B
I
Thank
you,
Mr
citro.
How
are
you,
sir,
and
Council,
so
this
year
it's
gonna
be
a
little
bit
different,
not
going
to
have
a
nice
PowerPoint
that
we
normally
do
we're
just
going
to
kind
of
give
an
update,
but
before
I
do
that,
as
always,
I
want
to
recognize
my
committee
members
that
always
made
the
effort
to
attend
our
committee
meetings.
I
I
will
start
out
by
recognizing
Vice
chair,
but
incoming
chair
Dr,
Craig,
Newman,
Andy,
scaglioni,
Stephanie,
poyna,
Joe
Farrell
and
myself
I'm
going
to
go
over
a
few
wins
that
we've
had
recommendations
that
we've
had
and
that
will
start
with
2019
as
it
pertains
to
my
predecessor,
former
chairman,
Stephen
Lytle.
I
One
of
the
things
that
he
started
on
his
initiative
was
to
continue
parking
rate
study,
the
implementation
of
the
new
p-card
program,
the
police
body
Cam,
and
also
the
North
Tampa
employee
health
clinic
those
some
of
the
initiatives
that
was
undertaken
by
Mr
Lytle
and
continued
by
myself
going
into
FY
21..
I
We
have
the
Community
Development
and
neighborhood
enhancement
Department
in
the
sense
of
there
was
going
to
be
one
position
that
was
created,
but
they
were
the
Chief
and
his
staff
was
able
to
expand
that
department
where
there's
more
community
outreach
from
the
administration.
So
that's
one
of
the
areas
that
we
reckon
that
we
recommended
also
the
Grants
Department.
The
expansion
of
the
Grants
Department
went
from
one
individual
to
now:
five
individuals
across
the
city
departments
scouring
for
those
States
and
state
and
federal
funds.
I
We
also
recommend
it
continued
the
parking
rate
study
and
then
continuing
the
parking
rate
study.
We
moved
over
into
FY
22
and
parking
rates
increase
in
all
the
city-owned
parking
locations,
which
now
the
parking
department
is
a
truly
functional,
Enterprise,
Department,
rather
being
augmented
by
the
general
funds.
So
also
working
with
the
budget
department
for
FY
22,
we
were
able
to
well.
They
were
able
to
find
an
additional
18,
additional
18,
plus
Mill
of
state
and
federal
funds
that
was
allocated
to
affordable
housing.
I
So
that's
something
that
our
committee
recommended
and
also
we
like
to
see
that
the
day
of
the
dream
program,
the
website
has
been
updated.
A
little
more
informative
people
are
able
to
navigate
a
little
better,
especially
those
that
really
don't
know
much
about
the
program.
I
So
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
this
committee
has
done
over
the
past
four
years,
starting
with
my
predecessor,
Stephen
Lytle
and
continuing
under
my
chairmanship,
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
call
up
the
new
incoming
chair
and
that
would
be
Mr,
Newman
and
I'm
going
to
pass
the
gavel
to
Mr
Newman
and
additionally,
this
is
not
only
my
last
act
as
chairman,
but
also
as
a
member
of
the
budget
advisory
committee.
So
it's
been
honor.
I
B
J
Johnson,
thank
you
for
your
leadership.
You
know
I've
watched
the
Budget
Finance
committed
when
Mr
Lyda
was
there
and
I
watched
his
style.
I
watched
your
style.
That's
why
I
selected
you
as
my
person
to
be
on
that
committee
when
you
first
did
your
2019
presentation
I
can
tell
you.
I
got
numerous
of
phone
calls
on
how
you
presented
yourself,
how
you
looked
into
the
budget
and
I'm,
proud
to
say:
I
was
proud,
I
selected
you
because
I
knew
as
a
young
man
when
I
coached
you
at
pal
three
years.
J
It
makes
me
proud
that
one
of
my
people
could
get
up
here
to
do
what
they
need
to
do
for
this
community.
So
I'm,
very
emotional
inside
that
you
are
leaving
but
I
understand
your
frustrations
are
why
you
leave
me
and
I
know
there
were
a
lot
of
difficult
challenges
with
people
not
showing
up
people,
not
understanding
finances
budgeting.
Some
of
people
are
selected
to
be
on
those
committee
committee
I'm,
hoping
that
with
Mr
Newman's
leadership
that
he'll
be
able
to
get
people
that
will
be
able
to
do
what
we
ask
them
to
do.
J
You
brought
a
lot
of
light
to
the
city
about
a
lot
of
different
issues,
someone
we
acted
upon,
someone
we
didn't,
but
I
just
want
to.
Thank
you
for
your
true
leadership
in
bringing
some
of
the
errors
that,
as
a
as
a
as
a
body,
we
didn't
know
that
we
aired,
and
now
Mr
Sheldon
Mr
Morris
been
fixing
those
errors
that
that
we
didn't
give
you
the
tools
that
you
needed
to
really
succeed.
I
It's
been
honor
and
I.
Just
you
know.
I
Sometimes
it's
you
know,
I'm
very
passionate
about
the
things
that
I
do.
You
know
you
know
as
a
as
a
business
owner
and
as
someone
who
understands
and
study
politics
every
day,
I,
don't
look
I,
don't
recognize
the
word
politics,
I'm
I'm,
more
of
recognizing
the
word
and
trying
to
instill,
legislate
them
back
on
the
local
level,
not
just
the
state
level,
but
also
on
a
federal
level.
Sometimes
politics
overshadows
the
mission
that
needs
to
be.
You
know
one
and
I
I.
Just
think
that
we've
done
a
lot
of
good
things.
I
We've
worked
well
with
the
administration,
but
when
we
press
the
hard
buttons
some
things
just
kind
of
you
know,
politics
prevails
and
I'm,
not
one
for
the
politics.
So,
but
we've
done
some
good
things
and
I
have
no
doubt
that
Dr
Newman
and
his
new
committee
members
will
hopefully
pick
up
where
I
left
off
in
some
areas
that
you
know,
initiatives
that
I've
LED
and
see
it
through.
I
But
it's
it's
bittersweet,
but
it's
the
best
for
me
and
and
leaving
the
committee
and
leaving
it
in
good
hands
with
Dr,
Newman
and
I
hope
that
you
know
going
forward
that
you
really
listen
to
this
body.
You
know
Council.
Also
Administration
Administration
has
done
a
good
job
in
listening.
A
lot
of
areas
as
I
went
over.
Those
are
some
of
the
key
recommendations
that
we
made
over
the
years,
but
there
are
times
where,
when
you
press
hard,
some
things
don't
want
to.
I
You
know
come
to
light
so
with
that
I
would
not
take
up
any
more
of
Dr
Newman's
time,
but,
as
I
said,
the
committee
will
be
in
good
hands
with
him.
He's
been
my
vice
chair
for
the
past
two
years
and
he'll
be
a
great
chair
and
Mr
scaglione
will
be
a
great
Vice,
chair
and
I
bet
everybody
a
good
farewell
and
we'll
see
you
around.
F
Thank
you,
sir
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
Ms
Johnson
and
all
the
all
the
other
folks
you
have
on
board
there.
Thanks
to
your
team.
Also
you've
had
a
lot
of
a
whole
Army
of
people
working
on
this
budget
over
the
last
couple
years,
and
thank
you
for
your
insights
and
your
dedication
to
the
city
to
every
dollar
we
save
can
be
spent
on
something
important
like
affordable
housing.
F
So
what
you
did
is
really
important
and
and
hopefully
that
Dr
Newman,
the
others
will
be
able
to
step
in
the
picture.
Thank
you.
G
Well,
that
was
a
shocker
I
didn't
expect
that
he
was
an
outstanding
chair
and
he
was
he
was
a
numbers
guy
and
that's
what
it's
all
about
is
saving
money
for
our
city
and
the
people
and
that's
what
Joseph
did
an
outstanding
job
and
I
hope
to
be
as
do
as
good
a
job
or.
But
the
good
part
is
now
that
you're
not
on
the
committee.
I
can
pick
your
brain
brother
I
can
pick
your
brain
and
we
can
have
phone
call
conversations
about
it.
G
We
did
have
challenges
and
thank
you
Orlando
for
bringing
that
up.
It's
unfortunate
that
we
had
this
past
year,
we've
had
probably
four
meetings
that
we
had
to
cancel.
Either
we
didn't
have
a
quorum
or
we
didn't
have
a
notification.
You
know
posted
that
we
needed
to
have
and
it's
unfortunate
and
it's
happened.
But
right
now
we
have
watched
the
last
several
meetings.
We've
had
a
change
in
this,
a
change
in
making
us
more,
have
more
teeth
in
it
and
be
able
to
express
ourselves
and
we're
trying
to
work
a
lot
more
closely.
G
I'd
like
us
to
see,
as
one
of
my
goals
is
to
have
work
with
city
council
more
closely
put
it
together,
a
workshop
that
the
this
committee
sits
down
directly
with
city
council.
We
sit
down
and
have
discussions
about.
What's
coming
up
what
you,
what
you
expect
from
us
as
members
we've
had
in
the
last
two
years,
four
Replacements
on
this
committee
and
one
of
them,
was
on
the
committee
before
and
been
gone
for
several
years
and
he
came
back
and
I
guess
it
was
because
it
was
such
an
exciting
committee
to
be
on
that.
G
He
decided
he
wanted
to
get
back
on
city
council
with
budget
Advisory
board,
but
all
kidding
aside
he's,
you
know,
he's
a
vital
part
and
we
have
everybody
that
we
have
currently
we're
hoping
sticks
around
long
enough.
But
we
need
to
make
sure
that,
folks,
that
you
we
point
to
this
board,
have
got
really
want
to
be
part
of
it.
Just
to
have
your
name
on
the
on
there
is
that
your
member
and
showing
up
or
not
showing
up.
G
We
can't
have
that
and
you'll
be
having
phone
calls
from
me,
because
I'm,
a
direct
person
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
people
who
want
to
be
there,
because
it's
it's
an
involved
committee.
You
know
with
what
we
have
to
go
over.
