Last
year
we
had
two
amazing
sponsors,
and
this
year
they
actually
renewed
their
sponsorship.
So
today,
I
would
like
to
acknowledge
our
sponsors.

years
from
Furman
Chevrolet,
we

Hospital
North
Pinellas.
We
have
Patricia
Williams,

is
the
president
and
CEO
without
their
contributions
to
us.
We
wouldn't
be
able
to
put
these

from
February

Hi
I'm
Allen

This
is
very
nice
award
to

on
behalf
of
all
of
our
Furman
automotive

North
Pinellas
County,
our
BMW
many
Ford,
Mazda
and
Chevy
dealerships,
we're
very
excited
to
be

the
Tarpon
Springs
community.
Thank
you
very
much.
G
We
are
so
proud
to
be
part
of
this
community,
and
it's
just
events
like
these.
That
makes
this
a
very,
very
special
community
and
we
are
just
very
honored
to
partner
with
you
and
support
a
wonderful

So

A
H
Just
like
to
say,
I
want
to
thank
the
recreation
department
for
this
job
that
they've
been
doing
all
these
years.
This
is
not
only
a
wonderful
and
fun
event,
but
it
brings
our
community
together
and
Furman
I
think
started
at
2
3
years
ago
with
their
support
and
Florida
Hospital.
We
couldn't
do
it
without
you,
so
thank
you
very
much.

Smith
mr.
liquors

all
the
employees

they
work

on
our
wastewater
treatment

which

of
the
best
in
the
area,
they're
doing
an
excellent
job,
and
this
is
the
second
time
in
the
role
that
we
were
receiving.
This
award
and
I
would
like
to
thank
them
and
congratulating
for
the

