and
I'll
go
through
the
details
at
that
time.
So
let
me
go
to
staff
reports.
Okay,
administrative
update.
L
Good
morning,
John
Bennett
Chief
of
Staff,
originally
I
did
not,
but
the
fact
that
we're
recognizing
historical
black
colleges
and
universities,
if
I,
could
have
just
10
seconds
to
share
something
with
Council.
Okay.
Every
week
before
Council
I
get
an
ebo
report
from
the
equal
business
opportunity
and
I
just
wanted
to
share
that
black
business
Enterprise.
Your
date
is
worth
over:
46.6
million
dollars
worth
of
services
and
goods
to
the
city
and
I
just
thought
that
was
worth
sharing
with
Council
in
the
public
this
morning.
So
thank
you.
Thank.
J
I
I
just
want
to
cheap
in
it.
I
just
wanted
to
publicly
thank
you
again
and
the
mayor
and
all
the
staff
for
the
collaborative
process
over
the
last
couple
weeks.
I
think
and
I
also
texted.
The
mayor
I
think
that
process
it
wasn't
perfect.
You
know
everybody
had
their
Pleasant
minds,
but
it
was
an
example
of
what
we
can
do
going
forward
if
we
all
work
together.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody
for
doing
that.
Thank.
L
You
staff
worked
hard
on
that,
and
I
also
want
to
just
mention
that
I
know
Mr
James
Ransom
was
here
the
other
night
of
Toba
and
he
he's
been
a
big
supporter
of
getting
our
ebo
together
and
council's,
been
a
big
supporter
and
Advocate
and
I
want
to
credit
former
councilman
John
dingfolder
for
a
lot
of
that
approach
too,
to
to
get
our
equal
business
opportunity
where
it
needs
to
be.
So.
Thank
you
for
all
of
that.
I
just
thought
it
was
worth
pointing
out
this
morning.
D
D
I
would
like
there
is
a
a
memo
from
Mr
bday
Transylvania
report,
but
this
is
to
discuss
an
update
on
the
storm
water
project
and
program.
We
may
hear
during
public
comments
some
other
storm
water
issues
which
I'm
going
to
bring
up
at
at
that
time.
Does
anybody
else
have
anything
now
so
we'll
have
Mr
bday
present
for
65.
item
number
66
council
member
clendenner.
M
D
H
From
my
understanding
and
Mr
Shelby
can
help
me
on
this.
Things
have
changed
and
there's
not
much.
We
can
actually
discuss
okay
if.
N
I
can
at
this
current
time,
if
you,
if
you
can,
if
you
wish
to
receive
and
file
at
this
time
or
when
the
item
comes
up.
Perhaps
after
public
comment
in
the
order
of
business,
you
can
do
a
receiving
file
at
that
time,
but
you
have
a
memo
from
Deputy
City
attorney,
Kate
Wells,
who's
present
in
Abby
feely,
the
Deputy
Administrator
for
development
and
growth
management,
and
when
we
get
to
that
item,
if
it's
discussed,
we
will
be
able
to
have
a
discussion
about
it.
D
D
O
D
That's
fine!
Thank
you.
Any
objection
from
Council,
no
okay,
all
right
man,
I,
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
agenda
and
the
addendum
to
the
agenda.
We
have
motion
councilman,
Miranda,
second
council
member
Henderson,
all
in
favor,
all
right,
all
right,
council
member
Vieira
go
ahead.
O
Come
on
the
whole
Market
clients
whoa.
It's
a
real
pleasure
here
today
to
honor
a
guy
that
I
really
like
a
lot
and
I've
known
for
a
very
long
time.
Come
up
here,
judge
and
it's
funny
folks,
even
after
long
after
they
retire.
If
you're
an
attorney,
you
always
call
them
a
judge.
That's
just
the
way.
O
Here,
his
wonderful
brother,
Randy
who's
here,
his
wonderful
niece,
Tara
and
Barbers
Kramer
who's
here
and
then
his
niece's
husband,
I,
guess
Jake
Kramer
who's
here,
I'll
do
that
later,
but
but
judge
barbus
is
a
really
really
exceptional
individual
who
graduated
from
Jesuit
High
School
and
then
would
go
to
aleola
undergraduate
and
Loyola
Law
School,
where
he
would
graduate
in
1975..
O
Bob
Mitchum,
who
I
knew
was
a
wonderful
man,
Charlotte
Anderson
and
Diana
Allen
judge
Rex
barbas
is
board
certified
in
Civil
Trial
law
and
would
excel
in
the
practice
of
law,
including
teaching
classes
at
USF
and
for
our
Tampa
Police
Department.
He
would
create-
and
this
is
interesting
so
I
I
did
a
little
research
and.
O
Would
create
the
first
guava
ween
Festival,
while
serving
on
the
board
of
the
Ybor
City
Chamber
of
Commerce?
His
family
has
very
very
deep
roots
in
Ybor
City
that
they're
all
very,
very
proud
of
in
1996.
He
would
run
for
and
join
the
Circuit
Court
when
he
would
serve
with
great
distinction,
and
he
is
a
man
of
many
many
passions.
His
excellence
in
the
practice
of
law
is
open
and
obvious,
and
everybody
knows
about
it,
but
he's
also
involved
in
a
lot
of
different
initiatives
for
12
13
years.
O
Judge
barbus,
as
well
as
judge
nicknizarreton,
has
served
as
our
sensory,
friendly
Santa,
seeing
probably
about
1500
kids,
if
not
more,
maybe
2
000,
who
have
autism
and
different
intellectual
disabilities
as
our
century-friendly
Santa
for
lawyers,
Autism
Awareness
foundation,
and
something
that's
really
neat.
Also
about
Judge
barbus
with
his
wonderful
wife
is
they
have
barba's
Fine
Art,
which
is
at
4223,
West
Bay
to
Bay
and,
and
they
are
artists
and
do
paintings
and
different
things
and
do
just
and
judge
barbus
does
amazing
work.
P
O
Barbus
is
a
very,
very
proud
father
and
grandfather,
including
to
his
son
staff,
sergeant
Casey
barbus,
who
has
done
one
tour
in
Afghanistan
and
two
tours
or
strike
that
one
tour
in
Iraq
and
two
tours
in
Afghanistan
for
his
country
and
now
judge
barbus
is
working
as
a
mediator,
but
I
wanted
to
take
time
to
honor
this
great
man
for
all
that
he
has
done
for
our
Hillsborough
County
through
almost
40
years,
30
70
years
or
so
as
service
36
years
as
a
Hillsborough
County
Judge,
since
I
first
became
an
attorney
20
years
ago,
I've
known
judge,
Rex,
barbas
and
just
known
of
his
excellence
and
his
dedication
to
the
law.
O
P
Real
quick,
first
of
all,
I,
really
appreciate
what
you
all
do
on
a
daily
basis
and
that's
obvious
from
last
week
which
you've
done
collaboratively
and
I
wish.
Our
Congress
could
be
as
collaborative
as
you
all
are,
and
I
really
mean
that
first
of
all,
I
want
to
give
I've
grown
up
with
two
principles
and
both
of
them
from
Jesuit.
P
First
one
is
the
land
motto
of
the
Jesuits
I'm
majoring
de
Gloria,
for
the
greater
glory
of
God.
Everything
should
be
done
for
the
greater
glory
of
God
so
to
him.
I
give
great
praise,
and
thanks
and
the
other
motto
is
from
our
high
school,
become
a
man
for
others
and
that's
what
I've
tried
to
do.
My
entire
career
I
hope
to
continue
to
do
it
even
in
retirement,
but
beyond
that.
P
P
P
You
can't
say
enough:
wonderful
things
about
them
and
what
they
do
for
the
community,
so
first,
first
family
and
then
friends
and
the
people
that
have
helped
you
so
I
can't
do
anything
without
the
help
of
others.
So
everybody
I've
worked
with
that's.
What's
given
me
the
power
to
to
do
what
I've
done
and
with
that
I.
Thank
you
all.
D
Congratulations.
This
is
well
deserved.
I've
known
you,
I've
known
of
you,
because
I
went
to
school
with
your
kids
back.
D
D
Was
all
impressed
like
whose
dad
is
picking
him
up
on
you
know
on
this
I
guess
it
was
a
Harley
but
I
went
to
school
with
your
kids.
D
Casey
was
a
year
younger,
Carlos
a
year
older
and
then
your
daughter
was
even
younger,
but
I
know
your
family
and
I
know
Taryn
here
in
the
audience
and
you're
and-
and
you
know
her
husband
and
and
I've
gotten
to
know
you
more,
you
know
politically
and
whatnot
I
know
you
know
my
dad
and
everything
and
you're
just
you're
you're,
a
wonderful
person,
wonderful
family
I
mean
you
said
it
all
your
other
brother.
D
R
Thank
you
very
much.
I
I
admire
that
ponytail.
You
had
I've
known
your
whole
fact,
I'm,
so
young
that
I
remember
your
father,
who
was
a
doctor
I
believe
yes,
sir,
and
he
evidently
taught
the
Three
Brothers
in
the
family
well
because
of
his
giving
he
worked
at
Gonzalez,
clinic
and
other
clinics
where
they
would
go
to
your
house
when
you
got
sick
and
checked
on
you
and
today
that's
gone,
but
guess
what
it's
coming
around
again
now
it's
a
new
thing.
R
Well,
it's
a
new
thing
this
year,
but
it's
been
an
old
thing
for
many
years
ago,
but
your
family
has
always
been
out
there
reaching
out
to
helping
everyone,
no
matter
who
you
were
where
you
came
from
to
give
them
an
opportunity
to
go
forward
and
I
know
you
spent
a
year
in
bed
and
you
went
with
the
motorcycles
and
I
spent
a
year
without
moving
my
left
leg,
because
I
got
hurt
with
a
horse.
R
Now
you
had
a
lot
of
horsepower
and
I
had
one
horse
and
I
spent
enough
time,
and
just
like
you
did
so
I,
don't
understand
all
that.
But
it's
it's
what
you
want
to
do
with
your
life
and
it's
not
how
anybody
looks
or
how
tall
you
are
or
how
small
you
are
whatever
it's.
What
you
do
to
help
Society
give
somebody
a
hand
up
instead
of
a
push
down
and
you
and
your
whole
family.
R
A
R
P
C
M
Public
Service
is
like
one
of
the
highest
callings
to
dedicating
your
life
to
to
it.
You
know
it's
one
of
the
things
you're
not
going
to
become
a
billionaire,
but
you
know
you
give
this
so
much
for
the
community
and
I
appreciate
everything
that
you've
done
for
our
community
and
I
just
want
to
I'll
leave
it
at
that.
You
know.
God
only
grants
the
pretty
ones
more
face.
So
that's
that
this
is
what.
M
H
Someone
who
can
who's
been
able
to
in
their
career
