stranger
to
City.
Hall
has
been
working
with
the
city
for
decades
and
brings
a
vast
amount
of
knowledge
and
experience.
If
you

a
question,
usually
he
has
the

for
the
last
30
years
or
so
we
welcome
today.
If
you
could
please
rise
for
the
invocation
and
please
remain
standing
for
the
pledge.
B
Morning,
council
piercing
the
veil
through
prayer.
There
are
a
few
shadows
between
light
and
dark.
Angry
sees
angry
skies,
good
and
evil
right
and
wrong.
Hunger,
hate
and
loss
forgiveness
knows
no
bounds
with
prayer
prayer
pieces,
pierces
the
veil
of
selfishness
and
destroys
the
root
of
evil.
The
good
Lord
has
given
us
the
ability
to
choose.
Let
prayer
guide
us
in
making
wise
decisions
and
fulfilling
our
rightful
destiny.
B
We've
been
given
all
the
gifts
in
the
wisdom
through
prayer
to
make
wise
choices,
do
not
let
the
evil
one
trick
us
into
making
bad
or
selfish
decisions
or
to
turn
away
from
the
thoughtful
prayer
of
the
Lord
pierce.
The
veil.
The
past
is
the
future.
The
present
is
today
be
the
person
that
the
Lord
intended
you
to
be
give.
C
The
gifts
of
your
time,
patience,
knowledge
and
understanding
that
you
can,
when
you
can
remember
that,
whatever
you
have
that
was
given
to
you
through
the
Lord
as
a
gift
to
you.
Those
gifts
are
not
guaranteed
whether
it's
power,
wealth,
public
position
or
influence
use
those
gifts
wisely,
they
can
be
easily
lost,
the
Lord
remembers
each
and
every
one
of
you,
the
humble
the
benevolent
the
arrogant.
B
C
B
D
E
D
Yes,
yes,
sir,
ok
thank
you
yeah
and
yeah,
and
just
to
let
the
public
know
before
we
begin
that
we
have
a
I
guess
if
you
will
a
new
procedural
rule
that
at
10
a.m.
more
or
less
1005
1010.
We
take
staff
reports
at
that
time,
just
to
make
sure
that
all
of
the
staff
people
who
are
here
don't
have
to
wait
longer
than
they
necessarily
have
to
so
that
may
conflict
some
with
public
comment.
But
public
comment.
If
it
is
interrupted,
then
we'll
continue
then,
after
this
reports,
so
we'll
go
from
there.
D
F
G
Good
morning,
I
have
no
idea
what
I'm
supposed
to
do
very
new
at
this
type
of
presentation,
but
I'm
looking
to
become
more
involved.
I've
been
in
the
tampa
resident
for
13
years,
homeowner
association,
president
for
10
of
those
and
a
hundred
house
community
employee
of
the
university
of
south
florida
for
all
13
of
those
years
go
bulls,
looking
for
a
way
to
contribute
and
saw
this
opportunity
after
participating
in
the
mayor's
neighborhood
university,
and
here
I
am
2
minutes
and
30
seconds
to
spare.
Thank
you
thank.
D
F
G
Leadership
long-range
vision,
contributing
to
a
place
that
is
better
for
us
to
live,
work,
move
and
learn.
I
see
this
Commission
is
very
important
in
bringing
parties
together.
My
career
has
been
built
on
bringing
multiple
entities
together
and
having
them
combine
for
a
common
purpose.
This
is
a
commission
that
I'm
very
interested
in
very
hopeful
to
serve
on.
G
I
G
Good
morning,
councilman
as
I
thought
about
how
it
present
to
you
today,
I
came
across
the
mission
statement
for
the
Planning
Commission.
That
reads
as
follows:
the
Planning
Commission
promotes
chordates
collaborates
with
and
facilitates
the
involvement
of
all
people
in
the
long
range
planning
and
vision
of
our
community
and
improve
economic
development,
quality
of
life
and
provide
value-added
services.
G
Their
key
words
are
informed,
involve,
invest,
innovate
and
impact,
so
I
thought
about
where
I
fit
in
these
inform
I
spent
time
informing
myself
through
a
menu
which
is
the
mayor's
neighborhood
university
FBI
citizens
Academy
the
Tampa
Police
citizens
Academy,
the
Hillsborough
County
backstage
pass
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
other
community
forums
as
a
commercial
real
estate
agent
I
have
helped
clients
to
develop
their
businesses
as
a
residential
agent.
I've
helped
my
clients
make
their
community
their
home
through.
G
These
have
learned
the
intricacies
of
our
community
not
just
to
inform
myself
but
also
inform
my
community,
so
they
can
be
aware
of.
What's
going
on,
my
friends
and
clients
reach
out
to
me
for
information
and
I,
provide
this
directly
and
through
my
business
page
involved.
I
believe
it
is
our
civic
duty
to
be
involved
in
our
community
I
love
where
we
live
and
I
believe
that
my
involvement
will
make
it
a
better
place.
G
My
involvement
and
profit
non
profits
through
board
can,
through
boards
committees
and
as
a
volunteer
I
believe,
has
helped
them
be
more
inclusive.
Invest
I've
invested
my
time
in
getting
to
know
our
city
and
county
through
direct
involvement,
but
my
professional
career
has
also
done
so.
My
professional
life
has
been
that
of
me
helping
someone
purchase
a
home
or
purchase
an
asset.
G
This
process
I
spend
time
peeling
back
the
onion
to
understand
the
financial
ramifications,
but
also
the
physical
ones,
to
help
my
clients
make
the
best
choice.
I
hope
to
take
this
skill
of
investigation
to
aid
the
Planning
Commission
to
make
the
best
choices
for
the
future.
Innovate
I
spend
my
free
time
always
learning
about
new
innovations.
I
recently
attended
a
session
for
macGruber,
which
is
a
new
innovative
way
to
take
plastic
waste
and
to
use
it
in
our
roads.
G
I
also
have
visited
facilities
for
new
forms
of
construction,
such
as
sundog
structures
and
enable
nook
to
learn
how
they
can
be
used
in
our
community.
Innovation
isn't
just
a
cool
thing,
but
it,
but
it
also
can
be
used
to
help
less
fortunate
and
a
combination
of
it
will
impact
our
community
better
impact.
G
My
parents
came
to
this
country
with
hopes
of
a
better
future,
and
they
realize
that
in
my
own
way
and
through
my
involvement
in
my
own
way
and
through
my
involvement,
I
hope
to
impact
our
community
by
providing
my
unique
perspective,
unbiased
opinion
and
diligence
to
serve
the
Planning
Commission.
Thank
you
very
much.
J
B
B
K
B
K
K
B
M
F
D
Yes,
ma'am,
okay.
Next,
we
will
move
to
our
agenda
item
number
three
for
a
commendation
for
miss
baguette,
I
believe
and
by
the
way,
also
wanted
to
I.
Don't
have
a
memo
here
in
front
of
me,
but
I
know
there
is
a
memo
from
the
office
of
councilman
Orlando
Goods,
who
was
unable
to
make
it
to
Tampa
City
Council
today
because
of
another
public
service
related
endeavor.
So
I
just
wanted
to
just
note
that,
for
the
record
on
behalf
of
our
colleague.
A
I'm
a
past
neighborhood
president
for
my
association,
and
you
know,
I've
known
you
for
a
while
now
we've
become
very
good
friends
and
you
work
tirelessly
for
people
in
the
community
and
you're
very
well,
respected
and
very
well
loved
for
all
the
work
that
you
do,
because
it
really
comes
from
the
heart
and
you
have
the
heart
of
a
public
servant.
So
here
you
go.
Congratulations!
Yeah,.
D
H
D
And
I
want
to
anyone
else.
I
just
wanted
echo
what
councilman
dink
fell
during
councilman,
it's
calculus
ed.
Thank
you
for
your
work.
You
know
I
know.
As
elected
officials,
we
always
look
to
leaders
in
the
community
to
help
be
partners
in
improving
the
community
and
you're,
certainly
one
of
those
people.
So
thank
you
for
your
work.
Thank.
E
D
Okay,
are
we
okay,
I
guess
we'll
go
on
word
to
item
number
for
councilman
Miranda.
I
Audible
Caracappa
city
council,
honorable
membership,
kappa
city
council
itself
might
indeed
a
pleasure
to
present
Bobby
Diaz
I'm
known
Bobby
for
a
long
time
and
I
noticed
today
was
smart
enough
not
to
sit
in
a
row
in
front
of
him
because
that's
another
guy
that
Coach
with
him
but
I'm,
not
gonna
mention
his
name
is
a
personal
joke.
You
know
what
Bobby
has
done.
It's
not
the
winds
that
count.
It's
not
the
way
it's
about
life.
He
taught
every
kid
that
he
had
all
the
girls
that
he
coached
for
28
years
as
a
coach.
I
What
life
is
about,
and
why
did
he
win?
So
many
wins
not
that
he
had
the
best
teams.
I,
don't
believe
not
that
he
had
the
best
players
but
that
the
players
threw
his
inspiration
became
known
as
when
they
fell.
They
got
up
and
started
all
over
again.
They
never
took
a
loss
as
a
loss.
It
took
his
an
experience
in
life
and
for
that
you
know
he
had
660
wins
and
only
172
losses.
I
Mathematically
I
think
that's
about
79%
wins
and
those
losses.
Molly
was
because
there
were
rain
outs,
I
guess,
I,
don't
know
when
you
have
that
I'm
looking
at
all
the
great
coaches
and
that
I'm
known
in
history
I've
never
seen.
Somebody
was
kind
of
win
so
and
what
you've
done
is
unbelievable.
Two
state
championships,
two
state
runner-ups
and
nine
in
the
state
finals.
I
No
major
league
coach
has
done
that
nine
regional
championships,
19
district
championships,
three
Western
Conference
titles
and
11
Western
Conference
titles
of
coach.
He
was
two
times
parade
at
the
league
coach
of
the
year
and
he
has
done
just
an
outstanding
job
everywhere.
He's
coach
and
it's
an
honor
for
me
to
say
that
I'm
known
Bobby
we
both
had
hair
and
and
he's
an
outstanding
individual.
He
doesn't
talk
much.
He
gives
a
lot
of
this
thing.
I
You
know
signals,
but
today's
your
speak
and
it's
my
pleasure
to
present
this
on
behalf
of
the
Tampa
City
Council,
not
for
the
wins,
but
for
what
you
taught
all
your
thousands
and
thousands
of
kids
that
you
taught
not
only
at
Chamberlain
and
today,
I
wore
my
yellow
and
blue
because
out
from
Jefferson
to
make
sure
that
we're
still
rivals.
But
friends
and
that's
the
life
is
all
about
so
I
present
you.
This
combination
on
behalf
of
Tampa
City
Council
for
an
outstanding
individual,
who
was
also
a
great
coach.
B
B
They
went
to
USF
Southern,
Miss,
FAU,
University
of
Hawaii
college
athletes,
College
F,
athletics
and
female
athletics
is
important
for
women
and
young
girls
for
a
couple
reasons.
First,
it
teaches
them
leaders,
leadership
skills
that
they
wouldn't
otherwise
learned,
teaches
them
how
to
compete,
teaches
them
self-confidence
and
it
teaches
them
that
personal
personal
girl
goals
are
subservient
to
team
goals
and
the
best
two
examples
I
can
give
you
of
female
athletes
who
are
outstanding.
B
O
Well,
I
appreciate
this
and
believing
that
deeply
appreciated
I.
It's
easy
to
stand
here
and
take
credit,
but
when
you
work,
I've,
retired
I'm,
72
years
old,
I
got
to
do,
I
was
blessed
to
do
what
I
love
to
do.
For
you
know
twenty
eight
years
of
Chamberlain
and
fifty
years
overall
I've
had
great
players.
I've
had
great
assistant
coaches
I've,
had
you
know,
administrators
that
have
supported
us
school
staff,
parents,
which
is
always
a
nightmare
for
most
coaches
I've,
had
tremendous
parents
and
my
wife
who's
put
up
with
this
for
all
this
time.
I
F
F
H
Chairman
I
think
this
item
six
on
the
agenda.
It's
my
honor
and
privilege
to
be
presenting
the
our
2019
community,
water-wise
Awards,
and
we
do
this
annually
in
conjunction
with
Tampa
Bay
water
and
Hillsborough
County
Extension
Service
and
before
I.
Go
on
too
long
I'll
introduce
our
very
own
Chuck
Weber
who's,
the
head
of
the
water
department,
and
he
will
tell
us
more.
B
Thank
You
councilman
good
morning,
Council
Chuck
water,
water
department
for
almost
20
years,
the
city
of
Tampa
and
our
neighboring
municipalities
have
recognized
attractive
and
inspiring
landscapes
with
the
community
water
wise
awards
program
year
by
year,
the
number
of
participants
has
grown.