2018
focus
in

seminar,
ceders
event
held
in
Haines
City
Florida,
but
as
an
it
on
6th
day
of
February
2018.
A
I
I
And
also
Rob
Marcin
Sekar
chief
wastewater
plant
operator
Rob,
if
you
could
also
please
Stan
I,
know
who's
planning
to
make
it
tonight
who
was
a
big
part
of
getting
this
award
as
Frank
Fulghum,
our
wastewater
division
manager,
but
he
was
unable
to
attend.
I
just
want
to
say,
though,
that
this
team,
along
with
our
dedicated
operators,
is
what
makes
it
happen,
but
we
couldn't
do
it
without
the
support
of
our
leadership.
All
of
you
up
here
that
continuously
give
us
good
direction
and
support
when
we
need
to
get
approvals
for
things
to
move
forward.
I
As
the
mayor
mentioned,
this
is
about
an
outstanding
commitment
to
excellence,
dedicated
professionalism
and
an
impeccable
history
of
record-keeping.
Compliance
I'd
like
to
to
state
that
the
wastewater
plant
operates
365
days
a
year,
24
hours
per
day,
so
I
applaud
the
commitment,
pride
and
capabilities
of
our
operators
and
our
leadership
team
and
I.
Thank
you
all
very
much.
J
You
I
just
want
to
say
we're
always
proud
of
all
of
our
employees,
but
whenever
a
division
puts
Tarpon
Springs
on
the
map
and
gets
an
award,
that's
something
extra
special.
So
thank
you
for
all
your
men,
women
for
all
the
hard
work
you
do
both
at
the
wastewater
and
a
quarter
water
plant
as
well.
Thank.
A
H
K
You
and
good
evening,
mayor
and
councilmembers,
my
name
is
Mary
Cheryl
I
am
with
peace
for
tarpon,
but
I
am
honored
tonight
to
be
here
to
talk
about
filling
in
at
the
New
York
City's
thrive,
mental
health
conference
last
year,
councilmember
Sieber
was
invited
and
attended
their
inaugural
year
of
this
conference,
and
she
was
also
asked
to
speak
and
be
on
a
panel.
So
I
think
that
was
pretty
special
for
tarpon
springs.
K
K
It's
also
as
a
nation
we're
going
to
have
to
figure
out
a
way
to
bring
it
to
our
nation,
but
it
is
going
to
start
in
communities
just
like
this.
One
piece
for
tarpon
has
been
raising
awareness
to
all
of
the
problems
personal
and
in
the
community,
and
if
you
scratch
the
surface
you're
going
to
find
unresolved
trauma
in
all
of
those
instances,
and
until
we
address
the
unresolved
trauma,
it's
almost
like
we're
mopping
up
the
sink
of
the
overflowing.
K
K
The
first
lady
of
New,
York
City,
chirlane
McKay,
just
recently
declared
New
York
City,
her
city
and
mental
health
as
her
main
priority,
and
almost
immediately.
She
realized
that
it
isn't
just
one
city,
it's
all
the
cities
and
she
invited
all
of
the
cities
to
come
and
join
in
a
conference.
These
these
programs
to
learn
from
each
other
to
have
our
join
voices,
magnified
and
heard
on
a
national
level,
but
New
York
has
a
lot
more
resources
than
a
lot
of
the
other
cities.
K
K
D
L
Thank
you,
Mary
I'm,
Robin,
Sanger
and
I'm,
the
founding
director
of
peace
for
tarpon
from
time
to
time,
I
come
and
give
you
all
updates
about
what
we're
doing,
and
it's
about
that
time
again.
So
here
we
are,
as
you
know,
two
years
ago
we
received
a
grant
through
the
Robert
Wood
Johnson
Foundation
and
the
Health
Federation,
or
the
California
Endowment
that
was
administered
by
the
health
Federation
of
Philadelphia.
They
gave
tarpon
springs.
It
was
an
invitation-only
grant
and
of
24
communities
across
the
United.
L
L
If
you
look
at
the
map
of
the
mark
communities,
it's
a
map
of
the
United
States
and
you'll,
see
Sonoma
County,
San
Diego,
the
state
of
Alaska,
the
state
of
Wisconsin,
the
state
of
Illinois
Albany,
New,
York,
Philadelphia
Boston,
and
on
the
state
of
Florida
colored
and
in
purple.
It
just
says:
tarpon
springs
yay.
L
So
that's
a
really
it's
a
wonderful
thing.
It's
a
great
way
for
us
to
really
be
known
and
I
tell
you
it,
whereas
we're
a
little
fish,
but
but
we
are
very,
very
well
known,
which
is
wonderful,
so
our
grant
just
ended
and
we
made
a
conscious
decision
when
we
received
the
grant
that
we
wanted
to
keep
two
tracks
going
so
piece
for
tarpon
wasn't
going
to
be
just
about
the
grant.
We
wanted
to
keep
the
things
that
we
already
had
in
place
and
we're
planning
kind
of
going
along
as
well.
L
So
I
want
to
share
a
couple
of
those
updates
with
you,
two
of
the
most
exciting
things
that
happened
was
the
University
of
Florida
University
of
Florida
School
of
Public
Health.
Professor
dr.
Mark
Hart
is
a
professor
for
public
health
communications.
He
