Very
much
would
we
like
to
open
items,
number
62
and
63
together
as
they
are
going
to
be
heard
in
total
one
right
after
the
other.
So
let's,
let's
open
them
together.
If
that's
all
right
with
everybody.
D
Sir,
thank
you,
sir
good
afternoon,
dennis
rojero
chief
financial
officer.
If
I
can
have
the
powerpoint
presentation
on
screen,
please
there
we
are.
Thank
you
these
next
two
items
again
number
62
and
63:
ask
for
your
approval
for
our
next
step
of
the
pipes
master
plan
series,
20
22
bond,
we've
briefed
each
of
you
again.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
interest
very
good.
We'll
start
with
item
number
62
and
a
brief
recap.
D
Council
will
recall
a
few
years
ago.
In
2019
we
did
a
wide
array
of
community
engagement
and
outreach
and
based
on
that
city
council
approved
a
20-year
2.9
billion
dollar
water
and
waste
water
infrastructure
master
plan.
This
plan
is
exclusively
for
the
pipes
program
and
I'll
speak
in
a
bit
more
detail
on
that.
In
just
a
moment,.
D
This
plan
included,
for
the
first
time,
you'll
recall
a
base
charge
that
will
go
up
incrementally
over
time.
Very
importantly,
in
an
effort
not
to
leave
anyone
behind,
we
also
instituted
a
customer
assistance
program,
helping
low-income
households
and
I'll
remind
you
we're
funding
that
program
not
from
this,
but
from
the
general
fund.
At
your
request,
councilman
goods.
We
are
going
to
amplify
our
communication
associated
with
that
customer
assistance
program,
letting
the
community
know
and
continually
reminding
them
of
that
available
assistance.
D
D
We
also
anticipate
as
you'll
see
on
this
next
slide.
We
will
continue
to
compare
favorably
with
those
other
local
governments.
This
is
our
anticipated
rate
in
2027
and
it's
still
less
than
about
eight
other
local
governments
current
rate,
and
I
would
I
would
venture
a
guess
that
at
least
some
of
these
other
local
governments
are
going
to
increase
their
rates
within
the
next
five
years.
D
Based
on
the
master
plan
of
plan
approval,
excuse
me
in
2020
july
2020
we
initiated
and
council
approved
a
350
million
dollar
debt
issuance.
It
was,
as
you
can
see
here
and
as
we've
shared
with
you
very
well
received
by
the
market
and
by
the
industry.
It
was
so
well
received
that,
despite
being
in
the
face
of
a
global
pandemic,
all
three
of
our
ratings
for
this
system
by
all
three
major
rating
agencies
were
brought
to
the
very
highest
attainable
aaa.
D
D
I'm
also
pleased
to
share,
as
you
see,
on
the
slide
less
than
two
years
after
this
bond
issuance,
we
have
spent
or
put
under
contract
nearly
100
percent
of
the
funding
in
its
entirety.
96
in
the
run-up
to
this
presentation,
we
briefed
and
presented
to
all
three
rating
agencies
and
I
infer
from
our
discussions
with
them.
Well,
I
don't
infer
it,
they
stated
it.
This
is,
unusually
unusually
good
progress
in
this
environment,
getting
all
that
funding
committed
getting
that
funding
downrange
and
the
projects
happening.
D
D
So
what
are
we
asking
of
council
we're
asking
these
items?
We're
asking
you
to
approve
the
project
list
which
I'll
speak
to
in
more
detail
in
just
a
moment.
We're
asking
you
to
allow
us
to
do
a
negotiated
sale
based
on
the
complexity
of
these
transactions
and
the
volatility
in
the
market
in
simplest
terms,
a
negotiated
sale
allows
us
the
best
opportunity
to
hit
the
market
at
the
right
time
for
us
to
mitigate
the
interest
rate
risk
and
the
volatility
again.
I'll
reiterate,
the
principle
is
not
to
exceed
350
million
dollars.
D
D
D
Typically,
these
are
30-year
bonds,
but
again
in
an
effort
at
guarding
against
the
interest
rate
risk.
We
want
to
be
able
to
have
the
flexibility
to
go
35
years
out.
We
think
it's
a
good
idea
to
build
that
flexibility
into
this
issue
and
importantly
that
last
bullet
the
optional
redemption
first
call
dates
about
11
years.
D
In
simplest
terms,
this
allows
us
to
refinance
our
mortgage
if
rates
go
back
down
and
council
will
recall
in
the
last
few
years,
with
these
historic
interest
rate
reductions,
we've
done
just
that,
and
we've
saved
tens
of
millions
of
dollars.
We
want
to
make
sure
the
rates
look
like
they're
going
up
now,
but
down
the
line.
If
they
come
down,
we
want
to
take
advantage
of
that
refinancing.
D
Let
me
speak
to
a
little
bit
about
the
volatility
going
on
right
now
and
what
we're
experiencing
you
see
here.
Yeah
apologize
for
the
closed
captioning,
but
you
see
here
what
has
happened
in
less
than
two
years
since
our
issuance
in
2020.,
nearly
a
two
percent
increase
in
these
rates
since
july
of
2020
and
nearly
a
one
percent
increase
in
just
the
last
two
months.
D
D
D
D
E
He
made
three
points
and
best
picture
of
that
new
project
that
on
rogers
golf
course.
Yes,.
D
D
Certainly,
thank
you,
sir
all
right.
Thank
you
and
again,
these
are
the
major
projects
unamended
by
what
we'll
discuss
at
the
end
of
the
presentation.
D
D
D
As
we
have
shared
with
council
in
our
briefings,
this
is
what
we
anticipate.
Our
debt
profile
will
look
like
after
this
issuance.
This
issuance
is
the
dark
blue
at
the
top.
You
can
see
we're
doing
what
we've
done
before,
what
they
call
wrapping
the
debt
around
existing
debt.
So
we
end
up
with
a
nice
smooth
payment
plan
you
see
at
the
top.