follow
the
tenants
that
you
spoke
of
you
know
really
focusing
your
attention
and
your
your
time
in
life
on
helping
others
and
I.
Think
that
is
incredibly
Noble
and
we
are
grateful
for
that
and
I
want
to
say.
You
know
thank
you
for
all
that
you
have
done
for
our
community
and
also
congratulations
on
retirement.
It's
often
hard
to
know
when
to
stop.
I
H
Just
gonna
stop
going
to
an
office
every
day,
but
you're
going
to
continue
on
in
that
way,
because
it
it's
very
clear
to
me
that
you
are
a
person
who
will
forevermore
follow
those
two
tenants
and
once
once
that's
in
you
it's
hard
to
get
out.
That's
the
someone
who's
followed,
a
sort
of
similar
path
or
just
really
figuring
out.
What's
right
with
the
world
and
helping
others
and-
and
it
is,
there
is
no
greater
calling
and
thank
you
and
your
wonderful
family
for
all
the
time
they've
put
in.
J
I,
just
I
want
to
start
Council
council
member
Vieira
I
want
to
start
in
case.
There
are
little
kids
watching
to
clarify
what
you
said
earlier,
that
he's
actually
friends
with
Santa
just
to
make
that
make.
J
Are
confused
second
I
want
to
say
thank
you
for
everything.
You've
done,
like
my
colleagues
have
said,
and
and
congratulations
on
your
retirement
I
know
your
other
brother
and
Taryn
and
Jake
and
their
family
better.
They,
your
other
brother
lives
across
the
street
from
me,
so
I
see
him
all
the
time
and
your
family
has
made
such
a
great
contribution
in
so
many
ways
to
this
community,
and
you
know
continuing
on
through
the
generations
to
do
that,
and
we
we
can't
thank
your
family
enough
and
into
the
future.
J
You
know
your
your.
Your
other
brother
is
very
involved
in
Ebor.
Your
family
has
Deep
Roots
there
and
you
all
know
a
lot
about
the
history
of
Ybor.
So
please
join
us
in
the
effort
to
build
a
new
eboard
to
make
sure
we
hold
on
to
the
great
things
from
the
past
as
well.
Lots
of
volunteer
efforts
look
forward
to
seeing
you
there
and
keeping
you
really
busy.
If
you
have
any
time.
Thank.
A
C
Good
morning
again,
thank
you.
Chair
next
week
is
by
White
House
initiative.
President
Joe
Biden
signed
it
initiative
to
celebrate
and
recognize
historically
black
colleges
and
universities
all
over
the
United
States
right
here
in
the
city
of
Tampa
and
in
the
municipal
government.
We
have
many
people
who
serve
this
city,
who've
graduated
from
historical
black
colleges,
just
a
few
of
them
are
here
today
we're
going
to
be
recognizing
them
all
week
during
the
lunch
hours
in
our.
C
What
is
that
room
called
sister
city
room
in
the
sister
city
room
and
on
Friday
I'm,
inviting
those
graduates
and
alumni
and
supporters
to
a
reception
during
the
lunch
hour
on
Friday,
but
just
to
show
you
that
it's
the
impact
it
is
even
in
the
smallest
way.
This
morning
there
are
several
of
us
in
the
room.
C
Who've
attended
HBCU,
so
please
stand
raise
your
hand,
Darlene
Bethune
cookman,
University,
Nicole,
Travis
Hampton
University,
my
sorority
sister
Brina
Fields,
who
brought
the
invocation
this
morning
from
Spelman
College
myself,
a
graduate
of
Florida,
a
m
University
and
Miss
Mary,
our
aide
to
Charlie
Miranda.
Her
daughter
is
a
graduate
of
Florida,
a
m
University.
C
Is
there
anyone
else
that
I'm
missing
out
here
today,
Miss
Shirley,
Fox,
Knowles
Florida,
a
m
University
Rattlers,
so
I
could
just
go
on
and
on
and
on
I
think
it's
very
important
that
our
city
pays
homage
to
the
many
many
many
community
members
I
if
I
started,
I
wouldn't
be
able
to
stop
with
those
who
broke
in
barriers
right
here
in
municipal
government
George,
E
Edgecombe.
C
His
name
is
on
a
building
today
he's
a
graduate
of
Morehouse
College
and
Howard
University
law,
so
I
can
just
go
on
and
on
and
on
and
I
think
it's
just
important
and
I'm
so
humbled
that
the
council
unanimously
moved
this
motion
so
that
we
can,
year
after
year,
bring
this
recognition
to
our
community
and
it
just
gets
bigger
and
better.
So,
thank
you
so
much
all
right.
Thank
you
very
much.
C
U
C
We
will
have
the
proclamation
next
week,
along
with
the
recognitions
all.
D
Right
all
right
still
outside,
so
no
no
they're
doing
pictures.
If,
if
we
have
someone
from
Big,
Brothers
and
Big
Sisters
here,
if
they're
ready
to
present,
are
you
Mr,
Chad
Mitchell?
Yes,
I
am
all
right
come
on
up,
so
we
have
Mr
Chad
Mitchell
VP
of
partnership,
engagement
for
big
brothers
and
big
sisters
of
Tampa,
Bay
and
you're,
going
to
provide
a
short
overview
of
the
program,
including
how
the
city
is
supporting
and
I.
Believe
you
have
a
a
video
at
the
end.
I
do
I
do
councilman
viewer.
S
Good
morning
Council,
thank
you
so
much
for
giving
me
the
opportunity
to
speak
today.
S
We
call
them
Defenders
of
potential,
and
so
you
know
I
want
to
quickly
just
give
a
shout
out
out
to
the
city
of
Tampa
the
mayor
and
her
team.
They
have.
They
are
truly
Defenders
of
potential.
You
know
not
only
have
they
introduced
us
to
all
branches
of
the
city.
S
We
have
the
mayor's
big
initiative,
which
is
to
get
50
plus
employees
on
a
consistent
basis
that
are
consistently
volunteering
with
us,
and
so
that's
going
great
and
I
truly,
truly,
truly
just
want
to
give
kudos
to
them.
I
also
want
to
give
kudos
to
our
Alphas
I,
see
some
Alphas
in
the
room.
We
have
a
great
partnership
with
Alpha
Phi
Alpha
and
we
have
our
you
know
we're
in
conjunction
with
their
men
of
Tomorrow
program.
S
It's
a
National
Partnership,
but
we're
leading
in
Tampa
Bay
when
they
had
their
when
they
had
their
National
Conference
I
believe
out
in
Dallas.
That
was
one
of
the
things
that
was
top
of
mind
is
because
every
single
agency
across
Big
Brothers,
Big
Sisters,
is
following
Tampa
in
regards
to
the
partnership
that
we
have
with
our
Alpha
Phi
Alpha.
So
I
truly
appreciate
that
as
well,
but
just
kind
of
getting
into
the
program
so
I.
S
You
know
I
briefly
talked
a
little
bit
about
what
we're
doing
with
the
city
of
Tampa,
but
we
have
a
site-based
program
which
just
for
is
one
hour
a
week
as
little
as
one
hour
a
week.
You
can
make
that
that
little
bit
of
change,
but
it
makes
a
big
difference
in
that
child.
That
little
bit
of
time
makes
a
big
difference
in
that
child's
that
child's
life,
and
so
for
one
hour
a
week
you
can
go
to
a
local
school
and
be
that
one-to-one
Mentor.
S
We
also
have
a
community-based
program
where
you
can
pick
them
up
from
home,
take
them
out
in
the
community
and
spend
that
one-on-one
time
with
them
as
well.
But
it's
funny
and
I'll
tell
you
a
quick
story.
Somebody
asked
me
they
said
you
know
what
does
one
hour
a
week
do
for
a
child.
How
can
I
make
a
difference
for
one
hour
a
week
and
so
I
had
a
mother
come
to
us
one
time
she
actually
came
to
our
site-based
program
and
she
actually
said
you
know
I
needed
some
help.
S
She
was
a
single
mother.
She
had
a
young,
a
a
young
boy
in
her
life
and
she
also
had
an
older
daughter,
but
she
wanted
to
get
him
connected
in
our
site-based
program.
So
when
he
got
connected
one
of
the
biggest
issues
that
he
had
was
he
hated
math
couldn't
stand
math.
He
thought
the
math
teacher
hated
him.
It
caused
Rift
between
him
and
his
mom.
He
didn't
want
to
get
up
for
school
at
times,
and
she
just
she
just
wanted
somebody
that
he
could
connect
with.
S
More
importantly,
she
wanted
a
male
figure
to
come
into
his
life,
knowing
that
he
unfortunately
didn't
have
that
you
know
at
home,
and
so
when
he
was
connected
in
our
site-based
program
that
one
hour
a
week,
this
gentleman
started
to
start
coming
and
seeing
him
at
a
school
at
his
school.
Amongst
all
his
friends,
you
know
hey.
Who
is
that?
Can
we
hang
out
with
you?
You
know
his
big
wanted
to
hang
out
with
him.
He
wanted
to
spend
that
one-on-one
time
and
he
was
all
about
it.
S
He
was
like
listen,
we'll,
hang
out
a
little
later,
I'm
with
my
big
brother,
and
so
it
wasn't
until
he
started
hanging
out
with
his
big
brother
and
spending
that
time
that
he
started
to
realize
you
know
you
know,
I
really
appreciate
him.
He's
here,
he's
not
just
saying
he's
going
to
be
here
that
he
doesn't
come
back
he's
here
every
single
week
and
it's
only
for
one
hour,
but
it
made
a
big
difference
to
that
child,
and
so
one
day
that
child
looked
at
him
and
he
said
what
do
you
do
for
a
living?
S
What
you
know?
What
what
do
you
do
outside
of
here
so
he
started
talking
about
his
occupation
and
that
he
was
an
engineer
when,
knowing
that
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
the
little
did
not
like
was
math,
he
asked
him.
He
said
you
got
to
be
good
at
math
to
be
an
engineer,
and
so
it
was
at
that
point
in
time
where
his
his
big
looked
at
me
said.
Well,
you
know
you
have
to
have
a
liking
for
math.
S
He
said
you
don't
have
to
be
excellent
at
it,
but
you
have
to
want
to.
You
know,
get
to
know
it
and
understand
it,
and
but
it
was
at
that
point
in
time
where
that
little
that
young
man
went
home
and
his
mom
shared
with
me.
She
said
when
I
got
home
that
day
and
I
looked
at
my
daughter,
I
was
bewildered,
I,
didn't
understand
what
was
going
on,
because
my
son
was
sitting
at
the
kitchen
table
with
his
math
book
open
doing
his
math
homework
and
I
know
every
single
time.
I
come
home.