This
year,
our
team
of
judges
visited
15
yards
in
the
Tampa
Hillsborough
area.
B
We
are
especially
impressed
by
the
number
of
gardeners
in
this
year's
competition,
incorporating
fruits,
vegetables
and
herbs
and
their
landscapes,
and,
to
tell
us
more,
we
have
with
us
someone
who
has
taught
thousands
of
people
how
to
install
a
rain
barrel,
build
a
compost,
pile
and
put
the
right
plant
in
the
right
place.
Mrs.
mrs.
Lynn
Barbour.
B
Well,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here.
Thank
you
for
having
me
I
would
like
to
say
that
the
community
water-wise
Awards
is
truly
one
of
the
most
wonderful
and
fun
things
I
ever
get
to
do
all
year
long,
so
not
that
I,
don't
like
drilling
rain
barrels
and
putting
in
this
Becket's.
But
this
is
really
wonderful,
because
I
can
see
all
the
creativity
in
so
many
residents
within
the
city
of
Tampa
and
unincorporated
Hillsborough
County.
B
So
the
thing
about
landscaping
is
this:
you
need
to
know
the
big
picture
of
what
you
want
to
do,
but
you
need
to
be
able
to
choke
it
into
smaller
parts
so
that
it's
doable
so
florida-friendly
landscaping
is
water
and
Environmental
Conservation
the
water,
wise
content
is
open
all
year
long.
It
ends
June
30th
every
year
and
so
far
we
have
one
entry
for
2020.
So
if
you
have
questions
feel
free
to
go
to
Tampa,
Bay
water-wise,
dot
org
or
give
me
a
call.
Thank
you.

in
favor
any
opposed,
and
let
me
just
say
to
any
folks
who
may
have
applied
for
any
of
these
positions
and
not
yet
not
gotten
him
that
there's
I'm
sure
many
other
positions
and
I'd
encourage
everybody
to
be
involved
in
one
or
more
City
boards.
I
know
that
many
of
us
were
involved
in
city
boards.
I
was
with
the
civil
service
Review
Board,
which
was
a
lot
of
fun
most
of
the
time
when
I
was
there
and
I
would
encourage
everyone
to
be
involved.
Okay.
D
D
I'll
give
comments
afterwards,
but
I
just
wanted
to
preface
this
by
saying
that
we're
honored
to
have
everybody
here
for
what
is
really
an
exciting
endeavor
that
is
a
relevancy
to
all
of
the
city
of
Tampa
and
I,
suggest
all
of
our
regions
for
the
USF
area,
but
I'll
leave
it
to
our
friend
mr.
sharp
go
ahead,
sir.
Mr.
J
Chairman
City
Council
members,
it's
an
honor
to
be
here.
Yesterday
morning
we
had
an
opportunity
to
make
this
presentation
to
the
Hillsborough
County
Board
of
County
Commission,
and
we
received
a
7:00
o
vote
of
support
and
we're
here
today
with
our
team,
a
United
team,
and
we
brought
representatives
from
Hillsborough
County
mr.
marrow,
the
County
administrators
here
with
Lucia
Garces.
J
We
have
our
anchors
here
as
well,
we'll
introduce
briefly
but
I
also
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
the
Chairman
for
attending
our
city,
County
our
County
Commission
meeting
yesterday,
as
well
as
councilman
Carlsen,
who
attended
as
well
we're
here,
because
we
want
to
form
a
united
front
to
do
something
dramatic
and
transformational
in
the
university
area.
First,
let
me
introduce
the
team.
Mike
merrill
county
administrator
has
been
instrumental
in
helping
to
bring
together
all
the
different
factions
and
groups.
We've
had
a
number
of
conversations.
J
We've
met
with
the
mayor,
who's
been
very
supportive,
miracast
her
and
her
team.
Mr.
williams,
Calvin
Williams
vice
president
for
administrative
services
for
USF,
is
here:
Jack
koloski,
chief
operating
officer
from
off
of
cancers.
Here
Jo
battle,
the
director
of
the
second
largest
VA
hospital
in
the
nation,
is
here:
Sarah
combs
CEO
of
the
University
Area
Community,
Development
Corporation
and
a
member
of
our
organization,
but
soon
we'll
be
asking
her
to
join
on
the
Executive
Board
of
the
tamp
innovation.
Partnership
is
here
and
then
mr.
Kemp
beau
Kemp
will
speak
briefly.
Mr.
J
Kemp
is
a
partner
with
fakeri
out
of
Chicago,
but
he
was
hired
by
our
organization
to
help
us
as
we
manage
the
opportunity
zone
and
create
an
opportunity
zone.
Work
fund
for
the
district
is
here
and
our
Chairman
Chris
Bowen
Chris
Bowen
is
with
rt
management
responsible
for
transforming
the
University
Mall
that
we
all
knew
growing
up.
Many
of
us
went
there
to
the
theater
and
the
shop,
but
it's
now
going
to
become
an
urban
research
village
within
walking
distance
of
the
University
of
South
Florida.
Mr.
bowen
will
address
you
briefly.
J
What
we're
creating
is
an
echo
system.
An
echo
system
means
that
you
take
the
institution's
as
well
as
the
people
who
live
in
the
community
and
you
bring
them
together,
which
we've
never
been
able
to
effectively
do
in
the
university
area.
You
have
a
number
of
jurisdictions,
Temple,
Terrace
and
I
would
like
to
say
as
well:
Sheri
Donohue
Kalyn
woman
from
temple
terraces
here
and
on
our
team,
but
with
Temple
Terrace,
the
city
of
Tampa
and
the
county.
You
have
the
overlapping
jurisdictions
as
well
as
the
Florida
Department
of
Transportation
and
their
responsibilities.
J
An
F
dot
has
been
working
with
us
along
with
Hart,
so
we
want
to
create
an
ecosystem
where
you
bring
it
all
together,
where
you
have
a
true
live-work-play
innovation.
District,
a
lot
of
things
are
happening.
A
lot
of
activity
is
taking
place
right
now
to
the
north.
You've
got
the
advent
health
development
they
put
two
hundred
million
dollars
into
their
ER
and
into
the
Women's
Center,
and
right
now,
they're,
building
a
six
story:
surgical
tower:
250
million
dollar
facility,
m2
Jen
in
2007,
the
county
supported
a
major
project.
J
One
of
the
first
projects
that
we
supported
up
in
the
university
area
was
in
the
city
of
Tampa
on
McKinley
was
a
forty
five
million
dollar
project
to
build
a
public-private
partnership
from
m2
Jen.
They
built
the
outpatient
facility
right
next
door,
which
opened
in
2017
and
now.
Moffitt
has
plans
right
across
the
street
on
McKinley
to
build
a
major
new
hospital.
J
Approximately
three
hundred
to
four
hundred
million
dollars
next
door
to
Moffitt
sits
Yingling
I
won't
go
into
that
project
because
you'll
be
hearing
that
one,
but
it's
a
major
project
and
it
occurred
as
a
result
of
all
the
activity
around
them
and
they
knew
that
while
they
brew
great
beer,
they
want
to
do
more
and
they
want
to
build
a
place
where
people
want
to
attend.
Thank
you,
sir.
We
have
next
to
that.
The
University
Mall
the
mall
has
100
acres
of
land.
J
They
recently
were
Riis
owned
by
the
county
into
a
new
designation
innovation
community
of
35.
It
gives
them
the
opportunity
to
go
from
1
million
square
feet
of
developable
land
to
7
million
square
feet,
so
the
University
Mall
is
a
key
player
in
this
village.
That's
being
that
it's
being
developed
usf
in
their
research
park,
they
have
now
plans
for
a
new
120
thousand
square
foot
lab
to
go
on
the
120
acres
that
sits
there.
So
we've
got
to
bring
all
this
together
into
a
coherent
innovation
district
and
that's.
J
Why
we're
here
we're
here
to
ask
you
for
your
support
in
working
with
Hillsboro
County
and
our
partners
at
Tampa
Novation
partnership,
Chris
Bowen
is
going
to
give
you
the
specific
ask,
but
our
outcome
is
nothing
less
than
and
I'm
taking
this
from
dr.
Steve
Corral
in
his
book
on
innovation,
we
want
dramatic
societal
improvements.
J
C
Thank
you
Mark
good
morning,
I'm
Chris
Bowen,
current
chairman
of
the
Tampa
innovation
partnership,
as
well
as
chief
development
strategist,
with
our
new
management
and
overseeing
the
University
Mall
property
redevelopment
and
reinvestment
project.
Over
the
past
60
years,
an
extraordinary
urban
innovation
community
has
been
organically
growing
and
developing
before
our
very
eyes.
Only
a
short
distance
from
here
in
Uptown,
incredible
things
are
occurring
up
there
all
the
time
the
local
resident
institutions
and
corporate
players
have
garnered
national
and
international
acclaim
and
have
made
some
very
amazing
breakthroughs
in
their
respective
fields.
C
Yet
our
local,
commercial
and
residential
neighborhoods
do
not
reflect
those
incredible
accomplishments
and
do
not
yet
benefit
to
a
significant
degree
from
them.
It's
time
to
change
that
it's
time
to
take
strategic,
but
underutilized
assets
like
the
100-acre,
University,
Mall
property
and
Mary
its
redevelopment
potential,
with
our
community's
initiatives
on
a
much
much
grander
scale
through
building
a
world-class
innovation
district
that
everyone
will
be
everyon
will
know
about,
and
everyone
will
be
able
to
participate
in
it's
time.
C
It's
time
to
leverage
the
nationally
significant
players
in
our
district,
which
represent
the
heart
of
what
is
already
one
of
the
most
significant
significant
medical
and
Technology
clusters
in
the
state:
Florida
Rd,
management's,
multibillion-dollar,
7
million,
plus
square
foot,
innovation,
Community
Development
being
proposed
at
the
mall
site
and
other
investment
pattern.
After
that
project
in
the
uptown
district
will
start
to
build
pathways
down
at
the
street
and
neighborhood
level
that
flow
within
a
success
that
that
connect
our
residents
to
the
many
opportunities
that
naturally
flow
within
a
successful
and
healthy
innovation
ecosystem.
C
This
work
over
the
next
few
years
will
set
the
framework
for
a
real
class
innovation
community,
which
will
further
inform
and
influence
compatible,
thoughtful
and
beneficial
development,
all
along
Fowler
Avenue
and
throughout
the
related
commercial
and
residential
neighborhoods,
within
our
district,
from
Fletcher
to
Bush
and
275
to
I-75
and
far
far
beyond
those
boundaries.
The
innovation
partnership
has
secured
the
national
or
secured
the
expertise
of
favori
Baker,
Daniels
Consulting
and
their
national
practice
and
its
senior
director
beau
Kemp
to
assist
us
in
developing
a
multi-faceted
opportunity
zone
program.
C
O
Good
morning
counseling,
my
name
is
Bill
Kemp
I'm
with
a
company
in
theory,
Baker
and
Daniels.
The
focus
of
my
efforts
years,
around
Opportunity
Zones
I've
spent
the
last
20
years,
working
on
large
scale,
projects
that
combine
public
interest
and
private
capital
to
actually
execute
them
around
the
country
and
for
the
last
two
years,
I've
been
intimately
involved
with
the
opportunity
zone
program,
as
I
formerly
was
the
deputy
mayor,
a
business
administrator
for
the
City
of
Newark,
with
Cory
Booker
before
he
became
Senator
and
was
a
co-sponsor
of
the
opportunity
zone
program.
O
I'm
really
excited
about
what
I
see
is
the
potential
here.
In
many
instances,
the
first
difficult
thing
to
actually
achieve
is
to
find
the
right
private
sponsor.
That's
already
engaged
in
helping
you
transform
an
area
like
this,
but
in
this
case
we've
got
one
in
the
form
of
Rd
Management.
The
goal
of
what
we
were
hoping
to
achieve
through
our
process
is
to
do
two
really
important
things.
The
first
is
to
use
University
Mall,
the
Uptown
area
and
our
innovation
district
as
a
way
to
attract
private
capital
to
come
and
help
to
grow
the
area.
O
But
the
second
and
equally
important
is
to
do
that
in
a
way
that
actually
supports
the
local
residents
who
live
there
and
discourages
displacement
not
only
of
the
residents
but
also
of
the
businesses
that
are
there,
and
so
part
of
our
effort
is
to
be
very
thoughtful
and
strategic
about
how
we
make
sure
that
the
efforts
to
grow
also
accommodate
the
people
who
are
already
there
in
a
way
that
is
positive
and
inclusive.