There
no
surprises
very
predictable
and
a
very
good
debt
service
profile.
D
Like
to
talk
about
the
junior
lean
pledge,
of
course
we
briefed
you
on
that
this.
Let
me
let
me
first
start
to
say
we
don't
plan
on
issuing
any
debt
under
this
right
now,
but
this
is
and
I'll
point
out
that
third
excuse
me
that
fourth
bullet
point
first
safeguarding
our
triple
a
ratings
going
into
the
future.
Of
course,
there's
a
lot
of
volatility.
There's
a
lot
of
uncertainty.
I'll
actually
speak
more
about
that
during
my
mid-year
presentation.
D
Of
course,
if
we
needed
that
we'd
come
to
you
first,
but
if
we
did
need
that
we
could
subordinate
that
debt
and
keep
it
separate.
Apart
from
the
plan,
we've
got
going
on
right
now
it
protects
our
aaa
ratings
across
the
board,
because
they'll
be
subordinate
the
current
debt
issue
and
the
plan
debt
issuance
will
stay
as
the
primary
less
risky
so
with
a
higher
rating.
D
It
also
you
see
at
the
bottom.
We
have
some
commitments
under
the
state
revolving
loan.
Excuse
me
state
revolving
fund
program
that
if
interest
rates
come
down
enough,
we'd
like
to
get
rid
of
those-
and
this
may
be
an
opportunity
to
do
just
that-
to
make
a
long
story
short.
This
is
seen
by
credit
rating
agencies
as
good
planning.
It's
good
financial
planning.
D
And
again
so
much
weighs
on
the
credit
rating,
the
credit
ratings
by
the
agencies
because
of
the
cost
increases
associated
with
lower
credit
ratings,
and
you
see
a
recap
here
in
bold.
That's
where
we're
at.
I
am
happy
to
announce
that
all
three
credit
rating
agencies
have
now
affirmed
those
ratings.
We
have
to
do
it
every
single
time
and
in
less
than
two
years
they
have
affirmed
those
ratings
with
a
stable
outlook,
again
further
proof
that
this
plan
is
going
forward
at
an
acceptable-
and,
I
would
say
excellent
rate.
D
E
Well,
thank
you
for
addressing
the
what
I
consider
the
getting
to
the
people,
I'm
hoping
that
we
talked
about.
You
know
when
people
open
that
water
bill
up,
they
just
look
at
the
dollar
amount
at
the
top.
They
don't
look
at
nothing
else.
E
I
hope
there's
a
way
that
we
can
do
something
with
that,
so
people
can
see
what's
going
on
making
sure
that
those
neighborhood
association
meetings,
especially
those
seniors
who
don't
know
to
know,
I
guess
again,
I
got
to
give
myself
a
spring
because
I
didn't
do
it
for
my
mother,
so
I
knew-
and
she
asked
about
that.
So
we
got
to
make
sure
that,
if
it's
available
for
those
seniors
they
they
take
advantage
of
it
because
they
are
hunters.
So
you
want
to
make
sure
you
can
come
back
to
us.
E
We
hear
about
I'd
like
to
know
pre-hand
what
you're
going
to
do
so
people
can.
I
can
be
pretty
aware
to
tell
folks
the
community
this
is
coming
watch
out
for
this
look
out,
for
that
they
need
to
be
able
to
see
it
and
know
something's
coming
as
well.
I
don't
know
we
have
ours.
Advertising
social
media,
but
again
some
of
these
neighborhood
associations,
a
lot
of
the
older
people
do
go
to
those
and
they
can
spread
the
word
and
again
finding
a
way
to
put
something
else
on
that
water
bill.
E
So
when
they
open
that
bill,
you
know
it's
in
the
corner
somewhere
to
say
what
is
it?
What
does
this
mean?
I
understood
all
right
and
again
I
think,
mr
carl,
you
talked
about
the
a
couple
of
projects
project.
I
know.
I
know
the
hot
topic
is
the
rogers
golf
course
situation,
so
you
can
just
kind
of
give
me
a
detail
on
what
that's
about
yes,
sir,
if
I
can
pass,
this
amended
exhibit
a
an
exhibit
day.
A
B
F
When
we
approved
pipes
three
years
ago,
we
specifically
took
those
projects
out
so
with
the
exception
of
the
water
building,
and
so
this
is
just
consistent
with
what
we
had
done
three
years
ago
when
we
originally
approved
it,
and
if
we're
going
to
prove
what
I
call
toilet
to
tap,
it
should
be
a
separate
budget
issue,
a
separate
discussion,
separate
hearings
and
there
shouldn't
be
a
money
shifted
from
one
account
to
another.
F
The
concern
of
the
public
is
that
we
use
these
dollars
efficiently,
even
though
it
was
a
30
or
40
increase
in
water.
For
some
people
that
was
double
some
people,
maybe
was
only
20
percent,
but
people
on
a
fixed
income.
That
was
a
lot
of
money,
but
everybody
else
even
wants
us
to
use
the
money
effectively
and
people
see
their
property
values
go
up,
but
they
see
that
property
taxes
go
up
and
they
want
to
know
that
we're
using
every
dollar
effectively.
F
But
if,
if
we're
going
to
build
a
building
like
that,
we
ought
to
have
a
full
discussion
about
the
public
and
hear
from
the
public
before
we
approve
it
and
we
shouldn't
add
it
to
another
list,
the
other,
and
so
thank
you
all
for
doing
that.
The
the
other
thing
that
I
want
to
bring
up
is
you
know
in
the
private
sector,
in
the
public
sector
too,
but
in
the
private
sector,
there's
lots
of
measures
of
efficiency,
and
so
you
talked
a
lot
about.
F
We've
used
96
of
the
money
that
was
allocated
before
in
the
bonds.
Our
credit
ratings
are
high
here
all
the
projects
we've
worked
on,
but
what
it
doesn't
say
for
the
public
is:
did
we
use
the
money
efficiently
so
in
the
capital
markets?
