J
Yes,
good
morning,
council
luna
garvey,
director
of
the
tampa
convention
center.
You
know
we
have
a
really
great
team
throughout
our
center
and
they
always
excel
and
bring
people
back
to
our
city,
which
is
one
of
the
main
goals
of
being
the
economic
engine
in
our
city,
and
there
are
so
many
people
that
we
could
nominate
for
this
award.
J
But
taurus
really
stands
out.
He's
been
nominated
a
few
times
from
several
of
his
supervisors
and
some
several
of
his
co-workers,
and
so
I'm
really
delighted
that
before
I
head
into
retirement
that
I
get
to
stand
here
before
you
and
to
congratulate
this
young
man
for
the
great
work
that
he's
been
doing
along
with
everyone
else.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
Congratulations,
sir:
it's
it's
very
clear
that
you're
loved,
as
you
can
see
by
the
warm
reception
here.
A
G
A
L
D
You,
sir,
congratulations,
sir,
on
this
honor.
The
reason
we
started
as
a
council
this
this
honor
for
atu,
is
to
make
sure
that
our
everyday
employees
who
play
such
a
pivotal
role
in
making
sure
that
our
city
runs
on
time,
get
the
dignity
and
honor
and
respect
that
they
deserve
through
awards
and
and
we
hope
that
we
as
a
city
continue
to
give
you
all
that
dignity,
honor
and
respect
through
pay
and
benefits
and
respect
on
the
job.
D
M
Thank
you
so
much
for
what
you
do.
I
had
a
chance
to
sit
down
with
the
union
head
this
morning
and
he
just
had
wonderful
things
to
say
about
you
and
apparently
you're,
the
very
first
person
from
the
convention
center
to
get
this
honor
and
so
very
proud
of
you.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
work.
Councilman.
N
N
K
Yeah,
just
to
echo
what
my
colleague
said.
Thank
you
so
much
for
what
you
do
and
because
you
and
your
colleagues
do
such
a
great
job.
We
don't
know
about
it
every
day.
But
if
you
didn't
show
up
for
a
couple
days,
we
definitely
would
know
it
then.
So.
K
Showing
up,
but
thank
you,
thank
you
so
much
for
all
you
do
it's
it's
a
miracle,
the
the
the
moving
parts
and
the
dedication
of
staff
who
get
all
these
things
done
like
you
do
every
day,
and
thank
you
in
particular
for
your
dedication.
Thank
you.
Thank.
L
L
I
am
so
glad
that
we
are
back
in
these
chambers
and
giving
these
these
awards
out.
Mr
chair
council
members,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
the
audience,
ladies
and
gentlemen
that
are
watching
on
tv.
I
say
this
every
time.
L
O
Good
morning,
council,
mary
o'connor
police
chief,
proud
to
present
officer
sean
mahabeer
to
you
this
morning.
He
is
a
14-year
veteran
of
the
tampa
police
department,
a
two-time
recipient
of
officer
of
the
month,
he's
that
good
and
he
has
been
part
of
this
special
incident
management
unit
for
seven
years.
So
after
he
left
ibor
city
which
he
was
excelling
at.
We
put
him
into
this
special
incident
management
unit
which,
as
you
know,
we
have
a
lot
of
special
ins.
O
O
So
over
the
last
two
years
officer
mahabir
has
been
a
key
figure
during
covet
19
pandemic.
He
was
one
of
the
lead
planners
for
the
first
testing
site
in
the
city
when
lee
davis
clinic
opened
in
east
tampa.
The
number
of
people
that
wanted
to
get
tested
was
overwhelming
and
officer
mahabir
developed
a
plan
to
allow
traffic
to
flow
into
the
testing
site
with
very
minimal
impact
to
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
O
As
we
know,
which
can
be
a
problem,
he
also
took
the
lead
role
in
scheduling,
tampa
pd's
personnel
to
work
the
testing
site
to
handle
the
security
and
traffic
control
and
keeping
people
feeling
safe.
Very
recently
officer
mahabeer
was
tasked
with
revamping
the
responsibility
matters
campaign.
It's
aimed
at
reducing
underage
drinking.
At
the
gasparilla
parades.
O
He
spent
countless
hours
researching
and
planning
a
new,
more
effective
way
to
reach
the
youthful
audience.
He
headed
up
several
meetings
and
the
idea
was
developed
to
have
students
participate
in
the
program
by
having
a
friendly
competition
amongst
themselves.
The
competition
was
to
have
students
complete
a
tick
tock
video.
Everyone
knows
what
a
tick
tock
video
is
right.
It's
about
the
responsibility
matters.
The
competition
winner
was
rewarded
with
a
ride
on
a
float
during
the
gasparilla
children's
parade.
O
He
also
worked
with
the
tampa
police
department's
pio
to
collaborate
with
tick-tock
influencers
who
attended
the
high
school
presentations
with
our
officers.
The
competition
was
a
huge
success
and
re-energized
the
responsibility
matters
campaign
with
his
tireless
desire
to
always
go
the
extra
mile
officer.
Sean
mahabir
can
be
counted
on
to
get
the
job
done.
He
is
never
afraid
of
a
challenge
and
takes
every
task
to
heart.
P
N
L
On
and
on,
and
on
about
this
officer,
john,
thank
you
for
everything
you
do,
because
your
dedication
to
service
commitment
to
excellence
and
going
above
and
beyond
the
call
of
duty,
you
have
been
chosen
for
this
market
distinction
as
officer
of
the
month
tampa
city
council,
your
peers,
and
your
superiors
would
like
to
commend
you
on
your
dedication
and
diligence.
We
recognize
your
professionalism
and
your
commitment
to
keeping
our
city
safe.
L
J
C
B
R
Good
morning,
council,
this
one's
really
special
on
behalf
of
the
adele
s
memorial
fund.
We
will
be
making
one
a
one
thousand
dollar
donation
to
the
charity
of
sean's
charity.
This
was
really
special
because
I've
known
sean
for
quite
some
time.
He
doesn't
know
this,
but
I
have
a
nickname
for
him.
R
B
A
B
Of
the
tampa
hillsborough
expressway
authority
sean,
we
can't
even
compliment
you
without
you
deflecting
and
being
so
humble
that
you
send
it
off
to
everybody
else,
that's
in
here,
but
I'm
not
sure
how
far
this
gift
card
goes.
So
if
he
doesn't
share
it,
don't
get
upset,
but
on
behalf
of
the
hillsborough
expressway
authority,
we
thank
you
for
your
service
and
your
humility.
Thank
you.
So
much.
H

