All
right,
thank
you.
Our
next
scheduled
meeting
is
may
17th.
As
far
as
I
know,
we
have
an
agenda
that
warrants.
Having
a
meeting.
Does
anyone
now
know
that
they
cannot
attend
on?
May
19
17th?
Yes,
mr
nabi?
Okay,
thank
you
all
right
may
17th.
It
is
coming
up
approval
of
the
minutes
january
19th.
What
is
your
question?
G
G
G
G
Sometimes
one
of
the
boats
will
even
cut
across
and
get
in
between
the
other
two
that
are
passing.
Sometimes
there
are
both
people
on
kayaks
or
on
paddle
boards.
That
s-curve
is
it's
like
out
of
control.
I'm
going
to
use
the
word
zoo,
not
all
the
time,
but
most
of
the
time
it
is
the
a
lot
of
the
boaters.
I'm
not
not
everybody,
okay,
it's
the
bad
ones.
You
remember
total
disregard
to
people
working
on
their
boats,
even
after
being
mentioned
to
slow
down.
I
wear
orange
and
an
orange
hat
I'll.
G
G
The
the
dark
destruction,
especially
at
high
tide,
I
don't
think
a
lot
of
the
speeders-
realize
the
damage
they're,
doing
not
only
to
the
sea
walls
but
to
the
private
docks.
You
get
a
high
tide
where
the
water's
about
this
far
from
the
bottom
of
your
dock
and
you
get
a
boat
coming
in,
throwing
a
two
three
foot:
wake
that
goes
under
the
dock
and,
if
you're
standing
that
you
can
actually
feel
movement
of
your
dock
after
a
while.
Your
piling
supports
are
gonna
drop
next
thing:
you
know
your
dock
is
cracked.
G
G
I
know
you
guys
have
probably
heard
all
this
before
I'm
just
going
off.
I
I
honk
an
air
horn.
It's
not
fair
to
my
neighbors.
The
guy
across
the
canal
is
now
getting
the
brunt
of
me.
Honking
my
air
horn,
I'll
yell,
slow
down
and
I'll
either
get
told
off
or
they'll
flip
the
bird
and
just
keep
on
going.
G
G
You
know.
I
really
think
we
need
some
kind
of
actual
enforcement
of
of
the
speed
on
in
the
canals
on
my
boat.
I
have
a
butt.
I
have
a
button
that
says
no
wake.
When
I
push
that
button,
it'll
bring
me
between
4.8
to
5.1
miles
an
hour.
I
can
steer
I've
told
people
that
they're
going
that
they're
supposed
to
be
minimum,
wake,
slow,
speed
and
they'll.
Tell
me
where
I
am
going
and
I'll
tell
them.
Do
you
dock
at
that
speed?
G
G
Where
are
you
gonna?
Pull
the
boats
over
I'm
suggesting
that
you
could
put
cars
on
vacant,
lots
with
cameras
and
video
them
and
have
a
pickup
boat
out
in
alligator,
creek
or
down
on
the
other
end
out
in
the
harbor
when
they
get
through
ponds,
you're
not
going
to
get
everyone
all
the
time,
but
you
get
a
few
and
after
the
word
gets
out
that
people
are
being
stopped
and
and
given
summonses,
and
I
think
this
is
the
time
to
do
it.
A
lot
of
people
are
leaving
it'll
be
easier
to
do.
C
E
C
C
C
Just
while
you're
getting
there,
as
my
colleagues
have
said,
we
are
not
the
perhaps
the
proper
group
to
address
this
too.
It
is
a
police
matter
and
therefore
a
council
matter.
I
suspect
so,
but
I'd
be
happy
to
hear
your
comments,
but
we
should
convey
them
where
you
should
convey
them
to
either
the
person
on
council
who's
from
your
district
or
council
in
general
and
chief
davis
for
them
for
them
to
hear
it.
B
My
name
is
angelo
moscalino.
I
live
at
5740,
elmar,
I'm
on
what
I
call
the
foot
of
almar
and
you
can
see
from
your
sketch
when
buckley
pass
was
talked
about
and
created.
It
was
to
get
people
into
the
harbor
quicker,
and
it's
done
that.
