During
today's
session
there
will
be
taking
breaks
or
maybe
a
crapper
to
change
the
tapes
so
we'll
have
those
probably
about
10-15,
1130,
etc.
We
have
several
proclamations
and
presentations
this
morning,
but
before
we
begin
I'd
like
for
us
all
to
reflect
on
the
unrest
that
has
been
occurring
in
cities
across
our
country
and
acknowledge
all
that
we
have
to
be
thankful
for
our
home
community.
D
A
Young,
our
residents
here
in
Punta
Gorda
in
the
Charlotte
County,
have
been
leaders
in
ensuring
integration
of
our
schools
and
our
businesses.
Well
before
the
rest
of
the
country.
We
should
be
so
proud
of
our
heritage.
We
should
be
so
proud
of
and
increase
our
differences,
whether
it
was
up
with
our
neighbor
next
door,
neighbor
down
the
street
or
a
neighbor
across
town.
It
should.
A
Are
flirty
our
churches,
our
police,
for
recognizing
that
we
must
not
take
our
lack
of
strife
for
granted
but
continue
the
progress
that
has
been
made.
We
must
continue
to
join
together
in
conversation,
maintaining
open
and
honest
communication
and
want
to
further
the
cause
of
peace,
justice
and
community
unity.

at

a

among
those
who

it's

where,
as
Public

are
an

everything

Effectiveness
of

as
well
as
their

is
highly
dependent
upon
efforts

of
Public

and
whereas
the
efficiency
of
the

we

is
materially
influenced
by
the
people's
attitude

that

of

city
of
Punta,

Florida
Carolyn
him
bring
the
mayor
and
cepting
as
she
returned.
E
N
My
name
is
Michael
her
life
care,
residence
of
Punta
Gorda
since
2002,
first
in
PG,
I
and
then
in
seminole
lakes.
I
want
to
thank
Howard
communic,
the
city
manager
in
the
city
council,
for
giving
us
this
opportunity
to
publicly
find
lining
that
wall
they're
responsible
for
that
apparently
still
alive.
N
Let
me
tell
you
what
happened
I
had,
but
four
thirty
in
the
afternoon
on
every
11
I
was
home,
some
in
a
laced
waiting
for
Karen
to
get
back
from
the
dentist,
the
doorbell
rang,
and
there
was
a
state
trooper
standing
there,
and
he
said
mr.
Hirsch,
your
wife
has
been
in
a
very
bad
car
crash
and
at
that
point
everything
stops
and
the
only
thing
I
can
think
of
is
what's
the
next
sentence.
N
So
here's
what
happened
she
was
coming
back
from
the
dentist
she
was
in
front
of
where
sweet
they
used
to
date
and
we're
about
to
say
we
didn't
know
until
four
or
five
days
later,
when
they
took
a
two
part
of
her.
She
could
speak,
but
a
car,
probably
turning
off
of
eight
line
going
westbound
recline
turning
south
come
on.
41
hit
the
back
of
her
car
on
the
left
side,
forcing
her
car
off
the
road
down
the
hill,
and
that
was
the
result.
This
happened
in
a
peppery
11th
in
the
tire
marks
are
still.
N
N
N
N
He's
a
fourth-grade
teacher,
it's
how
he
comes
and
he
do
jumped
in
the
water
Taryn
remembers
going
down.
The
hill
remembers
the
car
rolling.
She
remembers
hanging
seatbelt
and
trying
to
unhook
it
letterheads
going
in
and
out
of
water.
We've
had
rain
a
couple
days
before
in
there
was
probably
a
foot
and
a
half
of
water
in
the
ditch.
You
that's
what
she
was
in,
so
they
actually
had
to
get
in
the
car
and
get
her
out.
Her
leg
was
doubled
over
back
on
the
steering
wheel.
N
They
got
her
out
and
on
the
slope.
I
don't
use
the
hero,
work
very
healthy,
but
it's
appropriate
here
about
that
time.
Fire
truck
from
station
to
riot
and
the
cheeky
is
going
to
be
introducing
all
this
people
in
a
moment,
but
they
need
you
look
at
the
situation
and
Oh
helicopter,
which
was
the
next
step
in
this
chain.
At
the
safer
glad
they
began
working
hard
around
the
slope
about
a
minute.
Later,
the
ambulance
of
the
fire
station,
the
county
fire
station
on
Notre
Dame
arrived.
N
N
N
It
was
a
treat
for
them,
so
they
treat
for
me
anyhow.
They
worked
on
during
the
helicopter
for
probably
12
or
13
minutes
and
I
got
to
the
memorial,
and
they
put
me
into
the
trauma
center.
The
doctor
told
me
they
had
already
done
to
complete
cat
scan
of
her
body
and,
amazingly,
she
had
no
internal
injuries,
no
broken
bones.
They
were
treating
her
as
a
near
drowning
victim,
and
that
was
the
problem
she
was
in.
N
N
We
had
to
go
in
through
the
ER
the
airmen
ii
memorial
has
20
beds,
they
had
70
registered
patients,
patients
who
are
on
birdies
on
chairs
sitting
on
the
floor
in
the
air,
always
I'm,
not
talking
about
the
waiting
room,
I'm
talking
about
people
who
in
triage
and
need
to
be
in
the
hospital
about
six
hours
later
she
was
over
the
I,
see
you
again
and
then
plotted
days
later,
she
had
had
on
oxygen
and
not
too
long
ago.
She
got
off
of
oxygen.
P
Thank
you
Michael.
It's
my
absolute
honor
and
pleasure
to
to
be
part
of
this
today
and
I
think
Michael
Karen
for
putting
it
together
in
our
industry.
We
talk
about
a
chain
of
survival
and,
as
with
any
chain,
is
dependent