So
with
that
I
know,
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
time.
P
Good
morning
my
name
is
Sarah
combs
I'm,
the
CEO
at
the
University
Area,
CDC
and
I,
just
have
to
say
that
I'm
beyond
excited
to
be
standing
in
front
of
you
today
to
talk
about
this
redevelopment,
I'm,
specifically
talking
about
being
a
partner
in
this
initiative,
really
representing
the
voice
of
the
commune
for
over
20
years.
The
university
area
CDC
has
champion
positive
change
in
the
economic,
educational
and
social
levels
of
the
community,
through
youth
programs,
adult
education,
affordable
housing,
workforce
development,
community
engagement
and
empowerment
as
well
and
I.
P
Think
today
we
have
a
wonderful
opportunity
to
bring
this
community
forward
as
an
intentional
part
of
the
redevelopment
plan
and
by
including
the
the
residents
of
this
community
as
part
of
that
and
seeing
them
as
a
strength
opposed
to
a
weakness.
We
can
really
create
transformative
change.
We
strongly
believe
that
we
can
show
and
create
a
plan,
a
redevelopment
plan
ensuring
that
the
residents
really
get
to
benefit
without
displacement
and
I
know
that
that's
something
that's
really
important
to
you
all,
as
well
as
the
members
that
are
here
today
as
well.
P
It's
important
for
us,
because
we
made
a
promise
to
residents
of
the
university
area
community,
a
promise
to
be
a
beacon
of
hope
for
them
a
safe
haven
for
those
who
needed
a
voice,
and
you
know,
as
fearless
champions
of
our
residents
in
the
university
area,
it's
important
for
us
to
continue
to
empower
them
with
the
essential
tools
needed
to
attain
better
jobs,
better
health
and,
most
importantly,
better
futures
for
the
children.
Today,
we're
talking
about
more
than
making
positive
change
in
our
community.
P
We're
talking
about
a
plan
creating
the
plan,
a
redevelopment
plan
to
change
the
lives
of
generations
to
come
and
I
think
that's
something
that
we
can
all
really
get
behind
and
support.
That
is
why
I'm
here
today,
and
that
is
why
I
urge
you
to
support
these
efforts
as
we
come
together
as
partners,
true
partners,
to
create
an
inclusive
community
that
has
no
boundaries
and
one
that
we
can
all
be
proud
of
so
I.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time.
C
Thank
You
Bo
and
thank
you
Sarah,
so
a
quick
overview
of
our
game
plan
so
Jeff.
Some
objectives
that
we
need
to
address
through
the
next
six
to
12
months
include
standing
up
a
working
group
committee
of
Tampa
IP
anchors,
the
county
city
of
Tampa,
you
a
CDC
heart,
F,
dot
and
and
and
probably
some
others
to
craft
a
set
of
guiding
principles.
C
Quantifying
some
core
measureable
outcomes,
making
sure
we
have
identified,
engage
all
the
key
stakeholders
and
reach
memorandums
of
understanding
built
around
the
core
values
and
guiding
principles.
Establishing
an
equity
for
govern
or
an
entity
for
governance,
establish
a
scope
of
work
and
timelines
and
formulating
a
district
development
plan
quick
again
overview
on
the
the
proposed
development
plan
components.
C
Some
of
the
aspects
of
the
development
plan
include
an
agreement
between
the
county
and
city
on
the
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
process
for
the
district
setting
goals
for
economic
outcomes,
addressing
zoning
and
land
use
issues,
transfer
of
development
rights,
adopt
an
opportunity
zone,
work
plan,
adopt
a
community
engagement
plan,
stressing
social
impact
targets,
some
key
outcomes,
urban
landscape,
including
lighting
and
sidewalks,
and
bike
paths,
parks
and
connectivity.
C
Vague
and
not
innovation,
communities,
connectivity
and
and
getting
proximity
to
all
the
good
stuff
and
all
the
people
that
are
involved,
defining
the
boundaries
of
the
districts
initiatives
and
crafting
a
phased
approach
for
tax
increment
financing
that
will
present
to
the
be
OCC
and
the
City
Council
for
adoption
by
November,
20
20,
regular
reports,
the
be
OCC
and
City
Council
throughout
now,
I'd
like
to
invite
some
of
my
colleagues
from
the
Executive
Board
of
the
Tampa
innovation
partnership
and
who
will
briefly
explain
how
this
matters
to
institutions.
Yesterday,
as
Mark
mentioned,
we
had
dr.
C
Steven
Corral
president
University
of
South
Florida.
He
is
traveling
today,
so
he
won't
be
able
to
attend
this
meeting.
But
he
has
some
representatives
here
with
him.
First
I'm
going
to
have
Jack
mr.
Jack
koloski,
chief
operating
officer
of
the
Moffitt
Cancer
Center
and
Research
Institute
Jack
will
be
followed
by
the
director
of
the
James,
a
Haley
Veteran's,
Hospital,
Jo
battle
and
then
and
then
mr.
mr.
Calvin
Williams.
C
D
G
But
we
also
want
to
to
speak
on
behalf
of
the
60,000
different
patients
that
come
to
us
into
our
area.
These
improvements,
the
things
that
we're
talking
about
in
this
area,
are
vitally
needed
to
help
support
them
and
their
fight
against
cancer.
So
thank
you
all
for
your
listening
to
this
and
I
think
we'll
go
on
from
there.
B
B
The
VA
there
at
Haley,
we
represent
an
economic
impact
of
over
a
billion
dollars
a
year
with
salaries
and
other
monies
that
we
spend
there.
We
have
around
6,000
employees
and
we
take
care
of
over
a
hundred
thousand
veterans
and
active-duty
service
members
a
year,
and
we
we
believe
this
innovation
district
is
vital
to
our
continued
success
and.
E
O
Morning,
I'm
Calvin
Williams
vice
president
Minister
services
at
the
University
of
Florida
I
guess
what
I
will
do
is
give
you
a
real
quick
sight
picture.
I'm
an
alum
I
graduated
from
USF.
When
I
was
there
go
bulls.
I
will
tell
you
that
the
mall
was
that
was
was
was
vibrant
and
then,
and
it
was
a
place
for
students
to
go.
Students
didn't
have
to
have
to
be
concerned
about
the
crime
of
those
things
that
came
with
it.
O
I
came
back
to
USF
to
give
back
and
I
will
tell
you
I
could
not
find
USF
because
of
the
things
that
had
changed
in
that
environment.
So
the
key
word
here
is
redevelopment.
I
graduated
as
an
engineer,
I
built
all
over
the
world,
and
one
thing
that
I
do
subscribe
to
is
that
if
you
don't
redevelop,
it
will
continue
to
go
down.
I.
Ask
you
to
really
take
a
hard
look
at
this
to
make
sure
that
we
do
that.
The
whole
sight
picture
here
is
work
is
to
live,
work
and
learn.
B
Danny
yeah:
this
is
a
opportunity.
That's
been
long
and
coming
when
I
joined
the
county
a
number
of
years
ago,
mark
sharp
was
County
Commissioner
and
we
we
were
very
optimistic
about
the
area.
It's
taken
a
long
time
to
get
to
this
point,
but
I
think
this
is
an
opportunity
to
transform
a
community.
It's
not
a
real
estate
transaction.
This
is
to
lift
up
the
community.
The
Board
of
County
Commissioners
yesterday
did
vote
unanimously
to
support
the
concept
of
lost
value.
B
C
Thank
You
mr.
Merrill,
quick
wrap-up
on
the
request
today
in
order
to
execute
the
game
plan
described,
you
know
in
this
presentation
and
and
take
full
advantage
of
the
opportunities
on
program.
We
are
asking
you
today
for
three
things:
one
conceptual
support
of
the
approach:
we've
just
described
to
input
on
the
core
values
for
the
Uptown
innovation,
district
and
three
direction:
to
staff,
to
draft
to
work
with
us
to
draft
a
Memorandum
of
Understanding
for
collaborating
with
the
key
stakeholders.
C
D
You,
sir
and
I,
know
Councilman
Carlson,
I'm
sure
that
people
want
to
speak
I
just
want
to
say
in
councilman
Miranda.
Just
very
briefly,
on
my
end,
I
have
the
pleasure
of
representing
this
area.
This
is
something
that
I'm,
a
big
big
supporter
of
I,
think
that
it's
something
where
y'all
shouldn't
be
coming
to
us
asking
for
help.
We
should
be
coming
to
you
and
to
all
of
the
stakeholders
asking
you.
D
What
can
we
do
for
this
area,
because
this
area
has
so
much
vast
potential
that
it's
and
it's
gone
to
waste
for
so
many
years?
But
this
is
a
very
special
time
because
we
have
leadership
in
the
city
of
Tampa.
We
have
leadership
in
Hillsborough
County
that
is
united
in
our
sentiments
of
wanting
to
support
this
endeavor
and
go
and
go
forward.
I
would
ask
my
colleagues
to
support
this
request.
It
certainly
means
a
lot
to
all
of
our
city.
D
Just
a
couple
of
things
briefly,
something
I
said
yesterday
at
the
County
Commission,
which
is
there,
was
a
lot
of
talk
here
and
I'm
glad
on
the
concept
of
displacement
and
something
I
said
yesterday.
I'll
repeat
briefly
today,
which
is
to
me:
there's
a
big
difference
between
redevelopment
and
reinvestment
redevelopment
at
its
worse,
takes
underserved
communities
and
takes
people
who
live
in
those
underserved
communities
who
have
been
victims
all
too
often
of
neglect
and
drives
them
out,
drives
them
out
for
a
new
reality.
D
R
You
it's
her
and
I.
As
you
said,
I
was
there
yesterday
I'm
very
supportive
of
this.
Just
you,
you
asked
for
input
on
core
values
and
guiding
principles
and
I've
spent
a
lot
of
time
talking
to
mark
and
also
Beau,
and
they
look
forward
to
other
conversations
with
you
all,
but
just
four
quick
points.
Number
one
poverty
by
far
is
the
most
important
issue
that
we
have
in
our
community.
R
Tampa
ranks
near
the
bottom.
Luckily
we
have
Miami
in
the
state,
that's
worse
than
us
in
poverty,
but
we
need
to.
We
need
to
not
be
happy
just
being
above
Miami.
We
need
to
be.
We
need
to
move
the
poverty
number
and
and
what
we
the
way
we
do,
that
is
by
creating
jobs
and
promoting
entrepreneurship
and
not
by
taxpayer.
Subsidized
gentrification,
as
some
other
people
have
alluded
to.
The
last
administration
here,
kicked
out.
1,200
poor
families
from
the
West
Bank
of
the
Tampa
and
a
lot
of
them
moved
to
the
the
USF
area.
R
This
created
transportation
problems,
job
problems,
all
kinds
of
issues.
We
can't
solve
the
poverty
problem
by
subsidizing
gentrification
to
move
people
to
other
places
and
so
I'm
not
asking
for
a
response.
I
know,
Marc
and
I
spend
a
lot
of
time
talking
about
that,
but
you
all
have
have
said
that,
let's
please
focus
poverty
has
to
be
one
of
the
very
top
goals.
Ending
ending
poverty.
Reducing
poverty
and
with
that
is
is,
is
the
the
racial
harmony
and
equity
issues
that
go
with
it
number
two.
R
Our
community
has
spent
a
lot
of
time
over
the
last
few
years
focus
on
the
number
of
jobs.
We
measure
success
in
the
number
of
jobs
we
get
and
because
of
that,
the
EDC
and
other
groups
have
focused
on
recruiting
back
office
operations
and
they
real
able
them
every
year.
So
they
sound
more
important,
but
the
most
successful
companies
in
this
area
are
the
companies
they're
being
generated
by
ideas
at
USF
and
other
places.
R
There
are
two
companies
in
the
last
few
months
that
sold
for
several
hundred
million
dollars
that
didn't
even
come
from
the
biotech
labs
at
USF.
They
came
from
the
business
school
and
buy
and
business
analytics,
one
of
them,
I,
think
sold
for
1.5
billion
dollars
and
created
200
millionaires
in
our
area,
so
the
amount
of
wealth
that's
generating
from
USF
is
incredible
and
the
the
the
possibility
of
accelerating
that
is
really
important.
But
we
shouldn't
measure
the
number
of
jobs
and
we
shouldn't
subsidize
low-paying
jobs
coming
from
other
areas.
R
I
know
you
all
aren't
trying
to
do
that,
but
we
need
to.
We
just
need
to
think
about
this
in
a
different
way.
Number
three.
We
can't
measure
success
in
real
estate
over
the
last
eight
years.
In
particular,
everything
that
we
show
in
terms
of
success
is
a
list
of
real
estate
projects,
even
in
the
pictures
that
you
just
showed
us
all
real
estate
projects
and
that's
the
visual
representation
of
it.
