
addressing
cool
issues.
She
has
shown
incredible
transparency
and
urgency
and
the
last
six
to
eight
weeks.
It's
also
reminded
me
that
these
qualities
are
very
difficult
to
determine
in
interviewing
candidates
and
therefore
how
important
and
valuable
it
is
to
have
first-hand
experience
with
candidates
in
their
performance,
and
so
I
am
hopeful
that
Jennifer
will
apply
for
the
position
given
her
performance.
L
M
K
So
just
a
thought,
so
we're
discussing
this
I
appreciate
everybody's
point
of
view.
My
concern
is
this:
with
everybody
very
happy
with
what
Jennifer
has
done
and
and
then
we
proceed
forward
on
a
search,
I
mean
they're,
going
to
look
back
the
anybody,
that's
interested
and
see
that
now
they
might
not
have
a
good
chance
since
we're
all
leaning
and
very
appreciative
of
what
Jennifer's
done
so
far.
It's
just
kind
of
keep
that
in
mind
as
well.
Also,
you
know
I
have
concern
about
Jennifer.
K
C
Good
morning,
Dad
Slaughter
police
chief,
this
agreement
with
Jones
Lang
LaSalle
Americas
for
they're
the
management
company
for
Countryside
mall
at
27001,
US,
19
North.
This
is
the
facilitate
the
Clearwater
Police
Department,
the
solid
waste
program
for
a
shred
event
that
will
occur
on
April
22nd
between
8
A.M
and
2
p.m.
This
agreement's
been
reviewed
by
legal
and
risk
in
in
PD
and
they're
all
recommending
approval.
This
agreement
has
to
come
for
Council
because
of
the
hold
harmless
and
indemnity
agreement.
C
Morning,
the
department
is
regularly
called
to
respond
and
need
and
mediate
disputes
associated
with
protest
activities
and
the
ability
for
other
citizens
to
Ingress
in
egress
the
bread
and
Roses
Women's
Health
Center
at
1560
South
Highland
Avenue.
The
protest
activities
have
become
a
little
more
escalating
in
the
past
several
months
and
is
creating
an
unsafe
situation
when
the
vehicles
enter
and
leave
the
location.
The
police
department
has
personally
observed
protesters
repeatedly
crossing
the
driveway
and
disrupting
the
Ingress
of
the
vehicles
and
creating
an
unsafe
condition.
N
P
Q
C
A
N
I
C
On
the
agenda
item
two,
if
anybody
wants
to
see
the
remainder
as
well,
so
there's
also
been
repeatedly
reports
about
protesters
knocking
on
car
windows
and
putting
material
into
open
windows
and,
at
the
time
when
they're,
ingressing
and
ingressing
the
properties,
the
there's
an
ability
to
utilize
the
trespass
statute,
because
it
is
a
public
right-of-way
area.
So
so
that
is
not
a
tool
that's
available
to
us
so
to
protect
the
right
of
the
people
to
protest
and
for
the
vehicles
to
safely
enter
and
exit
the
the
facility.
C
The
PD
is
seeking
to
amend,
ordinance,
28
10
and
to
establish
a
five
foot
vehicle
buffer
zone
on
the
north
and
south
side
of
the
driveway,
so
that
zone
would
be
in
place
Monday
through
Saturday
from
7
A.M
to
6
p.m.
At
1516,
South,
Highland,
Avenue
only
and
case
law
supports
this
action.
When
there
is
a
substantial
government
interest
which
we
believe
there
is
people
who
violate
the
ordinance
would
be
subject
to
a
Class
III
violation
which
is
130
plus
a
little
cost.
C
D
I
just
had
a
question
or
a
minor
some,
a
minor
suggested
change
by
adding
Health
Centers
to
the
list
of
entities
that
are
protected
from
loud
and
raucous
noise.
So
we've
got
like
hospitals,
Church
any
school
or
public
building
public
park
in
any
church
or
hospital,
and
if
we
could
add
Health
Center
or
in
any
occupied
dwelling,
that
can
be
heard
at
a
distance
of
100
feet
or
more
I.
Think
that
might
help
a
little
bit
as
well.
R
Well,
I
mean
I,
think
looking
I
think
looking
at
that
is
fine,
I
think
that's
a
good
idea,
but
the
ordinance
that's
currently
before
you
is
really
designed
for
vehicle,
Ingress
and
egress
and
not
necessarily
focused
on
noise
issues.
My
suggestion
is
that,
as
we
look
at
noise
issues
that
should
really
be
part
of
a
more
comprehensive
noise
package.
I
know
the
chief
has
dealt
with
a
lot
of
unrelated
noise
problems,
for
example
bars
on
the
beach.
Sometimes
we
know
we
get
complaints
in
residential
neighborhoods.
R
K
My
question
is:
how
did
you
come
up
with
a
five
foot
setback
versus
three
foot,
something
like
that
how'd?
You
are.
C
We
discussing
among
staff,
we
kind
of
actually
started
with
three
realized.
Three
wasn't
going
to
be:
two
was
going
to
be
enough,
then
kind
of
looked
at
six
and
then
went
and
basically
settled
at
five.
We
thought
five
was
a
reasonable
out
of
distance
for
the
cars
to
Ingress
and
to
allows
people's
message
to
be
heard.
It
really
balances
both
okay.
L
C
Potentially,
but
the
purpose
of
this
ordinance
isn't
to
reduce
costs
of
police
departments
actually
to
address
a
safety
concern.
So
that's
that's
the
that's
the
goal
and
I
suspect
we'll
still
have
a
presence
there.
It
just
gives
us
a
tool
to
manage
and
mitigate
and
allow
both
sides
to
exercise
their
rights.
L
And
I
have
seen
rushing
the
cars
as
they
come
through,
so
that
is
a
real
concern.