They're
they're
ratios
that
we
can
look
at
to
say
whether
we
spent
the
money
in
an
efficient
way.
G
Brad
baird
deputy
administrator
of
infrastructure.
Thank
you
for
that
question.
Councilman.
We
when,
when
dennis
talks
about
the
96
percent
encumbered
or
spent
on
that
first
bond
issue,
that
issuance
also
had
a
list
of
projects
associated
with
it,
so
they're
we're
talking
about
exactly
that
list
of
projects.
F
So
the
the
question,
though,
is
that,
for
example,
some
of
the
pipes
you're
replacing
completely
some
of
them
are
putting
liners
in.
I
saw
your
presentation
in
east
tampa
recently.
I
think
mostly
you're
putting
liners
in
there,
and
so
you
could
argue
that
if,
if
a
pipe
is
in
decent
shape,
I
don't
know
the
percentage,
but
if
it's
decent
shape,
it's
more
cost
effective
to
put
liner
in
that
gives
it
another
50
or
100
years.
F
Whereas
if
it's
in
bad
shape
about
the
collapse,
you
should
replace
it,
and
so
the
the
point
there
is
that
there
are
decisions
that
you
all
make
along
the
way
about
efficient
use
of
money.
So
you
wouldn't
go
to
again.
I
don't
know
the
percentages,
but
if
a
pipe
is
in
pretty
good
shape,
you
wouldn't
replace
it.
You
would
put
the
liner
in
because
I
think
that
saves
money
so
are
there?
Are
there
efficiency
measures
not
that
you've
done
the
project,
but
is
there
like
cost
per
mile
or
cost
per
project
or
comparative
costs?
F
G
The
question
a
little
bit
better
so
when
we
started
this
whole
process,
we,
if
you
recall
back
in
2019,
presented,
we
had
four
master
plans,
one
for
each
plant
and
one
for
each
of
the
line
systems,
and
then
the
pump
stations
were
included
in
the
plant
for
wastewater.
G
So
in
those
master
plans
we
prioritize
the
worst
of
the
worst.
You
know
the
ones
that
should
be
done
in
the
first
five
years,
the
next
five
years
and
so
on,
but
fast
forward
to
when
we
have
processed
the
initial
services
agreement,
we
had
our
design
build
team,
go
back
and
reevaluate
and
re-televise
the
lines
and
the
laterals
to
see
all
right
has
the
condition
changed.
Has
it
worsened
and
then
confirmed
those
are
the
worst
of
the
worst
and
then
determined
at
that
point?
Okay,
this
this
line
will
be
replaced.
G
F
It's
there
sorry
to
push
this
for
a
second,
but
is
there?
Is
there
a
a
a
ratio
or
some
kind
of
financial
measure
to
look
at
efficiencies
used,
for
example,
if
if
three
companies
are
competing
with
each
other
and
they're
ones,
buying
products
in
the
us
and
those
buying
mexico
and
others
buying
china,
if
the
the
quality
of
the
product
is
the
same,
they
can
look
at
the
prices
and
then
the
shipping
and
try
to
figure
out.
You
know
which,
which
choice
is
best
to
source
their
products,
and
in
this
case,
is
there?
F
F
An
example,
mcdonald's
can
have
two
four
people
work
at
a
counter
or
or
they
can
have
two
people
in
a
computer,
and
so
you
know
which
one
is
the
is
the
most
efficient.
How
do
we?
How
do
we
know
that
we're
efficiently
using
the
money
so.
G
That
falls
on
our
engineering
staff
for
the
most
part,
and
I
don't
know
if
gene
if
you
want
to
follow
up
on
this
and
so
they'll,
make
a
determination
as
to
what
the
best
fit
is
for
that
replacement
or
rehabilitation,
and
then
not
only
what
is
the
best
fit.
But
what
is
the
best
material?
For
that
good
example
would
be
the
lateral
lining.
G
We
have
only
two
different
firms
to
provide
slightly
different
products
and
services,
and
so
we
we
look
at
you
know
which
one
would
be
the
better
fit
for
that,
and
I
also
want
to
add
that
and
I'll
stick
with
wastewater
as
an
example
for
the
lining
of
the
main
lines
wit.
Who
is
the
prime
contractor
on
this
design?
Build
team
will
receive
bids
from
from
four
or
five
different
firms
to
provide
those
services
to
make
sure
we're
getting
the
best
price.
For
that
you
want
to
add
on.
H
H
We
have
extensive
metrics
that
we
do
for
every
component
of
the
inventory
of
our
assets,
and
so
we
use
that
data
to
develop
that
strategic
plan
of
which,
of
course,
all
these
steps
have
a
value
engineering
component
to
make
sure,
like
you
said,
councilman
that
we're
making
the
most
strategic
decisions
so
the
framework
of
our
decisions
for
what
to
do
where
to
do
how
to
do
it
is
again
databased,
and
on
top
of
that
we
have
a
very
competitive
selection
process
for
which
we
can
compare
those
proposals
and
those
what
we
call
gmps,
which
are
guaranteed
maximum
price
for
bigger
projects.
H
We
can
compare
those
with
other
existing
costs
that
other
municipalities
are
experiencing
to
compare
how
our
costs
are.
You
know
in
comparison
to
others,
see
that
we
are
within
an
acceptable
range
and
then
I
think
the
quality
of
the
service
that
we're
providing
compared
with
that
quantitative,
like
dentistry,
sharing,
quantitative
cost
of
the
the
rates
that
we
have,
we
don't
have
skyrocketing
rates.
H
We
don't
have
complaints
about
quality
assurance
so
between
the
data,
the
process,
the
strategic
approach
we
have
compared
with
the
real
world
costs
that
other
municipalities
are
experiencing,
as
well
as
the
customer
satisfaction
and
the
real
numbers
of
our
rates.
