Description
Regular City Council Meeting 2-2-2022
B
A
Good
morning
it's
nine
o'clock.
I
would
like
to
call
to
order
the
february
2
2022
city
council
meeting.
Let
the
record
reflect
that
all
city,
council,
members
and
city
officials
are
present
or
in
the
building.
If
you'd
please
stand
and
join
me
for
the
invocation,
followed
by
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
B
B
A
D
You
will
see
in
the
property
rights
element
that,
where
it
said
draft
on
it,
the
draft
is
going
and
it's
been
moved
for
final
approval.
So
this
was
actually
the
final
reading
of
that.
So,
okay,
I'm.
A
Not
sure
your
mike's
around
down
there
is
that
on.
Oh,
it
is
okay
all
right.
Thank
you.
Okay.
We
have
no
proclamations
or
presentations
this
morning,
so
at
this
time,
if
there
are
any
people
in
the
audience
that
would
like
to
address
counsel
on
any
matter,
you
can
come
to
the
podium
state,
your
name
for
the
record,
and
you
have
three
minutes.
E
E
Something
that
I'm
going
to
ask
the
city
of
punta
gorda
to
do
and
follow
the
lead
of
our
sister
and
brother
city
of
northport
and
file,
an
ordinance
banning
all
phosphate
mining
activities.
Just
like
charlotte
county
commissioners
did
and
following
our
sister
and
brother
county
of
desoto,
which
they
are
banning
stacks.
E
E
Then
we've
really
seen
the
influx
of
mosaics
influence
in
our
community
and
not
only
that
in
desoto
county,
for
instance,
I
went
to
the
thursday
january
27
2022
desoto
county
economic
advisory
meeting,
and
I
did
not
know
that
the
executive
director
of
the
chamber
of
commerce
was
there,
but
I
made
it
very
clear
that
it
sends
a
terrible
message,
desoto
chamber,
moving
into
the
mosaic
office
building
across
the
street.
Just
like
the
message
it
sends
when
the
children
see
the
mosaic
arena.
E
E
On
sunday
mosaic
placed
an
ad
full-page
ad
in
our
paper,
and
this
is
a
bunch
of
hogwash,
because
I
have
two
environmental
attorneys
that
dispel
this
at
the
last
phosphate
mining
meeting.
And
then
we
have
mayor
matthews
and
nice
article
right
here,
but
what
we've
got
is
we've
got
senator
ben
albritton's
bill
and
he
wants
to
have
the
farmers
be
able
to
self-regulate
what
their
fertilizer
use?
E
B
The
council
member
was
soliciting
a
criminal
charge
for
a
complaint
made
by
him
from
one
of
his
neighbors
and
asked
the
city
attorney.
If
there
was
anything
that
could
be
done
to
stop
this
protester
while
well-intentioned,
when
members
of
a
quasi-judicial
board
look
and
solicit
code
violations
and
then
find
and
punish,
said
violation,
it
creates
a
tyrannical
arm
of
government
without
recourse
a
prime
example
of
which
is
that
at
their
meeting
it
is
no
longer
allowed
to
have
a
citizen
comment
period
so
that
you
can
probably
address
your
concerns.
B
My
question
to
the
council
is:
will
public
comments
period
for
this
city
council
be
closed,
since
it
also
acts
as
a
judicial
board.
They
have
the
right
to
do
that
today,
you're
approving.
So
this
is
a
question
for
the
city
attorney
today:
you're
approving
a
twenty
seven
thousand
dollar
attorney
bill
for
what
you
spend
on
the
shoreline
lawsuit.
B
How
is
that
lawsuit
progressing,
and
if
we
can
get
a
comment
from
the
city
attorney
that
would
be
great
and
who
doesn't
love
dogs
but
to
spend
seven
thousand
dollars
a
year
and
four
thousand
dollars
in
cost
to
have
a
ptsd
dog
for
police
department?
Members
seems
a
little
woke
even
for
me,
and
then
what
are
the
police
doing
about
the
homeless
under
the
new
ordinance
for
sleeping
in
the
park?
Where
do
they
take
them
at
one
in
the
morning
when
they're
ticketing
them
and
finding
them
and
taking
them
out
of
the
park?
F
Good
morning
my
name
is
jerry
o'halloran,
and
I
want
to
talk
about
something
that's
occurred
recently
regarding
the
density
increasing,
and
one
of
my
first
concerns
was
that
it
would
never
appeared
at
the
airport
authority
board
and
they
were
wondering
why-
and
several
of
us
brought
it
to
your
attention
because
you
read
it
in
the
newspaper-
that's
a
concern
because
at
first
I
was
bothered
by
that.
But
then
I
thought
this
council
is
very
little
involvement
with
residential
encroachment
on
an
airport
and
the
county
has,
but
not
the
council
here.
F
So
it's
interesting
to
note
that
if
you
take
a
look
at
the
first
cover
page,
I
gave
you
it
shows
the
airport
there
and
it
shows
the
runway
going
to
the
north
of
the
brace
up.
I've
got
to
the
going
up
to
17.
about
seven.
Eight
years
ago,
development
bucky
mcqueen
was
going
to
develop
residential
there
and
we
spoke
to
the
county
commissioners
and
they
decided
that
in
with
input
from
us
that
that
would
cause
too
much
residential
complaints
because
of
noise.
F
So
they
stopped
it.
The
brace
there
is
the
same
exact
length
as
the
brace
from
the
primary
runway
that
goes
down
to
very
close
to
where
you're
developing
right
now
that's
exact
distance.
My
concern
is
timing.
I
love
developers.
I
think
they
do
some
great
things.
The
problem
you
run
into
is
that
the
things
that
they
do,
we
want
to
make
sure
it's
in
consonance
with
a
long-range
plan
that
you
have
for
our
area.
That's
important.
F
F
F
F
2006
was
the
last
airport
last
airline
that
flew
out
of
there,
that
was
delta
and
they
closed
in
the
second
sheet
of
paper.
I'm
showing
you
where
the
noise
sensitive
areas
are
it's
right,
adjusting
adjacent
to
where
you're
building
now
right.
Now
the
the
primary
runway
is
closed.
F
So
you're
not
going
to
have
any
noise
over
that
proposed
development
area.
So
right
now
you
turn
around
and
wait
too
late
to
develop
there
and
then
what's
going
to
happen
a
year
from
now,
you
have
a
lot
of
noise.
There.
People
are
going
to
start
complaining.
That
can
be
a
very
serious
problem,
something
that
you
need
to
address
today
to
make
sure
all
this
factors
in
with
the
airport
please
check
with
your
airport
authority
members.
A
Okay,
seeing
no
one
will
move
ahead
if
there's
anyone
in
the
audience
that
has
put
their
resume
in
to
apply
for
a
border
committee
seat.
If
you'd
like
to
introduce
yourself,
you
may
come
to
the
podium
and
you
have
three
minutes:
okay,
seeing
none!
We
will
adjourn
as
city
council
and
reconvene
as
community
redevelopment
agency.
A
Okay,
we
are
now
in
session
as
the
community
redevelopment
agency.
Let
the
record
reflect
that
all
commissioners
are
present
if
there
are
any
citizens
in
the
audience
that
would
like
to
address
the
commission
on
the
any
issues
before
us
today.
Please
come
to
the
podium
and
you
have
three
minutes
saying:
none
we'll
move
ahead.
The
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
approval
of
minutes
from
the
january
5th
meeting.
A
D
A
D
For
the
municipal
marina,
currently,
if
you
look
at
our
annual
rentals,
you
can
see
that
this
month
versus
last
year,
they're
down
a
little
bit
annual
activity.
But
if
you
look
at
annual
semiannual
monthly
and
transient,
add
them
all
up
and
they
generally
come
out
to
almost
the
same
number.
So
there's
monthly
is
essentially
the
same
as
well
as
a
semi-annual.
D
The
annual
fluctuates
somewhat
and
then
transients
have
basically
taken
up
the
difference,
so
we
still
have
a
lot
of
activity
at
the
marina.
Our
commercial
moorings
stay
consistent
at
14
and,
of
course,
on
the
mooring
ball
balls.
We
have
16
right
now
we're
last
year.
D
This
time
we
had
sex,
there's
also
a
lot
of
boots
out
of
gilchrist,
as
you
can
see
when
you
drive
down
reda,
so
a
lot
of
vessel
activity
in
the
waters
surrounding
the
city
in
the
city
limits,
and
you
can
see
with
our
pump
outs,
we
certainly
had
a
substantial
amount
again
and
in
a
more
condensed
area,
so
we
weren't
traveling
as
far
to
get
the
amount
of
waste
that
was
pumped
for
disposal.
D
That
could
be
because
some
are
getting
full
and
they're
emptying.
So
that
they're
ready
to
move
or
just
simply
because
the
cycle
played
out
in
that
everyone
seems
to
be
full
at
the
same
time,
for
whatever
reason,
if
you
actually
went
the
whole
way
to
the
end
of
the
month,
because
of
course
we
need
these
figures
early,
there
was
actually
about
3,
600
gallons
total,
which
is
substantial,
substantial
amount
that
we've
taken
out
to
help
protect
charlotte
harbor
in
our
environment.
H
D
We
have
signs
in
production
now,
there's
about
an
eight
week,
lead
time
and
we're
hoping
that
we
can
start
installation
in
march,
so
we're
still
trying
to
beat
the
november
deadline
before
he
said,
while
you're
on
the
board,
we
have
to
get
those
installed.
