Thank

C
O'brien

C
Matthew
enjoys
spending

enjoying

while
not
as

B
Thank
you
very
much,
sir.
Just
a
couple
of
things.
Before
we
begin,
I
received
an
email
from
a
steve
michelini
requesting
that
item
number
three
be
continued
to
a
future
date,
so
we
will
not
be
discussing
item
number
three.
Also.
We
have
a
memo
from
council
member
vieira
for
item
number,
one
accommodation
to
american
hero,
colonel
jim
fletcher,
that
we
give
this
commendation
at
11
a.m.
So
we'll
do
a
a
hard
stop
there
and
go
to
the
commendation
at
11
a.m,
and
then
that
is
it,
so
we
will
go
to
public
comments.
E
Yes,
sir,
oh
thank
you.
So
the
only
thing
I
wanted
to
say
on
and
was
that
mr
mcwinney's
motion,
or
that.
B
Was
a
request
from
mr
mickelini.
E
The
only
thing
I
wanted
to
say
was
and
what
I
would
have
said
to
him
when
he
was
if
he
had
made
this
presentation
today.
Is
I've
been
checking
out?
Okay,
so
this
is
in
regard
to
some
code
amendments
that
that
he
and
mr
lum
have
been
working
on
and
that's
all
fine
and
good,
that's
allowed
under
our
code.
E
E
You
know
I'm
not
saying
they
all
need
to
get
along,
but
I
think
at
a
minimum,
then
you
know
they
need
to
have
presentations
made
and
they
need
to
have
their
own
input.
So
between
now
and
whenever
mr
mcmikolini
plans
on
coming
back,
I
would
urge
him
and
or
staff
to
get
out
and
have
that
com.
Those
conversations
in
the
neighborhoods.
E
K
You
having
informed
the
public
that
that's
going
to
be
a
request,
ultimately,
as
a
decision
of
counsel.
Your
memo
states
that
staff
is
to
present
these
land
development
code
amendments
and
you
might
want
to
hear
from
staff
on
this
as
well.
Yes,
these
are
at
least
some
of
them.
To
my
knowledge,
I
I
don't
can't
say
for
all,
but
at
least
the
majority
of
them
I
understand,
are
privately
initiated
and
mr
mickelini
is
responsible
for
that.
But
my
advice
would
be
to
take
up
this
item.
K
When
you
take
up
number
three
and
ultimately
you're
going
to
have
to
select
a
date,
I
would
think
okay
and
then
what
you
would
do
is
then
make
it
a
motion
and
a
vote
of
counsel
it'll
be
council's
direction.
E
E
K
If
council
wants
to
take
that
up,
the
the
interesting
thing
or
my
concern
is
that
a
member
of
the
public
requesting
something
to
come
off.
The
agenda
that
has
been
set
by
a
motion
of
city
council
cannot
be
removed,
except
by
emotion
and
continued
to
a
date
and
time.
Certainly,
if
that's
council's
pleasure
by
emotion,.
D
K
I
I'm
not
I'm
not
questioning
whether
you
can
do
that.
I
should
I
see
ms
feely
and
members
of
staff
are
on
the
line.
If
you
want
to
discuss
that
with
them.
If
you
want
to
do
it
before
public
comment,
if
that's
council's
pleasure,
I'm
just
going
to
ask
you
to
have
a
date
and
time,
and
maybe
staff
can
make
that.
E
L
The
what's
the
continuance
can,
I
just
say
one
councilman,
just
one
thing
process
a
process,
point
of
view,
and
we
can
talk
about
process
more
on
monday.
I
guess,
but
my
understanding
is
that
there
was
some
confusion,
that
staff
thought
it
was
city
council's
directive
that
we
wanted
to
hear
about
issues
like
this
early
instead
of
being
blindsided
by
hearing
about
it
from
neighborhood
leaders
from
neighborhood
meetings,
and
I
don't
remember
the
exact
motion
or
vote,
but
I
think
that
is
our
intent.
L
My
concern
is
that
I
understood
that
at
the
end
of
this
we
would
be
deciding
to
put
this
on
the
agenda,
maybe
for
first
reading
or
some
other
kind
of
review
and
by
the
act
of
voting
to
put
it
on
the
agenda.
L
L
Maybe
there's
an
extra
step
that
we
should
put
in
one
of
my
suggestions
yesterday
was:
maybe
we
would
hear
it
today
and
then
it
put
on
the
agenda
that
we
would
discuss
at
a
future
date,
whether
we
would
put
it
on
the
agenda
again,
so
that
we
could
have
public
input
along
the
way,
but
anyway
we
can
talk
on
monday
about
process.
Thank
you.
M
With
councilman
carlson,
this
is
a
workshop.
However,
I'd
like
to
hear
from
miss
feely,
let's
get
a
date,
let's,
let's
go
ahead
and
continue
it
to
that
date
unless
miss
feely
has
designs.
Otherwise,
thank
you.
B
We
also
have
mr
micolini
on
the
line
too
he's
the
guy
that
sent
the
email,
mr
mickelini,
if
you're
on
the
line,
do
you
have
a
specific
date
for
this
and
we
can
coordinate
with
the
staff
and
everybody
else
in
the
neighborhoods
and
whatnot.
M
I
Good
morning,
council
abby
feely's,
director
of
development
and
growth
management.
I,
while
we're
waiting
for
mr
mickelenium
and
I
did
speak
with
mr
michelini
yesterday-
I
just
this-
was
a
privately
initiated
tax.
Amendment
council
did
request
prior
that
staff
bring
these
items
to
you
first
before
they
go
to
the
planning
commission
and
then
before
they
come
back
on
first
reading.
So
the
work,
the
intent
of
the
workshop
is
to
have
that
open
discussion.
I
Let
you
know
what
is
forthcoming
or
has
been
filed
by
a
private
applicant
and
then
let
you
know
the
review
that
was
conducted
by
staff
and
where
we
are
a
lot
of
times
on
a
tax
amendment
is
only
one.
This
is
a
package
of
amendments
and
we
have
presented
a
presentation
on
that.
That
being
said,
I
do
see
miss
wells
here
this
morning
as
well,
and
I
I
really
would
ask
for
some
clarification
from
council
this
morning.
As
meeting
with
the
neighborhoods,
we
have
85,
I
believe,
registered
neighborhood
associations
in
the
city.
I
During
the
last
couple
years,
ms
dock
has
implemented
a
public
information
session
which
she
holds
once
the
items
come
before
you
to.
In
order
to
share
those
with
the
public,
I
don't
know
that
I'd
like
to
know
what
your
expectations
are
when
requesting
us
to
meet
with
the
neighborhood.
These
are
privately
initiated
amendments.
So
typically
that
has
been
on
the
onus
of
the
applicant.
I
B
Councilman
carlson
and
ding
felder.
L
My
suggestion
is
that
now,
especially
with
that
everybody
knows
how
to
use
zoom,
just
call
a
couple
zoom
one
or
two
zoom
meetings
with
all
the
neighborhood
leaders.
Maybe
the
first
one
will
be
the
name
all
the
neighborhood
leaders
invited
and
the
second
one
could
be
that
they
can
invite
their
constituents.
L
But
it's
a
pretty
easy
way
to
notify
everyone,
and
at
the
very
least,
email
them
what's
happening,
is
that
the
neighborhood
leaders
now
are
emailing
each
other
using
the
city
list,
and
so
the
city
is
not
the
first
and
best
source
of
information.
You
know,
which
is
the
main
thing
you
should
do
in
communication.
L
Also,
there
was
some
discussion
about
how
this
about
how
some
issues
have
come
up
years
before
and
now
are
coming
back
before
us,
and
some
of
us
who
are
new,
don't
know
about
the
history
of
it,
but
also
neighborhood
leaders
change
every
year,
usually,
and
so
the
new
neighborhood
leaders
may
have
no
knowledge
of
what
the
former
neighborhood
leaders
did.
So
if
something
has
not
been
discussed
for
a
year,
probably
we
should
have
a
new
set
of
meetings
to
inform
the
new
neighborhood
leaders.
Thank
you.
E
E
If
mr
mikowini
is
on
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
to
continue
it
right,
this
very
second
but
I'll
I'll,
take
a
suggestion
from
mr
mikolini
as
to
when
he
would
like
to
continue
this.
A
Yes,
sir
council,
we
don't
really
know
the
date
and
staff
is
going
to
have
to
work
on
that,
because
it
also
affects
the
timing
of
your
your
workshops
that
have
to
go
to
the
planning
commission
for
workshop,
and
it
also
has
to
come
back
to
you.
So
what
we
were
asking
for
is
two
things.
One
is
that
the
staff
set
up
the
public
presentation
portion,
which,
which
is
is.
E
All
right
well,
thank
you.
Thank
you,
mr
mcqueen,
so
I
would
suggest
three
months
from
now.
We
can
just
put
it
on
the
june
workshop.
If
it's
not
ready,
we
can.
We
can
deal
with
it.
Another
time.
B
But
I
think
three
months
for
the
date
here,
the
june
workshop
is
going
to
be
june
24th.
So
your
motion
is
for
june
24th
workshop
9
a.m.
If
we
need
more
time,
then
then
we'll
figure
it
out.
We
have
a
second
from
councilman
carlson,
all
in
favor.
I
B
Any
opposed,
thank
you
very
much,
mr
mickelini.
All
right
before
we
go
to
public
cloud.
E
Mr
chairman,
I
just
wanted
to
say
in
defense
of
staff.
Ms
dock
and
miss
feely
put
a
lot
of
work
into
the
preparation.
They
did
a
great
powerpoint.
I
think
they
were.
I
think
they
were
fully
prepared
to
go
forward.
So
I
just
you
know
I
I
don't
know
what
else
happened
and
maybe
it's
in
deference
to
the
neighborhoods,
which
is
good
so
anyway.
I
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out.
There.
B
Thank
you
very
much
all
right,
as
I
continue
with
the
agenda
before
public
comment.
Item
number
four:
this
is
a
request
from
the
administration
regarding
the
care,
atc,
wellness
center
and
vaccinations
and
whatnot
we're
gonna.
Take
that
first
on
the
agenda.
It
should
be
a
brief
presentation
and
then
we'll
continue
from
there
with
the
agenda,
we'll
go
to
the
fire
chief
and
and
continue
on
all
right,
we're
going
to
go
to
yes,.
B
M
B
K
B
To
public
comment
and
that'll
be
fun.
Okay,
thank
you
all
right.
If
there's
anybody
on
the
second
floor
here
in
person
that
wishes
to
speak,
please
approach
the
lectern
state,
your
name,
you
have
three
minutes
after
each
speaker,
we
will
sanitize
the
lectern
and
go
from
there.
Then
we
have
a
few
registered
speakers
on
the
line.
I
have
three
here
and
then
we'll
go
to
the
care
atc
vaccination.
O
Yes,
good
morning
connie
burton
resident
of
east
tampa-
and
so
this
morning,
councilman
I
come
to
you
as
a
resident
of
east
tampa
just
to
share
with
you.
What
has
been
my
observation
from
your
last
week,
city
council
meeting
within
one
week
that
it
had
been
announced
of
a
move
of
city
departments
to
east
tampa.
O
I
believe
councilman
dean
felder
arose
to
the
occasion
to
say
that
the
last
cra
chairperson
had
done
such
a
wonderful
job,
which
there's
no
criticism
from
me
in
moving
the
agenda
of
east
tampa
and
I'm
here
to
tell
you
that,
in
the
formation
of
the
east
tampa
leadership,
whether
it
was
under
sam
kinsey
direction,
the
needs
of
the
community
are
still
the
same.
O
The
community
us
is
still
out
crying
that
they,
the
community,
have
a
decision
in
what
should
happen
in
our
community
and
one
of
our
primary
requests.
That
has
gone
unheard
and
I'm
at
the
point
now
as
a
resident
of
east
tampa
to
say.
Perhaps
it
is
deliberate
that
the
people
are
saying
that
we
want
to
have
a
transformation
of
our
community.
O
We
want
economic
opportunity
for
the
people
there.
We
want
to
see
a
robust
rehab
of
homes
in
east
tampa.
B
O
N
Hey
man
tis,
not
city
council.
If
you
can
hold
my
time,
it's
a
young
man
out
there
for
the
security.
Allied
security
mint
is
not
tampa
florida.
I
would
like
him
to
be
removed.
I
would
like
him
to
be
removed
from
this
post
he's
up
here,
spreading
false
information
that
was
trespassed
from
the
city.
Building
that
last
week
was
trespass.
N
I
have
no
business
up
here
and
have
the
tpd
surrounding
me
like,
if
they're
about
to
arrest
me
and
bro
what
y'all
doing
is
y'all
hyping
this
thing
up,
where
someone
and
more
than
likely
it's
going
to
be
me
or
private
citizens
going
to
get
hurt
down
here,
just
trying
to
speak
just
trying
to
speak,
and
it's
the
nonsense
y'all
doing
right
now
by
basically
trying
to
tell
people
what
to
do
or
what
they
can't
do,
cutting
their
faces
off.
N
I'm
telling
you
this
city,
council,
white
people,
orlando
ghouls,
cowards,
straight
cowards,
y'all
affecting
black
people's
rights
to
wear
what
we
want
to
wear
do
what
we
want
to
do
and
y'all
got
black
people
as
cowards.