The
only
problem
is,
nobody
listens
to
no
wake,
it's
310
feet
or
310
yards
approximately
90
foot
wide,
and
what
I'm
requesting
is
that
that
short
area
we
go,
go
down
to
a
no
wake
zone
and,
as
you
can
see
my
ladder,
I
go
back
to
it.
B
There's
no
cross
currents
in
the
canal,
so
there's
no
reason
to
do.
12,
14
15
miles
an
hour
perfect
example-
and
this
is
just
an
example-
here's
this
morning's
picture,
the
last
page
that
guy's
bucking
through
there
12
to
15
miles
an
hour
he's
throwing
a
two
three
four
foot:
wake
that
and
he's
only
about
25
foot
away
from
the
mangroves,
because
it's
very
narrow
there.
You
can
see
my
boat
docked
and
I
got
and
and
the
docks
there.
B
It's
only
90
foot
wide,
take
out
10
12
feet
for
the
boat
and
take
another
six
or
seven
out
for
the
dock.
You
can
see,
there's
very
small
area
to
run
that
weight
goes
underneath
our
dock
and
you
can
see
it's
almost
high
tide.
It
slops
up
underneath
there
it's
cracking
the
heck
out
of
my
dock,
my
wife
and
I
have
been
yelling
at
people
all
summer
long
or
all
winter
long,
I
should
say:
we've
been
insulted,
we've
been
given
a
finger,
we've
sworn
to
we're
just
tired
of
it.
B
There's
no
reason
why
we
should
have
to
put
up
with
this.
The
police
come
there
and
they
drive
up
and
they
drive
down
they're
out
for
joyride,
I'm
not
trying
to
pick
on
them,
but
I
don't
think
they
know
what
they're
supposed
to
do
there.
I'm
not
trying
to
be
rude
when
my
suggestion
is
here
is
that
foot
takes
all
the
traffic
that
goes
out
to
the
harbor.
Basically,
50
of
the
pgi
people
go
left
the
other
go
right.
I
get
all
the
people
that
go
right.
B
J
B
Why
not
catch
them
there
or
say
something
to
them?
When
I
launch
my
boat,
I
gotta
go
bang
bang
up
against
the
up
against
my
high
alliance.
I
gotta
try
to
plow
myself
on
try
to
get
my
grandkids
out
with
them.
Get
the
legs
broke,
people
either
don't
know
or
they
don't
care
and
there's
a
large
number
of
that.
As
you
can
see,
you
can
see
from
my
lip
here.
I'm
not
here
to
you
guys
heard
it
all,
and
women
heard
it
all.
We
need
some
help.
The
police
aren't
giving
it
to
us.
B
B
It
has
to
be
looked
at
and
I
don't
know
who
to
look
at
if
you're
telling
me
to
go
to
the
police.
The
police
are
telling
me
to
come
here
because
it's
a
canal
issue.
Obviously
it's
falling
through
the
cracks.
We
need
some
help
there.
You
know
we
have
manatees
certain
times.
A
year
through
there
I
tell
people
to
slow
down
for
the
manatees,
they
don't
care.
I
mean
okay,.
K
K
There's
about
three
spots,
where
it's
designated
no
wake,
but
that's
in
between
pilings,
coming
in
pompano,
over
at
bass,
inlet
past
fisherman's,
village
and
in
ponce
is
involved
with
the
rest
of
the
system.
Is
minimum
wake
it's
slow,
speed,
minimum
wake,
meaning
the
boat
is
supposed
to
be
settled
in
the
water
and
creating
no
wake
and
not
up
on
floor.
C
And
the
new
ordinance
has
a
variety
of
new
language
which
defines
what
no
way
settled
in
the
water
etc.
Is
that's
important?
I
appreciate
your
comments.
Let
let's
you've
given
us
a
document.
We've
heard
at
least
two
folks
here
as
I've
said:
we're
not
the
body,
that's
going
to
enforce
it,
but
we
can
lend
our
voice
to
to
make
sure
you're
heard
and
we'll
talk
about
it
a
little
more
but
yeah.
I
C
B
What
it
comes
down
to
be,
we
need
your
help.
There's
seven
houses
there,
I'm
the
only
house-
that's
occupied
this
year
because
of
the
a
lot
of
canadians
and
they
haven't
come
down
now.