So
hopefully
you'll
see
that
start
moving
forward,
and
you
know
on
the
flip
side
of
that
they
are
very
nice
and
bright
and
it'll
be
an
improvement
when
they're
finished
historic
city,
hall,
rehab
and
expansion.
D
We
had
the
presentation,
of
course,
on
the
19th
and
the
architect
is
preparing
the
conceptual
design
plans.
What
we'll
end
up
seeing
is
basically
here's
the
plan
given
what
you've
seen
and
if,
for
some
reason,
we
need
to
look
at
funding
issues.
Here's
where
you
can
cut
back
and
not
do
everything
that
it
appears
needs
to
be
done
immediately.
So
that'll
be
up
for
discussion
when
we
get
all
these
plans
and
numbers
in
and
then
we
can
continue
to
move
forward
with
that
project.
D
Gilchrist
park
harbor,
we
will
have
a
pre-construction
meeting
on
the
25th,
so
once
we
get
through
that
meeting,
we
anticipate
beginning
in
early
march.
So
we
ought
to
see
some
construction
activities,
starting
especially
as
our
population
temporarily
decreases
out
of
season.
That'll
be
a
good
time
to
really
get
the
staging
and
some
of
the
initial
construction
work
done
so
that
we
can
start
working
on
that
and
see
that
final
phase
come
to
fruition.
D
We
basically
are
still
working
on
some
of
the
concept
plans:
architects
working
on
the
60
plans,
we're
waiting
to
here
on
our
500
000,
grant
that
hopefully
we'll
hear
in
june
whether
or
not
we
have
that
money,
then
we'll
have
to
have
some
discussion
on
the
ultimate
funding
mechanisms,
how
we
can
fund
it,
the
use
of
the
property
and
when
that's
going
to
occur,
we're
not
quite
there
yet.
But
it's
certainly
still
a
work
in
progress,
there's
by
no
means
finalized
as
to
how
the
total
project
will
be
funded
for
the
ultimate
use.
D
Lastly,
splash
pad.
We
of
course
brought
that
in
and
determined
the
mechanism
to
fund
the
project,
the
purchase
order
for
the
features
and
water
features
and
the
shade
structures
has
been
finalized.
Since
we
last
talked
about
the
project
that's
been
issued,
which
now
allows
us
to
get
the
engineering
specifications,
we
couldn't
get
those
until
we
actually
purchased
equipment,
they
wouldn't
provide
specifications
until
they
know
you're
buying
their
equipment,
and
we
need
those
specifications
to
add
to
our
bid
documents
so
that
we
don't
have
contractors
just
bidding
on.
D
You
know,
as
recommended
by
manufacturer,
where
they're
going
to
make
sure
their
price
covers
anything
the
manufacturer
may
recommend.
So
we
wanted
to
add
those
with
the
plans
and
we
should
have
those
really
any
time
now
we'll
get
that
out
for
proposals
and
then
we'll
be
able
to
determine
final
pricing
and
how
we
move
forward
with
construction
of
the
project.
D
Obviously,
as
you
look
at
it,
it's
going
to
be
a
very
nice
project
when
it's
complete
and
there'll
be
a
lot
to
do
in
the
lashley
park
side,
especially
family
amenities,
which
are
you
know,
with
the
dogs
and
the
splash
pads,
and
you
know
the
multiple
areas
the
park
itself.
It
will
be
a
very
nice
addition
to
the
park
in
the
city
and
that's
it
for
the
project
update.
I
I
have
one-
I
guess
joan's,
not
here.
Okay,
do
we
know
for
sure
that
the
wayfinding
signs
are
currently
accurate
when
we
ordered
them
nine
years
ago?
I
Do
we
know
for
sure
that
the
that
the
signage
is
gonna
be
up
to
date?
I'm
a
little
concerned.
D
Well,
there's
only
two
things
that
are
for
certain:
you
know
what
they
are
right.
One
of
those
is
not
wayfinding,
but
mitchell
can
answer
that
because
there's
been
several
iterations.
E
E
So
for
the
record
mitchell
austin
urban
design,
the
the
contractor,
has
to
provide
proofs
before
they
started.
Production
staff
has
verified
that
all
those
messages
on
the
proofs
were
correct
and
accurate.
I
A
Any
other
questions
very
good.
All
right,
commissioner
comments,
mr
dreiberg.
G
Yeah,
I
do
have
something
I'm
in
possession
of
some
knowledge
that
the
county
has
some
leftover
funds
from
past
one
cent
sales
tax
projects,
and
I
would
like
to
ask
them
for
at
the
minimum
100
000
to
go
toward
the
splash
pad
offset
the
cost.
But
I
don't
want
to
do
that
without
approval
from
this.
This
body.
G
We're
we're
up
against
harbor
of
boulevard
because
you
know
they're
going
to
they're
wanting
to
widen
it
and
some
that
money's
going
to
use
for
that.
But
hey.
I
think
I
got
a
50
50
shot
again
and
I'm
going
to
try
anyways.
But
if
you
give
me
the
okay,
I
don't
have
a
problem.
G
I
G
All
right,
the
other
thing
too,
is
that
the
state
of
this
city
speech
the
other
day
when
our
mayor
did
an
outstanding
job.
G
I
was
sitting
with
joe
surio
and
who
owns
four
points,
and
he
is
upset
that
whenever
they
have
major
events
at
the
event
center,
they
block
off
public
access
to
go
through
the
the
side
of
the
event
center
to
the
the
harbor
walk
and
they
end
up
then
coming
around
and
all
of
it
going
through
his
property
and
parking
in
his
space,
and
I
said
he
he
wants
to
know,
and
I'm
going
to
bring
that
up
today
at
the
parks
and
rec
speeding.
G
If
we
can
build
a
sidewalk
that
would
go
between
the
charlevoix
and
the
event
center
that
that
people
will
be
able
to
walk
back
through
to
the
harbor
walk.
So
we're
going
to
try
to
see
if
we
can
make
that
happen
because
at
the
same
time
there's
a
design
flaw
in
the
event
center,
and
that
is
when
it
rains
there's
no
way
for
you
to
get
out
of
your
car
and
get
into
the
event
center
without
getting
wet.
G
And
as
a
man.
I
hear
my
wife
complain
about
that
on
a
pretty
regular
basis
during
the
summertime.
We
go
there
on
an
event,
so
they're
going
to
redo
that
so
that
you
can
go
around
that
park
area
get
out
of
the
car
and
go
into
the
event
center
without
getting
wet.
So
maybe
at
the
same
time
we
can
do
that.
Sidewalk.
D
Agree-
and
let
me
say
two
things
about
that,
because
we
actually
met
with
him
a
while
back
and
talked
about
that
very
thing:
the
easement
that,
of
course,
we
hear
the
way
dan
taylor.
There
was
a
original
easement
for
that,
and
we've
been
reviewing
that
once
we
have
final
review
on
that
and,
of
course,
we'll
be
talking
to
the
attorney
about
it,
we'll
determine
two
things:
one:
can
we
construct
something
like
you're
talking
about,
which
would
be
nice
and
two?
D
Is
it
able
to
be
completely
blocked
off
the
way
that
it
currently
is
when
events
occur?
Of
course,
much
of
the
traffic
that's
going
back
through.
There
is
going
back
around
from
the
parking
lot
to
the
tiki
hut,
so
we
don't
want.
You
know
that
traffic
can
go
either
way
and
still
spend
money
at
the
tiki
hut,
which
is
a.
G
D
A
They
also
had
someone
blocking
off
the
parking
lot
for
the
event
center
on
saturday,
while
the
chili
fest
was
going
on,
because
apparently
they
were
getting
things
set
up
for
the
care
ball
on
saturday
night,
so
nobody
was
allowed
to
park
in
that
in
that
parking
lot
during
the
day,
which
was
a
big
problem
because
there
was
a
huge
amount
of
traffic
downtown.
I
went
debbie
and
I
both
were
downtown
saturday
to
meet
someone
for
lunch
and
trying
to
find
a
parking
spot
was
a
real
premium.
At
that
point,.
G
And
it's
671
at
the
at
the
care
ball
saturday.
Is
that
a
lot
of
people
yeah.
A
D
We
were
also
looking
at
signage
that
when
we
do
determine
what
can
be
done
there,
some
type
of
directional
signage,
not
specifically
a
wayfinding
sign
like
we
have
here,
but
that
says
harbor
walk
and
has
a
directional
area
that
keeps
people
out
of
the
charlevoix
and
make
sure
they
know
that.
That
is
the
access.
D
And
you
know
you
could
say:
tiki
hut,
harbor,
walk,
etc,
so
that
people
know
that
that's
the
way
to
go
if
you're
coming
from
in
town
back
and
forth,
because
that's
a
well-traveled
corridor
of
taylor
and
that
would
give
people
more
of
a
idea
of
where
to
go
and
when,
as
long
as
we
know,
it's
not
going
to
be
closed
off
once
people
design
up
tonight.
D
A
A
C
This
is
the
second
reading
of
an
ordinance
which
I'll
read
by
title.
Only
an
ordinance
of
the
city
of
punta
gorda
florida,
adopting
an
amendment
to
the
city
of
punta
gorda,
comprehensive
plan
2040
for
the
purpose
of
creating
the
property
rights
element,
including
the
goal,
objectives
and
policies,
as
required
by
state
statute
providing
for
conflicts
and
severability
and
providing
effective
data.