The
budget
is
a
huge,
huge
item
to
go
through
and
but
overall
we're
looking
to
make
some
changes.
G
What
we're
doing
is
we're
going
to
be
the
city
budget
Advisory
Board
meets,
will
be
meeting
every
month
on
the
second
Friday
of
every
month
between
9
30
and
12
o'clock,
and
our
next
meeting
is
October
14th
and
we're
going
to
be
starting
with
the
basics.
We're
going
to
be
having
it's
a
workshop,
we're
going
to
do
how
to
navigate
through
tampa.gov,
because
there's
a
lot
of
things
out
there
that
have
been
told.
Oh
it's
on
tampa.gov,
you
just
find
it
there.
G
You
just
find
it
there
and
sometimes
I'll,
find
it
or
I'll
pick
up
a
telephone
and
I'll
call
Mary
on
the
phone
and
ask
her.
How
do
how
do
I
find
this?
And
what
do
I
do?
Or
you
know,
I'll
call
Lisa
on
the
phone
I
need
some
issue.
How
do
I
find
this
on
the
on
the
website?
So
this
way
everybody's,
because
we
have
not
had
a
workshop
on
how
to
work
this
in
the
four
well,
how
many
four
five
four
five
years
that
I
think
I've
been
on
the
board?
G
Four
years,
because
it's
when
yeah,
because
we
were
when
I
got
appointed
when
Bill
Carlson
was
elected
so
it's
four
years
ago,
but
we
want
to
get
into
start
treating
this
like
a
committee
that
we're
involved
in
this
and
and
not
just
an
ad
hoc
committee,
but
a
committee
that
we're
into
this-
and
there
are
some
rules
that
we're
we're
learning
and
we've
gone
through
the
Sunshine
Law
with
everybody
and
a
lot
of
people.
G
We're
going
to
continue
doing
going
back
to
doing
some
face-to-face
meetings
that
we've
done
have
done
previously
to
see
what
the
asks
are
and
what
the
needs
are,
but
we're
also
going
to
do
something
that
had
been
done.
Since
I
had
been
on
this
committee,
we
have
going
to
start
making
having
oh
I
forgot,
what
they
called
it
when
I
was
in
elementary
school.
What's
that
day,
trips
we're
going
to
go
and
go.
Do
the
waste
water
see
the
new
plants
that
are
out
there?
This
way
you
get
a
feel
for.
G
What's
going
on,
I,
remember
Lytle
used
to
talk
about
this
quite
a
bit,
but
we
never
did
it
and
just
to
get
more
involved
in
knowing
what's
going
on
within
the
city
and
when
you
get
Hands-On,
then
you've
got
a
chance
and
you
meet
with
the
department
heads.
But
when
you
physically
go
out
and
see
it,
it
makes
a
difference,
has
a
bigger
impact
and
we're
going
to
be
doing
that
more
often
as
well.
G
But
it's
just
but
I
think
that
we're
on
a
good
course
and
like
I,
said
I'm
looking
forward
to
I
was
talking
to
Tim
this
afternoon
and
he
was
was
they're
going
to
work
on
trying
to
get
figure
out
a
time
that
the
city,
council
and
the
budget
Advisory
board
can
sit
down
to
a
little
workshop.
That's
why
I
started
this
and
that's
why
I'm
going
to
end
it
I
look
forward
to
serving
city,
council
and
and
picking
your
brains,
but
thank
you
so
much
for
letting
us
present
gonna
miss
you
buddy.
G
H
Thank
you
Mr
chair
again,
Dennis
farajaros,
Chief
Financial
Officer
good
evening
before
I
started.
My
presentation
I
would
also
like
to
thank
the
citizens
advisory
committee
and
and
Mr
Johnson
I
I
have
always
appreciated
your
energy.
Your
Insight,
you
will
be
missed.
I
am
sure,
but
thank
you
again
for
everybody's
efforts
through
throughout
the
years
and
if
I
could
have
my
presentation
up,
please.
H
Probably
thank
you
for
allowing
us
the
opportunity
again
it's
going
to
be
a
very
brief
recap.
We've
talked
about
many
of
these
and
more
things
prior
to
so
we
try
not
to
belabor
it
too
much
again.
There
is
the
recommended
budget
that
we've
submitted
to
council
1.866
plus
billion
dollars
again
a
3.5
percent
increase
over
the
previous
year,
three
quarters
of
the
budget,
as
we've
discussed
before
Enterprise
agencies
and
general
fund.
That
is
the
typical
emphasis
that
we
have.
H
And
you'll
remember
Council,
that
when
we
entered
this
budget
preparation
process
and
indeed
our
negotiation
process
with
the
collective
bargaining
units,
we
tried
to
focus
on
four
core
principles:
our
four
corners.
You
see
up
up
there
in
the
upper
left
corner
housing,
an
emphasis
on
housing
and
providing
assistance,
especially
in
this
environment,
a
continued
emphasis.
This
has
always
been
a
Hallmark
of
the
Caster
Administration
next
taking
care
of
our
valuable
employees,
not
only
in
this
pandemic
and
following
the
pandemic,
but
in
this
extraordinary
inflation,
inflationary
environment
and
next
Guardian,
our
fund
balance.
H
H
And
if
you
look
on
the
last
line,
there
we're
coming
back
as
Ms
Travis
mentioned
earlier
in
November,
with
potentially
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
more
in
community
redevelopment
agency
funding,
based
on
the
actions
that
the
CRA
board
takes.
At
that
time.
We
think
that's
a
a
very,
very
large
package
right
now.
It's
only
going
to
get
larger
as
I
mentioned
and
again
emphasizes
the
Mayors
and
your
emphasis
on
the
housing
crisis
we're
facing
right
now
and
moving
on
to
our
employees.
H
Nine
and
a
half
percent
across
the
board
increases
for
all
collective
bargaining
members,
all
the
unpointed
unclassified
positions,
all
the
professionals
and
all
of
the
supervisors.
Again
an
emphasis
on
those
three
R's
you've
heard
the
chief
of
staff
mention
recruitment
of
valuable,
valuable
employees,
potential
employees
and
their
retention
and
reward
of
those
that
are
already
here
again
working
through
covid,
facing
40-year,
High,
inflation
and
and
in
this
very,
very
strong
labor
market.
H
I
won't
go
off
on
a
tangent,
but
you
see-
and
you
read
about
you-
know
the
national
GDP
gross
domestic
product
continuing
to
decline,
and
yet
we
haven't
historically
strong
labor
market,
it's
very,
very
important
to
retain
and
recruit
the
best
and
the
brightest,
especially
now.
H
In
the
third
Corner,
our
fund
balance,
we've
shared
this
with
you
before
we,
we
are
drifting
back
towards
our
outside
of
the
Great
Recession
and
outside
of
the
covid
pandemic.
Our
typical
what
has
become
our
typical
23
24,
speaks
very,
very
well
to
a
number
of
things:
our
financial
resilience,
our
financial
preparedness
in
the
face
of
uncertainty,
and
this
is
a
very
uncertain
economic
and
financial
time.
This
is
a
very
nice
picture
as
we
come
off
of
the
federal
and
state
funding
associated
with
the
pandemic
and
our
level
of
service,
beginning
with
Staffing.
H
These
are
those
positions
broken
down
by
our
strategic
goals,
and
then
we
have
those
same
positions
broken
down
by
the
department.
So
you
can
see
the
emphasis
20
in
the
water
department
they're
changing
how
they
operate
over
there.
Housing
and
Community
Development
Division
nine
positions,
Transportation,
seven
and
I-
won't
read
the
entire
slide
to
you,
but
again
maintaining
and
expanding
that
level
of
service.
When
we
can.
H
And,
of
course,
maintaining
expanding
level
service
is
not
simply
confined
to
staff,
although
we
certainly
need
staff,
nothing
gets
done
without
them,
but
also
continuing
in
our
very
very
ambitious
infrastructure
and
capital
Improvement
program.
You
know
it's
an
investment
as
we've
discussed,
not
only
in
our
present,
but
in
our
future.
You
know,
I'm
I'm,
fond
of
saying
your
five-year
Capital
improve
Improvement
program
is
really
the
city's
Destiny,
and
you
see
it
remains
ambitious.
H
Nearly
two
billion
dollars,
the
continuation
of
the
pipes
program,
with
an
emphasis
in
water
and
wastewater
major
solid
waste,
not
only
Renovations
at
the
waste
to
energy
plant,
but
some
operational
changes
that
are
going
to
lead
to
efficiencies
and
better
service,
and
we've
talked
about
that
significant
investment
in
storm
water,
Council
will
recall
I.
Think
it
was
the
last
council
meeting.
We
led
a
significant
contract
for
the
continuing
success
of
our
storm
water
efforts.
H
In
summary,
Council-
and
you-
you
may
have
inferred
this
from
Mr
Johnson
or
Dr
Newman's
presentation,
but
this
has
got
to
be
one
of
the
most
participatory
and
collaborative
budgets
that
I've
been
involved
in
since
I
got
here
in
2009
and
I
think
it
shows
I
think
we've
got
a
very
tight
quality
product
based
on
all
of
the
dialogue.
H
That's
taken
place
whether
it
was
the
beginning
of
the
Union
negotiations
in
April
and
again
we
got
those
negotiations
finished
prior
to
the
budget,
for
maybe
the
first
time
at
least
maybe
the
first
time
I've
been
here
and
the
mid-year
remember.
We
typically
started
off
with
council,
with
a
bang
at
mid-year
in
May,
giving
you
an
update
as
to
what's
happening
in
the
year,
we're
in
and
preparing
us
for
the
year
that
we're
going
to
enter
I
think
this
budget
accommodates
both
the
mayor
and
your
priorities
and
I.
H
Also
think
and
I've
said
this
before
and
I'm,
not
the
only
one.
It's
an
especially
significant
budget
because
it
accomplishes
so
many
things
in
the
face
of
all
these
challenges
that
we've
had
that
they're
not
of
our
making
40-year
high
inflation
the
pandemic
is
it
over.