R
But
what
we
need
to
think
about
is
not
the
buildings,
but
the
people
that
are
in
the
buildings,
the
the
the
companies
that
are
in
there,
the
foreigners
that
we
help
grow
and
accelerate
that
are
in
those
but
and
I
spent
a
long
time
talking
to
Beau
about
this
and
he's
worked
in
other
communities.
He
knows
this
exactly
and
I'm
very
excited
to
work
on
that.
But
please,
as
we
come
back,
let's,
let's
find
a
different
set
of
measurements.
That
leads
into
my
point
number
four.
R
Somehow
we
need
to
measure
the
ecosystem
and
the
success
of
it
and
I
spent
a
lot
of
time
with
USF
and
there's.
There's
multidisciplinary
research
going
on
there's
all
kinds
of
activity
activity.
With
the
institution's
the
all
mentioned.
We
need
to
figure
out
better
how
to
measure
the
connectivity
and
what's
happening.
R
They're
not
real
estate
projects,
but
we're
creating
wealth
and
millionaires
and
we're
bringing
people
out
of
poverty
in
our
community,
and
we
need
USF
and
these
other
institutions
to
get
the
credit
for
what
they're
doing,
and
we
need
to
set
the
community
standard
differently
to
measure
the
things
that
are
really
important.
Lastly,
mark
knows
I've
been
a
volunteer
in
this
process,
since
he
got
involved.
I
was
a
volunteer
facilitator.
R
The
first
meeting
was
that
four
or
five
years
ago
and
I'm,
very,
very
supportive
of
this-
the
USF
is,
is
the
the
major
economic
engine
for
our
area.
All
the
institutions
that
are
involved
I
want
to
thank
them
for
the
money
and
time
they
put
in
to
support
mark
in
his
efforts.
Without
you
know,
Moffitt
and
Florida,
Hospital
and
Busch,
Gardens
and
USF,
and
all
these
groups.
R
D
I
You
mr.
chairman
I
appreciate
all
the
work
that
all
of
you
have
done
for
many
years.
I
know
you,
sir,
for
you
today
is
a
plan
that
you
have
in
mind.
That's
the
first
part
certainly
create
hope
for
people
that
have
looking
every
time
you
look
outside.
They
see
something:
that's
not
there
somewhere
else.
That's
and
you
also
have
job
opportunities,
but
you're
realist.
You
realize
what
you
have
to
do
and
you
do
it
and
when
I
believe
in
giving
individuals
or
groups
of
individual
hand
up
not
a
push
down.
I
However,
that
said
twice
today,
I
heard
the
word
stadiums:
I
do
not
support
stadium,
I,
don't
care
who
they
are
where
they
come
from,
because
they
don't
pay
any
ad
valorem
tax.
They
don't
pay
anything
and
they
take
it
all.
So
anybody
wants
to
debate
me
today
tomorrow
or
in
the
future
on
stadiums,
I'm
ready,
I'm,
the
only
one
that
ever
voted
against
the
stadium
of
this
council
and
you
know
what
I
still
got
elected
so
there's
got
to
be
a
reason:
I'm,
not
the
smartest.
B
I
In
the
world,
but
I
try
hard
the
congratulations
to
all
of
you
two
getting
together
and
that's
the
first
team
performing
a
team.
You
can
speak
to
each
other.
They
never
get
together,
you're
not
going
to
go
anywhere.
But
when
you
work
together
and
speak
together,
they
you
have
one
common
goal.
Thank
you
for
doing
what
you're
doing
Thank.
H
You,
mr.
chairman,
and
to
all
of
our
esteemed
guests
today,
a
very
impressive
program
and
Commissioner
sharp
you've
done
a
great
job
on
this,
as
well
as
so
many
other
things
in
our
community
over
the
many
years.
I
looked
at
your
request
today
and
you
know
I
totally
totally
support.
It
obviously
were
in
the
very
conceptual
beginnings
of
this
in
regard
to
the
relationship
between
you
know,
with
the
city
and
and
then
in
those
needs,
but
then
you
gave
them
more
detailed
lists
earlier.
H
In
terms
of
you
know,
zoning
issues,
TDRs
boundaries,
revenues
and
regular
reports.
Those
sort
of
things
which
are
a
little
more
detailed
and
concrete
and
very
critical
one
thing
I
wanted
to
say,
was
some
in
mr.
Bennett
is
back
in
the
back
of
the
room
for
the
mayor
and
listening
intently
and
I'm
sure
you
guys
have
been
working
closely
with
with
the
mayor
and
staff
on
this,
but
I
would
suggest,
and
you
know
we
have
sunshine
constraints
which
mr.
sharps
welcome
well
aware
of,
but
I
would
suggest
mr.
H
H
Yeah
and
and
and
I'm
glad
to
hear
you
you're
saying
that's
that
sounds
good
to
you.
I,
don't
know
that
needs
a
motion
or
anything
like
that,
but
it
just
seems
like
a
logical
thing.
Not
only
is
our
chair,
but
also
that
this
is
your
district.
Yes,
so
with
that,
congratulations,
we
look
forward
to
working
with
you
thanks
again.
D
D
Q
Mark
you
know
that
I
wholeheartedly
on
board
with
this
back
in
1979,
when
my
plans
for
USF
did
not
work
out,
I
was
living
at
131st
and
15th.
Street
and
I
did
not
see
a
way
out
of
there
fast
forward.
30
years,
listen
to
dr.
Judy
Genshaft,
saying
how
we
have
this
wonderful,
beautiful
one
of
the
best
colleges
in
the
southeast
USF,
but
to
get
there,
you
had
to
go
through
a
depressed
area.
Nothing
really
has
changed
so
I.
Q
Thank
you
for
taking
the
first
steps
and
and
and
bringing
us
all
together
to
make
this
a
better
area.
I
also
want
to
thank
you,
because
we
all
know
that
growth
is
gonna
move
from
there.
Maybe
we
can
even
start
looking
at
Busch
Boulevard
in
the
future
to
get
to
be
part
of
this
or
this
type
of
work.
Well,
thank
you
very
much
mark
yes,
sir
Malcolm.
So.
A
A
few
I
would
say
about
a
year
ago,
a
friend
of
mine
and
I
had
dinner
at
the
Steak
and
Shake
on
Fowler
yeah,
and
he
went
to
USM.
He
graduated
at
93,
I
graduated
in
oh
seven,
and
as
we
stood
in
the
parking
lot
looking
down
the
road,
he
says
it
looks
exactly
as
it
did.
1993
everything
is
the
same.
The
businesses
have
changed
and
whatnot
because,
but
it's
the
same
feel
so
almost
30
years.
Since
you
know
well
over
25
years
since
he
graduated,
you
know
not
much
has
changed,
but
now.
A
Finally,
we
have
the
focus
on
that
area
from
University
Mall
to
Moffitt
to
the
the
whole
area
in
general,
and
we
we
see
the
unders.
We
understand
the
importance
and
then
significance
of
that
area,
not
just
people
that
go
to
push
Gardens
that
are
hanging
out
in
that
area,
but,
as
councilman
Carlson
said
so
eloquently
the
importance
of
USF
and
what
comes
out
of
that
University
in
that
whole
area
as
an
innovation
district
graduates
that
come
there,
millionaires
that
are
being
created,
companies
that
are
being
started
that
are
sold,
we're
talking
huge
amounts
of
money.
A
So
much
is
going
on
in
Tampa,
but
we
can't
just
stop
at
the
downtown
area.
We
can't
stop
at
Busch
Boulevard.
We
have
to
go
beyond
that
this
area
here,
that's
so
significant,
such
a
huge
partial
of
parcel
of
land.
You
know
you
mentioned
100
acres
at
were
than
where
the
mall
is
that,
but
there's
so
much
potential,
and
you
know
for
people
that
come
to
Tampa
for
different
reasons.
You
know
some
come
for
cigar
City
brewery,
some
come
for
Ybor
City,
some
come
for
Busch
Gardens,
a
lot
of
people
come
from
all
fit.
A
You
know.
Moffitt
has
been
such
a
huge
part
of
this
community
and
helping
so
many
people,
but
it's
in
that.
It's
in
the
heart
of
everything
that
you're
talking
about.
So
you
have
my
support,
always
because
going
back
to
that
conversation
outside
has
taken
shape.
It
looks
the
same
well
that
time
has
come
to
an
end
where
we're
gonna
see
was
it
have
changed
that
that
area
so
much
deserves?
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
hard
work.
Thank
you
in
closing,
I'm.
D
E
As
counsel
councilman
dick
felt
it
did
say
this
is
preliminary
and
it's
going
to
be
coming
back
to
Council.
You
don't
require
public
comment
at
this
time.
Probably.
E
D
And
before
that,
just
something
also
I
also
wanted
to
say
very
quickly
which
that
this
conversation
also
has
a
lot
to
do
with
Fowler
in
terms
of
improving
Fowler,
making
Fowler
more
of
a
livable
community,
more
of
a
walkable
community,
a
place,
that's
truly
safe
for
bicyclists
and
pedestrians
and
where
people
there
have
the
dignity
and
respect
that
they
deserve.
And
why
did
my
colleague
also
brought
up
Busch,
Boulevard
I?
D
J
Will
say
and
I
know
times
gone,
but
these
are
gateways
which
is
a
gateway
into
a
wonderful
community.
Fowler's
gateway
into
the
community
collector
is
a
gateway.
We
have
under
bridge
lighting
that
we're
working
on
now
for
Bush
and
Fowler.
You're
gonna
see
a
lot
of
changes,
physical
changes,
but
but
it
is
about
the
people
serve,
and
we
get
that
and
we're
gonna
make
that
commitment
to
you.
We
appreciate
your
feedback
and
we
look
forward
to
partnering
with
you.
A
A
H
Before
we
vote
and
before
they
leave
I
just
wanted
to
give
an
extra
shout
out
to
Mike
Merrill
I
think
Mike's
might
be
retiring
next
year.
There's
a
rumor
I
guess
out
there,
but
as
the
county
administrator
I
think
mr.
Merrill
has
done
a
great
job
while
numerous
capacities
at
the
county,
but
especially
as
a
county
administrator
and
in
helping
build
the
relationship
between
the
city
and
county,
which
is
not
an
easy
task
which,
over
the
years
prior,
was
a
lot
rockier
and
and
I.
H
Think,
due
to
your
leadership
and
and
just
just
your
general
attitude
of
cooperation,
I
think
things
have
gotten
much
better
and
and
that's
so
important
people
don't
know
where
the
city
in
the
county,
starting
in
they
just
want
to
look
at
good
government
and
and
governments
working
together
and
you've
done
a
great
job
with
that.
Thank
you.
D
R
E
R
D
D
H
Sir
item
11
is
I,
think
almost
a
million
dollars
of
grant
money
that's
coming
to
and
through
the
city
through
specifically
through
TPD,
to
address
the
opiate
problems
in
our
community
and
I.
Just
thought:
it'd
be
a
good
opportunity
for
TP
day
to
explain
the
grant
and
what
we're
gonna
use
the
money
for
a
positive
way.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
M
Q
Q
D
M
First,
is
we
want
to
get
treatment
for
the
person
that's
overdosed
and
second
of
all,
we
want
to
get
actionable
intelligence,
so
we
can
go
after
the
dealers
and
so
far
we've
been
extremely
successful,
with
identifying
dealers
that
are
distributing
heroin
and
fentanyl
to
the
community
and
causing
these
unfortunate
fatalities
and
and
overdoses.
What
we
found,
though,
was
the
treatment
side
for
us.
There
were
significant
gaps
in
the
they'll
ability
of
resources
directly
accessible
to
the
Tampa
Police
Department.
So
we
could
get
these
people
into
treatment
and
also
offer
them
diversion
from
criminal
justice.
M
So
we
reached
out
to
several
agencies,
acts
the
Hillsborough,
County
County,
Drug
Alliance
and
the
USF
Mental
Health
Institute,
and
we
sat
down
and
we
developed
some
partnerships
with
those
individuals,
and
we
realized
that
the
big
the
big
thing
I
was
missing
was
beds.
Treatment
for
beds
available
beds,
so
we
saw
this
grant
that
was
put
out
by
BJ
a
that
does
offer
money
for
opioid
treatment.
So
we
sat
down
with
USF
and
acts
and
we
wrote
a
grant
and
fortunately
we
were
awarded
the
grant
so
with
that
money.
M
First
thing
we
need
is
a
program
manager.
So
all
of
these
people
that
we
come
in
contact
with
that
are
addicts
from
from
opioid
abuse.
