Gorda
employees.
It's
lovely
for
the
program
to
be
just
a
few
short
steps
from
Charlotte
Harbor,
proper
and
Penn

always
been
a
gleaming
gem
on
Charlotte
Harbor
and
we're
so
delighted
with
your
leadership,
your
administration
and
your
staff.
As
we've
made
the
transition
into
the
city,
they
have
been
wonderful.

Did
a
fundraiser
of
August
thirteenth
and
the
10-year
anniversary
of
Hurricane
Charley
with
the
proceeds
to
be
donated
to
first
responders
we
wanted
to
give
to
the
cydia
PD.
They
brought
their
interactive
trailer
for
the
kids.
The
fire
department
brought
their
interactive
trailer
for
the
kids,
so
we
have

I
M

I
just
want

a
couple
of
things:
I
want
to
thank
Dean

Brenda

putting
this
whole
thing

it
was
a
great

O
Jo
Kang
number
187.
We
want
to
go
to
police
department,
you
know
once
again,
everyone
knows
that
we're
very
involved
in
our
community.
One
of
the
major
things
that
we
pride
ourselves
on
is
is
a
different.
A
variety
of
tactics
that
we
use
to
reach
our
children
between
do
the
right
thing
or
jammers
are
interactive
trailer.
O
It's
it's
nice
to
know
that
the
community
and
the
businesses
in
our
community
have
have
recognized
our
efforts
and
support
us
by
by
things
of
this
very
nature.
So
we
want
to
thank
you.
I
just
want
to
throw
props
out
to
last
night,
we
had
an
advantage
culvers
or
per
do
the
right
thing
to
benefit.
Do
the
right
thing,
majority
of
our
staff:
was
there
volunteering
their
time
to
partner
with
culvers
to
raise
money?
O
A
lot
of
you
in
this
room,
councilmember
Freeland
showed
up
a
lot
of
members
of
our
city,
and
our
community
showed
up
to
support
this
event.
And
once
again
you
know
it's
a
it's
all
about
the
kids
to
us
and
we
just
want
to
thank
you
very
much
totals
aren't
totally
in
yet,
but
it
looks
like
we've
raised
close
to
six
hundred
fifty
dollars
last
night.
B
D
B
B
K
Morning
my
name
is
Adam
cummings.
I
work
for
edward
jones
and
I
had
a
couple
of
folks
asked
me
to
submit
for
the
pension
board
the
police
pension
board
and,
if
you
all
wish
for
me
to
serve
I'd
be
happy
to
do
so.
If
it's
upsetting
anyone's
apple
cart,
I
understand
it
was
a
last-minute
thing
and
I
don't
want
to
step
on
any
toes.
So
it's
just
kind
of
your
choice.
While
I've
got
you
when
the
item
comes
up
on
the
bicycle,
should
you
do
choose
to
do
so?
K
B
Okay,
I
would
like
to
call
the
CRA
meeting
to
order.
First,
we
have
citizens
comments
on
CRA
agenda
items
only
and
all
officials
of
the
CRA
are
present
by
the
way,
so
citizens
comments
on
the
minutes.
The
project
status
report
signage
at
the
bait
and
tackle
shop,
sale
of
commercial
space
and
Harrell
court.
Anybody
would
like
to
comment
on
those
items
before
we
begin.
B
E
B
E
P
E
Lashley
park,
the
grass
is
really
now
starting
to
take
shape.
It's
looking
much
better.
There
are
some
soft
spots
that
they've
been
fixing
up.
We've
been
noticing
it
with
all
the
rain
one
side
drains
extremely
well
and
the
other
side
not
as
well
so
they're
working
on
that.
It's
gotten
better.
However,
I
don't
know
if
you've
been
