Mr
shelby,
do
you
need
to
say
anything
to
the
public
in
reference
to
the
public
comment
section,
sir,.
D
Well,
it
may
be
actually
part
of
ms
feely's
presentation,
just
the
language
that's
contained
within
the
agenda
states
that
this
meeting
is
a
special
call
meeting
and
also
discusses
the
purpose.
I
believe
that
will
be
explained
to
council
all.
B
D
I
see
miss.
E
We
came
before
you
at
the
beginning
of
june
to
kick
off
the
housing's
annual
action
plan
for
our
funding
sources
and
since
that
time
we
have
conducted
an
rfa
for
request
for
services
and
we're
going
to
get
into
some
numbers
with
you
here
tonight
for
our
upcoming
fiscal
year.
22
allocations
before
we
do
that.
I
did
just
want
to
take
a
moment.
I
know
that
each
week
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
discussing
affordable
housing,
housing
services,
owner
occupied
rehab,
many
of
the
programs
that
the
city
does
offer
and
a
lot
of
times.
E
We
don't
put
into
perspective
how
many
households
and
families
that
were
actually
touching.
So
in
our
last
year,
in
our
fiscal
20
year,
we
were
able
to
help
and
provide
services
to
3777
households,
equaling
just
roughly
close
to
10
million
dollars.
E
It
was
9.9
million
dollars
that
the
action
plan
identified
and
and
served
so
in
fiscal
year
21,
and
we
have
just
about
60
days
left
in
that
program
year,
because
that
will
wrap
up
at
the
end
of
september,
but
we
were
able
to
increase
that
to
4
000
households
and
just
about
12
and
a
half
million
dollars
and
the
plan
that
keon's
going
to
share
with
you
tonight.
E
E
So
I
can't
say
enough
about
chaon
and
her
team's
efforts
as
they
had
continued
to
really
grow
the
city's
efforts
in
the
services
we
provide,
and
I
will
turn
it
over
to
k
on
now.
Thank
you
and
I
wanted
to
thank
you
for
calling
this
special
call
tonight.
I
did
forget
to
say
that
I
know
that
as
part
of
our
public
participation
plan
and
our
commitments,
we
do
have
one
evening
hearing
that
that
is
tonight,
and
we
appreciate
the
consideration
to
hold
that
this
evening.
So
thank
you.
F
Thank
you
good
evening
can
I
have
permission
to
share
my
screen.
F
F
F
We're
going
to
go
through
just
talk
about
really
what
the
purpose
of
the
action
plan
is,
what
we're
looking
for
the
upcoming
year
to
look
like
and
what
we're
proposing,
what
some
of
those
funding
source
and
programs
are,
what
really
is
left
over
of
the
timeline
so
far
and
any
public
input
should
there
be
any
at
the
end?
That
will
also
ask
for
additional
input.
F
So
I
just
kind
of
give
a
little
bit
really
what
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
today
for
the
overview.
Our
action
plan
is
what
we
submit
to
hud
annually.
It's
part
of
a
five-year
consolidated
plan.
The
city
is
in
the
fourth
year
of
that
plan,
so
next
year
we'll
be
responsible
for
really
going
back
through
and
looking
at
what
our
next
five
years
would
be
proposed
to
be
so
we're
in
year.
Four
and
the
funding
source
is
all
federal.
F
Although
ship
is
not
a
part
of
our
estimated
funding
for
federal,
I
still
like
to
put
it
in
there,
so
you
can
kind
of
see
the
bigger
picture
as
we
leverage
some
of
those
funds.
So
this
is
just
an
estimated
award
london
that
we
plan
to
allocate
throughout
the
next
fiscal
year,
which
is
approximately
16.5
million.
F
Our
annual
allocation
for
each
of
these
are
not
what
you're
seeing
here.
However,
what
we've
done
is
gone
back
through
and
added
what
program
income
we
had
and
any
prior
year,
funds
that
we
may
have
had
that
were
not
yet
expended
as
a
result.
This
is
what
we
have
to
go
through
for
the
next
year
and
just
allocate
for
some
programs.
F
I
did
a
little
bit
more
of
a
breakdown
here.
Just
so,
you
can
see
what
some
of
those
programs
will
look
like
and
we'll
go
through
a
little
bit
more
as
we
talked
about
the
request
for
application,
and
so
here
these
are
some
of
the
housing
projects
we'll
continue
to
fund
housing,
counseling
our
down
payment
assistance.
Generally,
we
fund
about
a
million
dollars.
F
We've
had
such
a
big
undertake
for
that
this
year
and
had
to
increase
that
that
we're
now
going
to
allocate
a
little
bit
more,
which
is
1.5
our
hopwa
program,
the
ones
for
hiv
and
aids
for
housing.
That
is
the
biggest
grant
we
receive.
However,
that
grant
is
for
four
counties.
We
oversee
that
program
for
not
just
hillsboro
but
hillsborough,
pinellas,
pascua
and
hernando.
F
We
have
to
do
an
allocation
of
public
services,
which
is
15
of
our
cdbg
allocation,
so
we
generally
fund
about
500
000
annually.
Then
we
have
some
homeless
programs.
Our
esg
funding
is
not
necessarily
the
biggest
fund
and
we
get
about
a
quarter
million
dollars,
and
so
we've
added
some
additional
funding
from
our
home
funds
to
help
with
those
homeless
services,
and
so
our
home
tibor
program,
which
is
tenant-based
rental
assistant
kind
of
leverages.
Those
who
are
homeless
and
and
add
to
the
fund
that
we
get
for
esg
specific
for
this
year.