Is
it
not
over
I,
don't
know,
but
it
certainly
had
an
impact
and
it
continue
has
to
have
somewhat
of
an
impact.
Just
ask
anybody
who
worked
during
it
chair,
something
that
you
said
recently
kind
of
struck
struck
with
me.
You
mentioned
and
I
think
it
was
correct.
H
There
was
nobody
to
call
and
say:
hey
how'd,
you
all
handle
your
last
pandemic.
I
mean
it
was
it
was
it.
You
know
the
back
office.
We
talk
about
the
sink
or
swim
and
by
the
way,
the
Lake's
on
fire.
You
know
it
was.
It
was
something
for
the
past
couple
of
years
and
you've
heard
the
chief
of
staff
say
this
is
the
busiest
he's
seen
it
in
the
30
years
that
he's
that
he's
been
here?
And
yet
we
are
accomplishing
so
much
my
opinion.
H
We've
said
it
before:
some
of
you
have
said
it
I
think
we're
doing
amazing
things,
I
think
we'll
look
back
and
wonder
at
the
amazing
things
we
managed
to
accomplish
in
the
face
of
all
these
challenges
and
I.
Think
when
we
do
this
budget
providing
for
the
capital
Improvement
program,
the
significant
pay
increases
in
this
environment
I
think
this
budget
will
be
counted
as
one
of
those
amazing
amazing
things.
So
thank
you.
Council
again,
this
won't
be
the
last
time
I.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
your
continuing
efforts.
H
A
Yeah
just
a
couple
of
quick
things
if
I
may
and
and
Mr
chairman,
do
we
ask
questions
in
general
in
the
entire
budget
at
this
time,
or
should
we.
A
Just
making
sure
I
don't
know
if
there
was
set.
Thank
you.
A
couple
of
issues
I
want
to
make
sure
about
and
and
I
I
Know
Chief
Tripp
is
here.
I
see,
Local
754,
here,
I
and
and
chief
trip
can
speak
to
this
later
on.
I
I
wanted
to
make
sure
so
the
funds
appropriate
here
for
Tampa
Fire
Rescue
from
for
district
seven.
A
It's
my
understanding
and
please
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
that
those
funds
could
go
to
assisting
with
response
times
in
33647
in
New
Tampa,
as
well
as
design
for
the
next
station,
where
the
need
is
the
highest
and
all
that
cheap
trip
respond
to
that.
Whenever
the
time
comes
and
and
whatnot
I
know,
this
budget
includes
funds
for
the
returning
citizens
program
which
we're
going
to
be
doing
with
the
county,
which
is
really
important
for
job
training
and
apprenticeships.
A
Also,
the
grant
for
victims
of
crime
for
people
who
have
been
loved
ones
have
been
murdered
or
victims
of
sexual
battery.
What
have
you
to
help
them
with
a
with
a
fund
for
a
transition
and
whatnot
something
I
brought
up
and
I,
see
my
friend
over
there
in
the
back
row,
Phyllis
Gutman,
who
I
love
so
dearly
with
McDonald's
Training,
Center
and
I,
sent
a
memo
to
the
administration
and
I
brought
it
up
last
time
and
and
pardoned
the
late
notice.
But
it
just
came
to
me
at
an
event.
A
I
was
at
last
week,
but
it's
funding
it.
It's
a
very
small
ask
a
program,
an
internship
program
for
people
with
intellectual
disabilities.
Now
I,
don't
have
the
best
math
in
the
world,
but
I
don't
think
it
would
cost
more
than
a
hundred
a
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
dollars
or
so
to
have
ten
departments
have
one
individual
with
special
needs.
A
As
an
internship,
it
could
come
back
to
us
in
six
months
because
I
know
that
takes
time
to
develop
it
Etc
but
and
I
I
mentioned
it
at
the
at
the
council
meeting
last
time
and
what
not
McDonald's
Training
Center
does
a
program
with
Lori
Park
Zoo
and
my
part-time
Aid
Connor
darken
graduated
from
it.
It
was
last
week,
in
fact,
and
it's
and
it's
a
wonderful,
wonderful
program
that
puts
I,
guess
moves
forward.
A
The
the
prior
administration's
autism,
friendly
City
of
Tampa
program
to
having
a
formal
internship
program,
a
paid
internship
program
over
here
and
I'd
love
to
see
that
funded
again,
not
in
a
rush
in
terms
of
bringing
it
back.
We
can
have
it
brought
back
in
April
or
so
because
I
know
that
takes
time,
but
something
I'm
putting
out
there.
A
K
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
of
the
budget.
I
know
we
have
housing
coming
up.
I
know
we
have
Miss
Travis
to
talk
about
housing
in
particular,
so
I'll
save
my
housing
questions
until
then,
but
in
the
meantime,
I
wanted
to
make
a
motion
for
my
fellow
Council
that
can't
aren't
taking
motions,
no.
A
D
G
We've
opened
all
the
public
hearings
now,
so
you
can
ask
questions.
I.
Think
what
Mr
Shelby's
concerned
about
is
that
procedurally
under
state
law,
the
first
action
that
this
Council
needs
to
take
is
to
approve
the
millage
rate,
and
then
you
can
take
action
on
the
budget.
That's
really
I
think
what
he's.
K
Trying
no
problem
I
will
I
will
save
this
for
later.
Then.
J
Wait
since
Mr
Messi
has
explained
that
I
was
going
to
ask
reference
to
fire
for
chief
Kip
to
explain
what
the
plan
is
so
I'll.
Wait
till
after
we
pass
the
note.
F
Yes,
sir,
thank
you
Mr
O'hara
I
mentioned
this
last
time,
but
just
to
remind
everybody
that
the
the
reserve
fund
and
I
don't
remember.
F
The
exact
number
I
think
it's
up
to
like
112
or
something
like
that
when
we
netted
it
out
last
time
out
of
the
amount
that
we
have
to
keep
as
a
minimum
I
think
he
said,
there's
only
about
14
million
in
there
and
that's
really
our
rainy
day
fund,
and
you
know
I
pushed
hard
three
and
a
half
years
ago
for
us
to
put
more
money
in
the
rainy
day
fund
and
we
needed
it
because
we
were
hit
with
covet
I
thought
we
would
get
hit
with
a
recession
and
now
we're
almost
certainly
headed
into
a
recession.
F
And
my
fear
is
that
we're
going
to
be
cutting
services,
as
as
we
mentioned
before,
that
the
reserve
fund,
when
Pam
iorio
left
was
somewhere
around
150
million
and
now
through
the
greatest
run-up
of
American
history
of
the
economy.
It's
still
only
at
about
110
and
so
I
think
that
somehow
it's
not
a
question
I
just
think.
Somehow.
F
We
need
to
get
that
number
back
up,
because
it's
it's
a
scary
situation
with
a
1.8
billion
dollar
budget
that
we
only
have
plus
or
minus
14
million
dollars
such
fund
a
rainy
day
fund
in
case
the
session.
H
No,
no
thank
you,
sir
I
appreciate
you
surfacing
it
now
and,
of
course,
I've
always
appreciated
you
surfacing
it
in
the
past
and
council's
support.
As
you
know,
it's
a
very,
very
important
number
to
us.
It's
a
very,
very
important
number
to
the
rating
agencies.
It
is
a
very
uncertain
time
if,
if
you
want
signs
of
a
strong
economy,
they
are
out
there.
H
If
you
want
signs
of
a
very
poor
economy,
of
course,
they're
out
there
too
we're
comfortable
right
now
with
the
23
24,
but
we
will
always
make
an
effort,
and
especially
if
this
economic
environment
continues
to
be
so
volatile,
we'll
make
an
effort
to
increase
it.
It's
again,
it's
above
our
policy
of
20.
We
like
to
see
it
and
keep
it
above
20,
so
it
will
be
further
to
councilman
Carlson's
point
A,
continuing
effort
on
our
part.
Thank
you.
B
Any
other
college
questions
Mr
O'hara
I'm,
going
to
open
this
up
to
public
comment
at
this
time.
Thank
you,
Council.
Anyone
who
wishes
to
make
public
comment
for
the
fiscal
year
2023
military
and
operating
Capital
Improvement
budgets
can
make
their
comments
at
this
time
and
if
you
would,
please
form
a
line.
My
left
your
right.
L
Oh
I'm,
here
with
Tampa
Bay
community
action
committee
again
to
talk
about
the
funding
for
housing
here
in
Tampa
honestly
disappointed
in
the
allocation
for
the
budget.
I.
Think
leaving
a
lot
of
funding
up
to
the
Future
to
be
dated
is
a
mistake.
When
we
can
already
see
there
is
a
housing
emergency
now,
I
think
we
need
to
be
preparing
to
allocate
more
now,
I
think
relying
too
much
on
very
restricted
grants
for
most
of
housing
budget
is
a
little
weak.
L
We
could
do
more
here
at
the
city
level
to
fund
housing
in
addition
to
that,
so
the
funds
aren't
as
restricted
and
I
find
economic
arguments
against
funding
housing
more
be
kind
of
ridiculous.
When
we've
talked
about
increasing
fund
like
cost
of
living
adjustments
increasing
raises
for
certain
city
council
officials,
we
understand
that
inflation
is
bad
and
that
people
are
being
affected,
but
I
just
don't
see
this
apply
in
terms
of
housing,
and
it's
weird
to
be
here.
L
Like
the
last
meeting
I
budget
hearing,
I
went
to
like
hearing
it
discuss
that
we
could
increase
City
Walk
front
City
sidewalk
funding
by
tenfold,
but
where
is
that
energy
for
housing
when
it's
such
an
important
issue
that
it's
literally
0.1
on
budget
priorities?
You
know
honestly,
the
rainy
days
are
here
when
it
comes
to
the
housing
crisis.
I
think
City
councils
should
act
now
when
it
comes
to
this
budget
I,
don't
think
this
is
an
issue
that
could
wait
personally
and
honestly.
I.
Don't
think
this
is
the
most
participatory
budget.
M
Hello,
my
name
is
Laura
Rodriguez
I'm
from
Tampa
Bay,
community
action
committee
and
I'm
here
to
say
that
once
again,
this
budget
is
extremely
disappointing.