out
there,
but
we've
had
some
vandalism
and
it
was
if
you've
really.
If
you
went
out
there
and
looked
at
it,
it
is
absolutely
so
perfect.
F
E
A
E
L
F
If
I
have
to
look
on
the
bright
side
of
things,
it's
they
just
removed
the
SOT
and
the
sod
can
grow
back
when
I
was
in
high
school.
A
group
did
something
in
they
used
acid
and
they
burnt
the
pattern
with
acid
and
it
got
into
the
soil
and
it
they
tried
all
kinds
of
things
to
remedy
the
situation
in
it.
For
years
the
pattern
was
still
etched
in
that
area.
So
I
think
you
know
we.
E
E
E
Community
park
will
let
the
construction
bid
this
month
at
the
community
park.
In
the
tribute
woods,
neighborhood
downtown
flooding,
phase
two:
it's
basically
done
the
button
woods
are
in,
they
look
nice
and
we're
waiting
for
now
we're
doing
closeout
documents
and
Harvey
endurance
draining
very
well
Olympia
and
McGregor,
not
so
well
at
one
block
they're,
just
not
so
well,
we
didn't
do
any
work
there
either.
So
we'll
see
what
we
have
to
do
then
excuse.
E
E
L
E
E
P
P
Q
And
the
the
two
projecting
signs
one
would
go
by
that
very
last
window
where
people
can
go
into
the
dayroom.
The
other
would
be
at
the
front
entrance
door
as
a
projecting
sign,
the
only
other
sign
that
they
other
signs.
They
had
requested.
Currently
there
there
and
there
has
been
for
a
number
of
years,
this
life
babe
sign
that
was
on
there.
They
compose
improving
upon
that
doing
it
with
the
permanent
mdl
board
material
with
the.
N
Q
Sides
of
that
portion
of
the
building
and
those
would
be
visible
from
the
water
from
where
the
vessels
actually
are,
and
you
know
those
you
know
something
up
there
at
least
so
that
the
you
know
the
bestest
realize
there
is
something
there.
I
think
would
probably
be
helpful.
So
some
questions
that
were
asked
the
facade
sign
will
be
made
with
individual
plastic
lettering
attached
to
the
building
phase
window
signs
will
be
done
with
vinyl
graphics,
the
two
projecting
signs
will
be
made
of
wood
materials
and
the
lettering
will
be
painted.
Q
B
B
L
Q
They
meet
the
requirements
of
a
city,
center,
facade,
sign
for
signed
band
height
and
a
single
band,
since
this
is
zoned
public,
we
don't
really
have
specific
sign
regulations
for
publicly
zoned
property
city
center.
Zoning
is
the
closest
surrounding
zoning
districts
that
we
usually
kind
of
go
to
what
is
permitted
in
the
city
center.
When
we're
looking
at
sign.
F
F
Q
A
B
E
We've
come
up
with
three
options:
maybe
somebody
has
more
first
the
status
quo
and
that,
as
we
continue
to
let
our
leasing
agent
of
find
tenants,
negotiate
with
tenants
along
with
the
CRA
director
and
bring
you
back
some
possible
letters
of
intent.
You
discuss
them
publicly,
go
back,
we
try
and
get
a
lease,
sometimes
we're
not
so
successful
getting
that
lease,
but
that's
the
process.
E
E
We
would
come
up
with
an
appraisal
and
then
put
it
out
on
the
market
or
somebody
to
purchase
and
then
we're
out
of
business.
They
have
a
CO.
We
have
a
land
development
regulations
which
allow
what
types
of
businesses
can
get
in
there
and