F
What
we're
looking
to
fund
really
with
our
cdbg
allocation,
which
really
kind
of
helps
to
really
make
sure
that
our
community
are
being
served,
we're
expanding
economic
opportunities
for
those
who
are
low
income,
moderate
income,
family
and
households,
really
to
create
a
suitable
living
living
environment
for
them,
and
this
might
be
housing
and
it
could
be
services,
and
so
I'll
go
through
a
little
bit.
What
our
public
service
activities
look
like
our
public
facilities
and
our
housing
counseling.
F
As
a
result,
this
is
where
we've
panned
out
with
the
agencies
that
applied,
and
so
these
are
the
five
programs
that
we're
proposing
to
fund
for
the
upcoming
year
with
our
cdbg
public
services
and
that
each
of
those
agencies
will
get
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
When
we
go
through
our
application,
we
ask
them
to
match
dollar
for
dollars,
so
that
allows
us
to
assist
more
individuals
throughout
the
year,
so
they
usually
will
match
it
from
other
sources
of
funds
that
they
receive
our
housing
counseling
agencies.
F
We
have
three
hud
approved
housing,
counseling
agencies
that
we're
working
with,
and
we've
been
working
with
these
agencies
there
in
the
second
year
of
their
third
year
agreement,
salinas
house
and
housing
and
education
alliance,
both
are
getting
a
hundred
thousand
reach,
which
is
real
estate,
education
and
community
housing,
they'll
get
75
000.
So
for
our
home
ownership
program,
we
fund
these
three
agencies
and
they
process
the
application.
On
our
behalf.
F
We
also
released
an
application
for
public
facilities
this
year,
from
that
we
had
sunrise
children's
services
and
the
skills
center,
and
both
agencies
have
been
funded
by
us
in
the
past
sunrise.
Children's
services
had
us
out
there
shortly
after
we
funded
them
really
just
to
kind
of
show
us
how
our
funding
was
able
to
help
them.
They
had
kids
with
special
needs
and
so
something
that
probably
seems
quite
simple
to
us.
They
had
to
build
in
a
covered
area,
so
his
parents
came
and
picked
up.
F
They
weren't
getting
wet,
as
they
were
wheeling,
their
kids
out
in
wheelchair
and
so
just
being
able
to
provide
some
additional
public
facilities.
This
year
was
really
nice.
We
did
set
out
to
fund
1.5
million.
We
fund
a
little
bit
over
a
million
dollars,
so
we
do
have
some
additional
funding
and
we'll
release
another
rfa
for
public
facilities.
Later
this
year.
F
F
We
have
two
agencies
that
are
funded
for
rapid
re-housing,
which
is
don
and
family
services
and
catholic
charities.
In
the
spring
of
tampa
bay,
our
tv
shelter
we
also
fund
annually
we've
been
funding.
These
three
agencies,
quite
for
some
time,
just
based
on
who
actually
submits
an
application
and
so
we're
in
year,
two
of
that
application,
and
we
try
to
do
three
year
agreements
with
a
lot
of
these
agencies.
So
we
don't
disrupt
services
for
families
in
the
chance
that
they
were
switching
from
one
agency
to
the
other.
F
Our
hopful
program,
I
discussed
a
little
bit
earlier.
The
city
is
responsible
for
implementing
this
program
for
four
counties:
pasco
pinellas,
fernando
and
hillsborough.
We
get
the
largest
amount
here
for
hillsborough
county,
and
so
we
then
oversee
for
the
other
counties.
It
really
helps
to
maintain
stable
housing
for
this
population.
F
It's
able
to
also
assist
with
resource
identification
where
we
have
someone
who's
funded
for
resource
identification,
which
is
kind
of
a
centralized
hub
as
people
need
services
and
need
to
know
what
is
available,
then
they
can
kind
of
reach
out
to
that
person
and
know
what's
available
for
the
four
counties
we
do
repair
for
facilities
to
help
with
permanent
supportive
housing.
Again,
with
this
program,
we
can
do
tenant-based
rental
assistance
program
to
some
supportive
services
and
operating
cost,
and
so
that
helps
to
drive
down
what
that
affordability
amount
is
for
those
families.
F
So
the
agency
will
then
kind
of
tap
what
they
can
charge
them
for
rent
with
our
support
for
the
hub
of
funding.
This
is
going
to
be
the
biggest
amount
that
you'll
see
as
far
as
how
many
agreements
we
generally
have.
This
just
lists
the
agreements
that
we
have
every
year,
boli
centers
over
in
saint
pete,
gets
the
single
largest
amount
from
this
grant,
but
they
also
typically
serve
about
130
to
140
families
with
tenant-based
rental
assistance
vouchers.
F
We
did
an
rfp
for
new
construction
also
for
our
home
funds
this
year
and
we
set
out
to
fund
one
million
dollars,
I'm
happy
to
say
we
did
have
a
proposer
who
submitted
it's
archway
partners
and
they
are
the
lead
in
this.
They
are
partnering
with
tampa
housing
authority,
as
well
as
signature
property
development.
F
This
slide
really
just
kind
of
tells
you
where
we
are
we've
put
check
marks
where
we've
we've
really
accomplished.
Already
we're
here
today
for
the
just
to
kind
of
discuss
what
that
public
hearing
will
be.
I
think
what
is
also
missing.
I
apologize.
I
just
noticed
that
is
our
august
sixth
date.
Where
we
come
back
today.
F
We
will
accept
any
public
comments
that
there
are
and
then
we'll
add
them
to
the
action
plan
and
then
we'll
come
back
before
you
just
so
that
we
can
get
that
final
approval
from
council
so
that
we
can
submit
this
plan
to
hud
on
august
15th
and
then
for
all
of
the
new
programs.
We're
looking
to
start
for
october,
1st
for
our
upcoming
fiscal
year.