Coming
here
and
listening
to
the
presentations
watching
online,
the
update
on
the
15th
that
there
was
only
money
allocated
from
the
like
Waste
Management
fund
or
the
you
know
the
essential
services
like
nobody
in
this
line
is
asking
y'all
to
defund
essential
services
for
housing.
We
need
both
funded.
M
Both
are
essential,
we're
entering
hurricane
season,
so
we
don't
need
y'all
to
be
doing
this
like
where,
where
are
my
families
from
Puerto
Rico
is
dealing
with
massive
flooding?
Sorry,
it's
really
emotional,
because
it's
the
fifth
year
anniversary
of
hurricane
Maria,
so
we
really
don't
need
y'all
to
be
defunding
that
what
we
need
y'all
to
do
is
take
money
away
from
services
that
aren't
performing
to
where
they
need
like
they
need
to
like
the
police.
So
we
know
that
the
police
have
been
investigated
for
racist
Housing
Programs
this
year.
M
So
what
you'll
need
to
be
doing
is
taking
money
from
the
general
fund
like
y'all
were
saying
you
were
saying
that
housing
is
your
number
one
priority.
Yet
no
money
is
going
to
housing.
Housing
is
like
on
number
one
for
everything
and
anything,
but
again,
there's
no
money.
Y'all
can
even
y'all
can't
even
make
10
for
that
and
honestly,
like
the
person
before
me
said
like
this
is
a
rainy
day
like
we
were
coming
in
here,
drench
because
of
the
rain
like
Now's
the
Time
to
act.
M
Now
and
honestly,
it
was
really
disappointing.
The
last
budget
meeting
how
y'all
were
willing
to
make
motions
to
submit
or
to
push
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
into
other
things,
but
nobody
had
the
guts
to
make
a
motion
to
move
money
to
housing
like
y'all
just
said:
oh,
let's,
let's
it's
our
number
one
priority.
Let's
think
about
this.
Let's
think
about
this
real
hard
and
then
nothing
happened.
It's
embarrassing!
M
It's
like
laughable,
so
yeah
I
encourage
you
to
not
trust
this
budget,
like
you
all,
need
to
take
power
and
responsibility
for
what's
in
your
hands
now,
y'all
can't
blame
it
on
the
mayor's
budget.
It's
already
over
here,
y'all
already
voted
yes
on
it
to
take
it.
So
now
do
something
with
it.
Thank
you.
N
N
I
can't
think
of
a
bigger
insult
to
come
up
here
and
tell
you
that
they
are
priority.
Their
first
priority
is
housing
every
week.
People
come
out
here
and
say
not
enough
money
for
housing,
not
enough
priority
being
done,
not
any
action
being
taken,
and
they
come
out
here
and
pretend
as
if
they
are
working
for
us.
N
O
Yeah
David,
Jones
tbcac,
also
speaking
about
housing,
I,
think
that
more
money
should
be
allocated
from
the
general
fund
to
go
towards
housing.
O
I
know
there
was
a
big
conversation
around
the
end
of
last
meeting
about
pushing
what
10
you
know,
making
the
housing
budget
10,
which
I
fully
agree
with
you
know
we're
at
a
time
of
Crisis
folks
are
saying
that
folks
have
been
saying
that
we,
you
know,
we've
been
hearing
that
from
pretty
much
every
front
in
the
city
about
how
big
this
crisis
is
so
Now's
the
Time
to
act.
So
yes,
finding
that
money
is
law
completely
necessary
and
from
what
it
looks
like
completely
doable.
O
O
You
know
our
pipe
systems
is
effective
in
order
to
fund
housing.
Just
because
you
know
those
things
are
also
going
to
fall
apart
within
the
next
two
to
three
years.
You
know
the
pipes
up
in
North
Tampa
are
plastic
pipes
that
virtually
been
struggling
at
my
neighborhood
this
last
three
months.
O
So
that's
not
the
solution
as
much
as
pulling
it
from
some
of
the
lacking
Industries
like
that
police
budget,
which
is
taking
up
40
percent
40
percent,
that
the
vast
majority
of
people
in
Tampa
don't
agree
with
or
don't
really
see
a
point
of.
Yes.
Thank
you.
L
Hello,
my
name
is
Taylor
cook
I'm,
with
Tampa
Bay,
community
action
committee
and
I'm
also
here
to
talk
about
housing,
I
think
last
time,
I
was
really
angry,
but
now
I'm
just
really
disappointed.
I
think
last
time,
I
was
wrongfully
hopeful
that
we
would
get
at
least
10
percent
of
the
general
fund,
and
we
can't
even
get
that
we
can
get
a
potential
5.5
million
dollars.
Nobody
wants
a
potential.
5.5
million
people
want
like
actual
actions.
L
You
know
we
can
talk
about
how
we
are
worried
about
people
not
coming
to
City
Council
meetings
not
participating
in
these
budget
hearings,
but
why
would
anyone
want
to
when
you
guys
aren't
working
for
us?
This
includes
city,
council
and
the
mayor's
office
when
we
come
out
here
time
and
time
again,
voice
our
concerns
and
they're
clearly
not
being
heard.
You
know
this
is
really
incredibly
disheartening.
It's
undemocratic
and
it's
not
fair
for
people
to
spend
time
away
from
their
families,
come
straight
from
after
work
to
come
to
these
meetings.
P
Good
evening
my
name
is
Peyton
hoey
and
I'm
with
the
Tampa
Tenants
Union.
We
are
here
tonight
because
the
working
people
of
Tampa
have
been
suffering
under
a
housing
emergency
for
almost
two
years
now
and
Jane
Caster's
year.
2023
yearly
budget
fails
the
people
and
fails
to
address
this
housing
crisis.
We
see
a
15
million
dollar
increase
in
the
police
department
budget
from
2021,
while
they
continuously
brutalize
and
harm
our
community.
P
P
The
public
is
still
facing
the
consequences
from
this
renting
rollback
program,
whereas
entire
families
were
evicted
for
the
alleged
arrests
of
one
member,
the
same
Police
Department
that
not
only
allowed
but
encouraged
the
displacement
of
black
and
brown
Children
and
Families
is
being
rewarded
for
their
actions.
The
program
isn't
completely
under
investigation
by
the
federal
department
of
justice
for
being
racist.
Again,
this
is
the
investigated
by
the
doj,
and
that
is
not
including
the
biking
while
black
program,
which
continues
to
ravage
the
communities
of
Tampa
with
90
of
those
stop
being
black.
P
This
program
is
clearly
racist
backwards
and
unacceptable.
Yet
it
continues
to
go
without
the
city,
even
pretending,
to
take
accountability.
The
people
are
speaking
right
now,
but
will
you
listen
to
us
because
we
don't
need
new
police
cars?
We
don't
want
199
million
in
police
funds
and
we
cannot
continue
to
reward
these
crooked
cops.
P
We
need
money
to
truly
fund
public
city-owned
housing,
Universal
right
to
council,
to
those
facing
evictions,
investment
in
public
transit
and
in
education,
Tampa
Tenants
Union
also
demands
40
million
dollars
from
the
American
Rescue
plan
to
go
to
the
Tampa,
move-in
and
rental
assistance
program.
City
council
is
not
too
late
vote
no
to
this
budget
and
yes
to
one
that
actually
really
represents
your
constituents.
Thank
you.
Q
Hi,
my
name
is
Robert
Ewing
I'm,
also
with
the
Tampa
Tenants,
Union
and
I
agree
with
most
of
the
other
speakers.
This
budget
is
disappointing
and
it's
not
only
disappointing.
It's
it's
criminal,
importing
people
and
tenants
in
the
city
are
struggling
not
being
able
to
afford
their
Iran
and
living
in
unsafe
living
conditions,
and
this
budget
does
not
put
even
like
a
fraction
of
the
money
necessary
towards
addressing
the
unprecedented
housing
crisis
that
we're
in
at
this
moment.
Q
N
Hello,
my
name
is
Alia
bilkater
I'm,
a
new
resident
of
Tampa,
and
this
is
the
first
time
I'm
able
to
make
it
out
to
a
city
hall
meeting
I
work
a
nine
to
five,
so
you
know,
I
I
can't
participate
in
the
process
when
it
takes
when
public
comment
takes
place
during
the
working
day,
but
I'm
here
and
I
want
to
say.
It
surprises
me
that
you
know
my
understanding.
N
Is
this
body
at
an
earlier
time,
declared
it
to
be
a
Housing
state
of
emergency
and
although
at
the
time
it
refused
to
let
people
vote
on
rent
control
now
when
this
budget
comes
in
and
there
is
no
actual
concrete
money
going
towards
housing,
just
Promises
of
future
money
potential
money
coming
in
that
you
know
we're
just
gonna
accept
this.
N
When
we,
when
we
have
declared
that
we
are
in
a
Housing
state
of
emergency,
it
doesn't
make
sense,
it
doesn't
make
sense
when
you
think
about
it
from
the
perspective
of
isn't
government
supposed
to
serve
the
people
and
I
want
to
thank.
You
know
Tampa
community
action
committee
and
the
Tampa
Tenants
Union
for
coming
out
here
tonight
and
declaring
that
and
I
want
to
say.
The
reason
that
all
of
us
came
out
here
today
is
because
people
still
take
the
Tampa
City
Council
seriously.
N
People
still
take
the
mayor's
office
seriously
and
we
want
to
see
you
guys
take
action.
We
want
to
see
you
guys
alleviate
this
housing
crisis.
There
are
some
real
good
policy
points
that
could
be.
You
know
brought
into
action
right
to
council
for
tenants
who
are
facing
evictions.
This
helped
many
many
New
York
residents
stay
in
their
homes
when
they
were
being
evicted
because
they
actually
now
had
a
chance
to
challenge
their
landlords
in
court.
This
is
something
that
we
could
do
here
in
Tampa.