they
just
follow
the
code.
The
third
option
is
hire
a
firm,
such
as
a
leasing
agent
to
handle
all
of
the
tenant
leasing
for
us,
not
maintenance,
but
the
leasing
end
of
things.
We
would
give
them
parameters
from
which
to
work
with.
In
other
words,
they
can't
leave
space
for
three
dollars.
E
E
E
B
Start
off
the
status
quo
is
not
working,
I
mean
we've
had
so
many
people
come
and
go
in
this
last
cycle.
That
is
just
not
not
working
out.
So
whatever
the
pleasure
is,
I
think
number
two
or
number
three
is
a
possibility.
Just
to
you
know,
try
to
expedite
or
refreshing
or
whatever.
We
need
to
do
to
try
to
get
some
interest
kim
and
then
Nancy.
You
know
right
what.
I
About
also
considering
leasing
it
like
a
land
lease
like
we
do,
fishermen's
village
or
or
lashley,
so
that
you
know
they
could
lease
that
we
could
also
do
that
so
that
they're
into
it
we're
not
they're,
not
representing
us
we're
not
paying
a
commission,
it's
just
like
fishermen's
village.
They
lease
it,
they
run
it
they
bring.
You
know,
obviously
they
have
to
follow
the
land
development
regulations,
but
that
might
be
another
option.
F
P
Think
we
need
two
things
I'd
like
to
get
for
the
next
meeting,
an
appraisal
and
then
I'd
like
to
have
the
staff
give
me
that
what
parameters
they
would
set.
So
we
know
what
we're
talking
about
before
we
send
them
off
to
sell.
Look.
We
don't
know
right
now
what
to
do
so.
We
get
an
appraisal
for
one
and
then
parameters.
What
set
would
recommend
would
be
really
helpful
too
late.
D
Well,
I
guess:
I,
like
a
combination
I,
like
Kim
suggestion
in
terms
of
leasing
as
well,
and
perhaps
what
we
could
do,
along
with
what
you
have
suggested
Frank
is
to
get
both
an
appraisal
for
both
selling
and
also
for
leasing
and
to
see
how
we
might
go
there
and
the
other
option.
Obviously,
is
you
know
what
probably
the
leasing
might
be
again,
the
middle
component
of
actually
contracting
with
a
private
firm?
D
R
But
what
I
wanted
to
briefly
mention
is
that
if
you
decided,
if
you,
if
you
decided
to
sell
the
unit's,
we
would
need
to
establish
a
commercial
condominium
with
the
commitment
economy,
name,
documents
and
bylaws
and
association
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
So
that's
it's
not
just
simply
we're
going
to
sell
it,
but
that
structure
would
need
to
be
created
unless.
I
R
B
L
If
we're
gonna
consider
selling
it,
I
would
like
to
see
how
we
actually
came
up
with
the
cost
of
the
space
that
we
might
consider
selling
and
the
numbers
that
I've
seen
so
far
come
out
to
about
fifty
dollars
a
square
foot
as
representative
as
a
cost
to
build
that
space.
I,
don't
think
that's
fair
and
accurate.
So
I
would
like
to
see
some
more
detail
on
what
that
space
actually
cost
us
to
build.
When.
A
Region
I,
like
Kim's
idea,
I
haven't
done
and
thought
of
that,
but
I
also
would
like
to
hear
from
lindsey
to
see
what
the
commercial
properties
is
doing
locally
as
far
as
the
selling
or
whether
our
leasing.
What
does
it
look
like
here?
I,
don't
know
commercial
I,
know
residential
but
I,
don't