bob

curry
ford
and
in
partnership
with
them.
We
want
to
present
to
you
a
brand
new
ford,
mustang
great.
You
might
not
have
to
share
that
with
the
chief.
I
don't
know
how
the
rules
work
also.
C
J
Thank
you
for
your
service.
I
can
really
appreciate
what
you've
gone
through,
because
I
have
gone
through
that
academy
that
the
councilman
references-
and
it
was
quite
an
experience.
I
also
want
to
thank
you
for
your
work
on
gasparilla.
One
of
my
other
volunteer
roles
as
president
of
the
neighborhood
association
in
hyde
park
and
gasparilla
is
going
really
well
from
the
neighborhood
perspective.
J
So
thank
you
for
you
and
your
team
and
everybody
for
doing
all
of
that
work,
but
back
to
the
zoo,
we're
presenting
you
with
a
family
membership,
an
annual
pass
to
the
zoo,
it's
125
value,
and
you
can
also
come
to
our
special
events
at
halloween
and
christmas
and
things
like
that,
and
we
hope
it
inspires
you
and
your
family
to
love
nature
in
the
natural
world
as
much
as
mark-
and
I
do
and
thank
you
again
for
your
service
you're
awesome.
H
Good
morning,
council,
mike
mcarthur
steph's
towing
service,
congratulations
on
a
job.
Well
done
sounds
like
it's
very
well
deserved.
So,
on
behalf
of
todd's
step
and
steph's
towing
service
life
presents
you
with
a
50
outback,
steakhouse
gift
card
and
a
night
out
on
our
company
limousine
for
you
and
everybody
that
can
fit
into
it.
H
I
I
It's
much
appreciated
in
the
community
and
also
thank
you
for
letting
our
community
partners
such
as
myself
to
be
involved
in
the
presentation
on
behalf
of
sean
I've,
sean
known,
I've
known
sean
for
a
long
time
and
I'd
kind
of
be
remiss
that,
in
addition
to
what
the
chief
said
about
him,
he's
done
a
lot
of
other
great
things.
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
he's
done
is
he
was
a
hostage
negotiator
for
years.
I
That
piece
was
left
out,
one
of
the
things
that
he
does
on
a
continual
basis
is
he
trains
active
shooter
presentations
to
around
the
country
as
well
as
in
our
community,
and
I
think
that's
one
of
the
cornerstones
of
safety
for
everybody
in
today's
age.
Unfortunately,
but
I'd
like
to
congratulate
him
on
that
and
continuing
to
do
that,
I've
known
sean
for
a
long
time.
In
addition
to
working
with
him
we're
friends,
we
used
to
be
neighbors,
weird
story
that
goes
with
it,
I'll
I'll.
I
Let
sean
share
it,
but
anyway,
on
behalf
of
neil
thurman
and
adventure
island
and
the
the
rest
of
the
team
from
busch
gardens,
I
like
to
present
them
with
four
tickets
to
busch
gardens,
so
apparently
he's
going
to
need
a
few
more.
M
B
Good
morning,
council
brian
ford,
with
the
tampa
bay
buccaneers-
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
promoting
this
program
and
allowing
us
to
participate
as
well
as
well
as
it's
really
good
to
be
back
here
in
the
chambers
with
everybody
so
but
officer.
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
you
do.
I
don't
know
if
you
remember,
you
actually
did
some
training
for
us
at
one
buck
yeah.
So
I
you
and
your
team
do
a
lot
at
raymond
james
stadiums.
B
This
is
for
you.
We
have
a
little
tradition
at
one
puck
and
anybody
that
goes
over
and
above
gets
a
game
ball,
and
I
think
you
have
shown
that
you've
gone
over
and
above
day
in
and
day
out.
Thank
you.
So
this
is
for
you
and
your
family
and
all
the
sacrifice
and
leadership
you've
made.
Thank
you
very
much.
Congratulations.
H
I
think
you
need
a
cart
here.
Yes,
steve
michelini,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
a
couple
of
different
folks,
who'd
like
to
honor
you-
and
I
think
you
know
where
this
place
is
the
chicho
restaurant
group
sean
helped
to
establish
the
business
watch
for
the
soho
district,
and
it's
still
active
today,
so
we're
appreciative
of
that.
H
When
you
finish
eating,
you
can
go
over
there
and
work
out
a
little
bit
and
on
behalf
of
bella,
bravo
we're
going
to
provide
you
with
a
gift
certificate
for
50,
so
you
can
go
enjoy
yourself
over
there.
Now
I
have
a
question
for
you
about
chinese
food.
H
H
So
don't
let
him
off
the
hook
here
so
anyway,
on
behalf
of
the
yummy
house,
china
bistro
we're
providing
you
with
a
hundred
dollar
gift
certificate.
You
can
enjoy
yourself
with.
C
A
Congratulations,
sir.
We
certainly
appreciate
the
sacrifice
that
you
make
every
time
you
put
on
that
uniform
you
and
every
officer
here
in
the
city
of
tampa.
You
keep
us
safe.
You
go
above
and
beyond.
Just
like
the
previous
gentleman,
it's
clear
that
you're
loved
and
this
community
is
is
with
you
in
friendship
and
in
support,
because
you've
been
always
been
there
for
them.
You
have
friendships
with
quite
a
few
people.
A
They
know
you,
they
know
who
you
are
and
we're
really
lucky
to
have
you
and,
and
just
thank
you
for
being
you
we,
we
can't
say
that
enough.
Any
council
members
councilman
vieira
councilman
miranda.
I.
N
Just
want
to
say
thank
you,
you
know
when
I
gauge
people
it's
by
laughter
and
how
people
smile
when
they
see
you
and
they
look
at
you,
so
I
know
you're
easy
to
get
along
with,
but
you
also
firm
and
wanted
the
job
done
right.
So
those
are
the
things
that
are
needed
not
only
in
the
police
department
but
throughout
the
whole
society
that
sometimes
now
we
don't
do
so
well.
So
I
appreciate
everything:
you've
done
for
all
your
years
of
services
and
continue
god
bless
you,
sir.
Thank
you,
sir
councilman.
D
Yes,
sir,
and
thank
you
as
was
said
before,
it's
obviously
you're
loved,
but
you
don't
get
to
this
level
in
tampa
police
department
by
just
being
loved,
also
by
being
respected
for
the
work
that
you
do
and
the
work
that
you
do
is
something
that
the
vast
majority
of
people
in
society
myself
included,
can
even
begin
to
do
so.
We
just
thank
you
for
all
the
work
that
you
do.
D
You
know
no,
no
matter
how
people
respond
to
you,
no
matter
how
society
responds
to
you,
you
always
put
on
that
uniform
you
protect
and
serve
all
people,
and
we
just
we
just
appreciate
that
all
all
of
us
here
on
city
council,
all
seven
of
us
do.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
K
Yeah,
thank
you,
echoing
what
my
colleagues
said.
You
know
our
community
people
talk
about
community
growth
in
our
in
our
city
and
our
state,
and
all
of
it
is
on
the
backs
of
you
and
your
colleagues.
You
know
your
time
in
ebor
obviously
help
with
the
multi-billion
dollar
investment.
That's
going
to
be
going
there
without
safety,
our
community
doesn't
grow.
K
Hyde
park
was
mentioned,
other
parts
of
the
city,
and
we
thank
you
and
your
squad
and
your
colleagues
for
protecting
our
community
and
helping
us
grow,
and
the
other
thing
on
the
special
events.
You
know.
Special
events
are
always
a
trade-off,
especially
the
political
ends
between
keeping
us,
safe
and
and
making
sure
we
don't
violate
civil
rights
and,
at
least
in
the
last
three
years
I
haven't
heard
any
complaints
about
the
civil
rights
party.
K
M
I
also
want
to
echo
everyone's
appreciation
for
keeping
us
safe,
but
I
I
wanted
to
highlight
your
creativity.
I
think
that
your
work
with
high
schoolers
and
making
them
a
part
of
the
community
is
is
really
amazing,
so
it's,
I
think,
that's
underrepresented,
the
appreciation
for
just
diving
in
and
and
making
those
connections.
So
thank
you.
G
L
L
L
You
will
experience
things
that
you
never
thought
were
capable
of
you,
let
alone
members
of
our
fire
rescue.
But
today
we
are
proud
to
present
driver
engineer
thomas
matthew,
russell
with
firefighter
of
the
quarter.
I
would
love
to
spend
time
saying
the
reasons
why
this
firefighter
deserves
this,
but
I'm
going
to
ask
chief
tripp
to
come
up
and
tell
us
why
he's
deserved.
C
C
The
station
is
also
known
as
the
beach
house,
not
that
they're
anywhere
close
to
the
beach,
but
I
guess
just
the
name
they
gave
it,
but
that
station
is
also
recognized
as
a
specialty
unit
and
which
is
take
care
of
all
the
hazard
material
that
is
disposed
into
the
city
of
tampa,
so
driver
general
is
dedicated.
He's
a
positive
employee
and
many
people
have
the
opportunity
to
work
with
him.
I
believe
he
is
worthy
of
this
recognition
by
his
peers.
C
C
C
Driver
junior
russell
has
been
instrumental
in
working
with
other
individuals
and
obtaining
much
needed
meters
for
the
house
material
team
and
setting
up
training
with
the
vendors
drug
engineer,
matt
russell.
He
also
teaches
cpr
he's
taught
many
at
the
police
fire
academy
and
he
also
is
definitely
an
instrumental
person.
Whenever
we
have
new
recruits,
he
introduced
them
to
the
hazardous
material
of
tampa
fire
rescue.
C
C
So
with
that
being
said,
of
course,
knowing
within
temp
fire
rescue,
we
have
a
lot
of
talented
individuals.
You
know
so,
of
course,
we're
just
honoring
individuals.
I
wanted
to
create
a
chorus
and
guess
what
voila
driver
jim
matt
russell
is
part
of
the
hometown
heroes
course
and
he's
also
a
member
of
the
pipes
and
band.
So
these
are
just
a
few
reasons
why
I
believe,
drive
engineer.
Matt
russell
is
worthy
of
this
recognition
for
this
second
quarter.
Congratulations.
L
L
We
present
driver
engineer
thomas
matthew,
russell
firefighter
of
the
quarter.

distinction

I
A
lot
is
this
video
platform
for
the
the
learning
of
the
hazmat,
so
as
a
hazmat
technician
previously,
it
was
just
reading
a
couple
papers
and
taking
some
multiple
choice
tests.
I
look
forward
every
month
to
the
videos
that
drive