teaches
master's
level
classes
at
University
of
Florida
and
for
the
past
two
semesters.
L
The
subject
of
his
master's
class
has
been
piece
for
tarpon,
which
means
that
the
students
learn
how
to
create
active
marketing
campaigns
for
a
real
public
health
issue
that
are
actually
going
to
be
used
by
the
people
that
they're
creating
it.
For
so,
the
first
class
were
thirty
masters
level
students
they
created
social
media
accounts,
infographics,
PSAs
and
different
things,
and
this
last
semester
was
also
peace
for
tarpon
was
the
subject
and
once
again
were
the
recipient
of
some
fabulous.
L
These
students
are
just
brilliant,
some
wonderful
materials
that
they
have
been
creating
University
of
Florida
has
also
decided,
because
of
peace
for
tarpon
to
actually
create
curricula
for
trauma-informed,
and
so
this
classes
are
being
started.
We've
been
part
of
the
syllabus
process
and
that's
a
pretty
big
deal
as
well.
St.
Pete
College
we're
also
partnering
with
them
their
wonderful
community
partners,
but
they
also
have
now
an
online
course
through
their
corporate
division
of
trauma-informed
in
resilient
communities.
So
the
colleges
are
actually
creating
courses
inspired
by
piece
for
tarpon.
L
That's
something
we
can
also
be
proud
of.
So
a
couple
of
things
that
happened
just
recently
one
was:
there
are
other
communities
that
are
interested
in
following
our
model.
One
of
them
is
Orange.
County
I
was
invited
to
present
to
the
Orange
County
Department
of
Health
community
health
improvement
board,
which
had
elected
officials
from
the
county
from
the
city
of
Orlando,
the
Department
of
Health,
just
a
very
jam-packed
room,
full
of
really
movers
and
shakers.
So
it's
kind
of
cool
that
Orlando
is
now
thinking
of
becoming
piece
for
Orlando.
L
L
We've
had
the
final,
the
reason
that
I
could
not
really
wanted
to
go
to
New,
York,
City
and
I
was
so
happy
that
Mary
could
go,
but
the
reason
that
I
couldn't
go
to
New
York
City
to
the
mayor's
thrive
conference
was
that
was
the
same
date
that
we
had
the
final
convening
of
the
Marke
communities
in
Philadelphia.
So
that's
where
we
were
that's
professor
Hart
to
my
right.
There's
me
dr.
L
Andrea
blanch,
who
presented
before
this
board
in
2010
when
we
first
brought
the
idea
of
becoming
a
trauma-informed
community
to
the
city
of
Tarpon,
Springs
Denise
used
Conlan,
who
is
with
the
Pinellas
sex
offender,
re-entry
coalition
and
Wendy,
settle
the
check.
Who
was
our
program
manager
for
the
Marc
grant.
L
That's
Denise
in
front
of
a
poster
that
we
created.
We
used
our
symbol
of
the
red
mangrove
and
of
all
the
posters
that
were
there
from
the
other
13
communities.
Ours
was
the
best
looking.
It
was
fabulous
and
I'm,
not
just
saying
that
it
really
was-
and
here
you
see
some
of
the
other
posters
in
the
in
the
presentation
area
and
there
you
see
Wendy
the
red
mangrove.
Also,
the
health
Federation
of
Philadelphia
also
created
a
marketing
piece
using
the
red
mangrove.
L
So
peace
for
Gainesville
was
second,
then
Crawford,
County
Pennsylvania
came
to
the
table
and
said
that
they
would
like
to
be
peace
for
Crawford
County.
Crawford
County
is
a
big
rural
area
in
Pennsylvania
northern
Pennsylvania.
It
has
a
couple
of
towns
in
it.
Maybe
15,000
people
in
a
large
rural
area.
They
wanted
to
start
out
as
peace
for
what
is
the
name
of
their
town,
Meadville
peace
from
evil,
but
then
the
rest
of
the
county
and
some
of
the
other
cities
caught
wind
of
it,
and
they
said
we
want
to
be
part
of
this.
L
So
now
it's
peace
for
Crawford,
County
Pennsylvania.
This
also
kind
of
expanded,
our
thinking
as
to
what
community
means
can
it
be
a
whole
section
of
the
state
probably
and
the
next
piece
for
the
Big
Bend,
and
this
was
also
kind
of
startling.
The
Big
Bend
is
the
region
in
Tallahassee
eight-county
region
and
it's
actually
a
judicial
circuit
and
they
decided
that
they
wanted
to
be
peace
for
the
Big
Bend.
L
This
also
kind
of
expanded
my
mind:
how
can
a
Judicial
Circuit
be
a
piece
for
community,
but
actually,
when
I
asked
them,
they
said
we
are
a
community,
that's
how
we
think
of
ourselves.
So
as
these
other
communities
are
coming
on
board,
they
each
have
a
slightly
different
form,
a
slightly
different
way
that
they're
moving
forward
but
were
joined
by
actually
this
piece
for
Communities
movement,
which
tarpon
springs
began.
L
You
see
some
of
the