N
This
is
something
concrete
that
could
be
used
to
help
the
renters
of
Tampa
Bay,
but
it
seems
more
and
more
clear
to
me
every
day
that
you
know
the
mayor
and
a
large
portion
of
the
city
government
does
not
seem
to
actually
be
interested
in
helping
to
serve
the
people
of
temp
the
working
people
of
Tampa.
Instead,
they
seem
to
be
very
interested
in
helping
the
developers.
N
You
know
the
developers
who
backed
Jane
Caster's
campaign
in
helping
boost
up
property
prices
in
Tampa
right,
that's
not
something
that
actually
benefits
the
working
class
of
Tampa,
but
it
is
something
that
benefits
the
developers,
the
people
who
own
property,
and
that
is
ultimately
what
it
seems
to
be
all
about.
But
you
know
if
you
want
to
continue
to
be
taken
seriously,
please
take
action.
Q
Hello,
my
name
is
laith
I'm
also
with
the
Tampa
Bay
community
action
committee
and
I'm
here
to
speak
about
housing.
I,
think
this
budget,
as
everybody
has
said
before,
is
very
disappointing
in
terms
of
the
money
allocated
to
housing
and
we
do
want
more
money
for
housing,
but
we
don't
want
that
money
taken
out
of
other
essential
Services.
You
know
we
have
we're
in
a
time
of
crisis
at
this
point
and
we
keep
hearing
about
this.
You
know
rainy
day
fund
well,
I
mean
we're
headed
into
a
recession.
Q
We're
in
a
recession
folks
are
can't
afford
rent
I
mean
now
is
the
time
to
put
some
of
that
money
to
use.
You
know,
use
and
not.
You
know,
take
money
from
essential
services
that
we
actually
need.
I
mean
people
come
here.
Every
Thursday
and
y'all
hear
about
you
know
Timber
Falls
you
hear
about
Silver
Oaks
places
literally
falling
apart,
and
5.5
million
isn't
going
to
fix.
Like
one
place,
you
know
let
alone
build
new
places,
for
people
to
be
able
will
live
in,
give
more
assistance
for
folks
who
are
going
to
be,
you
know.
Q
Otherwise,
you
know
can't
afford
rent
in
the
city
of
Tampa,
and
we
hear
talks
about.
You
know
people
finding
people
to
work
for
the
city,
I
mean
if
people
who
are
working
class
folks
can't
afford
to
live
in
the
city
can't
afford
to
pay
rent
in
the
city.
Folks
are
moving
out
of
Tampa
moving
all
over
to
outskirts
of
Tampa.
People
are
going
to
be
able
to
work
in
the
city,
and
so
what
we
really
need
is
more
money
for
housing.
Q
D
Good
evening,
council
members,
my
name
is
Fella
Scotsman
and,
as
we
approach
October,
which
is
disability,
employment,
Awareness
Month,
we
at
McDonald
Training
Center
MTC
thank
council
member
Vieira
for
his
continued
support
and
advocacy
for
people
with
disabilities.
We
appreciate
his
commitment
and
that
of
the
council
to
provide
opportunities
for
individuals
with
disabilities
for
full
inclusion
at
McDonald
Training
Center.
We
are
committed
to
employment
programs
and
training
opportunities
that
he
is
suggesting
which
can
make
the
difference
between
a
person
having
a
career
rather
than
a
lifetime
of
entry-level
jobs.
R
Good
evening,
Council
Andrew,
Carter,
Tampa,
firefighters,
Local
754
president
I'm
joined
here
today
with
Matt
Cohan
and
Jeff
Allred
vice
president
and
Treasurer
I
just
want
to
say
first
off.
Thank
you
once
again
on
behalf
of
the
700
plus
members
of
Tampa
firefighters,
for
unanimously
approving
our
collective
bargaining
agreement.
R
This
is,
as
you
heard,
for
the
first
time
able
to
roll
in
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
fiscal
year
and
not
still
be
negotiating
in
February
March.
I.
Just
want
to
remind
you
guys
that
the
budget
that
you
guys
are
approving
is
the
vehicle
that
allows
us
to
receive
the
benefits
that
we've
negotiated
and
you
guys
have
previously
approved
all
of
the
city.
R
Employees
and
their
families
are
counting
on
that
I'm
certain
that,
if
the
need
arises
in
the
middle
of
the
year
that
the
fire
chief
chief
of
staff,
the
mayor
as
well
as
city
council,
can
find
ways
to
facilitate
us
with
mid-year
Rolling
Stock
station
designs,
employees.
We
need
to
also
start
working
with
the
developers.
R
All
the
the
land
use
that
you
guys
approve
needs
to
come
with
some
caveats
as
to
creating
some
brick
and
mortar,
and
the
city
provides
the
employees
and
the
Rolling
Stock
for
those
stations
once
again,
I
want
to
thank
Dennis
rohero
and
his
office
staff
for
being
Wizards
with
the
budget,
as
well
as
you
guys
for
your
continued
support
for
all
employees.
The
ATU
Steve
Simon's,
unable
to
be
here
he's
at
an
International
Convention,
as
well
as
your
continued
support
for
fire
and
police.
Thank
you.
E
Darla
Portman
police,
benevolent
Association
president
I'm,
also
here
with
vice
president
Brandon
Barclay,
first
and
foremost,
I,
want
to
thank
all
of
you
at
city
council
for
voting
unanimously
to
know
to
ratify
all
three
Union
contracts.
Last
summer
you
guys
did
a
good
job.
The
PBA,
the
iff
and
the
ATU
worked
hard
to
make
all
of
our
contracts
be
negotiated,
signed
and
ready
for
city
council
before
the
budget
was
set.
E
I
believe
that
that
was
the
first
time
in
City's
history
that
that
actually
happened,
and
it
was
thanks
to
Chief,
Bennett
and
also
CFO
Rogero,
to
make
sure
that
that
took
place.
The
employees
of
our
great
City
look
forward
to
a
smooth
transition
on
October
1st.
However,
we
can
only
do
that
if
city
council
passes
the
second
reading
of
the
budget,
I
encourage
all
of
you
to
vote
unanimously
yesterday,
foreign,
so
the
city
can
move
forward
in
efficiency
to
the
next
fiscal
year.
Thank
you
appreciate
it.
Thank.
B
B
E
Yes,
sir,
can
you
hear
me
yes,
I
know
you
guys
would
miss
me
if
I
didn't
show
up
all
the
voices
who
are
here
speaking
about
more
money
for
public
housing
or
for
housing
period.
I
need
to
lean
into
this
all
for
transportation
tax.
The
offer
Transportation
tax
needs
to
be
needs
to
be
passed.
E
It
is
currently
the
current
cost
of
of
Transportation
in
the
city
of
Tampa
is
18,
which
is
double
the
national
average.
If
we
can
get
the
transportation
costs
down,
then
we
can
certainly
make
Headway
in
other
areas
so
that
money
can
be
used
to
be
moved
to
other
areas.
So
take
that
into
consideration
when
you're
having
your
next
meeting
folks,
we
have
to
examine
all
the
funding
sources
and
we
need
more
Public
Safety
funding.
We
need
impact
fees
for
Public
Safety.
We
need
more
fire
stations,
we
need
more,
our
EMS.
E
We
need
the
ability
to
have
more
EMS
workers
to
come
and
and
we're
gonna
have
to
find
funding
somewhere.
I'd
like
to
also
point
out
that
the
market
as
a
filter
and
property
manager,
the
market
is
beginning
to
shift
you're,
seeing
more
apartment
complexes
that
are
offering
a
free
month.
You're
seeing
more
apartment
complexes
come
online.
We
have
thousands
of
units
in
the
shoot
to
come
in
online
in
the
next
year
or
two
and
and
they
will
impact
the
market.
E
A
lot
of
our
problems
in
the
last
six
months
have
been
due
to
supply
and
demand.
We
had
lots
and
lots
of
people
moving
here
and
not
enough
and
way
more
competition
for
any
units
than
we
possibly
had
available.
So
I
just
want
folks
to
consider
that
I'd
really
like
to
know
where
my
6.6
million
went
for
the
the
Tyson
project.
There
was
7.1
million
there
last
year
and
now
there's
731
000..
If
anybody
figures
out
the
answer
to
that,
that
would
be
great
and
I'm
really
really
Disturbed.
E
That
Joe
Johnson
has
resigned
from
our
budget
committee
because
he
was
really
on
point.
Thank
you
have
a
good
day.
J
B
B
J
You
Mr
chairman
for
that.
You
know
as
I
sit
back
and
I
look
at
these
young
people
out
here
in
the
audience.
It
reminds
me
of
on
Sunday,
when
my
daughter
called
she
said
Dad,
he
says:
don't
y'all
have
some
kind
of
rent
cap
in
this
city.
I
said
that's
what
you
say.
I
said
Dad,
don't
you
have
some
kind
of
Red
Cap
in
the
city?
I
said:
what
do
you
ask?
J
J
So
when
I
hear
these
young
people
come
here
and
talk,
because
my
daughter
has
three
kids
so
I
know
I've
gotta
I
want
the
helper,
so
don't
think
it
goes
on.
Deaf
is
young
people
I
hear
you
I
feel
you
just
don't
know
how
I'm
gonna
really
help
you,
because
I
tried
to
help
you
once
but
I
couldn't
get
there
to
me.
It's
the
people's
money
is
the
people's
voice.
I,
always
believe
that
couldn't
get
it
there.
We
try
to
take
a
vote
the
last
time
and
I'm.
J
J
J
E
K
We're
going
to
keep
working
on
this
and
I
I
do
appreciate
the
energy
and
effort,
because
it
does
remind
me
of
when
I
was
younger
and
lived
in
Gainesville
and
did
that
this
very
same
thing
was
very
active
and
did
a
lot
of
stuff
with
politics
before
I
moved
to
Tampa.
So
I
really
do
appreciate
your
voices
and
they
aren't
unheard.
K
K
We
I
do
know
of
several
staff
members
who
come
and
have
had
trouble
finding
housing,
whether
or
not
they're
living
in
a
car
or
are
about
to
get
kicked
out
of
an
apartment,
and
what
do
they
do
so
by
by
approving
this
nine
and
a
half
percent
raise?