thomas

driver
jenner
harris
put
together.
It
makes
learning
fun

represent
are
going

I
gave

a
double

for
a
yummy

any
council

K
I
Yes,
well,
our
chief
put
together
the
hometown
heroes,
chorus,
there's
seven
of
us
currently,
including
another
member
of
my
crew,
sophia
cardenas,
who
is
a
and
not
a
bass
like
me,
obviously,
and.
I
We
sing
mostly
the
national
anthem,
is
a
great
way
to
use
our
services,
so
we
we
do
that
and
the
more
recent
time
the
pediatric
5k
this
saturday,
which
benefits
our
pediatric
burn
camp
for
tampa
fire,
we'll
be
kicking
off
the
race
with
the
national
anthem.
G
It
was
true
you
could
feel
his
heart.
He
was
emotional
about
it
because
he
loved
what
he's
doing.
He
loves
the
people
and
I
can
feel
I
can
feel
it,
and
it
tells
me
he's
a
very
godly
person,
because
I
could
feel
that
spirit
in
you.
So
congratulations
you
award
today
and
keep
up
the
good
work.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
So
much
I'm
coming.
M
Yeah,
thank
you
as
well.
I'm
I'm
still
when
people
cry,
I
can't
tend
to
get
teary,
so
I'm
so
it's
obviously
the
passion
is.
Is
there
and
I
think
it's
wonderful,
how
you've
created
something
a
way
to
educate
your
colleagues
using
video
there's
something
about
seeing
instead
of
reading?
That
always
is
wonderful,
and
I
commend
you
for
creating
that
and
continuing
to
help
people
that
you
work
with,
and
the
community.
D
Thank
you
very
much
for
all
that
you
do.
You
know
you.
You
mentioned
your
parents
very
prominently
which,
if
you
want
to
get
me,
I
I
joke
about
cuban
americans,
whether
yellers
or
cryers,
I'm
a
crier
and
I'm
very
proud
of
that.
But
you
know
you
mentioned
your
parents
and
they
should
be
proud
that
they
raised
a
son
who
is
not
only
brave
and
and
has
gone
on
to
do
great
things,
but
also
wears
his
heart
on
his
sleeve.
D
N
I'm
I'm
not
a
crier
only
when
I
get
hit,
but
I
appreciate
everything
you
say
you
speak
from
the
heart
and
I
think
the
emotion
comes
when
you
have
so
many
things
in
your
brain
you're,
trying
to
digest
it
to
come
out
that
the
tears
come
out
first,
but
it's
appreciative
of
what
you
do
and
especially
when
you
talk
about
your
mother
and
those
are
the
great
things
that
you
and
your
squad
and
the
fire
department
has
that
when
you
go
to
a
rescue
car
or
something
of
that
nature,
no
matter
how
bad
that
individual
he
or
she
feels
when
they
see
you
arrive,
they
feel
50
better.
I
Thank
you
all
all
of
the
good
decisions
I've
made
have
been
because
of
god,
my
family
and
my
support
system,
so
I've
I
consider
the
fire
department
to
be
one
of
the
best.
N
That
I
did
you
make
your
girlfriend
and
you
said
that
you
organization
you
made.
N
D
H
L
A
D
If
I
may,
I
wanted
to
make
sure
fred
is
not
here
for
five
okay
good,
so
he
he
had
to
leave
early
so
we'll
just
so
warren
you're.
D
Yes,
sir,
it
is
a
great
pleasure
to
be
here
today
to
honor
a
great
son
of
tampa,
who
means
so
much
to
this
city.
Warren
hope,
dawson.
You
know
he's
the
kind
of
guy
that
we
always
look
for
reasons
to
try
to
honor,
and
I
read
I
think
it
wasn't
like.
I
said
that
warren
had
just
written
his
memoirs
and
I
looked
him
up
on
the
florida
bar
and
it's
been
55
years
since
he
joined
the
florida
bar.
D
So
that's
a
reason
to
honor
this
great
guy
and
we
honor
him
for
so
many
reasons.
I'm
honoring
mr
dawson,
as
an
attorney
because
he's
a
wonderful
colleague
but
just
a
great
individual,
I'm
going
to
very
briefly
go
through
his
biography
and
some
of
his
achievements,
which,
if
you
don't
know
about
this
guy,
is
going
to
blow
you
away.
He
graduated
from
florida,
a
m
university
thereafter
in
1961
to
1963.
D
He
would
join
the
united
states
army
two
years
before
the
voting
rights
act.
He
would
leave
in
1966.
He
would
graduate
from
howard
university
college
of
law
two
years.
I
believe
after
delano
stewart
did
your
fellow
alan
temple
ame
congregant.
He
would
become
an
attorney.
He
would
become
our
first
african-american
assistant
city
attorney
here
in
the
city
of
tampa.
That's
a
big
deal,
that's
a
very,
very
big
deal,
but
what
this
guy
would
go
on
to
do
with
this
law
degree
is
really
really
remarkable.
D
D
D
In
that
regard,
he
would
go
on
to
have
an
elementary
school
named
after
him
in
2017,
in
riverview
by
our
by
our
school
board,
and
he
would
shortly
thereafter
be
elected
to
judicial
council
of
the
national
ame
church,
which
I
think
I
would
think
gives
you
a
good
view
on
what
inspires
this
man,
which
is
his
religious
faith.
He
has
a
memoir
that
is
out
where
he
tells
about
all
these
remarkable
things
that
he
has
done
throughout
his
life.
D
E
I
am
honored
by
this
recognition
and
I
I
should
take
a
moment,
though,
to
say
that
it
was
55
years
ago
that
I
stood
in
these
chambers
and
signed
on
as
an
assistant
city
attorney
that
I,
where
I
served
for
approximately
five
or
six
years
and
on
the
other
hand,
I've
been
in
these
chambers,
when
I
made
presentations
on
behalf
of
muhammad
ali,
trying
to
make
it
possible
for
him
to
fight
in
curtis
sixten
hall,
a
shot
that
was
denied.
But
we
made
the
effort
anyway.
E
E
H
E
E
And
a
combination
of
the
two
has
brought
me
to
this
point.
So
at
82
years
old
now
I
am
82,
I
didn't
say
I
was
82
well
anyway,
practicing
law
for
55
56
years
in
this
city
and
I'm
pleased
to
have
called
this
my
home,
I'm
originally
from
mulberry.
E
I
was
in
the
cuban
missile
crisis
as
an
officer
in
the
united
states
army
back
in
1962-63,
the
closest
that
we
ever
came
previous
to
now
with
going
to
war
with
russia,
and
so
I
I'm
pleased
about
that
also
now.
I
should
tell
you
that
if
you
take
a
look
at
my
book,
you
will
find
out
that
I
too
can
see.
A
Sir,
it's
truly
an
honor.
You
know
to
be
here
with
you
a
legend,
a
living
legend
and
I've
heard
of
your
name.
My
whole
life
and
I
never
met
you
until
I
bumped
into
you
about
a
month
ago,
at
a
cigar
shop,
you
and
another
former
council
member
just
hanging
out-
and
I
heard
the
name
and
I'm
going.
This
is
the
guy.
This
is
the
the
gentleman
that
I've
that
I've
read
about
councilman
vieira.
Thank
you
for
presenting
this
and
and
talking
about
your
service
over
half
a
century
to
this
community.
A
Everything
that
you've
been
a
part
of
everything
that
you've
done.
You've
always
fought
for
the
right
thing.
You've
always
fought
for
the
underdog.
You
always
you
know
you
were
there
to
do
to
do
right
by
the
people,
and
we
can't
thank
you
enough
for
your
55-plus
years
of
service,
not
only
to
the
city
to
this
community
to
the
country.
I
mean
you
you're
a
what
is
it
a
man
for
all
seasons,
kind
of
thing,
and
we
we
can't.
A
We
can't
express
our
appreciation
enough
for
all
that
you've
done
and
accomplished.
Thank
you,
sir.
Thank.
K
K
Yeah,
thank
you.
So
much
for
all
you
done.
Thank
you
for
councilman
vera
for
bringing
you
here
today.
I
I
could
sit
and
listen
to
you
for
hours,
mr
dawson.
So
if
you
I'll
ask
my
legislative
aide,
if,
if,
if
you
have
any
speeches
coming
up
or
any
talks,
I
would
love
to
just
sit
and
listen
to
your
stories
because
they
sound
fascinating.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
all
you've
done.
N
Thank
you,
my
friend,
mr
dawson.
You
know
we
come
from
the
same
era
really,
and
the
roads
weren't
always
paved
so
nicely
for
individuals
like
yourself
and
myself
at
that
time.
Yes,
you
had
to
live
in
a
district,
but
you
had
to
run
city-wide.
Am
I
correct,
because
that
made
it
very
difficult
for
to
get
elected
and
thank
you
for
doing
the
work
that
you've
done
and
make
sure
that
those
days
from
yesterday
are
gone
forever?
N
You
always
took
the
step
to
help
people,
no
matter
who
they
were,
what
color
they
were
in
the
right
direction
and
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart,
I've
known
you
for
a
long
time.
Thank
you
and
all
your
friends
for
doing
what
they
did.
Some
of
the
things
that
we
take
for
granted
now
were
not
they
were
made
of
granite.
Then,
because
you
couldn't
go
through
them,
they
were
very
hard
to
to
go
through
and
have
the
same
opportunities
everyone
had
so
from
bottom
of
my
heart.
Thank
you
very
much
for
everything.
You've
done.
L
M
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
you've
done.
I
echo
councilman
carlson.
I
would
love
to
hear
more
stories,
but
what
you
have
brought
to
this
community
is
something
that
I
know
that
every
individual
community
has
someone
who's
done.
