A
A
Here
before
we
begin
with
our
meeting
agenda,
I'd
like
to
take
a
few
moments
to
read
a
statement
that
I've
prepared.
C
A
The
core
values
of
the
organization
were
never
far
from
the
service
from
the
surface,
in
particular,
the
commitment
to
communication,
the
sea
and
epic
team
guided
the
city's
statement
being
sent
to
all
staff
council
media
and
posted
through
our
social
media
channels,
at
the
same
time
ensuring
a
proactive
and
consistent
message
to
all.
I'm
confident
our
staff
will
continue
to
be
guided
by
those
values
as
we
move
forward
as
a
city.
On
a
personal
note,
I
want
to
say
that
I'm
shocked,
stunned
and
disgusted
by
the
allegations
that
are
facing
mr
mercier.
It.
A
Services
and
as
we
continue
our
ambitious
program
report
in
service
to
our
city
and
our
citizens,
I
thank
you
all
for
your
participation
in
this
difficult
conversation
and
for
your
service
to
the
city
of
jacksonville
beach.
So,
as
we
begin
to
move
through
the
agenda,
I
feel
we
probably
have
many
people
watching
via
our.
B
A
Channel
so
I'd
like
to
read
the
background
paragraph
from
our
agenda
memo
background.
The
city
attorney
is
one
of
two:
contractually
appointed
physicians
reporting
directly
to
the
city
council,
the
city
of
jacksonville
beach
became
aware
of
the
arrest
of
the
city
attorney
on
march
24
2021..
The
arrest
docket
refers
to
one
felony
charge
and
one
misdemeanor
charge.
It
is.
D
E
A
These
charges
may
preclude
the
city
attorney
from
providing
contractual
legal
services
to
the
city
or
whether
ensuing
legal
proceedings
will
cloud
his
ability
to
perform.
The
arrest
of
the
city
attorney
has
several
significant
considerations
and
impacts.
Most
notably
formal
actions
will
need
to
be
taken
by
the
council
on
impact
to
the
city.
Attorney's.
Existing
employment
agreement
need
for
special
legal
counsel
to
provide
guidance
on
this
issue
and
continuity
of
legal
services
for
the
organization.
E
Thank
you
mayor.
First,
I'd
like
to
point
out
that
we
do
have
a
guest
with
us
tonight,
eric
holzhauser,
who
is
one
of
our
labor
attorneys
that
assists
us
here
at
the
city
of
jacksonville
beach.
He
is
here
specifically
to
provide
some
guidance
on
action.
Item
number
one
action
item
number
one
is
with
regard
to
impact
of
the
employment
agreement.
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
walk
through
what
the
action
items
are
first
and
then
circle
back
to
action.
E
One
so
actually
item
number
one
is
with
regards
to
the
employment
agreement
for
the
city
attorney,
there's,
obviously
a
school
of
options
that
are
available
to
the
city
council
as
we
move
forward,
and
we've
tried
to
outline
some
of
those
for
you
here
today
in
the
agenda
memo,
I
would
note
that
there
are
some
additional
pieces
of
information
that
we
changed.
The
memo
I
think
a
few
times
internally
today
and
with
the
council.
E
One
of
the
things
that
we
would
like
to
point
out
is
that,
with
regards
to
our
charter
language,
there
is
a
requirement
for
a
30-day
notice
period
to
be
held
with
regards
to
change
in
employment
status.
With
that
particular
position
and
we'll
circle
back
around
that
the
second
action
is
with
regards
to
the
need
to
restrict
the
city
attorney's
access
as
we
go
through
this
process.
One
of
the
things
that
we've
discussed
internally
is
what
the
destruction
would
be
to
have
them
back
in
the
workplace
at
this
point
in
time.
E
So
we
are
looking
for
action
from
the
council
in
order
to
treat
the
individual
like.
We
would
other
individuals
when
there's
an
investigation
or
some
other
issue-
that's
come
along
where
there
are
not
allowed
on
city
property
or
the
facilities
or
have
contact
with
the
employees
until
they
are
noticed
by
their
supervisor
to
return
to
work
or
some
other
disposition.
That
goes
action.
Three
is
with
regards
to
need
for
special
legal
counsel.
E
This
is
not
a
typical
situation
that
an
organization
finds
itself
in
where
we
are
dealing
with
this
type
of
an
issue.