B
B
Civil,
otherwise
I
will
I
will
kick
people
out
of
this
chamber
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
be
signs
in
here
and
frankly,
the
the
language
I,
don't
mean
foul
language,
but
the
language
I've
heard
from
both
groups
is
not
helpful.
B
Both
sides
I
mean
it
just
doesn't
and
I,
don't
think
it's
changing
anyone's
mind
on
either
on
either
side.
So
I
don't
see
that
it's
very
positive
or
impactful.
S
Good
morning,
mayor
council,
Scott
Ellis
fire
chief
Clearwater
fire
rescue.
The
item
before
you
is
to
request
approval
for
the
purchase
of
the
personal
protective
equipment
Ensemble
for
our
personnel,
which
includes
coats
and
pants.
This
requested
the
amount
of
271
thousand
and
sixty
dollars
to
Municipal
emergency
service
at
Pinellas
Park
for
the
replacement
of
bunker
gear,
as
well
as
for
our
new
hires.
S
Currently
we're
replacing
about
30
sets
this
year
that
have
reached
this
shelf
life
Guided
by
NFPA
1851,
which
is
about
10
years
on
a
bunker
gear
and
we're
hiring
approximately
13
due
to
retirement.
The
cost
per
set
is
4928.33,
which
gives
us
enough
to
purchase
55
sets.
This
dollar
figure
will
be
fired.
S
The
needed
funds
until
July
31st
2023,
which
is
when
the
contract
expires,
funds,
are
available
for
this
item
in
the
CIP
budget,
91261
and
Pinellas
County
provides
reimbursement
of
11.27
percent,
which
is
a
percentage
of
unincorporated
County
that
we
observe
with
that
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Any.
T
T
Second,
reading
of
this
annexation
was
delayed
due
to
the
applicant
constructing
a
single
family
dwelling
on
that
property,
and
since
that
time
the
certificate
of
occupancy
has
been
issued
and
due
to
the
amount
of
time
that
has
passed
since
that
first
reading,
new
ordinance
numbers
have
been
assigned
to
reflect
the
current
year
and
we
will
be
scheduling
a
third
and
final
reading
on
March
16th
questions.
T
U
Mayor
council
member,
this
is
our
project
for
upgrading
our
telephone
system.
We've
been
using
the
Avaya
system
for
more
than
25
years
and
a
facility
and
we're
moving
to
a
new
platform.
U
U
Other
departments
in
the
Enterprise
that
take
calls
from
citizens.
It
will
entail
some
redoing
of
numbers,
so
everyone
is
prepared.
Originally,
when
we
opened
the
MSB,
we
bought
a
large
block
of
numbers
and
a
very
consistent
562.
We've
no
longer
been
able
to
maintain
that
prefix
we'll
be
purchasing
new
numbers.
Some
will
remain
the
same.
Many
other
numbers.
Q
Today,
I'm
going
to
provide
we're
going
to
provide
a
an
update
on
the
Water
Reclamation
facilities,
master
plan
that
we're
working
on
and
we're
going
to
request
approval
from
you
all
to
move
forward
with
the
recommendation
to
consolidate
the
East
and
Marshall
Street
Water
Reclamation
facilities
into
our
Northeast
Water
Reclamation
facility.
Note
this
makes
we
reduce
some
slides
a
little
bit,
so
it
may
appear
slightly
different
than
the
one
we
provided
you
all
in
one-on-ones
back
in
December.
However,
the
content
and
the
recommendations
remain
unchanged.
Can.
Q
P
Q
This
is
a
critical
decision
point
in
the
project,
because
it's
a
subsequent
analyzes
and
recommendations
are
going
to
depend
on
which
direction
we
go
here
today.
At
this
time,
I'd
like
to
introduce
Miss,
Amanda
schwerman,
the
project
manager
with
our
consultant
black
and
Beach,
and
she
will
deliver
the
presentation
detailing
how
we
arrived
at
this
recommendation.
V
To
build
a
framework
for
decision
making,
the
Consulting
team
in
the
city
collaborated
to
define
the
master,
plan's
goals
and
objectives.
These
goals
based
are
based
on
the
city's
overall
goals
and
are
in
no
particular
order.
They
include
service
reliability
and
resilience,
sustainability,
financial
responsibility,
safety
and
quality
based
on
the
age
of
the
facilities
and
the
upcoming
Investments
required
to
meet
the
renewal
replacement
needs
at
the
facilities.
The
team
determined.
V
It
was
an
opportune
time
to
consider
consolidation,
one
of
the
first
steps
of
the
master
plan,
including
determining
the
most
appropriate
configuration
for
facilities
facilities,
including
their
serving
sirens.
The
sixth
consolidation
scenarios
were
identified
by
City
staff
and
analyzed
for
consideration.
V
V
V
This
makes
the
facility
vulnerable
to
climate
change
and
storm
surge.
The
color
lines
indicate
the
storm
surge
elevations,
corresponding
to
five
different.
The
five
different
hurricane
categories-
if
hurricane
Ian,
for
example,
had
made
landfall
on
Pinellas
County,
instead
of
Lee
county
is
likely
to
stacilities
would
have
been
underwater.
V
The
Marshall
Street
facility
is
less
obvious,
but
very
similar
vulnerability
to
storm
surge.
The
category
four
or
five
hurricane
would
have
submerged
this
facility
as
well.
The
impacts
to
these
two
facilities
being
submerged
by
storm
surge,
include:
loss
of
treatment,
ability
overflowing
of
raw
sewage
equipment,
damage
and
limited
access
to
the
site.
The
Lee
County
facility
is
impacted
by
Hurricane.
Ian
were
completely
out
of
service
for
several
weeks
and
are
still
at
limited
capacity.
Even
now.
V
V
The
second
criteria
I'd
like
to
discuss
is
financial
responsibility
should
be
prepared
for
each
scenario
using
a
classified
standards
for
the
American
Association
of
cost
engineering.