E
If
there
are
august
5th
we'll
be
back
before
you,
council,
with
the
resolution
and
the
full
plan
which
km
provided
copies
of
to
you,
depending
on
anything,
we
hear
tonight
or
modifications
that
we
might
need
to
make.
But
then
that
would
be
your
approval
next
thursday
for
transmittal
to
hud.
F
F
This
this
slide
is
really
not
part
of
your
presentation.
I
really,
as
I
was
preparing
for
tonight's
presentation,
wanted
to
kind
of
really
bring
some
of
these
numbers
before
you.
I
think
sometimes
it's
easy
for
us
to
talk
about
what's
affordable
and
what
isn't
and
as
I
was
preparing,
my
presentation
really
thought
about
how
we've
helped
families
come
through.
We
have
one
gentleman
came
through
our
program.
F
Somehow
kind
of
really
got
connected
to
a
lot
of
staff
here
and
found
a
family
and
really
wanted
to
own
his
own
home,
so
we've
assisted
him
from
our
homeless
program
and
now
we've
transitioned
him
on
the
other
end,
where
he's
actually
a
home
buyer,
and
so
now
he's
owned
his
own
home
and
now
him
and
his
family
live
there.
F
F
I
realize
everybody's
not
meant
to
be
a
homeowner,
but
with
homeownership
a
lot
of
times
we
are
getting
a
more
affordable
rate
than
we
are
with
rent,
and
so
I
just
like
to
put
more
of
a
humanistic
approach
to
it,
so
that
we
can
see
that
as
we're
going
through.
We
are
really
trying
to
change
lives
and
really
get
these
numbers
that
are
really
attainable
by
those
who
are
on
fixed
income
so
that
they
don't
feel
like
they
can't
achieve
something
that
that
really
is
out
there
for
them
to
achieve.
A
May
ask
a
question,
mr
chairman:
can
we
go
get
right
at
that
in
that,
where
you're,
comparing
the
rent
amount
to
the
mortgage
payment,
is
a
mortgage
payment,
including
the
taxes
and
the
insurance
on
that
payment
or
not.
F
A
F
No,
that's
okay.
That
concludes
my
presentation.
So
if
you
have
any
questions,
I'm
here
to
have
one.
G
Yes,
sir,
just
a
few
comments,
you
know
if
you
look
at
the
rents
in
the
city
of
tampa,
especially
in
the
last
90
days.
They're,
not
they're,
not
even
close
to
this
32
brother
32.
G
Have
gone
from
1500
to
1830
days,
several
complexes
they're,
not
offering
specials,
because
the
demand
is
so
high,
but
rents
in
the
city
of
tampa
within
the
city
limits
are
are
out
of
control.
I
overheard
a
gentleman
the
other
day
saying
his
landlord
wanted
to
raise
his
rent,
15
or
20
and
he's
moving
to
st
petersburg.
He
already
moved
so,
but
it's
just
it's
it's
insane
and
what's
interesting
is
different.
G
Different
conversation
is
a
bank
won't
approve
you
for
a
mortgage
of
800
900,
but
you
can
get
an
apartment
for
sixteen
hundred
dollars.
It
just
doesn't
make
any
sense.
So
when
we
look
at
you
know,
the
city
is
trying
to
help,
but
the
market
demand
is
out
of
control,
so
many
people
are
moving
here
that
I
just
I
don't
see
us
keeping
up,
especially
how
the
housing
market
is
it's
insane
and
and
even
the
rental
market.
G
It's
another
person
the
other
day
asking
if
they
could
find
a
one
bedroom
in
south
tampa-
and
this
is
a
person
with
a
real
estate
background-
is
struggling
to
find
a
place
down
in
south
tampa.
So
it's
just
story
after
story
regarding
housing.
I
I
just
don't
know
how
we're
going
to
keep
up.
Thank
you.
H
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
thank
you
abby
and
chaon.
So
can
two
things
ken
the
mayor
proposed
when
she
first
got
elected
with
great
support
from
council
to
to
build
over
the
eight
years.
Hopefully
that
she'll
be
in
office,
twenty
thousand
twenty
thousand
new,
affordable
units
or
to
help
to
help
build
only
10.
I.
E
H
E
So
kaon
and
I
actually
met
on
this
on
monday,
with
our
teams
just
to
kind
of
get
together.
You
know,
I
think
it's
interesting,
because
it's
not
a
barometer
you're,
going
to
see
change
very
rapidly,
given
that
it
takes
18
to
24
months
to
permit
and
construct
and
occupy
something
so
we're
off
to
we're
off
to
a
good
start
and
with
projects
such
as
the
rome
yard
and
the
army,
navy
store
and
others
that
are
coming
online
as
well
as
this
year,
you
may
be
familiar.
E
The
city
has
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
the
county
for
the
9
tax
credit
that
is
allocated
from
florida,
housing
finance
corporation.
This
is
our
year
for
that
nine
percent
application
selection
and
we're
in
that
rfp
process.
Right
now,
in
the
next
few
years,
we
will
again
have
two
more
of
those
nine
percent
projects.
E
So
it
is
a
combination
of
that
we're
also
looking
at
other
opportunities
for
public-private
partnerships
that
will
be
coming
forward
and
then,
through
our
implementation
of
our
infill
program
in
field
phase,
one
and
currently
infill
phase
two
was
just
awarded
phase
two,
a
which
was
another
14
single
family
lots.
E
We
have
another
selection
of
lots
that
we're
going
to
be
working
to
rfp
again,
so
we're
coming
at
this
from
a
multiple
of
facets,
not
just
new
construction,
because,
as
you
know,
in
our
construction
rate
of
even
just
general
market
rate,
we
don't
build
that
many
units
in
that
time
period.