We
need
somebody
that
can
coordinate
all
the
available
resources,
so
part
of
the
grant
is
going
to
go
to
hiring
a
program
manager
a
program
coordinator,
and
that
person
is
going
to
make
sure
that
after
we
make
that
initial
contact,
they're
gonna
follow
up
and
make
sure
they
get
the
available
services.
H
M
And
the
one
thing
I
would
like
to
say
is:
you
know:
I've
got
career,
narcotics,
detectives
that
are
assigned
to
this
and
when
I
told
them
that
they're
going
to
be
basically
social
workers
at
first,
they
were
a
little
bit
reluctant.
You
know,
but
I
will
tell
you
this.
These
guys
have
developed
this
sincere
empathy
for
the
families
and
these
addicted
people,
and
it
was
good
to
see
that
there
was
that
there
are.
M
H
It's
not
a
misdemeanor,
and
as
long
as
it's
listed
narcotic
and
and
and
so
many
people
go
down
that
path
initially
from
hurting
themselves,
they
hurt
themselves.
They've
got
some
pain
issue
that
go
to
the
doctor
very
innocently
that
you
know
they
get,
they
get
prescribed,
prescription
runs
out
and
then
they
end
up
out
on
the
street,
and
then
they
end
up
in
court
and
and
really
I'm
really
proud
that
you
and
your
officers
are
addressing
it.
Yes,.
M
Q
Could
thank
you
very
much
for
being
here
today.
I
know
how
hard
your
specially
liaisons
work
working
with.
Why
CDC
you
mentally
as
a
on
officer
who
worked
with
homeless
and
that
person
actually
gave
money
out
of
their
own
pocket
to
make
sure
that
these
people
had
food
had
shelter
who
could
get
bus
rides
back
to
their
families?
I
just
have
a
few
questions,
and
hopefully
you
can
answer
them.
For
me,
this
is
going
to
be
a
great
program,
but
sometimes
programs
get
turned
into
revolving
doors.
M
So
we
are
working
out
a
diversion
program
with
the
State
Attorney's
Office.
It's
in
its
infancy.
I
just
spoke
with
them
yesterday
for
the
first
time,
but
we're
trying
to
get
where
nonviolent
offenders
for
for
minor.
You
know,
minor
crimes
are
diverted
from
the
criminal
justice
system.
So
I,
don't
I,
don't
have
a
number,
but
again.
Q
M
There's
a
program
that's
adopted
out
of
Seattle
and
I
can,
if
you
like
I,
could
I
can
send
you
that
please
yeah
and
we're
gonna.
It's
worked
very
successful.
It's
actually
part
of
the
evidence,
evidence-based
lead
program,
that's
used
and
a
lot
of
other
cities
around
across
the
country,
but
we
do
have
the
I.
Don't
I,
don't
have
it
with
me
right
now,
but
I
can
send
it
to
you
as.
Q
Q
M
So
part
of
the
grant
we
brought
on
USF
as
a
research
partner
and
they're
going
to
be
doing
an
in-depth
analysis
of
what
we're
doing
the
big
thing
in
law
enforcement.
These
days
is,
let's
make
sure
what
we're
doing
works
you
know,
so
we
like
to
bring
in
research
partners
to
make
sure
that
we're
evidence-based
and
that
we're
doing
something
it.
You
know
a
lot
of
times.
We
do
things
and
it
works.
It
doesn't
work,
we're
not
sure
what
actually
works.
M
Q
M
D
Thank
You
anyone
else.
Okay,
thank
you
and
just
wanted
to
echo,
especially
what
councilman
Dean
Felder
said,
which
is
that
this
is
something
that
happens.
It
can
happen.
Anybody
I
always
believe
that
we
are
all
no
matter
who
we
are
15
degrees
to
the
right
or
to
the
left
of
virtually
being
homeless.
I
really
believe
that
and
part
of
it
is
you
get
into
an
accident.
You
start
taking
some
medication,
and
then
you
have
a
adverse
affect
on
it.
D
D
B
Weber
water
department
director,
so
it
was
asked
to
give
an
annual
report
on
water
quality,
pleased
to
say
that
we
cede
all
federal
drinking
water
requirements
and
beyond
that
we
are
a
membership.
A
member
of
the
AWWA
partnership
for
safe
drinking
water,
which,
with
that
membership,
we
make
a
commitment
to
continually
improve
our
water
quality.
So
we
don't
good,
is
not
good
enough.
We're
continuously
improving
every
year
we
produce
an
annual
water
quality
report
that
goes
out
in
June
and
I
would
recommend
that
we
move
this
report
to
June.
B
The
only
other
thing
I'd
like
to
report
about
water
quality
is,
we
generally
received
less
than
one
quality
complaint
a
day
which
is
pretty
good
for
a
water
system
of
our
size
and
over
half
of
those
turn
out
to
be
an
internal
problem,
plumbing
problem
that
we
help
the
customers
resolve
so
from
a
water
quality
standpoint
we're
in
good
shape,
total
organic
carbon
in
the
Hillsborough
River
remains
our
most
challenging
treatment
issue,
but
we
were
very
successful
at
removing
it
with
our
treatment
plant
and
with
that
I'll.
Take
any
questions
you
have.
R
B
The
the
pipe
was
broken
during
a
construction
phase
that
happened,
I
believe
in
June
and
required
special
fittings.
Those
fittings
were
occurred
and
installed
in
a
couple
weeks
ago,
as
we
started
the
flushing
and
the
pressure
typing
process,
one
of
those
fittings
failed
and
we're
waiting
for
a
replacement.
We
are
expecting
to
have
that
complete
in
the
next
couple
weeks.
D
I
I
I
B
H
So
yeah,
because
right
now
it
looks
like
from
some
prior
council
motion
that
this
is
just
kicking
in
every
October
which,
like
you
say,
doesn't
make
any
sense.
So
I
don't
know.
If
do
you
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
already?
Okay,
so
I'll
just
move
it.
The
mr.
Weber
come
back,
let's
say
enter
about
the
beginning
of
July,
but
first,
let's
say
the
first
council
meeting
in
July
under
regular
staff
reports
annually
to
give
us
an
update
on
water
quality.
Do.
H
H
B
D
D
B
Morning
in
City,
Council
of
Jeanne
Duncan
with
transportation
and
stormwater
services
departments,
we
provided
a
report
on
this
item
which
is
regarding
there
was
an
interest
in
creating
a
citizen's
traffic
Advisory
Committee
I
did
speak
to
mr.
Kim
key
ports,
who
was
the
actual
citizen
who
had
generated
this
idea
and
talked
to
him.
He
came
to
one
of
our
transportation
advisory
team
stakeholder
meetings
that
the
mayor
is
having
and
participated
in.
One
of
those
meetings
and
I
talked
to
him
a
couple
weeks
ago.
B
Maybe
we
can
have
a
go
and
let
him
know
that
I
was
submitting
this
report
to
Council,
which
is
basically
saying
that
we'd
like
to
take
his
idea
and
roll
that
into
the
recommendations
that
come
out
will
be
coming
up
very
soon
from
the
mayor's
transportation
Advisory
team,
which
is
speaking
to
how
we
want
to
go
forward
with
public
engagement
with
citizens
on
transportation
projects
and
do
it
more
holistically.
So
mr.
key
ports
was
agreeable
to
that
and
without
planning
to
come
here
to
City
Council.
B
D
B
Don't
believe
it's
that
type
of
a
committee,
but
we
certainly
you
know,
transparency
in
which
I
heard
that
word
was
overused,
so
I'm,
sorry,
but
engagement
and
and
information
ahead
of
time
and
input
ahead
of
time
is
definitely
the
goal.
So,
even
though
it
wouldn't
be
maybe
with
an
appointment.
There's
certain
be
protocols
that
we'll
be
providing
you
or
up
for
an
information
opportunity
to
weigh
in
and
making
sure
your
constituents
have
that
same
opportunity.
Yeah.
D
And
I
would
suggest
that
to
make
sure
that
there
are
efforts
to
secure
through
through
council
members,
especially
the
four
district
individuals,
members
from
all
parts
of
the
city,
I
think
that's
important,
something
that
I
also
suggested
for
this
idea
when
it
was
originally
before
us,
is
to
make
sure
that
we
also
have
somebody
from
the
disability
community.
There
I
know
a
gentleman
mr.
councilman
Carlson
brought
up
a
nice
gentleman.
Mr.
Arizona
there's
just
a
bunch
of
names,
come
to
mind
a
good
friend,
Karen
clay,
who
has
a
son
with
special
needs.
D
R
B
D
Yeah
and
I
I
mean
will
can
I
guess
we
can
continue
to
support
that
individually
and
I
guess
and
see
where
the
recommendations
come
out.
I
would
like
to
see
a
committee,
so
I
still
stand
by
that
idea.
Me
personally,
council
Maniscalco
was
wise
enough
to
bring
this
up
first,
just
a
formal
body
that
we
can
go
to
whenever
it
comes
to
transportation
issues.
How
about
if.
I
K
K
A
E
D
B
D
K
B
D
C
Point
chairman
warren
council,
john
bennett,
chief
of
staff.
I
know
a
report
has
been
filed
from
office
of
brad
baird
and
mark
wolf.
Oh
I
know
councilman
ding
Feld
has
been
spoken
to
I.
Think
most
have
you've
seen
the
report
we're
hoping
this.
We
know
this
is
a
work
in
progress,
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
report
suffices
any.
H
Yeah
as
the
as
the
chair
of
Public,
Works
Committee,
mr.
Bennett
was,
and
his
team
were
kind
enough
to
brief
me
on
this.
It's
a
big
issue
and
I
know:
counsel.
I'm
gonna
make
a
motion
later
in
the
meeting
up
to
get
a
fuller
report
in
terms
of
the
administration's
plans
on
taking
over
the
waste
energy
facility.
H
The
meeting
I
will
make
a
motion
for
a
staff
report
probably
later
in
the
year
as
those
plans
get
submitted,
but
anyway
I
in
the
abstract
and,
as
I
said
in
the
newspaper
article
today,
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
I
think
if
we
can
save
millions
of
dollars
and
keep
that
money
in-house
and
reinvest
it
in
our
own
facility
I
think
it's
a
great
a
great
plan.
Thank.
R
Maybe
I
missed
something,
but
at
first
I
knew
about
this
was
when
I
read
it
in
the
paper
and
read
the
documents
here
so
I
think
a
fuller
briefing
would
be
great
and
also
a
chance
for
the
public
to
weigh
in.
It
may
be
a
good
idea
and
I
trusted
mr.
Bennett
that
he's
looked
at
this
carefully,
but
I
just
think.
It's
always
good
on
something
that
big
to
make
sure
the
public
has
a
chance
to
weigh
in
thank.
D
A
B
You
may
recall
on
September
the
12th
was
the
second
public
hearing
in
connection
with
a
substantial
public,
a
substantial
amendment
to
our
consolidated
and
annual
plans.
Key
component
of
that
was
to
allow
certain
funds
to
be
used
for
the
acquisition
of
real
property
to
be
devoted
to
affordable
housing.
The
second
public
hearing
was
concluded.
B
A
motion
was
not
taken
up
to
adopt
that
second
amendment
I'm
here
to
submit
a
resolution
adopting
the
Second
Amendment,
it
is
to
be
effective,
retroactively
lead
to
September
the
12th,
and
if
you
have
any
questions,
the
nice
and
clear
from
the
department
is
with
me
and
I'll.
Take
any
questions
you
may
have.
Thank.
H
H
D
D
Yes,
sir,
that's
funny
any
other
staff
reports
that
I'm
missing
just
making
sure.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Okay.
Next,
we
move.
D
To
public
comment,
anyone
who
is
here
for
public
comment
just
so
we
get
a
good
idea.
Could
you
please
raise
your
hand?
Okay,
good?
Okay.
We
have
a
robust
public
comment
time
today,
so
if
anybody
who
is
going
to
come,
please,
if
you're
able
to
do
so
line
up
against
the
wall,
so
that
we
can
know
who
to
call
next.
O
Because
of
racial
hatred
and
you
can
be
coming
to
a
party
or
planning
the
party-
and
you
get
word
that
one
gay
person
is
coming
to
the
party
and
you're
gonna
cancel
it
and
the
same
thing.
If
you
heard
one
Jewish
person,
you've
heard
it
might
be
a
Jew
coming
to
your
party,
and
you
know
what
let's
cancel
this
party
and
you
can
own
a
bakery
in
the
northwestern
state
of
the
United
States,
and
you
can
hear
one
gay
person
want
you
to
bake
a
cake
and
you're
gonna
say
no.
O
O
That's
what
they're
doing
right
here
right
now
when
the
people
come
in
here,
you
got
an
agenda
that
say
at
10
o'clock.