These
costs
reflect
the
investment
required
by
the
city
over
the
next
30
Years,
and
they
include
operations
of
maintenance.
V
These
are
very
similar
for
each
scenario
and
reflect
the
largest
cost
under
each
scenario
as
well.
Land
acquisition,
though
a
parcel
was
not
selected.
Costs
for
land
acquisition
was
included
for
scenario,
five
and
six
Capital
costs
for
the
Water
Reclamation
facilities.
These
are
costs
needed
to
expand
the
facilities
or
build
new
facilities,
travel
costs
for
the
collection
system.
These
are
costs
to
build
pump
stations
and
pipelines
to
convey
the
Wastewater
to
the
new
facility
and
then
finally,
renewal
and
replacement
costs.
V
V
This
was
one
of
the
drivers
that
made
it
feasible
to
even
consider
consolidation.
Finally,
the
hardening
of
the
facilities
to
climate
change
is
included.
These
are
cost
to
raise
sea
walls
and
raise
equipment
outside
of
the
storm
surge.
However,
these
would
only
really
be
impactful
for
lower
category
storms.
V
These
costs
were
provided
to
the
city's
array
consultant
to
review
the
impacts
for
each
scenario
based
on
the
2022
sufficiency
analysis,
which
recommended
an
increased
rate
of
three
and
a
half
percent
per
year
over
the
next
10
years.
The
impacts
of
these
Investments
needed
the
facilities
range
from
1.2
percent
to
2.6
per
year,
mirroring
the
preliminary
costs.
The
scenario
that
the
lowest
impact
on
rates
will
be
scenario
4,
and
this
area
with
the
highest
impact
on
Race
scenario
by.
V
So
with
no
further
delay,
the
results
of
the
consolidation
scenario
were
shown
on
the
screen
scenario:
2,
which
includes
decommissioning
the
East
and
Marshall
Street
facilities.
Transferring
the
flow
to
the
Northeast
facilities
was
ranked
the
highest
we'll
be
in
the
seats
at
the
least
expensive
scenario.
The
scenarios
scored
the
highest
in
maintenance,
reliability
and
resilience,
ease
of
operations,
climate
and
environmental,
environmental
vulnerability
and
public
perception.
V
Even
though
the
evaluation
results
recommend
consolidation,
there
are
several
benefits
and
cautions
to
be
aware
of
starting
with
the
cautions.
The
design
of
the
Consolidated
facility
and
transmission
means
will
need
to
account
for
the
potential
increase
of
consequence
due
to
catastrophic
failures,
we're
basically
putting
all
of
our
eggs
in
one
basket
that
the
basket
can
be
designed
to
ensure
reliability,
redundancy
and
reduce
the
risk
of
breaking
eggs.
V
An
increased
rate
of
1.3
percent
per
year
will
likely
be
required
to
implement
consolidation
and
operate
the
north
facility
for
the
next
30
Years.
Finally,
there
will
be
some
short-term
impacts
to
roadways
as
the
transmission
Mains
are
constructed.
However,
the
transmission
means
can
be
the
routes
for
the
transmission
means
can
be
selected
to
reduce
those
impacts
to
drivers.
V
We
believe
the
benefits
outweigh
the
cautions,
with
the
biggest
benefit
being
a
reduced
risk
of
catastrophic
failure
and
contamination
due
to
storm
surge.
The
second
biggest
benefit
is
that
it
lowers
the
overall
cost
to
the
city.
It
also
increases
the
city's
ability
to
optimize
energy
consumption
and
reduce
greenhouse
gases
and
finally
gives
the
city
an
opportunity
to
coordinate,
with
both
the
planning
and
economic
development
departments
to
repurpose
those
City
properties
for
Parks
low
income.
Housing
Etc
includes
our
presentation,
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
B
H
V
Absolutely
so,
with
the
expansion
in
Northeast,
which
will
be
required
for
to
accept
all
the
flows,
we
would
likely
recommend
a
parallel
train,
which
would
mean
you
have
almost
two
implants
on
site.
So
if
one
went
down
for
whatever
reason,
you'd
have
a
parallel
backup
and
we
can
also
make
sure
to
include
redundancy
and
transmission
Mains
and
pump
stations,
backup
generators,
storage,
tanks
Etc
as
the
design
occurred.
For
that.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
as
much
resilience
and
redundancy
that
we
can
build
in
effectively
and
efficiently
would
be
included.
V
B
V
Book
and
well,
we
we
went
about
this
in
a
couple
different
ways:
the
consultant
team
ranked
them
ourselves
and
the
utility
director
ranked
his,
and
then
we
had
all
the
senior
leadership
from
utilities
rank
as
well,
and
we
looked
at
them
and
kind
of
averaged
those
scores.
We
did
run
a
sensitivity
analysis
to
see
if
increasing
percentages
for
financial
responsibility
actually
was
one
of
those,
and
it
didn't
really
move
the
needle
very
much
so
that
this
came
from
a
collaboration
of
all
of
the
utility
leadership
and
the
Consulting
team.
V
As
soon
as
possible,
due
to
the
risk
from
storm
surge,
however,
design
would
have
to
happen
in
the
construction
so
most
likely,
this
wouldn't
be
implemented
within
the
next
five
years,
but
design
could
start
as
soon
as
the
master
plan
was
completed.
There
are
several
pieces
that
have
to
be
designed
are.
V
Actually
and
the
Emerald
Coast
Utilities
Authority,
which
is
in
Pensacola
Florida
I,
did
this
about
10
years
ago.
They
had
a
facility
that
was
damaged
by
a
hurricane.
It
was
right
on
their
Barrier
Island
and
they
had
FEMA
funding
and
they
were
able
to
move
it
well,
Inland
outside
of
storm
surge
and
any
impacts,
and
there
are
several
other
utilities
that
are
actively
looking
at
it
in
the
State
of
Florida.
