As you come up on, it, you'll see it going north and it's right before, where they built the skate park that they're just doing out there. That's an sn2 mechanism yeah so which they made big. They recently constructed a gym like a cord out there, and then they just did.

G

They're not that we're gonna be.

B

C

I guess we'll get the report to some other time on them like them, because it said they'll report to us updates. um I guess maybe just you updates okay, one and then.

D

The second item is the status on city, where Florida you having their packet right. We call for nominations and I just wanted to give you some bases. If you put this right on our now when you would like this put out in the paper, I did have to get permission from the city manager and also the legal department to improve the honorary, which is going to come out of the library's budget, so clearly cost $1,500 a year. I just meet the date, City Council needs and I, don't know. If you want to rock it.

D

He said the condition was going to present right once you select somebody right, so we don't need.

D

Your makes me if you're meeting in April will be April 16th, so we're gonna have to have a deadline before that, so that the nominations can be considered on April 16th, a miracle to Stevie. Okay,.

C

Okay, so I guess what as soon as possible, we should put this out in.

D

Paper any newspaper, maybe the first Thursday we can do it as soon as the first birthday in March, okay,.

C

And now let me ask the question: is this that can we put this on social media I.

D

Plan to also ask the city secretary to put it on the city's website. Okay and.

C

We can do permission to put it out there. Okay, so.

D

We can have a deadline of April 10th in turn, it was worth it right all nations that will give them a month. Okay, no yeah, no go we'll put it out next week in March and then give them till April 10th to submit for a duration by the Committee on the 16th and then council does have a meeting on the 20th. Do you think that's enough time, and also the library has its Poetry Festival on the 25th? We can invite the poet as a special guest, maybe to read one semester.

C

Would be so, the deadline is going to be April, April, 10th.

C

For applications.

D

The committee will consider them on the 16th, just like we did the year old present me to City Council on the 20th.

D

And then the Poetry Festival done the 2020.

D

Here we've been running for 10 years, we usually get about what we get hundreds of submissions from students and what what I think we had like a thousand and what was the date for the relief it is that it's a Saturday, okay, usually librarians from around the school districts, Tammy ulc.

E

Said we don't know.

D

It's it's in the Internet at two o'clock. It may be presenting their first second and third places of every every.

G

G

So when you think we can post this on social media for where we get that info.

D

You lake, probably the city, will have a link in the under webpage.

D

But hopefully we can get it into the newspaper for Thursday's, which he likes. Thursday's write, something in that he says the communistic. What kind of food.

G

I'm just wondering if there so yeah, very digital application like if somebody wants to do this online I did put a lot of your paper. We.

D

Have it on word so, yes, I, don't know if we can do a PDF, we can convert it to PDF, so they can just put in their information.

Though I put, it is for me the way there were explained to me, it's gonna be almost like a sunburst. The type of the sign that they're doing.

F

C

Mean you know who's designing it. The.

F

Girls they're at the at the same. uh They are working.

E

You went to their case. They have a showcase and I have no reason to tell you because I one of the one that you're talking about is a twin yeah.

F

E

They did, they did and the minute that, were they they're mirroring each other on a tear piece of glass.

E

Chance to watch that because it was I mean the performance of its Ella and you might have a free association. Category is kind of, but twins supposedly have that power until one of them works. They.

G

Just this wandering.

D

Ideas from the Commission with how you want to approach it, I know that a bootie rustic called me, and they wanted a special meeting. Just for this, I told her that we can't call she.

C

Bared she asked me about that a few days ago,.

C

Yeah Regina, the thing is like to get together and talk about it. She wanted to do a special meeting, but we can't do that, but I just told her what we can all get together and hash ideas around just like, as citizens I know,.

D

You're on the committee: don't do that you have a quorum okay, so anything I did tell that. We could do that and maybe have that be the only item from next I think April.

C

March, that would be a good idea, because we can do that.

C

Figure out what we're doing, okay.

F

I don't know if you'll be interested.