So
we
are
looking
for
the
city
council
to
authorize
us
to
enter
into
an
additional
legal
agreement
so
that
we
can
make
sure
we
have
the
right
legal
representation
to
assist
the
city
through
this
process,
which
will
likely
go
on
for
a
little
bit
of
time,
and
the
fourth
is
continuity
of
legal
services.
E
While
we
do
have
existing
legal
agreements
with
different
firms
from
around
the
area
and
across
the
state,
most
of
them
in
some
way
shape
or
form
can
provide
us
with
the
appropriate
municipal
legal
services
to
keep
the
wheels
of
our
organization
moving.
But
there
may
be
one
or
more
additional
agreements
that
we
need
in
order
to
fill
the
gaps
that
we
may
have
with
not
having
a
full
full-time
city
attorney
on
site.
So
we
are
looking
for
authorization
to
procure
some
additional
legal
services
as
well.
E
E
There's
been
one
amendment
to
that
agreement
on
his
annual
anniversary,
which
didn't
materially
change
the
terms
and
conditions
of
his
employment
or
section
5
of
his
agreement
with
that
being
said,
I
will
turn
it
over
to
mr
hull
tower,
mr
holzhauser.
F
A
F
F
According
to
his
employment
agreement,
he's
employed
at
will
and
that
provision
can
be
triggered
as
long
as
it's
consistent
with
the
charter
in
terms
of
the
process
within
you
know
at
will
to
terminate
employment.
If
that's
the
direction,
the
council
wants
to
go,
there's
also
a
termination
of
employment
with
cause
and
there's
an
extensive
list
of
what
constitutes
cause
under
that,
and
that's
something
that
involves
proof
of
cause
right
now.
F
We
have
allegations,
but
allegations
don't
necessarily
indicate
proof
and
for
some
of
this
to
occur,
you
know
we
have
to
see
what
happens
in
terms
of
the
progress
of
the
criminal
case
and
any
other
additional
facts
that
we
may
learn.
You
know
throughout
this
investigation
that
does
not
require
paying
20
weeks
total
compensation
for
termination.
It
calls
for
end
of
compensation
as
soon
as
determination
is
effective.
F
However,
you
know
there
are
issues
concerning
a
trying
to
prove
cause
could
be
litigated.
There's
obviously,
issues
that
can
arise
out
of
litigation
across
the
back.
F
You
may
all
have
read
about
aaron
john
challenging
his
terms
for
cause
from
the
jda
and
that's
the
involvement
of
type
of
contested
litigation
right
now.
Currently,
the
city
attorney
is
just
on
leave.
He
is
out
just
like
anybody
would
be
they're
out
on
vacation
for
other
personal
reasons,
and
he
has
a
bank
vacation
and
personally
to
use
that
he
doesn't
lose
no
matter.
What
and
that's
right
now
the
situation
we're
in
he's
down
work.
F
He
hasn't
reported
to
work
and
he's
getting
leave
and
then
there's
some
additional
sick
leads
that
he
has.
They
could
carry
him
through
employment
of
through
april
14th,
and
that
is
something
that
is
an
option
that
is
set
forth
on
your
agenda
to
see
whether
we
want
to
just
keep
him
on
these
stats
using
his
own
pay
for
these
banks.
C
F
See
what
happens
in
terms
of
the
development
of
facts
right
now
again
we
have
allegations,
but
we
don't
have
any
resolution
on
exactly
what
those
if
the
allegations
are
true.
I
think
that
my
opinion
is
we
kind
of
pause
for
termination
under
the
component,
so
but
right
now
we're
not
there.
G
In
in
the
beginning,
it
says
that
he
had
171
hours,
and
that
would
seem
to
me
that
it's
four
weeks
plus
11
hours
and
it
seems
like
that-
would
be
a
pass
april.
14Th
to
me.
F
D
D
There
is
actually
enough
sick
leave
that
if
we
kept
him
on,
the
payroll
would
go
through
4
21
through
april
21.
However,
sickly
did
not
normally
pay
out
for
any
reason
other
than
retirement.
So
if
you
all
wish
to
extend
and
the
opportunity
to
take
sickly,
we
would
we
are
asking
for
council
authorization.
B
Section
5b:
can
you
just
go
over
a
termination
of
a
possible
termination
with
cause
based
on.
B
F
That
has
to
be
the
cause
of
the
agreement
yet
and
then
there's
some
other
provisions
that
talk
about
grossness,
stevens
or
malfeasance,
deliberate
violation
or
disregard
of
the
standards
of
behavior.