S
I
have
to
tell
him,
listen,
get
your
homework
out.
Let's
do
this,
it's
almost
a
struggle.
It
was
an
argument
you
know,
and
so
she
looked
at
her
she
said:
did
you
do
this?
Did
you
tell
him
to
do
this
and
she
said
no,
he
decided
to
do
it
himself,
and
so,
when
she
had
a
conversation
with
him,
she
said.
So
what
what
changed
your
mind?
Why
did
you
open
your
math
book
on
your
own?
What's
what's
going
on,
he
said
I
want
to
be
an
engineer.
S
In
regards
to
how
the
communication
between
him
and
his
mom
and
overall
it
changed
what
he
wanted
to
do
because
he
looked
up
and
he
saw
somebody
that
only
only
spent
one
hour
a
week
one
hour
a
week,
but
it
made
that
big
of
a
difference
and
so
I'm
here
today
to
ask
each
and
every
one
of
you
to
consider.
You
know
mentoring,
a
child,
not
that
you
already
don't.
Maybe
you
already
do
but
who's
around
you
that
you
may
know
that
can
do
that.
S
Maybe
you
can
Advocate,
you
know
volunteer
in
some
shapeway
form
or
fashion.
You
know,
but
more
importantly,
taking
on
a
child
for
as
little
as
one
hour
a
week
and
seeing
the
difference
that
it
can
make
is
truly
what
our
community
needs.
It's
truly
what
our
community
needs
so
many
times
we
look,
and
we
say
you
know,
look
at
the
issues
that
we're
facing.
Why
are
these
youth
doing
this
and
why
are
they
doing
that?
But
these
children
are
born
to
do
bad
and
they're
not
born
to
do
good.
They
have
no
clue
they're
taught.
S
We
can
teach
the
things
they
do
in
a
positive
manner
and
so
I'm
here
today
to
say
not
only
thank
you
to
the
city
of
Tampa
for
all
the
support
that
I've
gotten
and
that
we
received
thank
you
to
each
and
every
one
of
you
for
the
things
that
you're
doing
that
people
may
not
even
know
about,
and
thank
you
to
our
office
but,
more
importantly,
let's
continue
to
take
this
charge
forward.
S
S
Now
and
I'd
also
like
to
take
a
look
at
this
license
plate
here
we
are
going
to
actually
put
this
in
most
of
our
DMVs,
but
if
you
want
to
support
in
some
way,
you
want
to
Advocate.
This
is
a
great
way
to
do
that.
So
please
take
that
into
consideration.
We
hope
that
every
single
person
in
here
will
get
one.
Thank
you
very.
W
U
Y
V
X
V
M
D
O
Thank
you,
Mr,
chair
I.
We
have
wanted
for
a
while
to
honor
our
good
friends
at
camp
hopitaki
and
and
by
the
way
before
I
begin
coming
up
guys.
Please
and
Simon.
Please
yeah
come
on
up,
so
we
have
a
very
special
guest
who's
coming
with
us,
a
dog
by
the
name
of
Denali
that
some
of
y'all
have
met.
O
But
before
she
comes
in
I,
would
ask
her,
while
she's
in
the
room,
no
clapping,
because
clapping
triggers
issues
with
with
wonderful
Denalis,
so
here's
Denali
I
actually
want
to
clap
I
want
to
clap
for
this
dog,
but
we're
not
going
to
so
here
you
go
and
a
wonderful,
wonderful
dog,
but
we're
here
to
talk
about
burn
victims
and
of
wonderful
work
that
some
individuals
and
institutions
in
our
community
do.
We
have
here.
O
Mr
Alex
kanasi,
with
the
Tampa
firefighters
charity
fund
and
with
Camp
Pope
is
that
camp
hopataki
camp
director.
We
have
here
his
very
proud
dad
who's
filming,
Mr,
Simon
kanasi
who's
here
and
with
the
not
just
as
a
proud
dad,
but
with
the
Tampa
firefighters
charity
fund,
we
have
Ashley
Rowe
with
Tampa
General
Hospital
and
Mr
Matthew
Cohan,
one
of
my
favorite
people
on
Earth
and
his
dad
is
a
wonderful
man
was
all
supposed
to
be
here
today.
O
But
Matt
is
sick,
unfortunately,
couldn't
be
here
today,
and
we
also
have
here.
Denali
and
I'll
talk
about
Denali
in
a
little
bit
that
beautiful
dog
and
her
wonderful,
Handler,
Miss,
Carrie
Barrett
who's
here
Gary.
Thank
you
for
coming,
so
we're
here
for
a
dual
accommodation
for
the
wonderful
work
that
these
two
institutions
do
here
in
Tampa
for
burn
victims.
O
We
have
here
Camp
hopataki,
which
is
a
week-long
sleep
away,
camp
for
kids,
age
8
to
17,
and
the
long
story
short
on
this
Camp
is
it
allows
kids
who
are
pediatric,
burn
survivors
right
to
have
an
environment
100
free
of
charge
where
they
can
be
who
they
are
be
around?
Some
medical
professioners
be
around
some
fire
Fighters
and
some
other
professionals
where
they
can
talk
about
being
kids
and
suffering
through
the
things
that
they've
gone
through
and
suffering
through.
Some
of
the
emotional
challenges
that
happen
in
life.
O
This
wonderful
Camp
provides
a
safe
environment.
Again
is
100
free.
There
was
a
quote
from
a
youngster
who
went
through
camp
popitake
where
they
said
quote.
They
look
at
my
skin
and
say:
I.
Look
disgusting.
My
skin
looks
horrible
and
stuff
like
that.
I
wasn't
used
to
getting
out
of
the
house
because
everybody
was
making
fun
of
me.
So
I
stayed
inside
all
day
in
Camp,
opotaki
gave
me
a
home
and
that's
what
camp
popitake
is
all
about,
and
Alex
is
one
individual
along
with
Miss
Rowe
and
others
who
helped
lead.
That
effort.
O
I
first
learned
about
Campo
Pataki,
maybe
about
13
14
years
ago
through
Jace
Cohan,
who
used
to
be
the
Personnel
Chief
here
for
Tampa
Fire
and
was
the
treasurer
for
Local
754.
Before
that
Jace
Cohan
did
a
lot
of
work
with
Camp
popataki.
His
son
Matt
has
done
a
lot
of
work
and
then
Jeremy
Finney,
who
today
by
the
way,
is
in
a
754
board
meeting.
O
O
Sometimes
these
are
our
furry
friends
or
dogs
can
provide
such
Comfort
to
people
in
their
saddest
moments
in
life
in
August
of
2013
Denali
nearly
died
when
her
owner
Dallas
Denali
her
husband's
favorite,
dog
and
gas,
and
and
left
an
ollie
there
to
die
a
horrible
death
because
of
a
domestic
dispute.
Police
said
that
she,
the
the
individual,
left
six
dogs
out
of
the
house,
but
trapped
Denali
in
a
kennel
and
then
set
the
house
on
fire,
and
this
individual
would
serve
eight
years
in
prison
for
this
terrible
act.
O
Now
Denali
works
as
a
dog
comforting,
burn
victims
and
people
who
have
are
survivors
of
abuse
and
and
we're
here
to
honor
Denali
now,
I
have
no
problem.
As
I've
said
before,
with
giving
Council
accommodations
to
animals,
we
did
it
to
Shadow
a
a
dog
that
saved
Marine
lives
overseas
in
Afghanistan,
and
now
we
do
it
to
Denali.
So
for
that,
let
me
if
I
may
and
again
we're
not
going
to
have
any
clapping
Alex.
If
you
want
to
go
ahead,
sir,
and
you
want
to
speak,
sir,
you
won't
thank.
Q
You
first
I'll
I'll
address
Denali,
so
so
they
can
do
you
know
their
their
accommodation
and
leave
without
any
clapping,
but
denali's
been
great.
I
actually
met
Denali.
Many
years
ago
we
threw
a
fundraiser
for
her
and
and
dogs
in
her
similar
condition,
and
we
were
really
honored
to
do
that
and
then
to
have
Denali
come
back.
You
know,
healed
to
visit
the
kids
at
Camp
whole
Pataki
has
been
essential.
The
kids
love
deny
she's
a
very
sweet
dog
and
she's
also
insta-famous.
Q
AA
As
as
everyone
has
said,
she
she
touches
many
lives
and
she
actually
changed
my
life,
because
I
had
not
thought
about
doing
any
kind
of
therapy
work
before
Denali
came
into
my
life,
so
the
experiences
that
that
I've
had
with
her
and
watching
how
she
comforts
you
know,
pediatric
burn
survivors
and
domestic
abuse.
Survivors
has
been
absolutely
amazing
and
I'm,
so
honored
to
be
here
and
I'm,
so
proud
of
her
I
knew.
AA
I
was
going
to
cry
from
everything
that
she's
overcome
and
she
hasn't
lost
that
spark
she's
so
resilient,
and
that's
why
you
know
people
love
her
and
the
kids
love
her
because
they
see
a
a
kindred
spirit
in
her
as
well,
and
so
she
she
has
become
insta
insta-famous.
Her
Instagram
is,
is
pretty
wild
because
people
follow
her
and
they
love
the
feel
good
content
and
to
watch
her
visits
and
her
brother
Hugo's
visits
as
well.
AA
So
I
can't
thank
you
enough
for
honoring
her
and
the
amazing
work
that
she
does
and
she
does
have
yeah.
She
has
her
own
trading
cards,
which
we
give
out
to
kids.
It
has
her
story
on
the
back
and
the
kids
love
that
they
collect
it.
We
have
stickers
and
everything
too,
so.
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you
very
much.
AE
I
I
guess
I
want
to
say
that
I'm
blessed
through
my
job
as
a
nurse
and
to
work
for
the
organization
I
work
for
to
work
for
the
unit
I
work
for
in
the
burn
center
and
to
be
able
to
treat
people
on
their
worst
day
in
their
worst
moment
and
try
to
get
them
to
a
better
place
and
transitioning
into
the
job
that
I
do
now.
AE
With
the
burn
program
coordinator,
I've
been
blessed
to
work
with
Alex
and
Matt,
who
I
couldn't
ask
for
a
better
team
in
doing
campobitaki
and
to
meet
these
kids
and
to
just
genuinely
feel
touched
by
their
story
and
their
position
to
be
a
better
adult
and
to
see
that
kids,
don't
let
something
so
traumatic
hold
them
down,
so
I
mean
I.
Would
thank
you
for
this
recognition,
but
I
really
couldn't
do
it
without
Alex
and
Matt,
and
obviously
my
job,
my
boss
and
my
co-workers
as
well.
Thank
you.
Q
So,
just
getting
back
to
Camp
as
a
whole
I,
my
parents
taught
me
never
to
come
to
someone's
house
empty-handed,
so
we
brought
some
swag
from
camp.
We
have
monogram,
towels
and
and
backpacks
for
Council
and
again
thank
you
for
having
us
today
and
thank
you
for
this.
This
recognition
I
also
need
to
thank
Tampa
fires,
Administration
for
supporting
us
throughout
our
33
years
of
Campo.
Pataki
I