So
much
done
done
the
work,
but
you
have
done
so
much
work
and
we
appreciate
everything
you've
done
to
help
this
bring
this
community
forward
into
the
20th
century.
A
G
I
know
the
work
you've
done.
I've
heard
the
stories
I've
seen
you,
I've
watched
you
and
when
you
get
an
opportunity
just
to
see
you
up
here
today,
looking
sharp
and
dapper
as
always
that
bow
tie
being
able
to
stand
tall,
stand
strong
looking
82
years
strong,
you
know
that
you've
done
the
work
you
put
the
work
in
for
many
people,
but
especially
my
people.
I
have
to
say
that,
because
when
you
were
fighting
for
all
people,
you
definitely
was
fighting
for
my
people
and
you've
always
done
that
being
they
can't
pay.
G
D
And
so
it
is
my
pleasure
to
give
this
tampa.
City
council
commendation.
Mr
dawson,
it's
funny.
I
was
remembering
the
first
time
we
met.
It
was
11
years
ago
tammy
bryant
spratling.
I
saw
here
there
there's
a
great
movie
on
youtube
by
the
name
of
remember
before
the
law
was
equal,
where
he
is
interviewed
by
tammy
and
many
others.
D
I
was
supposed
to
interview
mr
dawson,
but
my
son
was
two
and
a
half
and
was
having
a
bad
day
and
I
was
with
him
and
he
was
crying
a
lot,
so
somebody
has
to
substitute
for
me,
but
that's
how
we
met,
which
is
funny,
but
it
is
my
pleasure
sure
to
give
this
commendation
to
you,
sir,
as
a
friend
and
as
a
colleague,
you
are
loved.
Thank
you,
sir.
D
Thank
you,
and,
and
thank
you
very
much
and
next
go
on
to
the
next
one.
If
I
may
next
I'd
like
to
call
up
everybody
with
our
equal
justice
initiative,
project
come
on
up.
N
D
I
see
here
we
have
here
chalet
davis,
with
the
portico
amber
morrow
with
the
portico.
We
have
here,
pastor,
justin
larosa
with
the
portico
mr
fred
hearns
was
here,
but
unfortunately
had
to
leave
early.
We
have
here
tammy
bryant
spratling,
with
community
tampa
bay
and
robert
blount,
with
a
brown
ministries
who's
there
good
to
see
you
my
friend.
Well,
we
I
just
this
is
not
for
a
commendation.
I
I
had
scheduled
this
for
a
presentation.
D
We
have
been
working
as
a
as
an
organization
and
as
a
group
on
bringing
a
a
marker
from
the
equal
justice
initiative,
brian
stevenson's
organization,
which
is
in
montgomery
alabama
to
that
talks
about
our
acute
and
painful
history
here
in
the
city
of
tampin,
here
in
hillsborough
county
during
jim
crow,
specifically
focusing
on
racial
lynchings
that
occurred
during
the
end
of
reconstruction,
all
the
way
to
the
end
of
formal,
jim
crow.
D
It
was
florida
not
mississippi,
not
alabama,
that
had
the
highest
per
capita
rate
of
lynchings
during
this
time,
and
certainly
the
city
of
tampa
in
hillsborough
county
was
not
immune
from
that.
So
we
have
a
great
coalition
that
I'm
going
to.
Let
speak
briefly
to
talk
about
the
great
work
that
they've
done,
because
our
marker
has
finally
been
approved
and
it
should
be
up
around
july
of
this
year
and
it's
going
to
be
on
the
riverwalk
and
I'll.
Let
some
of
the
folks
here
talk
and
pastor.
F
Good
morning,
council,
thank
you
for
having
us
this
morning.
I'm
robert
blunt
president
of
a
brown
ministries.
I
want
to
share
a
little
bit
about
the
equal
justice
initiative.
Eji,
as
it
is
most
popularly
known,
is
a
private
501c3
organization
founded
by
brian
stevenson
in
1989,
not
sure
if
you
saw
the
movie
just
mercy,
but
the
movie
was
based
on
brian
stevenson's
book
and
is
a
great
depiction
of
the
great
work
of
eji.
F
Eji
provides
legal
representation
to
people
who
have
been
illegally
convicted
unfairly,
sentenced
or
abused
in
state
jails
and
prisons
running
a
40-year
plus
prison
ministry.
We
actually
have
had
some
mutual
clients
that
we've
worked
with
right
here
in
our
community,
whom
eji
has
represented,
one
of
whom
just
recently
joined
our
board
of
directors
and
looking
forward
to
working
with
him.
Eji
provides
research
and
recommendations
to
assist,
advocates
and
policymakers
in
the
critically
important
work
of
criminal
justice
reform.
F
The
organization
is
also
committed
to
changing
the
narrative
about
race
in
america.
In
2018,
eji
opened
the
legacy
museum
from
enslavement
to
mass
incarceration
and
the
national
memorial
for
peace
and
justice
as
part
of
its
national
effort
to
create
new
spaces
markers
memorials
that
address
the
legacy
of
slavery,
lynching
and
racial
segregation,
which
shapes
many
issues.
Today.
F
I
encourage
you
to
visit
the
museum
and
memorial,
if
you
have
not
done
so
already.
Mr
hearns,
who
had
to
step
out,
was
going
to
speak
more
specifically
about
eji's
remembrance,
project,
councilman,
you've
already
sort
of
mentioned
this,
but
we
have
been
working
and
assembling
together.
It's
kind
of
funny.
F
Each
of
us
visited
the
museum
and
memorial
independently
and
basically
signed
an
interest
form
that
we
would
like
to
reclaim
our
memorial
in
our
community
and
eji
did
the
work
really
of
connecting
us
together,
and
here
we
are
collectively
in
the
community
making
this
happen,
and
so
we
are
excited
to
be
working
towards
erecting
the
memorial
to
recognize
robert
johnson,
who
is
just
one
of
several
who
were
lynched
in
hillsborough
county
and
make
sure
that
the
price
that
these
individuals
paid
does
not
go
unforgotten
and
also
to
make
sure
that
the
families
to
the
best
of
our
ability
understand
that
the
community
stands
with
them.
F
I
just
also
want
to
say
there's
an
educational
and
awareness
component
to
this,
and
I
know
that
mr
hearns
is
working
very
closely
with
hillsborough
county
public
schools
on
an
essay
contest
to
make
sure
we
achieve
that
piece.
This
is
a
national
movement
and
we
are
very
proud
to
be
a
part
of
the
movement
and
to
bring
this
recognition
and
memorial
to
our
community
here
in
tampa.
So
thank.
Q
Good
morning
my
name
is
tammy
bryant
spratling
and
I
come
as
a
resident
of
the
city
of
tampa
in
hillsborough
county.
It's
so
great
to
see
a
woman.
Thank
you
for
being
here.
I
I
want
to
just
take
a
moment
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
mr
robert
johnson.
He
was
the
fifth
of
five
racial
terror
lynchings
here
in
hillsborough
county.
Q
Q
Q
Mr
graves
took
him
out
of
the
jail
and
as
soon
as
they
were
out
of
the
jail
down
here
in
downtown
tampa,
they
were
met
by
about
12
different
cars,
who
drove
them
to
the
hillsborough
river
near
hillsborough,
avenue
and
sly
avenue.
Mr
johnson
was
removed
from
the
vehicle
and
shot
multiple
times
killed
on
the
scene.
Q
This
was
an
act
of
extra
judicial
justice
taken
by
residents
just
like
you
and
I
rather
than
people
who
upheld
the
law.
This
was
outside
of
the
rule
of
law
and
this
was
not
an
act
of
justice
at
all.
In
fact,
and
so
what
this
marker
represents
is
an
opportunity
for
us
as
a
community
first
to
recognize
mr
johnson
and
the
other
folks
who
were
murdered
as
part
of
racial
terror
lynchings,
and
additionally,
we
have
the
opportunity,
as
a
community,
to
recognize
that
this
type
of
extrajudicial
process
has
no
place
in
a
moral
society.
Q
We're
so
grateful,
as
mr
vieira
indicated
today,
that
our
marker
has
been
approved
and
it
will
sit
on
the
banks
of
the
hillsborough
river
not
down
by
the
riverwalk
and
is
a
beautiful
location
right
next
to
the
fortune,
taylor
bridge.
We
hope
that
future
generations
will
take
a
look
at
this
marker,
read
and
understand,
mr
what
happened
to
mr
johnson
and
the
other
four
racial
terror:
lynching
victims
here
in
hillsborough
county
and
have
a
moment
of
reflection
by
the
water,
because
the
water
was
often
times
the
location
where
racial
terror
lynchings
occurred.
Q
Many
many
in
fact,
over
four
thousand
documented
lynchings
by
equal
justice
initiative,
and
we
also
know,
though,
that
the
water
can
be
healing
and
the
water
can
be
an
opportunity
to
wash
away
the
sins
of
a
community.
So
we're
super
grateful
for
this
opportunity
and
thank
you
for
having
us
this
morning.
Thank
you.
D
If
I
forgot
to
mention,
I
could
not
forget
representative
fentress
driscoll
who's
been
such
a
critical
part
of
this.
She
couldn't
be
here
today,
of
course,
but
representative
driscoll
go
ahead
and
ask
you.
Thank
you.
O
We're
real
really
grateful
to
be
here.
My
name
is
justin
larosa,
I'm
one
of
the
ministers
at
high
park,
united
methodist
and
the
director
of
the
portico
downtown
I've
known
robert
blunt
for
a
long
time
and
got
to
know
a
little
bit
about
eji.
Really
by
chance.
He
called
me
and
said:
hey,
let's
show
this