A
Anybody
speaking
this
is
a
second
reading,
but
we
do
have
to
open
up
the
public
hearing.
Is
there
any
staff
report
for
anything
on
this.
E
Yes,
sorry
trying
to
get
our
technical
issue
completed,
but
I
apologize
for
the
record
mitchell
austin
urban
design,
so
cpo4
2021
is
the
property
rights
element.
E
It
is
required
by
florida
statute
becoming
law
on
june
29th
of
last
year,
city
staff
drafted
a
property
rights
element
and
found
it
to
be.
E
The
planning
commission
heard
this
in
november
and
city
council
in
december,
with
transmittal
to
florida
department
of
economic
opportunity,
the
florida
department
of
economic
opportunity
fdeo,
commented
and
made
some
recommendations
for
mining
some
requiring
some
minor
language
modifications
to
clarify
the
goal
of
the
element
staff,
revise
those
the
text
of
the
document
to
reflect
those
recommendations
and
city
staff
now
finds
that
the
proposed
cpo
for
2021
is
consistent
with
the
city
of
punawara,
comprehensive
plan
and
florida
statutory
requirements
and
recommends
approval
of
such.
I
C
You
may
recall
a
while
back
when
jerry
paul
made
a
presentation
to
us
about
how
certain
things
get
passed
in
the
legislature
and
a
lot
of
times,
there's
like
some
outlying
community.
That's
doing
something
totally
wrong
or
whatever,
and
so
the
legislature
decides
to
preempt
the
field
or
whatever,
to
address
that
one
outlying
problem
that
ultimately
affects
everybody
in
the
state.
C
We
have
always
been
bound
by
the
u.s
constitution
and
florida's
constitution
with
respect
to
the
protection
of
private
property
rights,
and
everything
that
we
do
is
is
consistent
with
what
what
is
required
under
the
statute
under
the
constitution,
as
it
relates
to
private
property
rights,
for
whatever
reason
the
legislature
decided
that
we
needed
to
reinforce
the
understanding
that
we
do
things
to
to
protect
and
in
the
protection
of
private
property
rights.
This
amendment,
this
to
our
comprehensive
plan,
is
totally
unnecessary,
but
of
course
the
legislature
has
required.
C
Not
only
do
we
have
to
adopt
the
amendment,
but
also
to
not
adopt
any
any
additional
comprehensive
plan
amendments
until
such
time
as
we
include
the
property
rights
element
into
our
comprehensive
plan.
So
that's
what
it's
doing
it
just
it
just
reinforces
what
everyone
has
been
required
to
do:
consistent
with
federal
and
state
constitutional
law,
and
here
we
are.
I
I
asked
because
I
had
some
phone
calls
after
that
article
appeared
in
the
paper.
Excuse
me
some
of
the
people
didn't
read
down
to
the
fourth
and
fifth
column
where
basically
they
quoted
you
saying
that
and
they
wanted
to
know
what
had
we
been
doing
with
property
rights.
You
know
give
me
an
example
of
what
violations
you've
made
and
I
tried
to
explain
that
to
them,
but
I
wanted
it
on
the
record
from
a
council
meeting
that
this
is
still
the
case,
that
we
are
not
getting
property
rights
back.
They've
always
been
here.
D
A
Any
other
questions.
Okay,
thank
you.
This
is
a
public
hearing.
Does
anyone
wish
to
address
the
council
on
this
issue?
A
Second
call:
does
anyone
wish
to
address
counsel
on
this
issue?
Last
call
anyone
wish
to
address
counsel
on
this
issue
motion
to
close
public
hearing.
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
close
the
public
hearing.
All
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye,
aye
aye
opposed
motion
carries
unanimously.
A
C
A
C
A
A
C
Yes
and
this
resolution
you
may
have
received
an
updated
version
of
the
form
of
this
resolution.
The
body
didn't
precisely
match
the
title,
which
doesn't
it's
more
of
a
so
I'm
sorry
more
of
a
substantive,
rather
procedural
rather
than
substantive
matter.
C
D
K
Chris
and
simeone
finance
director,
so
we
had
previously
brought
all
the
other
funds
for
reappropriations
back
in
january
and
then
the
it
and
coastal
and
heartland
national
estuary
partnership
were
delayed
pending
some
final
invoicing
and
review.
K
So
we
have
the
reappropriations
for
both
those
funds
and
we
have
an
appropriation
for
the
general
fund
and
that
is
new
revenue
from
insurance
proceeds
for
the
replacement
of
a
police
vehicle
that
was
in
an
accident.
So
we're
appropriating
the
revenue
as
well
as
the
expenditure.
On
that
any
questions.
H
Good
morning,
thank
you
for
having
us
here
today
and
jennifer
hecker
for
the
record
executive
director
of
the
coast
on
heartland
national
estuary
partnership,
the
city
we're
very
pleased
to
have
as
a
member
of
the
partnership
and
also
as
our
fiscal
host
of
the
organization.
We
are
primarily
funded
by
the
u.s
epa
with
federal
funds.
We
do
also
receive
some
funding
from
the
state
from
dep
and
the
water
management
districts,
as
well
as
from
local
governments.
H
So
I
know
that
some
of
the
city
council
persons
have
attended
our
meetings
and
are
aware
of
that
and
again
like
we
are
very
careful
to
be
very
frugal
and
aware
of
you
know
how
to
steward
the
funds
we
receive
very
efficiently,
but
this
is
necessary
for
the
nature
of
our
work
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
You
have
any
questions.
I
Okay
mayor,
if
I
might
add
to
what
jennifer
is
saying,
not
only
do
some
of
our
meetings
go
a
long
time,
but
a
lot
of
our
members
come
from
quite
a
distance
and
we
generally
have
something
on
the
line
of
breakfast.
Some
sort
of
a
breakfast
get
goer
and
then
lunch
because
frequently
we're
there
until
two
o'clock,
and
it
makes
for
a
really
long
time.
If
you
don't
get
refreshments
so
and
when
our
board
is
not
small
and
I'm
sure
that
there
are
others
that
are
probably
of
the
same
size.
A
A
J
K
On
the,
even
even
for
it,
there's
some
new
projects
that
are
they're
also
under
the
appropriation
side,
it's
still
from
remaining
funds
from
the
prior
year
budget.
K
B
Good
morning
brad
judy
I.t
manager,
some
of
it
goes
back
to
covet
issues.
I
mean
it
was
impacted
by
covet
our
ability
to
work
on
some
of
the
projects.
Some
of
our
projects
were
delayed
and
in
in
projects
that
we
were
working
on
being
delayed,
we
never
were
able
to
get
to
projects
that
we
had
planned
for
later
in
the
year.
B
Some
of
this
is
adapting
to
one
project
was
kind
of
was
a
determining
factor,
and
do
we
want
to
go
this
way
or
do
we
want
to
go
that
way,
and
we
had
to
wait
for
that
project
to
finish
before
we
could
could
continue.
We
had
hoped,
and
our
plans
said
that
we
would
be
able
to
do
it
in
within
the
confines
of
the
fiscal
year
and
it
just
it
didn't
work
out
that
way.
B
So,
in
the
past,
when
we've
had
projects
like
that,
we
we've
we've
been
able
to,
and
and
that's
what
we're
trying
to
do
again
this
year
we
know
we
we
need
to
accomplish
them.
We
know
we
can
get
them
accomplished
that
just
the
time
frame
moved
a
little
beyond
the
fiscal
year
boundary.
D
A
A
H
H
And,
thank
goodness
I
get
to
rely
on
mr
david
myers
from
our
public
works
department.
Him
and
albert
sanchez
do
a
fantastic
job
with
the
maintenance
of
traffic,
and
I
have
to
also
give
credit
to
our
police
department.
Captain
nara
works
very
very
closely
with
the
event
applicant
and
getting
it
so
they're
going
across
the
bridge
going
under
coming
back
yeah,
it's
gonna
be
a
good
run.
Okay,
gonna
be
a
good
run.
H
We're
not
closing
they
don't
close
the
harbor
walk
at
all.
They
will
utilize
the
harbor
walk.
What
will
the
fdot
permit
is
to
close
one
lane
on
41.
J
H
A
M
I
had
a
comment,
not
necessarily
with
the
marathon
but
again
kind
of
looking
into
how
permits
are
working
and
how
things
are
staffed
when
an
event
comes
in
the
people
are
in
charge
of
paying
for
any
police
or
ems
that
have
to
be
there
correct.
That
is
correct.
How
and
I
was
kind
of
looking
through
to
try
to
find
what
that
rate
is
per
hour
compared
to
you
know
what
other
cities
may
charge
that
rate.
M
H
Can't
the
the
rates
that
are
by
police
and
fire
are
their
rates.
I
don't
urban
design
or
zoning.
We
don't
have
any
say
so
on
what
the
rates
are.
I
think
it's
by
their
contract
on
what
they
have
to
charge
per
hour.
I
can
defer
that
to
our
police
department.
D
Kristen
can
answer
some
of
that
too,
if
she's
listening
behind,
because
we're
right
actually
in
the
process
of
increasing
our
rate
for
that
very
purpose.
The
overtime
versus
the
contract
rate
that
we
require
for
people
to
service.
K
H
D
That's
a
good
question
because
we're
right
in
the
last
month
or
so
we've
been
doing
exactly
that
looking
at
those
rates,
because
it
has
to
be
worth
doing
also
we're
requiring
people
to
be
there
requiring
them
to
have
people
to
manage
these
events,
in
certain
circumstances
that
we
had
to
make
sure
that
we're
paying
people
to
actually
be
at
the.