We
are
helping
our
employees
keep
their
housing
and
keep
their
Stay
Stay,
where
they
are
help
their
families.
K
I
also
wanted
to.
Let
you
know
that
there
is
currently
a
pilot
project
for
evictions
dealing
with
with
lawyers
for
evictions,
so
that
actually,
that
pilot
project
is
beginning
soon,
I
believe
Miss.
K
Travis
can
talk
about
that
when
she
comes
up,
but
I
did
want
to
let
you
know
that
we
did
hear
you
and
we
are
working
on
that
and
also
to
please
attend
I,
believe
it
is
the
October
not
27th,
maybe
14th,
meeting
where
Miss
Travis
is
going
to
give
us
an
update
on
how
the
housing
advisory
office
is
going
Advocacy
Office.
No,
it
is
not
then,
but
I
thought
I
had
it
on
my
calendar.
For
that,
maybe
it
is
it's.
S
S
Good
evening
Council
Nicole
Travis
administrative
development
and
Economic
Opportunity,
yes
ma'am,
you
do
have
it
on
the
calendar
for
the
tenant,
Advocacy
Office
or
what
I'm
calling
it's
tenant
services
for
an
update,
but
that
office
isn't
stood
up
until
October.
1St
I
will
not
have
anything
to
provide
you
because
that's
as
a
part
of
this
budget
includes
the
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
you've
allocated
for
the
tenant
Services
team
to
start
doing
that.
S
So
we
that
office
isn't
going
to
be
up
in
time,
and
so
the
reason
I'm
saying
no,
it's
not
for
a
lack
of
wanting
to
report
I
can
report
on
anything
else,
housing
related
that
you
want
to.
But
regarding
the
the
tenant
Services
team,
we
would
not
have
anything
to
report
at
that
time.
It's
too
close
to
me.
K
Thank
you
and
that
actually
goes
forward
to
other
things.
I
wanted
to
talk
about
with
this
budget
and
that
my
goal
was
to
get
to
10
percent
in
in
closer
further
discussions
with
the
housing
department,
Miss
Travis,
specifically
Mr
O'hara.
Also
it
concerns
me
that
in
the
20
in
the
fiscal
year
2022
we
allocated
five
million
dollars,
but
because
of
getting
everything
started,
getting
things
up
and
running
only
1.3
million
was
allocated
or
I'm
sorry
was
it's
been
spent.
Thank
you.
K
Let's,
let's
look
for
the
simple
verb
here
spent
so
right
now
we
have
3.6
million
dollars
left
over
that's
going
to
roll
over.
So
instead
of
just
looking
at
the
numbers
for
me,
it's
I'm
going
to
be
looking
at
how
this
money
is
spent.
K
So
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
proposing
and
I
don't
think
I
can
do
it
yet,
but
I'll
tell
you
what
I
will
be
proposing
is
requesting
a
quarterly
budget
update
around
these
five
housing
buckets
and
Miss
Travis
I
know
we'll
talk
about
this
in
a
minute:
homelessness,
Service,
public
services,
rental
assistance,
homeownership
and
AC
acquisition
and
rehab.
K
That
includes
funds
allocated
for
the
full
year
expended
during
the
quarter
in
cumbered
during
the
quarter
and
left
available,
so
that
we
can
all
talk
about
this
as
a
community
as
the
year
goes
on
to
find
out
to
not
just
say:
okay,
we're
at
we're
allocating
this
amount
of
money.
But
what
are
we
doing
with
the
money?
How
is
it
being?
Is
it
being
used
and
if
it's
not
being
used,
why
not?
What
are
the
roadblocks
and
how
can
we
help
staff?
K
So
one
of
the
best
ways
we
can
help
staff
is
we're
hiring
nine
new
people
in
the
housing
department
and
if
I'm
Miss
Travis
will
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
those
those
people
haven't
been
hired
yet
because
it's
not
October
one.
So
we
have
to.
We
have
to
go
through
the
whole
process
of
hiring
not
trying
to
make
excuses,
I'm
just
trying
to
explain
the
system
and
how
we're
going
how
this
is
going
to
have
to
occur.
K
The
five
and
a
half
million
from
Solid
Waste
I
appreciate
that
you
don't
want
to
take
money
away
from
another
project,
but
this
is
really
where
we're
getting
the
money
from.
At
this
point,
we
are
putting
a
ton
of
money
into
preparation
and
resilience.
So
if
you
looked
at
those
budgets,
when
you
put
the
budget
up
of
the
capital
Improvement
projects,
we
had
the
most
money
going
toward
water
and
storm
water
and
that's
our
pipes,
project
and
our
replacement
of
pipes,
project
or
rather
stormwater
project.
K
And
then
this
money
was
going
to
go
towards
solid
waste
because
we
have
to
rebuild
our
entire
solid
waste.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
mayor's
thought
toward
this
and
how
we're
really
focusing
on
on
the
future,
which
hasn't
been
done
in
past
administrations.
It
hasn't
been
done
for
many
years
and
and
we're
making
up
for
lost
time.
But
it
does
not
me.
It
means
we
don't
have
a
ton
of
money
for
this.
So
what
I'm
looking
at
is
the
26.4
million
I.
Don't
just
look
at
that
I'm.
K
Looking
at
the
3.6
million,
that's
left
over
I'm,
looking
in
the
five
and
a
half
million
from
solid
waste
that
again
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
quarterly.
So
at
the
half
year
mark,
let's
see
what
it
looks
like,
how
are
we
using
the
housing
money
we
have
and
the
5.5
million
can?
Is
it
time?
If,
if
we
take
a
look
at
the
study,
does
it
work?
Can
we
move
the
money?
Can
we
use
the
money
in
the
fiscal
year
because
that's
the
part,
that's
concerning
me.
K
Most
of
all
is
that
we
had
money
in
this
fund
that
we
weren't
able
to
expend.
So
that
is
really
going
to
be
my
focus
this
next
year
and
then
the
10.6
that
we're
possibly
getting
from
the
CRA
that
if
you
missed
the
meeting
just
and
well
I
guess
it's
been
two
hours
now,
but
the
five
o'clock
meeting
we
had
a.
K
We
had
a
quite
a
lengthy
discussion
on
how
we
are
going
to
ask
the
cras
to
pay
for
or
to
to
step
it
up
and
give
more
money
toward
affordable
housing
and
how
that
might
look
and
how
it's
not
going
to
look
the
same
in
every
CRA,
some
of
it's
going
to
be
acquisition
buying
land,
some
of
it's
going
to
be
toward
homeownership
goals.
Some
of
it's
towards
rental
assistance.
I
wish
I
could
say
this
issues.
K
K
but
I
feel
like
we
clawed
some
money
and
I
hope.
You
can
see
that
that
I
that
we're
clawing
the
money.
In
fact,
I
don't
know
how
much
that,
in
those
nine
full-time
housing
department,
employees
are
going
to
cost,
but
I'd
like
to
throw
that
money
in
there
too,
because
this
that
money,
wouldn't
that
we
wouldn't
be
hiring
nine
more
housing
people
if
we
didn't
have
a
housing
crisis,
so
I
really
do
want
to
appreciate,
say
thank
you
to
Nicole
Travis
and
her
team
for
doing
what
they
can.
K
But
my
promise
is
this.
This
is
not
a
finished
budget.
It's
not
done
and
we're
finished
tonight
we're
going
to
keep
at
it.
I'm
going
to
have
a
quarter,
we're
going
to
have
quarterly
quarterly
updates
and
they
are
going
to
be
public.
Well,
I'm,
not
going
to
ask
at
least
I
hope
my
brother
and
agree
with
me,
but
that's
going
to
be
my
motion
that
we're
all
going
to
sit
down
and
talk
about
this.
Where
is
the
money
going?
How
is
it
being
allocated?
A
A
You
know
one
bucket
and
I'll
support
your
motion
whenever
it's
made
and
we're
allowed
to
go
on
it.
Councilwoman
hurt
I
would
also
suggest
another
bucket
on.
We
were
going
to
have
a
disability,
housing,
Workshop
Thursday,
but
I'm
moving
it
because
of
the
charter.
Maybe
take
a
look
at
the
the
unique
area
of
disability
related
housing
for
people
with
disabilities,
whether
it's
intellectual,
physical
Etc
but
I'll
be
glad
to
support
it.
You
know
with
regards
to
the
numbers
you
just
went
through
with
that
were
just
cited
on
housing.
A
It
points
to
a
very
historic
City
of
Tampa
Budget
on
housing,
I
always
say
and
I've
said
this
for
years.
As
an
elected
official
I,
don't
like
to
write
political
checks
that
I
can't
cash
I
don't
like
to
make
promises,
especially
to
people
who
are
hurting
that
I,
don't
feel
in
my
own
heart,
in
my
own
mind,
are
going
to
wound
up
getting
the
results
that
are
promised
or
that
are
expected
by
the
public.
There
are
various
proposals
that
have
been
put
forth
with
regards
to
housing.
A
Some
of
them
I
believe
fall
under
that
political
checks.
Analysis
that
I
put
this
clearly
doesn't.
This
is
something
that
is
dollar
for
dollar,
a
very,
very
historic
investment
in
in
housing
and
obviously
I'm
going
to
support
that
110
percent.
You
know
we're
we're
Limited
in
the
city
of
Tampa
budget
with
regards
to
issues
like
housing.
A
Two-Thirds
of
our
budget
goes
to
Public
Safety
I
support
that
110,
but
we
are
making
every
effort
that
we
can
to
fund
housing
for
people
in
the
city
of
Tampa,
and
these
are
very,
very
historic
allotments.
A
So
again,
these
are
steps
that
are
going
to
be
put
forward
that
are
really
really
going
to
improve
people's
lives.
In
the
middle
of
a
historical
house
in
crisis
that
I
think
is
very,
very
good
in
that
regard,
and
that's
it.
Thank
you,
sir.
T
Quick,
thank
you,
council,
member
hertek,
for
your
leadership.
I
think
you
said
it
all,
and
this
doesn't
end
here
tonight.