film
at
the
portico.
This
is
january
2020,
which
was
right
before
the
pandemic.
We
had
125
people
come
and
watch
that
documentary.
O
O
Some
theologians
say
that
the
original
sin
is
is
rooted
in
depravity,
and
perhaps
it
is,
but
I
want
to
also
suggest
to
you
that
it's
rooted
in
forgetfulness
we
forget
who
we
are,
we
forget
who
god
is,
and
we
forget
who
we're
called
to
be,
and
this
is
the
soil
near
where
he
was
lynched,
and
we
gathered
that
we
prayed
over
that
and
we
took
that
to
alabama.
O
You
can't
escape
the
original
sin
of
of
slavery,
and
so
it's
powerful-
and
we
will
do
this
every
year
on
the
weekend
near
march,
3rd
and
4th
we
will
get
the
next
soil
and
we
will
deliver
to
the
museum
that
is
showing
up
there
in
montgomery
alabama.
I
encourage
you
to
check
it
out
and
be
transformed,
because
when
we
remember,
we
don't
repeat
really
appreciate
for
you,
your
support.
Thank
you
for
your
service.
A
Thank
you,
sir.
Thank
you
very
much
councilmember
vieira
for
bringing
this
forward
and
all
the
speakers
today.
If
anybody
is
ever
interested,
I
invite
you
to
walk
with
me
to
oakland
cemetery,
which
is
just
a
few
blocks
north
of
here.
A
lot
of
tampa
pioneers
are
buried.
There
names
like
ebor
names
of
the
streets
that
are
in
downtown.
I
can
tell
you
who's
who's,
who
and
what
not,
but
there
are
specific
grave
markers
where
you'll
see
lynched,
where
you'll
see
a
slave
a
slave
without
a
name
because
they
didn't
they
didn't
whatever.
For.
P
A
Amongst
those
graves
is
madam
fortune,
taylor
and
you
brought
up
the
fortune
taylor
bridge,
which
the
previous
council
renamed
from
laurel
street
bridge.
We
used
to
be
fortune
street
bridge,
but
who
was
madame
fortune
taylor.
She
was
a
former
slave
that
owned
about
30
plus
acres
of
land
in
this
area
area
around
the
strats
and
whatnot.
So
if
this
marker
is
going
to
be
along
the
river
along,
the
riverwalk
know
that
it
was,
it
will
be
on
the
land
of
a
of
a
woman
who
was
a
slave.
A
Who
was
a
landowner
and
died
highly
respected
in
this
community
and
her
name
lives
on,
because
the
bridge
now
has
the
name
restored
to
madam
fortune,
taylor
bridge.
But
you
know
you
think
about
the
the
the
the
horrible
history
of
the
jim
crow
era.
Innocent
people.
A
Like
you
mentioned,
you
know,
people,
private
individuals,
taking
you
know
the
law
into
their
own
hands
and
murdering
individuals
that
were
found
not
guilty
found,
not
responsible
and
still
they
were
made
to
suffer.
But
you
know
the
the
pastor
mentioned
it.
You
know
forgetfulness.
We
can't
forget
that
history,
that's
why
I
say
come
with
me
to
the
cemetery.
A
A
L
I
thank
you
and
your
organization,
I've
known
a
few
of
you
for
years
now.
Thank
you
for
bringing
awareness
to
our
community.
If
people
don't
know
they
can't
understand
and
without
understanding,
of
course,
we
have
fear.
So
thank
you
for
being
pioneers
and
and
bringing
this
information
to
us
so
that
we
may
learn.
Thank
you.
Councilman.
M
Thank
you
as
well.
I
think
it's
really
important
to
learn
our
history
and
share
it
and
really
looking
forward
to
reading
the
marker
learning
more
about
the
the
people
who
were
who
were
killed
unnecessarily.
Thank
you.
N
N
K
K
We
need
to
make
sure
we
teach
the
lessons
to
our
kids
and
and
some
folks
on
leadership
too,
need
to
understand
the
lessons
of
what's
happened
in
the
past
and
how
it
relates
to
today.
I
want
to
say
I'm
I'm
a
proud
member
of
the
hyde
park
united
methodist
church,
which
owns
the
portico
and
that
church
has
a
huge
social
justice
program
that
justin
runs
at
the
portico
and
if
you
anybody
watching
needs
to
have
coffee
one
day
support
a
social
enterprise
which
also
incubates.
K
Incubates
nonprofits
and
they
the
the
nonprofits
there
love
inc
and
others.
They
they
help.
People
who
are
on
the
street
and
about
to
lose
their
home
or
houseless
and
they've
helped
people
in
lots
of
ways,
but
they
have
a
venue
there
and
they
have
food
and
and
coffee
and
it's
a
great
place
to
meet
and
just
lots
of
remarkable
things
that
are
going
on
and
I
could
say
the
same
about
each
of
your
organizations,
but
since
I'm
involved
in
that
one,
I
want
to
make
sure
to
congratulate
them.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
R
As
many
of
you
know,
I
I
worked
on
wall
street
for
about
40
years
and
at
35
of
those
40
years
and
del
burnett
was
my
client
and
through
that
35-year
relationship.
We
became
very
good
friends,
I
retired
three
years
ago,
but
still
stayed
in
contact
with
adele,
because
our
relationship
went
far
beyond
client.
It
was
a
great
friendship.
R
I
got
a
call
from
her
in
september
and
she
was
at
tampa
general
hospital
and
needed
to
see
me
immediately
and
wanted
me
to
bring
her
a
state
attorney
who
I
had
actually
referred
her
to
along
with
me.
She
wouldn't
talk
to
me
over
the
phone
about
what
was
going
on,
but
obviously
I
knew
it
wasn't
good.
R
So
she
instructed
the
attorney
that
she
wanted
everything
updated
on
on
her
will
and
wanted
me
to
be
her
executor
and
wanted
to
create
a
donor
advised
fund
with
90
of
her
estate
and
the
estate
was
not
small,
so
that
was
done,
and
I
am
the
executor
of
that
donor
advised
fund.
So
for
those
of
you
that
are
not
familiar
with
the
donor
advise
fund.
Basically,
the
money
falls
out
of
the
estate
into
this
fund.
The
fund
is
managed
by
morgan
stanley
and
I,
as
the
executive
direct
what
charities
can
benefit
from
the
fund.
R
R
R
We
will
continue
to
to
do
good,
as
those
of
you
that
know
me
know
that
I'm
very
passionate
about
my
community,
my
family
and
I
came
here
in
1961
from
from
our
native
cuba,
and
we
were
just
four
of
us,
my
mother,
my
father,
my
brother
and
I,
and
our
friends
and
neighbors,
became
our
family
and
tampa
sort
of
adopted
us
and
took
us
in,
and
I've
always
been
extremely
grateful
for
that
and
my
mission
in
life,
once
I
got
into
my
career
and
by
the
grace
of
god,
did
very
well
and
been
retired.
R
Now,
for
three
years
my
pledge
was
always
to
give
back
to
the
community
for
all
that
it
gave
to
me
this
gesture
by
adele.
Burnett
has
obviously
enhanced
that
that
goal,
and
so
we
will
continue
to
do
good
in
the
community.
I
will
be
continuing
to
recognize
your
police
officers
of
the
month
and
your
firefighters
of
the
quarter
through
the
fund,
and
we
expect
to
do
many
more
great
things
across
the
community.
R
Adele
burnett
was
an
only
child
and
she
never
married
so
about
10
of
her
estate
went
to
some
cousins
and
some
close
friends
and
the
rest
of
it
went
into
the
donor
advise
fund
and
we
are
extremely
excited
to
continue
to
to
make
an
impact
in
the
tampa
bay
community.
L
L
Miss
burnett
is
an
amazing
woman
as
long
as
she
and
her
estate
keep
contributing
to
the
things
that
matter
to
her
the
most
she
will
always
be
alive.
Tampa
city
council
presents
to
adele
sandra
burnett,
miss
adele,
burnett
called
tampa
home
since
1957
and
was
a
graduate
of
the
university
of
south
florida.
L
L
L
She
leaves
a
legacy
of
love
across
the
city
of
tampa
by
giving
part
of
her
estate
to
various
charitable
organizations
across
the
community,
including
humane
society,
tampa
jewish
family
services,
to
the
usf
students
to
the
city
of
tampa
firefighters
and
police
officers
to
the
charity
that
they
name
tampa.
City
com
council
commends
and
honors
the
life
of
adelia
sandra
burnett.
A
Mr
my
grandmother,
my
mother,
left
cuba
in
1961,
just
like
your
family
and
from
what
my
mother
tells
me.
I
think
our
families
have
been
friends
for
50
years
more.
She
remembers
you
from
high
school,
and
that
was
you
know
the
other
day,
but
they've
always
spoken
very
highly
of
you
and
your
entire
family.
A
You
know
I'm
glad
that
adele
burnett
trusts
you
as
executor,
because
it's
in
good
hands
the
money's
going
where
it
needs
to
go
you're
an
honest
individual
to
do
right
by
her
wishes.
I
don't
think
she
could
have
chosen
a
better,
a
better
person.
We
appreciate
you
and
I
mean
you
look
at
all
the
people
that
she's
helped.
A
I
said
earlier,
we
die
twice
when
we
take
our
last
last
breath
and
when
somebody
says
our
name
for
the
last
time,
she'll
live
for
a
long,
long
time,
helping
people
people
that
she
never
knew
but
giving
you
said
90
going
to
going
to
charity
going
to
people
in
need.
I
mean
the
impact
on
on
this
community
that
she's
made
and
is
going
to
continue
making
is
enormous.
A
So
we
appreciate
you,
I
I
didn't
know
who
this
person
was.
I
heard
of
her
the
first
time
at
the
firefighters
gala
when
you
got
on
stage
and-
and
you
spoke
her
name,
but
we
appreciate
you
know
the
work
that
you're
doing
and
the
service
of
this
community.
So
thank
you,
sir.
Anybody.
N
N
I
appreciate
everything:
you've
done
you
and
your
whole
family.
I've
had
the
pleasure
of
serving
with
your
mother
when
she
was
the
queen,
and
I
was
the
king
at
that
era,
and
she
was
a
very
nice
lady
and
she
talked
very
highly
about
you.
N
Although
I
didn't,
I
didn't
tell
her
that
I
knew
you
that
well,
but
she
was
a
a
trip
she
could
really
handle
the
the
things
that
I
see
how
you
can
handle
these
things,
because
your
mother
is
the
one
that
I
believe
instilled
the
the
basics
of
life
into
you
and
gave
you
the
direction
in
which
you
succeeded
very
highly
in,
and
it's
been
a
pleasure
knowing
you,
you
continue
to
do
good
work,
god
bless
you
and
your
family.
Thank.
D
Son
and
and
simon,
it's
a
real,
great
pleasure
to
see
you
and
the
cause
that
you're,
you
know
every
day
advocating
for
be