D
M
A
Okay,
we
need
a
motion
making
motion
for
approval.
This
event
permit.
Second,
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve
the
event
permit
21-166-336
any
further
discussion.
All
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
motion
carries
unanimously.
Next,
we
have
the
punta
gorda
police
department,
therapy
dog
program.
N
N
I
would
definitely
be
happy,
I'm
so
glad
you
brought
that
up
so
very
timely,
because
we
said
the
same
exact
thing
that
that
we're
not
competitive
at
all
and
we're
the
hub
of
charlotte
county.
We
have
all
the
events
here.
We
should
be
at
least
making
as
much
as
they
are
numbers
too
yeah.
So
so
we
will
definitely
get
back
to
you
guys
with
with
what
we
find
out.
So
we
wanted
to
bring
something
forward
to
you
and
I'm
going
to
start
this.
I
made
this
really
quickly.
N
Thank
you
so
about
a
month
ago,
we
received
a
pretty
substantial
donation
from
a
couple
who
lives
here
in
the
city
and
they
really
wanted
to
see
us
increase
our
canine
program
and
we
take
a
look
at
kind
of
evaluating
our
needs.
What
is
what
does
the
department
need?
What
does
the
city
need
and
we
really
thought
a
therapy.
Canine
dog
would
be
a
great
addition
to
our
to
our
k-9
program,
because
there's
agencies
throughout
the
country
that
are
already
doing
this,
including
my
old
department
in
anne
arundel
county
and
it's
been
successful.
N
It's
something
they
can
use
for
different
purposes
and
then
I'll
go
over
some
of
those
purposes.
But
so
we
did
some
research
here
in
the
state
and
brevard
county
has
a
free
program
called
pauls
and
stripes,
and
they
will
train.
Basically
they
get
the
canine
they
rescue
the
dog.
They
then
have
the
inmates
for
do
a
12-week
training
program
so
they're.
Also
using
you
know
female
inmates
who
are
doing
the
training,
so
it's
great
for
them
and
then,
when
that's
done,
they
do
a
40-hour
training
for
the
handler.
N
So
we
would
send
a
handler
to
their
program
for
40
hours
and
they'll
learn
how
to
to
work
with
the
canine
so
and
all
that's
free.
So
what
you
can
use
them
for
is
a
bunch
of
different
reasons
but
interviewing
children.
Obviously,
if
we
have
a
child,
that's
a
victim
or
a
witness.
You
know
it's
very
stressful,
there's
a
lot
of
anxiety
having
the
dog
there
for
them
to
comfort
them
would
be
fantastic.
So
that's
one
of
our
uses
we're
talking
about
our
vcat
team.
N
N
If
there's
a
critical
incident
in
our
community,
we
can
take
the
dog
and
you
know,
be
able
to
interview
people
talk
to
them
and
just
kind
of
calm
things
down
and
de-stress,
as
well
as
attend
community
events
and
then
finally,
employee
morale-
and
I
showed
this
picture
because
if
you
can
look
at
these
two
cops
who
are
smiling
just
because
they
rescued
some
ducks,
you
can
imagine
what
what
it
would
be
like.
If
you
know
we
had
a
dog
that
we
could
take
around
and
I'll.
Just
give
you
a
real
fast
example.
N
N
So
we
think
we
could
take
the
the
dog
around
to
all
the
departments
in
the
city
just
give
employees
a
quick
chance
to
to
de-stress
and
and
just
an
immediate
morale
booster
as
well
as
if
we
maybe
one
of
our
employees,
is
having
a
rough
day
or
has
had
some
type
of
tragic
event
in
their
life.
We
can
bring
the
dog
over
and
just
let
them
hang
with
with
the
employees.
So
our
goal
is
to
put
it
in
community
service,
which
is
why
lieutenant
devault's
here
he's
he's
been
designated
the
handler.
N
If,
if
you
guys
approve
of
this,
what
the
donation's
going
to
do
is
it'll
cover
all
that
first
year,
expenses
it'll
cover
the
the
equipment,
that's
going
to
go
in
the
car,
the
equipment
for
the
dog,
the
equipment
for
the
handlers
home
and
all
the
different
care
and
maintenance,
food
and
vet
bills,
and
then
we
wouldn't
have
to
even
start
putting
it
in
the
budget
until
until
20
the
fy23
budget.
If
you
guys,
would
want
to
consider
approving
that.
N
J
Yeah,
I
just
wanted
to
reiterate
that
last
part,
because
that
is,
I
had
surprisingly
comments,
citizen
comments
about
this.
There
were
comments
about
this
today
and
I
was
kind
of
shocked,
but
all
of
these
costs
on
here
are
with
the
exception.
The
7
500
are
kind
of
one
time
cost
yes,
and
they
are
all
covered
by
this
private
funding,
including.
N
N
J
N
That's
why
I
kind
of
threw
that
picture,
so
this
is
canine
sadie
and
officer
berger,
and
if
you
see
the
gentleman
in
the
background
they
raised
money
to
to
buy
canine
cedia
vest-
and
I
think
some
of
you
actually
attended
this
and
the
just
the
the
amount
of
love
that
that
people
have
for
these
animals
and
they
just
want
to
be
around
them
all
the
time
we
do.
Canine,
demos
and-
and
everybody
wants
to
come
pet,
the
dog-
and
it's
just
it's
just
great
community
outreach.
N
I
can't
say
enough
and
we're
getting
ready
to
go
to.
Is
it
river
gulf
view
one
of
the
yeah
an
rv
resort
where
they
they
want
to
donate
money?
And
you
know
we're
going
to
take
the
dog
over
there.
So
it's
just
that
people,
love
dogs,.
D
And
this
this
also
can
be
used.
I
mean
to
expand
on
that
in
the
assisted
living
communities
when
we're
doing
veterans.
D
J
N
I
don't
know
about
the
salary,
because
it's
a
salary
thing,
I'm
not
positive
about
the
grants,
because
when
it
comes
to
care
and
maintenance
and
things
like
that,
that's
a
a
stipend
for
the
handler,
and
that
is
that's
a
normal
thing.
That
was,
I
used
to
get
it
when
I
was
a
k-9
handler
because
you're
caring
for
the
dog
on
a
daily
basis.
So
I
don't
know
about
grants
per
se,
but
the
charlotte
community
foundation
is
always
really
really
good
with
finding
money
as
well.
N
I
Well,
I
would
like
to
put
a
different
spin
on
this,
and
that
is
that
I'm
aware
of
a
high
school
that
has
a
dedicated
therapy
dog,
their
suicide
rate
went
down
appreciably
after
the
dog
showed
up,
and
I
don't
think
anybody
in
this
room
wants
to
equate
the
life
of
a
child
with
seven
thousand
dollars
in
vet
bills
for
a
dog.
I'm
all
for
this.
Thank
you
so
much
for
bringing
it.
I
think
you're
going
to
see
a
tremendous
difference
in
the
way
our
veterans
react.
Thank
you.
B
Yeah
speaking
to
this
there's
there's
a
foundation
called
rescue22
and
they
actually
provide
dogs
to
veterans
because
veterans
affairs
is
going
to
cover
it
and
they.
B
N
D
D
Committee
services,
just
for
the
record
you're
exactly
right:
it's
when
chief
davis
brought
this
up.
She
she
wanted
to
have
it
available
to
the
department
to
city
employees
and,
as
most
of
you.
J
See
me
at
most
of
the
community
events
anyway,.
B
A
M
A
A
A
Second,
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve
the
dog
therapy
program,
any
further
discussion,
all
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye.
I
N
N
I
A
A
D
The
wrong
presentation:
it's
the
wrong
one,
yeah
yeah
she's
working
on
it
just
to
start
this
off.
Obviously
this
has
been
discussed
previously.
There
were
some
concepts
that
came
in
and
the
painting's
been
done.
There's
been
a
lot
of
lettering,
new
signage
out
front,
and
this
is
a
culmination
of
a
lot
of
work
for
the
mural
section
that
will
be
done
to
complement
the
area
and
really
enhance
the
look
of
the
building
and,
what's
going
to
be
seen,
there.
B
Great
good
morning,
kelly
gaylord
pontegorta,
historic
mural
society,
so
that
we're
looking
at
our
next
project,
which
is
the
history
of
the
boat
club,
and
it
would
be
our
32nd
mural
here
in
town
and
it
will
capture
the
70
plus
year
history
of
the
boat
club,
which
was
started
way
back
in
the
760s
and
70s
to
as
a
way
to
get
the
regattas
and
boat
races
to
come
here.
They
had
to
have
a
boat
club
to
sponsor
that
it
will
be
presented
on
three
panels
across
the
front
of
the
boat
club.
B
Approximately
ten
by
five,
each
panel
of
the
first
panel
will
depict
the
beginning
of
the
club.
The
hydroplane
races
that
came
were
very
popular
at
the
time,
along
with
john
rose,
who
was
the
spark
plug
who
birthed
the
boat
club
and
as
the
regattas
that
happened.
So
we're
excited
about
that
one,
and
you
see,
the
original
boat
club
house
was
very
different
than
what
it
is
today.
B
The
second
panel
talks
about
this
set
the
80s
and
90s
and
features
the
enlarged
club
which
had
two
additions
made
to
it,
as
well
as
the
sailing
regattas
that
started
in
overnight.