also
need
to
thank
Tampa,
General's
Hospital.
Excuse
me
Tampa
General
Hospital's
foundation
for
their
support
as
well.
Q
They
are
our
50
50
partner
on
this
and
and
they've
been
essential
throughout
this
journey.
Also,
of
course,
I
need
to
thank
our
sponsors,
who
have
been
Been
instrumental
in
making
sure
that
we
can
provide
this
service
in
this
camp
for
these
kids
at
no
cost
to
them.
All
we
tell
them
is
if
you
can
get
the
kids
there,
we'll
take
care
of
the
rest
and
and
the
the
kids
themselves
are
teaching
us
more
than
we
could
ever
teach
them.
Q
But
finally,
I'd
like
to
dedicate
this
award
to
the
people
who
really
deserve
it
and
that's
the
people
who
volunteer
as
Camp
counselors
every
year.
They
spend
up
to
a
week
away
from
their
own
families
and
children
so
that
they
can
spend
time
with
these
kids
who
who
really
really
benefit-
and
you
know,
I'm
looking
forward
to
many
more
years
as
director
and
and
I've
enjoyed
the
ride
thus
far
and
I
can't.
Thank
you
enough
for
this
recognition
today.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
R
You
I
many
years
ago,
retired
firefighter
now
Frank,
sedakasi
and
Alf
Wars
are
the
ones
that
introduced
me
to
Hope
Camp
open
talking
it's
hard
to
pronounce
that
word,
but
it
means
hope
for
everyone,
I
guess,
because
everyone
that
I
know
that's
gone
there
and
they
even
took
me
to
the
tour
and
showed
me
the
people
who
really
needed
help
there
in
and
out
of
the
hospital,
and
it's
an
amazing
thing
what
you
all
do
to
rehab
some
person.
R
First
of
all,
you
got
to
rehab
the
mind,
because
if
you
don't
rehab
the
mind,
the
body's
never
going
to
have
the
ability
to
do
anything
and
the
work
that
all
of
you
do
not
yourself
as
the
leader
of
the
group,
but
every
firefighter
and
everyone
that's
associated
with
your
group,
is
a
marvelous
thing
to
give
somebody
again
some
vision
of
hope
that
you're
going
to
have
a
life
that
you'll
want
to
have,
and
in
some
of
these
cases,
when
you
see
them
before
and
after
you
think,
you're
looking
at
two
different
people,
and
it's
really
one
that
has
really
changed
and
the
invigoration
of
life
and
the
energy
has
come
back
to
them
because
of
what
you
all
do
on
a
daily
basis.
R
So
I
want
to
thank
you
personally
and
your
group
for
doing
what
you
do
and
all
the
ones
that
you
you
followed
like
Frank
and
Al
and
the
rest
of
them,
but
thank
you
very
much
for
what
you're
doing
on
a
daily
basis.
Congratulations
to
you
and
your
organization!
Thank
you,
sir.
D
Ma'am
well,
congratulations
on
this
very
well
deserved
recognition,
councilmember
Miranda
said
it
best.
You
know
thank
you
for
all
you
do
for
the
community
and
how
you
touch
and
change
people's
lives
and
all
the
people
that
not
just
the
sponsors
but,
like
you,
said
those
that
take
a
week
away
from
their
family
and
children
to
dedicate
themselves
to
helping
others.
You
know
lifting
their
Spirits,
improving
their
lives
whatever
it
is.
D
It's
nothing
but
good
things,
and
we
sincerely
appreciate
you
and
your
team
and,
of
course,
Denali
a
very
a
sad
but
inspirational
story,
because
Denali
now
touches
more
lives
in
a
positive
way.
So
we
appreciate
it
very
much.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
So
much
councilmember
clenden.
M
Yeah
I've
I've
had
a
hard
time.
I
haven't
fall
back
my
tears,
I
I
was
up
here
crying
too.
You
know.
I
I
had
a
stuff,
a
rough
start
in
my
life
as
well,
but
it's
not
about
where
you
came
from,
but
it's
about
what
you're
doing
today-
and
you
know
this
so
that
about
Denali
and
then
and
what
you
all
are
contributing
to
kids
and
and
the
community
and
touching
folks
lives.
It
is
it's
a
very
moving
story
and
to
have
the
assistance
of
animals.
You
know
it's
just
I'm.
M
A
anybody
knows
me
or
follows
me.
On
social
media
knows
I'm
a
huge
animal
person.
I
stopped
eating
meat
40
years
ago,
because
of
it
you
know,
yeah
what
a
tremendous
and
an
amazing
story
and
I
it
took
every
bit
of
self-control
I
had
when
when
councilman
fear
was
speaking
for
me
for
me
not
to
run
down
and
sit
there
and
play
with.
AF
M
H
I
feel
very
similar
to
councilman
Clendenin,
obviously,
as
a
big
dog
lover
and
a
former
Elementary
School
teacher,
the
just
the
the
way
that
that
animals
can
often
reach
a
child
that
you
know,
adults
just
can't
and
as
a
as
a
great
Icebreaker,
we
used
to
have
dogs
come
and
read
with
the
kids,
and
you
know
so,
there's
just
there's
something
about
that:
non-verbal
communication
and
then
her
understanding
of
of
the
kids
and
their
situation.
That's
just
really
is
heartwarming
and
touching
and
creative
and
so
I
just
think.
H
It's
really
wonderful.
Obviously,
all
the
work
you've
done
and
all
the
work
you're
going
to
continue
to
do
for
these
children,
but
in
in
continuing
to
to
look
outside
of
a
normal
therapy
to
figure
out.
You
know
how
to
reach
these
kids
and
to
to
really
just
help
them
come
to
terms
with
with
what
happened
to
them
and
how
they
can
just
move
on
with
their
lives
and
know
that
they're.
H
J
Thank
you,
I
just
want
to
add
on
in
and
amplify
everything.
Everyone
else
said
thank
you
for
your
service
to
the
community,
for
your
leadership
and
what
you
all
are
doing
important
work.
So
you
know
we
all
appreciate
everything
you're
doing
going
forward.
Thank.
D
AG
Awesome
good
morning
my
name
is
Michael
wadeoff
from
the
West
Tampa
CDC,
hey
I'm,
here,
to
talk
about.
How
do
we
increase
the
followers
related
to
affordable
housing
connecting
to
funds
see
these
things
is
bringing
it
down
by
way
of
a
new
book
God,
as
our
IRS
I
asked,
requires
the
foundations.
I
can't
give
up
to
five
percent
of
their
gross
income
to
technical
costs.
It
can
be
done
in
two
ways.
The
first
is
correct.
We
all
know
about
that.
AG
That's
over
150
a
thousand
funders
according
to
Foundation
studies
they
give
dollars.
The
next
way
is
called
program,
related
investment
loans,
these
loans
anywhere
from
zivo
to
three
percent.
These
loans
are
the
same
interest
rates
and
their
top
100
foundations
a
year,
so
we
can
get
up
to
500
000.
That
means,
if
we
put
500
000
in
the
deal
with
the
city
for
affordable
housing,
because
it's
a
loan.
If
we
get
that
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
back
to
the
CDC.
Now
we
can
use
that
money
for
affordable
housing,
youth
programs
Etc.
AG
This
becomes
a
good
way
to
clean
and
add
to
the
balance
that
we
know
that's
needed
and
affordable
housing.
These
are
unlimited
dollars
that
we
can
tap
into
by
way
of
this
program.
Related
Ambassador
I'm,
very
happy
to
bring
this
to
the
city
council,
because
now
we're
looking
at
a
new
way
to
bring
in
literally
millions
of
dollars
to
affordable
housing
and,
at
the
same
time,
the
city.
Still
any
organization
can
get
this
now
and
then
with
the
money
they
can
bring
back
your
City
to
improve
their
neighborhood.
K
AH
I
am
aware
that
you
received
a
letter
that
says
that
you
are
not
to
have
communication
but
I.
Think
it's
okay,
public
comment
for
us
to
come
forward.
If
we
have
something
to
say
there
are
not
many
representatives
here
from
that
neighborhood
because
they
know
that
this
meeting
is
for
information
only.
So
they
basically
want
to
hear
what
the
information
is
and
and
basically,
without
going
into
details.
The
city
made
a
decision,
a
developer
started.
Building
they
found
out.
AH
AH
Only
reason
the
neighborhood
got
notification
of
this
design
exception.
One
is
because
there
was
so
much
so
many
complaints
about
trying
to
get
some
information.
AH
This
is
a
proverbial
double-edged
sword,
they're
damned
if
they
do
and
damned
if
they
don't.
If
they
approve
the
design
exception,
the
developer
continues
with
their
project
and
the
neighborhood
loses
it
would
be.
It
would
be
a
safety
hazard,
a
developmental
Hazard
for
the
neighborhood.
It
would
also
set
a
precedent
in
the
neighborhood
for
future
development,
not
to
mention,
even
though
new
unsightly.
AH
There
are
a
couple
of
possible
solutions
that
I'd
like
to
offer
not
that
they're
I'm,
hoping
somebody
who
makes
decision
will
listen.
The
first
one
is
to
make
this
design
exception
too,
which
will
bring
it
before
city
council
and
allow
the
neighborhoods
to
come
in
for
public
comment.
The
problem
with
that
is,
if
they
get
they
design
exception,
even
at
two,
the
neighborhood
still
loses.
The
house
is
still
being
built.
AH
It's
still
something
that
they
don't
want
in
the
neighborhood
only
because
it
does
not
set
The
Code
by
The
City,
the
second
solution
and
I'm
sure
not
only
the
development
department,
but
also
city
council
will
cringe
on
this,
but
they
should
work
with
with
the
developer
correct.
What
is
needs
to
be
corrected?
AH
Have
the
developer
tear
down
what
he's
done
and
exchange
and
also
but
reimburse
them
for
what
he
takes
down?
That's
the
only
way
that
this
neighborhood
will
become
whole
again,
if
you're
just
allowed
the
design
exception
to
go
through
and
that
still
decision
that's
up
in
the
air,
it
will
not
solve
anything
so
I
hope
you
will
think
about
this
and
think
about
a
way
that
you
can
help
this
community
that's
trying
to
retain
their
quality
of
life.
Thank.