Is
it
really,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
your
dinner?
Don't
say
anything
and
you
realize
you're
mister
and
you
try
to
cover
for
it.
The
genders
say
when
is
public
comment
but
y'all,
don't
like
public
comments?
O
O
And
the
people
went
on
and
on
and
on,
if
there's
a
time
for
when
the
city
employees
can
come
and
speak,
let
it
be
a
time
for
when
the
public
can
come
and
speak
so
we
could
feel
invited.
But
you
hate
dissent.
You
hate
what
poor
people
have
to
say.
You
hate
what
black
people
have
to
say
and
y'all
treat
us
like
dogs
like
animals
that
Humane
Society
treat
the
dogs
better.
That's
racial
hatred.
T
Good
morning
my
name
is
Tom
Aitken.
My
address
is
50
to
10
south
jules
verne
court,
Tampa
and
I'm
here
to
urge
you
to
adopt
the
resolution
supporting
HR
1380
for
the
medicare-for-all
act
of
2019
I
believe
the
medicare-for-all
act
is
critically
needed
for
two
reasons.
Reason
number
one
Medicare
is
a
far
better
health
care
system
than
the
current
system.
T
Number
two.
The
US
healthcare
system
is
the
most
expensive
in
the
world,
yet
it
ranks
last
among
the
wealthiest
nations
in
the
world
in
overall
performance
as
to
reason
number
one,
Medicare
being
the
most
Medicare
being
a
far
better
system.
I
can
speak
from
my
own
experience
when
I
retired
three
years
ago,
I
ceased
coverage
under
an
employer,
spot
plan,
health
plan
and
I
commenced
coverage
under
Medicare
Part
B,
adding
a
Medigap
policy
and
prescription
drug
plan.
So
now,
when
I
go
to
a
doctor,
I
show
two
cards.
T
Several
studies
have
measured
the
expense
and
performance
of
the
US
health
care
system,
and
here
are
some
of
the
disturbing
findings
from
those
reports.
In
a
study
published
last
week
in
the
Journal
of
the
American
Medical
Association,
the
estimated
waste
in
the
current
US
healthcare
system
is
at
least
seven
hundred
and
sixty
billion
dollars
a
year
that
exceeds
military
spending
I'm
out
of
time.
So
I
urgently
asked
you
to
support
the
Medicare
for
all
Act
of
2019
and
I.
Think
thank.
D
H
H
F
Good
morning
councilman
my
name
is
sky.
You
white
I'm
here
today,
not
just
as
a
lifelong
Hillsboro,
County
resident,
but
also
as
a
nurse
and
one
who
was
a
staunch
supporter
of
Medicare
for
all
throughout
my
15
years
in
the
medical
field,
I
have
cared
for
individuals
who
suffered
from
many
types
of
ailments.
Some
expected
most
were
not
the
most
painstaking
memories
were
those
who
are
once
healthy
and
thriving
citizens
who
unfortunately
found
themselves
in
a
medical
predicament
that
left
them
in
financial
ruins.
F
Economists
believe
that
everyone
should
have
at
least
three
months
of
income
saved
in
an
emergency
fund
to
cover
unexpected
expenses,
including
health
care
costs.
However,
one
ER
visit
can
deplete
someone's
entire
savings,
and
that's
just
one
visit
that
does
not
include
the
cost
of
follow-up
visits
or
diagnostic
tests
that
come
after
the
ER
visit.
This
could
be
a
motor
vehicle
accident,
a
fall
off
of
a
ladder
while
putting
up
Christmas
lights,
or
god
forbid,
a
cancer
diagnosis
that
would
put
someone
in
complete
financial
ruins
for
our
marginalized
residents.
F
All
it
takes
is
something
as
simple
as
the
flu
statistics
show,
this
66.5
percent
of
all
bankruptcies
were
tied
to
medical
issues.
Health
care
should
be
a
right
from
the
perspective
of
a
medical
professional
whose
witness
families
having
to
choose
between
their
savings
and
their
health
I,
encourage
you
all
to
vote
YES
on
the
Medicare
for
all
resolution.
Thank
you.
Thank.
L
Take
you
to
the
council.
My
name
is
Bradley
van
Wallace
and
I'm
a
Tampa
resident
and
I'm
also
the
southern
region,
director
for
National
Nurses
United,
the
nation's
largest
union
of
registered
nurses,
and
we
represent
nurses
here
in
Tampa
at
the
James
de
Haley
VA
I'm,
here,
to
urge
the
City
Council
to
support
the
resolution
and
support
of
Medicare
for
all
HR
1380
for
and
direct
our
congressional
delegation
to
support
it
as
well.
L
Nurses
know
that
our
broken
health
care
system
is
in
crisis
and
our
patients
are
suffering
the
ACA
helped,
but
do
not
go
far
enough.
28
million
people
are
still
uninsured
and
30
million
are
underinsured
with
unaffordable
deductibles
premiums,
co-pays
and
medicine
costs.
Recently,
we
have
seen
a
significant
increase
in
those
that
support
Medicare
for
all.
According
to
the
latest
poll,
70%
of
all
Americans
support,
Medicare
for
all
and
moving
to
a
single-payer
system
in
this
country.
At
the
root
of
our
broken
health
care
system
is
the
profit
of
our
patients.
L
Economic
model
Nerissa
see
patients
daily
who
delay
getting
their
medicine
procedures,
treatments
and
tests
because
they
cannot
afford
them.
This
can
lead
to
a
worsening
of
their
conditions
and
sometimes
death.
33%
of
all
Americans
report
they've
skipped
necessary
treatment
because
they
cannot
afford
it.
Even
families
that
have
health
insurance
report.
They
have
difficulty
paying
premiums
and
deductibles
working
families
that
get
coverage
through
their
employer
are
contributing.
Two
hundred
forty
five
percent
more
than
a
1999
Medicare
for
all,
is
the
solution.
L
This
removed
deductibles
premiums
and
co-pays
from
the
system
which
would
allow
people
to
get
the
health
care
they
need
now
that
they
can
afford
with
employer-sponsored
health
insurance.
People
are
still
paying
high
premiums
for
family
coverage.
According
to
the
Kaiser
Family
Foundation
overall
FAMU
family
annual
premiums
have
increased
324
percent
since
1999
this
higher
cost
has
not
been
covered
by
wage
increases
or
rarely
by
their
employer.
I
would
just
say
that
the
city
of
Tampa
alone
would
save
millions
of
dollars
in
employee
health
costs,
saving
money
for
other
societal
needs.
L
If
we
had
a
medicare-for-all
free
system,
so
nurses
all
over
the
u.s.,
are
engaging
with
their
communities
on
Medicare
for
all.
In
fact,
we
have
launched
a
strong
Medicare
for
all
campaign.
Remember,
seventy
percent
of
people
in
this
country
support
Medicare
for
all,
and
that
includes
52
percent
of
Republicans
nurses
are
calling
on
our
elected
leaders
to
have
the
political
will
to
get
it
done.
We
must
ask
our
legislators,
both
statewide
and
throughout
the
nation,
to
support
medic
for
all
we're
up
to
a
good
start.
L
S
There
is
no
doubt
that
the
the
system
have
health
care
in
the
United
States
as
cruel
and
barbaric,
and
nothing
short
of
the
institutional
change
that
Medicare
for
all
will
bring,
will
change
it,
and
this
concept
is
not
far-fetched
or
unobtainable.
Many
countries
around
the
world
have
been
guaranteeing
universal
health
care
for
decades.
Now
the
UK
Canada
Germany.
This
is
mainstream
policy
all
over
the
globe.
S
The
United
States
is
alone
and
its
failure
to
stand
up
to
the
performance,
suit,
achill
and
insurance
industries,
while
drug
companies
are
literally
killing
Americans
through
the
opioid
crisis
and
price
fixing
medications
that
people
need
to
survive,
we
have
allowed
them
to
take
in
over
at
80
billion
dollars
in
profits.
The
last
year
alone.
Now
to
be
clear,
no
one
is
doubting.
The
amazing
work
that
scientists
and
researchers
and
doctors
and
nurses
are
doing
to
advance
health
care,
but
capitalism
and
greed
have
turned
a
life-saving
industry
into
a
profit-seeking
behemoth.
S
Under
a
universal
health
care
system,
patients
would
have
a
direct
line
to
see
their
doctors
without
having
to
pass
through
the
hurdles
of
insurance
companies,
loans,
out-of-pocket
expenses.
Now
some
are
quick
to
claim
that
Medicare
for
all
will
take
away
their
health
care.
Absolutely
not
what
this
bill
would
we'll
take
away.
Is
the
middleman
in
between
you
and
your
health
care
and
allowing
you
to
go
to
any
doctor
or
specialist
that
you
want,
regardless
of
if
it
is
in
network
Councilmembers,
when
you
cast
your
vote
on
this
resolution
is
a
vote
of
morality
and
principle.
S
It's
whether
you
believe
that
the
purpose
of
health
care
is
to
make
billions
for
insurance
executives.
It's
rather.
You
believe
that
children
should
be
rationing,
their
medication,
because
their
parents
cannot
afford
the
copay.
It's
whether
you
believe
someone's
paced
up
sets
a
certain
number
and
that
should
determine
whether
they
see
a
doctor
when
they
are
sick.
I
urge
you
follow
your
conscience
and
vote
YES
on
this
crucial
piece
of
legislation.
Thank.
O
All
right,
hello,
my
name
is
Francisco
Pierre
Louis
I
am
a
student
at
his
birth
Community
College
I've
been
in
Tampa.
My
whole
life
I
came
before
you
guys
to
speak
on
behalf
of
my
support
of
Medicare
for
all
I.
Believe
Medicare
for
would
not
only
save
people
money,
but
it
will
also
save
lives,
and
as
of
this
moment,
you
know
we
have
people
right
now
that
are
under
the
burden
of
student
loan
debt
and
many
other
things
that
have
cost
me
so
much
money
in
regards
to
getting
by
throughout
their
lives.
O
N
Hello
councilman
chair,
my
name
is
Beth
Shoop
and
I
believe
that
health
care
is
a
human
right
and
that
we
have
a
moral
imperative
to
provide
affordable
access
to
quality
health
care
for
all
American
citizens,
I
hope
and
I
pray
that
you
feel
the
same.
I'm
appealing
to
your
moral
core
to
support
the
resolution
to
support
HR
bill,
1384
Medicare
for
all
act
2019,
as
our
sister
city
of
st.
Petersburg
has
already
done.
N
Some
60
million
Americans
per
year,
including
one-half
of
the
insured
population,
are
forced
to
skip
or
delay
medical
care
in
2016,
a
survey
conducted
by
the
Kaiser
Family
Institute
in
partnership
with
the
New
York
Times,
found
that
85
million
Americans
were
in
medical
debt
of
those
roughly
6
out
of
10
were
insured.
I
am
insured
through
my
husband's
employers
plan,
which
are
which
costs
our
family
$6,000
per
year
in
premiums,
and
we
have
a
ten
thousand
dollar
deductible
per
person
max
20
thousand
dollars
per
family.
N
N
We
deserve
a
health
care
system
that
cares
for
the
health
of
our
citizens,
which
is
void
of
profit
motive.
Medicare
for
all
would
guarantee
a
single
standard
of
care
to
everyone.
It
would
provide
all
medically
necessary
care,
long
term
care,
mental
health,
reproductive
dental
vision
and
all
other
care
people
need
everyone
in
the
United.
N
States
would
be
guaranteed
seamless
care
from
cradle
to
grave,
allowing
us
true
choice
and
freedom
to
move
in
and
out
of
jobs
and
relationships
without
worrying
about
medical
care,
health
care
would
be
provided
to
all
society
as
a
public
good
like
the
police
department
or
the
fire
department,
rather
than
as
an
individually
rationed
commodity
I
once
again
appeal
to
you
to
support
this
resolution
to
support
Medicare
for
all.
Thank
you.
Thank.
P
I
just
want
to
be
on
the
record.
This
is
Kristen
Hoffman
and
I'm,
a
Tampa
resident
and
zip
code
336
to
9
and
I'll
cut
through
most
of
my
comments,
but
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
today
and
thank
you
for
your
support
in
the
resolution
to
support
Medicare
for
all
and
encouraging
our
Florida
delegation
to
support
HR
1380
for
I'm,
a
veteran,
a
mother
and
a
cancer
survivor
and
I'm
so
excited
that
we
are
having
this
discussion
today.
P
Thank
you
for
taking
a
position
and
for
raising
the
discussion
above
myths
and
fears
and
looking
at
the
facts
and
supporting
the
greater
good
at
the
heart
of
the
matter.
Taking
care
of
people
is
simply
the
right
thing
to
do.