All
that
combined,
I
think,
tells
a
very
good
story
of
we're,
making
the
best
decisions
for
our
assets,
for
the
public
and
for
the
taxpayers.
B
H
I
think
I
understand
what
you're
asking
I'm
going
to
try
to
see.
If
I
can
so,
I
think
what
what
he
is
trying
to
ask-
and
I
agree
is
a
good
question-
is
so
say:
you've
gone
and
you
know
pipes
a
b
and
c
you
need
to
replace,
but
pipes,
d
and
e.
H
You
are
going
to
line
well
in
turn,
going
back
and
doing
the
revision
of
the
re
videoing,
you
found
that
pipes
a
and
b
definitely
need
to
be
replaced,
but
pipe
c
you're,
just
not
sure
about
so
you
go
ahead
and
decide
to
replace
it
and
now
d
is
really
bad
and
you're
going
to
replace
it
instead,
but
you
could
possibly
line
it.
H
F
Yeah
mike
mike,
so
we
can
talk
about
offline.
My
question
was
more
about
rate
financial
and
performance
ratios
and
and
gene
was
getting
closer
to
it,
but
maybe
we
can
talk
offline,
there's
a
discussion
about
this
again
in
a
couple
weeks.
It
might
be
good
to
show
us
in
the
public
some
of
those
measures
you
use
tied
to
the
strategic
plan.
Thank
you
for
yeah.
G
A
couple
of
things
to
that
question:
if
I
may
it's
about
half
the
cost
to
line
versus
replace
it's
almost
exactly
half
the
cost,
but
I
will
point
out
that
99
of
the
time
a
pipe
is
in
good
enough
shape
to
line
where
we're
replacing
the
pipes
is
in
two
of
those
four
neighborhoods
east
tampa
and
mcfarland
park,
where
we
have
wastewater
pipelines
in
the
alley
and
we'll
move
them
to
the
street.
That
would
be
considered
a
replacement.
So
we
we
are.
G
E
Cows
magus.
I
was
kind
of
balling
that
into
her
question
and
his
question.
We
talked
about
the
conditions
in
the
areas
of
conditions,
and
you
said
now
you
said
the
east
side
and
we
talked
about
replacement
versus
lying,
because
I
don't
want
to
hear
people
say
well:
are
they
getting
replacement
over
here
we're
just
getting
lying?
I
think
we
talked
about
that.
So
people
can
know
the
cost
effectiveness
of
well
who's
getting
what
and
where
they're
getting
it
at
right.
E
So
I
think,
for
metrics
point
is,
is
to
make
sure
we
have
a
schematic
saying
well,
if
the
east
side
has
bad
price,
we
replace
this.
This
is
this.
We
did
lining
so
people
actually
know
why
someone
got
this
versus
that,
because
I
guarantee
you
people
question
those
kind
of
things
when
you're
looking
at
the
city
well,
who's.
Getting
what
so,
you
know
if
you're
saying
especially
the
east
side
is
bad
and
we're
taking
those
out
of
the
alleyways,
because
you
know
we
have
a
lot
of
highways.
E
You
know
and
they're
all
closed
up,
and
probably
you
know
cabling
or
whatever.
So
I
just
think
that
making
sure
that
you
have
a
system,
so
people
can
know
where
they're
being
replaced
at
and
knowing
that
a
ladder
was
used
here
versus
a
replacement
there,
and
this
is
why
and
that
will
people
have
a
general
idea.
What
was
done.
E
G
No
that's
a
very
valid
concern,
and-
and
thank
you
for
that
that
will
be
part
of
our
public
engagement
program,
obviously
to
educate
exactly
what's
happening
with
with
your
property,
I
will
say
that
all
the
back
to
fronts,
what
we
call
backup
fronts
moving
the
pipeline
from
the
alley
to
the
front
are
in
mcfarland
park
in
east
tampa
the
other
two
forest
hills
and
virginia
park
are
only
getting
lining.
B
A
There
needs
to
be
a
motion
on
the
I
think,
the
subordinate
they
passed.
The
resolution,
I
think
for
the
the
supplemental
resolution.
I
guess.
D
B
D
It
allows
us
to
move
move
forward
with
the
subordinates.
C
D
D
All
right,
thank
you
again,
as
we
do
just
about
every
time.
This
year,
council
will
present
the
status
and
some
of
the
highlights
of
the
current
fiscal
year,
both
as
to
how
they
relate
to
the
uncertainties
and
volatility
I
spoke
of
earlier,
and
also
how
well
the
city
is
doing
coming
off
of
last
fiscal
year
and
as
we
prepare
for
the
fiscal
year,
23
budget.
D
Pardon
me,
you
can
see
that
those
two
items
make
up
about
three
quarters
of
the
entire
1.8
billion
dollar
budget,
getting
into
a
little
more
detail
with
those
two
primary
funds
you
see
on
the
left,
the
general
fund
and
on
the
right,
the
enterprise
funds,
as
is
typically
the
case
again,
the
general
fund
funds,
public
safety
funds
parks
and
recreation,
the
back
office,
central
government
efforts
and
including
revenue
and
finance
by
the
way
and
a
public
works
component
on
the
right,
the
enterprise
funds.
Those
are
where
we
place
our
businesses.
D
D
But
because
of
that,
flexibility
is
also
probably
one
of
the
most
in-demand
funding
sources,
because
you
can
spend
it
on
everything.
As
council
knows,
and
as
we've
discussed,
you
cannot
take
water
revenues
and
fund
the
police
department
with
it,
for
instance,
she
can
take
the
general
funding
and
do
whatever
you'd
like.
D
And
zeroing
in
on
the
general
fund,
again
specifically
the
general
fund
balance,
we
anticipate,
as
you
can
see
this
chart
in
this
chart
on
the
right.
We
will
remain
in
a
very
strong
fund
balance
position,
but
slightly
less
so
than
the
previous
two
years,
as
our
budget
increases.