Cruising
as
well,
and
then
they
started
doing
this
sunflower
raft
ups
that
were
very
popular
at
the
time
and
the
third
panel
is
the
activities
from
the
about
2000
to
present
time,
including
our
cardboard
boat,
races,
which
they
always
had
a
entry
in
that
overnight
sailing
and
power
boating
and,
of
course,
the
addition
of
kayaking.
B
A
I
have
a
couple
questions
on
this
rendering
here.
What
are
they
going
to
do
in
terms
of
the
name
of
the
club
is?
Is
that
going
to
be
painted
on
the
building,
or
is
it
going
to
be
raised
letters
or
do
we
know?
I
believe.
E
Now,
yeah
for
the
record
mitchell
austin
urban
design,
so
the
the
previous
at
a
previous
council
meeting
the
boat
club
brought
forward
exterior
improvements,
including
a
proposal
for
signage
and
the
pergola
little
entry
waiting
area
exterior.
So
those
two
improvements,
this
the
sign
has
already
been
installed
and
the
pergola
structure
is
under
construction
currently,
so
the
the
mural
proposal
is
only
the
three
panels
that
were
discussed.
A
D
E
So
the
there's
a
little
inset
area
right
there,
you
know
and
they're
bringing
forward,
so
this
pergola
is
in
line
with
the
front
facade
of
the
building.
E
I
A
A
D
B
Oh
sorry,
yes,
it's
very
nice.
Yes,
so
keith
goodson
who's
painted
our
most
our
three
most
recent
ones
we'll
be
painting
these
and
they
will
be
done
on
we're
installing
aluminum
panels
like
we've
done
before,
and
then
he's
painting
it
on
mural
cloth
in
his
studio
and
then
we're
applying
it
to
the
panels
installing
what
it
your
other
question,
I.
B
The
concept
came:
I
worked
with
a
committee
subcommittee
of
the
boat
club.
They
have
extensive
history,
lots
of
photos,
lots
of
scrapbooks,
so
they
will
be
able
to
bring
all
that
to
us,
along
with
the
punta
gorda
history
center.
B
The
mural
cloth
has
really
been
helpful
to
us.
We
can
paint
year-round,
it's
less
expensive
because
the
artist
can
do
it
in
their
studio
and
then
we
apply
it.
So
we
recently
just
did
two
and
it
worked
out
really.
Well,
I'm
excited
about
that
very
nice.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
L
L
So
the
american
with
disability
acts
basically
says
that
no
entity
shall
discriminate
against
individuals
with
disabilities
in
conjunction
with
the
provisions
of
public
service.
So
that
is
the
premise
of
the
ada.
In
general,
there
are
many
different
sections
of
the
ada.
L
What
we're
specifically
dealing
with
today
is
the
ada
transition
plan.
There
is
ada
requirements
when
it
comes
to
building
there's
ada
requirements
when
it
comes
to
hiring
and
those
types
of
things.
So
the
american
disability
act
is
a
broader
umbrella,
we're
just
going
to
drill
down
a
little
bit
more
into
it.
L
So
in
this
particular
section
we
are
dealing
with
title
ii,
which
is
public
entities.
The
other
titles
again
are
all
different
types
of
of
the
ada,
but
again
for
this
purposes,
it's
only
title
ii
that
we're
talking
about
here
and
what
title
ii
of
the
ada
says.
If
you
are
a
state
or
local
government-
and
you
have
more
than
50
employees-
that
by
july
26
1992,
you
must
have
an
ada
transition
plan,
the
transition
plan
has
to
have
four
components
to
it.
L
The
ada
transition
plan
is
supposed
to
be
a
live-in
document,
as
the
ada
changes
as
the
environment
changed
different
things
in
our
environment
change.
So
it
is
something
that
needs
to
be
continuously
updated
and
worked
some
more
requirements
of
title
ii
again
as
a
self-evaluation.
That's
the
first
step
in
developing
an
ada
transition
plan.
Then
you
actually
have
an
ada
transition
plan
identifying
an
ada
coordinator.
L
L
As
previously
stated,
everybody
was
supposed
to
have
an
ada
transition
plan
in
1992.
But
if
you
asked
at
that
point,
they
were
probably
zero
to
none.
That
actually
did.
It
wasn't
until
probably
around
2014-1516
that
fdot,
which
is
a
federal
highway,
as
well
as
other
state
and
federal
government
funds,
kind
of
brought
in
and
said
this
needs
to
get
done.
If
you
want
to
qualify
to
continue
to
receive
federal
funds,
so
it
was
a
way
for
them
to
in
essence,
mandate
what
should
have
been
done
in
1992..
L
So
in
2016
the
city
conducted
its
first
self-evaluation
2017.
We
actually
adopted
the
transition
plan
and
created
our
forms
of
processes
and
procedures
and
then,
through
the
next
three
years,
leading
up
to
2020.
We
have
started
to
work
that
ada
transition
plan,
so
as
of
september
30th
2021,
which
would
have
been
the
end
of
fiscal
year
2021..
L
L
When
we
did
the
self-evaluation,
there
was
a
list
of
city
facilities
that
were
given
to
a
consultant
to
go
in
and
identify
all
of
the
areas
that
needed
to
be
improved
and
those
then
created
those
individual
line
items
so
again,
when
the
inventory
was
done
on
that
particular
day
in
that
particular
building
or
in
that
particular
part,
those
are
the
items
that
were
there
so
again
we're
working
on
items
that
started
in
2016..
L
L
So
then,
if
you
look
at
this,
you
see
the
list
of
items
that
were
evaluated.
What
you
won't
see
on
this
list.
You
won't
see
gilchrist
park
and
you
don't
see
ponce
park,
because
in
2016
we
had
capital
improvement
items
to
rehab
those
entire
parks,
so
they
weren't
part
of
the
initial
evaluation
due
to
them
being.
You
know
in
the
plans
to
get
redone
anyway.
So
that's
why
you
won't
see
them
in
this
particular
list
here.
L
In
addition,
back
in
2018,
we
adopted
a
right-of-way's
component
to
the
ada
transition
plan
and
the
policy
said
that
whatever
public
works,
redid
a
sidewalk
or
an
intersection,
they
would
ensure
that
that
sidewalk
and
intersection
met
the
current
ada
needs.
So
every
year,
public
works
does
a
handful
of
projects
that
they
do
their
sidewalk
improvements.
So
here's
a
list
of
the
ones
that
they've
done
this
year.
This
particular
these
particular
funds
are
not
out
of
the
ada
they're
out
of
the
sidewalk
in
public
works
accounts.
L
So
we
get
into
what
we
did
for
the
ada
transition
plan.
So
under
programs,
services,
programs
and
activities
in
you'll
see
in
the
blue
is
what
we're
pros
and
for
2022
and
the
black
is
what
we
had
completed
for
2021.
So
we
did
some
accessible
documents
related
to
budgets.
L
L
We
finished
very
late
or
early
2021,
the
lashley
park
ramp,
so
that
was
completed
as
part
of
this
plan.
Even
it
was
completed
just
around
the
end
of
last
fiscal
year.
So
that's
why
you
see
it.
Here.
L
L
L
A
couple
projects
that
we
did
not
get
to
finish
in
fiscal
year
2021.
Unfortunately,
we
tried
to
do
as
much
of
the
design
work
in-house
in
order
to
save
funds,
but
with
limited
staff
between
urban
design,
public
works
and
procurement.
There
are
definitely
some
projects,
unfortunately,
just
could
not
get
scheduled
and
get
done
for
this
fiscal
year,
so
we
are
still
looking
to
do
an
accessible
entrance
into
this
public
safety
building.
L
We
are
still
looking
to
carry
out
our
interior
wayfinding
signage
through
fire
station
2
and
fire
station
3..
Another
item
that
we
had
on
the
the
plan
last
year
was
the
sidewalk
improvement
on
west
williams.
Street
finance
did
identify
some
funding
from
sidewalk
impact
fees
and
other
types
of
things,
so
we
were
able
to
reduce
the
budget
in
this
one.
L
So
we
take
these
funds
here
and
we
kind
of
moved
them
over
to
give
us
what
are
we,
starting
with
this
fiscal
year,
for
funding
so
for
projects
on
that
first
line
direct
carryover
projects,
the
392
000?
This
is
projects
that
we
did
not
get
to
finish,
so
we
would
be
taking
all
of
those
funds
and
directly
rolling
them
over
into
the
exact
same
funds.
L
It's
just
transferring
from
fiscal
year
2021
into
fiscal
year
2022
to
get
those
done,
then
we
have
about
a
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars
of
reallocated
money,
and
what
that
is
is
anything
that
we
completed,
that
we
did
not
spend
the
entire
budget
and
or
that
money
william
street,
for
example
the
money
that
we
budgeted
for
that
that
we
now
know
we
can
use
an
additional
funding
source.
We
would
take
that
money
and
put
it
into
for
reallocation
to
additional
projects.
L
Then
we
always
have
some
tbd
money
from
every
year
in
case
things
come
in
over
budget
and
we
need
contingency
funds
or
if
something
comes
up.
That
is
an
immediate
need
for
an
accessibility
and
we
can't
find
funds
anywhere
else.
We
do
have
some
tbd
money
so
that
carries
over
as
well
and
then
each
new
funding
year
we
get
130
000
again
on
that
remember.
Five
thousand
dollars
of
it
is
for
the
project
management
as
part
of
the
new
sales
tax
projects
and
125
is
actually
what
goes
into
future
allocations.
L
So
here's
what
we
are
proposing
again
on
the
very
top,
the
ada
and
security.