I
believe
that
the
government
and
our
leaders
should
serve
the
people
and
represent
their
needs,
and
we
need
expanded
and
improved
Medicare
for
everyone.
P
Universal
single-payer
health
care
is
possible
and
expected
of
a
first
world
country
and
the
very
concept
of
Medicare
for
all
supports
life,
liberty
and
the
pursuit
of
happiness,
the
pursuit
of
small
businesses
to
form
and
not
fear
for
their
family's
health.
The
pursuit
of
budgets
for
school
budgets
and
county
and
local
government
budgets
to
be
free
from
those
premiums
for
their
employees
and
to
not
to
depend
on
your
employer
for
your
health,
because
health
care
shouldn't
be
an
industry.
It
should
be
a
standard
of
living
in
regards
to
number
87
on
the
agenda.
P
I
want
to
also
stand
in
solidarity
with
citizens
and
councilmen
who
are
in
support
of
the
resolution
calling
for
gun
control
measures
because
gun
violence
is
a
traumatic
medical
emergency
that
no
one
can
account
for,
and
a
person
in
a
community's
recovery
hospitals
clinics
in
a
mass
casualty
situation.
It's
so
expensive
in
resources,
time
and
mental
energy
and
medicare
for
all
can
light
in
that
at
least
some
of
those
burdens.
Thank
you
for
taking
the
support
this
vote
and
please
support
both
resolutions.
Thank.
D
E
Morning,
council
members,
my
name
is
Steve
McFarland
I'm,
an
East
Tampa
resident
I'd,
like
to
speak
to
you
today
on
favor
of
the
Medicare
for
all
resolution,
and
to
thank
the
members
who
brought
this
forward.
I
think
we
all
know
that
we
live
in
a
broken
health
care
system.
We
pay
twice
as
much
as
other
advanced
countries
and
we
have
worst
health
outcomes.
We've
actually
seen
life
expectancy
decline
in
the
u.s.
in
the
last
couple
years.
E
This
is
the
number
one
cause
of
bankruptcy
in
America
as
medical
debt
and
I.
Don't
want
to
speak
today,
kind
of
debunking
some
of
the
common
corporate
insurance
industry.
Talking
points
that
attack
Medicare
for
all
I.
Think.
We've
often
heard
that
you
know
people
like
their
insurance
that
it
would
be
disruptive
to
have
a
single-payer
system,
but
in
fact,
every
year
25
million
people
change
their
insurance
right,
whether
they're
retiring
they
get
older
than
the
age
of
26.
They
take
a
new
job.
They
get
laid
off.
E
We
also
hear
a
lot
about
a
public
option
right
that
perhaps
people
should
have
the
choice
between
a
public
program
and
a
series
of
private
for-profit
insurance
companies,
but
without
single-payer
there's
really
no
way
to
control
the
costs
that
these
sort
of
hodgepodge,
crazy
quilt
system
of
so
many
different
insurance
companies
brings
us
right.
Medicare,
as
it
exists,
has
only
two
or
three
percent
overheads.
All
right.
The
private
insurance
industry
has
something
more
like
between
13
and
20
percent.
E
So
this
would
be
a
program
that
would
reduce
the
costs
that
Americans
are
paying
in
health
insurance,
even
libertarian.
Think
tank
says
projected
over
10
years.
The
savings
of
500
billion
dollars
for
Americans,
so
I
just
want
to
speak
an
urge
you
to
pass
forward.
This
resolution
sent
a
strong
message
to
our
regression
of
the
delegation
that
healthcare
is
a
human
right.
That's
an
atrocity
that
the
most
demands
in
wealthy
country
in
the
world
now
I
can't
guarantee
health
insurance
to
all
its
citizens
right.
E
L
Council
members,
thank
you
for
having
us.
My
name
is
Brad
Hunsinger
I
am
also
here
in
support
of
Medicare
for
all
and
hoping
you
all
will
voice
your
support
as
well.
Single-Payer.
Three.
At
the
point
of
views,
everybody
in
nobody
out.
That
is
how
we
take
care
of
each
other
as
a
community.
Human
misery
should
not
be
commodified.
L
L
We've
heard
a
lot
of
statements
today
about
Community
Development
about
ending
poverty,
reducing
poverty,
equity
and
racial
harmony.
These
are
quotes
taken
from
people.
Speaking
in
support
of
other
portions
of
the
council's
agenda,
we've
heard
about
how
we
are
a
significant
medical
and
Technology
cluster
in
the
state
of
Florida,
so
we
should
lead
on
this
issue.
We
have
heard
about
a
holistic
approach
to
community
development,
we've
heard
about
bringing
multiple
entities
together
and
combining
them
for
a
common
purpose.
We
have
heard
about
equitable
prosperity
for
all.
L
We
have
heard
about
innovation
to
help
the
less
fortunate
we
have
heard
about
so
much
potential
in
this
city,
and
we
have
heard
about
a
united
front
to
do
something
from
and
transformational
that's
medicare-for-all.
We
can
do
this
every
other
country
in
the
world.
Does
this.
We
are.
We
hear
all
the
time
that
we're
the
greatest
country
in
the
world.
L
L
D
B
Morning,
Council,
my
name
is
Mike
Pettit
I'm
here
from
Tampa
Bay
extinction,
rebellion,
I
quote
the
first
step
in
solving
any
problem
is
to
name
it.
The
climate
crisis
is
an
emergency.
We
must
treat
it
like
one
allison
alster,
a
City
Councilwoman
from
Austin
Texas
after
Austin,
voted
that
there
was
a
climate
crisis
and
emergency.
There
were
forty
five
American
cities,
counties
and
townships
that
have
now
declared
climate
emergencies
and
that's
based
on
the
u.s.
B
News
&
World
Report
article
from
August
19
2009
teen
I'm,
here
to
urge
you
to
seize
the
opportunity
to
be
real
leaders
on
this
issue.
No
cities
in
Florida
have
declared
a
climate
emergency,
at
least
based
upon
my
research.
This
should
be
the
first
one.
You
need
Claire
emergency
and
take
immediate
steps
to
address
it.
B
B
We
are
also
listed
in
another
article
that
comes
out
of
an
article
that
was
published
in
the
eminent
science
journal,
Nature
as
one
of
the
nine
cities
most
likely
to
suffer
major
economic
damage
from
climate
change
because
of
intensified
storms
and
sea
level
rise
over
the
next
75
years,
or
so
you
have
an
opportunity
here
to
do
something
great.
This
isn't
a
not
an
attempt
to
frighten
anybody.
It's
an
attempt
to
mobilize
people
be
leaders
and
understand
this.
B
All
I
used
to
be
a
chief
assistant
county
attorney
in
Florida
I've
sat
through
so
many
meetings
like
this
I
can't
count,
and
everybody
that
comes
in
here
today
and
everybody
that's
spoken
and
everybody
that
will
speak
is
passionately
behind
their
issue
and
it's
the
most
important
issue
but
understand
something
this
issue,
all
those
others
don't
matter.
If
you
don't
fix
it.
So
please
declare
a
climate
move.
D
E
Name
is
wayne
shuker
I've
been
a
tampa
area
resident
for
over
25
years,
and
I'm
here
today
to
speak
about
the
climate
crisis
that
we
are
facing
decades
ago.
Scientists
from
Exxon
Mobile
showed
that
continued
drilling,
processing
and
use
of
petroleum
products
would
cause
devastating
environmental
damage.
Instead
of
sharing
this
information,
Exxon
Mobil
decided
to
cover
it
up
and
launched
a
propaganda
campaign
similar
to
that
of
big
tobacco's
campaign.
To
deny
that
cigarette
smoking
causes
cancer.
E
E
Studies
have
shown
that
Tampa's
air
quality
is
among
ism,
the
worst
in
the
state,
the
Trump
administration
and
his
cohorts
like
Rick
Scott
and
the
bribe
legislators
in
Tallahassee
are
aiding
and
abetting
in
the
killing
of
innocent
Florida
citizens
for
corporate
profit.
This
is
not
a
time
for
business.
As
usual.
Tampa
government
needs
to
step
up
and
declare
that
we
are
in
a
climate
emergency.
E
K
Good
morning
Council,
my
name
is
Warren
Whistler
I'm.
Also
a
member
of
extinction.
Rebellion
I
stand
before
you
today
is
a
climate
activists
and
concerned
resident
of
planet.
Earth
I
stand
before
you
in
perpetual
grief
for
nature
for
sentient
beings,
with
no
voice
for
younger
generations
who
will
inherit
a
dystopian
post-apocalyptic
future?
How
will
we
brace
for
the
shocks
that
are
now
baked
into
the
climate
system?
How
will
we
build
resiliency
for
communities
like
Tampa
that
are
on
the
front
lines
of
climate
chaos?
K
My
first
answer
is
to
declare
a
climate
emergency
and
take
unprecedented
action.
Based
on
that
declaration,
as
I
have
this
fleeting
moment
to
address
you,
I
can
no
longer
Minh
swear
many
Americans
live
in
constant
fear.
I've
mentioned
my
perpetual
grief
now.
I
must
confess
my
constant
fears,
based
in
scientific
understanding
and
research.
I,
want
you
to
live
in
constant
fear
of
climate
breakdown
as
well.
I
hope
that
in
this
sphere,
you
will
act
upon
it
for
a
systemic
change.
What
fears
will
reside
with
you
today?
K
K
Global
average
temperatures
are
raised,
1
degrees
C
within
weeks
due
to
loss
of
global
dimming,
also
known
as
aerosol
masking
effect.
Arctic
sea
ice
recedes
in
exponential
speed,
vanishing,
never
to
return.
Methane
is
released
in
vast
amounts
as
sea
ice
and
permafrost
disappear.
Further.
Raising
global
average
temperatures
collapse
of
energy
infrastructure
causes
many
nuclear
facilities
to
fail.
Unleashing
multiple
Fukushima
events,
poisoning
air
earth
and
water
with
deadly
levels
of
radiation.
K
Human
population
is
reduced
to
under
1
billion.
The
last
survivors
forage
hunt,
scrape
and
kill
each
other
for
what
sustenance
remains
by
2100
all
of
humanity
and
most
species
are
extinguished.
Life
on
planet
Earth
is
effectively
neutralized.
This
is
mass
suicide,
declare
a
climate
emergency
now
so
that
you
can
say
to
younger
generations
that
you
did
something
to
slow
this
disaster.
Time
is
short.
T
Hello,
sorry,
good
morning,
City
Council
I'm
here
before
you
all
today,
as
a
member
of
extinction
rebellion
but
more
importantly,
my
name
is
John,
see
Kate,
sorry,
but,
more
importantly,
as
a
mother
and
a
concerned,
citizen
I
have
come
here
to
urge
you
City
Council,
to
issue
a
climate
emergency
for
the
city
of
Tampa.
We
have
sent
out
letters
to
both
our
mayor,
Jane,
caster
and
state
representative
Cathy,
castor,
asking
them
to
do
the
same.
T
Our
words
have
fallen
on
deaf
ears,
so
now
we
ask
you
to
be
the
leaders
and
to
lead
the
city
of
Tampa
away
from
the
mass
human
kissed
at
catastrophe.
That
is
headed
our
way,
I'm
not
going
to
talk
about
the
science
today.
Why
should
I?
The
science
has
been
there
for
over
50
years
and
for
the
last
50
years
it's
been
denied
and
it
has
been
debated.
So
instead
I'm
going
to
talk
to
you
about
why
this
is
so
important
to
me,
their
name
is
Joshua
deja
faith
and
Elora.
T
The
climate
breakdown
is
standing
in
their
way.
My
son
Joshua
is
away
serving
this
country
and
yet
I
have
to
wonder.
Is
there
a
country
for
him
to
come
home
to
my
daughter,
Dasia
graduated
last
year
with
honors
now
I
watch
her
worry
if
she
has
a
future
ahead
of
her.
My
daughter
faith
is
a
junior
and
graduates.
Next
year
each
morning
I
watched
her
fight
with
herself
to
go
to
school.
Is
she
wasting
her
time
that
she
has
left
learning
things
that
no
longer
hold
any
value?
T
T
T
T
J
L
Everyone,
my
name,
is
Bo
Robicheaux,
it's
great
to
see
you
all
this
morning.
There
are
a
lot
of
experiences.
Everyone
in
Tampa
shares
one
of
those
common
experiences.
Getting
sick,
I
mean
illness,
happens
right,
but
how
we
recover
from
those
illnesses
depends
mostly
on
the
money
we
make
and
the
color
of
our
skin
evidence
showing
a
racial
health
gap
between
black
brown
and
indigenous
and
Americans
on
the
one
hand
and
white
Americans
on
the
other
is
decades
old
and
the
white
folks
are
doing
notice,
they'll
be
noticeably
better
than
everyone
else.