I'm
gonna
go
away
for
a
couple
weeks
and
do
some
traveling
it's
like.
Is
it
going
to
be
I'm
not
there
yelling,
so
they're
going
to
go
back
15
miles
an
hour.
I
mean
we
really
need
your
help
and
somebody
needs
to
look
at
it
and,
I
said
police
say,
go
to
you.
You
say
go
to
the
police.
B
K
B
When
you
come
in
through
pots
and
you
go
into
pgi,
that's
a
huge
area
right
there
I
mean
it's
like
a
couple
hundred
feet
or
a
thousand
feet.
You
know
that
it's
we've
all
driven
in
there
I
get
in
theory,
I
get
the
same
amount
of
traffic
now
on
my
elmar
side
in
an
area.
That's
maybe
40
foot
by
50
foot,
where
they.
L
B
C
C
E
F
C
E
Might
complete
early
this
year
so
well,
we
had
we
started
a
new
program
where
you
know
we
gave
them
the
work
program
a
year
in
advance.
Here
you
schedule
it,
you
need
to
get
it
done
so
and
it
seems
to
be
working
very
well
for
everybody
and
schedules
are
made
to
be
broken.
You
know
some
people
have
requested
projects
to
be
shifted
and
we've
been
able
to
accommodate
that.
So
it's
worked
out
very
well.
E
M
M
M
And
dredging
permit
we're
still
working
through
procurement
to
get
that
scope
finalized
and
get
that
out
on
the
street
and
then,
under
that
same
master,
permit
agreement,
we've
got
the
lashley,
marina,
submerged
land
lease
and
we're
working
with
procurement
on
that
as
well.
That
doesn't
apply
to
you
guys,
but
it's
underneath
that
the
master
permitting
scope.
M
N
L
O
O
As
part
of
this
request,
they
also
will
be
constructing
a
dock
that
would
be
within
the
45
degree
angles.
The
request
is
before
you,
because
three
of
the
pilings
and
a
portion
of
both
the
attached,
walkway
and
a
portion
of
the
boat
lift,
would
extend
outside
the
structure
limitation
lines
per
plat.
This
property
has
35
feet
of
seawall.
O
O
This
picture
on
the
overhead
is,
is
the
boat
and
lift
that
they
currently
have?
As
you
can
see,
the
approach
angle
requires
them
to
basically
parallel
the
sea
wall
at
the
end
of
the
canal,
at
the
adjoining
vacant
lot
and
in
in
short
time
that
will
most
likely
not
be
an
accessible
way
for
them
to
to
get
on
and
off
their
their
boat
lift
once
that
property
develops.
So
they
would
be
repositioning
this.
This
boat
lift
more
or
less
at
about
a
90
degree
turn
from
where
it
is
now
the
boat.
O
O
The
piling
nearest
the
sea
wall
would
be
eight
feet
out.
The
dock
that
they're
proposing
is
is
eight
feet
wide,
so
nearest
or
closest
piling
to
the
sea
wall
eight
feet
the
furthest
piling
out
would
be
23
feet.
Waterway
from
the
seawall
staff
has
evaluated
the
the
request,
and
again,
I
believe
the
applicant
or
the
applicant's
agent
will
will
further
elaborate
on
this,
but
chapter
six,
the
section
2-1
e4
that
provides
the
six
criteria
that
that
are
to
be
evaluated
when
considering
a
special
permit
request.
O
H
Good
mark,
though
so
I
personally,
I
agree
with
the
staff
recommendations
and
I'm
not
questioning
that
other
than
we
all
just
attended
this
training
mandatory
training
recently,
and
this
seems
to
me
to
be
in
conflict
with
what
we
were
exposed
to
at
that
training.
So
can
you
elaborate
on
that?
Why,
in
light,
unless
I'm
misunderstanding,
the
training
just
tell
me
why
your
recommendation
is
not
in
conflict
with
that.
O
Well
again,
the
six
criteria
that
are
to
be
used
as
whether
it's
in
harmony
with
the
general
intent
and
purpose
of
the
article
in
the
past
we've
had
some
people
object
to
that
say
you
know
we
have
a
code
of
ordinances.
Why
don't
people
adhere
to
those?