folks
who
are
there.
We
had
the
fellow
with
the
khaki
pants
and
the
blue
shirt
and
bottom
right
row
is
that
Gibson
he's
a
gubernatorial
appointees
from
Tallahassee.
He
worked
for
governor
Scott.
He
brought
his
staff
with
him,
and
one
of
the
things
that's
interesting
is
zach
is
now
saying
the
state
of
florida
has
a
model
piece
for
tarpon
can
be
a
model
for
the
state
of
florida.
L
So
at
this
gathering
one
of
the
things
that
came
out
of
it
is
why
not
have
a
piece
for
florida
and
we
told
pennsylvania
they
could
be
second
after
piece
for
florida.
Then
they
could
be
piece
for
Pennsylvania
once
they
grew
their
movement,
a
little
more
so,
but
we've
had
interest
from
Palm
Beach,
County,
port,
st.
Lucie,
Hillsborough
County,
Pinellas,
County,
st.
Petersburg
and
all
throughout
Florida.
So
we
can
definitely
see
this
creation
of
a
piece
for
Florida
movement.
Coming.
We
had
Judge
Lynn
Tepper
circuit
six
court
judge.
Was
there
dr.
L
Kevin
Sharon
who's,
the
director
of
the
Orange
County
Department
of
Health?
Was
there
you
see
our
Commissioner
Seaver
there
and
I
think
this
is
what
everyone's
giving
the
peace
signs
at
this
point,
and
it
was
it's
like
for
an
all-day
meeting
when
you
leave
the
meeting
and
everyone's
more
energized
and
when
they
start
that's
what
we
call
a
really
good
indicator.
So
that's
what
this
day
was
like:
the
energy
was
palpable.
It
was
fantastic
and
those
are
just
a
few
of
our
updates.
I
don't
want
to
push
the
river.
L
It
looks
like
you'll
have
a
lot
of
things
to
discuss
tonight
and
thank
you
so
much
for
being
a
great
partner,
the
city
of
Tarpon
Springs
is
is,
is
really
we're
lucky
to
have
each
other
to
be
working
together
and
Commissioner.
Khare
look
forward
to
speaking
with
you
appreciate
you
reaching
out
to
us
too,
so
we
can
share
understanding
any
community
member,
any
audience
member
any
of
the
commissioners.
L
Anybody
who's
interested
in
learning,
more
about
peace
for
tarpon
my
office
is
a
place
called
eco
bean,
which
is
a
coffee
shop
and
sometimes
I
can
be
found
there.
But
if
you
give
me
a
call
be
happy
to
meet
anybody,
there
talk
to
them
about
peace
for
tarpon
and
see
how
you
can
get
involved.
What
makes
us
different
is
that
we're
were
resident
involved,
it's
not
just
agencies
and
providers
and
and
it's
its
residents
that
really
are
our
Juice.
How
many
of
y'all
know
about
peace
for
tarpon
raise
your
hand?
L
A
L
A
L
Great
joy,
we
know
that
we
have
to
really
work
with
kids
to
stop
generational
violence.
We
have
to
make
the
kids
experience
less
trauma,
we're
working
to
do
that.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
tomorrow,
night
at
the
Shepherd
Center
we're
hosting
a
training
with
Sun
Coast
Sun
Coast
is
a
very
large
mental
health
provider
in
Pinellas
County
we're
hosting
a
training
called
safe
from
5:00
to
7:00
p.m.
at
the
Shepherd
Center,
it's
open
to
anyone
in
the
community
and
it's
about
how
to
keep
children
safe
from
sexual
abuse.
What
are
the
facts?
L
What
are
the
myths,
and
it
seems
that
whenever
we
get
a
give
a
presentation,
sadly
there's
something
in
the
news
that
relates
to
that,
and
now
we
have
dr.
Jerry
Nasser
and
this
whole
Olympic
thing
that's
come
up,
but
this
is
a
very
real
problem
in
our
community,
but
if
we
don't
start
to
reduce
those
things
that
happen
to
children,
we'll
never
be
able
to
create
better
futures
for
them.
So
that's
just
one
small
way:
Thank.
L
We
we
meet
once
a
month.
Sometimes
we
meet
in
the
safety
building
for
the
foreseeable
future.
We're
going
to
be
meeting
at
the
city
hall
conference
room
on
the
second
floor,
it's
the
last
Friday
of
the
month.
The
meetings
are
open,
anybody's,
welcome
to
come
and
see
who's
at
the
table.
We
don't
speak
in
acronyms
and
we
don't
speak
in
PhDs
and
you're
the
masters
this
and
that
it's
just
we're
all
people
we're
all
in
this
together.
So
it's
a
strong
community
focus.
L
It's
also
very
energizing,
they're,
really
great
meeting
so
hope
to
see
some
of
y'all
there.
It's
from
9:00
to
10:30,
so
it'll,
be
this
Friday.
Actually
from
9:00
to
10:30
and
I
passed
out
to
Mary.
Did
you
pass
the
rest
of
those
out?
She
has
a
couple
extras.
This
is
an
article
that
appeared
very
nice
shout
out.
It's
called
healthy
and
vibrant.
A
tree
goes
in
Tarpon
because,
as
you
know,
the
city
of
Tarpon
Springs
declared
the
red
mangrove.
Our
official
City
tree