There's
a
number
of
things
there
that
I
think
that
potentially
could
be
grounds
for
determination
that
they
have
to
be
proved
as
well
and,
of
course,
there's
an
argument
with
respect
to
a
lot
of
behavior
issues
and
if
they're
not
work
related
they're,
not
relevant.
So
you
know
you've
got
that
issue
to
pop
up.
F
If
you
know
go
forward
with
this
and
you
know
anything
could
come
up.
The
gross
insubordination
or
misconduct
can
be
ground
for
termination
too.
That
hasn't
happened
yet
either.
So
we
don't
have
enough
past
proof,
right
now
to
say
there's
ground
determination
right
now
now
the
council
could
decide
to
do
that
and
hope
that
that
proof
comes
in,
but
you
just
never
know.
F
Cause
well
yeah.
I
just
saw
that
too
it
doesn't.
I
don't
think
it
is
just
for
termination
for
cause.
It
just
reflects
terminate.
First
of
all,
it
takes
a
super
majority
of
other
five
council
members
to
remove
the
city
attorney
from
office,
but
before
that
happened,
the
city
attorney
would
need
a
resolution
passed
by
a
majority
before
the
council.
F
F
F
F
Well,
if
he
was
the
case
with
dropped,
there
are
other
grounds
in
here
that
could
apply
if
we
had
proof
and
and
but
we
don't
have
the
proof
right
now,
but
that's
one
of
the
risks
of
before
relying
on
thinking
that
he's
going
to
be
convicted
or
believe
no
or
something
like
that.
If
that
doesn't
happen,
then
we
don't
have
that
at
the
grounds
for
for
cross
termination.
F
That's
awful
and
one
other
thing
if,
for
some
reason,
the
flora
bar
gets
involved
and
things
need
to
be
discard
based
on
what's
happened,
his
loss
of
a
license
is
another
grounds
for
termination,
but
that
can
hang
months
and
months,
and
you
know
we
just
can't
predict
that's
going
to
be
the
case
at
this
point.
In.
C
Time,
thank
you.
I
don't
have
a
question.
I'd
just
like
to
get
going
on
the
discussion.
I
don't
think
we
have.
I
think
we
put
the
city
at
risk
for
termination
at
this
phase.
It's
been
three
days
two
days.
C
And
thank
you
for
mentioning
the
aaron's
on
case.
That
is
something
that
we
don't
want
to
have
to
deal
with.
I
think
we
are
in
a
better
situation
by
putting
mr
letting
facts
be
gathered,
be
it
by
us
and
most
likely
through
the
court
system
and
then
revisit
this
after
his
first
court
date
on
the
april
14th
so
on
the
15th
or
sometimes
shortly
thereafter,
but
before
the
21st
before
his
bto
runs
out.
C
So
I
would
put
forth
that
that
would,
I
think,
be
the
best
option
for
the
city
and
its
citizens
financially,
because
he
would
be
facing
a
lawsuit
and
we
don't
have
the
facts
that
are
needed
to
be
able
to
justify
clause
at
this
moment
in
time.
H
Yeah,
I
know
you
mentioned
that
there
is
allegations,
but
I
feel
that
we've
gone
a
little
bit
further
than
allegations
when
there's
arrest
based
on
probable
cause,
that's
going
to
be
supported
by
evidence.
I
don't
think
that
it
stands
on
mere
allegation
and
we
may
not
know
the
totality
of
the
circumstances,
but
we
know
there
was
arrested
and
that's
w
based
on
the
probable
cause
and
has
held
up
our
first
appearance.
H
G
Nichols
from
a
from
a
legal
perspective,
do
you
have
a
recommendation
that
you
could
give
the
council
and
then
just
one
one
comment:
councilwoman
you
want
his.
I
believe
his
pto
is
he's
got
60
hours,
so
I
think
that
takes
them
through
the
end
of
the
next
week,
which
goes
over
the
time
we
have
to
make
a
decision
about
allowing
him
to
use
sickly
in
order
to
get
past
that
time.
F
F
F
F
I
have
read
the
arrest
report
that
the
redacted
version
of
it
right
and
what's
in
there
is
true,
there's
cause
for
termination.
B
Miss
goldie
I
just
want
to
bring
up.
Excuse
me,
bring
up
some
information,
some
of
us
who
are
on
the
council
over
the
last
couple
years.