L
Securing
the
freedom
of
guaranteed
health
care
is
a
large
step
towards
ending
the
segregated
experience.
I
would
ask
the
council
to
support
Medicare
for
all
so
that
when
the
people
at
Tampa
gets
sick,
they
know
they
are
free
from
the
financial
ruin
that
often
accompanies
illness
by
supporting
meant
by
supporting
Medicare
for
all.
The
council
makes
a
statement
that
they
are
willing
to
stand
in
support
of
a
bright
multiracial
future
for
Tampa
and
put
it
into
segregated
outcomes
by
supporting
Medicare
for
all
the
council
mm.
L
Excuse
me,
by
supporting
Medicare
for
all
the
council's
stand
against
the
greedy
greedy
drug
manufacturers,
who
arbitrarily
forced
the
price
of
medicine
to
skyrocket
while
they
push
opioids
onto
our
street.
As
police
captain
stated
earlier,
I
asked
you
to
vote
with
vision,
to
vote
for
campus
dignity
and
to
help
close
close
our
racial
divides
as
we
move
ahead
more
United
than
about
ever
before.
I.
Ask
you
to
vote
in
favor
of
supporting
Medicare
for
all.
Thank
you.
T
John
Moll
I'm,
a
water
harvester
homesteader
up
in
South
Seminole
Heights
I
have
been
trying
to
get
a
mitigation
credit
because
I've
stopped
all
the
stormwater
runoff
from
my
property.
Some
people
disagree
with
me
and
I
was
just
handed
a
few
minutes
ago.
A
currently
a
memorandum,
gen
McLean,
was
told
to
appear
here,
but
I
didn't
see
her
anywhere.
Maybe
you
did
she.
T
Some
people
are
told
to
appear
and
discuss
other
people
just
told
to
appear,
but
still
they
don't
appearance
anyways.
Just
this
thing
that
I
just
got
handed
I,
don't
know
what
the
Elmo's
working,
but
it
says
that
to
expedite
matters,
the
staff
is
conducting
an
engineering
review
of
the
property.
I
think
that's
my
property,
the
results
of
which
we
provided
to
Council
I'm,
looking
forward
to
seeing
that
conclusion,
also
I
like
for
them
to
tell
me
just
how
much
stormwater
is
coming
off
of
my
property.
T
How
much
is
come
on
in
the
last
year,
for
my
observation
is
zero.
The
memorandum
again
Jayne
MacLean
didn't
she
appeared
because
we
looked
at
to
say
anything
to
mr.
dinkler,
the
questionnaire
and
apparently
in
her
response.
That
said,
you
can
amend
this
stormwater
ordinance
if
you
want
to
and
I
think
what
really
should
be
amended
is
that
set
of
may
be
seems
to
be
at
the
discretion
again
McLean
whether
she
gives
it
or
not
to
be
placed
to
me
with
a
shower
a
must.
T
So
hopefully,
when
this
report
comes
back
when
it
determines
I'm
a
PE
that
I
hadn't
zero
in
stormwater
runoff
from
my
property
that
I
do
get
100
percent
mitigation
credit,
not
just
maybe
and
I'm
thankful.
That
now
it
looks
like
the
burden
has
been
shifted
to
the
city.
To
say
whether
a
homesteader
is
reducing,
reducing
the
stormwater
from
their
property.
It
wasn't
I
had
to
go
to
the
park
that
lead.
B
Again,
miss
mcclain
did
submit
a
report
and
it
was
our
understanding,
counsel,
had
no
questions
and
didn't
require
that
she
appear.
I
also
want
to
note
that
miss
mcclain
provided
her
written
report
to
mr.
moles
attorneys
yesterday,
and
they
responded
as
well
with
a
lengthy
letter.
So
there
has
been
correspondence
back
and
forth
with
our
department
and
his
attorneys
and
in
an
attempt
to
resolve
this
matter.
B
D
You
ma'am,
we
appreciate
it
and
I
know.
Councilman
is
calcio.
A
lot
of
folks
spoke
on
the
on
a
resolution
that
you've
put
forward.
You
told
me
you
wanted
to
speak
briefly
because
for
the
folks
who
are
here
for
a
council
of
ministers
resolution,
that's
gonna
be
voted
on
towards
the
end,
so
I
think
our
colleague
just
wanted
to
say
something
so
go
ahead.
Sir.
Well.
A
Thank
you
for
all
the
comments
and
everyone
that
came
out
here
to
speak,
but
no
one
should
have
to
file
bankruptcy
because
of
medical
bills,
and
when
we
say
health
care
is
a
human
right.
You
couldn't
couldn't
have
a
more
true
statement.
Why
is
it
that
in
2019
in
the
United
States,
we
still
have
this
discussion
where
people
are
fighting
just
to
get
the
health
care
that
they
need
at
an
affordable
rate
or
just
to
be
taken
care
of
people?
A
Don't
choose
to
get
sick
people
don't
choose
to
get
cancer
and
other
things
that
complicate
the
path
and
life
people
shouldn't
have
to
burn
through
their
401
K
just
to
pay
these
medical
bills,
we
need
to
take
care
of
each
other
as
as
human
beings,
as
you
know,
as
something
that
is
a
part
of
life.
Look
at
how
much
we
spend
on
defense
for
this
country.
Look
how
much
money
is
wasted
in
other
areas,
yet
we
don't
focus
on
the
basic
necessities
that
the
people
need.
A
A
F
Q
D
There
you
go:
okay,
I-I've,
seen;
okay,
very
okay
and
I.
Miss.
D
D
D
I
Today,
I
don't
know
the
numbers,
the
city
used
to
do
their
own
purchasing
direct
to
fix
their
own
equipment
and
whatever
reason
they
change
the
mancom,
which
is
another
company
in
Virginia,
based
on
the
facts
that
I
do
not
have
I,
don't
know
what
a
battery
costs
then
compared
to
with
a
battery
costs.
Today
they
were
buying
the
same
equipment
that
we
were
buying
and
they're
doing
a
cheaper
to
me,
that's
impossible
to
do
because
we're
supposed
to
be
at
no
profit
to
no
one.
They
have
to
read
profit
aside
from
that.
I
I
D
H
Meruna
I
appreciate
you
bringing
bringing
this
up
that
you
all
had
a
little
bit
of
history
on
this
item.
I.
Wasn't
that
familiar
with
it
I
see
on
the
cover
sheet.
It
says
that
the
initial
award
period
expires
in
December
of
this
year,
2019
so
I
guess
we'll
have
an
opportunity
between
now
and
then
to
revisit
the
contract.
The
underlying
contract,
this
particular
this
particular
item
speaks
to
the
provision
of
additional
expenditures
for
two
million
dollars.
H
I
guess
just
keep
it
going,
which
I
don't
know
if
we
didn't
keep
it
going,
I
don't
know
if
we're
in
a
position
to
be
able
to
to
scramble
and
fix
it
and
I'm,
not
being
critical.
Your
comments
at
all
I
just
I'm,
just
saying
from
a
practical
perspective,
this
is
probably
more
of
a
of
a
short
term.
I
mean
it's
a
lot
of
money,
but
it's
probably
more
in
terms
of
a
short-term
fix
just
to
keep.
H
I
Works,
thank
you
very
much
and
if
I
recall
also
doing
the
discussion
a
couple
years
ago,
they
said
that
they
couldn't
deliver
this
stuff
quicker
and
faster
and
be
more
efficiently.
I,
don't
know
that
factual
either.
When
you
have
your
vendors
here
and
you
have
supposedly
good
people
working
for
the
city,
then
it
should
be
a
no-brainer
that,
if
you're
doing
it,
how
can
you
give
it
to
somebody
at
no
rent
for
the
building
and
they
were
gonna,
make
what
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
me.
I
K
I
Wasn't
you
know
right
or
wrong?
I,
don't
know
when
I'm
apprehensive
to
the
fact
that
when
you
look
at
these
things,
so
what
happened
here
there
was
somebody
swiping,
something
that's
what
happened
and
they
shut
it
down
and
put
it
in
I.
Don't
know,
I,
don't
know
anything.
So
that's
why
I
voted
against
it
last
time.
That's
what
I!
Don't
there
are
six
other
minds
here.
You
vote
the
way
you
want
I
have

No

H
H
I
That
means
all
the
items
that
were
in
inventory
what
this
cost
was
through
the
city
prior
to
this,
what
the
cost
is
now
because
they've
got
to
be
buying
from
Saint
purveyors.
We
were
from
another
whatever
manufacturing,
whatever
we
needed
to
repair
whatever
we
wanted
to
advance,
they
got
to
buy
from
st.
Rivera
so
or
like
with
a
battery
the
battery.
Mr.
shurberg,
those.
D
O
E
It
can
be
written
a
written
report.
It
may
make
things
substantially
shorter.
If
council
wishes
to
still
have
discussion,
I
just
want
to
bring
to
council's
attention
November
21st.
You
have
1
2
3
4
5
staff
reports
and
those
are
5
minutes.
If
council
wishes
to
make
it
longer
its
councils
prerogative.
D
H
O
I
If
you
were
paying
for
it
and
I
know
the
change,
that's
right.
This
is
your
year,
but
I
just
don't
understand
how
that
can
work,
logistically,
that
a
private
company
can
come
in
and
run
something
for
a
profit
when
you
got
to
give
you
give
them
free
rent
which
Army
is
against
the
law.
When
we
rent
something
somebody's
pain,
we
pay.
If
we
rent
a
building,
we
pay
to
rent
the
building.
So
now
they
come
in.
Take
the
building.
That's
the
deal
that
the
city
made
it's
a
bad
deal.
I
Just
like
a
stadium
is
a
bad
deal.
How
the
work
can
you
give
some
private
entity
free
rent?
They
say:
well,
it's
less
expensive.
Now,
of
course
it
is
you
give
free
rent,
take
I'm
stupid,
so
I
mean
I.
Don't
understand
that
but
I
like
the
see,
because
I've
done
some,
my
own
cursory
review
I've
been
to
a
couple
places
that
we
used
to
buy
from
and
guess
what
the
Saint
purveyor
providing
them
the
safe
service.
I
D
Thank
you,
sir.
Anyone
else.
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
by
Councilman
didn't
filter
who
seconded
that
we
have
second
but
councilman
Carlson,
all
in
favor
any
opposed.
Okay.
Thank
you
very
much
sure.
Thank
you,
sir.
Next,
we
move
onward
to
item
number
77.
Does
anyone
have
any
questions
or
shall
we
move
that
resume?
That's
related
number
76.
D
D
Mr.
Shelby,
maybe
we
move
all
three
at
the
same
time.
Yes,
sir
okay,
we
have
a
motion
by
Councilman
dude
for
a
second
but
councilman
met
Miranda,
that's
all
right,
all
in
favor
any
opposed.
Okay!
Thank
you!
So
much!
Okay!
Now,
let's
see
here,
let
me
see
what
we're
having
are
there
any
requests
from
the.
J
D
So
we
are
finished
with
items
that
would
require
staff.
Appearance
am
I
correct,
it
would
appear
I'm,
correct.
Okay,
are
there
any
requests
by
the
public
for
reconsideration
of
legislative
matters?
Then
there
being
apparently
none.
We
will
move
onward
to
reports
to
committee
reports,
councilman,
Citro,
plane,
sequencer.
D
R
E
E
No
we're
not
hey,
and
that
being
the
case,
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
discuss
this
with
members
of
the
legal
department
to
confirm
what
what
I
believe
is
the
case,
and
this
is
something
with
regard
to
public
events.
That
generally,
the
new
members
of
counsel
should
be
aware
of
in
case
you're.
Not
the
public
events
permits
that
appear
on
the
agenda.
Follow
the
city
code,
specifically
in
terms
of
meeting
certain
requirements.
E
These
are
placed
on
the
agenda
for
the
purpose
of
informing
the
City
Council
and
the
public
of
the
existence
of
these
permits
and
who
is
requesting
them
with
regard
to
the
actual
discretion
that
you
have
as
to
choose
one
person
or
entity
over
another
council
does
not
have
that
discretion.
What
you
have
before
you
is
purely
a
ministerial
matter,
and
as
as
such,
it
is
my
professional
advice
that
you
are
required
to
vote,
as
there
is
no
basis
for
a
conflict,
so
I
can't
recuse
myself.
No
sir
and
I
apologize
so
I
think
well.
D
D
Do
we
we
have
a
motion
by
comes
when
Dean
felt
or
a
second
may
come
in
this
calcio,
all
in
favor
any
opposed?
Yes,
sir
next
comes
me:

fell

the
public
works.
Yes,.