Of
course,
as
our
budget
increases,
our
required
amount
for
fund
balance
associated
with
both
our
policy
and
our
goals
also
goes
up,
and
that's
that's
excuse
me
I
to
take
a
sip
of
water.
D
And
that's
very
apparent
on
the
right:
the
funding
is
going
up,
but
the
percentage
as
a
portion
of
the
general
fund
actually
goes
down,
not
unusual.
I
anticipate
that
will
continue
on
forever,
but
it's
a
little
counterintuitive,
but
I
think
this
graph
does
a
very
good
job
of
explaining
that,
as
you
can
see,
we
still
anticipate
a
fund
balance
well
above
our
20
policy,
our
20
policy
and
and
I'll
say
to
you
exactly
what
I
say
to
the
rating
agencies.
It
is
a
floor,
not
a
ceiling.
D
We
continue
to
have
a
goal
of
fund
balance
well
in
excess
of
our
20
policy,
and
I
want
to
thank
council
again
for
always
showing
support
for
very
strong
fund
balances.
D
So
that's
the
good
news
and
I
don't
want
to
say
it's
bad
news,
but
we
have
a
number
of
challenges
facing
us.
Whether
you
talk
about
the
global
economy,
the
supply
chain
challenges
the
potential
wage
price
spiral.
You
may
hear
about
bringing
it
down
even
locally.
As
council
knows,
we
are
negotiating
with
all
four
collective
bargaining
units
right
now
we're
experiencing
the
highest
inflation
in
about
40
years
and
in
part
because
of
that
inflation,
more
and
more
experts
are
talking
about
a
potential
recession.
D
A
recession
is
not
an
unknown
part
of
the
business
cycle.
It's
an
accepted
part
of
the
business
cycle,
but
of
course
nobody
wants
to
go
through
it
and
we
hope
it
doesn't
come
to
that.
As
council
is
aware-
and
as
we've
discussed
and
we'll
probably
discuss
again,
we
continue
to
have
affordable
housing
challenges.
D
D
As
council
is
well
aware
and
as
we've
also
previously
discussed
the
community
investment
tax
sunsets
in
2026,
that
will
be
a
sizable
sizable
vacuum.
We
anticipate
27
million
dollars
this
year
in
community
investment
tax.
As
council
is
aware,
we
rely
on
that
to
heavily
fund
vehicle
replacement,
including
public
safety,
vehicle
replacement.
D
D
I
will
say
one
final
thing:
on
a
fund
balance
and
strong
fund
balances
in
general.
Prior
to
the
pandemic,
you
may
have
heard.
I
know
we
heard
in
our
profession
more
and
more
talk
about
fiscal
sustainability
and
the
pandemic
hit
and
the
increasing
talk
and
knowledge
about
climate
change.
The
term
fiscal
sustainability
continues
to
get
more
and
more
play
and
for
good
reason
that
is
being
able
to
sustain
these
unknown
these.
What
known
unknowns,
I
think
it's
been
called.
D
There
we
go
I'd
like
to
refresh
on
the
use
of
a
signed
fund
balance.
Already
this
fiscal
year.
We
have
used
about
nine
and
a
half
million
dollars
to
fund
council
and
the
mayor's
priorities
this
year.
Over
and
above
what
was
included
in
the
adopted
budget,
you
see
in
the
left,
most
column,
affordable,
housing
so
far,
we've
appropriated
for
the
first
time,
general
funding
for
affordable
housing,
assistance
to
the
tomb
of
6.5
billion.
D
In
the
middle
column,
you
see
about
2
million
dollars
for
fire
rescue
again
over
and
above
what
was
already
adopted
and
that
final
million
at
the
bottom
there.
That's
the
tampa
general
hospital
that
disease
research
associated
with
the
pandemic
on
the
bottom
right
you'll
see.
We
still
have
about
three
and
a
half
million
dollars
that
we've
identified
out
of
a
signed
fund,
balance
that
can
still
be
appropriated.
D
Moving
on
to
the
general
fund
revenues
and
in
particular
in
this
particular
slide,
the
property
tax
revenue,
our
single
largest
source
of
revenue
in
the
city-
it
is
just
slightly
more
we
project
than
is
budgeted
another
indication
of
a
very
strong
environment.
This
is
the
city's
ninth
year
in
a
row
of
increases
since
the
great
recession.
Although
the
pace
of
increase
is
slightly
less
than
the
previous
two
fiscal
years
in
about
two
weeks,
we'll
get
the
preliminary
taxable
values
for
the
next
fiscal
year.
We
anticipate
they
will
be
very
strong.
D
D
The
next
slide
is
the
half
cent
sales
tax.
You
see
it's
very,
very
strong.
We
budgeted
38.1
million
dollars.
We
think
we're
going
to
collect
40
million
dollars.
Consumer
spending
remains
very,
very
elevated.
In
fact,
the
larger
question
is:
can
that
consumer
spending
stay
at
that
level
at
about
three
quarters
of
the
entire
u.s
economy,
consumer
spending
is
a
very
big
driver.
D
Our
electric
utility
services
tax
on
the
left
and
the
communication
services
tax
on
the
left,
notable
because
it
is
climbing
to
its
highest
in
a
number
of
years.
I
will
point
out
the
communication
services
tax
because,
despite
its
lower
trajectory,
it
is
evening
out
some
council
member
members
will
recall
it
used
to
be
twice
that
much
just
about
10
or
so
years
ago,
and
it
was
it
did
it
precipitously
dropped.
It
is
evening
out
we're
pleased
to
see
that,
because
again,
17
million
dollars
is
17
million.
D
It'd
be
lovely
to
be
coming
in
less,
but
we
are
very
pleased
with
the
accuracy
of
the
projection
so
far,
and
we
attribute
much
of
that
to
the
open,
gov
software
that
we've
talked
about
so
much.