Y'all
ain't
had
no
rules
about
no
signs
or
about
nothing
until
black
people
started
coming
down
here.
This
city
was
formed
in
1823
and
not
till
1983.
N
N
N
That's
a
shame
that
y'all
try
to
push
black
people
around
and
don't
discuss
nothing
that
goes
on
inside
the
black
community,
al
orange
park,
fair
oaks
park,
our
kids
getting
killed
and
y'all
stupid
negroes
and
our
representative
discussing
parks,
and
we
can't
eat.
We
don't
have
no
place
to
live.
We
homeless,
we
jobless
unemployment,
underemployment
transportation,
less
gentrification
and
the
cow
was
talking
about
two
parks,
cowards
man,
nothing
more.
Nonetheless,
man,
hey
and
sooner
or
later
we're
going
to
challenge
this
rule
and
our
developers
can
bring
signs
down
here.
N
But
private
citizens
can't
bring
signs
we're
going
to
challenge
this
rule
and
how
developers
can
bring
science
down
here,
but
private
citizens
can't
bring
signs
down
here.
Developers
can
bring
grass
down
here,
but
private
citizens
can't
bring
grass
down
here,
because
the
developers,
just
like
y'all
sitting
above
the
people
right
now,
y'all
sitting
above
the
people
y'all.
On
the
third
floor,
we
on
the
second
floor,
y'all
sitting
above
the
people,
so
y'all
can
do
what
y'all
want
to
do
and
the
people
got
to
be
under
your
feet.
N
D
K
If
I
can
counsel
just
so,
the
public
is
aware
that
council
does
have
a
rule
in
its
rules
of
procedure
which
are
available
on
the
city
council's
website.
If
people
want
to
read
it
themselves,
it
says
no
one
present
during
a
city
council
meeting
shall
engage
in
disruptive
behavior,
including
intentionally
making
or
causing
to
be
made
any
disruptive
noise
or
sound
or
displaying
signs
or
graphics
in
a
manner
disruptive
to
the
proceedings.
C
And
if
I
made
mr
chair,
yes,
I
don't
know
if
the
reference
was
to
the
explicit
language
used.
I
don't
think
we
need
a
sign
telling
folks
not
to
use
certain
words
in
tampa
city
council.
I
I
just
say
that
you
know
using
words
like
that
during
any
time,
public
comment,
etc
is
not
well
taken
by
me,
and
I
don't
think
well
taken
by
anybody.
This
is
a
legislative
body
and
you
know,
folks
of
all
ages
are
watching
and
to
use
that
kind
of
language
is
not
well
taken.
Thank
you.
B
I
I
I
But
for
these
gentlemen,
the
lawman
miscellany,
it's
like
the
fox
building
the
hen
house
they're,
not
just
watching
it
they're,
building
it
and
then
they're,
gonna
watch
it
so
and
and
listening
to
the
staff
over
there
saying
that
they
can't
notify
the
neighborhood
associations.
That's
ludicrous!
In
this
day
I
mean
a
simple
email
to.
Let
us
know
something's
coming
on
the
gen
the
agenda.
I
do
not
see
why
we
should
have
the
fox
building
the
henna
house
that
doesn't
make
sense.
I
This
whole
situation,
where
they're
making
code
amendments
that
that
we
don't
even
know
about
that,
are
affecting
our
neighborhoods.
I
Why
can
I
just
don't
understand
how
come
they
can
make
amendments
and
we've
been
fighting
for
over
for
a
year
and
a
half
to
do
anything,
and
we
haven't
gotten
anything
done.
That's
the
way
we
feel
about
it.
It's
our
neighborhood.
We
don't
need
them
to
destroy
it
any
further
than
it's
already
been
destroyed.
I
I
Good
morning,
gentlemen,
I
of
course
wanted
to
speak
about
number
three.
I
think
there
was
a
lot
of
confusion.
This
doc
spent
some
time
with
me
on
the
telephone
yesterday.
Can
you
all
hear
me.
I
Okay,
thank
you
and
she
explained
to
me
that
there
should
there's
a
system
of
processes
and,
and
they
kind
of
got
moved
around
and
I
you
know-
and
I
asked
her
if
there
was
a
like
a
flow
chart-
and
somebody
put
something
like
this
in
and
you
know:
where
does
it
go
from
there
and
how
does
it
go
through
the
system
and
I,
as
a
school
teacher,
I
I
just
want
and
desire
to
see
something
where
I
can
see
how
the
system
should
work
and
not
have
the
confusion
that
we
had.
Yesterday.
I
I
don't
know,
but
my
issue
with
number
three
was:
it
was
so
technical
that
I
can't
understand
it
and
I'm
not
a
dummy,
and
so
we
that's
why
we
reached
out
for
some
help.
But
thank
you
so
much
for
your
time.
Y'all
have
a
good
day.
B
Thank
you
very
much
you
as
well
all
right.
Next
speaker,
I
have
is
debbie
zomerman.
I
B
Thank
you
very
much
as
stated
earlier,
we're
going
to
start
the
agenda
with
item
number
four,
which
is
a
walk-on
from
the
administration
regarding
vaccination.
I
have
kelly
austin
here,
if
not
chief
bennett,
I
don't
know
who
we'll
be
presenting,
but
when
you're
ready
we're
ready,
go
ahead.
H
All
right,
good
morning,
council,
good
morning,
public
john
bennett,
chief
of
staff,
as
mentioned,
we
want
to
thank
council
for
this
opportunity
to
walk
on
this
item.
I
do
know
battling
kobe.
19
in
the
community
requires
as
much
vaccination
opportunities
as
possible
for
the
public
and
our
personnel.
H
This
opportunity
that
kelly
has
brought
forward
through
her
department
will
allow,
as
soon
as
the
vaccine
becomes
available,
to
be
put
into
our
clinics
for
atc
clinics.
As
you
know,
those
serve
in
a
a
really
good
return
on
investment
for
our
personnel
and
their
dependents.
H
So,
with
that
kelly
available
to
answer
any
questions,
but
hopefully
the
the
walk-on
is
self-explanatory
and
miss
austin
is
here
if
needed,.
I
L
I
just
want
to
make
a
quick
comment.
Thank
you
all
for
doing
this.
I
think
it's
really
important
for
people
to
get
vaccinated
as
soon
as
possible
and
despite
the
emails,
it
is
voluntary
to
get
a
vaccine,
but
I
saw
that
the
governor's
announced
that
I
think
we're
going
to
go
down
to
40
next
monday.
My
age
group
came
up
this
monday
and
I
think
maybe
councilman
goodes
also.
L
I
would
encourage
everybody
go
when
your
age
group
comes
up
or
when
you're
available,
because
we
don't
know
what
the
lines
are
going
to
be
like
later
on
that
my
line
was
in
the
fema
spot
was
really
short,
49
minutes
from
the
time
I
got
off
the
interstate
to
back
and
the
more
we
can
make
this
accessible
to
people,
the
faster
we'll
get
past
this
wave
and
then
we'll
see
what
happens
in
the
future.
Thanks.
C
B
D
Go
to
the
dog
track,
I
mean
they
have
an
operation
out
there
with
the
military
folks
that
are
out
there
serving
and
doing
a
wonderful
job.
I
was
there
probably
less
than
about
40
minutes
as
well.
Don't
worry
about
because
you
see
the
line
backed
up
with
cars
just
get
in
that
line.
It
moves
very
very
quickly
and
they
have
a
system
and
it
works
so
give
action
in.
If
you
can.
B
J
B
P
Good
morning,
council
border
trip
infantry
chief
attempt
bar
rescue.
I
didn't
have
a
powerpoint
presentation
that
I'd
like
to
present.
B
We
this
technical
things
on
our
monitors.
All
we
see
is
a
blank
screen.
If
we
can
get
the
presentation
pulled
up
here,
we
just
have
a.
I
don't
know
if
it's
showing
the
overhead
from
the
second
floor.
Okay,
we
see
the
power
point
up
on
the
big
screen.
Let's
see
about
our
closer
monitor
there,
we
go
go
ahead,
yes,
ma'am.
P
P
These
are
some
of
the
events
that
have
taken
place
since
the
last
four
months.
Since
I've
been
assigned
this
position
pretty
much
we've
completed
the
super
bowl
55
with
success.
We
have
completed
the
cfai
accreditation
with
minimum
to
no
recommendations
we
actually
in
the
process
of
the
pandemic
continues
with
the
pandemic,
and
currently
we
have
zero
personnel.
P
Currently
we
are
in
the
process
of
seeking
six
of
the
grants
the
assistant
transfer
firefighter
to
safer,
the
u.s,
I'm
sorry
iwanti
grant,
as
well
as
the
homeland
security
grant
and
as
well
as
the
ems
mapping
brand
and
additional
help
for
13.
P
Next
slide,
so
throughout
the
accreditation.
These
are
some
of
the
points
of
success
that
we,
the
commissioners,
praised
us
on
as
far
as
our
service
delivery
program,
as
well
as
the
partnership
that
we
have
throughout
our
training
programs
and
the
different
specialty
program
that
we
have
in
the
course
they
gave
kudos
to
the
marine
divisions,
opportunities
for
improvement.
Of
course,
one
of
the
areas,
our
vehicle
replacement
plan
that
we
have
and
not
meeting
the
set
standards
that
we
have
in
place
and
pretty
much
our
training
with
the
different
specialties
they're.
P
Looking
for
additional
refresher
training
next
slide,
I'm
just
going
to
review
a
little
information.
One
of
the
issues
that
we've
had
is
our
cab
system.
That's
the
computed.
Aided
dispatch
system
has
been
outdated,
it's
over
23
years
old
and
we
have
been
the
last
year
trying
to
implement
a
new
cad,
and
currently
these
are
so
many
areas
that
have
been
completed
without
mobile
tech.
We
are
in
the
process
of
developing
them
with
the
training
production
application,
admin
section
one
is
has
been
completed.
P
We
are
in
the
process
of
doing
our
in-motion
mobile
ipad,
call
it
pilot
distribution.
We
have
completed
station
one
which
was
our
test,
and
basically
it's
in
the
process
of
being
approved
to
have
it
deployed
to
all
stations
by
april
2nd
next
slide.
These
are
some
of
the
items
that
are
in
progress
with
the
avl
system.
P
P
We
also
are
in
the
process
of
designing
in
the
designing
phase
of
our
mobile
eyes
pacemaker
and
it's
pretty
much
about
88
completed
along
with
our
membership
loan
data.
E
P
Okay,
so
avl
is
the
only
vehicle,
locator
device,
the
gis
system,
information
system,
mobile
eyes
is
just
an
application
that
we
use
to
actually
do
inspections.
Haystack
is
what
we
do.
Pre-Floor
plans
and
the
routing
is
pretty
much
an
application
that
we're
using
to
give
suspend
this
information
through
the
gis
system
to
notify
all
the
units
of
where
they
need
to
respond
to
the
incident
or
the
call.
D
D
I'm
asking
the
chief:
is
this
all
the
technology
at
this
particular
point?
She
needs
for
the
fire
department,
get
their
communications
radio
systems,
making
sure
that
the
units
are
knowing
where
they're
going
everything
they
say
they
didn't
have.
Is
this
everything
that
they
need
at
this
particular
time
to
make
sure
we're
official
fire
department?
That's
what
I
want
to
know.
P
Okay,
nick
mike
so
coming
from
two
months
ago,
when
we
had
to
provide
some
resources
up
to
the
north
band
to
station
13
station
13,
with
the
impact
of
the
calls
we
relocated
the
truck
we
added
another
engine
with
the
same
level
of
service
to
that
station
to
provide
immediate
care,
we
are
in
the
process
of
collecting
that
data
to
show
the
amount
of
decreased
as
force.
The
units
been
called
to
many
of
the
same
calls,
basically
the
overstaffing
or
the
over
exertion
of
one
unit
within
that
time
frame.
P
P
Coverage
next
one,
so
what
I
am
looking
to
do
to
see
if
we
can
get
a
consulting
company
to
come
in
and
provide
like
a
comprehensive,
you
know
analysis
to
testify
to
rescue.
These
are
some
of
the
items
that
we're
looking
in
order
to
provide
the
level
of
service
throughout
the
city
of
tampa
to
be
able
to
help
increase
our
response
time
within
the
city
to
identify
some
of
what
we
consider
the
hot
zone,
meaning
that
areas
where
we
have
a
lot
of
calls
the
growth
of
the
city.
P
So
just
review
some
of
the
additional
items
that
I'm
looking
to
see
if
we
can
get
assistant
with
is
our
inventory
in
our
fleet.
Currently
we
have
17
engines
that
are
beyond
the
life
expectancy.
When
I
say
life
expectancy
frontline
engines
in
service
frontline
for
10
years,
five
years
reserve,
we
have
17
engines
that
are
beyond
15
years
of
those
engines
are
currently
our
front
line
vehicles
and
basically
they're
redo
for
replacement
in
2025.,
since
those
frontline
engines
should
be
in
observed
status,
but
basically
there
are
frontline
engines.
P
As
we
go
down
to
the
rescue
cars,
we
have
17
transport
units
that
are
beyond
life
expectancy.
Five
of
those
that's
beyond
life's
expectancy
are
our
front
line,
meaning
the
individuals
are
using
those
vehicles
every
day
with
rescue
cars,
we
have
a
five-year
front
line,
five-year
reserve
and
at
10-year
mark
they
are
due
for
replacement.