Marcus

I'm,
here
to
speak
to
you
about
some
gaps
in
process
that
can
unduly
burden
citizens
and
I.
Ask
for
your
help.
Rectifying
this
as
I
understand
that
we
have
money
allocated
to
revamp
the
code
and
to
kind
of
double
down
on
what
we're
doing
to
see
if
it's
actually
serving
our
citizens
in
the
right
way.
T
The
first
time
the
public
typically
sees
the
development
is
when
it's
in
action
long
after
approvals
of
plans,
design,
exceptions
whatever
it
may
be,
because
the
outcomes
already
been
cemented
without
their
input
or
knowledge.
There
are
limited
courses
of
action
or
the
ability
to
make
a
difference
in
situations
where
approvals
and
permits
design
exceptions
are
allowed
due
to
mistake,
mistakes
or
gaps
in
that
process,
then
citizens
are
armed
duly
punished
by
the
course
of
actions.
In
the
events
that
occurred,
not
only
is
the
neighborhood
negatively
impacted,
but
they
themselves
bear
the
burden
of
the
results.
T
Unfortunately,
since
we're
dealing
with
permanent
structure,
so
is
the
impact
the
impact
is
permanent
not
only
to
our
citizens,
but
also
to
the
Future
developments
in
the
neighborhood.
If
mistakes
are
allowed
to
stand,
then
those
mistakes
then
establish
a
precedent
for
all
future
development.
If
those
mistakes
can
then
be
leveraged
at
any
time
in
the
future
as
it
does
not
expire,
this
keeps
the
opportunity
wide
open
for
a
greater
negative
impact
to
the
neighborhood
and
the
citizens
that
live
there.
T
In
the
end,
the
city
and
the
developers
move
on,
but
the
impact
does
not.
It
stays
there
forever,
not
only
in
the
original
structure,
but
in
the
events
and
decisions
that
influence
that
that
decision
posted
a
decision
should
not
be
negatively
impacted
by
City
errors
or
actions
to
developers.
This
is
an
undue
burden
and
a
process
that
is
outside
their
control
and
most
likely
formed
to
most
citizens.
Therefore,
the
needs
need
to
change
on
how
we
how
events
like
this
are
handled
once
identified.
They
should
be
discussed
with
transparency.
T
Indefinitive
actions
should
be
taken
to
correct
them
without
meaningful
recognition
of
what
has
transpired
and
the
correlation
and
the
correction
of
Errors.
It
further
jeopardizes
The
public's
confidence
in
the
process
and
those
that
govern
it.
A
process
without
accountability
is
a
process.
That's
not
effective
and
does
not
have
the
wherewithal
to
improve
without
the
accountability.
Those
Downstream
from
the
decision
makers
endure
the
faults,
not
only
those,
not
those
making
the
decisions
in
the
end.
Accountability
and
Corrections
have
a
cost.
T
However,
the
cost,
the
city,
those
will
cost
City
less
to
act,
resolve
and
improve
than
it
will
be
to
perpetuate
the
issues.
Therefore,
I
ask
the
council
to
think
about
this,
as
they
rewrite
the
code
and
think
about
things
that
that
are
currently
going
on
in
their
City
to
ensure
that
there's
transparity
transparency
and
accountability
in
our
processes
and
ensure
that
those
that
typically
do
not
have
a
voice,
because
they're
not
involved
in
those
processes
do
moving
forward.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
F
Good
morning,
happy
Thursday
and
I
would
like
to
give
you
all
this
little
word.
What
would
God
grace?
Look
like
in
your
life
good
or
evil
plots,
James,

God,
Is,
My,

My
Soul

Anchored,
In

I
want
to
thank
mayor,
Jane
Kester
for
her
plan
for
diversity
and
we're
coming
and
rest
again
and
working
together.
This
city
council,
for
allowing
spirituality
in
the
chambers
of
the
Tampa,
City
Hall
and
the
trees
from
the
city
and
also
miss
CT,
came
in
the
SBA.
F
Navigator
came,
and
we
had
a
great
meeting
yesterday
and
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
we
have
to
fund
economic
development
for
small
business
so
that
we'll
have
a
chance
to
participate
along
with
everyone
else
in
the
housing
and
neighborhood
programming
and
I
would
just
like
to
thank
you
all
for
allowing
you
know
the
spirituality
to
come
into
the
room.
Thank
you
very
much
and
have
a
good
day.
Thank.