There
is
a
specific
section
in
chapter
six
that
allows
for
special
permits
such
as
this
to
be
applied
for
so
I
believe
they've
met
the
general
intent
of
that
article
certainly
wouldn't
be
injurious
to
the
waterway
involved.
It
does
not
impede
safe
damage.
Navigation.
H
C
D
D
You
know
subjective
comments
or
thoughts
on
our
own
and
even
to
the
point
where
it's
inappropriate
for
the
committee
to
consider
objections
from
neighbors
who
are
concerned
about
vue
or
anything
else
that
we
we
have
to
use
the
specific
six
requirements
that
are
in
the
that
are
in
the
code
and
and
that's
the
way
I
took
it.
So
that's
I.
P
P
So
if
something
was
built
in
there
basically
he's
stuck.
This
is
the
one
that
up
a
good
example
of
what
I
was
trying
to
bring
up
in
the
corner
of
san
marino,
where
we
had
done
a
special
exception,
pulling
in
straight
and
kind
of
how
it's
proposed
here
compared
to
the
adjacent
corner
that
was
fit
into
the
45
degree
like
this
and
there's
a
big
boat.
So
he
can't
unless
the
neighbors
in
town
move
his
boat,
he
can't
even
use
a
boat
lift.
I
C
F
C
I
I
guess
I
didn't
hear
it
that
way
either.
I
I'm
more
on
where
mr
dye
is
that
there
is
a
process
by
which
we
can
grant
exceptions
and
as
long
as
we're
not
a
strictly
governed
by
precedent,
which
I
think
in
the
past
we
have
been,
and
as
long
as
we
meet
those
six
criteria
on
this
individual
case,
then
we
have
the
the
prerogative
to
approve
such
permits.
K
C
And
and
to
the
extent,
I
think
they
commented
in
the
application
itself,
the
questions
are
asked
and
I
believe
in
the
documents
they
are
answered
in
the
affirmative,
that
they
meet
the
criteria
so
making
the
case
in
that
sense
is
in
the
documents
as
they
stand
today.
At
least
that
says
how
I
see
it,
which
is
not
to
say
it's.
H
J
H
C
D
I
I
think
one
of
the
things
that's
missing.
First
of
all,
I
thought
that
was
very
helpful.
Obviously
it
wasn't
totally
clear
because
we
all
heard
something
different,
but
I
thought
it
was
it
was.
I
thought
it
was
clearly
presented
that
we
have
to
get
away
from
the
you
know,
subjective
evaluation
of
this
and
stick
strictly
to
how
it
applies.
D
D
So
we
all
got
this
education,
but
we
haven't
made
an
effort
to
go
out
to
the
contractors
yet
who
have
an
obligation,
the
contractors
and
their
and
their
property
owners
to
understand
that
they've
got
a
requirement
to
present
this
and
demonstrate
to
us
that
it
does
in
fact
support
all
six
criteria,
and
so
I
think
mike
and
the
rest
of
the
contractors
probably
would
could
benefit
from
some
of
that.
And
maybe
we
could
clear.

Kathy
miller
canal
maintenance
in
your
packet,
you
have
the
meeting
minutes
to
the
january
20th
council
meeting
where
the
seawall
study
was
presented
to
them
and
the
council
had
approved
all
of
pretty
much
all
of
staff's
recommendations,
except
for
the
assessment
increase,
and
they
had
asked
that
we
come
back
to
the
advisory
boards
to
get
some
kind
of
community
awareness
and
greater
consensus
of
the
cost.
Okay.
E
Yes,
their
concern
was
that
we
had
some
capital
projects
that
were
being
considered
and
they
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
our
public
was
aware
of
the
increase.
Obviously,
public
public
meetings
are
not
really
desirable
right
now,
due
to
covid.
So
that
is
not
one
way.
That's
not
a
desirable
way
of
reaching
out
to
our
community.
E
We
had
had
several
meetings
talking
about
the
sea
wall
study
as
we
went
through
the
seawall
study
and
all
the
different
alternatives
and
stuff
like
that.
I
feel
as
though
we
have
discussed
it
at
length
and
all
of
our
meetings
are
always
televised
or
they're
on
youtube
for
the
public
to
look
at
so
we
we
need
to
go
back
to
the
board
with
something
that
says.