P
Currently,
we
have
area
letters
two
that
are
beyond
life
expectancy.
We
only
have
a
total
of
six
within
the
city.
One
of
those
front
lines
need
to
be
replaced
in
2023
and
we
have
two
that
are
in
reserve
currently
that
are
at
the
end
of
lexington
2023,
the
time
frame
for
the
area.
Letters
is
15
years
front
line
and
five-year
reserve.
P
That
would
help
with
the
north
end
as
far
as
providing
some
additional
resources
to
provide
the
care
to
the
community.
Currently
that
is
occupied
by
tpd
law
enforcement
k9
unit.
I
would
like
to
see
about
renting
or
purchasing
a
module
to
be
placed
out
at
the
current
training
grounds,
which
is
on
34th
street
for
the
k9
unit,
while
their
building
has
been
built.
P
Make
it
useful
for
the
fire
service
as
far
as
partitions,
just
minor
repairs,
remodeling
that
will
need
to
be
done
so
basically,
one
of
the
items
I
would
like
to
do
as
well
the
additional
peak
car
that
we
have
take
that
and
convert
it
into
a
full
time
to
be
stationed
at
that
location,
as
well
as
another
engine
to
be
placed
there
once
we
receive
the
information
from
the
analysis.
This
will
also
assist
us
with
identifying
areas
where
we
need
to
put
additional
fire
stations
next
slide.
P
So,
of
course,
been
speaking
with
budget
about
trying
to
provide
additional
funding
for
fts
for
new
fire
stations.
Once
we
get
that
data
analysis,
as
far
as
the
purchasing
of
additional
apparatus
and
transport
unit,
based
on
our
current
outdated
inventory
of
our
fleet
units
and
look
into
possibly
a
replacement
plan
for
future
purchase
of
the
apparatus
and
transport
unit
to
keep
us
from
being
any
deficit
that
we're
in
now,.
I
P
Currently,
we
have
a
heavy
rescue.
That's
located
downtown
tampa
would
like
to
see
about
putting
the
heavy
rescue
unit
on
the
north
end
to
assist
retina.
It
takes
about
30
to
40
minutes
for
him
to
respond
up
on
the
north
end,
to
assist
with
any
kind
of
heavy
rescue
extrication.
P
Looking
with
the
amount
of
units
that
we
have
old
fire
station
maintenance
shop,
that's
located
in
west
tampa
has
actually
outgrown
itself
need
a
large
pleat
to
be
able
to
accommodate
the
apparatus
that
we
have,
which
includes
our
area
lenders
to
be
able
to
have
the
maintenance
shop,
be
able
to
work
on
those
units
without
being
exposed
to
the
taking
the
units
out
on
the
city
streets
to
try
to
run
tests
on
them.
Of
course,
like
that
requires
additional
mechanics
mechanics
for
the
maintenance
shop
to
specialize
in
fire
apparatus.
P
As
we
look
at
our
training
facility,
we
have
a
training
tower,
that's
on
a
43
year
old,
I'm
sorry
43
years,
and
we
have
a
burn
building
that
has
passed
its
life
expectancy.
The
normal
firm
building
is
about
15
years,
and
this
is
pretty
much
has
a
lot
of
erosion.
It's
pretty
much
unsafe
to
do
any
type
of
burning
or
training
at
this
facility,
so
looking
to
incorporate
another
training
facility
in
berlin
tower
combined
thanks
light,
the
fire
fictions
are
being
utilized,
24
7
and
with
all
of
the
stations
the
wear
and
tear
dopes.
P
There
have
not
been
a
lot
of
additional
repairs
to.
The
station
would
like
to
go
through
all
of
the
fire
stations.
Do
some
sort
of
repairs
and
infrastructure
renovate
the
facilities
pretty
much
upgrade.
A
lot
of
the
stations
have
old,
outdated
equipment
as
well
as
furniture
that
needs
to
be
implemented
in
this
master
plan.
B
Thank
you
very
much
chief.
Let
me
just
say
before
I
see
mr
greco
here
to
speak
with
the
union.
Is
you
know
with
the
unprecedented
growth
we
have
in
the
city,
with
all
the
apartments
with
the
new
houses,
the
lot
splits
and
all
these
new
houses,
not
just
a
burden
on
our
infrastructure
that
we're
trying
to
keep
up
with
the
amount
of
people
that
are
moving
here,
the
amount
of
people
that
are
living
here
and
our
lack
of
coverage
throughout
the
entire
city?
B
I
mean
the
chief
spoke
briefly
on
what
on
where
we're
lacking,
but
it's
a
significant
public
health
crisis
where
the
fire
department
is
overworked.
Overextended,
you
see
the
life
expense
expectancy
on
some
of
our
vehicles.
You
see
the
lack
of
fire
stations
in
our
city.
Look
at
water
street,
that's
booming!
With
a
lot
of
new
residents.
Look
at
west
tampa,
armature
works
area
north
tampa
all
throughout
west
tampa.
How
do
we
keep
up
more
and
more
people
are
coming
here.
We
have
talks
of
a
moratorium
and,
and
people
saying
well,
there's
evacuation
issues.
B
What
about
looking
at
our
fire
department
that
is
not
able
to
fully
function
as
it
should
be
and
maintain
the
coverage
that
it
needs
so
councilman
v,
our
councilman
c
true.
C
If
I
I
wanted
to
speak
on
this
item,
I
I
this
is
part
of
the
master
plan
that
I
motioned,
for.
I
don't
want
to
begin
discussions
until
we
hear
from
on
my
item
until
we
hear
from
mr
greco-
and
I
know
chief
burkhaus
also
going
to
be
speaking
so
I
just
wanted
to
just
make
that
notation
to
speak
whenever
the
time
for
speaking
comes,
but
I
I
just
wanted
to
hear
from
mr
greco
and
then
the
chief
after
that,
if
I
may
thank
you
councilman
sidrow.
Thank
you
very.
B
M
I've
got
I've,
got
some
questions
and
I'm
sure
that
they
they
can
be
answered,
such
as
each
station,
how
many
people
how
much
population
is
covered
with
each
station,
and
if
I
I
know,
that's
going
to
be
impossible
to
to
break
down,
but
my
point
will
be
we're
going
to
have
two
to
four
thousand
new
people.
Moving
in
to
the
waterside
district
into
downtown
into
the
channel
side,
we're
gonna
need
a
new
station
there.
My
next
question
is,
I
know
when
there's
an
emergency
called
out
for
an
ambulance
service.
M
You
have
so
many
personnel
going
out
with
so
many
vehicles,
usually
an
ambulance
in
a
truck.
Is
it
the
vehicles?
If
we,
if
we
want
more
vehicles,
if
we
can
afford
new
vehicles
in
our
budget,
then
that
simply
means
that
we're
going
to
have
to
have
more
firefighters,
more
ems.
So
this
this
whole
discussion
is
going
to
be
building
on
top
of
building
on
top
of
building
on
top
of
building,
meaning
we're
going
to
have
to
have
new
trucks,
new
personnel
new
stations.
M
E
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
just
for
a
second
going
back
to
to
chief
chief,
I
appreciate
the
presentation
it
was
very
informative.
Is
this?
E
The
presentation
you
made
is
this:
is
this
in
the
form
of
a
sort
of
a
draft
document
already
and
if
so,
have
we
been
provided
that
number
one
number
two
could
use
joe
with
all
due
respect?
Could
you
switch
back
to
the
chief's
screen?
E
Thank
you
number
two.
It
sounds
to
me
like
you've,
you've
and
I
know
you've
only
been
on
board
as
chief
or
interim
chief
for
a
few
months.
But
can
you
tell
us
about
the
timeline,
because
you
talked
about
hiring
a
consultant
to
look
into
all
these
issues
and
also
I'm
curious
about?
Is
there
any
sort
of
draft
tentative
budget
to
to
address
all
of
these
major
issues?
Councilman
miranda's
pointed
out
that
the
the
the
cip
cit
program
is
is
running
out
in
the
next
couple
years.
E
It
sounds
to
me
like
if
we
let
it
run
out
and
we
don't
try
and
get
it
re-upped
county-wide,
it's
going
to
be
disastrous
for
four-year
program,
because
I
know
a
lot
of
your
capital
improvements,
especially
replacing
engines,
and
that
sort
of
thing
comes
from
see
the
cit
money.
So
anyway,
can
you
discuss
at
least
the
timeline
for
for
the
process
that
you
that
you're
working
on.
P
I
would
like
to
see
if
we
can
actually
get
station
o
station
11
before
the
end
of
the
year,
as
well
as
the
personnel
and
that's
what
additional
personnel
in
the
next
fiscal
year
to
assist
with
outfitting
the
units
that
we
have
implemented
even
with
the
station.
I'm
sorry
with
engine
24
that
we
currently
assign
that
station
13
we're
going
to
need
additional
fts
to
fulfill
that
rule
as
well.
E
So
and
miss
bennett,
perhaps
I'll
toss
this
over
to
you-
is
that
that's
not
denim
sitting
there
is
it?
No,
yes,
is
that
dennis?
Okay,
yes,
sir
hiding
behind
the
mat
anyway.
So
how
do
we
you
know?
Typically,
this
is
gener
general
fund
money
and,
or
you
know,
cit
money.
F
Good
morning,
council
dennis
roher
chief
financial
officer,
that's
a
great
question.
You
know
we
have
rough
approximations
of
many
of
these
costs
and
I'll
address
vehicles.
First,
you
know
with
what
the
fire
department
has
identified
as
an
immediate
need.
Immediate
now,
that's
32
million
dollars
right
off
the
bat
and
in
less
than
five
years,
gonna
need
another
three
or
four
million
for
that.
F
Based
on
that
vehicle
breakdown,
that
chief
shared
with
you,
as,
as
you
probably
know,
we
have
relied
overwhelmingly
on
the
community
investment
tax
for
public
safety
vehicles
over
the
last
five
years.
I
anticipate
we're
going
to
continue
doing
that
for
the
next
five
years
also,
but
as
as
you
surfaced
and
as
councilman
miranda
has
surfaced.
That
program
ends
in
five
years
and
half
of
what
we
receive
every
year
already
is
obligated
for
debt
service.
F
We
haven't
spent
very
much
money
at
all
over
the
last
five
years
in
the
general
fund
on
public
safety
vehicles
and
of
course,
I
don't
need
to
tell
you
every
dollar
you're,
throwing
from
the
general
fund
to
public
safety
vehicles,
is
a
dollar
you're
not
able
to
spend
elsewhere.
So
these
are
significant.
F
We
haven't
crafted,
of
course,
all
the
the
estimates
associated
with
the
increase,
an
increase
in
the
number
of
fire
stations,
upkeep
and
rehab
of
existing
fire
stations
and,
of
course,
as
councilman
citroen
said,
the
additional
positions
that
will
be
necessary.
That's
a
long
way
of
saying
these
are
going
to
be
significant
expenses
over
the
next
multi-year
period.
B
Councilman
goods
and
mr
greco,
yes,
mr.
B
D
D
D
D
If
we
need
to
go
to
the
county
by
looking
at
redoing
that
cat
tax
funding
bond,
you
do
bonds
for
everything
else,
so
I'm
just
looking
at
the
need,
so
the
sooner
the
better
we
can
get
a
total
assessment
of
what
we
truly
truly
need.
I
don't
like
the
nickel
and
dime
the
public.
I
don't
like
to
say:
let's
go
here
and
come
back
asking
here:
if
you're
going
to
do
something:
let's
do
it,
do
it
the
right
way,
the
first
time
so
you
know
the
dollars,
you
need
to
get
the
job
done.
D
Public
safety
is
job
number
one.
I've
always
said.
I
don't
like
the
nickel
and
dime
the
taxpayers.
If
they
know
the
need-
and
you
explain
the
need
to
the
people-
fire
safety
health
is
in
need
of
the
people,
I'm
hoping
with
this
assessment.
We
deal
with
waterside
channel
sites
and
other
areas.
Some
of
these
developers
are
building.
Now
we
need
to
be
in
discussion
with
some
of
these
developers
that
are
building
now
that
we
might
get
some
of
that
be
able
to
intertwine
a
program
with
them.
D
Go
underneath
well
that
fire
stays
underneath
the
where
it
will
cost
us
as
much
when
you
look
at
those
avenues
to
arrive
at
to
cut
the
money
dollar
in
half
a
little
bit.
So
I'm
hoping
that
when
we
do
get
this
consultant,
we
look
at
those
avenues,
but
we
come
back
with
the
big
picture,
not
the
small.
It's
like
the
pikes
pro
game.
You
came
with
this
big
number.
The
city
center
you
come
with
these
numbers
same
thing
needs
to
happen
with
the
fire
department.
D
C
Q
Good
morning,
council
I'd
like
to
put
into
perspective
some
of
the
things
that
chief
trip
first
being
very
respectful
to
her
for
completing
that
project
that
was
assigned
to
council
by
council
to
her
and
thank
chief
bennett's
office
and
the
mayor's
office
council,
some
of
the
stuff
that
was
brought
up
in
the
presentation.
Well,
all
of
it
is
exactly
true
and
we've
been
studying,
and
talking
about
and
discussing
for
years,
all
of
the
topics
that
she
brought
up.
I'm
sorry
I'm
going
to
call
her
chief
trip
brought
up.