So
we're
looking
at
this
from
a
number
of
different
approaches
and
we're
getting
it
underway.
E
We've
had
many
come
online
with
the
west
river
project
that
tampa
housing
authority
is
doing
that
mercy.
Oaks,
that's
finishing!
Madison
highlands,
that's
currently
under
construction,
our
inventory
is,
is
definitely
growing,
but
it's
not
something
you're
going
to
see
changing
on
a
daily
or
monthly
or
even
yearly
basis
just
to
the
pure
duration
of
construction.
E
So
we
are
that
can
come
in
the
form
of
our
owner-occupied
rehab
and
ensuring
that
units
are
remaining
affordable
and
remaining
safe
and
and
habitable
in
a
way
for
our
families
to
continue
to
reside
in
them.
We're
also
looking
at
existing
apartment
complexes
that
have
inventory
and
the
potential
to
activate
some
of
that
inventory
into
affordable
units,
so
I
think
you'll
be
seeing
that
being
explored
as
well.
I
know
that's
a
long-winded
answer,
but
it's
a
big
amount.
E
E
We
are
to
the
task
and
we're
gonna
hit
that
goal.
H
Well,
I'm
sure
I
can
speak
on
behalf
of
council
and
as
council's
representative
on
the
affordable
housing
advisory
council
ahack,
you
know
they
were
all
we're
all
supportive
of
of
all
of
these
ideas.
H
E
There's
just
over
800
there
affordable,
but
again
yes,
there's
over
1100
close
to
1100
total
and
that's
a
mix
of
housing,
there's
town
homes
and
there's
other
multi-family
in
there
some
condo
as
well,
I
believe,
but
it
would
be
800.
So
that
would
be
a
large
trench
when
that
that
comes
online.
H
I
One
thing
we
also,
I
think
have
to
do-
is
look
at
the
net
numbers,
so
the
north
boulevard
homes,
how
many
units
were
there
before
and
then
how
many
are
we
going
to
get
from
those
two
projects
that
replaced
it
together
and
then,
although
tampa
park,
apartments
was
privately
owned.
That's
what
another
700
and
something,
and
so
where
are
we
kind
of
net
compared
to
compared
to
those
two
big
projects
that
went
offline.
E
E
I
My
numbers
probably
won't
be
right,
but
I
remember
something
like
1200
at
north
boulevard
and
700
or
800
at
tampa
park.
So
that's
like
2
000
that
we
have
to
replace
without
so
we
went
negative
and
now
we're
going
back
positive
again
trying
to
catch
up
and
then
we'll
go
positive
after
that.
I
The
next
thing
is,
and
you
kind
of
touch
some
of
these
things,
but
just
to
reiterate
for
anybody
watching,
I
think
we're
all
friends
with
karen
clay,
who's,
a
disability
activist,
and
she
always
wants
us
to
add
the
word
accessibility
for
karen
and-
and
you
know
all
the
many
other
people
out
here
out
in
the
community,
for
whom
that's
a
huge
issue,
as
karen
reminds
us
all
of
us
will
need
accessibility
at
some
point.
I
Yeah,
I
think
it's
not
it's
not
just
yeah.
I
think
the
way
she
talks
about
it
is
that
it's
not
just
it's
not
just
for
specific
ada
requirements
for
certain
disabilities.
It's
it's
making
sure
they're
accessible
for
seniors
and
others
are
there.
Is
there
a
certain
allocation
for
for
certain
ada
categories?
Sorry,
I'm
not
an
expert
on
this,
but
and
and
or
how
are
there
any
accessibility
features
that
are
put
in
any
of
these
units.
E
F
To
that
yeah
I
was
just
going
to
jump
in
so
this
year,
because
our
ship
allocation-
it
won't,
come
out
of
our
federal
pot,
but
because
our
ship
allocation
is
a
little
bit
larger
this
year.
We're
actually
going
to
put
about
a
half
a
million
dollars
towards
special
needs
projects
for
own
occupied
rehab,
also,
knowing
that
we
can
put
some
of
that
language
that
you're
referring
to
in
multi-family
agreements,
but
thinking
about
those
who
are
really
aging
in
place.
F
How
do
we
kind
of
get
them
to
be
more
comfortable
and
so
we're
putting
about
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
that
rfa
for
unoccupied
rehab
is
not
yet
completed,
but
we
will
be
putting
one
out
for
different
agencies
to
be
able
to
help
support
that.
I
I
I
E
E
Right
and
then
madison
highlands,
that's
currently
under
construction
has
120
units
and
then
they're
preparing
to
do
phase
two
of
that
development
as
well.
They
got
some
additional
funding
and
they're
they're
pursuing
that.
So
there
are-
and
what's
nice
about
that
is
also
gets
mixed
with
you
know,
non-senior
and,
and
that
allows
a
lot
of
times
for
those
social
relationships
and
partnerships
to
form
between
the
residences
in
those
areas.
I
Great
two
other
quick
questions.
The
budget
you
showed
it
doesn't
include
any
cra
money
right.
So
the
story,
the
cra
money
just
for
anybody
watching
cra
funding
for
housing,
affordable
housing
is
going
to
be
on
top
of
all
that.
So
that's
in
the
separate
cra
meetings
and
then
the
big
question
you
you
hit
on
this
in
different
ways
in
your
presentation.
But
the
big
question,
a
lot
of
folks
in
the
community
are
asking
is
what
are
you
all
doing?
Different
and-
and
although
this
is
the
mayor's
plans,.
I
Plan,
I
think
that
you
know,
city
council
has
been
supportive
and
the
things
you
all
are
doing
here,
but
the
public
looks
at
it
as
all
of
our
plan.