Right
now
has
funding
for
vulnerable
facilities
and
a
new
regulation.
That's
coming
out
to
help
with
identifying
the
funding
on
that.
B
V
K
It
was
eye-opening
the
one-on-ones
going
through
it
and
I.
You
know,
I
think
the
most
Vivid
was
the
the
graphics
that
you
showed
in
a
you
know.
Force
5
hurricane
would
cover
those
Marshall
Street
and
Courtney
Campbell,
the
two
plants
completely.
K
So
the
other
thing
that
was
interesting
was
that,
as
the
mayor
was
saying,
the
cost
concern
I'm
like
well.
What
what's
this
going
to
cost
us,
and
you
told
us
that
at
that
time
it
was
actually
going
to
cost
less
to
do
this
into
fix.
You
know
to
continue
on
in
our
the
way,
we're
doing
it
so
I
think
we
ought
to
get
on
with
it
and
because
what
happened
south
of
us
if
that
hit
us,
that
would
be
very
scary.
D
V
Environmental
study
would
need
to
be
conducted
to
look
at
those
things.
We
know
the
Marshall
Street.
For
example,
there
was
a
coal
gas
plant
there
and
so
some
studies
that
need
to
be
need
to
confirm
that
for
the
housing
there's
still
a
storm
surge
area,
so
the
design
of
the
housing
would
need
to
be
elevated
in
those
components
as
well.
V
D
And
then
oh,
the
higher
short-term
capital
costs,
so
you
have
an
increase
of
1.3
percent
per
year,
so
an
increase
of
what?
What
are
we
talking
about
financially.
V
So
this
would
be
on
top
of
the
three
and
a
half
over
the
next
10
years,
so
it
would
be
what
5.2,
on
average
every
year.
B
D
I
have
one
other
question
too:
it's
it's
doesn't
affect
the
decision
making,
but
it's
more
for
clarification
on
the
evaluation
criteria.
So
you've
got
climate
and
environmental
vulnerability
is
just
a
few
percentage
points
below
ease
of
operations
and
you've
got
under
definition,
complexity
of
system
configuration.
Is
that
like
a
learning
curve
or
what
what
is
that
I
mean
once
people
know
how
to
operate
it
is
it?
Does
it
really
mean
like
Hands-On
ease
of
operations,
or
you
know?
What's
the
distinction
there
I
mean
well.
V
E
A
point
Marquita
Humphrey
to
the
Clearwater
Housing
Authority
board
as
a
public
housing
recipient
representative
with
a
term
to
expire,
March,
2nd
2027,
council
members.
We
have
worked
with
the
cha
to
identify
an
individual
who
qualifies
in
this
position
and
she
was
the
only
applicant
that
we
were
able
to
receive.
E
council
members,
Miss
Bray
had
to
resign
due
to
lack
of
time
commitment,
and
so
we
had
an
application
on
file
which
was
Robert
Kenny.
And
although
we
have
posted
on
social
media
to
seek
more
applicants,
this,
he
was
the
only
applicant
we
had
on
file.
E
A
point
Charlene
Harrison
as
a
creative
Pinellas
representative
to
the
public,
Art
and
Design
board
to
fill
the
remainder
of
an
unexpired
term
through
February
29
2024.
The
individual
Danny
olda,
who
was
sitting
in
that
position,
is
no
longer
with
creative
Pinellas.
So
Miss
Harrison
is
the
replacement.
E
Appoint
an
individual
to
the
Community
Development
board
to
fill
an
unexpired
term
through
February,
29
2024
and
an
individual
with
a
term
to
expire.
March,
2nd,
2027.,
Mr
Flannery
has
been
serving
in
that
and
on
the
board,
for
quite
some
time
unfortunately
had
to
resign.
He
is
traveling
and
his
travel
commitments
are
a
little
bit
longer
than
he
thought
so
he
went
ahead
and
resigned
and
Mary
love
has
terms
out
from
the
board.
So
for
your
consideration,
we
have
Diane
akinelli
friends,
affinius
and
Andrew
Huff
for
your
consideration.
B
And
was
Mr
hudkin
made
aware
of
the
fact
that
these
occurred
and
did
he.
B
Okay,
listen
to
Phoenix
and
she
talks
about
being
on
the
park
of
recport
I.
Do
we
know
that
she.
B
B
E
K
We
have
one
opening
on
the
Community
Development
board.
I
thought
we
had.
E
Between
so
we've
got
one
unexpired
term
and
that's
Mr
Flannery
and
then
the
term,
the
full
term
and.
B
E
Appointed
an
individual
to
the
library
board
with
the
time
what
they
termed
expire,
March,
2nd,
2027.,
Miss,
Kelly
mclay,
is
available
and
is
interested
in
being
reappointed,
and
we
also
had
another
application
on
file.
Amanda
Elin
for
your
consideration.
B
E
B
J
D
D
Did
have
a
question
the
friends
received
into
the
record
means
what?
Because
I
just
want
to
understand
public
access
to
comments?
That's
all.
E
So
the
comments
that
are
part
of
minutes
that
are
received
they
will
they're
not
part
of
the
they're
not
available
until
the
minutes
of
the
meeting
are
made
available
to
the
public
so
they're
available
in
that
in
that
regard.
So
once
the
minutes
are
drafted,
they're
attached
to
them
and
they're
available
to
the
public.
E
It
in
terms
of
text
there
is
I,
think
I
think
I
have
it
at
1200
words.
So
there
is
a
cut
off
I'm
not
going
to
be
able
to
ramble
on
but
yeah.
So
the
all
of
the
whatever
they
have
entered
in
the
under
their
comments
would
be
provided.