honored.
I
I
think
very,
very
highly
of
you,
my
family
had
you
beat
by
one
year.
We
were
in
1960,
not
1961.,
but
you
know
what
I
know.
One
of
the
things
you're
proudest
of
is
your
involvement
for
first
responders
because
of
your
son
alex,
and
I
know
you're
so
proud
of
your
son.
D
I
see
him
out
there
all
the
time
he's
one
of
the
most
enthusiastic
firefighters
out
there
among
many
enthusiastic
firefighters
and-
and
I
know
he
always
makes
you
proud,
you're
a
friend,
I'm
always
yeah.
I
love
to
talk
with
you
all
the
time
and
and
and
we
have
a
lot
of
things
in
common
and
the
things
that
we
don't
have
in
common
are
are
overtaken
tremendously
by
the
things
that
we
do
have
in
common.
So,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
you
this
saturday
for
the
bay
of
pigs.
K
Yeah,
thank
you
to
all
you
do
quietly
that
most
people
don't
see
all
the
great
things
you
do
in
the
community
and
thank
you
for
being
a
guide
to
all
of
us
throughout
west
tampa
from
arco,
edis
to
all
the
other
great
places
out
there
and
don't
forget
catchatories
catchatories
yeah.
R
K
You
just
became
an
investor
in
that
or
something
I
think
so
yeah.
Okay,
congratulations
on
that.
Yeah
you've
been
as
a
serial,
multiple
entrepreneur
besides
your
investing
day.
So
thank
you
for
investing
in
the
private
sector
and
entrepreneurship
and
building
up
businesses
as
well,
and
I'm
glad
to
see
you
in
this
new
role,
what
a
great
way
to
honor
your
friend
and
also
it's
fun,
to
see
you
being
able
to
give
away
money
and
touch
the
organizations
that
you
love.
Thank
you.
G
G
M
I
want
to
echo
everyone
and
saying
thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
and
with
great
honor
also
comes
great
responsibility,
and
it
sounds
like
you
are
the
right
person
to
take
that
responsibility
on
and
and
pass
along
her
gift
to
the
community,
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
that.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
R
Very
much
sir,
and
I
I
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
say
that
first
of
all,
councilwoman
hertek,
congratulations
that
you
know,
even
though
I
want
to
piggyback
on
what
councilman
vieira
said,
we
may
not
always
agree,
and
that's
okay,
it's
america,
but
the
one
thing.
I
will
tell
you
that
it
is
always
with
respect
that.
I
I
think
of
all
of
you
and
that
you
know
you
are
underappreciated
for
the
job
that
you
have
to
do.
R
You
know
the
pay,
isn't
all
that
great
and
it's
it's
it's
a
commitment
and
a
passion
and
and-
and
it
is
appreciated
from
all
of
us
when
we
agree
with
you
and
when
we
don't
agree
with
you,
it
still
is
appreciated.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
your
service.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
N
Don't
bite
yet,
mr
chairman
council
members,
it's
my
pleasure
today
to
make
a
presentation
on
behalf
of
tampa
city
council.
You
know
when
you've
been
here
for
25
years
and
you
work
in
a
position
like
mr
taylor.
Does
it's
so
important
to
do
what
he
has
done
for
25
years?
It
is
tampa
city's
council's
pleasure
to
present
this
combination
to
george
taylor
jr
for
his
untiring
and
outstanding
contribution
made
to
the
citizens
of
the
city
of
tampa
throughout
his
25
years
of
service.
N
Your
commitment,
sir,
in
making
the
city
very
enjoyable,
safe
environment
for
motorists
and
pedestrians
required
you
to
stay
abreast
of
the
industry
standards
in
order
to
keep
changing.
You
got
to
keep
learning
and
teaching
the
rest
of
us
as
well
as
the
advanced
traffic
management
system.
You
will
all
be
remembering
your
efforts
on
behalf
of
the
city.
Tampa
city
council
commends
you
for
your
dedication
to
the
city's
traffic
management
center
and
it's
with
deep
regret
that
you're
leaving.
N
P
Thank
you
councilman
morning,
chair
morning,
council.
This
is
somewhat
of
a
bittersweet
moment.
I
know
that
george
is
really
happy
to
be
free
enough
to
do
as
many
cruises
as
he
wants
to,
and
we
all
know
he
has,
but
he
leaves
very
big
shoes
to
fill
so
george.
We,
we
called
him
dr
george,
by
the
way
at
the
traffic
management
center,
partly
because
george
was
the
person
responsible
for
training.
Every
new
person
that
joined
the
traffic
management
team,
whether
it
was
an
engineer,
a
technician
or
any
other
role.
P
George
was
the
person
that
trained
them.
He
even
had
the
unfortunate
distinction
of
training
me
not
much
good.
That
did
right,
but
george,
you
know
we
we
heard
about
sean
mohave
and
his
contributions
to
special
events.
Earlier
today,
with
tpd
there's
a
slew
of
different
teams
from
various
city
departments
that
work
in
the
background
to
support
ppd
and
other
and
others
and
special
events.
P
George
is
one
of
those
I
think
just
about
every
gasperla
for
the
24
years
that
he's
been
working
for
the
city
he's
been
behind
the
console,
adjusting
traffic
signal,
timings,
making
sure
that
evacuation
patterns
were
set
in
case
of
an
emergency.
Thankfully,
we've
never
had
to
use
those
he's
one
of
those
team
members
that
you
never
typically
see
but
is
very
consequential
to
the
results
in
the
ground.
So
we're
going
to
miss
you,
george.
J
And
george
again,
it
is
a
bittersweet
moment
today.
I
just
want
to
say
that
george
is
part
of
the
team
that
we
used
to
call
the
traffic
management
center.
We
still
do
but
that
traffic
management
center
is
part
of
our
new
smart
mobility
division
and
the
reason
we
changed.
That
name
is
because
george
and
his
colleagues
have
been
a
big
part
of
evolving
us
into
the
21st
century
of
using
big
data.
They
started
connecting
with
waze.
J
They
george
was
involved
with
our
advanced
traffic
management
center
transition
from
our
old
software
to
the
new
software
and
all
of
the
infrastructure.
That's
going
on
the
connected
vehicle
technology
with
autonomous
vehicles.
J
So
george
has
been
part
of
that
team
that
has
taken
us
into
the
21st
century
and
getting
us
up
to
speed
on
all
those
new
advances
we
can
utilize
to
make
our
roadways
safer,
manage
our
traffic
congestion,
better,
manage
our
speeds
better,
and
so
I
want
to
thank
him
for
all
his
contributions
and
he's
going
to
be
sorely
missed,
but
I
know
he
won't
be
shedding
any
tears
on
those
cruises.
So
thank
you,
george.
Here's.
N
The
accommodation
doctor,
I'm
sorry,
I
called
you,
mr
dr
george,
and
for
all
the
work
you
do
and
as
things
change,
you
have
like
they
say:
gas,
peril
and
everything
else
everything
changes.
Those
systems
got
to
change
and
you're
the
one
that
works
and
digitally
to
make
sure
that
the
city
is
safe
and
traffic
management.
Thanks
again
for
our.
H
B
So
george
has
with
the
city
for
about
25
years,
the
last
five
of
which
I
had
the
pleasure
of
working
with
him
on
my
name
is
brandon
campbell,
I'm
the
manager
of
the
smart
mobility
division
and
one
of
the
things
that
george
used
to
say
to
me.
A
lot
was
I'm
keeping
you
out
of
trouble.
He
was
a
very
proactive
employee,
but
he.
B
H
B
H
N
A
A
All
right,
are
they
ready
all
right,
I
gotta
hand
it
down
a
little
bit.
D
A
So
these
are
the
folks
from
el
gallo
de
oro
in
west
tampa
over
in
fiesta
plaza.
I
think
we've
all
been
there
anytime.
Anybody
in
the
family
was
sick,
chicken
soup
from
edgar.
That's
where
you
go
a
staple
in
west
tampa
our
community,
our
neighborhood
you're
gonna
be
relocating
to
a
different
spot.
Where
are
you
going
exactly?
I
don't
know
yet,
but.
A
All
right,
all
right,
well
you'll,
be
missed.
The
food
is
always
great.
The
people
are
even
better.
We
appreciate,
I
mean
you
when
you
have
a
restaurant
you're
married
to
that
restaurant,
you
are
there
working
and
you
know
serving
the
community
and
and
you're
going
to
be
missed.
I
mean
my
grandmother
introduced
me
to
a
guy.
When
I
was
a
kid
you
know
so
it's
you
know
the
words
coming
out
of
our
mouth.
A
You
know
for
years
and
years
and
years,
but
we
have
this
commendation
from
tampa
city
council,
signed
by
everybody
and
I'll
just
read
it
quickly,
presented
to
el
gallo
de
oro.
That
has
been
a
permanent
fixture
in
west
tampa
for
35
years.
The
family
owned
and
operated
cuban
restaurant
is
known
for
its
thick
sandwiches
and
stacked
dinner,
platters
and
a
great
chicken
salad
that
I
asked
you
guys
to
make
which
is
really
not
on
the
menu,
but
it's
very,
very
good.
The
guido
salad,
the.
B
H
A
A
Mindful
you
know,
I
found
a
west
tampa
way
to
do.
Keto
the
restaurant,
located
at
fiesta
plaza
created
a
space
for
our
residents
to
enjoy
delicious
food
and
camaraderie
for
decades,
despite
closing
of
their
doors,
which
had
to
be
a
very
difficult
decision
to
make
the
impact
of
your
family's
incredible
contributions
to
our
community
will
be
remembered
for
years
to
come,
and
it
is
our
honor,
profound,
honor
and
privilege
to
present
agayo
deodo
with
this
commendation
on
the
12th
day
of
april
2022..
Thank
you.
B
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
everybody,
and
you
know
me
being
a
four
generation
campaignian
and
being
able
to
be
honored
to
be
married
to
this
woman,
and
them
show
me
the
ropes
and
to
be
able
to
take
that
restaurant
and
be
able
to
do
what
we
did
for
what
how
long
we
had
it.
I
just
want
to
say
every
person
that
walked
through
that
door
was
considered
family
and
to
this
day,
when
I
walk
anywhere
in
west
tampa
anywhere
in
tampa,
you
know
you
are
always
going
to
be
in
my
community.
B
B
F
B
N
D
To
say
anything
anybody
you
know,
I
will
I
I
got
to
know
you
all
about
man
about
a
year