You
know
what
are
we
doing
and
the
big
question
they
have
is:
what
are
we
doing
different
than
before?
What
have
we
done
differently
in
the
last
two
years?
I
What
are
we
planning
on
doing
differently
going
forward
and-
and
you
answered
in
long
detail,
but
is
there
a
kind
of
a
short
answer
to
that
that
we
could
give
the
public
on
you
know,
what's
the
theme
of
what
we're
doing
differently
and
how.
F
How
do
we
go
to
them
to
bring
the
help
to
them
if
they
can't
come
to
us
and
so
we're
looking
to
do
a
lot
more
community
engagement
so
that
we
can
get
everybody
who
really
needs
the
program
to
the
program.
J
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
appreciate
that
you
know,
and
one
thing
to
build
on
that
that
that
I
was
talking
with
some
parents
over
at
the
mcdonald's
training
center.
Recently
such
a
great
tampa
institution
is
independent
living
for
people
with
disabilities,
intellectual
disabilities,
developmental
disabilities,
for
you
know,
you're
you're,
a
parent
raising
somebody
with
special
needs,
autism
down
syndrome
and
intellectual
disability,
cerebral
palsy,
whatever
it
may
be,
and
you're
gonna
have
that
inevitable
date.
When
they're
they're
gonna
move
out,
and
do
you
look
at
a
group
home?
J
My
brother
lives
in
a
group
home
new
horizons
group
home
that
my
late
father
helped
build
like
25
something
years
ago.
He
lives
there
half
the
week,
the
other
half
the
week
with
my
mother,
but
not
everybody
is
as
lucky
as
my
brother,
juan.
So
that's
something
that
that
you
know
has
to
be
uniquely
when
you're
talking
about
special
needs.
You
have
senior
citizens,
you
have
you
know
people
with
physical
disabilities
etc.
But
what
about
those
people
with
intellectual
disabilities
whose
parents
either
were
never
able
to
care
for
them?
J
We
could
no
longer
can
care
for
them.
They're
30
years
old,
their
parents
are
65
70,
looking
at
the
september
the
october,
the
november
of
their
years.
What
about
that?
That's
something
that
that
you
really
really
have
to
hit
on
and
I'd
love
to,
and
I
can
us.
I
know
my
wonderful
aide
brandon
is
watching
brandon.
Let's
set
something
up
on
that.
J
If
you
don't
mind,
you
know,
but
for
me
that
this
affordable
housing
crisis
and
workforce
crisis
that
we're
looking
at
is
just
kind
of,
as
as
the
saying
goes,
that
it
seems
these
days
that
the
the
you
know,
the
the
middle
classes
and
closer
to
the
top.
It's
closer
to
the
bottom
and
people
desperately
trying
to
get
into
the
middle
class
are
finding
it
harder
and
harder
to
get
there.
J
That's
what
you
know
the
the
apprenticeship
ordinance
was
all
about
trying
to
create
that
pathway
to
the
middle
class
for
people
and
sort
of
a
pushing
back,
and
this
is
on
a
larger
scale,
but
on
something
that
we've
seen
for
40
years.
I
would
respectfully
stay
in
this
country
where
we
turn
our
backs
on
working
people,
and
we
turn
our
backs
on
on
government
programs
that
that
and
and
laws
and
regulations
to
help
working
people.
J
Look
at
the
fact
that,
even
after
the
affordable
care
act,
we
still
have
30
million
americans
without
health
insurance
who,
if
they
get
sick
right
now,
can't
afford
to
go
to
a
doctor,
including
in
the
state
of
florida,
where
three
quarters
of
a
million
people
don't
have
health
insurance,
because
we
don't
take
medicaid
expansion
money.
The
minimum
wage
buys
inflation-adjusted
dollars,
40
percent
less
than
it
bought
in
1968..
J
The
average
ceo
earned
about
30
times
with
the
average
worker
in
1950.
Today,
it's
about
two
300
times
that
you
know.
We
continue
to
see
that
that
pulling
away
from
the
middle
class,
pulling
away
from
the
working
class
and
blue
collar
folks
and
pulling
and
and
continue
to
have
what
michael
harrington
called
the
other
america
further
and
further
separated
and
our
collective
efforts
to
help
those
folks
are
maligned,
disputed
and
and
continually
attacked.
J
C
Just
because
you
have
a
roof
over,
your
head
doesn't
make
it
a
community.
Are
we
also
taking
into
factors
we
hear
this
over
and
over
again
food
deserts?
Are
we
going
to
hopefully
get
the
grocery
stores
close
to
these
affordable
housings?
Are
we
going
to
make
sure
that
schools
are
open?
Look,
look
at
the
west
river
you
have
dunbar
and
just
elementaries
hillsborough
county
is,
is
thinking
about
closing
down
one
of
those
schools
when
we
get
the
the
flood
of
people
moving
back
to
that
area,
are
we
going
to
have
schools
available?
C
E
And
councilman
cetra,
if
I
may
just
respond
to
that-
I
mean
I
think
from
my
experience
in
the
the
planning
world.
Of
that
you
know
I
never
look
at
a
unit
as
an
affordable
unit.
I
look
at
a
unit
as
a
home
I
mean,
and
it
it
takes
all
kind
of
homes
to
build
our
community
and
a
lot
of
times.
E
You
know
kayon
and
I
have
even
talked
about
the
nimbyism
and
some
of
that
that
goes
along
with
affordable
housing
and
how,
when
we
we
have
a
lot
of
it
in
our
city
and
you
would
never
even
know
you
were
right
next
door
to
it.
So
I
mean
that's,
that's
our
goal
is
to
have
that
integrated
and
just
be
a
part
of
our
community.
Like
any
other
home
I
mean
that's,
we
never
even
and
talk
about
it.