M
M
So
if
Council
has
any
ideas
or
suggestions
on
who
in
the
business
Community,
they
should
engage.
If
you
could,
please
give
me
that
lesson.
I'll
make
sure
I
forward
you
that
they
do
expect
to
start
sometime
next
week.
H
So
during
the
campaign
2022,
there
was
a
lot
of
discussion
and
conversations
about
the
elections
and
city
council
ranking
versus
runoffs.
The
the
amount
that
was
needed
to
raise
for
a
campaign
discussion
was
robust
and
it
poured
over
into
the
community
as
well
as
a
dice,
and
one
of
the
questions
that
was
raised
was
well
who
can
afford
to
run
in
this
day
and
age
and
I.
Think
the
better
question
is
who
can
afford
to
win?
H
And
the
answer
is
the
very
few,
certainly
not
let's
say
the
45
year
old,
father
of
two
college-bound
teams
or
the
35
year
old
mother,
with
two
preschoolers
or
the
30
year
old
college
grad
with
student
loans
unless
they
are
independently
wealthy
and
therefore
I
think
that
this
is
a
very
restricting
thing
that
we
have
that
this
representation
is
not
accessible
to
the
vast
majority
of
our
citizens
and
I.
Think
that's
sad.
H
H
Clinches
and
I
discussed
this
with
Mr
Margolis
to
ask
for
his
counsel
and
he
came
up
with
a
statement
that
I'm
I'm
going
to
give
him
full
credit
for
because
it
really
resonated
with
me-
and
it
was
the
fact
that
the
complexity
of
this
city
far
exceeds
its
size
and
I,
truly,
truly
believe
that
not
only
as
a
resident
but
as
somebody
who's
been
here
as
a
councilwoman
for
one
year,
Clearwater
is
unique
and
it's
challenges
are
unique
and
so
I
just
want
to
go
over
some
of
those
unique
challenges
that
clear
water
faces,
and
that
is
we
are
custodians
of
the
top
rated
Beach,
and
that
is
a
big
responsibility.
H
To
maintain
that
we
have
diverse
residential
communities
with
equally
diverse
challenges
and
needs.
We
have
coming
up
three
CRA
districts,
a
neglected,
Air,
Park,
marinas
and
harbors
that
we
have
to
deal
with
unusual
Charter
restrictions.
We
we
have
to
build
a
new
city
hall,
Sunshine
laws,
the
downtown
blights
and
the
development
at
large
elections,
which
means
that
we
are
all
responsible
for
the
whole
city
rather
than
small
districts
and,
of
course,
last
but
not
least,
a
tumultuous
relationship
with
the
large
stakeholder
which
is
a
church
assigned.
H
These
are
unique
to
us,
and
these
are
challenges
which
already
makes
it
difficult
for
someone
to
want
to
do
this
job,
someone
with
talent
and
passion
that
need
to
have
to
think
twice
because
of
these
challenges
and
that
doesn't
even
come
into
consideration.
The
general
challenges
of
an
elective
official.
H
You
know
China,
effectively
governed
Within
within
20
hours,
the
negative
and
destructive
nature
of
social
media,
the
dissemination
of
false
information,
abusive
Communications,
polarizing,
environment
and
so
I
made.
This
promise
and
I
realized
and
I've
been
told
many
times
that
this
may
be
political
suicide
to
actually
spearhead
this
effort,
but
I'm
willing
to
take
that
risk
if
it
means
that
I'm
going
to
leave
that
door
a
little
bit
open
wider
on
my
way
out.
H
I
know
that
Tampa
just
increased
their
salaries
to
seventy
thousand,
and
that's
not
a
city
manager,
Council
of
form
of
government,
it's
actually
strong
mayor
and
they
have
districts
as
well.
So
again,
I
know
this
is
risky.
I
know
this
is
not
a
popular
topic,
but
I
do
think
that
we
need
to
increase
the
accessibility
of
this
position
to
most
of
its
residents,
so
I'm
thinking
a
livable
wage
should
be
between
60
and
70..
K
Well,
this
is
something
that's
been
talked
about
for
years
and
years
and
years
and
I
think
the
problem
has
been
that
the
charter
review
talks
about
it.
The
same
thing
gets
brought
up,
they
bring
it
to
council
and
Council
doesn't
adopt
it
because
nobody
wants
to
vote
a
bigger
wage
for
themselves.
Although
I
think
what
you're
saying
is
and
I
would
agree
with,
do
it
after
we,
we
leave
office,
do
it
on
the
next
cycle
and
it
does
make
sense.
K
It's
been
discussed,
I
think
every
Charter
review
as
far
back
I'd
like
to
remember,
has
talked
about
it.
You
know
I
I've
seen
both
sides
of
it.
You
know
this
is
something
that
you
really
have
to
have
a
love
for
office,
a
love
for
Clear
Water.
To
do
this
job,
it's
more
coming
from
the
heart
than
anything.
There's
no
Financial
benefit
to
it
at
all.
K
So,
but
what
it
does
it?
You
got
people
who
look
like
me
here.
You
know
retired
old
people
and
not
that
that's
a
bad
thing,
but
it
does
leave
out
a
lot
of
younger
people
that
would
do
fine
in
this
job,
but
I
couldn't
have
done
it
20
30
years
ago,
raising
a
family
and
it
just
it.
It's
not
a
really:
it's
not
a
part-time
job.
K
They
say
it's
a
part-time
job,
but
you
know
once
you
get
on
here
with
the
meetings
we
have
and
the
all
the
other
commitments
and
the
different
boards
we're
on
that.
We
represent
a
full-time
job
and
the
things
we
go
to
at
Night.
The
things
we
go
to
in
the
morning
ribbon
cuttings
all
the
stuff.
It
really
makes
sense
to
do
this
if
we
really
really
thinking
about
it.
We
need
to
be
doing
this
to
include
more
people
that
could
do
this.