a
half
ago,
during
all
of
the
cuba
of
marches,
that
we
had
our
friend
tony
garcia,
connected
us
and
we
immediately
clicked.
You

are
good
people,
you're,
very
good,
hard
working
people
and
you
guys
are
also
a
very
nice
family.
You

D
Let
me
in
on
on
some
of
y'all's
neat
traditions,
including
all
your
horror
movie
stuff,
which
I
think
is
so
cool
and
all
that
and
you're
very
passionate
about
your
beliefs
and
very
passionate
about
where
you
come
from
in
your
life
journeys
based
upon
that
belief,
and
so
are
you
all
actually
moving
to
ocala
soon.
Q
We're

we
still
don't
know.
B
D

Are

Thank
you.
So
much
life
story
is
tampa
and
your
journey
is
tampa
and
and
we're
always
gonna
know
you

and
please
ruffle
feathers,
no
matter.
If
I
disagree
or
disagree.
D
D
Is
my
great
pleasure,
mr
chairman,
to
give
a
tampa
city
council
commendation
today
to
our
autism,
autism
friendly
tampa
advisory
board
in
honor
of
what
is
autism
awareness
month
april
every
single
april?
Throughout
the
year
we
we
discuss.
D
We
put
a
special
emphasis
on
autism
awareness,
mr
chairman,
and
the
many
different
facets
of
that,
including
the
personal
life
stories
of
people
who
are
dealing
with
this
condition
and
family
members
who
are
dealing
with
this
condition
and
what
better
things
we
can
do
as
a
society
and
as
a
government,
whether
it's
a
federal
government
state
government,
local
government,
to
be
more
autism
friendly.
D
We
know
that
under
the
past
administration,
we
began
a
journey
for
making
the
city
of
tampa
autism
friendly,
which
is
something
that
I
know
that
we
all
support,
and
that
includes
making
sure
that
all
of
our
departments
are
properly
trained
with
proper
sensitivity
etc
for
people,
regardless
of
their
sensory
challenges.
We
have
here
a
number
of
people
here
today
from
our
city
of
tampa
autism,
friendly,
tampa
advisory
board,
including
kristen
nieves
liz
burke,
christine
rover,
joyce,
cotton
and
mr
mark
fleming
is
raquel
was
raquel
abel?
D
What
a
shame
raquel
pancho
could
not
be
here
today,
but
this
board
does
tremendous
work
here
throughout.
Our
city
of
tampa
has
provided
valuable
insight
during
the
parks
and
recreation
master
plan,
master
plan
meetings
on
how
to
make
sure
that
all
of
our
city
of
tampa
parks
are
autism
and
disability
friendly.
D
They
also
assist
our
first
responders
and
making
sure
that
they
are
sensitive
and
highlighting
the
the
basic
core
critical
needs
of
this
population.
So
it
is
my
great
pleasure,
mr
chairman,
and
members
of
council,
to
give
to
the
autism
friendly
tamper
advisory
board
a
city
of
tampa
commendation.
Who
would
like
to
accept
this?
B
Good
morning
my
name
is
liz
burke
and
I'm
here
with
card
the
center
for
autism
and
related
disabilities
at
usf.
I'm
honored
to
be
here
on
behalf
of
the
autism
friendly
tampa
committee
for
those
who
may
be
unfamiliar
with
this
initiative.
The
committee
was
formed
in
2017
and
since
then
has
worked
towards
making
tampa
a
safe
and
welcoming
community
for
individuals
with
autism
and
their
families
card
has
trained
city
of
tampa
employees
and
other
business
professionals
about
autism
and
provided
specific
strategies
to
help
people
with
asd
be
more
comfortable
and
successful
on
their
community.
B
A
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
councilmember
vieira,
for
bringing
this
up.
I
have
a
a
nine-year-old
stepdaughter
with
severe
autism
and,
of
course
now
you
know
everybody
lives
here.
My
my
wife
moved
up
here,
and
that
was
one
of
her
biggest
concerns
because
there's
I
have
two
stepdaughters
and
the
youngest
one
with
autism
lives
with
us,
and
it
was
what
are
the
services
that
tampa
offers?
What
kind
of
schools
do
we
have?
What
kind
of
parks
we
kind
of
facility?
What
can
we
do
for
her
and
tampa
has
so
much.
A
I
mean
she
came
from
port
charlotte,
which
is
very,
very
limited,
but
there's
a
great
school.
I
take
her
early
in
the
morning
before
I
come
here
and
they're
great
parks,
great
facilities,
great
places.
You
know
my
goal
is
that
she
has
a
life
like
any
other
kid
and
gets
to
enjoy
all
the
things
that
all
other
kids
get
to
enjoy.
A
So
I
appreciate
all
that
you
do.
It
means
a
lot
to
me
personally.
Her
name
is
whitney.
I
call
her
the
little
princess
and
she
will
be
happy
to
tell
you
that
she
is
the
princess
and
happy
to
remind
us
all,
but
thank
you
for
for
helping
making
her
life
happier
and
better.
We
appreciate
it
very
much
councilman
goodes.
A
G
So
I'm
hoping
that
your
organization
can
get
to
neighborhoods
community
associations,
some
of
these
marginalized
schools
that
aren't
really
what
I
feel
are
not
really
giving
that
extra
help
or
pushing
those
kids
in
a
special
class,
or
here
there
and
not
realizing
the
signs,
because
once
I
got
involved
many
many
years
ago,
I
was
able
to
help
one
of
my
family
members,
and
now
he
was
able
to
help
another.
Because
I
saw
some
of
the
displays
that
they
were
exhibiting.
G
M
I
also
want
to
thank
you
as
a
former
elementary
school
teacher
who
specialized
in
a
lot
of
areas
of
children
who
needed
special
attention.
It's
it's
particularly
nice
to
see
that
it
is
not
just
in
the
education
realm
anymore
and
now
that
we're
breaching
branching
out
to
the
community
and
really
making
I'm
thinking
from
a
child's
perspective,
but
from
children
and
all
members
to
not
just
get
that
support
in
the
education
sphere,
but
also
to
get
it
everywhere.
So
thank
you
for
all
of
your
work.
L
Thank
you
very
much
and
and
councilman
vera.
I
know
that
you've
been
the
champion
on
this
and
congratulations
for
your
artwork.
I
have
a
a
friend,
a
young
friend
named
grant
that
is
with
autism
and
every
time
he
comes
into
town
to
visit
his
abuela.
He
has
to
get
his
hair
cut
by
joe.
That's
the
first
thing
he
wants
to
do.
L
He
is
the
most
brilliant
young
man
that
I've
ever
met
in
my
life
he
has
needs,
I
have
some
people
say
special,
I
just
say
different,
and
these
autistic
children-
if
we
don't
know,
we
just
don't
know-
and
this
education
that
we're
helping
with
especially
the
city
of
tampa.
Some
of
these
children's
are
sensitive
to
sounds.
Some
of
them
are
sensitive
to
action.
Some
of
them
are
sensitive
to
movement.
So
I
thank
you
for
for
your
crusade
and
councilman
vera.
Again,
congratulations
to
you.
N
Councilman,
thank
you.
As
council
members
have
spoken,
it's
the
individuals
like
yourselves
who
have
given
so
much
to
help
people
have
equality,
fit
what
their
needs
are
and
again,
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
councilman
vieira
for
his
starwood
movement
and
making
sure
that
the
playgrounds
all
have
the
quality
of
fit
so
that
they
can
play
like
anyone
else
and
what
you
guys
do.
It's
really
heartworm
warming
and
thank
you
very
much
for
the
work
that
you
do.
God
bless
you
all.
N
N
So
I'm
not
happy
that
you're
leaving
the
city
council
isn't
happy
that
you're
leaving,
but
you
are
going
to
enjoy
yourself
and
still
be
with
us
in
the
city
of
tampa.
It
is
tampa
city
council
pleasure
to
present
this
combination
to
alta
bakari
for
his
outstanding
achievement,
dedication
contribution
and
ability
to
ensure
tampa
five
moveable
bridges.
All
the
sea
walls
and
all
the
roadways
are
safe.
Your
36
years
of
service
to
the
city
of
tampa
is
indicative
of
your
loyalty
and
dedication
to
our
residents.
N
N
P
You
councilman,
and
so
councilman
miranda
just
mentioned
two
things:
perfectionist
detail,
oriented
I'd
like
to
add
a
couple
of
other
adjectives
that
describe
my
experience
with
altaf
he's
kind,
he's
gentle
and
he's
considerate,
and
these
mean
a
lot
to
me.
P
Additionally,
beyond
being
just
a
great
professional
personally,
I
benefited
from
altaf's
experience
as
a
first
generation
immigrant
from
india
moving
in
you
know,
35
40
years
ago,
and
and
that's
really
blazed
the
trail
for
other
people
like
myself
and
I'm
thankful
to
him,
and
he
leaves
a
really
good
team
behind
similar
to
george
he's
trained.
His
team
members
they're
very
well
prepared,
and
I
wish
him
the
very
best
gene.
J
Good
morning,
council
I'm
going
to
try
not
to
cry
here
but
all
top,
and
I
go
back
many
many
years.
Of
course
I
was
I'm
sure
in
grade
school.
When
we
met
right,
we
won't
go
there.
I
just
want
to
point
out
some
of
the
amazing
things
altoff
has
done
in
his
tenure
here
at
the
city
anytime,
you
drive
under
I-75
the
beautiful
bridge
that
goes
over
in
the
new
tampa
area.
We
call
it
the
new
tampa
boulevard
bridge
altaf
was
our
project
manager.
J
For
that
I
have
to
say
it's
one
of
the
most
beautiful
bridges
you
go
under,
there's
no
vanilla
on
it.
It's
got
some
texture
and
some
aesthetics
and
all
top
was
kind
enough
to.
Let
me
weigh
in
on
that
project
and
add
a
little
bit
of
embellishment
to
it.
Another
bridge
he
worked
on
is
the
40th
street
bridge.
J
We
replaced
that
bridge
as
part
of
the
widening
and
reconstruction
of
that
100
million
dollar
project,
and
I
think
we
have
what
40
bridges
in
the
city
of
tampa
so
many
times
during
the
day,
you're
driving
over
a
bridge
that
altoff
has
been
making
sure
that
we
get
those
bridge
inspection
reports.
We
take
care
of
that
scour
on
those
davis,
island,
bridges
out
there
in
the
water
and
but
to
add
on
to
his
conjugations
from
the
engineering
side.
J
I
also
want
to
agree
with
vic
that
he
is
the
most
kind
and
generous
colleague
he's
always
willing
to
share
information,
he's
very
helpful
with
taking
on
interns
to
share
his
knowledge
and
he's
a
very
unique
and
special
person.
We're
going
to
miss
him
very
much.
So
congratulations
all
top.
Thank
you.
H
First
of
all,
I
thank
to
the
god
that
he
has
given
me
opportunity
to
serve
or
use
my
knowledge
and
help
the
community
as
well
as
first
I'd
like
to
thanks
my
parents,
who
send
me
to
the
college
to
make
and
to
become
an
engineer
and
many
times
they
have
not.
Even
they
will
skip
their
lunch
or
food
actually
so
because
I'm
coming
from
a
very
poor
family.
But
when
I
came
here
in
1982
and
my
wife,
she
helped
me
to
go
to
the
usf
and
I
graduated.
H
I
will
stay
here
and
I
will
be
always
be
trying
to
give
my
back
to
my
city.
That
is
my
hope,
and
I
will
do
that
things
and
thank
you,
my
all
colleagues
who
has
given
me
support,
and
especially
the
bridge
operation
department,
drafting
department,
all
my
staff.
They
always
help
me
to
keep
this
bridge
safe,
and
so
the
people
can
be
safe
in
the
city
of
junior.
N
A
It
seems
that
all
the
great
people
are
leaving
us
and
you're
one
of
the
greats
when
I
first
got
elected
and
and
parked
here
outside
one
of
the
first
days.
You
were
one
of
the
first
people
to
shake
my
hand
and
say
and
always
saying
hello,
always
as
vic
said
you
know
always
kind
and
gentle,
and
we
need
more
of
that
in
the
world.
You
know,
there's
big
big
shoes
to
fill
with
you
leaving,
but
thank
goodness
we
have
vic,
we
have
cal,
we
have
gene's
leadership.
A
I
mean
we're
really
blessed
with
a
wonderful
department,
but
you
leaving
is
a
tremendous
loss
to
this
city,
but
your
fingerprints
are
everywhere
the
service
that
you've
done
the
work
that
you've
done
and
as
councilman
miranda
said
perfect,
and
that's
who
you
are.
I
mean
you
you're,
very
passionate,
but
your
commitment
to
this
city
and
all
your
work
is
greatly
greatly
appreciated.
Thank
you,
sir.
Thank.
L
N
With
us
today
on
this
presentation,
the
muffin
cancer
center
or
valley
gerard
ken
zuwala
and
bobby
mckee,
it's
my
pleasure
again.
You
know
it
was
36.
Ironically,
the
engineer
had
36
years
of
service.
Maf
is
going
to
be
36
years
of
service.
So
I
guess
everybody
should
play
the
lottery,
starting
with.
B
N
You