Q
She's
just
put
it
on
paper,
but
we've
been
talking
about
it
for
years,
the
funding
sources
for
it-
I
don't
know-
I
mean
I've
been
in
the
city,
my
whole
life
and
there's
more
building
in
this
city
ever
than
ever
before
and
like,
if
I
think,
the
mayor
of
even
put
it
out
that
more
permits
and
more
money
is
coming
in
from
building
than
ever
before.
Q
But
those
are
tax
bases
that
are
coming
into
those
neighborhoods
that
we're
not
addressing
the
public
safety
needs,
along
with
all
the
other
infrastructure
that
gets
put
in
with
those
with
those
high-rises
and
with
those
businesses
I
want
to.
While
I'm
on
this
topic,
correct,
councilman
c
citro
on
the
amount
of
people
in
the
channel
district,
I
was
told
it's
up
to
30
000
people
in
the
channel
district,
not
3.
Q
Priority
is
beyond
me,
but
there's
some
other
things
I
want
to
unpack
on
there.
So
all
these
talking
about
dollars
and
finding
dollars.
Well,
we
find
dollars
for
lots
of
other
stuff,
like
18
000,
more
square
feet
over
at
the
convention
center,
when
we
don't
even
utilize
all
the
convention
center
now
like
a
park
over
here
on
the
river.
Q
So
here
here's
some
of
the
other
stuff
stations
station
13
already
had
a
truck
company
that
was
running
like
an
engine
and
chief
tripp
put
up
another
a
quint
in
that
station
and
move
the
truck
another
place.
So
we
didn't,
we
didn't
pick
up
an
inch.
We
didn't
pick
up
another
company
there,
we
just
changed
apparatus,
although
it's
correct
that
we
don't
want
to
use
a
truck
which
is
one
with
the
big
ladder
on
it.
Q
We
don't
want
to
use
it
running
engine
calls,
so
she
was
absolutely
correct
and
it
should
have
been
done
a
long
time
ago.
If
that's
what
we
were
going
to
run,
it
run
it
like
to
put
a
quint
in
there
or
another
engine
company
the
rescue
was
already
assigned
there.
Her
idea
to
reopen
old
11
is
spot
on.
It's
got
to
happen
for
7,
18,
13
and
11.
It's
got
to
happen
so
that
old
station
needs
to
be
reopened
as
soon
as
possible.
Q
The
gis
study
that
I
provided
to
the
mayor's
office
chief
bennett's
office
city,
council
and
anybody
else,
in
fact,
the
fire
department,
that's
a
non-biased
study,
direct
the
information
off
that
is
directly
off
the
city
cad
system.
There
is
no
bias
in
that.
You
can
check
it
ad
nauseum,
there's
nothing
in
there
that
I
put
all
that
information
came
right
off
the
cad
system
provided
by
the
fire
department
through
public
information
request.
Q
Q
There's
no
even
thought
about
it
after
after
the
city
is
completely
built
out
and
who
knows
when
that
is,
at
this
rate,
it'll
be
built
out
quicker
than
what
that
that
gis
study
said
17
stations
with
a
four
minute
response
time
in
any
direction:
north
south,
east
or
west.
If
the
unit's
in
quarters
that's
a
full
build
out
of
the
city,
17
stations,
we're
not
requesting
that
neither
is
chief
trip,
there
needs
to
be
three
stations
put
in
place
immediately
station
11
and
it's
already
built,
even
though
it's
an
old
building.
Q
We
live
in
a
bunch
of
old
buildings.
As
you
know,
we
haven't
built
a
new
station
in
the
city
proper
other
than
a
not
a
new
number
station
in
a
long
time,
so
we're
going
to
reopen
old
11
put
another
engine
and
rescue
car
in
there
and
you'll
facilitate
response
times
that
are
that
are
lagging
and
calls
that
are
coming
in.
That
are
overburdening
the
station's
surrounding
right
there
off
the
waters
across
from
the
dog
track.
Q
She
needs
to
reopen
that
station
and
she
said
that
and
her
thing
that
was
in
the
comprehension
that
was
in
the
plan
channel
district.
That's
a
no-brainer!
You
don't
have
to
need
a
consultant
to
know
that
if
you
build
another
city
right
on
the
outskirts
of
your
city,
where
you
only
have
one
engine
company
that
responds
into
that
area,
also
that
engine
company
responds
on
to
harbor
island,
you
don't
need
a
consultant
to
tell
you.
You
need
a
station
in
channel
district.
Q
You
can
just
open
your
eyes
and
look
up
at
that
skyline
as
you're
traveling
westbound
on
I-4
and
look
at
where
it
starts
now
at
22nd
street.
All
the
way
downtown.
That's
all
new
construction
that
should
have
been
handled
by
the
previous
administration
and
forced
to
put
a
fire
station
here
and
they're
not
asked
forced
next.
Q
The
fire
station
in
in
north
tampa
that
station
that's
going
to
house
that
engine
company
and
that
rescue
car
that's
being
housed
currently
at
station
13
who's,
the
most
populous
station
and
the
largest
area
in
the
city
that
station
needs
to
get
on
the
plan.
You
don't
need
a
consultant
to
tell
you
that
that
book
that
I
provided
to
each
of
you
has
that
information
in
there
and,
like
I
said
that
came
right
off
the
city,
computers.
It
shows
you
where
the
hot
spots
are.
What
chief
tripp
said.
Q
Q
Those
hot
spots
haven't
changed,
they're
still
the
same
ones,
they're
right
there
in
that
same
area,
they're
not
going
to
change
anytime
soon
until
you
start
putting
people
down
in
the
channel
district
until
all
those
condos
from
gandhi,
boulevard
to
picnic
island
are
occupied,
but
we
are
not.
We
haven't
kept
up
in
the
city.
Q
Q
If
you're
going
to
allow
all
this
new
building
west
tampa
that's
station
nine,
it's
already
a
busy
station.
Not
only
that
now
it's
got
dale
mabry
and
dale
mabry
and
cypress
all
that
air.
All
that
new
wet
midtown
activity.
All
this
stuff,
that's
just
come
out
of
the
ground
and
just
getting
finished.
All
those
will
have
bodies
in
them
very
soon
needing
service
will
all
those
new
businesses
that
you
are
allowing
to
come
in
here.
Q
All
of
those
businesses
have
traffic
during
the
daytime.
All
of
them
will
be
needing
service,
yet
we're
relying
on
the
same
amount
of
people
and
apparatus
other
than
in
new
annex
tampa,
where
those
calls
didn't
take
anything
out
of
the
city.
Those
units
don't
come
into
the
city
to
run
calls
unless
everything
else
is
already
out
which
sometimes
they
do
they'll
send
engine
20
into
the
city
to
run
some
calls
or
rescue
20
to
run
some
calls,
but
they
didn't
drag
any
calls
out
of
the
city.
Q
We
just
annexed
a
new
piece
of
land,
so
in
the
city
back
when
we
had
a
couple
high-rises
downtown
back
when
there
was
nothing
on
west
shore
boulevard
back
when
there
was
nothing
in
midtown,
we're
doing
the
same,
we're
doing
the
job
today
with
all
this
new
stuff
with
the
same
amount
of
manpower
except
for
in
new
annex
tampa.
So
if
you
see
the
numbers
she
put
up
for
five
years,
when
we
start
adding
stations,
we
have
to
add
manpower.
The
problem
is
we're
not
adding
any
stations
in
the
city.
Q
We
haven't
been
a
long
long
long
long
time,
probably
back
when
po
was
mayor,
anyways
the
talking
needs
to
be
over
all
the
consulting
and
all
that
stuff.
There's
very
smart
people
that
work
in
this
city,
chief
bennett,
I'm
sure
with
his
analytical
mind
and
the
our
our
great
mayor
mayor,
castor,
I'm
sure
that
they
can
put
some
the
heads
in
the
city
together
and
say:
listen,
let's
get
off
this
and
start
moving.
Let's
start
building
some
stations
and
hiring
some
people,
the
police
department's
going
to
need
help
too.
I
don't
know
that
you
know.
Q
Maybe
the
chief
will
speak
on
that,
but
the
fire
department
can't
take
any
more.
They
got
to
get
some
stations
built.
We
got
to
hire
some
people.
Our
fleet
is
so
depleted,
we're
running
out
of
a
barn
over
there.
They
can't
even
get
any
any
trucks
in
there
they're
stacked
up
all
over
the
place.
You
can't
get
service
work
done,
and
I
know
that
I
believe
that
they're
trying
to
get
something
done
with
that.
Q
I
know
that
chief
tripp
put
it
in
her
her
thing
that
we
needed
to
hire
some
more
more
mechanics
over
there,
but
I
mean
the
the
time
for
talking's
over
the
consulting's
over
that
gis
study.
I
gave
you
that
has
everything
in
there
to
spend
taxpayer
dollars
on
some
some
consultant
to
come
in
here
and
tell
you
the
exact
same
stuff,
because
guess
where
they
get
their
data
from
the
same
computers
that
I
got
that
data
from
that
I
put
in
public
information
requests:
it's
not
some
secret.
Q
I
want
to
praise
chief
tripp
for
the
amount
of
work
that
she
has
taxed
her
staff
with
that
she
has
put
in
the
long
hours
and
finally,
somebody's
come
through
and
said
what
we
really
needed.
It's
time,
stop
we're
going
to
stop
discussing
it.
Now
the
citizens
are
going
to
know
that
the
channel
district
has
no
coverage.
That
midtown
is
growing,
that
that
the
north
end
up
around
bougainvillea
and
bush
boulevard
bush
boulevard
in
florida
up
there.
You
can't
run
any
more
calls
up
there.
Q
Let
yesterday
we
were
supposed
to
start
giving
them
some
relief.
Well,
yesterday,
one
of
the
engines
ran
17
calls
for
after
midnight
what
type
of
employer
you
want
coming
to
rescue
you
when
you've
run,
remember,
there's
only
24
hours
in
a
day.
Each
one
of
these
calls
has
a
report
to
do
so
when
the
person
gets
back
to
the
station
that
just
ran
on
your
grandmother.
Doing
cpr
he's
got
to
get
on
a
computer
and
finish
a
20
page
report,
so
his
eyes
and
his
brain
is
so
fried
by
the
time
he's
ran.
Q
17
calls
it's
just
frustrating.
I
want
to
thank
council
for
listening.
Every
time
I
come
in
there
and
talk
to
you,
I
want
to
thank
john
bennett
for
listening
and
calling
me
back,
but
I'm
tired
of
talking,
let's
get
some
work,
done,
stop
all
the
consulting
and
address
the
problems
that
we
have.
Chief
tripp
just
told
you
that
almost
every
single
unit
in
this
city
is
beyond
its
life
expectancy.
Q
It's
on
record
now
I
want
to
thank
chief
tripp
for
bringing
all
that
out.
I
don't
know
what
type
of
information
y'all
had
out
there
before,
but
I've
brought
maintenance
records
to
the
chief's
office
for
the
last
six
years.
I'm
sick
of
talking
about
it.
When
these
units
go
on
these
streets
and
they're
running
50
and
60
miles
an
hour
down
the
road,
they
weigh
80
000
pounds
when
they
hit
a
car.
They
kill
people.
There's
a
record
of
that.
You
can
look
it
up
we're
tired
of
talking
about
it.
Q
Q
When
the
apparatus
are
rolling
down
the
street,
they
got
to
have
bodies
in
them
to
help
those
citizens
that
are
calling
we've
been
talking
about
it
discussing
it
and
looking
at
it
and
putting
committees
together
there,
you
don't
need
any
more
of
that
that
gi
study
I
gave
you
lays
it
all
out.
There
is
no
other
information.
There
is
no
other
computer
system.
In
fact,
I
heard
cheap
trip
address
our
communication
system
chief
bennett
and
whoever
is
running
that
that
radio
department
or
your
communications
department
when
orlando
goods
asked.
Q
If
you
don't
believe
me,
ask
an
inspector
haystacks,
we
don't
use
it,
and
even
if
we
had
haystacks,
where
are
we
going
to
get
it
from,
we
have
an
ipad
in
our
truck
that
doesn't
connect
to
anything
the
the
the
avl
system,
the
avl
system,
that's
supposed
to
have
been
coming
here
for
the
last
five
years
is
still
not
in
our
sys.
Q
It's
still
not
on
our
trucks
and
when
the
gentleman
that
I
spent
came
to
the
last
meeting
and
said
that
he
put
the
fire
hydrants
on
our
ipads,
he
scanned
in
the
map
book
and
it's
on
some
separate
piece
in
there.
It
doesn't
show
you
it.
It
just
gives
you
a
map.
Page
we've
asked
to
put
some
type
of
dispatch
system
in
our
units.
Q
Councilman
goods-
it's
not
it's
not
in
there.
It's
not
because
chief
tripp
doesn't
want
it.
It's
not
because
chief
bennett
doesn't
want
it.
It's
because
somebody
down
in
the
radio
repair
or
something
trying
to
protect
their
job,
saying
that
they're
doing
good
for
the
for
the
city
and
building
this
software
system.
Well,
that's
in
that's
untrue!
Q
Q
I
have
to
lean
it
up
against
the
windshield
to
get
him
to
with
a
call
where
we're
going
to
so,
if
the,
if
the,
if
that's
all,
we
need
in
their
cheat
chief
trip
and
I'm
being
respectful
to
you,
if
that's
all,
we
need
well
I'll
respectfully
say
that's
not
true,
because
it's
not
all
we
need.