know
commercial.
S
Lindsey
Harrington
for
the
record,
with
coldwell
banker,
commercial
real
estate
here
in
downtown
punta
gorda.
The
market
has
gotten
a
lot
better
just
this
morning.
Matter
of
fact,
just
to
give
you
an
update,
I
can't
give
you
numbers
for
the
local
mls
which
the
listing
is
in,
but
on
loopnet
in
the
last
180
days
it
was
exposed
3713
times
and
there
was
90
times
the
listing
was
actually
opened
and
viewed
and
looked
into
ok
on
my
Florida
commercial
real
estate
in
the
last
year
it
was
viewed
201
times.
This
is
a
running
tabulation.
S
Okay,
so
it's
getting
exposed
basically
one
viewing
per
day
on
the
internet,
and
so
I
would
offer
another
option,
and
Howard
and
I
have
not
talked
in
detail
about
this.
But
another
option
is
a
consideration
of
Lorne.
Your
ass
price
I
mean
you
you,
but
you've
already
considered
that
already,
but
I
would
urge
you
in
your
analysis,
that
you
obtain
what
the
market
value
is
for
leasing
and
that's
an
actual
number.
You
can
work
with
and
that's
another
avenue
you
could
pursue.
S
I
would
say
to
you
right
now
with
the
exposure
that
bill
and
I
gave
it
and
then
I've
been
giving
it.
You
know
our
challenge
has
been
that
16
dollar
figure
I
just
the
other
day,
showed
some
people
downtown
a
building
that
I
have,
which
is
just
one
block
away
and
we're
asking
$11
a
square
foot
on
it.
Now
the
renovation
costs
on
the
building.
It's
about
2,300
square
feet,
ground
floor
unit.
The
renovation
costs
are
going
to
be
kind
of
tremendous
on
that
and
with
you
all,
you
got
a
vanilla.
S
You
know
plane
wall,
building
that
you're
offering
$35
a
square
foot.
You
know
the
challenge
with
that
$35
a
square
foot
now
that
I'm
thinking
about
it
is
the
fact
that
that
you
have
to
put
the
ACN
and
that
eats
up
a
good
pit
earth
at
$35,
where
you
have
at
the
Sun
loft
and
our
experience
with
the
Sun
law.
If
they're
offering
a
higher
value
to
move
in
and
the
air
conditioner
conditioning
is
already
in.
So
you
see
that
the
challenges
we
have
in
the
marketplace
now
there
are
other
people
in
downtown
punta
gorda.
S
They
asking
higher
value
but
they're
smaller
units.
Okay,
there's
one
it's
a
much
larger.
It's
a
dollar
less
than
us.
Okay,
I
said
much
larger.
It's
a
unit,
that's
about
3,000
square
feet,
it's
at
15,
okay,
there's
an
there's,
a
local
entrepreneur
who
has
units
downtown,
he's,
leasing
or
trying
to
least
keep
maintain
and
he's
over
twenty
dollars
a
square
foot,
but
his
units
are
smaller.
They're,
like
you
know,
a
thousand
nine
hundred
square
feet,
something
that
nature,
but
the
commercial
activity
has
picked
up.
S
There
is
interest
as
a
citizen
I'm
concerned
about,
as
the
Levin
had
said.
You
know
you
have
to
set
up
a
condo
association
and
then,
with
the
conversation,
Association
and
marketing,
the
building,
there's
no
control
all
over
the
cost
of
the
maintenance
of
the
building.
I
think
the
consideration
that
Kim
gave
as
to
just
leasing
out
like
fish
village
is
another
smart
approach
and
looking
at
it
but
again,
I
think
Frank's
comments
and
other