K
H
That's
and
that's
it
exactly
I
there's
so
many
people
that
I
encounter
every
day
that
are
passionate
and
talented.
That
would
love
to
be
in
this
position,
but
they're
raising
the
family,
and
they
cannot
raise
that
family
and
live
comfortably
or
actually
effectively
on
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
a
year.
I
mean
we
together
make
what
about
half
of
what
our
city
manager
our
City
attorney
makes,
and
this
is
not
a
religious
vocation.
H
B
B
Flipped
the
routing
error
in
the
overall
scheme
of
our
budget.
H
Politicians
only
want
to
line
their
wallets.
What
else
we
should
be
taking
care
of
the
recycling
before
asking
for
a
salary
that
comments
like
that,
and
you
know
I
have
to
just
Overlook
that
and
just
remain
true
to
what
I
promised
and
what
I
think
is
is
Paramount,
and
that
is
that
this
position
should
be
accessible
to
more
of
its
residents
with
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
a
year.
That
position
is
only
available
to
people
who
are
affluent.
B
L
L
It
isn't
much
budget
wise,
but
I.
You
know
I,
don't
like
the
idea
voting
to
give
myself
a
raise.
D
B
R
Okay,
two
two
things
under
our
city:
Charter
the
council
by
ordinance
set
salaries,
so
it
would
not
go
to
voters
it
is
set
by
ordinance.
However,
our
city
Charter
says
that
any
adjustment
in
salary
could
not
be
effective
at
the
earliest
until
the
commencement
of
the
next
term,
meaning
that
even
if
Council
decided
this
week
to
start
that
process,
it
would
not
go
into
effect
at
the
earliest
until
March
of
2024..
R
D
Well,
I
agree
with
your
comments
about
needing
to
have
more
diversity
on
the
council,
but
I
think
looking
at
salary
alone,
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
things
more
comprehensively
about
whether
we
have
districts
or
not
so
I
think
there
are
other.
You
talked
about
the
cost
of
running
a
campaign
and
so
I
think
it
it's
it's
a
broader
discussion
about
how
best
to
try
to
increase
diversity.
Here
you
know
we
have
the
Kaleidoscope
presentation
about.
D
Well
and-
and
it
can't
be
a
single
income-
maybe
that
at
70
right,
even
even
that
to
have
a
life
I
know:
I
I
had
78
000
a
year
was
what
I
quoted
for
120
Ami
at
the
bluff,
development,
set-aside
and
that's
you
know,
professionals,
and
so
it's
it's
a
challenge.
H
H
Mayor
Hibbert,
not
wanting
to
do
another
another
term
and
Mr
Albritton
have
ending
his
second
and
me
willing
to
take
the
risk
I.
Think
if
it's
going
to
happen,
it's
gonna
happen
now
we're
all
having
this
conversation
for
another
10
years.
B
H
Because
I
was
even
thinking
for
let's
say:
I
had
a
conversation
about
three
weeks
ago
with
someone
that
says
well
what
about?
If
you
know,
I
can
have
another
part-time
job
with
this
part-time
job
and
I'm
like
I,
don't
have
a
part-time
job
you're
going
to
have.
That
gives
you
every
second
Monday
off
every
first
Wednesday
off
every
third
Thursday
off
plus
the
weekends
and
nights
and
every
Thursday
night.
H
It's
it's
very
difficult,
like
you
said,
to
supplement
this
income
with
another
another
job
or
you
know
what
I
mean
because
of
the
flexibility
that
we
need
to
have
this
position.
So
that's
again,
it's
another
restrictive.
We
have
that
not
measure,
but
something
that
restricts
us
from
having
more
people
be
able
to
do
this.
K
Okay,
through
our
Historical
Society,
the
mission
is
to
educate,
collect,
preserve,
exhibit
and
promote
people.
Culture
and
events
in
Clearwater
I've
been
involved
with
the
Historical
Society
in
the
past,
and
I
still
support
it.
Today
we
have
a
we've,
always
had
a
relationship
with
the
city,
but
not
as
strong
as
some
of
the
other
municipalities
around
us.
K
K
I
think
that
you
know
we
have
something
here,
that
is
a
partnership
agreement
and
we
could
I
just
wanted
to
go
over
it.
This
is
a
the
term
of
the
agreement
shall
convince
well,
it's
actually
December
15
2022
through
December
31st
of
2025.,
and
then
it
has.
It
can
be
extended
for
three
more
years
through
December
29th.
K
K
You
know
when
I
was
president
of
the
historic
study
we
operated
out
of
the
plum
house,
which
is
over
on
Martin
Luther
King
Jr
and
we
didn't
have
a
big
budget
and
we
were
always
constantly
fixing
the
railings
that
got
beat
out
by
the
local
kids
in
the
neighborhood.
K
They
have
done,
and
it's
worked
out
very
well.
They
have
we've
done
a
real
nice
job
of
making
the
the
old
building
in
the
front,
the
actual
Museum
and
it
put
a
lot
of
money
and
time
into
it.
Allison
Dolan's
here
she's,
the
president
now
and
I
I
just
wanted
to
bring
this
forward
for
considerations.
Everybody
I
think
that
the
city,
really
it's
a
good
thing
to
support
their
history
and
are
we
we?
We
need
to
vote
on
this
on
Thursday
night
or
what
is
the
procedure
from
here.
W
Just
some
additional
background,
it's
so
the
the
city.
The
city
council
began
to
support
the
the
Historical
Society
in
fiscal
year.
2017.
it's
a
three
year,
twelve
thousand
dollar
a
year,
support
grant
that
was
renewed
fiscal
year
19
and
extended
through
fiscal
year
22..
This
is
there's
a
new
agreement
right.
That's
the
one
that
council
member
Auburn
has
brought
forward
that
increases
that
amount
to
twenty
thousand
in
this
fiscal
year.