T
K
I
just
wanted
to
reply
to
councilman
Vieira
and
the
only
reason
I
said.
The
five
buckets
is
because
that
is
how
the
funding
is
allocated
via
I.
Don't
know
if
the
housing
department
chose
this
way
or
but
it's
there,
it's
their
five
buckets
of
homelessness,
Services,
homeless,
Services,
Public,
Services,
rental
assistance,
home
ownership
and
acquisition
and
rehab,
and
since
they
already
have
the
monies
going
into
those
funds,
we'll
have
to
find
out
where
that
would
fall.
I
don't
disagree
with
that,
but
I
don't
know
that
a
separate
category
is
necessarily
warranted.
C
Miranda,
no,
no
thank
you.
I
just
want
to
say
a
statement
regarding
the
budget.
So
far
there
was
mentioned
that
the
fire
and
police
take
about
three
quarters
of
the
of
the
money
from
ad
valorem
taxes,
and
what
it
is
is
this.
This
is
the
first
year
that
the
budget
between
the
fire
and
police
and
the
budget
that
we
collect
from
Amber
alarm
taxes
is
only
minus
25
million.
C
In
past
years,
the
budget
that
we
collected,
the
budget
of
fire
police
and
we've
collected
all
the
city
and
all
the
envelope
taxes
was
over
50
million
minus.
So
we
have
made
some
strides.
That's
why
there's
some
money
said
go
into
other
directions
and
I
appreciate
everyone
saying
on
Council
I
appreciate
what
I've
heard
today.
Thank
you
very
much.
F
Yes,
sir,
thank
you
just
to
add,
add
to
you
or
or
add
some
additional
comments
to
what
my
colleague
said
in
terms
of
the
salary
increases.
I
100
agree
with
it
and
I've
said
this
before,
but
for
anybody
who's
watching.
For
the
first
time
you
go
back
to
the
Great
Recession.
F
The
staff
in
the
city
of
Tampa
did
not
have
any
raises
for
many
years
and,
as
we
came
out
of
their
recession,
the
the
as
I
understand
that
the
raises
did
not
keep
up
with
inflation,
and
now,
just
this
year
alone,
we've
got
about
nine
percent
inflation.
So
you
you
look
at
a
nine
percent
increase
of
Staff
in
this
one
year.
F
That
just
makes
them
even
with
this
one
year
and
that's
what
you
know:
I've
done
it
I've
in
my
own
company
I've,
given
an
inflation
increase
and
I
think
most
organizations
have
given
inflation
increases
because
it's
necessary.
As
my
colleague
mentioned,
we
need
our
own
staff
members
to
be
able
to
afford
food
and
housing
and
other
things
we
don't
want.
F
F
But
we
need
to
make
sure
we
pay
the
good
people
well
so
that
we
can
attract
and
retain
them.
Next,
when
talking
about
housing,
this
city
council
has
been
in
favor
of
Housing
and
been
talking
about
it.
Since
we
first
got
elected,
it
was
a
major
priority
of
the
city
council
before
as
part
of
the
administration's
major
priorities
about
three
years
ago
sitting
as
a
CRA
board,
which
is
city
council
sitting
with
another
hat,
and
as
my
colleague
mentioned,
we
met
at
five
o'clock.
F
Today,
we
set
aside,
we
asked
our
staff
CRA
staff
to
set
aside
30
of
the
CRA
money
for
affordable
housing.
Unfortunately,
the
staff
that
were
assigned
by
the
city
by
the
administration
just
decided
to
ignore
that,
and
now
we're
trying
to
catch
up
had
they
allowed
us
to
spend
that
or
enabled
us
to
spend
the
money
that
we
supposedly
control
two
years
ago.
We
might
have
been
a
lot
farther
along
in
this
in
our
own
budget
that
we
met
on
a
couple
hours
ago.
F
We
said
we
we
reaffirmed
that
we
want
to
spend
30
percent
and
we're
trying
to
work
with
staff
to
allocate
it
quickly
and
find
the
highest
and
best
use
for
those
funds,
so
that
houses
and
hopefully
get
get
people
to
buy
homes
the
if,
if
you
all
the
folks
in
the
community,
if
you
remember
two
weeks
ago,
we
city
council
agreed
with
you
and
we
asked
the
administration
to
put
in
10
for
a
housing
and
they
ignored
our
request.
F
Two
weeks
ago,
I
voted
against
a
budget
because
I
had
many
problems
with
it.
Not
a
single
person
from
the
mayor's
office
or
staff
called
me
to
ask
me
why
I
was
concerned
about
it
or
to
follow
up
on
any
of
the
comments
I
made,
and
so,
if,
if
you
feel
frustrated
that
the
mayor's
office
is
ignoring,
you
believe
me
I
feel
frustrated
as
well,
because
they're
ignoring
me
and
some
of
counsel,
we've
got
to
be
able
to
move
forward
with
this
community.
F
When
the
mayor's
office
wants
something
like
a
new
office
for
their
staff,
they
decided
for
500
new
staff.
Instead
of
renting
space,
they
decided
to
spend
108
million
out
of
general
fund
money
and
when
I
asked
a
couple
weeks
ago,
can
we
move?
Can
we
maybe
move
the
water
department
folks
in
there
and
use
some
of
the
Enterprise
funds
to
offset
that?
So
we
could
use
some
of
that
money
for
affordable
housing.
F
They
said
no
when
and
then,
if
you
add
up
the
108
million
dollars
for
the
the
new
office
building
for
500
people
and
you've,
had
the
interest
they're
very
willing
to
bond
that
out,
they're
not
coming
to
us
to
bond
housing
but
they'll
bond
that
out
to
71
million
dollars
for
interest,
probably
another
40
million
or
more
for
O
M
over
the
life
cycle
of
that
office.
F
It's
going
to
be
probably
220,
plus
million
dollars
that
was
pushed
through
very
quickly
without
a
competitive
bid
by
the
way,
except
through
an
archaic
interpretation
by
the
legal
department.
I,
don't
see
the
same
initiative
from
the
administration
on
housing,
unfortunately
totally
to
tap
a
two
to
six
billion
dollar
project
that
the
public
doesn't
want.
There's
a
whole
team
of
people
in
the
administration,
including
the
the
resiliency
officer,
which
is
a
great
hire
by
them
there.
F
It's
apparently
spending
most
of
his
time
trying
to
sell
increasing
water
rates
to
drink
toilet
water
to
the
public
when
we
don't
need
it
and
the
public
doesn't
want
it.
The
bottom
line
for
the
public
is
that
this
city
council
is
trying
to
listen
we're
trying
to
follow
up.
We
need
your
help.
C
S
Good
evening,
Council
Nicole,
Travis,
administrator
of
development
and
Economic
Opportunity
I
didn't
have
a
formal
presentation
for
you,
but
I
have
taken
notes
through
the
public
comments
and
council
member
comments.
Also,
there
was
a
request
by
councilman
her
attack
to
get
a
snapshot
of
what
has
been
allocated
in
these
different
buckets
over
the
last
three
fiscal
years.
So,
if
you
had
allow
me
the
opportunity
to
make
some
general
comments
and
present
that
information-
and
so
yes,
sir.
J
S
When
Mr
Carlson
says
that
the
mayor's
office
has
not
been
responsive
to
housing,
I
am
the
mayor's
office.
I
am
the
mayor's
office,
and
so
I
would
contend
that
I
have
been
very
responsive
to
this
Council
housing.
Affordability
is
in
the
mayor's
T3
plan
that
was
was
presented
in
2019
when
she
took
office.
S
It's
what
I
read
before
I
took
this
position
and
I
would
contend
that
I
have
been
in
front
of
you
almost
every
week,
talking
about
housing
and
providing
new
Solutions
So
when
you
say
make
a
comment
that
the
mayor's
office
has
not
been
responsive
to
the
housing
crisis.
I
take
a
personal
affront
to
that,
because
I
have
been
working,
my
tail
off
to
provide
Solutions
with
a
small
But
Mighty
team
that
has
been
creative
in
finding
Solutions
and
continuing
to
perform.
S
When
you
ask
this
too,
this
Administration
stood
up
after
hearing
a
lot
of
public
testimony
in
one
of
your
Council
meetings
and
your
concern.
A
housing
hotline
I
was
in
LA
for
work,
came
back,
we're,
saying
we're
doing
a
housing
hotline,
48
Hours.
The
hotline
was
up
and
staffed
by
us
doing
the
essential
functions
of
the
positions.
When
we
assign
staff
for
a
hurricane
and
there's
a
crisis,
we
have
Know
Your,
Role
and
there's
employees
that
are
assigned.
S
We
declare
this
a
crisis,
not
the
same
as
a
hurricane,
but
a
crisis.
Nonetheless,
that's
how
we
got
employees
to
work
that
housing
hotline
which,
by
the
way
it
still
continues
to
this
day
until
we
turn
it
over
to
the
tenant
service
team,
when
that
office
is
stood
up
with
full-time
employees,
so
I
am
the
mayor's
office.
Okay,
the
tenant,
Services
Department
was
something
or
tenant
Advocacy
Office,
or
something
that
you
asked
for.
You
asked
for
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
do
that.
S
The
Bay
Area
Legal
Services
that
I
think
one
of
the
public
comments
talked
about
right
to
council.
Everyone
has
a
right
to
counsel
it's
whether
or
not
you
can
pay
for
it
or
not
as
a
part
of
your
request
and
the
administration
being
responsive
to
that,
the
Bay
Area
Legal
Services
contract
is
coming
before
you
on
October
6.
For
that
partnership
to
to
do
that,
I
am
the
mayor's
office.
S
So
now
I'll
talk
to
you
about
the
money
for
the
fiscal
year.
Three
years
2023
we
showed
you
two
26.4
million
dollars
in
the
different
buckets,
so
I'm.
Keeping
the
same
buckets
I
would
like
to
talk
through
the
in
the
fluctuation
of
funding.
B
Travis
May
you're
on
you're
on
a
roll,
but
can
can
I
interject
something
sure
comments
have
been
made
by
all
council
members.