S
I
I'm
in
and
I
think
you're
right.
Fifty
dollars
is
probably
the
number
that's.
Why
I
like
the
leasing
idea
I
think
50
years
ago,
the
people
who
SAT
up
here
thought
the
same
thing
about
Fisherman's
Village.
It
was.
There
wasn't
worth
anything
one
of
the
most
valuable
assets
we
have
in
the
city
and
I
think
we
could
possibly
turn
the
parking
garage
around
like
that
too.
I
N
S
L
Support
that
concept,
my
problem
with
selling
it
is,
we
could
conceivably
sell
an
asset
of
the
CRA
for
substantially
less
than
what
it's
worth
so
I'm,
trying
not
inclined
to.
Unless
we
see
numbers
that
would
justify
that
I
would
not
be
inclined
to
go
that
route.
I
would
prefer
to
go
along
with
what
I'm
suggested.
B
I
have
questions
about
the
land
lease,
because
if
we
did
the
management
Lisa's
like
we
were
talking
about,
we
you
know
they
would
manage
it
for
us,
take
a
management
fee
and
then
the
city
would
be
returned.
The
balance
of
the
revenue.
How
does
the
land
lease
differ
from
that?
Would
we
just
they
would
just
pay
us
a
yearly
suicide.
B
F
Nancy
yeah
I
think
that
I
appreciate
everything
that
Lindsay
and
others
have
tried
to
do
to
market
this,
but
whether
it's
selling
it
outright
or
establishing
a
lease
like
what
we
have
with
Fisherman's
Village.
We
need
to
be
out
of
this
business
and-
and
so
that
would
be
my
objective
is
to
be
out
of
this
business.
We
as
a
city
have
other
things
that
we
do
and
that
we're
good
at
and
we're
not
going
to
being
so.
B
F
F
L
I
F
S
S
B
S
I
would
think
that
that
would
help
them
and
making
their
determination
I
gained.
The
two
questions
you
want
to
put
out
is:
what's
the
value
of
the
building
you
and
Tom
also
need
to
know
what
do
we
have
into
it
or
Caroline
said
it.
We
need
to
know
how
much
we
have
into
it.
Where
are
we
today?
What
do
we
owe?
So
you
make
a
good
decision
and
then
you
need
to
know
the
value
of
what
it
would
be
to
lease.
S
You
know:
what's
what's
the
going
market
in
the
area
for
that
building,
I
had
and
dad
on,
I
had
inquired
with
choir,
which
I
told
Howard
yesterday
about
add.
Some
would
call
me
up
and
ask
what
the
details
on
the
cam
cost
so
you've
got
somebody
out
there
thinking
right
now
about
maybe
a
purchase
and
or
maybe
Kim's
option,
which
would
probably
more
faithful
to
someone
there's
a
multitude
of
options.
You
can
exercise
in
that
land
and
at
least
you
could
take
part
of
their
can
take
in
and
grow
sales.
S
B
L
S
Accurate
number,
and-
and
yes,
you
need
need
to
be
able
to
adjust
that
accordingly
and
that's
going
to
be
probably
one
of
your
problems
in
trying
to
market
it
because
they're
going
to
go,
we
have
no
control
over
these
costs.
We
can't
build
them
out
its
government
bidding
it
out,
not
mr
mrs
smith,
who
have
the
lease
on
that
land
lease
on
that
be
on
floor,
and
so.
L
S
E
D
I
S
You
have
the
exterior
of
the
building.
You've
got
to
maintain
and
there
are
things
out
there
will
happen
just
like
a
little
situation,
the
birds
here
recently.
You
know
the
city
came
in
and
worked
with
a
Bert
situation.
There
and
I
mean
you
need.
You
got
to
be
very
broadly
thinking
about
this.
To
make
sure
you
don't
leave
yourself
one.
Oh,
my
gosh.
We
never
covered
that
and.
E
I
That,
if
we,
if
they
take
care
of
that,
because
if,
if
we're
just
thinking
about
even
a
percentage
of
their
profits,
I
mean
I
would
really
like
to
to
really
think
of
it
in
terms
of
Lisa
it
to
someone
who's
going
to
do
exactly
what
Fisherman's
Village
did
and
make
a
profit
for
themselves,
and
we
get
a
fair
lease
and
they
bring
the
business
downtown.
That's
you
know
our
goal,
my
goal
and.
S
That
that
value-
you,
you
you
use,
don't
get
trapped
like
we
got
trapped
years
ago.
That's
not
worth
much,
and
we
are
now
trapped
into
that
lease.
You
want
adjusted
every
three
five
ten
years
based
on
the
CPI
or
whatever
else
you
have
don't
get
trapped.
Please
I
I
was
here
when
that
village
went
in
Nancy.
L
A
F
Is
not
flood
proofed
enjoy
the
area
there
were
the
storages
and
the
Atelier
is
not
flood
proved,
and
that's
why
that
is
why
the
Atelier
is
there
it
when
it
was
built.
It
was
a
conscious
decision
made
to
not
flood
proof
that
side
of
the
building
and
so
FEMA
will
not
let
you
rent
that
out
to
as
a
normal
retail
space
that
it
has
to
in
order.
If
there
was
a
flood
event,
the
water
has
to
be
able
to
flow
through
there.
That's
why
than
the
I'll
tell
ya.
S
You
could
consider
his
flood
proofing
that
part
and
making
it
you
know
that
it
could
be
leased
out.
I
mean
some
of
it
because
the
head
head
room
is
not
viable,
but
you
could
I
certainly
store
there
but
to
question
there's
another
question
here:
is
storage
to
storage
follow-up
fall
under
the
same
rules
under
FEMA
has
actually
occupied
whether
an
office
like
Thomas
is
alluding
to
we're.
E
S
Want
to
make
a
point
you
I
would
suggest
what
is
the
lease
rate
which
the
viable
lease
rate
for
that
size,
though
size
structures
downtown,
not
releasing
the
entire
floor
out
and
allowing
someone
to
purchase
that
lease
for
peer
time.
I'm
talking
about
the
lease
rate,
which
is
going
lease
rate
market
value
currently
for
that
those
young.