We
need
people
to
get
us
a
computer
system
in
our
vehicles
so
that
we
know
where
our
fire
hydrants
are,
so
that
we
know
where
our
streets
are.
Q
Q
Chief
tripp
has
said
more
than
any
fire
chief
in
in
recent
history
and
I'm
so
proud
of
her
for
that
and
her
staff
they're
all
up
there
working
their
tails
off
the
the
guy
who's.
Writing
our
grants.
We
got
no
grants
last
year,
city
of
tampa
chief
bennett's
office,
and
I
know
that
y'all
are
mad
about
that,
I'm
mad
about
it
too.
Q
We
didn't
get
our
safer
grant
last
year
and
we're
going
to
get
it
this
time,
because
you
chief
tripp,
got
our
grant
writer
back
up
in
that
office,
but
we've
got
to
hire
some
people.
We
got
to
build
some
fire
stations
and
it's
done
I'm
done
talking
about
it,
and
I
want
to
thank
council
for
giving
me
this
opportunity.
B
You
very
much,
sir,
before
I
go
to
you
councilman
sierra.
I
just
want
to
say
we're
asked
a
question
rhetorically.
Why
do
we
waste
so
much
money
on
consultants?
I
remember
something.
A
guy
told
me
in.
B
I'm
not
a
campaign
manager
anymore.
I'm
a
consultant-
and
I
said
that's
just
your
way
of
saying
I
want
to
charge
you
more
captain
greco
laid
it
out.
Chief
trip
laid
it
out.
We
have
the
data.
Why
are
we
going
to
give
somebody
else
money
when
we
have
great
minds
here
in
the
city
of
tampa,
we
can
utilize
it
for
which
we
towards
what
we
need
I'll,
stop
there
councilman
seaton,
then
councilman
vera.
Thank.
M
You
very
much
mr
chair,
joe,
I
feel
your
passion
and,
and
you
and
you
and
I
have
had
long
discussions
you
and
I
have
been
to
citizens
fire
academy.
We
we
we
have
worked.
I
have
seen
what
you
go
through.
You
misunderstood,
my
quote.
What
I
said
was
as
soon
as
midtown.
Excuse
me
as
soon
as
water
street
opens,
there's
going
to
be
an
additional
three
to
four
thousand
people
right
there.
The
only
unit
we
have
in
the
downtown
area
is
station,
one,
the
closest
one
is
on
kennedy
and
willow
or
davis
islands.
M
M
M
M
C
Thank
you,
councilman
citroen,
I
laughed
when
you
mentioned
that
fire
trading
thing
we
were
at
that,
wasn't
my
finest
moment.
Was
it
joe?
I
wasn't.
C
A
lot
of
a
lot
of
funny
stories
there,
no,
but
but
I
I
I
wanted
to
say
a
few
things
I
I
I
I
wanted
to
wait
until
everybody
was
done
talking,
but
if
we're
going
to
talk
about
because
I
know
we
also
got
chief
burkha
here
to
to
talk
from
tampa
police
department,
but
first
off,
I
wanted
to
chat.
Thank
the
administration,
the
caster
administration.
C
You
know,
if
you
take
a
look
at
some
of
the
requests
we
made
first
with
councilman
goods
in
east,
tampa
with
a
a
new
emergency
vehicle
there
thereafter
about
a
year
later
or
I'm
sorry,
a
year
ago,
station
13
with
another
emergency
vehicle
there
and
now
recently,
with
the
changes
made
in
in
station
13.
C
This
is
an
administration
that
responds
to
the
needs
of
the
community
whenever
it
comes
to
public
safety
and
and
chief
tripp.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this
plan
that
you've
put
forward,
I'm
supportive
of
it
I'll,
be
making
a
motion
regarding
this
that
I'll
talk
about
just
briefly.
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
for
your
hard
work.
I
I've
met
with
you.
I,
like
you
a
lot,
I
think
you're
a
good
woman
and
and
you're
sincere
and
earnest,
and
I
just
I
thank
you
for
your
work
and
and
for
joe
there.
C
Anybody
who
knows
me
knows
that
I
love
joe
greco
joe
is
is
as
earnest
as
they
come.
He's
he's
a
wrecking
ball
and,
and
you
know
the
thing
about
joe,
is
he
advocates
for
a
tampa
fire
while
he
works
as
a
tampa
fire,
so
the
things
he's
talking
about
he
lived
yesterday
last
week,
two
weeks
ago,
a
month
he's
already
passionate,
but
then
you
add
that
on
the
job
stuff
and
it
and
it
and
it's
it's
just
remarkable.
So
thank
you
for
that
joe.
I
love
you
today.
Yes,.
Q
C
You
know
that
so
again,
just
thank
you
to
the
administration
for
this,
so
you
know
the
the
reason
that
I
made
a
motion
about
a
year
ago
for
having
a
public
safety
master
plan
which
would
include
both
police
as
well
as
fire
is
because
we
shouldn't
be
coming
with
what
I
call
patchwork
requests
on
crises
that
involve
neighborhoods
and
public
safety.
Public
safety
is
number
one
for
a
city
municipality.
C
It's
got
to
be
the
stuff
that
cities
are
known
for
hank
aaron
was
known
for
home
runs.
The
city
of
tampa
has
got
to
be
known
for
public
safety.
Any
city
does
that's
number
one.
If
the
city
doesn't
meet
its
public
safety
needs,
then
what
is
it
doing?
Then?
What
is
it
doing?
That's
what
it's
all
about
and
by
the
way,
we're
all
in
agreement
on
that
all
of
us
in
our
agreement.
On
that.
That's
why
we're
coming
forward,
but
I
put
this
forward
because
number
one.
I
want
us
to
be
updated,
like
this.
C
We're
talking
about
lives,
we're
talking
about
somebody
who's
waiting
on
on
an
ambulance
for
a
heart
attack
for
their
mother
or
their
father,
their
sister,
their
son
or
daughter,
a
house
on
fire.
This
is
lives
and
that's
what
we're
all
about.
I
did
this
because,
I'll
be
honest,
I
don't
want
to
see
another
station
13.
C
station
13
that
services
the
north
tampa
community,
the
statistics
there
are
deplorable
and
they
are
a
disgrace
to
us
all
told
us
all
of
us.
When
I
get
passionate,
I
speak
spanish.
What
can
I
say,
but
but
to
all
of
us
station
13
station
13,
is
one
out
of
every
one
out
of
23
stations
in
the
city
of
tampa,
but
takes
up
about
one
in
seven
calls
in
the
city
of
tampa.
Look
at
that
disparity.
It's
number
the
number
one
busiest
fire
station
in
the
city
of
tampa.
C
By
far
and
away
it's
not
even
close,
it's
not
even
close,
and
one
of
between
20
and
50
busiest
fire
stations
in
the
united
states
of
america,
the
men
and
women
who
work
there
deserve
better
the
communities
that
they
serve.
My
constituents
deserve
better
and
we
need
relief
for
them
right
now
and
chief
trip,
that's
what
you're
putting
forward-
and
I
strongly
support
that.
C
I
want
to
propose
a
motion
when
this
is
done
for
a
couple
of
things
number
one
to
have
this
come
to
us
every
single
year,
so
that
every
single
council
has
this
mechanically
built
in
no
matter
who's.
The
mayor,
no
matter
who's
sitting
here
in
city
council,
so
that
we
have
this
built
in,
so
that
we
have
a
public
safety
report
from
police
and
from
fire
every
single
year.
Number.
Two,
so
that
the
administration
comes
back
to
us
around
the
time
of
the
budget.
C
It
can
be
the
week
after
the
presentation
of
the
budget,
because
I
know
the
administration
likes
to
keep
certain
things
in
and
and
we
I
think
we
got
to
respect
that,
but
to
talk
about
what
this
year's
fiscal
budget
does
to
repair
this
breach
and
that's
what
it
is:
a
breach
on
public
safety
for
north
tampa
for
channelside
for
new
tampa
for
west
tampa.
All
of
this
workforce,
affordable
housing,
going
up
in
west
ham,
but
more
and
more
and
more
families
going
in
there.
Those
families
need
concurrent,
not
just
amenities.
C
Those
family
families
need
concurrent
public
safety
responses
to
their
everyday
lives,
and
this
is
also
to
and
I'll
make
that
motion
at
the
end.
Whenever
we're
done-
and
this
is
also
too
for
tampa
fire-
I
know
chief
burkhall
will
be
talking.
You
know,
we've
put
four
things.
I
I
always
salute
the
the
leadership
of
our
colleague
and
friend,
councilman
dingfelder,
who
put
forth
an
idea
on
having
our
police
officers
come
with
trained
mental
health
professionals.
That'll
cost
money.
C
We
need
to
know
how
to
get
that
the
administration
there's
many
many
different
funding
mechanisms
that
we
can
look
at
for
that,
obviously
we're
not
that
we'll
have
to
look
to
the
administration
for
that,
but
this
issue
needs
to
be
brought
up
because
it's
the
most
important
issue
in
the
city
of
tampa.
We
have
areas
that
are
literally
in
a
crisis
right
now,
c-r-I-s-I-s
crisis
right
now
in
public
safety.
Our
first
responders
are
many
times
in
a
crisis.
We
talk
about
the
great
work
that
they
do.
C
We
are
exacerbating
their
their
distress
and
their
ptsd
in
a
lot
of
these
areas,
such
as
station
13
and
our
communities
are
in
crisis.
We
have
to
act
now,
and
this
plan
has
mechanisms
by
which
we
can
act
now
so
chief
tripp.
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
your
work
and
mayor,
castor,
chief
bennett,
everyone
who's
there.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
work
and
your
partnership
on
this
issue.
Q
Thank
you,
mr
councilman
vieira.
Can
I
just
make
one
more
comment.
It
takes
me
two
seconds
to
make
it.
I
want
to
thank
all
the
tampa
fire
and
rescue
personnel
that
are
out
there
busting
their
butts
every
day
and
doing
more
with
les.
I
want
to
thank
those
rescue
lieutenants
that
are
working
48-24's
now,
instead
of
24-48's
and
again,
I
want
to
thank
chief
tripp
for
putting
in
the
work
and
actually
voicing
the
stuff
that
the
tampa
fire
rescue
needs.
Q
R
D
Anger,
it's
passion.
You
see
that
me.
Sometimes
that
anger
is
passion.
Look
at
mr
greco
see
you
have
to
be
in
the
trenches
to
understand
the
needs,
see
if
you're,
not
in
the
trenches.
You
can't
understand.
You
only
can
assume
that's
why
I
asked
about
communication
because
you
can
have
the
best
equipment,
but
if
you
can't
get
there,
it's
a
problem.
D
D
D
D
D
Every
police
car
has
a
mount,
and
I
can
tell
you
right
now,
even
with
that
mouse,
sometimes
their
officers
are
trying
to
get
there.
They'll,
look
down
that
commuter
computer
and
bam
they'll
run
into
somebody
because
their
mind
is
trying
to
get
it,
but
they're
also
trying
to
look
to
see
where
that
location
is
at
or
look
at
the
screen
to
see
what
else
is
going
on
things.
Y'all
know
what
I'm
talking
about.
D
D
D
Am
I
right,
gentlemen,
you're
doing
most
of
the
work.
What
am
I
paying
you
for
yo?
I'm
the
consultant
dolphins
have
their
their
their
niche
in
certain
things,
but
when,
when
I
looked
at
that
gs,
gis
packet,
that's
a
that's
a
that
packet
is
pretty
intense.
D
D
D
D
J
Let
me
just
say
this:
we're
talking
about
fire
stations
and
building
and
so
forth.
So
on.
You
have
to
start
with
something
we
haven't
discussed,
that's
the
land
where
you
built
an
arm.
Well,
I
think
that
the
mayor
by
this
message
he's
hearing
today
I
would
get
the
idea
that
she
should
talk
to
the
real
estate
office
and
get
together.
J
I'm
sure
she
has
already
with
the
fire
department
and
needs
of
strategic
planning,
of
where
these
stations
should
be
consultants
are
one
thing:
I've
never
used
a
consultant
in
my
life
that
doesn't
mean
I'm
smart.
J
But
first,
I
think
that
the
police,
the
fire
department,
ought
to
get
with
the
administration
and
figure
out
where
the
needs
are.
I
think
they
already
know
and
where's
the
land
available
to
build
on
that,
and
we
have
to
start
from
the
bottom
up
who
we
can
talk
about
financing?
Yes,
you
can
talk
about
a
lot
of
things.
In
fact,
coincidentally,
this
ends
in
2027..
J
J
I'm
not
here
to
do
that
again,
I'm
here
to
tell
you
that
what
you
need
now
is
to
be
fair
with
everyone,
businesses
that
do
big
business
that
can
give
contracts
for
30
or
40
or
50
million
dollars
a
year.
The
personnel
should
also
have
to
pay
the
same
thing
you
and
I
and
the
rest
of
us
some
don't
even
have
a
house
but
they're,
paying
indirectly
with
rent.
You
cannot
continue
to
give
away
public
funds
for
the
need
of
a
few.
It
must
be
distributed
among
all
of
us.
J
J
J
I
do
believe
in
originalism,
but
sometimes
in
the
regions.