Next
fiscal
year
would
be
25,
but
the
third
fiscal
year
would
be
30.
W
30..
There
is
also
an
arpa
grant
that
has
been
submitted.
We
have
not
reviewed
that
Grant,
yet
so
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
some
additional
information
about
that.
D
So
I
love
the
historical
society
and
love
what
they
do.
We
had
the
night
at
the
library
Friday
that
was
a
phenomenal
event
and
Incredibly
well
attended.
So
there
are
just
a
couple
I
one
of
my
first
questions
are.
You
know
I
thought
that
the
historical
society
was
going
to
be
applying
for
our
programs
funds
and
that's
fine,
but
what's
what
I
think
is
most
important
is
for
fairness
for
good
governance
and
transparency.
D
How
we
are
allocating
our
general
funds
needs
to
be
a
collective
holistic
annual
practice
of
good
governance
related
to
the
budget
at
one
meeting,
so
that
we
things
don't
just
kind
of
slide
in
here
and
there,
and
that
we
don't
have
a
a
good
understanding
of
how
much
is
going
out
and
where.
W
P
D
And
then
you
know,
is
the
historical
society
getting
funding
from
the
county
as
well?
Were
there
multiple
funding
sources,
and
you
know
I,
think
I
think
to
look
at
these
organizations
that
will
be
coming
before
us
for
funding
it'd
be
good
to
have
an
understanding
of
where
their
funding
sources
are.
I.
Think
a
financial
accounting
is
good.
Part
of
this
draft
resolution
was,
will
provide
a
financial
and
activity
report
to
the
council
City
annually.
D
You
know
and
I
know,
I'm
sure
Allison
is
not
getting
rich
on
the
salary
with
a
historical
society,
but
no
salary,
okay,
so
those
kinds
of
things
need
to
be
looked
at
when
we
allocate
funding.
You
know
for
these
different
organizations.
H
H
M
This
player-
excuse
me
so,
yes,
we
do
know
that
that,
as
a
result
of
their
big
staff
rooms
that
some
of
these
things
go
through
the
cracks.
This
is
one
of
those
Mr.
Hubba
does
not
have
the
authority
to
enter
into
an
agreement,
though
so
you
know,
I
think
what
the
agreement
was
was
that
it
would
be
brought
forward
not
that
key
committed
the
city
to
the
contract
at
all.
But
there
were
absolutely
more
conversations
and
this
was
supposed
to
come
forward
and
it
did
not
as
a
result.
D
K
All
right,
I've
always
been
very
surprised
that
the
city
didn't
have
more
of
an
active
role
in
supporting
our
history.
This
is
our
history
of
the
city
and
if
nobody,
if
the
city
doesn't
really
care
about
that,
we're
not
going
to
have
a
history,
we
have
a
group
of
people
that
that
I
work
with
for
years
that
tried
to
build
this
up
and
and
keep
that
history.
K
D
I
would
agree
with
that
and
I
would
you
know
I
would
anticipate
I
would
vote
for
allocation
of
funding
for
the
Historical
Society
I
just
think
it
needs
to
be
done
in
a
transparent,
equal
footing
way
with
others
granted.
You
know
we
can
move
them
up
and
I
I
think
they
do
play
a
special
role,
but
I
think
as
far
as
being
transparent
and
fair
doing
it
all
at
one
time
is,
is
the
best
way
for
governance.
H
H
I
find
that
inspirational
and
I
think
it's
part
of
our
identity
and
as
a
city,
we
need
to
support
our
history
because
it's
part
of
our
identity
and
our
pride
so
I
think
this
is
pretty
transparent.
I
mean
the.
If
anybody
can
look
at
the
agreement.
This
is
a
discussion
that
this
entity
has
been
having
for
over
a
year
and
a
half,
so
the
due
process
has
has
occurred,
so
I
feel
very
comfortable
with
honoring.
This.
E
So
I'm
going
to
defer
to
the
attorney,
but
based
on
Council
rules,
the
appropriate
action
would
be
to
direct
staff
to
place
it
on
the
next
agenda.
The
agenda,
as
written
just
says,
Clearwater
Historical,
Society
agreement.
There
was
really
nothing
there
explaining
to
the
public
or
to
council
exactly
what
the
ask
is
so
I
think
that
would
be
the
most
appropriate
in
that
way.
Staff
can
ensure
that
any
of
the
budget
information
is
included
with
the
next
agenda
for
the
next.
R
Actually,
okay,
with
with
Council
potentially
voting
on
this
on
Thursday,
but
just
a
couple
things
to
point
out
that
are
relatively
minor
in
nature
number
one
is
from
a
budget
perspective.
It
will
have
to
be
identified
what
the
funding
source
is
for
this
and
then
number
two,
because
Mr
Hubbard
had
worked
on
this
agreement
because
it
is
just
a
draft.
My
understanding
from
my
my
attorneys
is
that
there
is
an
updated
draft
of
this
agreement
and
we
would
want
to
present
that
updated
draft
prior
to
Thursday.
R
So
from
a
procedural
standpoint,
I
would
be
okay
with
the
fact
this
has
been
discussed
in
a
work
session.
I
do
agree
with
council
member
to
Shada
that
there
is
enough
information
there
to
there
to
apprise
the
public
as
to
what
the
item
is
now
as
to
the
vice
mayor's
point
about
whether
Council
actually
wants
to
treat
the
Historical
Society
differently
than
we
treat
other
non-profits.
That's
a
decision
for
a
council.
R
So
if
Council
would
like
to
have
a
vote
on
this
on,
Thursday
I
would
do
two
things
number
one
to
work
with
Finance
to
make
sure
we
have
the
appropriate
budget
code
for
it
and
number
two
to
work
with
my
lawyers
to
make
sure
we
have
the
most
recent
draft
of
the
agreement,
because
I
believe,
as
I
said,
this
draft
is
a
little
bit
out
of
date.