We
approved
a
code
of
ethics
and
that
code
of
ethics
is
for
all
public
officials,
which
includes
us,
as
well
as
the
appointed
public
officials
and
section
c
of
that
code
of
ethics
states.
The
professional
and
personal
conduct
of
public
officials
shall
be
above
reproach
and
avoid
even
the
appearance
of
impropriety.
B
I
just
want
to
bring
that
up,
because
that
is
you
know.
The
code
of
ethics
was
something
that
we
passed,
because
we
feel
that
the
public
trust
is
really
important.
We
need
the
public
to
have
trust
in
our
government,
and
so
I
just
want
us
to
keep
this
in
mind,
because.
B
A
A
I
think
the
now
is
what's
the
right
path
forward
for
the
best
for
our
city
and
for
our
citizens,
so
I
tend
to
agree
with
miss
dumont
that
we
recognize
that
this
is
hot
off
the
presses,
as
you
will
and
that
that
buys
us
a
little
time
for
a
little
more
information
to
develop
for
us
to
get
organized
for
us
to
to
formally
engage
counsel
to
advise
us
through
this
process,
and
the
pto
is
something
he's
that
we
would
pay
anyway.
A
So
I
think
that
that's
that's
where
I'm
leaning
at
this
point,
but
it
doesn't,
I
don't
feel
a
strong
push
one
way
or
the
other
to
any.
Is
there
any
consensus
on
how
we
want
to
proceed
at
this
point,
so
we
can
get
a
motion
in
a
vote.
Mr
nichols.
G
I
would
agree,
I
guess
the
the
motion
that
we
need
to
refer
to
administrative
leave
as
well
within
the
motion
that
we're
looking
at
I
mean
I
agree
that
determination,
potential
determination
should
be
delayed
at
this
time.
We
just
want
to
make
sure
that
he
is
on
administrative
leave
and
that
he's
not
coming
into
coming
here
and.
D
Right,
I
I
think
it
should
be
clear.
It
would
be
helpful
to
refer
to
administrative
leave
and
the
fact
that
we
are
authorizing.
You
know
use
of
approved
leave,
including
signal
equality.
Those
are
two
reported
components
and,
like
you
said,
if
he's
on
administrative
leave,
that
gives
us
a
little
bit
more
of
the
opportunity
to
restrict
his
activity
when
it
comes
to
city
facilities
in
the
city.
D
D
A
H
I
walked
in
here
feeling
that
with
you
determining
employment
with
cause,
I
understand
the
position
that
you
have.
I
would
feel
that
meeting
in
the
middle
would
be
terminating
plumbing
agreement
without
cause,
and
you
know
taking
that
20
weeks
in
consideration.
A
B
B
It
is
in
my
opinion
that
this
has
been
a
violation
of
the
standards
of
the
behavior
in
which
the
city
has
the
right
to
expect
of
a
city
attorney
and
just
based
on
the
arrest
in
itself
that
we
should
expect
higher
out
of
our
city.
It's
going
to
be
for
to
put
himself
in
any
situation
that
could
involve
legal
action,
and
that
goes
for
a
lot
of
city
employees
and
all
of
all
of
us
as
well.
That's
our
code
of
ethics.
G
Well,
I
I
was
very
shocked
and
very
disappointed
with
with
this
whole
situation,
but
my
concern
with
termination
is
the
exposure
of
20
weeks
of
pay,
which,
in
my
estimates,
is
probably
about
160
170
000.
G
89
89
000
that
we
would
have
to
pay
for
the
contract
if
we
allow
the
administrative.
G
And
we
understand
that
that,
unless
something
drastic
changes
and
the
whole
story
is
incorrect,
that
determination
is
pending.
I
believe
that
the
exposure
to
the
city
financially
is
something
that
we
should
that
we
should
consider
so
in
addition
to
the
89
000
determination,
without
calling
we
stopped
to
pay
them
the
the
171
hour.
Probably,
that
was
just
probably.
G
But
I'll
continue,
but
from
a
financial
disclosure
position
of
the
city
and
the
fact
that
he
will
not
be
if
you
don't
administratively
will
be
recruited
from
being
involved,
and
I
believe
the
city
has
taken
any
keys,
his
cell
phone
anything
else
that
would
allow
even
access
to
his
email
to
the
server.
I
believe
everything
has
been
removed
so.