It
allows
us
to
have
a
number
of
different
sandboxes
slice
and
dice
the
data
in
a
number
of
different
ways
that
leads
to
a
more
accurate
projection.
D
Speaking
of
opengov,
as
we've
discussed
in
the
past,
we
have
developed
a
training
curriculum
for
that
tool.
The
more
I
discover
about
it,
the
more
useful
I
find
it
so
we'll
be
reaching
out
to
your
offices
to
schedule
time
based
on
your
calendar.
Pardon
me
and
your
interest
to
walk
you
through
that
instruct
you
on
how
to
get
the
most
out
of
that
very,
very
valuable
tool.
D
The
city
continues
to
enjoy
some
of
the
best
funded
pension
programs
in
the
united
states.
We're
very
very
proud
of
that.
That
is
a
credit
to
the
mayor
to
city
council
to
the
pension
boards,
both
past
and
current.
We
have
never.
The
city
has
never
taken
a
so-called
pension
holiday
every
year
year
in
year
out
in
good
times
and
bad,
we
contribute
exactly
what
we
anticipate
contributing
and
that
has
paid
off
in
the
funding
level.
You
see
here,
fire
and
police
pension
right
on
budget
pleased
to
see
that
they
have
a
funding
level
of
94.
D
D
Moving
into
those
departments
that
we
run
like
a
business,
our
enterprise
fund,
the
parking
department-
they
are
recovering
nicely.
It
was
not
too
long
ago
that
they
were
being
supplemented
from
the
general
fund.
You
see
our
budget
had
them
just
slightly
increasing
their
fund
balance
at
the
bottom.
Over
on
the
right,
we
think
they're
going
to
come
in
five
million
dollars
ahead.
Very
very
strong.
We've
recently
instituted
those
parking
rate
increases
and
demand
is
coming
back
from
the
pandemic.
D
D
The
solid
waste
department
will
continue
to
get
hit
just
a
bit
harder.
But
again,
if
you
look
at
the
bottom
better
than
we
anticipated,
we
thought
they'd
be
eating
into
their
fund
balance
for
almost
12
million
dollars.
We
think
they'll
come
in
at
nine
million
dollars,
which
is
still
nine
million
dollars,
but
it's
better
than
we
anticipated.
D
Moving
to
waste
water,
they
will
finish
ahead
and
even
better
than
we
anticipated
they're
projected
to
slightly
increase
their
fund
balance
and
again,
as
we'll
see
in
water
in
just
a
moment,
that
is
by
design
as
these
very
expensive
projects
gear
up,
go
through
programming,
design,
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
increasing
their
fund
balances
in
our
best
interest.
So
we
can
spend
it
on
down
the
line
and
you
can
see
the
water
department
has
already
started
doing
that
to
an
extent
we
figured
they
or
we
budgeted.
D
D
Turning
our
attention
to
what
we
affectionately
call
other
people's
money
or
opm
the
mayor
when
she
came
into
office
mandated
that
we
aggressively
pursue
outside
funding
and
we've
done
and
we've
done.
Excuse
me
just
that
council
will
recall.
We
consolidated
our
grant
efforts
so
everybody's
on
the
same
page,
maximizing
our
chance
of
getting
funding
well
coordinated
and
it's
paying
off.
We
are
pursuing
over
a
hundred
million
dollars
this
year.
D
I
can
guarantee
you
that
we
will
not
get
all
of
it,
but
we
have
been
very
successful
since
fiscal
year
2020
we
have
brought
in
over
50
million
dollars
of
outside
grant
funding.
So
we'll
continue
that
effort.
I
think
we've
got
the
momentum,
and
importantly,
I
think
the
grantors
recognize
similar
to
the
pipes
program
that
we're
getting
that
funding
out
the
door
that
we're
spending
it.
D
Wrapping
up
here's
the
budget
calendar
a
couple
more
milestones.
Of
course
it's
a
long
way
from
right
now
to
august
4th,
but
that
is
when
the
mayor
will
present
her
recommended
budget
to
you,
our
two
public
hearings
and
in
between
then
we'll
have
meetings
we'll
have
the
citizens
advisory
committee,
etc.
D
I
would
just
like
to
close
by
saying
you
know
if
you
walk
away
from
anything
from
this
presentation,
walk
away
with
the
knowledge
that
we
are
in
a
very
strong
position,
but
again
we've.
We've
got
quite
a
few
challenges
ahead
of
us
and
thank
you
again
for
your
interest
and
time.
We
can
answer
any
questions
you
have
or
if
we
can't
we'll
circle
back
to
you
asap.
I
Councilman
miranda,
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
mr
o'hara.
I
I
I
agree
and
the
half
cent
sales
tax,
certainly
a
little
later
than
sooner,
but
still
in
2026,
that's
around
the
corner,
it'll
end
and
up
to
now
I've
heard
no
movement
and
any
replacement
of
that
the
gas
tax
as
we're
changing
our
ways
of
living
from
driving
gas
guzzlers
to
electric
or
hybrid
mobile
transmission
and
stuff
that
mobile
automobiles
is
one
thing.
The
other
thing
is
the
communication
tax,
in
my
opinion,
will
continue
to
decrease
at
some
event,
not
not
all
the
way,
but
some.
I
So
those
are
the
three
challenges
without
looking
in
too
much
into
the
future,
but
I
think
that
the
gas
tax
in
2025
26
when
also
the
half
penny
sales
tax
this
year,
just
under
five
percent
of
the
cars
sold
this
year,
going
to
be
electric,
but
it
was
zero
percent
four
or
five
years
ago.
So
we
can
also
we
went
up.
Five
percent
we
went
up.
Five
thousand
percent
makes
no
difference
how
you
look
at
you
started
at
zero.
I
So
when
you
look
at
these
things,
you
have
to
give,
in
my
opinion,
some
consideration
and
it's
a
guessing
game.
What's
going
to
happen
in
the
near
future,
you've
got
to
be
a
forecaster.