We
feel
as
though
we
have
done
our
due
diligence.
D
E
So
the
council
is
they
get
a
copy
of
our
meeting
minutes
every
month.
Every
time
we
have
a
meeting,
they
get
a
copy
of
the
meeting
minutes
they're
aware
of
our
meetings.
They
knew
about
the
seawall
study.
They
approved
the
contract.
They
knew
that
we
were
working
on
it,
so
they
were
aware.
Okay,
now,
whether
or
not
I
don't
know
if
they
read
them.
Okay,
I
apologize.
I
was
not
at
that
particular
meeting.
I
was
sick
that
day.
So
in
the
meeting
minutes,
it
talks
about
the
importance
of
increasing
the
assessments.
C
Just
just
so,
ms
miller
is
not
taking
all
the
heat
here.
A
lot
of
this
is
me
saying:
what
are
we
going
to
do
with
respect
to
the
councils
directing
it
back
at
us
and
what?
What
exactly
are
we
supposed
to
do
with
this?
So
we
are
here
looking
at
what
they
have
said,
but
just
to
go
back
to
where
we
were.
To
recap,
we
saw
the
taylor
study
first
early
in
the
in
the
season,
but
considered
it
in
the
presentation
in
september.
C
We
then
got
a
staff
recommendations
in
october
and
the
minutes
of
our
meeting
reflect
that.
We
did
in
fact
consider
whether
there
was
a
100
or
150
dollar
increase
in
the
assessment,
and
we
also
considered
that
taylor
had
in
fact
said
you
got
to
go
much
bigger
than
that
in
order
to
match
what
the
potential
end
of
service
life
is
going
to
mean
for
your
budget,
even
as
high
as
22
000
feet
per
year
versus
our
current
about
5
000
feet
per
year.
C
I
C
To
do
the
job,
but
we
would
we
would
start
there
and
at
least
provide
that
as
the
beginning
point
for
budget
consideration.
So
that's
what
we
went
to
the
council
with
bsi
did
a
similar
thing.
They
were
at
a
hundred
dollars
additional
assessment
and
they
got
the
same
message
from
counsel
back.
Think
about
public
awareness.
Think
about
other
things.
So.
E
And,
let's
not
forget
that
our
budgets
can
be
adjusted
every
year.
If
we
think
we
need
to
increase
that
assessment,
then
we
can
start
that
process
if
we
want
to
reduce
that
assessment,
because
we
have
a
large
capital
project
coming
on,
we
can
do
that
process
also,
okay,
but
it
was
just
to
get
things
rolling.
Just
to
start
the
budget
process.
C
Just
just
to
add
to
that,
the
whole
process
of
assessment
is
vested
in
the
the
body
that
governs
the
assessment
district,
which
in
this
case
is
council
and
the
the
document
or
the
paragraph
that
says.
How
do
you
deal
with
assessments
requires
the
body
the
council
to
hold
as
part
of
the
regular
budget,
public
hearings
on
the
assessment
annually,
so
that
will
have
to
happen
as
part
of
the
budget.
E
D
Q
C
C
E
K
E
H
But
the
consultant
told
us
that
it
needs
to
be
substantially
higher
than
that.
So
even
recommending
150
is
disingenuous
because
that
doesn't
come
close
to
covering
what
people
in
the
future
are
going
to
have
to
bear
and
the
longer
you
don't
do
it.
The
you're
just
pushing
that
wave
and
it's
just
going
to
get
higher
and
higher
until
it
comes
crashing
down
on.
L
H
H
Included
seawall
materials,
so
it
was
a
contract,
a
recommendation,
but
they
approved
the
recommendation,
but
the
recommendation
included
a
substantially
higher
increase
in
the
revenues
than
what
was
recommended
and
what's
being
challenged.
Is
the
lower
amount
of
the
recommendation?
I
don't
get
it
I
mean
if
you
you're
gonna,
say
we
want
this
kind
of
sea
wall
and
this
is
what
it
costs,
and
this
is
how
much
you
gotta
replace
every
year
or
you're.
Gonna
have
collapsing
sea
walls,
and
this
is
how
much
you
do
the
math
and
it
costs
this
much
money.
E
That
is
correct,
but
it
was
a
stepping
stone
again.