I
don't
believe
that
I'm
called
the
city
of
tampa
bay.
There
is
no
such
city
city
of
tampa
bay.
This
is
the
city
of
tampa
period.
You
don't
have
miami
beach
bay,
you
don't
have
san
francisco
bay
city.
Why
are
we
called
that?
The
name
is
catchy
for
some,
but
it
has
downfalls
on
the
other
side.
I
don't
want
to
be
compared
with
any
other
city.
I
want
you
to
compare
tampa
to
tampa
itself
from
yesterday
to
the
day
to
the
future.
J
J
I
think
that
the
mayor
and
I'm
sure,
she's
smart
enough
to
understand
that
getting
together
with
all
of
you
that
are
indeed
of
this,
all
of
you
in
the
fire
and
police
department
to
come
together
to
find
out
what
the
needs
are,
and
I
think
you
already
know
what
they
are
and
put
it
together,
but
without
that
you
can't
do
it
unless
you
have
the
land
to
build
something
on.
You
can't
build
a
house
if
there's
not
an
empty
lot.
J
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Councilman
carlson,
sorry
councilman
here.
C
B
L
Just
quickly
mr
greco
mentioned
some
of
the
bad
financial
choices
of
the
last
mayor
and
everybody
in
the
community
knows
it
because
we
get
emails
every
day,
complaining
about
why
the
last
administration
was
fiscally
reckless
and
spending
money
on
vanity
projects
instead
of
on
necessary
infrastructure
people
from
all
over
the
city,
south
tampa
east
tampa
everywhere
say
you
know.
Why
are
my
potholes
filled?
Why
didn't
my
roads
get
fixed?
Why
didn't
the
sidewalks
get
fixed?
L
Now
we've
got
a
mayor
and
administration
that
care
about
the
people
that
care
about
neighborhoods
city
council
cares
about
people
in
the
neighborhoods.
We've
just
heard
a
a
present,
an
important
presentation
and
we've
heard
passionate
remarks
from
my
colleagues.
The
big
issue
is:
we've
got
to
figure
out
where
the
money's
coming
from,
and
I
I
trust
the
the
new
police
chief
and
and
others
in
coming
up
with
the
recommendations
that
we
need,
but
we
need
to
roll
up
our
sleeves
and
figure
out
where
the
money's
coming
from
by
charter
city
council
has
controlled
the
budget.
L
We
know
that
usually
the
administration
presents
it
to
us,
but
I
recommend
we
all
roll
up
our
sleeves
and
start
working
on
the
money,
part
of
it,
which
is
the
most
difficult
right
away.
The
police
chief
knows
what
needs
to
be
done,
but
one
source
that
I'll
remind
everybody
of
is
that
we
we
do
have
the
money
for
this
in
the
in
the
in
the
dollars,
at
least
that
mr
greco
rolled
out.
We
have
the
money,
it's
it's
sitting
in
the
downtown
and
channel
district
cras.
L
If
we
put
a
cap
on
the
downtown
and
channel
district
cras,
let's
say
we
did
it
five
years
from
now,
even
whether
the
cit
money
is
here
or
not,
that
the
35
50
60
million
dollars
over
several
years
can
come
out
of
those
monies,
and
the
argument
is
that
well,
the
county
is
matching
the
money
right
now.
L
All
we
have
to
do
is
go
to
the
county
and
say:
can
you
please
continue
to
match
our
money
for
a
certain
period
of
years
so
that
we
can
replace
these
fire
trucks
and
create
public
safety?
And
so
we
need
to
pull
out
our
pencils
on
the
rest
of
the
budget,
but
we
have
the
money
sitting
there
and
instead
of
paying
for
gold-plated
lamps,
we
could
pay
for
fire
engines
that
could
save
people's
lives.
Thank
you
thank.
B
E
H
E
Wanted
to
respond
on
this
consultant
issue.
On
the
one
hand,
I
agree
with
the
with
joe
greco
that
we've
we've
all
including
joe
and
and
now
chief
tripp
and
and
council
and
staff-
we've
all
agreed
on
the
need
to
address
some
of
these
short-term
critical
issues
and
address
them.
Now
we
don't
need
a
consultant
to
to
to
tell
us
what
they
are
they're.
You
know
they're
abundantly
clear,
but
I
think
that
a
consultant
can
be
very
valuable
for
the
long
term
stuff
we're
doing
that
in
the
parks
department.
E
We've
hired
a
consultant
to
to
evaluate
the
100
plus
city
parks
that
are
out
there
and
and
see
what
the
need
long-term
needs
are
and
and
and
and
what
the
costs
are
going
to
be
and
how
we're
going
to
address
those,
and-
and
I
think
you
know-
sometimes
it's
good-
to
have
an
outside
set
of
eyes
to
look
at
that,
as
opposed
to
just
you
know,
just
doing
that
internally.
E
So
I
I
think
you
know,
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
consultant
bashing.
You
know
that
that
we
read
about
and
hear
about,
but
I
think
that
that
sometimes
it
can
be
valued,
it
can
be
a
valuable,
a
valuable
exercise,
the
private
sector.
Does
it
all
the
time
and
I
don't
think
there's
any
any
reason
the
public
sector
shouldn't
do
it
now?
Do
you
should
you
spend
an
inordinately
huge
amount
of
money
on
it?
No,
but
but
for
long
these
long-term
issues
they
haven't
been
addressed.
E
B
Thank
you
very
much
before
we
go
to
chief
bennett
and
tpd.
Just
a
few
comments
questions
why,
with
all
the
building
of
spp
and
water
street,
why
was
a
fire
station
not
included,
and
essentially
what
is
a
new
downtown
number?
B
One
number
two
is:
why
are
we
looking
at
building
this
new
city
center,
which
is
a
huge
amount
of
money
when
we
should
be
addressing
these
fire
department
issues,
considering
the
pace
that
the
city
is
growing,
the
number
of
people
that
are
moving
here
and
all
the
new
construction
I
mean
we
should
prioritize
the
needs
of
the
fire
department
first
and
then
my
last
question
common
is
we
purchase
fire
vehicles,
fire
rescue
vehicles?
Can
we
lease
them?
Is
there
a
cheaper
alternative
than
to?
B
You
know,
run
these
vehicles
into
the
ground
with
constant
maintenance
issues
that
we're
paying
out
of
pocket
for
and
whatnot?
I
know
that
you
know
as
a
private
individual,
you
can
lease
a
car,
you
have
mileage
and
all
these
other
restrictions,
I
don't
know
how
it
works.
On
a
commercial
side,
I
don't
know
how
it
works
on
for
a
fire
rescue
vehicle,
whether
it
be
a
ladder
truck
or
a
life
support
vehicle.
Is
that
a
cost
saving
measure
that
makes
sense
so
I'll
stop
there?
B
Chief
bennett
go
ahead,
sir,
and
then
we
have
tpd.
Thank
you.
H
Chairman
john
bennett,
chief
of
staff,
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
do
a
post
grip
to
chief
trip
answer
a
few
of
the
questions
that
have
come
up
in
support
of
chief
trip
and
the
tampa
fire
rescue
group.
H
First
of
all,
you
know
I
just
want
to
mention-
and
I
appreciate
all
the
comments
on
the
consultancy
and-
and
I
appreciate
councilman
ding
felder's
kind
of
level
setting
on
that
as
well.
When
mr
greco
brought
the
data
to
all
of
us,
he
told
me
who
he
was
giving
it
to
there's
a
lot
of
value
in
that
data
to
jumpstart,
where
we
need
to
go.
So
I
appreciate
the
effort
that
was
done
and
what
I
believe
was
no
cost
to
the
union
and
to
the
fire
department.
H
So
we're
grateful
to
have
that
jumping
off
point
where
a
consultant
can
come
into
play,
and
I
will
tell
you
it's
thousands
of
dollars.
I
think
the
quote
that
we
initially
did
on
the
scope
of
work
was
somewhere
around
45
to
60
thousand
dollars.
What
we're
looking
for
here
is
kind
of
the
gap.
Analysis
on
things
that
go
beyond
where
the
deployment
system
is
it
is
that
long-range,
look
and
it's
also
areas
that
are
a
little
bit
more
obscure
than
answering
calls
for
service.
For
example,
every
ambulance,
for
I
cost
money
ambulance.
H
Billing
programs
is
how
we
interface
with
the
county's
level
of
service.
It's
how
we
interface
with
the
private
sector's
basic
life
support
system,
which
can
pull
calls
off
of
the
high
priority,
calls
that
are
being
handled
by
advanced
life
support,
so
it's
kind
of
that
delta.
That
may
be
beneficial
to
outsource,
to
a
consultant,
to
look
for
the
efficiency
and
effectiveness
to
keep
the
taxpayers
money
where
it
needs
to
be
in
putting
in
those
grassroot
levels
of
service
to
the
front
lines
and
finding
ways
to
recover
cost
benefit
from
looking
at
those
efficiencies
and
effectiveness.
H
Now.
The
next
thing
I
want
to
mention
is
that
I've
been
back
to
the
city
for
a
year
and
a
half
when
I
left
there
was
a
lot
of
supportive
technology
in
fire
rescue.
The
reason
I
know
that
is
because
I
helped
put
that
in
there,
with
the
uasi
grant
and
part
of
that,
just
to
mention
I'll
use.
One
small
example
of
the
haystack
of
the
a-stack
program,
which
was
originally
called
digital
sandbox.
H
The
fire
department
has
to
go
out
and
do
fire
plans,
and
it
didn't
make
sense
at
the
time
when
I
was
looking
at
this
about
eight
years
ago
that
they
were
building
fire
planes
in
one
module
and
they
were
trying
to
run
homeland
security
information.
To
get
are
you
as
he
grants
to
keep
coming
in
a
completely
different
module,
so
we
had
worked
with
the
vendor
to
merge
those
technologies.
H
I
can't
speak
to
the
leadership,
change
and
philosophy
of
not
using
that
program
for
fire
plans,
but
the
ultimate
goal
was
to
keep
the
yuazi
dollars
flowing
to
our
city
in
our
region
and
that's
how
we
get.
It
is
the
data
that
comes
out
of
those
fire
plans
that
shows
our
vulnerability
assessments
to
the
greater
community
and
we
have
managed
to
sustain
our
urban
area
security
initiative.
H
H
And
that's
been
work
being
worked
on
now
for
the
last
18
months
and
I'm
confident
that
we
will
get
this
technology
where
it
needs
to
be,
and
I
appreciate
some
of
the
bridging
efforts
that
we've
worked
with
fire
on,
especially
in
the
last
six
months.
Until
we
get
that
technology
in
place-
and
I
agree,
we
need
those
tactical
technologies,
because
the
most
important
thing
that
happens
after
that,
the
arrival
of
911
unit
to
handle
that
call
for
service
this
city
gets
about.
1.1
million
calls
going
through
the
9-1-1
center
a
year.
H
Not
all
those
end
up
in
dispatch
calls
to
fire
or
police,
but
that's
a
call
about
every
there's.
I'm
sorry
there's
a
call
about
every
two
minutes
coming
in,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
that
level
of
service
with
1.1
million
calls
coming
into
a
city
or
400
000
and
a
daily
influx
and
tourism
is
just
going
to
get
busier
as
everybody
stated.
But
we
also
need
to
look
at
this
from
an
efficiency
point
of
view.
H
So
once
we
have
the
information
between
the
level
of
service
that
we
want
in
every
community,
the
rolling
stock
and
the
personnel
and
the
technology
to
deliver
that,
then
we
have
that
gap,
analysis,
and
we
need
to
close
that
as
fast
as
possible
with
the
financial
resources
and
the
grants
that
are
out
there
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
do
that
in
a
sustainable
way.
But
that's
kind
of
what
we're
working
on.
H
But
I
will
tell
you
that
there
is,
there
is
a
tangential
benefit
to
using
a
very
strategic
focus
of
a
consultant,
while
the
fire
department
and
the
union
and
and
the
rest
of
the
staff
are
working
on
the
grassroots
service
delivery.
So
I
just
kind
of
wanted
to
put
that
in
context
now,
we'll
give
it
over
to
chief
burkhall,
who
can,
if
the
chairman
is
so
ready
and
council's
ready,
he
can
start
the
police
side
of
the
presentation.
Thank.
B
C
May
you
know
he
he's
here,
but
I'm
presenting
him
a
hillsborough
county
bar
award
at
12
o'clock,
so
we
can
wait
30
minutes.
I
don't
want
to
divide
this
and
make
folks
wait
longer,
but.
B
A
This
is
leigh
berkowitz
assistant
chief
of
operations
at
the
tampa
police
department,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
chief
brian
dugan,
to
present
some
key
points
of
our
master
plan
next
slide.
A
So
the
police
department
is
one
of
the
best
police
organizations
in
the
nation,
as
we
are
progressive
and
forward-thinking.
Many
law
enforcement
agencies
come
to
our
organization
to
learn
our
best
practices
and
take
those
back,
and
I
think
we've
had
those
discussions
before
about
the
visiting
chiefs
that
come
down
annually
to
see
how
we
do
business.
A
So
one
of
our
successes
began
back
nearly
two
decades
ago
when
we
developed
our
business
plan.
Beginning
with
our
mission,
we
simplified
our
mission
statement
to
read
exactly
as
it
is
in
front
of
you.