My
name
is
Petra
Frank
Williams
located
at
1112
East
Scott,
Street,
Paradise,
Missionary,
Baptist
Church.
You
know,
I,
think
y'all
think
that
I
come
down
and
hit
a
complain,
but
Matt
grievance
is
now
I've
been
coming
down
here.
A
long
time
when
I
was
coming
down
here,
first
started
coming
out
here
when
no
black
white
woman
was
up.
You
must
consider
to
be
up
there,
so
I
thought
that
they
would
be
conservative
and
help
me
out.
AB
You
know
what
I
got
a
foreclosure
notice
and,
and
my
brother
then,
and
they
only
give
me
30
days
to
get
out
of
there,
which
I've
been
there
for
30
years
and.
AB
If
it
cost
a
some
company
put
a
lien
on
my
property,
which
I
wasn't
aware
of
it
now
so
I
need
to
know
from
you
or
what
what
my
best
possibility
that
I
need
to
take
in
order
to
maintain
my
residence
I
know,
y'all
want
to
tell
me
today,
ain't
gonna,
say
nothing,
but
I'm
I'm
leaning
into
my
Mercy,
is
towards
you
all,
because
nobody
else
seen
the
hell
mercy
on
me
but
God
almighty.
AB
AB
P
AG
AB
N
AB
AB
Because
they
only
give
me
30
days
to
get
out
of
my
house
I
know:
that's
not
right.
Being
a
senior
citizen
being
sickly
got
to
walk
with
my
walk
and
everything
will
look
like
I'm
about
to
give
a
damn.
I
didn't
brought
levels
up
here
to
y'all.
None
of
y'all
respond
not
even
to
me
I'll
respond.
Don't
nobody
respond,
I,
guess
because
of
the
color
of
my
skin
and
who
I
am
my
church
right
there
on
a
Scott
Street,
you
know
what
it
blocked
my
alleyway,
but
I
can't
get
into
my
pocket.
AB
I
told
you
all
about
that.
You
think
you
know
you
all
come
down
and
check
me
out.
No,
nobody
come
down
there.
You
think.
Thank
you.
Thank
the
city
can
miss
treat
certain
people
but
the
rest
of
them.
They
do
good
for
them
and
we
just
wondering
why
am
I
pointing
out
the
way
I
am
mistreated
because
of
the
color
of
my
skin.
Thank.

AC
Good
morning,
Council
good
morning,
Mr
Shelby
City
staff,
Madam
clerk,
Camila
Soto.
Your
friendly
neighborhood
also
happens
to
be
an
attorney
in
an
urban
planner
here
to
just
take
a
few
minutes
to
expound
on
an
issue
that
I
briefly
brought
up
at
our
at
the
council's
9
14
23
meeting
more
specifically
the
the
flooding
issues
that
we're
experiencing
over
in
in
Tampa
Heights
I.
Think
on
the
record.
AC
You
should
have
an
email
chain
that
I've
I've
shared
with
all
of
you,
showing
that
since
2021
I've
been
really
working
with
stormwater
to
get
some
action
sooner
rather
than
later.
With
regard
to
the
flooding
issues
that
we
have
in
our
particular
quadrant
of
Tampa
Heights,
what
that
email
chain
doesn't
contextualize
is
that
I
spent
nearly
a
year
before
that
trying
to
get
to
the
appropriate
department
to
get
some
sort
of
action
on
this
I.
AC
Consider
myself
somewhat
sophisticated
and
well
decently,
informed
in
terms
of
how
to
get
answers
from
local
governments
and,
as
you
can
see
from
that
that
email
chain,
it's
taken
a
long
time
to
basically
get
the
answer
as
a
I
think.
As
of
the
last
email
from
Mr
Mays,
in
that
the
city
stormwater
department
wants
to
wait
for
fdot
to
implement
flood
redress
to
Tampa,
Street
and
Florida
Avenue
personally,
I,
don't
think
that's
an
acceptable
response.
AC
AC
What
will
it
take
to
get
on
the
capital
Improvement
project
list
for
storm
water
address
for
Tampa
Heights?
One
of
my
later
emails
in
that
chain
and
I
want
Miss,
councilwoman
Henderson
and
the
at-large
Commissioners
council
members
to
be
aware:
there's
a
hundred
million
dollars
right
now
being
spent
or
proposed
to
be
spent
on
stormwater
infrastructure,
and
that's
the
current
capital
Improvement
project
list
of
that
46
million
dollar
project
is
slated
for
Parkland
Estates,
10
million
dollar
project
for
Belmar
Gardens.
You
will
notice.
AC
What
I
want
is
to
get
on
that
Capital
Improvement
project
list,
chairman
Maniscalco,
is
so
kind
to
link
me
with
his
legislative
Aid
I,
look
forward
to
collaborating
with
her
and
getting
our
neighborhood
more
actively
involved
in
seeing
some
action
and
because
I
am
a
Shameless
chill
for
USF
football.
There
is
a
reminder
that
USF
plays
rice,
this
Saturday
at
Raymond,
James
Stadium,
hope
you
all
have
your
tickets
and
go
Bulls.