G
Action
appears
to
me
that
the
city
has
shown
significant
action
in
the
course
that
we're
taking
and
that
the
that
the
taxpayers
of
jacksonville
beach
would
agree
that
the
exposure
of
the
expenditure
of
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
waiting
a
week
or
two
on
additional
information
is
would
be,
would
make
sense
to
them
and
that
if
we
terminate-
and
this
does
turn
out
to
be
something
happens
and
the
case
gets
dropped,
then
we
are
really
a
we're
very
open
to
litigation.
C
Thank
you.
I
am
an
agreement
with
mr
nichols.
The
difference
is
68
111
and
I
would
like
to
see
that
money
utilized
in
a
way
that
would
benefit
the
citizens,
not
that
dealing
with
what
it
doesn't
benefit.
The
citizens
we
need
to
labor
law
is
one
of
those.
C
I
don't
disagree
with
what
everybody
has
said
here,
but
I'm
looking
at
risk
exposure
for
the
citizens
and
the
tax
dollars
on
how
to
move
forward
in
the
most
expeditious
way
possible,
and
I
see
that
in
waiting
until
after
that,
his
first
court
date
regrouping
into
on
the
15th
of
the
16th
or
thursday
or
the
friday
figuring
out.
What
now
that
we
have
more
information?
What?
Where
do
we
want
to
go?
Should
we
go
with
termination
of
cause
termination
without
pause
or
continue
on
his
administrative
leave.
A
H
Jenna,
I
understand
that
two
week
time
frame.
However,
I
don't
know
that
there's
a
whole
lot
of
facts
that
will
be
presented
to
us,
based
on
my
experience
in
a
two
week
time
time
frame
as
far
as
where
his
direction
in
this
case
is
going
to
go.
In
fact
that
I
would
submit
to
you
it's
probably
going
to
be
years
or,
if
not,
you
know
significant
amount
of
months,
and
I
don't
want
to
put
a
price
tag
on
moving
forward
with
determination,
though
it
seems
to
be
that
the
dollars
is
a
concern.
G
G
F
You
know
it
gives
rise
to
the
potential
that
we
would
have
to
prove
cause
for
termination
under
the
employment
agreement,
and
that
is
going
to
require
us
to
develop
evidence
to
present
to
a
fact-finder
that
he
did
what
he's
alleged
to
have
done,
or
at
least
part
of
what
he's
alleged
to
have
done
and
again
that
becomes
problematic.
When
you
talk
about
third-party
witnesses,
you
have
to
rely
on
to
present
your
case
where,
in
this
case,
the
only
first-hand
witness
other
than
the
city
attorney
is
a
underage
student
person.
F
And
you
know,
and
but
these
things
go
different
directions.
I
I
talked
to
one
of
my
partners
who
was
a
prosecutor
in
jacksonville,
and
he
said
that
you
know
he's
seen
these
cases
where
I
just
do
the
person's
guilty
and
they're
convicted
and
he's
also
seen
it
where
the
accuser
is
just
said
if
they
made
it
up
because
they
were
mad
at
somebody,
and
you
know,
we
don't
know
how
it's
going
to
come
out.
F
I
don't
think
we're
legally
exposed
if
we
go
through
the
charter
process
of
affecting
the
termination
and
pay
out
the
89
000
in
you
know,
severance
pays
under
the
contract.
E
E
We
would
stop
the
process
of
following
what's
defined
in
the
charter
of
the
30-day
notice,
which
would
still
take
us
beyond
the
april
14th
arraignment
date
for
the
city
attorney
so,
and
that
was
one
of
the
things
we
wanted
to
clarify
with
regards
to
the
memo
and
if
I'm
wrong,
mr
bowser,
but
if,
if
direction
was
given,
they
wanted
to
terminate
the
agreement
tonight,
whether
it's
with
cause
or
without
cause.
E
So,
even
if
we
started
that
process,
if
that
was
your
decision
tonight,
it
would
likely
not
be
until
next
week
that
the
special
meeting
would
occur
and
then,
at
that
point
you're
looking
somewhere
around
april
30th
that
you
would
actually
have
the
ability
to
move
forward
with
the
termination
of
the
agreement
just
wanted
to
make
sure
we're
on
the
same
page
to
schedule
them
and
why
one
of
our
recommendations
is
to
consider
waiting
until
the
14th.
Until
after
that.