So
I
need
to
make
my
comments.
B
S
B
B
B
S
You
just
to
your
point
about
the
purpose
of
local
government
is
to
provide
essential
services
to
our
citizens
and
residents
and
I
think
that
we
do
an
exceptional
job.
Someone
made
the
comment
that
the
mayor's
office
is
not
listening.
We
do
a
citizen
value
survey
every
year
and
the
way
that
the
budget
is
allocated.
It's
it
reflects
what
the
citizens
value
in
that
survey.
S
We
just
got
the
results
this
week
for
the
most
recent
survey,
you'll
be
seeing
that
soon
and
the
administration
sits
around
the
table
and
we
say
how
did
the
citizens
respond
to
this
service?
What
are
they
prioritizing?
What
has
changed
and
what
you
will
see
in
the
next
survey
is
that
housing
is
now
the
number
one
issue
and
I
think
that
that
is
reflective
on
how
this
Administration
has
been
responding
and
how
this
Council
have
been
requesting
and
responding
to
the
housing
crisis.
So
we
listen,
we
come
back.
S
So
fiscal
year
2020,
these
are
generally
the
buckets
of
money.
This
is
around
how
much
allocation
I
can't
see?
Okay,
so
it's
9.6
million
dollars.
That's
all
federal
and
state
funding,
so
your
ESG
cdbg
ship
halfway
home
funds
and
that's
based
on
what
your
entitlements
and
your
allocation
generally
is,
and
so
fiscal
year
22.
We
did
not
have
any
general
funds
allocated
at
that
at
that
time,
fiscal
year
21.,
you
would
notice
that
there's
a
big
jump.
We
went
from
9.6
million
dollars
to
43
million
dollars.
S
Our
Emergency
Services
Grants
that
we
get
from
the
federal
government
was
a
big
part
of
that
for
the
homeless
Services
we
got
four
million
dollars
in
addition
to
our
normal
allocation
that
we
get
from
the
federal
government.
We
got
four
million
dollars
towards
homeless
and
rental
assistance
prevention
all
around
the
context
of
covet
right
and
so
in
rental
assistance.
S
There
was
21
million
dollars
of
rental
and
utility
assistance,
and
we
partnered
with
the
county
to
disseminate
that
money
to
do
that
so
covid
and
the
the
emergency
rescue
plan
for
covet
influenced
a
lot
of
the
money
that
we
have
at
this
time.
S
So
again
in
this
in
this
in
fiscal
year
22
there
were
no
General
funds
in
this.
In
this
budget
in
fiscal
year,
2022
you'll.
S
You'll
notice
that
the
Acquisitions
in
rehab
went
up
to
22
million
dollars.
That's
a
result
of
the
American
Rescue
plan
act,
16
million
dollars
of
arpa
money
we
put
into
the
acquisition
and
Rehab,
because
we
do
recognize
that
our
only
way
out
of
a
housing
crisis
is
through
providing
more
of
the
supply
on
the
supply
side,
so
supply
and
demand.
And
then
we
also
got
an
additional
6.7
million
dollars
of
general
fund
money
in
fiscal
year.
S
2022.
the
covid
cares
act.
Money
has
pretty
much
been
expended,
except
for
cdbg,
so
we
have
a
small
amount
left
in
cdbg,
and
so
we
went
from
40
43
million
down
to
37.
But
now
you
have
the
general
fund
contributing
to
this
allocation
and
using
our
map.
S
They'll
go
back
to
a
successful
city
that
has
done
a
great
program
and
provide
you
additional
money,
there's
also
times
when
you
can
go
through
a
competitive
bid
for
certain
pots
of
money
and
we
went
through
a
competitive
bid
for
hopwell
funding
and
we
got
750
000
that
went
to
our
homeless
Services
bucket,
and
that
includes
some
general
fund
money
in
that
line.
Item
as
well,
the
Public
Services
you'll
see
saw
that
that
pretty
much
kind
of
stayed
consistent.
S
We
didn't
put
additional
money,
that's
because
there's
Federal
restrictions
that
you
only
can
allocate
15
of
your
a
lot
allotted
funds
to
public
services
so
that
pretty
much
stays
around
the
same
number.
S
The
rental
assistance
is
general
fund
and
Hapa
money
at
6.9
million
home
ownership
is
a
combination
of
federal
and
state
funding,
but
does
not
include
what
the
CRA
has
allocated
for
down
payment
assistance,
and
so
when
you're
looking
at
this
money
is
everything
that
comes
through
the
city
through
the
city
office
with
general
fund
and
our
state
and
federal
funding,
not
including
your
CRA
funding.
So
to
your
point,
at
the
five
o'clock
public
hearing,
we
talked
about
reallocating
money
and
talking
about
that
in
November.
S
If
we
were
to
achieve
the
30
in
the
CRA
allocation,
it
would
exceed
the
10
million
of
ad
valorem
revenue
and
so
can't
make
any
promises.
We'll
have
that
to
you
in
November
to
do
that
allocation,
but
just
know
that
your
home
ownership
and
acquisition
line
items
that
you
see
here
there's
additional
funding.
But
it's
just
in
your
CRA
budget.
For
that
and
then
what
we're
presenting
to
you
is
a
26.4
million
million
dollars
for
housing,
I'm
available
for
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
F
Yes,
thank
you,
sir
Miss
Travis.
You
know
that
I
have
the
most
respect
for
you
and
my
comments
were
not
directed
to
you.
I'm
glad
that
you're
on
board
and
I
think
your
Superstar
is
trying
to
fix
a
lot
of
things.
The
fact
is
that
the
administration
hasn't
been
focused
on
this
and
a
lot
of
other
things
and
and
many
others
like
like
roads
and
sidewalks
and
bike
Lanes.
It's
about
everything
out
Parks.
They
spent
three
years
planning
and
very
little
time
actually
doing
it.
F
And
now
our
our
our
resiliency
officer
is
spending
most
of
his
time,
trying
to
sell
to
the
public
a
project
that
may
cost
six
billion
dollars
that
the
public
doesn't
want.
Our
cfo's
office
spent
a
lot
of
time
coming
up
with
108
million
dollars
out
of
the
general
fund
that
was
bonded
out
for
a
new
office.
Building,
it's
going
to
be
very
nice,
but
had
you
had
access
to
the
resources
of
the
resiliency
officer
or
the
CFO
to
to
spend
108
million
dollars
bonded
out
or
any
other
resources?
F
I
have
full
confidence
in
you
and
hats
off
to
the
administration
for
bringing
you
and
your
colleagues
on
board,
but
the
fact
is:
we've
got
to
get
Beyond
planning
and,
and
we
we've
got
to
get
the
rest
of
the
administration,
Beyond
planning
and
to
actually
getting
things
done,
and
we
need
them
to
listen
to
what
the
public
wants
and
listen
to
what
city
council
wants,
because
this
is
real
hard
work
that
we're
doing
for
the
for
the
community
and
the
community
is
tired
of
the
politics
and
they
want
to
move
on
to
actually
getting
results
for
the
community.
S
Jeremiah
I
forgot
to
respond
to
Mr
Goods
comments
about
the
bond.
I
would
have
to
work
with
a
budget
team
to
look
at
that.
There's
different
ways
to
bond
and
projects,
but
I'm
going
to
take
this
opportunity
or
to
say
the
same
level
of
energy
that
is
being
brought
to
city
council
to
solve
the
affordable
housing
crisis.
They
need
to
understand
that
there
are
other
bodies
that
get
way
more
funding
than
the
city
and
that
energy
should
be
brought
to
those
bodies
as
well.
S
B
J
You
know
I
I,
appreciate
what
you
do
for
me.
I
mean
you.
What
I
ask
you
and
Mr
Elise
to
get
it
done
you
get
it
done.
That's
all
I
can
say
and
as
people
can
see
you
kind
of
like
me,
sometimes
you
just
let
people
know
how
it
is.
You
know
and
I'm
appreciative
of
that,
because
you're
up
front,
that
means
you're,
not
scared,
to
say
what
you
got
to
say
to
get
your
point
across
so
I'm.
A
preacher
I
understand
that
so
I
love
what
you
do
when
questions
are
asked.
J
You
know
that's
why
the
man
on
the
screen
said
that
he
he
arrested,
because
when
you
come
before
him
and
he
gives
the
business
out,
you
respond
really
we
like
it
or
not.
You
respond,
but
you
give
the
answers
and
I
I
know
Mr
Carlson's
heart.
He
respects
it
because
you
don't
get
up
there
and
get
a
Fluff.
You
don't
get
fluttered.
J
You
just
say
what
it
is,
how
you
gonna
make
it
happen,
and
that's
all
anybody
can
ask
for
so
I'm
I'm,
proud
of
what
you
do
in
in
your
counterpart,
because
you
get
it
done
and
again
there
are
a
lot
of
agencies,
but
a
lot
of
times
we
can't
depend
on
those
other
agents.
We
got
the
pen
I
go
you
gotta
deal
with
your
own
house.
B
A
You
yeah
no
and
I
and
I
wanted
to
re-emphasize
what
you
said
about
other
agencies
and
government
bodies
and
that's
what
I
was
speaking
to
before,
which
is
it's.
It's
it's
slightly
miraculous
that
we're
getting
all
this
money
from
the
city
of
Tampa,
because
you
take
a
look
at
Hillsborough
County.
They
they
deal
with
a
lot
of
social
welfare
issues
and
and
I
by
the
way
I
use
that
term.
As
a
fan
of
social
welfare
programs,
you
know
a
fan
of
affordable
housing,
Health,
Care
nutrition,
etc,
etc.
A
I'd
love
to
see
for
the
city
to
get
more
involved
in
that.
Historically,
we
have
had
more
of
a
limited
role
in
that
regard,
so
this
expansion
is
very,
very
significant,
so
I
mean
if
you
want
to
go,
you
know
fishing
where
the
fish
are
right,
go
also
to
Hillsborough
County,
the
State
of
Florida,
et
cetera,
so
I
wanted
to
re-enter
that,
because
your
comments
are
very,
very
well
taken.
Thank
you.