The
mission
of
the
tampa
police
department
is
to
reduce
crime
and
enhance
the
quality
of
life
through
cooperative
partnership
with
all
citizens.
A
So,
by
simplifying
this
statement,
we
made
it
now
available
for
all
officers
to
clearly
understand
what
our
mission
is
and
that
everything
we
do
falls
under
that
mission.
So,
just
last
year
we
added
our
core
values,
which
appropriately
fall
into
the
acronym
of
trust.
Transparency
is
using
innovative
technology
to
enhance
our
efficiency
and
transparency.
A
Respect
is
treating
everyone
with
dignity
and
respect,
just
like
our
golden
rule
that
we
have
understanding
a
mutual
understanding
of
the
community
goals
and
values.
Safety,
improving
officer
and
citizen
safety
through
education
and
training
and
teamwork
is
partnering
with
the
community
to
solve
and
prevent
crimes
next
slide.
A
So
the
campbell
police
department
provides
itself
on
outstanding,
being
outstanding
stewards
of
public
funds
and
we've
become
more
efficient
with
less
resources.
So
back
in
2000,
our
officer-to-citizen
ratio
was
3.2
officers
per
1000
citizens
and
at
that
time
our
city's
reputation
was
known
for
its
high
crime
rate.
A
In
2010,
our
ratio
was
2.9
officers
per
1000
citizens
and
that
continued
to
lower,
but
our
quality
of
service
improved.
So
currently
we
are
at
a
scale
of
the
national
average
of
2.4
officers
per
1000
citizens.
A
So,
while
tampa
has
become
one
of
the
lowest
crime
rates
in
its
city,
we
also
are
projecting
what
the
estimates
of
the
population
will
grow.
We
haven't
received
the
final
census
report,
but,
as
you
can
see,
based
on
our
historic
numbers,
we're
more
effective
now
than
we
were
in
2000
with
the
much
lower
officer-to-citizen
ratio.
A
So
when
you're
assigning
your
personnel,
there's
many
factors
to
consider,
including
the
region,
the
city
size,
the
effectiveness
of
the
organization,
there's
actually
a
staffing
decision
formula,
that's
based
on
a
multitude
of
factors
and
that's
the
shared
community
mission
and
goals,
plus
effective
resource
management
plus
available
discretionary
patrol
time,
plus
quality
problem,
solving
strategies
which
together
equal
crime
reduction
effectiveness.
A
So
nevertheless
we're
looking
for
that
sweet
spot
and
we're
working
with
the
administration
and
our
numbers
to
figure
out
where
that
is,
and
to
councilman.
Miranda's
point
that
sweet
spot
is
different
for
different
communities.
A
For
example,
san
diego
back
in
the
day
had
one
of
the
lowest
crime
rates
of
the
30
largest
cities
in
their
ratio
with
1.7
officers
per
thousand
and
then
there's
examples
of
just
the
opposite.
So
it
is
unique
to
the
city
and
finding
its
own
sweet
spot
next
slide.
A
So
this
slide
highlights
the
amount
of
calls
our
officers
handle
outside
the
2020
pandemic
gear.
Our
dispatch
falls
are
on
slight
decline,
while
our
self-initiating
continue
to
increase
just
so
you
know,
a
self-initiated
call
could
be
anything
from
a
foot
patrol
or
a
crime
prevention
meeting
or
an
other
proactive
mission.
Oriented
function,
as
you
can
see,
our
average
response
times
are
within
our
goal
of
the
average
priority.
One
that
I
think
councilman
dudes
was
referring
to
before.
A
A
A
A
This
demonstrates
our
officers
are
working,
smarter
and
utilizing
intelligence
to
increase
their
effectiveness.
Your
officers
are
laser,
focused
and
arresting
less
and
reducing
crime
at
a
higher
rate.
Moreover,
they're
working
at
much
higher
and
effective
rate,
our
clearance
rate,
is
32.8
per
100
cases
of
all
serious
crimes.
A
So
part
of
this
process
includes
our
proactive
procedural
justice
approach
and
that's
ensuring
fairness
and
transparency
in
our
actions.
This
includes,
but
it's
not
limited
to
our
juvenile
arrest
avoidance
program,
our
adult
pre-arrest
diversion
program
and
our
marijuana
civil
citation
program
and,
as
chief
bennett
alluded
to
before.
This
is
all
accomplished
by
receiving
over
a
million
calls
for
service
and
us
responding
to
approximately
600
000
calls
in
just
the
last
year.
A
So
this
slide
highlights
specific
crimes
over
the
last
several
years
and
it
illustrates
our
recent
rise
in
violent
crime
and
an
auto
effect.
Unfortunately,
this
is
a
nationwide
trend,
as
84
of
the
major
cities
in
america
reported
an
increase
in
homicide
last
year.
A
In
addition,
77
percent
of
major
cities
reported
an
increase
in
aggravated
assaults,
so,
for
example,
dekalb
county
georgia
showed
a
72
increase
in
aggravated
assaults
fort
worth
texas.
A
39
percent
increase
award
of
colorado,
a
36
increase,
louisville
36
and
tampa
show
the
35
during
that
rating
period.
Next
slide.
A
A
A
We
are
proactively
seeking
grants
based
on
the
current
and
future
trends,
and
this
year
chief
dugan
created
the
internal
advisory
team
for
first-line
officers
to
give
him
direct
feedback
on
our
organizational
needs
next
slide.
So
this
slide
will
highlight
our
mental
health
plan
and
I
just
wanted
to
start
out
by
giving
a
quick
timeline.
So
back
in
november
2020
we
published
an
rfa
and
we
received
no
responses
for
a
mental
health
program.
A
A
So,
in
addition
to
having
those
meetings,
the
city
is
moving
forward
and
already
posted
a
position
for
a
new
civilian
mental
health
coordinator.
That
position
was
posted
back
in
february
and
we
received
over
34
applicants.
20
met
the
minimum
standards
and
we
are
in
the
process
this
week
and
next
week
of
conducting
interviews
to
hire
that
coordinator.
A
A
The
team
would
respond
to
individuals
with
mental
health
and
substance
abuse
concerns
in
the
community
and
provide
immediate
access
to
the
most
appropriate
services
during
our
ride-alongs.
We
found
that,
no
matter
how
much
education
is
out
there,
the
local
citizen
is
not
aware
of
the
services
that
are
available
so
having
that
resource
for
real
time
will
make
a
difference.
A
A
Most
importantly,
our
three-year
plan
includes
enhancing
our
officer
safety
and
wellness,
as
we've
all
seen
over
the
last
year
of
the
amount
of
stress
that
our
officers
endure.
Chief
dugan's
made
numerous
comments
in
our
internal
videos
to
our
officers
that
he's
concerned
about
their
well-being
and
their
wellness.
B
D
Since
we
are
on
mental
health
and
that's
a
big
big
tackle
for
these
groups
and
citizens,
we
talked
about
you
put
out
the
rfq
with
nobody
responded,
I'd
just
like
to
know
what
was
the
reasoning
or
did
we
hear
anything
and
why
people
or
organizations
were
not
responding
to
our
rfq,
which
is
which
we're
a
big-time
city?
I'm
just
curious
on
that.
A
Most
of
them
gave
the
generic
response
that
they
did
not
have
enough
time,
and
that
was
a
complex
issue,
so
that
was
addressed
in
that
letter
and
I
actually
it
worked
out
for
the
better,
because
having
a
focus
group
with
all
four
entities
together
and
the
police
department
allowed
us
to
actively
engage
and
discuss
what
would
work
best.
E
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
a
couple
of
questions.
Thank
you,
chief
burkle,
for
all
your
your
hard
work.
You
you
and
everybody
in
the
department
do
in
regard
to
the
mental
health
program,
the
I
look
forward
to
hearing
more
about
where
we're
headed
in
in
the
short
term
and
and
perhaps
in
the
long
term,
the
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
you
and
I
had
spoken
about
the
possibility
of
grants
deferring
some
of
those
expenses.
Are
we
in
the
process
of
looking
at
that?
That's
we.
A
E
You
think
there's
a
pretty
good
chance
that
that
some
of
those
will
line
up.
E
Okay,
all
right
and
then.
Secondly,
in
regard
to
the
big
picture
of
money,
mr
chairman,
I
actually
had
a
constituent
ask
me
this
question
about
money
and
public
safety
and,
and
the
constituents
said:
do
we
have
impact
fee
for
public
safety?
E
We
have
impact
fee
for
for
water
and
sewer
and
that
sort
of
thing
and
when
they
have
new
construction
and
these
big,
especially
these
big
giant
new
buildings
that
are
coming
online,
that
are
all
fantastic
and
they
pay
a
certain
amount
to
help
us
with
the
infrastructure
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
new
building
and
the
people
that
are
going
in
them.
Whether
or
not
it's
residential
commercial
and
that's
all
fine
and
good.
E
But,
as
has
been
pointed
out,
you
also
have
a
lot
of
infrastructure
related
to
public
safety.
You
got
new
police
cars.
You
got
new
police
buildings,
I
don't
think
impact
fees
can
pay
the
the
the
day-to-day
salaries,
but
that's
fine,
but
in
terms
of
fire
trucks
and
maintaining
buildings
and
building
new
fire
stations
and
that
sort
of
thing.
E
So,
at
the
end
of
the
meeting,
mr
chairman,
when
you're
taking
motions,
I'm
in
a
motion
that
we
explore
the
possibility
under
florida
law,
are
we
allowed
to
have
impact
fees
and
do
other
jurisdictions
currently
have
public
safety
impact
fees
and
and
then
go
from
there,
because
I
think
it
could
be
a
real
opportunity
to
meet
some
of
these
long-term
infrastructure
needs.
Thank
you.
Councilman.
B
L
In
in
public
comment,
we've
had
members
of
the
public
come
before
us
and
and
advocate
for
a
mental
health
program.
In
particular,
they've
mentioned
the
cahoots
program.
L
A
So
we
did
look
at
the
cahoots.
We've
looked
at
over
a
dozen
programs
and
the
ones
that
we
could
visit
we
visited,
but
as
to
what
was
discussed
earlier
is
each
city
is
unique
in
their
own
needs
and
finding
value
with
the
mental
health
providers
in
our
city
and
in
our
county
is
where
we
come
up
with
what's
best
for
the
city
and
the
pilot
model
will
be
basically
a
combination
of
all
the
models
mixed
together.
A
L
And
just
if
I
may
have
follow-up,
you
mentioned
mental
health,
responding
to
mental
health
issues
and
maybe
drug
abuse.
Are
there
other
categories
where
you
you
would
send
a
mental
health
person?
Would
it
be
a
sworn
officer
or
would
it
be
a
a
mental
health
person
separate
from
that
and
and
at
what
point
would
you
send
a
mental
health
person
and
an
armed
officer.
L
And
do
you
know
in
studying
the
other
programs?
Are
there?
Are
there
situations
in
another
program,
the
other
10
programs
that
you
looked
at,
where
cities
send
only
mental
health
professionals
or
do
they
always
send
an
armed
or
a
sworn
officer.
A
Very
few
cities
send
just
a
mental
health
clinician.
Most
of
them
are
together
or
a
lot
of
the
programs,
don't
even
send
them
a
clinician
in
the
field.
It's
just
a
care
coordination
and
with
the
community
and
mental
health
providers.
Here,
that's
where
they
were
leading
putting
the
majority
of
their
efforts
in
that
care
coordination
and
not
the
in-field
response,
but
we
wanted
to
do
the
infield
response
and
we
are
putting
that
in
the
pilot
program
and
then
we'll
gauge
it
based
on
that
work
works.
A
L
So
for
any
any
of
those
folks
who
spoke
out
on
that,
if
they're,
if
they
happen
to
be
watching
it's
it's
possible
at
the
end
of
your
pilot,
that
your
pilot
might
say
that
that
would
be
a
good
idea.
It
or
it
may
or
may
not
say
that's
a
good
day,
but
it's
possible
at
the
end
of
the
pilot
that
it
could
go.
L
One
other
quick
question:
some
of
the
same
folks
who
came
before
us
over
the
summer
and
since
have
criticized
the
budget
of
the
police
department.
Some
want
to
zero
it
out
completely
some
want
it
reduced.
Have
you
all
been
able
to
conduct
any
outreach?
L
You
know
as
the
budget
discussions
come
up
again
now
and
and
especially
as
we
get
closer
to
august
and
october,
have
you
have
you
all
been
able
to,
and
I
know
these
are
difficult
conversations-
sorry
to
put
you
on
the
spot,
but
we're
going
to
have
lots
of
people
in
front
of
us
and
is
it
possible
or
have
you
all
reached
out
to
them
to
those
groups
to
have
direct
conversations
and
go
through
the
budget
and
detail
and
listen
to
their
concerns?
L
A
Been
quite
a
few
that
I
have
spoken
with
directly
and
I
know
chief
dugan
has
and
and
the
slide
that
I
showed
earlier
illustrated
how
we
were
good
stewards
of
our
our
money
and
the
taxpayers
money
by
naturally,
you
know
basically
defunding
ourselves
over
time
because
we're
progressive
we
went
from
having
more
cops
and
a
higher
crime
rate
to
having
less
cops
and
a
lower
crime
rate.
So
we've
already
done
that
naturally,
so
having
that
conversation
with
everybody,
that'll
listen
will
have
that
with,
and
I
think
some
of
the
ones
that
you're
referring
to.