B
A
F
E
If,
if
you
move
forward
with
with
the
direction
of
staff
to
create
a
resolution
and
bring
it
back,
we
would
need
to
know
whether
it
is
for
cause
or
without
cause,
because
the
reasons
for
termination
need
to
be
stated
in
the
resolution
right.
I
would
also
specify
that
one
of
the
things
that
mr
holzhauser
has
not
had
the
privilege
of
seeing
is
the
code
of
ethics
that
was
established
by
council
when
adopted.
E
F
Yeah,
although
that
would
have
to
also
then
be
under
the
contract,
it
would
have
to
be
you
know,
of
conduct
or
ethics
is
not
incorporated
by
reference
into
the
forecast
revision.
Now
there
may
be
some
language
in
the
forecast
provision.
We
can
say
really
tells
us
that
the
code
of
context
doesn't
behind
it,
because
I
think
there
is
some
language
about
proper
behavior
of
a
city
attorney.
B
Questions
about
was
obviously
assuming
he
bonded
out,
and
I
know
he
played
not
guilty.
Have
you
guys
had
a
chance
to
talk
to
him
to
see
get
his
perspective.
H
E
B
F
G
So
if
we
decided
determination
for
cause,
can
we
make
a
list
at
this
time
and
that's
the
list
that
is
defined
in
this
termination?
G
If,
if
he
is
a
filing,
a
lawsuit
against
us
are
those
the
issues
that
only
the
issues
that
we
can
use,
because
those
are
the
ones
we
did
or
if
additional
information
arises.
Let's
say
you
please
guilty
at
a
later
time
is
found
guilty.
Can
we
use
it
at?
Can
we
use
those
at
that
time
or
only
the
list
that
we
develop?
F
Question
I
I
think
that
what
you
do,
if
you
develop
a
list,
would
say
commission
of
a
felony
and
then,
if
he's
convicted,
you
would
have
the
proof
that
that
occurred.
So
you
wouldn't
have
to
I
don't
think
separately,
say
a
conviction
of
a
felony,
because
that
would
be
what
you
put
in
your
list.
I
mean
the
way
you
do.
Is
you
incorporate
as
much
as
you
could
in
your
list,
but
what
either
is
alleged
to
have
happened
or
what
you
think
will
happen.
C
F
A
Ultimately,
if
we
do,
if
we
chose
tonight
to
terminate
with
or
without
pause,
it
would
trigger
the
charter
process
at
the
resolution,
which
at
that
point
would
need
a
super
majority.
Am
I
correct?
You
would
need
a
simple
address.
E
E
G
So
we're
going
on
this
process
of
termination,
beginning
now
and
either
the
resolution
does
not
pass
at
the
super
majority
that
would
fall
back
to
being
being
between
now
and
the
time
that
the
vote
is
taken
for
termination.
The
second
one
is
on
administrative
leave.
From
now
on,.
D
There
is
a
stipulation
that
the
council
may
suspend
the
city
attorney
from
duty
after
passage
of
the
resolution,
but
must
continue
to
pay
the
city
attorney
until
the
termination
becomes
effective,
and
so
that
would
be
30
days.
Okay,
so.
B
D
Four
thirty
days
and-
and
I
believe
the
mayor
pointed
out
that
those
two
options
were
presented
as
if
they're
mutually
exclusive
they're
going
online,
we
were
working
off
of
the
contract
language
and
not
taking
into
account
the
30-day
wait
period
that
the
charter
amendment
required.
G
Mr
nichols,
oh
sure,
the
the
point
you
brought
up
about
suspension,
so
we
would
need
to
include
that
in
any
language,
if
we
were
going
to
go
the
termination
route
at
this
time,
if
you're
in
the
termination
route
you
need
to
be
or
is
that
automatically
in
this
contract
that
it's
automatically
get
suspended.
D
I
believe
the
motion
would
be
to
direct
staff
to
come
back
with
a
resolution
on
a
set
date,
and
then
we
would
follow
the
procedures
that
are
defined
in
the
charter
or
termination
which
those
procedures
include
suspension.
The
fact
that
we
have
to
have
a
paid
extension.
C
The
two
lines
together
to
stop
the
process
for
termination
with
cause
is
what
we're
talking
about
here
and
the
charges
get
dropped
is
the
is
the
vote
tonight
to
move
forward
with
the
resolution
binding
our
hands
in
any
way,
while
waiting
to
pass
the
at
least
the
initial
majority
vote
before
the
super
majority
vote?