Our
recommendation
to
this
board
here
was:
it
was
a
stepping
stone.
We
can
make
changes
the
following
budget
year
again,
we
can
increase
it
or
reduce
it
or
do
whatever
we
wanted
to
do.
It
was
a
stepping
stone
and
we
start
our
budget
processes
in
january.
E
Okay,
so
we
we
needed
some
direction
from
the
advisory
board
and
from
council
to
figure
out
how
we
were
going
to
set
our
budgets.
So
so
here
we
are
in
may
to
present
the
budgets
to
you.
Okay
and
council
has
said
that
they
didn't
agree
with
the
increase,
so
we
create,
we
created
our
budgets
based
on
that
directive.
K
E
They
just
wanted
us
to
make
the
public
aware
that
we
were
increasing
it.
That
was
their
only
concern.
Is
they
just
wanted
more
public
awareness,
more
public
education?
How
do
we
do
that?
Do
we?
Do
we
write
a
letter
to
counsel
and
tell
them
that
you
know
we
thought
through
our
meetings
and
stuff
that
we
we've
provided
that
opportunity?
E
J
Very
great,
thank
you
for
the
record.
Rick
keaney
director
of
public
works,
just
you
know,
for
those
who
may
be
new
and
haven't
been
through
the
budget
process,
and
some
of
you
have
so
what's
going
to
happen
when
finance
comes
and
we
propose
the
budget
to
you.
Folks
is
you're
going
to
make
a
recommendation
to
council.
We
made
our
recommendation
already
through
the
presentation.
Council
heard
the
same
presentation.
J
We
gave
you
with
all
the
options
and
we
gave
the
recommendation
150
dollars.
Now
when
finance
comes
and
talks
to
you,
along
with
staff,
you
can
still
still
make
the
150
increase
recommendation.
If
you
want
once
you
see
the
whole
budget,
our
cip
projects
that
we
have
proposed,
and
if
you
still
want
to
stick
with
that
recommendation,
that's
fine
finance
can
do
the
performa.
That
would
indicate
what
you're
proposing,
if
you
still
want
to
stay
with
the
150..
J
C
We
are.
We
are,
in
essence,
not
empowered
to
hold
public
hearings
on
this
because
we
have
no
jurisdictional
right.
It
is
council
that
should
be
doing
this
and
is
actually
compelled
to
do
it
by
the
the
mandate
of
the
canal
assessment
district.
So,
from
my
point
of
view
and
strictly
my
point
of
view
is
I
I
would
go
back
to
what
we
have
already
said.
That
is,
we.
C
We
think
it's
a
stepping
stone,
150
assessment
and
that
we're
going
to
have
to
visit
this,
perhaps
even
more
aggressively
next
year
and
the
year
after
that
and
subsequent
when
we're
all
dead,
we're
not
on
this
committee,
and
that
will
be
true.
This
is
going
to
be
a
problem
that
we've
we
will
bequeath
to
our
successors.
C
J
And
we
will
make
sure
that
finance
includes
that
in
the
presentation.
What
makes
it
easy
about
that
this
150
it's
under
one
line
item,
so
it's
not
like
you're
adjusting
all
the
line
items
it's
that
money
was
supposed
to
be
used
for
seawall
replacement.
So
there's
one
line
item
for
that,
so
we
will
make
sure
we
relay
that
to
finance
that
that
shows
that
and
again
at
that
meeting,
then
you
can
make
your
recommendation
again.
J
L
I
Q
With
not
knowing
the
history
of
this
to
me,
it
sounds
you
know.
I
hear
the
term
stepping
stone.
Okay,
I
saw
the
video
of
the
city
council
discussion
and
my
take
on
what
was
was
being
said
was
that
we
were
we
were
hitting
the
public
with
a
lot
of
increases
and
the
city
council
was
concerned
that,
with
all
that
was
coming
up,
it
was
going
to
be
pushed
back.
Q
Q
So
I
have
you
know
kind
of
torn
to
me.
If
we're
doing
a
stepping
stone
approach
to
this,
I
would
take
a
smaller
bite
each
year
for
the
next
10
years
and
make
the
recommendation
that
it'd
be.
However
long,
it's
going
to
take
us
to
get
up
to
where
we
need
to
be
as
far
as
seawall
replacements
go,
but
I
don't
have
a
history
too.