AI
Good
morning
came
in
Corbett
with
the
law
firm
of
Hill
Ward
and
Henderson
I
am
the
property
owners
representative
for
the
properties
that
are
the
subject
of
item
67
and
I.
Concur
with
both
your
City
attorney
and
your
Council
attorney
that
that
item
is
not
appropriate
to
be
substantively
discussed.
Today,
I
would
like
to
place
a
letter
into
the
record
stating
the
owner's
position
just
both
on
the
validity
of
the
stop
work
order
and
the
alleged
violation
code
violation
and
with
that
I'd
just
like
to
add
that
to
the
record.
D
D
AF
Today,
I
am
coming
to
you,
because
I'm
currently
working
on
a
Case
stud
case
study
involving
today's
topic,
which
is
item
59
I,
believe
with
this,
which
is
the
designation
of
the
Johnson
houses
as
a
historical
landmark
which
are
located
at
1248,
East,
Scott,
Street
and
1250
East
Scott
Street
in
Tampa.
AF
I
would
like
to
take
a
moment
and
thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
speak
on
this
subject
again,
although
as
I'm
not
a
resident
of
the
of
the
historic
Central
Avenue
area,
as
a
native
and
current
resident
of
Tampa
I
believe
we
should
preserve
the
Johnson
houses
in
my
research.
I
found
that
the
city
of
Tampa
stored
preservation,
commission
recommended
to
the
city
that
the
Johnson
houses
be
designated
as
historical
landmarks,
representing
the
area
known
as
the
scrubs.
AF
Z
Good
morning,
Council
Connie
Burton.
First,
congratulations
to
the,
but
the
Housing
Initiative
is
greatly
appreciated
of
the
opening
of
the
meeting
in
summer.
The
presentation
I
mean
the
phrase.
The
greater
good
of
God
should
be
our
measuring
stick
on
how
we
get
there
and
I
think
through
that
budget
of
housing.
Since
it
is
a
indeed
a
crisis,
we
add
accountability.
Z
It's
just
like,
oh
so,
I'm
concerned
that
when
we're
in
our
budget
mode
and
partnering
with
Housing
Initiative
Program
that
we
keep
an
eye
and
make
sure
that,
for
the
greater
good
of
what
we're
trying
to
improve
and
working
with
some
of
these
partners,
that
their
salaries
don't
exceed
the
greater
good
of
what
you
want
to
have
accomplished,
and
that
is
housing
opportunities
for
all
The
Mention,
Of,
Tampa,
Housing
Authority
and
where
they
fit
into
this
realm
of
helping
to
assist
the
city.
Since
you
can't
do
it
all
by
yourself.
Z
It
is
the
city
that
the
housing
board
is
comprised
of
members
of
this
city
government
that
is
appointed
to
that
board
I've,
yet
to
see
them
come
here
and
give
a
analysis
of
how
they're
working
to
decrease
homelessness.
What
are
the,
what
is
the
Housing
Authority
doing
to
move
people
toward
home
ownership,
and
sometimes
the
numbers
sound
good,
but
the
reality
in
our
community
is
that
people
are
not
able
to
use
utilize
their
Section
8
coupons
because
of
the
lack
of
availability.
Z
The
Housing
Authority
get
a
lot
of
money.
They
should
be
asked
to
come
here
to
work
with
their
housing
department,
so
we
can
work
in
a
greater
partnership
to
solve
some
of
these
problems
and,
lastly,
I
would
say
that
Michelle
Ben
horn
from
the
real
estate
department,
provided
you
all
with
a
list
of
available
properties
in
East
Tampa.
That
is
not
of
traditional
size
that
you
move
with
great
haste,
so
we
can
start
building
on
those
properties.
Z
D
AJ
AJ
Stated
it's
no
recognition
of
African
people
when
we
speak
y'all,
don't
hear
us,
irrespective
of
what
we
do
or
how
we
do
it.
Y'all
don't
see
us
because
y'all
try
to
connect
us
to
subjugation
and
imagine
African
people
walking
around
from
the
day
we're
born
to
the
day
we
die.
Imagine
Mr,
Moses
Knox,
coming
down
here
at
this
city
council
about
how
they're
treating
him
and
know
the
city
can't
hear
him.
AJ
Workers
act
like
Ku,
Klux,
klans
people
when
it
comes
to
African
people,
if
it's
code
enforcement,
if
it's
the
police
department,
if
it's
the
water
department,
if
it's
the
housing
department,
irrespective
of
what
it
is,
they
treat
us
with
like
a
degree
of
indignation
like
it's
a
certain
kind
of
hatred
for
black
skin
and
that's
what
we
get
and
you
can't
get
answers,
no
matter
where
you
go.
People
white
people
come
down
here.
Oh,
it's
like
a
dog
was
crossing
my
street
and
oh
well.
We
better
get
down
there
and
do
something
about
that.
AJ
Let
my
egg
get
over
there
and
talk
to
them.
Oh
it's
a
tree
that
oh,
we
better
do
something
about
that
black
people
come
down
here
with
real
problems,
real
problems,
real
life
problems
and
y'all,
don't
hear
them.
It's
like
a
deafening.
It's
like
a
definite
silence
like
an
Edward
March,
deafening
silence
like
y'all,
can't
hear
us
and
then,
when
we
go
in
resist
tyranny,
oh
they
looters
they
rioters.
They
shoplifters.
AJ
You
know
that's
what
we
have
to
do
to
be
heard
in
a
Democratic
Society
and
one
of
the
things
I
say
is
I
really
want
to
get
to
the
bottom
of
this.
For
eight
years,
for
eight
years
I've
been
trying
to
find
out.
How
did
you
say
you
served
someone
a
summons
and
no
one
can
find
it
and
have
a
case
going
against
a
person
for
eight
years
the
Hillsborough
County
Sheriff's
Office
can't
get
or
order
Department
of
Revenue
can't
get
to
the
bottom
of
a
summons.
AJ
D
AD
Good
morning,
Council
good
morning,
Robin
Lockett,
so,
as
you
guys
know,
as
everyone
knows,
I'll
come
down
and
be
mean
to
you
when
it's
needed,
but
today
I
want
to
come
up
and
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
vote.
Thank
you
for
putting
housing
on
the
Forefront.
AD
Cherub
I
call
you
Guido,
but
chairman
Maniscalco
you,
you
know
you
set
the
tone
and
you
know
indicating
that
this
is
what
you
know.
If
you
had
the
opportunity,
you
were
going
to
make
a
motion
to
do
that
and
Lynn
and
Gwen
y'all
close
it
up,
but
everybody
had
a
important
part
in
it
and
I
love
the
thought
process.
That's
how
it
should
be
right,
so
I
appreciate
it
and
it
was
all
about
well
housing
and
Fire.
AD
So
we
came
to
a
reckoning,
but
housing
and
fire
are,
you
know,
are
the
top
two
top
two
pressures
that
we
need:
assistance
in
and
resolving
not
discounting
anybody
else,
but
those
those
were
the
two
focuses
there
was
a
motion
made
I
just
want
to
put
a
reminder
out
there.
You
remember,
okay,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
debt
issuance
motion
that
was
possibly
made
is
made
today
so
but
I
just
want
to
come
up
and
thank
you
guys
for
being
very
diligent
making
this
work.
AD
Now
the
money
has
to
go
where,
where
is
outlined
and
allocated
to
go
so
that
people
can
do
what
they
presented,
that
they
want
to
have
done
and
it
gets
done.
So
thanks
a
lot.
W
Good
morning,
Stephanie
Poyner
first
I
want
to
say
thank
you.
The
the
budget
meeting
the
other
night
was
a
breath
of
fresh
air
after
the
two
before
that
number
67
is
not
an
isolated
incident.
W
Here's
a
site
plan
for
a
developer
for
townhouses
that
were
built
in
my
community
notice
that
these
are
12.8
feet
from
the
street.
What's
the
setback
supposed
to
be
I
think
25
I'm,
not
real
sure
off
the
top
of
my
head?
These
are
20
feet
back
okay
and
there
was
an
su1
filed
in
2021
for
these
particular
units
and
then
they
withdrew
it.
Then
they
built
something
that
was
not
up
to
code.
How
did
it
get
passed?
How
did
it
get
sold
to
a
homeowner?
So
now
these
properties
actually
belong
to
other
people.
W
The
Builder
built
them
not
following
code,
not
doing
what
they're
supposed
to
do,
and
then
they
file
this
Nifty
little
piece
of
paper
in
2023
that
says
per
Mr
cotton.
This
is
an
su1
to
memorialize.
What
was
built
on
these
four
Lots
now
I've
seen
stuff
come
before
Council,
that
they've
had
to
do
su
once
that
something
was
built
20
30
years
ago,
and
we
have
to
bring
it
up
to
code.
But
why
are
we
building
things
that
are
not
the
code
and
they
still
it's
it's.
W
My
understanding,
I
mean
I
drove
by
there
today,
I
drive
back
here
quite
often,
and
the
the
memorandums
from
staff
say
that
that
the
Roberts
Avenue
Place
wasn't
built
to
code
and
it
wasn't
built
to
the
plan
the
transportation
side
planned.
There
were
no
sidewalks
in
front
of
any
of
these
four
duplexes,
and
so
this
is
not.
W
The
number
67
is
not
an
isolated
incident,
so
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
understand
that
we
have
some
other
issues
with
people
in
the
within
the
city
who
are
taking
the
rules
and
doing
what
they
want
with
them
and
throw
them
in
the
garbage
can
because
honestly,
look
up
the
look
up.
The
developer
on
this
and
you'll
see
that
it's
a
cons,
it's
somebody
who
knows
better.
It
is
somebody
who
knows
better.
These
are
not
folks
who
are
brand
new.
This
is
the
first
time
they've
done
it.
W
Second
I
want
to
talk
about
the
ethics
Commission,
because
it's
on
the
agenda
today,
why
bother
seriously
I've
filed
ethics
complaints?
They
came
back
with
nothing.
I
had
to
go
to
HR
is
in
charge
of
they
are
the
Liaisons
for
the
HR
for
the
ethics
commission,
I
had
to
go
to
them
several
times
several
several
several
times
it
wasn't
until
I
showed
up
on
somebody's
doorstep
on
the
ethics
commission,
that
I
got
nasty
grams
from
the
HR
department
and
they
had
a
meeting.
It
was
the
most
amazing
thing
now.
W
If
the
person
who
I
came
to
their
house
was
totally
offended
by
me
showing
up
there,
she
wouldn't
have
invited
me
in
and
made
me
iced
tea
and
talked
to
me
for
45
minutes,
but
the
HR
department
is
sending
me
certified
letters
telling
me
I
can't
go
to
somebody's
house
last
time.
I
checked
this
is
America.
I
can
go
where
I
want
the
ethics
commission
either
used
it
properly
or
get
rid
of
it.
It's.