L
We
have
people
come
before
us
that
want
us
to
spend
more
money
on
the
police
and
we
have
people
that
want
to
spend
zero
money
on
the
police
and
everything
in
between,
and
you
know,
we're
we
are
on
the
front
line
of
providing
responsiveness
to
the
to
the
community
for
their
concerns,
you're
on
the
front
line
of
saving
people's
lives
and
protecting
community-
and
you
know
we
appreciate
your
dealing
directly
with
concerns
of
the
community
so
that
we
can
address
them
together.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
you
know,
and
and
building
on
those
questions.
I
wanted
to
point
something
out
that
I've
always
believed
in
in
this
narrative
and
in
this
discussion,
which
is
that,
if
we're
gonna
have
smart
policing
quote
unquote,
you
know
the
reforms
we're
talking
about
cost
money,
implicit
bias,
training,
that's
not
free!
That
takes
up
time
of
personnel
that
costs
a
lot
of
money.
C
Body
cameras,
millions
of
dollars,
mental
health
improvements
to
have
a
mental
health
counselor
come
along
with
a
law
enforcement
officer
and
calls
that
deal
with
mental
health
challenges
that
costs
a
lot
of
money,
something
that
I've
always
maintained
throughout
this
dialogue.
You
know
a
lot
of
people
talk
about
defunding
the
police.
I've
always
opposed
that
since
day.
C
One
and
my
response
has
always
been
that,
if
we're
going
to
have
these
kinds
of
changes
in
policing
that
we're
talking
about
here
today,
things
like
body
cameras,
things
like
talking
about
mental
health,
mental
health
for
law
enforcement
officers
too
men
and
women
who
are
put
in
some
of
the
worst
situations,
and
then
we
expect
them
to
come
out
just
just
fine.
That
costs
a
lot
of
money.
C
C
I
think
that
a
lot
of
times
we've
been
given
false
choices
when
it
comes
to
law
enforcement
either
you
know
defund
the
police
or
keep
things
as
they
are
a
lot
of
thoughtful
people,
including,
I
think
the
majority
of
the
american
people
happen
to
say
that
we
can
support
law
enforcement.
We
can
have
response
times
and
levels
of
service
when
it
comes
to
law
enforcement
and
public
safety
challenges
that
meet
our
expectations,
while
at
the
same
time
having
community
policing
talking
about
mental
health.
Talking
about
ptsd
talking
about
implicit
bias,
training
for
law
enforcement.
C
Talking
about
body
cameras,
we
can
have
both
we're
often
given
false
choices,
and
I've
always
refused
to
believe
that,
because
we
don't
have
to
choose
one
or
the
other,
and
I
think
that
the
way
that
we're
going
is
certainly
a
way
in
which
promotes
good
thinking
on
policing,
while
that
public
safety
mentality
that
we
need
to
have
as
a
city.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Thank.
M
You
very
much
mr
chair
chief,
we've
been
talking
today
about
public
safety
and
in
fire
there
was
talk
about
their
communications.
There
are
some
places
within
the
city
of
tampa
where
the
police
radio
is
either
weak
or
non-existent.
Have
that
issue
been
been
brought
up
since
I
brought
it
up
a
couple
months
ago.
A
Yes,
it
is,
there
is
an
active
p25
plan
that
we're
working
on
that's
a
scale
plan.
That's
using
uasi
grants
as
well
as
other
funds
that
have
been
allocated
for
that,
so
that
plan
has
already
been
done
is
is
in
the
process.
M
All
right,
I
thank
you
for
responding
to
that
so
quickly
when
we
were
on
the
campaign
trail
and
as
we
discussed
with
so
many
residents
in
the
city,
the
basic
needs
is
what
they're
asking
for
good
roads,
well-lit
roads,
taking
away
our
waste
boats,
solid
and
and
liquid,
and
they
want
to
feel
safe
with
both
fire
and
police.
The
city
of
tampa
is
growing
exponentially
and
I
hope
that
our
police
department
and
our
fire
department
will
follow
suit
as
quickly
and
as
much
as
we
grow.
Thank
you
both
for
your
reports.
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
C
I
only
say
this
because
I've
I've
got
to
run
into
about
five
minutes.
I
have
to
do
that
commendation
and
then
we
have
to
do
something
for
the
hillsborough
county
bar
association.
We
have
to
log
in
at
11
45..
May
I
make
number
one.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
everyone
from
the
administration
is
done,
because
I
don't
want
to
yeah.
C
Okay,
good,
I
I
know
that
councilman,
dingfelder
and
councilman
miranda
had
a
couple
motions.
They
talked
about.
It
had
separate
motions.
I
want
to
be
able
to
support
those
motions.
B
E
Yes,
mr
chairman,
and
I
would
like
to
go
ahead
and
motion
request
that
staff
come
back
to
us
with
a
report
and
recommendation
as
related
to
the
possibility
of,
and
this
would
be
legal
staff
as
well.
The
possibility
of
implementing
public
service
impact
fees
to
support
police
and
fire
might
be
two
different
impact
fees.
I've
been
looking,
it
up,
looks
like
hillsborough,
county
has
had
a
fire
impact
fee
and
I
see
other
jurisdictions
on
my
computer
that
have
had
police
and
fire
for
for
many
years.
E
E
It
it
will
probably
be
at
least
a
year-long
task,
but
let's
start
at
the
beginning:
I'd
request,
staff
and
legal
to
come
back
in
one
month.
B
M
C
Yes,
sir,
a
couple
if
I
may
number
one
you
know
this,
I
call
this
the
public
safety
master
plan
and
I
and
I
got
that
off-
of
the
parks
and
recreation
master
plan,
I'd
like
to
motion
that
this
be
done
in
an
annual
basis
and
we
can
have
it
in
the.
What
do
you
know
the
third
week
of
of
march
every
year
that
this
is
a
report?
That's
done
from
police
and
fire
so
that,
if
it
just
doesn't
come
up
that.
B
C
And
yes,
sir,
and
if
I
may
as
well,
also
wanted
to
motion
that
I'll
make
it
tentatively
the
second
week
in
august.
I
don't
that
a
report
be
done
to
tampa
city
council
on
how
the
mayor's
this
this
year's
fiscal
year
budget
addresses
some.
The
the
the
challenge
is
brought
up
in
the
report
from
tpd
and
tampa
fire
rescue
so
that
those
can
be
identified
again.
C
B
C
And
lastly,
if
I
may,
I
had
a
motion,
it's
funny
something
I
was
sitting
here
during
our
last
cra
meeting,
and
I
was
thinking
to
myself
how
much
I
would
love
to
see
a
city
or
cra
youth
program.
I
often
think
about
the
the
the
wpa,
the
triple
c,
the
nya
from
the
1930s,
and
I've
always
thought
that
our
city
should
have
a
a
better
program
to
put
our
youth
at
work
in
areas
like
east
tampa.
C
Sulphur
springs,
university
area,
west
ham,
etcetera
and
I
spoke
to
staff
on
it
and
there
are
some
things
in
the
works,
and
I
wanted
to
build
on
that
through
emotion
on
the
the
east.
Tampa
cra
has
had
a
youth
employment
program
for
some
time,
the
cra
funds,
the
salaries
for
students
to
have
full-time
work
for
a
couple
of
months
over
the
summer
through
the
neighborhood
enhancement
team.
C
This
gives
young
people
the
opportunity
to
gain
job
experience,
life
skills
and
paycheck
during
the
summer
and
also
improve
their
their
neighborhoods
and
continue
to
be
stakeholders
in
their
neighborhoods.
I
I
want
to
make
a
motion
that
the
city
administration
look
for
opportunities
to
use
the
the
outline
of
this
east
tampa
program
as
a
model
to
replicate
in
some
of
our
other
at-risk
communities
such
as
sulphur
springs,
the
university
area,
west
ham,
etc.
C
These
can
be
summer
employment
or
after
school
during
the
year
and
with
other
departments.
I
would
like
to
see
this
as
one
unified
program
under
that
can
be
jointly
funded
with
the
cra
in
the
city
of
tampa
for
our
for
our
at-risk
areas,
but
I
think
it's
important
that
the
city
look
for
a
way
to
support
all
of
our
youth,
both
in
the
cra
areas
and
in
other
areas
that
are
disadvantaged.
We
can
potentially
coordinate
with
the
cra,
but
I'd
like
to
have
that.
C
Come
back
to
us
and
let's
say
what
are
we
in
the
end
of
march?
How
about
the
the
last
week
in
april.
D
D
Everyone
doesn't
like
to
pick
up
trash.
Some
people
have
you
know
heat
elements
and
things
like
that.
So
if
we're
going
to
do
it,
let's
just
do
it
right
to
where-
and
you
know,
cra
dollars
can
only
be
used
for
certain
things
in
crazy,
but
if
we
do
something
that
they
can
coordinate
with
that
that
they
look,
we
look
at
some
other
opportunities
within
the
city
other
than
picking
up
trash.
C
Yes,
sir
councilman
goodson
very
well
taken
sir.
The
way
I
envision
this
is
to
have
young
people
continue
to
be
stakeholders
in
their
community.
It
could
be
everything
from
assisting
old
people,
helping
the
homeless
cleaning
streets,
rebuilding
areas
and
neighborhoods.
It
could
be
a
whole
wide
variety
of
that.
So
I
agree
with
you.
100
percent.
The
spirit
of
your
comments
is
incorporated.
B
B
L
Just
quickly,
if
I
may,
we
we
had
scheduled
a
year
ago
before
the
pandemic
for
marlon
anderson
to
get
accommodation,
and
I
would
just
like
to
make
a
motion
to
move.
It
was
scheduled
originally
for
march
26
2020
I'd
just
like
to
reschedule
it
for
june
3rd.
Please.
L
Quickly
quickly,
also
the
thank
you
all
for
delaying
the
discussion
on
the
moratorium.
Last
week
I,
and
for
pardoning
my
absence,
I
did
watch
the
meeting
on
youtube
the
last
few
days.
I
hope
that
by
next
week,
when
it
comes
back
that
we
will
have
an
alternative,
you
all
may
know
from
constituents,
I'm
against
the
moratorium.
I
think
it's
it
doesn't
solve
the
problem
for
the
community
if
pres,
if
not
presented
with
an
alternative,
I'll
support
it,
but
I
overall
I
do
not
support
it.
L
I
support
finding
long-term
solutions
for
the
community
and
I'm
glad
that
carol
post
has
set
up
a
meeting
tomorrow
with
the
community
to
meet
with
them.
I've
been
talking
to
developers
in
the
community.
I
know
others
of
you
have
been
as
well.
Hopefully
we
can
come
to
a
long-term
solution
by
next
thursday.
Instead
of
a
moratorium,
that's
really
what
the
community
wants,
and
last
the
the
toilet
tap
issue
has
has
reappeared.
L
The
the
water
department
has,
I
think,
four
criteria
for
the
objective
outside
analysis
just
or
alternatives
analysis,
I'm
hearing
feedback
from
the
community
that
the
water
department
is
combining
all
four
criteria
to
say
there
needs
to
be
one
solution
for
all
four
criteria
when
multiple
solutions
could
address
each
of
the
four
issues,
and
so
in
your
discussions
with
the
water
department,
I
hope
you'll
have
tough
conversations
with
them
to
make
sure
that
the
alternatives
analysis
is
is
fair
and
objective
and
transparent,
unlike
the
last
one
was
done
a
couple
years
ago.

Oh,
it's
got
to
be

all
right
now.
D
C
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
chair.
It's
a
real
pleasure
to
be
here
today.
You
know
today,
colonel
jim
fletcher
who's
here
with
a
bunch
of
friends,
is
receiving
the
the
liberty
bell
award
from
the
hillsborough
county
bar
association.
We
myself
and
judge
holder
had
nominated
him
for
that.
He
got
that
and
you
know
colonel
jim
fletcher.
Many
of
you
all
know
him
he's
one
of
my
favorite
people
he's
such
a
fine
gentleman.
C
He
is
the
the
president
of
vietnam
veterans
of
america,
chapter
787
here
in
tampa
and
has
many
many
other
titles.
Colonel
fletcher
is
one
of
them
and
he
hates
this.
By
the
way
it's
he's
one
of
the
most
humble
people,
you'll
ever
find
he's
a
man
of
decency
and
humanity
he's
a
man
of
just
good
values.
Like
I
always
say
about
colonel
fletcher,
he
doesn't
just
love
america,
he
loves.
C
He
loves
americans
because
he
knows
that
you
can't
love
america
unless,
if
you
love
all
americans
and
show
them
the
respect
that
they
need-
and
they
deserve
he's-
also
one
of
the
senior
mentors
in
the
veterans
treatment
court
here
in
hillsborough
county,
and
so
I
wanted
to
give
him
a
tampa
city
council
commendation
for
all
his
work
again.
Colonel
fletcher
is
a
man
that
I
love
dearly.
I
consider
him
to
be
family
and
just
have
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
love
for
this
man.
So
just
wanted
to
do
that.
C
We
have
to
run
to
the
hcba
in
about
five
minutes,
but
I'll.
Let
council
members
chime
in.
If
you
all
would
like
to
before.
I
guess
colonel
before
we
present
it.
B
All
right,
colonel
fletcher,
you're,
an
american
hero
and
a
treasure
in
this
community,
you
and
all
other