In
other
words,
are
we
exposing
the
city
to
any
risk
if
the
charges
were
dropped
and.
F
I
suppose
what
you
could
do
if
you're
worried
about
proof
of
cost
is
just
smoke
down
the
resolution.
At
that
point
to
go
a
different
route,
I
mean
you
know.
The
other
thing
is
that
you
could
decide.
We
can
gather
enough
evidence
independently
of
the
charges
that
we
can
perceive
as
cause
on
that,
for
instance,
there
may
be
something
he
admits
to
doing:
that's
not
a
felony
but
falls
within
one
of
the
other
categories
of
the
cause
that
we
can
rely
on
to
move
forward.
Even
though
the
charges
are
correct.
F
C
All
right,
then,
I
would
like
to
move
them.
G
G
Back
to
my
that
point,
if
my
understanding
that
he
has
maybe
not
in
court
but
has
admitted
to
supplying
alcohol
to
a
minor
does,
that
is,
is
that
the
case
at
this
point
in
time?
Does
anybody
know.
F
A
C
C
E
C
But
at
that
point
with
the
situation
changing
broke,
that
down
and
you'd
be
able
to
make
another
motion
to
terminate
with
without
cause
and
even
another
30-day
process,
during
which
time
he
would
be
getting
paid,
not
getting
paid.
F
F
In
other
words,
maybe
there's
a
way-
and
I
haven't
really
studied
this.
This
is
the
first
time
today
that
I've
seen
this
charter
amendment,
but
it
may
be
the
way
you
could
do
both
in
one
document
get
that
30-day
paid
30
days
rolling
and
then
have
the
vote.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
with
a
super
majority
determine
which
route
you're
going
to
have.
C
Does
the
employee
then
need
an
additional
30
days
to
try
and
address
that,
although,
since
it's
without
cause,
I
wouldn't
see
that
there
would
be
anything
to
address.
F
Yeah,
it
seems
to
me
that
you
know
if
you
vote
it
down
it.
Would
you
know
I
don't
know
that
you'd
have
to
start
all
over
again
for
without
cause
determination,
if
you
keep
that
option
alive
during
that
first
process,
okay,
but
this
is
all
you
know
potentially
livable
stuff,
but
I
would
think
that
you
know
it:
it's
not
that
much
more
money
30
days
a
day
off
for
a
top
of
20
weeks.
F
B
G
Nichols
so
we're
going
to
need
to
be
advantageous
to
move
our
second,
if
we
are
going
to
vote
for
termination
this
time
with
or
without
pause,
that
we
would
move
that
second
meeting
to
as
close
as
to
30
days
as
we
could
to
get
be
able
to
get
as
much
information
between
now
and
then,
and
so
we
wrote
it
on
the
29th
day,
I
mean
we
had
to
pay
the
third.
We
got
to
pay
for
30
days
anyway.
C
A
E
Maybe
you
could
say
and
and
direct
the
city
vanity
to
prepare
a
resolution
and
schedule
a
special
meeting
accordingly.
C
And
direct
the
city
manager
to
grant
resolution
and
schedule
the
meetings
accordingly
process.
What.
A
H
C
Take
a
pre-strike
to
finish
the
process
to
to
the
to
amending
it
to
after
the
setting
the
meetings
and
to
follow
the
the
process
in
the
charter.
A
G
B
A
A
A
This
would
effectively
place
mr
abrazio
on
administrative
leave,
spending
out
his
pto
sick
time,
etc
and
direct
the
city
staff
to
prepare
a
resolution
to
terminate
with
and
without
cost.
Am
I
understanding
that
correctly?
Are
we
all.
B
C
Thank
you.
It's
not
a
question
just
just
for
clarification,
doing
the
parallel
administrative
paid
leave,
while
a
resolution
for
termination
with
cause
how
I
understood
this
to
be
was
at
the
second
vote
of
the
termination
would
cause
if
the
situation
has
changed.
You
can
change
that
to
without
cause
at
that
day
and
he's
going
to
look
into
whether
we'd
have
to
wait
an
additional
30
days
or
not.
That's
how
I
understand
it
and
that's
quite
intent
on
what
I
mean.
A
Yes,
stokes,
yes,
come
on
yes,
mayor
hoffman,
yes,
motion
carries
action
item
two
that
need
to
restrict
the
city
attorney's
access.