E
I
guess
in
that
sense,
because
we
see
it
as
just
being
a
part
of
our
our
community
and
and
fitting
in
whether
it's
rented
or
owned,
or
it
shouldn't
matter
those
services
and
those
neighborhood
serving
uses
and
and
the
items,
schools
and
parks
that
make
us
a
community
should
be
present
throughout
our
city
to
serve
all
of
our
residents.
J
Now
I
wanted
to
add
something
to
that.
If
I
may,
and
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
for
the
indulgence
you
know,
one
thing
that
that
I
think
abby
has
touched
on
is
the
idea
of
affordable
housing
and,
and
you
know,
being
in
in
different
kinds
of
neighborhoods
something
else
that
we've
seen
it's
really
come
out
of
the
closet,
so
to
speak
politically
in
the
last
year
or
two
and
it
just
it.
J
Just
angers
me
and
frustrates
me
is
the
demonization
of
workforce
and
affordable
housing
by
certain
political
figures
who
make
racial
and
cultural
appeals
that
are
that
are,
I
want
to
say,
they're
beneath
us,
but
they're
not
right,
because
a
lot
of
people
a
lot
of
people
go
for
that.
But
you
know
we
have
to
fight
that.
We
have
to
fight
that.
J
I
remember
one
time
talking
in
my
district
to
some
folks
on
some
apartments
that
were
coming
and
they
were
frustrated
and
this
and
that-
and
they
said
well,
is
the
is
the
city
gonna
gonna
pay
for
some?
What
was
it?
They
said
for
some
video
cameras
because
of
crime
going
up,
I
said,
buy
your
own.
Damn
video
cameras,
you
know
what
I'm
saying:
crime's,
not
gonna,
go
up.
That's
just
you
know.
J
Things
like
that
are
founded
upon
I'll,
be
diplomatic
bias
and
we
need
to
fight
that,
which
is
that
everybody
deserves
a
helping
hand.
Everybody
deserves
that
ladder
up
and
and
affordable
and
workforce
housing
is,
is
part
of
that.
But
just
you
know
tragic
how
these
appeals
over
the
last
few
years,
especially
it's
been
with
us
for
a
heck
of
a
long
time,
but
you
know
things
that
people
used
to
whisper
now
they
yell
and
it's
that's
another
thing
that
folks
got
to
struggle
with
so
just
wanted
to
say
that.
Thank
you.
B
B
I
think
some
of
the
folks
that
were
in
the
van
had
some
eye-opening
experience
in
what
they
saw.
B
When
I
look
at
the
housing
programs
I
look
at,
why
is
it
not
working
is
fast
enough.
What's
the
holdback,
you
know
what
like
about
a
month
ago,
we
all
had
a
conversation
in
the
conference
room
about
some
of
those
hallbacks
keon
you're
right.
You
know.
If,
if
I
don't
know
about
something,
how
can
I
better
myself?
If
I
don't
know
our
community
engagement
is
very
bad
when
it
comes
to
affordable
housing.
B
B
B
B
B
So
that's
what
I'm
looking
for,
I'm
looking
for
the
engagement
looking
for
the
middle
piece,
but
when
I
look
at
some
of
these
numbers,
I
still
don't
see
where
it's
going
to
be
a
driving
force
to
help
a
lot
of
people,
because
a
lot
of
this
is
subsidized
dollars.
Gentlemen,
a
lot
of
it
is
subsidized
dollars,
and
then
we
miss
that
middle
piece
that
mr
vieira
sometimes
talk
about.
B
If
we
don't
fill
in
the
gaps,
we
have
gaps
and
we
talk
about
housing
stock.
Well,
I
look
at
some
of
the
documented
apartment
buildings
that
we
have.
We
should
be
trying
to
have
meeting
with
some
of
these
developers
to
see
how
we
can
come
up
with
a
plan
to
how
we
can
help
with
any
tax
abatement.
Maybe
some
other
incentives
to
work.
Maybe
they
can
buy
columbus
court
of
central
court.
B
Those
buildings
are
very,
very
old
if
johnson
kind
of
court.
Well,
it's
called
silver
oaks.
Now
those
those
places
need
to
be
developed
and
maybe
go
up
a
little
bit
more
because
the
density
now
that
I
asked
you
to
stop
mr
dean
from
now
people
have
good
plumbing
like
timber
falls,
doesn't
have
mr
vieira.
B
B
B
B
You
don't
have
enough
workers
to
get
it
ready
with
some
of
the
programs.
You
already
got
existed.
That's
why
we
talk
about.
We
have
to
make
sure
that
you
have
workers
to
get
out
there
to
the
people.
So
my
thing
is
okay.
How
do
we
communicate
to
the
people
if
you
ain't
got
the
workers
in
your
department
to
get
the
communication
out
to
the
people?
B
B
Well,
all
the
cdg
money.
We
need
to
be
having
a
a
non-profit
to
go.
Do
a
survey
of
this
whole
area
to
see
what
who
owns
all
these
lots
that
are
just
sitting
why
they
just
sit
grass
growing
all
up,
no
one's
taking
care
of
them.
What
are
they
waiting
on?
Are
you?
Are
you
eventually
gonna
build
up?
What
are
you
doing
you
waiting
for
a
gold
mine,
some
of
these
old
buildings
that
are
sitting
let's
go
out
and
talk
to
the
owners
about
these
old
buildings?
B
That's
how
we
move
the
needle
a
little
bit
being
innovative,
say:
okay,
we
need
a
person
or
an
outsourcer
to
do
this.
You
talk
about
east
temple.
Well,
we
need
a
plan
for
each
temple.