So.
B
D
I
I
continue
to
struggle
with
the
idea
that
we
have
discussion
items
that
are
listed
on
our
agenda
for
discussion
and
then
we
vote
on
them
and
it's
financially.
You
know
it's
a
financial
commitment
that
we
vote
on
on
Thursday
I,
don't
think
that's
fair
to
our
voters
to
have
something
on
an
agenda.
That's
just
listed
as
discussion
and
then
when
from
a
work
session
on
a
Monday,
and
then
you
know,
whenever
our
Council
agenda
item
is
published
for
Thursday
night,
who
knows
when
then
they
have?
D
You
know
a
flag
or
or
information
that
wow
they're
going
to
be
voting
on
a
financial
allocation
and
I,
just
I,
don't
think
that's
I,
don't
think
that's
fair
to
voters
to
give
them
a
heads
up
about
where's
the
money
going
and
for
what
reason
until
the
last
minute,
I
just
procedurally
that
just
doesn't
seem
right
if
we're
going
to
be.
If
the
proposal
is
to
allocate
some
money,
I
think
it
should
be
indicated
on
a
work
session
agenda
item
and
not
not
on
a
discussion.
H
D
I
think
I
think
it's
just
more
transparent
to
the
public
that
wow
there.
This
is
a
budgetary
item
that
there's
a
potential
to
allocate
funds
and
vote
on
a
Thursday,
rather
than
just
a
collective
philosophical
discussion
about
direction
or
new
ideas
or
updates,
or
things
like
that.
To
me,
a
discussion
heading
is
more
discussion,
not
voting.
B
D
K
We
we
were
discussing
discussing
the
pointing
the
interim
city
manager
to
manager
and
we
will
be
voting
on
that
Thursday
night.
B
P
B
Or
opposed
okay,
yeah
all
right
anything
else.
Mr
Margolis
I
already
asked
you.
R
R
This
was
particularly
a
feature
under
our
prior
city
manager,
where
we
had
items
that
would
come
forward
as
city
manager
reports,
and
yet
they
are
items
that
were
phrased
in
a
vague
manner
or
were
not
very
transparent
as
to
what
the
council
was
actually
going
to
be
discussing,
or
even
in
some
cases
being
asked
what
to
do.
But
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm,
okay
with
this
item
but
I,
understand
the
vice
mayors
point
that,
depending
on
how
these
items
are
phrased,
there
can
be
I
think
a
very
serious
concern
about
public
transparency.
R
B
D
I'd
like
to
give
an
update
on
the
Tampa
Bay
Estuary
program
policy
board
meeting
that
I
went
to
last
Friday
and
also
I'd
like
to
have
a
discussion
on
Drew
Street
information.
So
apparently
there's
a
call
for
letters
from
Brian
Shroyer
by
March
second
of
this
year
and
so
I
think
we
need.
You
know
we
need
to
have
a
discussion
about
that
and
what's
going
on
with
Drew
Street,
that's
done
other
items.
B
I've
got
a
question
for
you:
councilman
I,
don't
understand
why
PSTA
decided
to
make
the
Sun
Runner
free
for
another
six
months.
B
K
Well,
I
would
defer
you
to
the.
If
you
have
a
chance
to
look
at
the
meeting,
we
had
a
lively
discussion
on
that.
The
two
sides
to
it
and
a
lot
had
to
do
with
the
data
collection.
They
thought
it
was
valuable.
It
was
brought
up
that
perhaps
we'd
not
do
it
six
months.
We'd
do
it.
You
know
until
not
till
December,
but
do
it
at
a
90-day
thing.
They
thought
that,
with
the
new
input
of
the
touchless
pay
and
some
other
reasons
that
kind
of
prevail.
K
Because
we,
we
are
paying
a
company
to
put
people
on
the
buses
to
collect
data
that
can
be
useful
later
on
who's.
Writing,
where
they're
going
and
a
lot
about
the
wraps
I
had
a
concern
on
that,
because
I
go
have
I
mean
if
you
give
somebody
a
car
they're
not
going
to
fill
it
out,
they
go
no
there's
going
to
be
some
money
on
the
bus.
Taking
these
with
a
iPad,
you
know
and
putting
them
down
so
I.
K
Guess
it's
very
important
to
have
data
in
a
public
transit
situation
where
you
can
say
we
have
X
amount
of
writers
and
it
gives
us
more
time.
I
think
the
general
consensus
was.
It
gives
us
more
time
to
really
see
who's.
Writing
it
through
the
season
and
if
it's
more,
if
it's
more
seasonal,
with
tourists
or
people
coming
from
downtown
to
the
beach
their
business
and
how
the
businesses
are
responding
to
it.
We
had
a
pretty
likely
debate
on
it.
B
There
are
two
things
I'd
like
to
like
that.
First
of
all,
and.
B
B
D
D
The
prior
meeting
there
were
like
almost
300
pages
of
attached
documents
that
came
out
on
a
Thursday
I
think,
and
it's
just
not
it's
it's
too
much
it's
too
much
and
we
need
to
do
a
good
job.
D
E
Mayor
and
Council
I
can
Implement
a
change
so
that
it
is
published
the
Monday
prior,
but
I
will
not
be
able
to
implement
it
until
after
April
4th.
So
as
we
speak
right
now,
today,
I'm
already
working
deadlines
already
starting
for
the
April
I'm
advertising
for
April
meetings.
So
if
they're,
if
I,
can
ask
for
that,
okay,
that's
fine.
E
Me
I
thought
of
some
I
I
spoke
with
Jennifer,
Friday
and
so
I
have
a
plan.
It's
going
to
be
different
or
staff,
but
I
can
make
it
then.