We
don't
anticipate
any
more
funding
for
that,
so
that
is
a
direct
rollover.
We're
not
asking
for
any
more
funding
for
that
nature
park.
We
are
looking
to
put
75
000
into
that
account
from
this
fiscal
year
to
help
offset
the
construction.
We
should
have
design
plans
by
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year
and
hopefully
go
into
construction
next
year,
miscellaneous
facilities.
We
have
1804
in
that
and
again
we're
just
going
to
carry
that
over
those
are
so
for
some.
L
You
know
minor
issues
that
facilities
might
have
where
we
might
need
to
replace
a
sign
or
replace
a
door
handle
or
those
types
of
things.
We
have
the
interior
way
finding
in
the
public
safety
building
again
that
we're
moving
over
the
those
funds.
We
are
proposing
what
you
already
approved,
the
150
000
for
the
lashley
park
playground.
L
You
see
the
project
management
of
five
thousand
dollars
in
there
and
then
the
tbd
money.
So
that
brings
us
our
total
budget
for
668
473
for
this
fiscal
year.
J
You
have
a
question
sure
that
so
this
is
required
by
the
act.
I
mean
this
is
an
optional,
that
we
can
do
this
or
not
correct,
and
so
it
just
seems
to
me
when
I
was
looking
at
this
that
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
was
allocated
last
year
and
then
carried
over
to
this
year.
You
know
when
you
look
at
the
expenditures,
there's
far
more
being
carried
over
than
what
actually
got
done.
So
are
we
in
any
risk
of
falling
into
non-compliance
with
the
act,
because
we're
not
moving
fast
enough
on.
L
L
So
as
long
as
we
are
continuing
to
show
progress
and
address
the
immediate
needs
that
come
up,
then
we
are
working.
The
plan,
melissa.
M
Just
for
my
own
knowledge,
I
mean.
Obviously
this
is
a
huge
undertaking
when
you
go
back
to
slide
nine,
that
that
basically
shows
the
percentage
of
you
know
where
you're
at
how
do
you
even
begin
to
look
and
say?
Okay,
so
you
know
we
haven't
done
anything
at
virginia
avenue,
but
yet
we're
you
know
at
70
at
linear
park
like
how?
How
do
you,
what
prioritize,
I
guess,
yeah.
L
What
we
the
strategy
in
2016
and
2017
when
we
first
got
our
plan,
we
looked
at
in
that
first
year
in
20
2017.
What
had
to
be
done
immediately?
What
could
we
do
quickly?
L
As
we
continued
to
look
at
the
amount
of
funds,
we
would
have
to
spend
into
city
hall
kind
of
snowballed
into
the
need
for
the
for
the
rehabilitation
and
expansion
project.
But
then
it
was
what
buildings
do
people
use
the
most
so
city
hall,
annex
public
safety,
the
entrances,
then
we
looked
at.
You
know,
looking
at
more
of
parking,
lots
and
trails
and
those
types
of
things
that
the
majority
of
the
people
could
get
to
and
what
we
could
do
with
the
fundings
that
we
had
there's
some
of
these.
L
You
know
if
you,
if
you
look
at
the
parking
structure,
that
we
have
the
amount
of
cost
it
would
take
us
to
fix.
All
of
that.
It
really
is
a
separate
capital
improvement
project,
125
000
a
year.
We
would
never
get
it
done.
M
So
it
would
be
cause.
This
question
was
asked
to
me
so
it'd
be
safe
to
say
you
kind
of
look
based
on
public
usage
correct.
So
if
the
nature
park
is
a
question
was
proposed,
why
are
we
at
33
on
a
nature
park
but
we're
at
zero
percent
for
a
fire
station?
Yeah
public
usage
is
going
to
outweigh
for
ada
transition,
then
correct
yeah.
Thank
you.
Yep.
L
So
we're
looking
for
approval
to
allocate
the
fiscal
year
22
funding
and
then
approval
to
move
forward
with
the
formal
resolution
to
reit
to
re-adopt
the
ada
transition
plan
at
the
next
meeting.
I'll
move
to
approve.
A
Second,
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve
the
ada
transition
plan,
as
outlined
in
today's
presentation.
Any
further
discussion,
all
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
aye.
Thank
you
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you,
okay!
So
next
we
have
the
fy
2022
to
2026
long
range
financial
plan.
K
Good
morning
chris
and
simeone
finance
director,
this
long
range
financial
plan
will
kind
of
give
us
a
review
of
where
we
were
at
for
our
fiscal
year
22
budget
and
where
our
performas
led
us
to
fiscal
year,
2026
as
well
as
start
the
conversation
for
building
our
fiscal
year,
2023
budget.
K
So
we'll
start
with
the
fiscal
forecast
and
again
this
is
a
lot
of
just
review.
K
K
The
only
assumptions
that
will
change
will
also
be
noted
as
we
go
through
each
fund,
but
for
revenues.
We'll
start
with
ad
valorem,
there's
no
change
in
the
millage
rate
of
3.95
mills.
We
do
estimate
a
five
percent
increase
in
property
tax
revenue.
Other
revenues
are
anywhere
from
zero
to
three
percent
estimated
increases.
K
We
do
show
the
use
of
operating
reserves
to
enhance
personnel
and
service
levels
and
that's
basically
fiscal
year.
23
to
2026.
in
fiscal
year,
2022
we're
building
up
that
reserve
for
the
rest
of
the
fiscal
years.
Yes,.
J
Is
to
get
our
reserves
back
up
to
that
16.7
percent,
and
so
I
don't
need
you
to
sidetrack
and
explain
the
whole
thing
right
now.
But
as
you
go
through
this,
if
you
could
explain
how
that
using
the
reserves
today
relates
to
getting
us
to
that
16-7,
because
we
publicly
comment
on
that
many
times
and
I
think
it's
a
little
bit
confusing
when
people
see
wait
a
minute
we're
using
reserves.
Yet
we're
trying
to
get
to
this
number
so.
K
And
city
council
has
over
the
years,
has
recognized
the
need
for
having
that
dedicated
reserve.
K
However,
they
balance
that,
with
also
being
able
to
implement
the
items
that
are
needed
for
each
division
in
the
city,
so
in
some
cases,
as
we're
still
kind
of
recovering
from
the
economic
downturn
and
trying
to
add
in
staff
or
say,
I.t
editions,
those
things
still
need
to
be
funded,
so
they're
kind
of
walking
a
line
and
that's
why,
when
they
made
a
five
percent
minimum
reserve,
it
was
always
intended
that
gradually,
it
would
increase.
So
the
city
has
had
a
policy
of
using
reserves
to
balance
the
budget
for
these
types
of
situations.
D
D
But
then
we
also
have
a
fund
balance
amount
that
we're
not
putting
directly
to
that
dedicated
reserve
as
we
build
it
that
we're
using
to
offset
operating
expense,
moving
forward,
we're
taking
that
money
and
planning
the
use
of
that
until
we
can
work
our
way
long-term
out
of
the
use
of
reserves
so
that
we
have
current
revenue
funding
current
expenses.
D
A
K
Also,
we
have
the
build-up
and
use
of
capital,
outlay
reserves
and
the
five-year
plan
from
the
city's
annual
funding
policy,
and
that
was
the
policy
that
was
put
in
place
during
fiscal
year
15.
So
we
look
at
our
five-year
plan,
spread
it
out
so
that
you
don't
see
the
big
jumps
in
the
years
that
need
a
lot
of
capital
outlay
versus
a
year
that
might
not
have
as
much
so
it
smooths
it
out.
We
do
estimate
grant
revenue
fiscal
year
to
23-25
for
firefighter
personnel
increase.
M
K
I
would
say
a
combination
of
all
three
so
each
year
we
budget
10
and
what
happens
is
when
we
do
get
our
policy.
The
current
vendor,
that
has
our
policy,
does
our
general
liability
insurance
and
our
workers
compensation.
K
So
we
budget
a
five
percent
increase
on
the
general
liability
side
and
a
ten
percent
on
the
workers
compensation
side
and
what
occurs
every
year
or
two,
sometimes
it'll
kind
of
be
a
little
bit
more
heavy
on
the
liability
on
the
general
liability
side
and
a
little
bit
less
on
the
workers,
comp
side
and
other
other
times.
It
might
be
a
little
higher
on
the
workers
comp
side
a
little
lower
on
the
general
level,
so
it
generally
evens
out
between
the
two.
But
as
a
general
rule,
we've
been
using
ten
percent.
So.
D
And
our
general
well,
our
in
our
carrier,
actually
does
meet
with
our
safety
committee
through
our
hr
department.
They
provide
training
services,
they
do
evaluations
of
any
claims
we
may
have.
Is
there
anything
we
can
do
to
make
sure
we
minimize
any
claims,
keep
our
employees
safe.
So
we
go
through
that
exercise
routinely
also.
K
So
then,
on
the
operating
side,
we
did
just
talk
about
the
liability
insurance
at
five
percent
and
all
others
are
three
percent.
Except
for
election
expenses.
We
budget
forty
five
thousand
per
year
and
comprehensive
plan.
Studies
are
per
schedule
so
they're
in
some
years
and
not
in
other
years.
K
For
other
expenditures,
we
did
want
to
just
point
out
that
the
x
personnel
operating
and
capital
outlay
for
the
staffing
level
enhancements,
as
previously
presented
during
the
fiscal
year
22
budget
are
also
included
in
this
five-year.