You
know
the
cra
is
going
to
have
a
speech,
but
we
need
a
true
plan
for
all
of
it,
zoning
wise
for
an
overlay
to
see
well.
Do
we
want
a
a
place
where
entertainment
make
sure
you
where
these
things
go?
Nice
people
just
come
and
put
stuff
in
there
and
the
place
still
looks
a
mess.
B
B
So
I
think,
with
the
council's
looking,
especially
what
I'm
looking
for
when
you
talk
about
rehab,
since
we
had
extra
dollars
of
dollars
that
we
had
allocated
for
that,
and
you
had
those
mini
grants.
I
told
you
about
mr
john
needs
just
a
roof.
He
may
need
a
ceiling,
but
now
he
don't
have
to
go
through
20
pieces
of
of
an
application
to
try
to
meet
every
criteria
any
78
45.
I
don't
know
what
that
that
piece
of
paper
is
miss
abbey.
I
don't
know
where
that's
at
baby.
B
I
don't
know,
I
can't
you
know
so
I'll
tell
you
I'm
just
going
to
give
on
up
in
whatever
it's
going
to
be
going
to
be
see.
That's
what
I
hear
that's
what
I
hear,
but
I
don't
want
to
hear
that
anymore.
I
want
to
hear
programs,
even
if
there
are
many
programs
that
say:
okay,
miss
suzy
only
needs
ac
unit.
B
B
These
are
the
things
I'm
talking
about
see.
It's
not
always
the
big
things
that
make
the
difference.
It's
the
small
things
that
make
it
happen,
the
small
things
because
mr
john
is
so
happy.
If
I,
if
I
could
just
get
my
students
so
happy-
I
maybe
they
finally
gave
me
a
h.
I
ain't
have
nothing
I'm
barely
making,
but
they
were
able
to.
I
was
able
to
sign
this
paper
here
with
a
few
things,
and
I
was
it'll
get
me
an
ac
they've
have
it
in
my
house.
B
These
are
the
things
I'm
talking
about.
Folks,
the
small
things
will
make
the
difference.
So
these
203ks
people
don't
know
about
that.
They
don't
know
what
that
is
a
little
phone
rehab
or
these
on
these
houses.
You,
don't
you
don't
need
a
brand
new
build
a
brand
new
house.
There
are
a
lot
of
houses
all
over
in
east,
tampa
the
north
end
of
town
that
we
should
be
looking
at
again.
B
Let's
find
a
way
that
legally
we
can
do.
We
need
to
do
to
be
able
to
obtain
those
kind
of
properties,
fix
them
up
and
put
people
in
them
or
flip
them
back
bring
the
money
back
into
the
trust
for
what
we
need
to
do
out
of
the
box.
Thinking,
folks,
that's
all
I'm
asking!
I
know
I
know
we
don't
have
a
lot,
but
we've
got
to
find
a
way
to
make
some
of
these
out
of
mind.
Things
come
to
reality,
and
these
are
simple
things
again:
they're
the
small
things.
H
H
Because
we
we
have
the
will,
we
just
don't
have
a
whole
lot
of
money,
and
this
came
up
at
the
ahak
community
meeting
the
other
day
last
week-
and
we
were
talking
about
this
80
80
million
dollars
is
80.
What
is
it
80
million
81
million
dollars
that
the
city
will
be
getting
and
it
does
not
seem
to
have
a
whole
lot
of
strings
attached
and
it
could
definitely
be
used
for
affordable
housing.
H
H
Everybody
wants
a
piece
of
that
money,
but
I
can't
imagine
a
better
place
to
spend
half
of
it
than
on
affordable
housing,
because
then
we're
really
we're
really
putting
our
money
where
our
mouth
is
and-
and
I
don't
have
all
the
answers
on
on
how
we
could
use
that
money
and
specifically
what
programs
and
that
sort
of
thing,
but
I'm
sure
that
miss
henderson
and
ms
feely
and
all
the
people
that
work
with
them
can
come
up
with
a
lot
of
creative
and
fantastic
programs,
not
just
programs
for
today,
but
programs
to
that
will
roll
over
and
k
on.
H
We
were
talking
about
this
in
a
meeting
the
other
day
because
I
don't
believe
in
just
taking.
Oh
here's
a
bunch
of
money,
let's
fix
it
today!
No,
let's,
let's
create
programs
that
carry
over
and
that
allow
that
money
to
roll
on
and
roll
on
and
roll
on,
and
continue
to
help
and
support
this
community
for
many
many
decades
to
come.
H
We
put
40
million
dollars.
Put
our
money
where
our
mouth
is
will
not
only
will
get
noticed
all
across
the
country.
I
think
that
I
think
that
it
could
probably
generate
a
whole
slew
of
private
contributions,
people
who
want
to
match
it
and
step
up
and
say:
okay,
the
city
of
tampa
is
serious
about
this.
H
We
could
put
it
into
that
that
trust,
that
housing,
trust
and
and
go
great
places,
so
you
know
I
know
we
need
to
work
with
the
mayor
and
work
with
the
administration
on
this,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
I
got
a
feeling
that
seven
of
us
are
going
to
have
a
very,
very
big
word
in
how
that
80
million
dollars
is
spent,
and
I
think
that
there's
nothing
better,
that
we
could
spend
half
of
it
on
than
this.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
I
Maybe
I'll
have
a
second
last
word,
but
one
I
asked
the
question
earlier:
what's
the
public's
asking
what's
changed
in
the
last
two
years
and
I
there
are
two
big
things
that
have
changed
one
is
that
there's
a
priority
of
focusing
on
the
difficult
issues
like
affordable
housing
and
instead
of
tearing
down
affordable
housing
and
building
market
rate
housing
number
two
is
there's
a
focus
on
focusing
on
the
the
difficult
things
that
somebody
said
this
morning:
don't
always
lead
to
a
ribbon
cutting
or
press
conference,
but
they're
important
issues
that
have
to
be
addressed
with
money
and
time,
unlike
frivolous
things
like
12
million
dollar
boathouses,
so
that
those
are
two
big
things
that
have
changed.