Mr
stopop
was
touched
on
that
already
a
little
bit
that
computer
keys,
etc
has
already
been
retained
by
city
staff,
and
the
next
move
will
be
to
restricted
physical
access
to
city
property.
Mr
southopolis,
you
want
to
fill
us
in
there.
Yes,.
A
Thank
you,
sir.
On
this
one.
I
think
we
can
go
ahead
and
take
the
motion,
since
this
one
is
fairly
straightforward.
Mr
nichols,
I.
G
A
C
E
B
A
Mayor
hoffman,
yes,
motion,
carries
item
three
need
for
special
legal
counsel.
Mr
staphos.
E
Yes,
as
we've
indicated,
this
is
a
little
bit
of
uncharted
territory
for
us,
we're
not
sure
what
we
may
or
may
not
need
for
legal
representation
on
this
issue.
As
we
move
forward
over
the
ensuing
weeks
at
least
30
plus
days,
we
would
like
the
ability
to
find
an
appropriate
counsel,
either
an
individual
or
a
firm
to
provide
us
that
guidance
and
assistance
through
the
process
and
they're
seeking
authorization
from
counsel
for
the
city
manager
to
enter
into
such
an
arena.
G
G
F
Is
sustained,
then
you
have
to
go
out
and
find
search
for
a
new
attorney
if
it's
determination
without
pause,
you
still
have
to
do
the
same
thing
for
20
weeks,
so
it
depends.
The
only
way
it
wouldn't
happen
is
that
the
facts
come
out.
This
turns
out
to
be
a
complete
fabrication
that
maybe
you
do,
or
maybe
you
don't
make
a
change.
I
don't
know
it
depends
on
what
happened.
H
E
E
The
process
that
we're
talking
about
is
a
minimum
of
30
plus
days
and
there's
a
possibility
of
a
minimum
of
60
or
60
plus
days,
depending
on
additional
research
that
we
do
so
we're
talking
at
least
a
two
month
window
within
which
we
will
need
some
services
and
then,
if
there
is
a
recruitment
process,
whether
it
be
for
a
firm
or
individual
after
that
date,
that
will
take
some
time
as
well.
That's
that's
why
the
six
months
is
plugged
in
there,
but
depending
on
how
things
happen,
this
has
been
very
fluid.
E
Yeah
we're
basically
going
to
do
an
inventory
of
what
services
we
have
covered
by
existing
contracts.
We
do
have
you
may
remember.
Just
recently,
we
had
an
agreement
coming
from
council
for
balance
to
provide
some
overflow
services
and
some
specificity
with
regards
to
land
use
issues.
We
also
have
mr
holzer,
who
provides
us
labor
labor
law.
We
have
mr
shepard
who's,
providing
us
some
services.
With
regards
to
charter
amendments.
E
We
have
a
bevy
of
other
individuals
that
we're
using
I
hate
to
use
that
word,
but
we
do
have
other
agreements.
So
what
we
need
to
do
is
take
a
look
at
the
expertise
that
each
of
them
provide
and
see
where
we
may
have
gaps
to
our
needs
over
the
next
three
to
six
month
window
and
try
to
fill
those
gaps
as
best
we
can
to
make
sure
we
don't
have
a
hole
in
where
something
gets
delayed
for
an
unacceptable
period
of
time.
Very
good.
G
A
Thank
you,
mr
nichols.
I
wanted
to
say
as
well
that
we're
fortunate
that
we
do
have
a
second
person
in
our
in
our
current
city
attorney's
office
with
our
paralegal
abuse,
so
she
will
help
provide
some
continuity
and
I
think
we're
very
fortunate
in
that.
But
there
are
some
things
that
are
going
to
have
to
take
a
back
burner.
A
We've
been
pretty
ambitious
with
our
with
our
agendas
and
the
issues
that
we've
been
tackling,
so
so
we
will
keep
moving
forward
with
a
purpose
and
thankfully
we
do
have
a
bevy
of
attorneys.
I've
also
been
contacted
by
two
former
city
attorneys
in
the
beaches
area
that
have
offered
their
assistance
and
have
been
very,
very
gracious
in
their
concerns
for
our
city
and
and
our
our
plan
of
work
going
forward.
Mr
danson,
I
I
don't
know
if
this
really
falls
into.
H
D
B
A
Motion
carries
thank
you
all
city
council,

city
staff,
everyone

attendance
and

this
matter
and