E
And
also
just
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
history,
let's
not
forget.
Just
a
few
years
ago,
our
assessments
were
650
a
year,
and
that
was
because
of
irma.
Okay,
we
reduced
them
because
fema
ended
up
paying
90
percent
of
that
that
price
tag
and
we
ended
up
paying
off
our
loan
early.
So
we
were
able
to
reduce
our
assessments
back
down
to
550.,
so
I
didn't
think
we
heard
too
much
grumblings
when
our
assessments
were
at
6.50.
At
least
I
did
not.
E
L
C
Any
other
comments
questions
I
I
heard
that
we
are
still
in
general
agreement
with
the
whether
we
call
it
a
stepping
stone
or
an
increase
and
that
we
keep
an
eye
on
all
of
this.
So
all
right
and
we'll
see
it
again
in
may
yes
and
we'll
have
another
opportunity
to
maybe
take
something
more
official.
If
you
will
yes,
all
right.
C
E
I
just
wanted
to
welcome
mr
ludwig
to
the
committee.
Please
reach
out
to
me.
If
you
want
to
get
together
and
just
talk
about
history,
other
information,
I
can
provide
you
with
documentation,
answer
any
questions
you
have,
I'm
certainly
available.
Give
me
a
call.
We
can,
like,
I
said,
set
up
a
one-on-one
meeting
and
I
can
give
you
a
bunch
of
stuff.
Okay,.
C
I'm
going
to
suggest
just
if
you
agree
that
I
either
write
a
letter
or
call
chief
davis
about
the
comments
that
we
got
this
morning
and
just
report
that
we've
had
this
come
to
us
and
we
have
encouraged
them
to
talk
to
the
police
and
go
directly
to
do
that.
I
know
it's
been
a
discussion
among
council
members
with
even
more
elaborate
discussion
about
what
no
wake,
what
minimum
wake
means
and
what
the
definitions
are.
C
N
F
E
Just
for
your
information,
it's
not
as
simple
as
just
posting
a
sign.
We
have
to
have
it
permitted.
We
have
to
have
public
meetings.
I
have
to
show
just
cause
to
army
corps
of
engineers,
and
the
state
and
just
cause
is
how
many
accidents
were
there?
How
many
tickets
were
written?
It
has
to
be
a
substantial
reason.
So
it's
just
not
like
hey.
We
see
an
issue
we'd
like
to
post
a
sign,
it
there's
a
permit,
that's
involved
and
and
there's
it
has
to
go
to
state
legislature.
H
H
Clearly,
this
picture,
whether
this
is
no
wake
or
minimum
wake,
that's
excessive,
and
if
I
was
in
a
position
to
ticket
him
I
would
have
so,
but
I'm
not.
So
I
think
it's
an
enforcement
issue
and
what
what
kind
of
troubles
me
a
little
bit
is
that
we
have
citizens
who
are
getting
the
run
around
and
I
don't
know
who
he
said:
he'd
talk
to
the
police.
Did
he
really
talk
to
the
police?
Did
he
talk
to
the
the
volunteers?
H
I
mean
who
really
told
him
to
go
to
the
canal,
because
I
don't
believe
that
a
police
officer
would
have
said
go
to
the
canal
that
that
just
doesn't
make
any
sense,
because
they
would
have
known
that
we're,
not
the
enforcement.
So
so
to
me
it's
an
enforcement
issue,
not
a
sign
issue.
I
think
the
ordinance
is
already
there.
I
mean
I
wouldn't
chase
my
tail
putting
up
a
sign.
I
would
chase
the
people
out
there,
whatever
it
takes
to
to
because
he's
right.
H
H
M
Yeah
yeah,
I
spoke
with
officer
trufan
a
couple
weeks
ago
and
we
had
our
senior
our
kathy
senior
inspector
on
the
job
site.
We
were
doing
a
job
there
at
alamar
and
the
guys
on
the
barge
were
having
a
tough
time
because
the
boats
were
coming
through
so
fast
they
were
rocking
the
barge
when
we
were
trying
to
get
some
seawall
work
done.
So
he
asked
me
to
get
in
touch
with
the
police
department
to
go
out
there
and
see
if
we
could
slow
folks
down.