I
It
is
a
humanitarian
issue,
a
social
issue,
but
it
also
is
a
business
issue
and
it
is
an
economic
development
issue,
and
you
know
I've
sat
on
the
the
board
executive
committee
of
the
tampa
chamber
of
florida
chamber
and
we
talk
about
issues
like
this,
and
you
have
to
look
at
the
economic
numbers
and-
and
the
council
allowed
me
a
few
months
ago
to
present
the
tampa
scorecard.com
with
the
dean
of
the
college
of
business
from
usf
and
what
what
he
says
is
our
strategy.
I
Our
economic
strategy
cannot
be
to
say,
thank
god,
for
miami,
and
what
that
means
is
that
of
the
top
six
cities
in
the
state.
We
come
in
fifth
on
almost
every
economic
number,
and
why
is
that
important?
As
he
says,
in
usf,
business
school
is
in
the
middle
of
all
kinds
of
decisions
that
are
being
made
by
companies
that
are
looking
to
locate
here,
small
and
large,
and
the
companies
these
days
have
full
access
to
information.
I
They
have
access
to
to
the
best
data
on
our
community
better
than
sometimes
we
see
that's,
why
it's
important
for
us
to
see
the
real
data
and
what
they
see
is
that
our
our
community
has
not
performed
as
well
as
it
should
have
in
the
last
10
years,
and
it
especially
not
performed
well
compared
to
our
peers
or
compared
to
our
our
aspirational
group
of
peers
and
and
a
couple
of
things
holding
us
back.
I
One
is
our
poverty
rate
and
another
is
our
home
ownership
rate
and,
if
I
remember
correctly,
state
average
is
about
65
percent
home
ownership.
St
pete,
just
to
put
in
context
is
58
percent.
Tampa
is
48
and
I
think
african-american
homeownership
is
about
42..
And
so
what
happens?
Is
these
big
companies,
amazon
or
whatever
they'll
look
at
our
community
and
they
see
these
numbers
and
sure
they
can
look
at
one
hand
and
say
well,
maybe
we
can
get
cheap
labor,
but
what
they
really
do
is
look
and
see.
You
know
where's
a
well-rounded
community.
I
We
will
make
an
investment
and
move
to.
If
you
don't
have
a
well-rounded
community,
what
it
means
is
you
have
to
give
subsidies
you
all
remember.
10
or
so
years
ago,
the
county
commission-
and
I
argued
against
this,
but
the
county
commission
gave
6.25
million
dollars
to
bass
pro
shops
to
locate
in
the
brandon
area.
And
what
happens
you
subsidize
companies?
I
If
you,
if
you
don't,
have
the
right
product,
it's
better
all
the
top
innovative
economic
development
people
say
we
need
to
build
a
community
that
will
attract
companies
that
we
don't
have
to
subsidize
and
the
way
they
justify
again.
I
didn't
agree
with
it,
but
the
way
they
justified
bass,
pro
shops,
we
put
6.25
million
and
then
over
time,
we'll
get
paid
property
taxes.
Well,
the
people
that
we
pay.
I
I
If
you,
if
you
look
at
the
data
and
everything
it's
it's
difficult,
sometimes
for
the
for
really
smart
people
to
move,
because
they
don't
see
the
numbers
they
should,
and
so
the
bottom
line
on
the
second
talk
forever,
but
is
that
it
is
a
social
issue.
It's
a
humanitarian
issue,
but
it
really
also
is
a
business
issue
and
an
economic
development
issue.
If
we
do
not
address
these
issues,
by
putting
a
relatively
small
amount
of
money
in
our
economy
will
not
take
off
the
way
it
should.
Thank
you.
B
Look,
ladies,
let
me
say
this
that
that
character
is
already
hit
correct.
We
still
waiting
on
that.
Do
we
have
that
already?
He
cares.
B
D
B
B
E
I
I
do
not
believe
so,
I
believe
we're
getting
a
first
allocation,
but
that's
not
I
mean
in
what
we're
presenting
to
you
tonight.
These
are
our
federal
funds
that
are
coming
in
for
our
housing
programs.
That's
a
second
pot
of
money
that
will
be
handled
differently.
B
D
Yes,
mr
chairman,
thank
you
very
much.
Martin
shelby
city
council
attorney
council.
I
I
would
just
ask
before
you
take
the
public
comment
for
the
purposes
of
the
record.
If
you
could
just
waive
the
rules
to
adopt
the
cmt
guidelines
that
have
been
set
forth
in
the
notice
and
in
the
introduction.
B
Away
was
that
was
mr
manascalco,
then,
mr
vieira,
okay,
all
right
so
mr
vieira
and
mr
carlson
on
any
opposed
motion,
carry
public
comment.
Anyone
on
the
second
floor
to
talk
on
the
side.
D
Thank
you
in
the
meantime,
are
there
any
people
who
are
registered.
B
All
right
we'll
give
mr
shelby
a
few
seconds
to
run
down
that
just
so,
we
can
keep
that
house
clean
going
on.
A
D
Mr
chairman,
martin
shelby,
there
is
nobody
to
speak
on
the
second
floor.
Thank.
B
H
A
No,
we
will
appear
before
you
this
time
next
week
with
a
resolution
for
adopting
this
plan
and
approving
its
submission
to
hud
at
that
time,
we'll
we'll
have
the
proper
formalities
to
get
that
done.
Thank
you.
It's.