The
gist
of
my
comment
is:
it
is
not
a
slam
dunk,
the
flood
proofing
is
made
it
very
difficult
for
anybody
make
any
kind
of
repairs
or
changes
in
piping
in
the
lower
structure,
and
if
you
put
a
restaurant
in
there,
you're
going
to
have
to
penetrate
two
floors
of
garage,
so
I
guess
what
I'm
saying
is
be
prepared
for
a
price
on
this
building.
That
is
not
all
wonderful
that
there
are
serious
considerations.
G
B
T
Buckley
and
a
little
different
hat
as
member
of
Mac
committee
just
to
comment
on
the
on
the
pump
out
boat,
the
discussion
about
having
the
boat
service
that
area
on
the
west
side
of
close
to
Lemon
Bay
has
pretty
much
been
put
on
hold
because
that
total
operation
up
there
is
illegal.
It's
not
a
designated
Maureen
field.
People
are
living
aboard,
they're,
throwing
their
waste
overboard
and
so
Mac
pretty
much
through
the
omen
on
the
Sheriff's
Department
to
clean
up
an
illegal
act
rather
than
us
contribute
to
it.
K
There
were
some
folks
that
had
contributed
a
team
I
think
a
couple
of
years
ago
we
had
a
contribution
from
Tom
and
Pam
marciniak
and
a
host
of
an
American
groundskeeper
lawn
service
and
a
host
of
Oh
staff
from
the
what
its
key
firm
and
a
host
of
other
small
anonymous
donors.
It's
not
you
know
going
to
pay
for
the
whole
bike.
It's
only
about
a
hundred
and
seventy
two
dollars.
The
effort
was
still
on
going
to
try
to
raise
some
funding
for
it.
K
I
had
been
talking
to
some
folks
from
the
Ricky
King
fund,
south
of
here
it's
a
small
nonprofit.
Normally
they
only
give
to
families
with
disabled
children,
but
the
executive
director
said
she'd.
Take
it
to
the
board
I'd,
be
surprised.
Should
we
proceed
that
they
would
still
move
ahead
with
that,
but
they
did
mention
that
they
have
a
network
amongst
the
people
that
they
serve
to.
K
Let
people
know
when
these
types
of
facilities
or
bicycles
the
amenities
are
available,
and
so,
as
a
couple
of
groups,
that
I
was
hoping
that
I
could
reach
out
to
and
hopefully
make
people
aware,
so
we
could
draw
some
more
people
in
for
that
amenity
and
hopefully
draw
another
client
base
and
the
Punta
Gorda.
Thank
you.
Thank.