got
one
leg
up,
but
it's
it's
I'm
not.
The
combination
is
one
thing,
but
what
moffitt
has
done
for
this
community
and
for
the
whole
country?
People
come
from
all
over
the
world
to
come
to
muffin
and
what
I've
seen
there.
I've
seen
some
machinery
that
I
had.
Never
that
was
last
year,
so
I
imagine
you
got
something
even
newer
where
they
can
see
you
top
and
the
bottom
of
the
whole
human
body
as
they're
doing
some
type
of
surgery.
That
is
so.
N
That
means
that
minimal
little
things
they
can
find
that
a
lot
of
places
that
they
don't
even
recognize
because
they
can't
see
them
and
and
what
you
all
do
in
your
micro
labs,
how
you
make
the
they
gave
you
a
sample
of
a
cell
and
then
the
cells
come
to
fight
with
that
cell.
The
bad
cell
gets
beaten
up
and
that's
how
the
cancer
is
being
cured
to
some
degree,
I'm
not
an
expert
on
it,
but
what
I've
seen
it
was
something
that
was
amazing
to
me.
But
thank
you
for
the
36
years
of
moffat.
N
C
Thank
you
good
morning,
council
and
thank
you
councilman
miranda
for
this
recognition
of
minority
cancer
awareness.
A
moffatt
is
a
gym
in
our
community
and
the
work
that
we
do
is
transforming
lives.
Our
our
mission
is
to
work
for
the
prevention
and
cure
of
cancer.
This
is
significant.
We
heard
earlier
about
ms
burnett
and
her
generous
contribution
and
her
journey.
C
This
is
important
today,
because
minorities
are
disproportionately
impacted
by
cancer,
and
so
the
work
that
we
are
doing
is
not
only
for
the
entire
community,
but
this
particular
initiative.
I'm
honored
to
chair
the
george
edge
combs
society
at
moffitt
cancer
center,
and
our
work
is
targeted
at
making
sure
that
we
are
communicating
with
minorities,
helping
to
ensure
that
there
is
prevention,
early
detection
and
screening
and
treatment
for
those
cancers
that
disproportionately
impact
people
of
color.
C
We
heard
a
little
bit
about
pancreatic
cancer
and
it
can
be
devastating,
but
for
people
of
color
it
is
almost
a
death
sentence.
There
are
a
number
of
cancers
that
disproportionately
affect
our
outcomes,
and
so
the
work
that
we're
doing
in
the
george
antichrome
society
is
focusing
is
raising
funds
targeted
at
research.
Some
of
the
things
that
you
witness
to
the
labs
some
of
the
innovative
technologies.
C
We
are
investing
in
those
researchers
that
are
coming
up
with
cures
and
treatment
on
every
single
day
that
improving
the
outcomes
of
those
that
are
affected.
So
we
thank
the
counsel.
Thank
you.
Councilman
miranda,
on
behalf
of
the
board
of
directors,
I
serve
on
the
institute
board
and
the
hospital
board.
C
So
I'm
a
volunteer
and
chair
this
initiative,
but
we're
working
to
ensure
that
everyone
knows
that
they're
welcome
at
moffitt
and
have
an
opportunity
to
receive
the
best
possible
care
to
ensure
their
health
outcomes,
and
we
know
the
health
equity
is
what
we
all
need
to
be
working
towards.
So
thank
you
again
on
behalf
of
our
entire
board.
All
of
our
team
members,
our
clinicians,
our
researchers,
all
the
volunteers.
C
Thank
you
so
much
and
thank
you
to
this
community
for
its
continued
support.
Thank
you.
Councilman
miranda.
N
You
know
moffat
not
only
gives
you
hope.
In
most
cases
it
gives
you
cure
20
years
ago
or
36
years
ago.
Most
of
these
cancers
would
have
been
devastating
to
anyone.
Now
the
majority
of
them
can
be
sustained
for
a
while,
where
you
get
10
15
years,
20
years
life
longer
and
some
of
them
are
cured
a
hundred
percent.
Yes,
and
that's
what
it's
all
about
the
tampa
city,
I
say
something
sure.
I'm
sorry
sorry.
B
B
I
had
stage
four
in
my
throat
14
years
ago
and
at
that
time
that
was
considered
a
death
sentence,
but
with
the
help
of
prayers
and
the
gentleman
upstairs,
he
had
a
reason
for
me
to
live
and
that's
the
volunteer.
So
that's
what
I
do
at
moffitt
I
volunteer
and
help
anybody
who
needs
anything
to
help
get
through
cancer,
and
I
just
got
done
with
prostate
cancer
so
and
things
are
working
good.
Thank
you
for
your
time,
and
this
has
been
a
very
interesting
meeting.
Thank
you.
N
Ken
don't
leave,
can
I
what
you
just
said
there
is
just
how
many
volunteers
is.
Muffin
have
a
lot
of
about
900
of
them
900
volunteers,
and
when
you
go
to
moffat
those
volunteers,
they
give
you
hope
and
inspiration,
no
matter
how
down
you
are
in
yourself,
and
you
have
to
be
not
feeling
too
well
physically
and
mentally.
N
N
The
tampa
city
council
recognizes
the
moffitt
cancer
center
for
institutional
establishment.
The
george
ed
combs
society
in
2017,
the
society
through
its
donors,
provide
funding
for
support,
moffitt
research
studies
and
addresses
cancer,
health
disparities,
specifically
in
the
african-american
community.
The
city
recognizes
that
the
month
of
april
is
minority
cancer
awareness
month
and
that
the
george
h
combs
society
at
muffin
cancer
center
is
hosting
a
second
annual
virtual
event.
N
On
april
28
2022,
the
city
joins
with
the
muffin
cancer
center
and
our
mutual
hope
of
engaging
moffitt
research
and
clinical
faculties,
where
the
community
served
sharing
research
findings
and
increasing
outstanding
and
important.
The
impact
of
cancer
health
disparities,
research
on
the
minority
population
and
grateful
appreciations
for
the
moffitt
center,
what
it
all
does
for
the
community.
The
tampa
city
council
presents
this
accommodation
on
the
12th
days
of
april
2022.
A
A
But
in
the
last
several
years
I've
met
people
that
say:
oh
tampa,
moffat
saved
my
life
or
my
mother's
life
or
I've
gone
down
there
for
treatment,
and
we
are
so
blessed
to
have
moffatt
here,
because
they
have
helped
endless
people.
They
have
cured
and
saved
lives
and
made
lives
more
comfortable
for
so
many
people,
and-
and
I
can't
not
mention
your
awesome,
ceo,
dr
who.
B
A
I
met
him
last
year
at
a
dinner.
I
think
yeah
a
little
bit
over
a
year
ago.
What
a
wonderful,
individual
and
he's
got
his
band.
What
is
it
the
the
remission,
the
remissions
he
plays,
keyboards
yeah
go
on
twitter.
Follow
him
on
twitter.
You
have
some
talent,
he
goes
the
singer.
Is
this
one's
a
doctor,
this
one's
an
oncology,
nurse
whatever
it
is,
but
what
a
unique
special
wonderful
place
that
I
mean
you
know.
The
reputation
that
moffett
has
is
is
is
unbelievable.
So
thank
you
so
much.
D
Thank
you
yeah.
No,
just
thank
you
guys
for
all
that.
You
do
I'm
glad
that
there's
the
george
edgecombe
component
there,
because
that's
such
a
pivotal
part
of
our
history,
legally
from
a
legal
community
and
otherwise,
but
you
know,
moffat
it.
It
means
something
to
all
of
us,
but
more
to
others
right.
You
know
it's
funny.
We
just
started
talking
about
autism
and
you
know
we
all
know
what
autism
is,
but
it's
not
critical
to
you
until
it
affects
you.
D
That's
right
same
thing
with
cancer
got
a
good
friend
of
mine
who
had
brain,
has
brain
cancer.
Young
guy,
never
thought
he'd
have
cancer.
Suddenly
he
and
his
family
know
a
lot
about
moffat,
don't
they
they
know
a
lot
about
moffat.
So
you
know
when
a
lot
of
people
speak
about
moffat,
they
they
talk
about
it
from
very
personal
journey,
because
somebody
that
they
love
has
been
affected
by
cancer.
That's
right!
So
it's
really
personal!
So
just
thank
you
for
all
that.
You
do
it's
it's
in
that
recognition.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Councilman.
L
E
L
Reintroduced
into
the
body
to
help
the
body
itself
fight
cancer,
I
I
was
just
a
god.
Thank
you
for
everything
you
do
not
only
for
people
in
tampa
underprivileged
people,
but
people
from
all
around
the
world.
Thank
you.
C
M
Sign
me
up
for
that,
because
I
would
absolutely
love
to
see
it
and
I
want
to
say
thank
you
especially
for
focusing
on
the
minority
community.
I
know
a
lot
of
women
with
breast
cancer
in
the
community
and
I
it's
so
important
to
teach
those
skills.
M
I
have
a
very
dear
friend
who
had
surgery
the
day
I
was
appointed
and
we're
still
waiting
on
her
results,
but
I'm
I
I
just
know
she's
in
good
hands,
and
I
really
appreciate
everything
you
do
like
councilman
vera
said
it
really
touches
us
personally,
and
I
just
I
never
worried
about
her
and
she's
she's,
already
home
and
she's
recovering
and
we're
waiting
on
the
news,
but
I
know
whatever
happened,
she's
in
great
hands,
just
really
appreciate
all
you
do
well.
Thank
you.
B
G
In
my
community
sometimes
we're
afraid
to
go
to
the
doctor,
especially
men.
Secondly,
no
healthcare
insurance,
it's
the
scale,
isn't
balanced.
So
somehow
we
got
to
find
a
way
to
balance
the
scale.
So
we
can
get
some
health
care.
So
a
lot
of
folks
in
my
community
can
get
to
a
doctor,
can
can
be
seen.
G
A
B
C
A
Last
one
is
also
councilmember
miranda's.
This
one
is,
I
feel,
like
making
a
motion
that
ryan
manassey
doesn't
doesn't
leave
and
stays
with
us.
This
is
a
a
huge.
G
C
N
N
Very
rarely
we
get
to
see
him
in
person
because
of
the
covet
and
things
that
we've
had,
but
brian,
it's
with
deep
heart
that
you're
leaving
and
you've
done
an
outstanding
job
in
the
years
you've
been
there.
You
also
had
a
great
teacher,
and
you
want
to
name
her.
The
teacher
gloria
moreta
corbin.
N
Person
she
to
my
knowledge,
was
one
of
the
best
that
anybody
could
ever
have
working
in
that
department.
She
was
very
loyal,
very
straightforward
and
told
you
in
a
mannerism
that
you
couldn't
even
get
mad
with
her,
but
she
told
you
just
how
it
was
just
like
it's
done,
brian,
it's
a
pleasure
that
we
present
to
yourself
the
planning
and
development
coordinator
with
this
combination.
You
supported
tampa
city
council
during
every
evening
session,
aiding
council,
with
their
deliberation
concerning
many
vital
zoning
decisions
affecting
the
city
and
its
citizens.
N
We
would
like
to
also
say
we
remiss
if
we
did
not
express
our
appreciation
and
gratitude
for
your
services
that
you
had
as
a
member
of
the
united
states
marine
corps.
Also,
your
comm
demeanor
and
expertise
will
be
solely
missed,
and
I
mean
that
sincerely
on
behalf
of
every
one
of
us.
We
wish
you
every
possible
success
in
your
future
endeavor.
Thank
you
for
everything
you've
done
on
behalf
of
the
tampa
city
council.
B
First,
congratulations:
councilwoman,
hertek
on
your
appointment
and
good
morning,
city
council.
It's
a
pleasure
being
here,
and
I
appreciate
this
accommodation
the
last
seven
years
have
flown
by.
B
For
me,
I've
made
some
great
friendships,
great
staff,
that
works
with
me
and
or
worked
with
me
leaders
and
professionals,
and
it's
funny
because
you
see
the
amount
of
staff
that
may
be
here
and
it's
our
department's,
not
that
much
bigger
and
as
you're
aware,
development
is
quite
intense
right
now
and
they're
managing
to
get
this
through
and
that's
something
that
stood
out
in
my
time
with
the
city
is
the
the
citiz
or
the
employees
and
how
we
can
manage
that
type
of
workload
and
get
everything
through
so
again,
thank
you
for
this.
B
I
appreciate
all
your
staff
as
well
mary
bryan's,
been
amazing
over
the
years
lisa
during
covid.
You
know,
we've
all
banded
together
and
made
it
work.
So
I
appreciate
it
again
and
thank
you.

things,
different
workshops
and
various
cases
and
seen
his
great
knowledge
of
the
city
of
tampa.
Also
with
his
charismatic
personality
now
you're
just
stuck
with
me.
Sorry,
he
smiles
through
the
ups
and
downs,
putting
any
issue
out
or
fire,
which
was
seems
with
ease.
B
He
says
that
he's
a
human
cyclopedia,
or
so
we
say
if
he
knows
it,
he'll
tell
you
off
the
bat
if
he
doesn't
he'll,
be
the
man
to
tell
you
first
thing:
he
can,
when
the
pressure
is
on,
he
steps
up
he's
one
of
the
most
hardworking
most
charismatic
and
driven
individuals.
I've
ever
met
in
my
32
years
of
existence.