upon
each
link,
and
what
we
see
today
are:
these
are
all
valuable
or
vital
links
in
the
chain
of
survival.
If
one
of
those
links
is
missing
or
broken,
it
just
doesn't
work.
P
P
P
I
N
This
is
taken
about
two
months
after
the
accident
and
I
have
something
to
the
chief
that
says,
thanks
for
the
men
and
women
of
the
24
fire
department
at
Charlotte,
County
EMS,
without
whom
this
picture
would
not
have
been
possible
from
the
feminine
care
inertia.
There's
like
you
saved
on
febri
11
2015
when
she
was
the
victim
of
a
hit-and-run
driver.
N
One
thing
about
that
picture,
which
you
see
is
no
some
elderly
grandparents
with
four
grandkids.
What
I
see
is
our
tax
dollars
at
work?
I
need
to
like
the
elected
officials
of
Punta
Gorda
and
the
city
staff
for
vigorously
supporting
the
kind
of
organization
of
first
responders
that
we
have
in
this
city.
A
F
Mayor
and
council,
before
the
bicycle
association
annually,
recognizes
people,
agencies
and
organizations
from
around
the
state
for
their
contributions
to
build
a
bicycle-friendly,
Florida
icicle
friendly
sounds
easy
enough,
but
there
is
a
criteria
that
the
League
of
American
Bicyclists
used
to
gauge
that
friendliness,
it's
known
as
the
client
needs
education,
enforcement
valuation,
engineering
and
encouragement
or
admit
ago,
has
been
involved
in
this
community
as
a
cyclist,
but
also
has
touched
upon
those
five
days
to
make
them
taborda
a
bicycle
friendly
community.
He
has
worked
on
the
MPO
festival,
preiser
e
committee.
F
He
works
closely
with
the
Chief
of
Police
with
regards
to
enforcement,
not
only
for
motorists
but
for
bison
was
as
well.
He
is
currently
serving
on
the
team
punta
gorda
committee,
which
is
looking
to
receive
a
designation,
probably
american
bicyclists,
with
regards
to
be
in
a
bicycle
friendly
community
one
that
doesn't
get
talked
about
is
called
economics.
A
court
started
a
wings
and
wheels
wrong,
bringing.
F
Into
this
community,
all
of
anybody
near
rides
by
invading
Lodge
miles
and
30
he
get
hungry,
depended
from
out
of
town.
You
may
need
a
place
to
stay.
These
are
the
types
of
economic
dollars
that
cycling
to
bring
into
a
community
and
when
you
have
a
national
recognition,
believe
American
psyche
ilysm.
You
have
cyclists
from
across
the
nation
and
internationally
looking
for
places
to
ride
their
bike.
F
N
O
O
B
F
B
Second
we'd
like
to
say
so
here
they
are
our
wonderful
citizens.
Academy
2015
just
wanted
to
say
that
they
were
remarkable
group
and
I
know
that
they
all
thought
that
the
city
of
Punta
Gorda,
and
they
do
think
that
the
city
of
the
Florida
is
the
greatest
place
to
live
and
many
many
remarks
which
I
will
be
sharing
later.
On
of
how
many
of
somebody
of
the
different
plastics
that
they
participated
in
or
just
dynamite
and
I
know
that
there.
D
B
F
Q
If
you
haven't
been
to
the
citizens
academy-
and
let
me
tell
you
a
couple
of
things
that
you
might
want
to
know,
but
you'll
only
find
out
if
you
go,
why
is
it
that's
the
city
of
point?
Amor
de
only
has
one
registered
sex
offender.
What
it!
Why
is
it
at
a
wastewater
treatment
plant,
is
four
miles
outside
the
city
limits.
Q
Why
is
it
that
35
people
came
to
this
meeting
over
a
period
of
months
and
almost
always
left
with
a
big
smile
on
their
face,
because
they
learn
something
that
they
can
go
home
and
tell
their
spouse
or
their
kids
or
their
grandkids?
Why
this
is
such
a
wonderful?
Thank
you
again,
all
of
you
or
providing
this
opportunity
for
the
citizens
and
anyone
who
is
here
that
hasn't
been
the
citizen
cavity,
very
strong,
to
attempt.
A
We
will
first
have
citizens
comments
on
CRA
I
use
only
that
includes
the
minutes.

project

our
lease

with
the

or
the
ardent

our

of
a

and
also
request
for
additional
funding
for
a

railing
to
complete
our
lashley
part
of

renovation.
Scaring
one
who
wishes
to
speak
to
any
of
these
issues
all
right
be
covered
in
it,
show.
L
Arena
is
still
doing
quite
well.
You
see
all
the
permanent
slips
and
moorings
now
at
six
boats
in
the
morning
field,
which
is
more
than
we've
ever
had
before
our
community
room
still
isn't
getting
well
used,
and
we
now
have
we're
down
to
16
people
staying
in
on
their
boats
in
the
marina.
So
the
three
is
doing
really
well.

We've
done
some
improvements
to
our
ashley
park
area.
The
marina
building
painting
is
completed.
We
still
have
a
minor
league
that
we
think
now
we're
going
to
try
and
resolve
with
some
of
a
changing
of
some
of
the
floor
drains
outside
the
marina
building,
make
the
water
flow
out
towards
the
up
towards
the
water.
Instead
of
flowing
back
to
the
building.
We
think
that
might
solve
the
last
minor
league,
the
landscaping
we're
still
monitoring
some
of
the
palm
trees
and
some
of
the
other
trees
that
have
been
planted.