You've
got
to
go,
see
a
psychiatrist
and
tell
you
what
the
numbers
are
because
they're
going
to
drive
you
crazy.
I
I
D
I
F
Thank
you,
mr
o'hara,
for
getting
this
out
early
and
quickly.
I
don't
have
the
numbers
in
front
of
me,
but,
as
I
remember
it,
2018
the
budget
was
around
900
million,
maybe
a
little
bit
more,
and
so
now
the
total
is
about
1.8.
Can
you
just
explain
for
the
public
what
what
the
difference
is?
If
somebody
just
looked
at
this,
they
would
say
you
you've.
You've
got
a
hundred
percent
in
three
years.
H
F
Why
can
you
just
explain
that,
yes,.
D
Absolutely
it's
a,
and
I
understand
that
perception
I
would
start
with
the
aggressive
use
of
capital
improvements.
Our
capital
improvement
plan
has
also
grown
appreciably,
much
of
it
due
to
the
pipes
program,
but
not
all
of
it,
but
I'll.
Take
that
thread
of
why
we
are
pursuing
the
pipes
program
so
aggressively.
We
have
many
capital
improvement
needs
that,
for
whatever
reason,
the
city
as
a
whole
hasn't
done
over
time
and
we're
trying
to
play
a
lot
of
catch-up.
That's
a
lot
of
funding
and
each
fiscal
year.
D
When
we
adopt
the
first
portion
of
that
capital
improvement
plan,
it
elevates
our
total
budget.
You
also
have,
of
course,
the
cost
of
living,
whether
it's
the
you
know
whether
it's
inflation,
whether
it's
the
cost
of
materials,
whether
it's
negotiated
pay,
increase
and
benefits,
and
health
insurance
costs,
and
things
like
that.
We
can
provide
a
better
itemization,
but
as
we're
going
through,
we
are
aggressively
pursuing
projects
and
costs
are
going
up,
both
human
costs
and
operating
costs
and.
F
Considering
all
the
in
the
economic
issues
that
you
and
councilman
miranda
mentioned,
which
I
also
agree
with,
do
you
all
do
some
kind
of
sensitivity
test
to
say
you
know,
plus
or
minus
10,
plus
or
minus
20
percent?
On
that.
F
D
F
And
then
on
the
on
the
on
the
fund
balance.
Thank
you
for
being
aggressive
about
that
something
I
know
I
push
for
starting
in
99
and
I
think
others
as
well,
but
knowing
that
we
may
be
facing
the
lower
side
of
the
sensitivity
test,
it
would
be
great
to
put
as
much
as
possible
in
there
because
next
year
could
be
really
different
than
this
year.
Just
like
in
1919.
F
F
D
Am
thank
you
thank
you
for
asking,
and
you
see
a
little
bit
of
variation
in
the
expenditures
associated
with
each
it's
going
to
depend
on
a
few
things.
Of
course,
not
only
the
you
know,
pay
and
benefit
increases,
but
the
performance
of
the
individual
fund
to
to
answer
your
question.
Yes,
I
think
they're,
both
in
very,
very
good
shape.
I
sit
on
both
pension
boards,
they're
well
run.
We
have
very
good
pension
professionals,
both
from
a
legal
and
funding
perspective.
F
And
on
the
the
grants,
we
don't
we
don't
see
this
over
time.
Do
you
have
any
idea
what
the
grants
were?
The
dollar
amount
was
ten
years
ago
or
five
years
ago,
compared
to
today.
F
Consolidated,
if
the,
if
the
number
has
gone
way
up
with
the
consolidation,
then
that's
something
the
mayor
should
brag
about,
because
it
shows
it's
worked
and
if
it
didn't,
then
I
guess
we
could
look
at
it.
But.
A
Good
afternoon
council
mike
perry
budget
officer
before
k,
we
hired
catherine
hayes
as
the
grand
supervisor
we're
about
two
to
three
million
dollars
per
year.
Wow.
A
Example,
we've
never
received
competitive
housing
grants
that
we've
done
to
this
year.
So
congratulations
to
the
greens
team.
F
Yeah
thanks
everybody
congrats
another
quick
question:
before
I
get
cut
off
payroll
I
saw
payroll
has
gone
up,
but
I
assume
a
lot
of
that
is
because
we're
adding
people
back
in
from
all
the
cuts
from
the
great
recession.
Everything,
but
do
you
feel
like
there's?
The
economists
are
saying
now
you
have
to
give
a
five
or
seven
percent
raise
just
to
stay
even
with
inflation.
Do
you
feel
like
we're
staying
even
with
inflation
employees
or
how
are
we
doing
there.
D
Well,
that's
a
very
good
question.
It
genuinely
is
because
that
is
entering
into
our
discussions
as
we
negotiate
with
the
collective
bargaining
units
and
and
you'll
you'll.
I'm
sure
you'll
see
and
hear
some
of
that
discussion
taking
place
nationwide,
it's
the
the
highest
level
of
inflation
in
40
years.
The
question
of
course
you
know
further
to
what
mr,
what
councilman
miranda
said.
How
long
is
it
going
to
last?
F
One
last
question:
if
I
could
the
general
fund
484
million,
what
do
you?
What
do
you
expect
that
I
didn't
see
a
chart?
What
do
you
expect
that
to
be
in
in
2023
and
is
there
once
you
account
for
inflation?
Is
there
some
bucket
of
money?
We
know
that
our
constituents
are
asking
for
parks
and
sidewalks
and
potholes
and
all
kinds
of
things.
So
is
there
any
budget
of
money
that
we
can
talk
about
applying
or
is
all
of
it
going
to
go
toward
inflation.
D
I
that
that's
another
good
question,
if
I,
if
I'm
looking
for
it,
I
think
a
component
will
certainly
will
need
for
inflation,
but
I
also
see-
and
this
will
be
part
of
the
fiscal
year-
23
budget
process,
both
with
council
and
the
citizens
advisory
committee-
a
portion,
yes,
will
be
eaten
up
by
inflation.