Look.
K
K
So
this
is
what
the
pro
forma
looks
like,
and
so
the
performa
is
what
was
in
presented
in
the
budget
book.
The
one
item
that
was
updated,
though,
was
our
minimum
reserve
balance
based
on
our
last
council
meeting.
So
you
can
see
that
in
2022
we
started
with
202
million
667
000
and
that
was
10
plus
that
120
and
then,
with
the
new
policy
going
up
to
13.2
percent
for
fiscal
year
2023
and
then
all
the
way
to
14.7
percent
in
fiscal
year
2026..
So
we're
getting
a
lot
closer
to
that
minimum
balance.
A
Plus,
we
can
also
possibly
use
additional
reserve
carryover
money
in
the
future
to
get
it
faster.
K
Yeah,
that
is
correct,
and
I
do
just
want
to
point
out
on
the
line.
It's
the
third
line
down
use
of
prior
year's
reserves,
so
you
can
see
in
23
through
26
how
much
of
reserves
that
are
currently
budgeted
to
balance
the
budget.
Again,
we
continue
to
work
to
try
to
bring
that
down
each
year
and
as
we
go
through
the
budget,
we
will
continue
to
look
at
that.
D
For
example,
we
know
we
have
to
look
at
the
pro
forma
realistically
and
worst
case,
but
we
also
know
things
like
paying
off.
The
cra
will
drop
a
million
dollars
of
additional
money,
as
well
as
any
excess
that
we're
getting
from
incremental
increases
back
into
our
general
fund
revenue,
so
right
away
that
takes
that
way
down,
as
well
as
any
other
baseline
expenditures
and
revenues
that
exceed
our
well
expenditures
are
reduced
or
revenues
exceed
our
conservative
projections
in
the
pro
forma.
I
Kristin,
what's
the
45
000
under
year,
2025
under
use
of
capital
outlay
reserve?
Why
is
there
only
one
line.
K
K
The
new
the
capital
outlay
for
new
positions
is
also
included
on
that
line,
so
you
can't
see
it,
but
otherwise
you
would
have
seen
840
like
if
it
were
separated-
okay,
okay,
just
straight
across,
because
we
were
just
trying
to
show
that
we're
keeping
it
even
but
the
beginning
balance
was
45
000
in
fiscal
year
2022,
so
that
does
get
used
up
in
2025..
Okay,
thank
you.
D
K
K
So
we
look
at
our
minimum
reserve
analysis
so
again
for
fiscal
year
2022
we
started
with
10
percent
minimum
plus
that
120,
so
we
were
at
the
2
million
667
000
at
our
last
meeting,
so
that
should
have
said
2022
there.
I
apologize
we
added
six
hundred
and
forty
two
thousand
seven
hundred
and
twenty
five
dollars
and
then
the
use
of
reserves
to
increase
the
minimum.
To
thirteen
point
two:
that's
that
extra
point:
five
percent
is
three
hundred
seventy
six
thousand
five
hundred.
K
D
K
And
so
the
light
blue
line
disappears
and
that's
just
because
at
city
council
we've
dedicated
those
funds
to
use
over
the
five-year
plan,
so
we
needed
those
funds,
so
they're
not
really
available
for
additional
projects.
At
this
time.
K
D
K
And
then
again
just
showing
our
capital
outlay
reserve,
where
we're
going
to
start.
So
at
the
beginning
of
fiscal
year,
2023
we
plan
to
have
260
000
in
there,
with
the
840
being
added
for
fiscal
year,
23
less.
What
is
planned
to
be
used
for
capital
outlay
in
23
would
mean
at
the
end
of
that
fiscal
year
we
would
have
149
000.
for
the
full
five-year
plan
at
the
end
of
fiscal
year,
2026
we'll
have
177
000
in
that
reserve.
K
Any
questions
on
the
general
fund,
okay,
so
we're
going
to
move
into
the
cra
fund
and
again
we
estimate
tif
revenue
at
two
percent
increase
feral
court
center.
Lease
revenues
assumes
one
vacancy
and
city
use
of
the
prior
fgcu
units
through
fiscal
year,
2024
other
leases
and
loan
repayments
per
contracts.
K
On
the
expenditure
side,
the
debt
service
is
per
the
updated
loan
schedule.
Operating
expenditures
are
still
the
anywhere
from
zero
to
three
percent
herald
court
facilities.
Maintenance.
The
average
is
91
700
per
year,
that's
the
average,
so
it
does
fluctuate
per
year.
But
we
gave
you
the
average
there
lashley
park.
Amenities
is
60
000
annually.
K
So
again,
this
has
three
different
divisions,
so
you
see
three
different
divisions
and
where
each
fund
ends
up
at
and
because,
as
long
as
things
stay
good
over
the
next
few
years
in
the
debt
service
division,
we
expect
we'll
be
able
to
pay
that
off
early,
possibly
as
early
as
fiscal
year.
2025.
K
Going
on
to
the
utilities
funds
revenues,
we
have
the
estimated
two
percent
rate
increases
built
into
the
pro
forma
along
with
a
half
a
percent
growth
per
year.
K
On
the
expense
side,
they
do
have
a
50
000
per
year.
Contingency,
all
other
expenditures
are
the
same
as
a
general
fund
capital
outlay
plan,
this
fund
budgets
approximately
700
000
per
year.
K
K
The
sanitation
fund,
we
currently
estimate
a
35
cents
per
month
rate
increase
for
recycling,
there's
an
estimated
50
cents
to
a
dollar
25
per
month
rate
increase
for
refuse
to
yard
waste.
That's
throughout
the
five-year
plan
estimated
one
percent
growth
in
single
and
multi-family
revenues
on
the
expense
side.
Recycling
costs
are
estimated
to
increase
the
35
cents
per
monthly
unit
rate
capital.
Equipment
replacement
is
per
the
five
year
schedule
and
they
had
a
capital
outlay
reserve.
K
Puna
gorda
isles
canal
maintenance
fund
the
five
year
performer,
proposes
the
650
assessment
through
fiscal
year
2026,
the
rip
rap
mitigation
is
still
delayed.
We're
still
waiting
on
permitting
so
loan
proceeds
and
fema
state
reimbursements
would
be
pushed
out.
Seawall
replacement
reserves
used
for
special
projects
are
identified
in
the
five-year
plan.
K
The
estimated
cost
increase
is
three
percent
in
the
annual
sea
wall
replacement
program
and
again
that's
in
the
pro
forma
in
this
current
rate
environment.
I
just
want
to
point
out
that,
as
with
all
the
funds,
a
lot
of
them
are
experiencing,
supply
cost
increases
so
capital
outlay
and
special
projects,
and
we
just
talked
about
the
rip
rap.
The
channel
and
shoreline
improvements
to
the
spoils
site
and
the
ponce
de
leon,
inlet,
winding
and
dredging
are
on
hold.
J
Having
sat
on
that
committee
for
a
while,
I
would
just
point
out
that
we
are
not
replacing
the
sea
wall
at
a
rate.
That's
going
to
be
sustainable
in
terms
of
the
the
expected
life
of
the
wall,
that's
there.
In
other
words,
we
we
could
be
maybe
beyond
my
lifetime,
but
we
could
be
in
for
a
situation
where
we
have
we're
going
to
false
considerably
short
of,
and
especially
if
we
have
another
irma
type
incident
that
we
may
or
may
not
get
reimbursement
for.
So
just
so
we're
aware.
K
So
for
bsi
canal
maintenance,
it's
560
operating
assessment
rate
through
fiscal
year
2026
the
estimated
cost
increase
again
is
three
percent
for
the
sea
wall
replacement.
We
talked
about
rip
rep
and
for
both
funds
we
did
add
the
reserve
for
contingency
of
50
000
per
year.
So
I
apologize.
I
didn't
mention
that
on
the
last
fund
and
for
the
bsi
they're
special
projects,
they
have
two
special
projects
that
are
not
funded.
K
K
They
are
shown
here
at
the
bottom,
so
that
you
could
see
what
the
effect
would
be
if
they
were
added
into
the
plan
and
what
you
would
have
you
know
what
kind
of
rates
we'd
be
looking
at
if
we
had
to
cover
those.
K
K
K
M
K
K
They
were
working
four
days
a
week,
instead
of
five
days
a
week,
they
were
having
you
know
when
they
were
taking
that
cut
and
pay,
because
there
wasn't
enough
work
and
so,
but
you
still
had
expenses
for
those
personnel
and
we
had
to
cover
them
and
it
came
from
reserve.
So
they
used
to
have
a
pretty
good
balance
and
had
gone
down
way
down
and
now
we've
built
it
back
up.
K
So
the
six
cent
gas
tax
fund,
we
have
a
two
percent
estimated
increase
in
tax
revenue.
Contract
revenues
are
anywhere
from
one
to
three
percent
increase
on
the
expenditure
side:
everything's
three
percent
estimated
increase
except
for
street,
sweeping
sidewalk
replacement
and
storm
sewer,
which
is
held
flat.
K
On
the
additional
five
cent
gas
tax
fund
on
the
gas
taxes,
we
estimate
the
two
percent
increase
per
year.
The
a
steady
amount,
the
459
000
transfer
from
the
general
fund
and
the
paving
plan
is
anywhere
from
730
000
to
750
000
per
year.
K
And
there's
how
that
looks
this
one?