has

and

Heritage
sites,
multiple
property
listing
based
on
their
media.
The
criteria
found
in
section
27-257.
AM
AM
D
You
thank
you
for
this
wonderful
presentation
and
I
think
it's
shameful.
What
was
done
to
that
entire
neighborhood
I.
Don't
blame
anybody
here,
because
we
weren't
here,
because
this
is
already
I,
think
the
last
business
closed
in
1974.
and
if
you
can
imagine
urban
renewal
was
a
very
aggressive
program.
If
you
look
at
it
historically,
especially
in
in
the
city
of
Tampa,
it
was
more
aggressive
than
most
and
Ybor.
D
City
nearby
was
affected
tremendously
by
by
urban
renewal,
but
they
didn't
level
and
demolish
7th
Avenue
Central
Avenue
is
gone
with
the
exception
of
a
few
buildings
that
you
mentioned
a
few
churches
and
these
houses
I
know
some
people
because
I've
talked
to
so
many
people.
I
had
a
conversation.
A
couple
weeks
ago,
I
I
spoke
till
I,
couldn't
talk
anymore
about
the
history,
and
this
is
someone
who
was
there
and
why
it
happened.
Why
and
another
person
said
well.
The
interstate
was
coming
through.
The
interstate
is
north.
D
A
D
D
I
spoke
to
one
gentleman
years
ago,
who
remembers
the
neighborhood
and
the
condition
of
the
houses
and
everything,
and
he
told
me
his
story,
but
at
least
we
have
something
physical,
that
we
can
show
people
that
we
can
say:
hey,
there's
a
historic
marker
telling
the
story,
but
these
houses
are
protected
because
it's
the
very
last
or
or
some
of
the
last,
because
he
said
there
are
a
few
houses
north
of
Scott
Street.
That
remains
so
I'm
glad
that
this
is
being
brought
before
us.
I
Wish,
I,
Was
Here
50
years
ago.
D
I
wasn't
born
50
years
ago,
and
and
we
could
have
thought
to
protect
more
of
these
structures
but
at
least
we're
doing
what
we
can
now
and
soon
we'll
have
the
discussion
on
the
Jackson
house,
where
there's
some
some
positive
news
there.
So
again.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
very
much
yes,
ma'am.
Thank.
C
C
The
emotional
piece
for
me
is
that
there
are
some
amazing
spaces
in
Tampa
where
black
people
lived
that
have
been
clearly
gentrified,
but
it
happened
because
of
racism,
city,
government,
racism
and
national
government.
Racism
wiped
out
a
significant
part
of
our
community
and
I,
actually,
probably
Drive
in
the
scrubs,
almost
every
single
day
to
pay
homage
to
the
community.
C
But
the
missing
piece
is
that
racism
on
a
national
level
and
a
local
level,
and
if
you
go
back
and
read
the
papers
there,
there
were
mayor
a
mayor
who
called
this
area
deplorable,
and
so,
but
it
was
a
community
that
was
thriving
in
the
city
of
Tampa
Senator
athenia
Joyner.
Her
father
was
the
last
business
to
hold
out
in
1974
closing
the
joiners
cotton
cotton
club,
and
so
I
can
just
only
imagine,
I've
I
envisioned
every
time
that
I
go
on
7th
Avenue
I
get
angry
that
Central
Avenue
is
no
longer
here.
C
J
Yeah
I
just
want
to
say
some
folks
have
heard
me
say
this
before,
but
if
you
go
to,
if
you
go
to
Williamsburg,
only
10
percent
of
Williamsburg
is
original.
The
rest
of
it
was
rebuilt
based
on
the
drawings
and
picture
drawings
that
they
had
were
Old
Town
Warsaw
was
rebuilt
after
World
War
II,
based
on
paintings
from
the
1500s
or
1700s
I,
can't
remember,
which,
anyway,
we
have
pictures
of
what
Central
Avenue
looked
like.
J
I
was
hoping
that
the
Jackson
house
renovation
10
years
ago
would
be
the
start
of
trying
to
rebuild
some
of
the
buildings
that
were
on
Central,
Avenue
and
and
unfortunately,
that's
taken
10
years.
But
once
that's
done,
I
think
we
have
to
and
Earnest
look
at,
not
just
protecting
the
older
buildings
but
rebuilding
some
of
them
that
were
torn
down
because
it's
the
building
on
what
my
colleagues
said.
J
O
Thank
you
very
much
and
just
briefly
councilman
Henderson.
Thank
you
for
those
words:
I
I'm
I'm,
a
big
fan
of
the
Equal
justice
initiative,
Brian
Stevenson
in
Montgomery
Alabama,
and
they
always
say
that
to
overcome
inequality,
we
have
to
confront
her
history
and
it's
so
important
for
people
to
call
it
as
it
is
and
as
it
was
I
mean
we
have
a
lot
of
people.
I
hear
a
lot
of
jokes
where
people
say:
oh
people
are
saying
the
interstate's
racist.
O
Well,
the
construction
of
it
was
based
on,
like
you
said,
racism
and
and
a
lot
of
people
say
that
as
a
joke,
the
interstate
racist.
No
it
the
way
it
was
constructed.
It
was
based
upon
racism,
racial
hatred,
bias,
Prejudice
Etc,
so
I.
Just
thank
you
for
those
words.
I
know
that
I
remember
once
trying
to
find
the
house
where
Robert
Saunders,
the
great
NAACP
leader
in
in
Florida
and
from
Tampa,
live
Robert
City,
and
it's
been
paved
over
no
longer
here
yeah.
So
so
it's
yeah.
O
D
You
see
and
it
was
like
a
a
bustling
Seventh
Avenue
Ybor
City,
because
I've
looked
where
is
there
more
of
it?
Were
there
it's
very
limited
but
and
I'll
stop
with
this
and
I'll
go
to
public
comment.
Yesterday,
I
was
driving
down
22nd
Street,
just
south
of
Martin
Luther
King,
and
there
are
so
many
buildings.
Some
are
owned
by
the
CRA,
so
many
buildings-
and
you
can
see
you
know
commercial
and
I'm
thinking
to
myself.
D
If
we
can't
rebuild
Central
Avenue,
we
can
create
a
thriving
black
business
district
and
that
being
a
main
Corridor
going
through
Belmont
Heights.
The
buildings.
Are
there,
it's
just.
You
know
public-private
Partnerships
CRA,
you
know,
I
was
with
Mr
McRae.
The
CRA
has
this
and
there's
so
much
opportunity
and
I
see
how
Armature
Works
was
revitalized.
How
Ybor
city
has
come
back?
How
we're
building
Water
Street
there's
opportunity
to
do
that
there
and
if
we
can't
rebuild
Central
Avenue
we
can.
D
We
can
create
a
hub
right
there,
so
just
throwing
that
out
into
the
universe,
since
we
have
to
say
it
publicly.
But
yes,
sir
yeah.
M
I
think
you
you
hit
on
it
and
yeah
I'm
about
preserving
our
past
as
well,
but
you
know
we
balance
these
needs
as
the
city
of
Tampa
grows.
But
you
know
when
we
have
these
opportunities.
I
think
we
have
to
seize
them
going
on
what
you
just
said
is
kind
of
hearkening
back
to
what
I've
heard
we've
prior
to
me,
serving
on
Council
councilman
Carlson
has
said
over
the
years
about
creating
these
thriving
small,
commercial,
neighborhood,
commercial
districts
and
so
I
think
that's
the
key
in
some
of
our
gentrification
issues.
M
If
we
can
create
these
small
neighborhood
commercial
districts,
you
know
regenerate
them
and
and
revive
them
throughout
our
community
within
our
within
our
our
diverse
Community
I.
Think
that
will
go
a
long
way
at
either
recreating
as
councilman
Carlson
said
of
going
back
to
some
of
the
original
plans.
Like
we've
got
some,
you
know
great
areas
in
West
Tampa
we
can
create
areas
in
East,
Tampa
and
others.
I
think.
That's
that
that's
really
something
that
this
Council
on
this
city
government
needs
to
be
looking
at
for
future
growth
and
development.
Thank.
D
AF
AF
My
address
right
now
is
4513
Devonshire
Road
in
Tampa
I'm,
currently
working
on
a
case
study
involving
today's
topic
regarding
the
designation
of
Johnson
houses
as
a
historical
landmark
which
are
located
at
1248,
East,
Scott,
Street
and
1250
East
Scott
Street,
Tampa
I
would
like
to
take
a
moment
and
thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
speak
on
the
subject.
Although
I'm
not
a
resident
of
the
historical
Central
Avenue
area,
as
a
native
and
current
resident
of
Tampa
I
believe
we
should
preserve
the
Johnson
houses
in
my
research.
AF
I
found
that
the
city
of
Tampa
historic
preservation,
commission
recommended
to
the
city
of
Tampa
Council
that
the
Johnson
houses
be
designated
as
historical
landmarks,
representing
the
area
known
as
the
scrubs.
It
is
a
vital
historic
historical
importance
to
the
African-American
community
and
to
the
city
of
Tampa,
as
well
as
one
of
the
goals
of
the
city
of
Tampa's.
Comprehensive
plan
is
retain
valued
reminders
of
our
past,
while
developing
valued
historic
resources
for
future
Generations
end
quote
the
Johnson
houses
fit
perfectly
in
this
description.
AF
These
are
the
last
remaining
buildings
that
were
not
raised
due
to
gentrification
and
racism,
primarily
between
the
50s
and
70s,
with
the
construction
of
I-4
and
I-275
contributed
to
this
as
well,
whether
they
are
preserved
and
used
for
residential
purposes
or
designated
for
use
as
a
museum.
It
would
be
of
great
historical
benefit
to
the
city
of
Tampa.
To
keep
such
history
alive
is
to
remember
the
suffering
and
the
plight
of
a
community
as
well
as
their
accomplishments.
AF
Tampa
has
a
rich
history
as
well
as
a
tragic
one,
remembering
not
only
the
good
but
the
bad
helps
one,
not
repeat
the
same
errors
and
atrocities
that
cities
all
over
the
US
have
been
a
part
of
since
the
Johnson's
house.
Excuse
me,
since
the
Johnson
houses
meet
the
criteria,
I
don't
see
any
issues
designating
these
homes
as
historical
landmarks.
AF
Only
that
I
hope
that
they're
restored
in
a
manner
that
preserves
a
Heritage
of
the
African-American
community
in
the
area
I'm
proud
to
call
each
and
every
neighborhood
in
the
city
of
Tampa,
my
home
as
such.
The
Johnson
homes
are
part
of
me
and
my
City's
Heritage.
All
it
would
ask,
is
to
please
remember
to
listen
to
the
community
when
making
your
decisions.
I
would
like
to
thank
Elaine
Lund,
which
I
spoke
to
yesterday.
She
gave
me
some
good
points
and
I
answered
all
my
questions
and
I.
D
Thank
you
very
much.
Anybody
else
here
to
speak
for
public
comment
before
I
close
thank
you,
Mr
Fernandez,
Miss,
Lund,
I,
think
I
see
Miss
Farrell
in
the
back.
You
know
historic
preservation,
Champions
and-
and
thank
you
for
all
that
you
do.
This
is
very
significant
and
important.
May
I
have
a
motion
to
close
some
motion.
Council
member
from

Thank
you
yes,
with
great
joy.
Thank
you.

G
G
D
D
All
right
before
I
announce
the
closed
session.
At
this
time
we
have
item
67,
Miss
Wells.
If
you
could
just
explain
that
before
we
move
to
receiving
fall,
foreign.
B
Good
morning,
Kate
weltz
for
the
record
and
I
apologize
for
stepping
out
earlier
I
didn't
realize
you
were
going
to
take
that
item
out
of
order,
as
I
explained
in
the
memorandum
filed
insire.
Given
that
a
an
application
for
a
design
exception,
one
has
been
filed
with
the
city
and
the
interest
that
you've
already
heard
through
public
comment.
I
think,
regardless
of
staff's
decision
on
that
application,
I
would
anticipate
that
a
petition
for
review
would
be
filed
with
this
city
council.
H
D
Favor
all
right
at
this
time,
Mr

I'm,
going
to
announce
the
closed

gonna
say

at
this
time.
In
accordance
with
Florida
statute,
section

we