I
think
there
will
also
be
a
portion
for
either
expansion
of
operating
expenses
things
we
want
to
do
or
things
and
like
we've.
All
we've
also
got
an
unknown
pay
increase.
D
You
know
that
that
will
come
to
fruition
as
we
finish
negotiations
and
we're
also
again
entertaining
scenarios
associated
with
benefit
increases.
Health
increases
insurance
increases.
That's
a
very
long
way
of
saying,
and
I
apologize
I
don't
know,
but
what
what
I
anticipate
is.
It
will
be
a
two-pronged,
a
two-pronged
effort,
fighting
inflation
and
funding
inflation
and
whatever
else
we'd
like
to
do
great.
Thank
you.
I
Councilman
miranda,
I
think,
councilman
mayor
carlson,
talked
about
inflation.
Have
you
taken
that
into
consideration
a
lot
of
people
in
the
public
think
that
government
is
immune
to
inflation?
We
have
to
pay
the
same
increase,
as
anybody
else
does
number
one
number
two:
when
you
did
your
calculation
on
the
budget,
did
you
make
sure
that
the
policing
fire
was
calculated,
100
percent
or
95
or
whatever
employees
they
need?
I
don't
know
their
ratio
if
they're,
100
or
80
or
90
percent.
Do
you.
D
I
I
do
I
can
speak
it's
it's
more
complicated
than
I'm
going
to
answer,
but
I
I
think
it
will
answer
your
question.
You
know,
with
with
time
off
with
vacancies
and
the
time
off
whether
it's
annual
leave
sick
leave,
etc.
We
have
a
series
of
calculations
that
we
go
through
to
fund
for
the
entire
year.
What
we
think
the
expenditure
is
going
to
be
for
our
full
complement
of
approved
positions.
So
that's.
I
F
At
first
I
I
missed,
but
lisa
cheshire
passed
away
and
we
gave
her
accommodation
a
couple
months
ago,
while
she
was
still
alive.
But
I
just
want
to
you
know
for
her
family's
sake
in
the
community.
Just
acknowledge
that
we
all
will
miss
her,
and
we
hope
that
others
in
the
community
will
step
up
to
support
the
efforts
that
she
was
involved
in.
F
Second
on
I'm
going
to
be
out
of
out
of
the
country
on
a
business
trip
june
2nd-
and
there
are
two
items
scheduled
on
june,
2nd
that
I
would
like
to
move.
It's
the
the
second
and
third
one
from
the
bottom
staff
to
propose
ordinance
that
require
10
days
notice
and
the
other
one
on
public
works
department.
Presenting
cost
savings.
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
to
move
those
two
to
june
16th.
Please.
B
C
F
On
june
16th
also,
I
wonder
if
we
could
add
a
staff
report
for
about
three
years,
I've
been
working
with
chief
of
staff
and
other
leaders
in
the
in
the
city
on
a
parking
situation
on
decol
avenue
in
south
tampa,
and
it
is
somewhat
representative
changes
that
are
happening
in
the
rest
of
the
city,
and
I
wonder
if
we
could
just
ask
it's
not
something
that
we'll
have
to
do
a
new
report,
they're
already
in
the
middle
of
it.
F
So
I
just
asked
for
them
to
give
a
public
update
on
the
decal
avenue
parking
situation
on
june
16th.
Second,.
B
F
A
F
The
the
last
one
is
related
to
that.
If
we
could
also,
on
june
16th,
have
a
staff
report
on
any
changes
staff
might
recommend
and
if
they
need
more
time,
they
can
come
back
and
ask
us,
but
what
changes
staff
would
recommend
for
the
zoning
or
permitting
of
restaurants
in
the
future?
F
There's
a
different
situation
because
of
covid
and
and
the
delivery
services
where
the
parking
requirements
for
restaurants
is
changing
and
there
might
be
some
restaurants
that
are
that
are
more
geared
toward
delivery
services
than
for
eat
in,
and
so
this
would
be
a
discussion
about
whether
we
need
to
have
a
separate
category
for
restaurants
that
are
mostly
delivery.
I
F
One
last
last
thing:
I
think
we
ought
to
not
emotion,
but
I
think
we
ought
to
briefly
discuss
the
process
and
format
for
monday.
My
proposal
is
that
we
each
just
go
down
the
line
and
depending
on
what
the
you're
the
chair,
so
you
decide
this,
but
that
we
would
each
propose
whatever
it
is.
We
propose
we
have
a
discussion
we
hear
from
the
public
and
then
we
vote
on
what
we
ask
staff
to
bring
back
to
us.
So
you
may
have
different
thoughts,
but
I
just
want
to
throw
it
on
the
table.
B
H
B
B
B
B
A
B
A
H
E
That's
what
we
did
last
time.
The
public
spoke
about
the
issues
that
they
were
concerned
about
and
then
we
from
there
took
on
the
discussion
with
the
facilitator.
So
I
I
don't
know
if
we
can
allocate
another
hour
whatever
for
the
facilitator
or
whatever,
but
if,
if
so,
maybe
mr
shelby,
given
in
case
we
do
go
over,
she
can
be
compensated
if
we
go
over.
B
A
F
E
A
B
I
moved
that
I
present
a
commendation
to
mr
marvin
knight,
celebrating
his
retirement
from
tico
and
his
service
to
the
community.
Mr
knight
works
for
chico.
He
has
a
degree
in
electric
technology
and
computer
electronics.
Mr
knight
is
very
active
within
our
community
and
is
a
member
of
the
west
tampa
cra
and
the
freddie
solomon
boys
and
girls
club,
and
I
will
present
to
this
to
him
off-site
on
sunday.
B
B
B
It
for
me
second
motion
to
receive
and
fob
councilman
miranda
seconded
by
councilman
mataskanka,
all
in
favor
aye.
We
are
adjourned.