We
do
keep
a
very
minimal
reserve
which
does
help
like
in
times
when,
if
all
of
a
sudden
gas
prices
spike-
and
you
see
a
decrease
in
usage
of
gas,
because
again
gas
taxes
are
on
a
per
gallon,
not
on
a
dollar
percentage
of
dollar.
K
K
K
Okay,
I'm
gonna
go
on
to
budget
issues,
so
items
that
are
not
included
in
the
current
budget
or
performa.
So
again
we
mentioned
there's
a
four
percent
merit
increases
for
the
general
employees
for
union
employees.
It's
per
contract
items
to
be
addressed
in
this.
We
do
have
a
pay
and
classification
study.
That
is,
we
just
received
bids
back
so
we'll
be
evaluating
and
then
moving
forward
with
a
selection.
K
But
things
to
be
addressed
in
this
study
are
wages
and
benefits
to
remain
competitive
in
the
current
job
market
plan
to
address
the
florida
minimum
wage
adjustments
on
pay
grades
and
that's
the
15
going
up
to
the
15
over
several
years.
There
comprehensive
review
of
personnel
policies
and
training
needs
for
supervisors
and
staff.
So
take
a
holistic
look
at
everything
there
any
departmental
restructuring
that
might
be
needed
again.
K
K
But
again
we
have
to
balance
these
costs
with
security
and
operational
efficiencies
when
analyzing
our
decision
making
process
of
what
moves
forward.
K
So
those
were
things
that
kind
of
pretty
much
affected
city
overall
and
the
general
fund
and
then
pgi
canal
maintenance
fund.
Again
where
on
the
riprap
mitigation
is
delayed
pending
the
permitting
and
again
we'll
be
looking
at
the
rate
assessment
changes,
maybe
trying
to
garner
some
more
public
input.
K
Again,
bsi
is
facing
pretty
much
the
same
issues.
They
just
also
have
the
two
projects
that
are
not
approved.
K
Utilities,
funds
again,
you
know
we're
still
trying
to
move
septic
to
sewer
forward.
It's
it's
a
little
bit
on
hold
we're
trying
to
find
some
grant
funding
to
make
the
financial
plan
work
and
keep
the
assessment
rate
low.
That
would
be
required
for
that.
The
wastewater
treatment
plant
expansion.
We
did
get
our
land
lease
extension
for
45
years,
that'll
begin
in
2025,
and
then
we
do
have
budgeted
four
million
in
the
current
five-year
plan
with
financing
the
rate
study
had
provided
rate
increases.
K
K
And
for
capital
projects,
we
kind
of
touched
on
this
at
our
last
council
meeting,
but
we
are
experiencing
increased
costs
and
lower
bid
responses
due
to
labor
shortages,
supply
chain
issues,
causing
material
shortages
and
high
demand
for
infrastructure
projects
caused
by
the
american
rescue
plan.
Funding.
A
What
did
we
do?
Didn't
we
receive
some
money
for
the
covid
program
and
we?
What
are
we
doing
with
that
money?.
K
So
we
are
still
working
on
developing
a
plan.
They
did
come
up
with
a
final
draft
and
they
expanded
the
items
that
can
be
that
those
funds
can
be
used
on.
So
I
sat
in
on
a
they
had
a
webinar.
It
goes
into
effect
april
one.
K
However,
they
did
mention
in
the
webinar
that
if
you
started
it
early,
they
would
not
necessarily
take
anything
back,
but
it
gave
us
some
more
options
of
what
we
can
use
those
funds
for
and
going
to
as
we
build
the
budget,
I
think
greg
is
going
to
work
on
developing
a
plan
for
what
we,
where
we
get
the
most
bang
for
the
buck.
I
guess
for
councilwoman.
D
2.4
total
we
originally
had
anticipated
over
8
million
some
of.
D
And
they
reclassified
cities
everywhere
as
metropolitan,
which
we
were
one
and
that
dropped
our
from
eight
down
to
two
point.
Four,
so
yeah.
D
K
So
the
expanded
uses
is
so
pretty
much
general
general
government
as
well
and
we're
they
recognize
that
the
governments
have
been
maybe
working
with
less
employees
since
the
economic
downturn
and
didn't
add
as
quickly
as
like,
say
private
companies.
K
D
And
we're
right
now
we're
kind
of
letting
it
settle
out
a
little
bit
because
the
rules
keep
yes,
I
mean
they
just
changed,
didn't
want
to
say
change,
but
they
are
so
that
we
can
get
the
best
use
out
of
those
funds.
It
is
one
time
money,
so
you
know
we
can't
put
it
into
a
major
baseline
expense,
but
we
can
help
offset
some
of
our
baseline
expenses.
You
know
on
an
annual
basis
if
we
needed
to
okay,
okay,.
D
Obviously
this
is
a
lot
of
information
on
a
lot
of
different
funds
and
a
lot
of
different
money,
but
it's
really
the
first
look
for
council,
so
you
can
continue
to
develop
questions
and,
as
we
move
into
the
budget
process,
then
you'll
have
many
more
opportunities
to.
You
know
ask
questions
about
this
or
determine
where
we
need
to
go
with
certain
things.
Like
the
funding
you
were
talking
about.
K
A
With
the
city
clerk's
office
under
boards
and
committees
for
vacancies,
we
have
two
alternates
on
the
board
of
zoning
appeals.
Two
alternates
on
the
code
enforcement
board,
one
regular
seat
and
one
alternate
on
the
historic
preservation,
advisory
board
and
one
vacancy
on
the
police
officer.
Pension
board.
A
A
Did
I
hear
a
second
okay?
Thank
you.
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
appoint
and
nominate
and
appoint
mr
petrov
to
the
bsi
canal
advisory
committee.
All
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
opposed
motion,
carries
unanimously
all
right.
Thank
you.
C
C
We've
been
in
consistent
contact
with
the
attorney
for
shoreline
foundation
and
hope
to
be
back
with
an
item
on
your
agenda
in
the
very
near
future.
A
Good
yeah,
we
want
that
done
just
as
much
as
the
comment
that
was
made
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
So
anyway,
I
don't
think
the
city
clerk's
office
has
any
additional
things.
So
we'll
move
on
to
council
member
comments
planning
forward
for
those
who
are
thinking
about
going
to
the
annual
florida
league
of
cities
conference
this
summer.
It
will
be
from
august
11th
to
the
13th
in
hollywood
florida
at
the
diplomat
hotel.
So
you
can
put
that
on
your
calendar.
A
We
almost
always
all
go
to
that,
so
you
probably
want
to
put
it
on
your
calendar
and
have
it
there
and
of
course
it's
in
the
middle
of
our
summer
break,
but
it
is
what
it
is.
Hollywood.
I'm
sorry
you
said
yes,
hollywood
florida,
it's
right
on
the
beach!
It's
a
it's!
A
old
hotel!
That's
been
renovated
about
300
times.
That's.
A
A
Yes,
and
as
I
mentioned
at
the
last
meeting
council
member
cummings
and
city
manager-
and
I
will
be
going
to
tallahassee
on
this
weekend-
and
mrs
carey
you're
gonna-
carry
the
torch
for
us,
while
we're
gone
and
melissa
reichert
will
be
overseeing
the
city
operations
while
greg
is
away,
I
think,
did
all
of
you
respond
to
go
to
the
groundbreaking
ceremony
next
friday.
A
A
A
A
I
wanted
to
say
publicly
thank
melissa,
reichert
and
kylie
mcgloin
and
also
city
manager,
murray
for
all
of
their
help
with
the
state
of
the
city
address.
I
think
it
went
very
well.
Everybody
thought
it
was
very,
very
informative
and
I
got
a
lot
of
very
positive
comments
back
from
it.
A
One
thing
I
would
like
to
just
bring
up-
and
that
is
that
city
manager
and
I
had
numerous
communications
over
the
weekend
with
a
a
non-resident
who
needed
some
assistance
and-
and
I
also
received
an
email
from
one
of
our
local
residents,
who
needed
some
immediate
information,
which
became
obvious
today
from
some
comments
that
were
made
earlier
in
the
meeting.
A
So
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there,
and
I
thank
everybody
for
the
cooperation
with
that,
because
council
members
don't
work
monday
through
friday,
nine
to
five
council
members
are
working,
24
7
and
we're
trying
to
be
responsive
to
our
our
citizens,
and
it's
very
helpful
to
us.
If
we
can
get
quick
responses
from
everyone.
D
A
Well,
the
problem
is
in
converting
all
of
our
stuff
on
the
city
website
to
being
ada
compliant
earlier.
Documents
that
are
needed
are
not
accessible
to
us
and
we
can't
get
them
city.
Council
members
don't
have
access
to
all
of
the
programs
that
are
in-house.
So
it's
very,
very
difficult
for
us.
Like
I
needed
minutes
from
a
meeting
in
2018,
there
was
no
way
to
possibly
get
it
on
at
my
end,
so
I
needed
somebody
to
actually
access
it
from
the
city's
programs
and
it
it
was
kind
of
important.
So
we
ended
up
getting
that.
A
J
I
I
I
have
really
enjoyed
being
a
part
of
the
process.
I
will
continue
to
work
for
all
of
you
until
my
term
is
over
in
november.
So
please
don't
count
me
out
I'm
still
here,
but
I
want
to
thank
you
for
your
support
and
confidence
that
you
placed
in
me
by
electing
me
and
allowing
me
to
serve
you
for
these
two
terms,
and
I
am
especially
thankful
to
the
city
staff,
who
held
my
hand
during
the
first
part
of
it
when
I
was
a
lost
child.
Thank
you.