is
a
symbol
of
resilience
and
it's
a
people,
love
that
symbol.
L
H
I'm
really
happy
that
someone
was
able
to
represent
tarpon
springs
in
New
York
this
year
and
that
you
went
and
happy
to
partner
with
you
guys
and
and
I
was
excited
to
be
at
this
conference.
It
was
definitely
a
lot
of
energy
there
and
and
all
these
other
piece
were
cities
that
were
there
on
panels
and
speakers
that
were
there
and
it
is
a
movement.
So
you
can.
L
N
D
A
O
O
One
of
the
things
as
a
result
of
the
AMA
mermaid
project
was
that
part
of
that
money
had
to
be
donated
to
groups
501,
and
we
had
folks
who'd
write
a
grant
to
apply
for
these
funds.
This
is
the
charity.
Quarters
grew
from
the
Unitarian
Universalist
Church
here
in
Tarpon.
They
create
all
kinds
of
quilts
for
different
groups
and
donate
them.
They
now
have
a
machine
that
they
can
really
get
busy.
O
O
The
bike,
racks
phase,
one
I,
hope
you've
seen
those
around.
We
have
11
that
have
been
designed
now.
This
group,
the
artists,
did
not
fabricate
the
bike
racks,
they
did
do
the
designs
and
it
talks
about
five
at
the
Sponge
Docks
three
and
Kraig
Park,
one
at
the
Performing
Arts
Center
and
one
at
the
dog
park.
O
O
O
O
So
for
the
coming
year,
we'll
be
doing
the
roundabout
based
designs
and
I,
as
we
had
that
ready
to
go
and
we're
going
to
be
going
out
and
talking
to
landscape
artists.
Here
in
our
city,
art,
community,
the
city
gateway
signs,
we're
going
to
be
looking
for
designs
to
redo
the
gateways,
signs
we're
going
to
be
creating
a
mural
at
one
North
Pinellas,
and
there
will
be
phase
three
of
the
bike
rack.
This
will
be
the
final
phase,
the
last
of
the
bike
racks.
O
A
O
J
As
always,
thank
you
for
the
work
you
and
your
and
your
gonna
do.
I
have
zero
art,
talent
or
taste
for
that
matter.
So
I
depend
upon
you
all
for
these
things.
As
you
advise
us,
I've
seen
that
I've
seen
the
all
the
bike
racks
around
town,
they
they
they
they
look
great
for
now,
I
guess
for
this
year,
I
guess
I'm,
most
interested
in
your
gateway
signs
I
think
that's
very
important.
J
So
it's
important
that
we
use
this
money
or
this
place
of
public
art
and
I
will
continue,
though,
to
ask-
and
we
talked
about
it
a
year
or
two
ago-
is
the
tennis
ball,
the
some
of
it's
a
racket
ball
or
the
tennis
ball
or
behind
the
old
library
with
the
big
white
wall?
If
y'all
can
look
into
doing
something
light,
a
light
like
that
or
I
think
we
talked
about
that
a
year
or
two
ago,
but
maybe
started
playing
for
some
of
these
blank
canvases
in
town
that
needs
some
something
colorful
on
them.
O
J
H
H
P
For
the
presentation,
I'm
rather
passionate
about
tarpon,
springs
and
passionate
about
art
projects
which
I
think
you
all
know
that
I
visited
your
committee
once
it's
difficult
for
me
to
visit
all
the
time
because
it
means
hearing
today,
but
I
just
had
a
couple
questions.
If
you
could
help
me
just
understand
clarification
was
the
art
plaques
I,
see
like
there's
a
picture,
for
instance,
and
the
presentation
that
you
presented
is
that
what
the
plaque
is
going
to
look
like,
or
is
it
going
to
be
something
that's
a
little
more
that.
O
N
P
P
O
D
M
M
We
really
we
could
use
some
new
new
signs
and
some
of
the
gateways
to
our
community
so
and
then
public
art
is
just
would
be
perfect
for
those
areas
and
then
the
racquetball
courts,
yeah
I,
think
we
talked
about
that
a
couple
years
ago
of
doing
some
sort
of
sort
of
mural
on
that
or
something
so
it
you
know.
Hopefully
maybe
we
can
look
at
that
this
coming
year.
That
would
be
that
would
be
fabulous.
M
I
have
a
few
ideas
that
I've
been
trying
to
talk
to
mark
about
a
little
bit,
but
I
will
be
sending
some
I've
been
looking
to
different
cities
and
states,
actually
what
they
do
for
art.
So
I'm
gonna
send
some
of
those
ideas
tomorrow,
and
maybe
you
can
send
one
to
you.
Just
take
a
look
at
it
and
you
know
like
I'm,
not
an
artist
by
any
means.
I
couldn't
even
draw
a
statement,
a
straight
line
if
I.
Q
M
O
P
Forgot
to
mention
one
thing
too
and
I
know
the
mural
project
is
on
here
as
well,
and
one
thing
I
mentioned
I
think
you
weren't
at
your
meeting
I
think
you're
out
of
town
was
when
I
was.
There
is
looking
at
some
type
of
grant
that
we
can
do
for
the
business
owners
that,
for
instance,
we
don't,
as
a
city,
doesn't
come
through
and
pay
for
the
whole
mural
project.
O
O
No,
it's
just
that.
We
welcome
your
ideas.
You
don't
have
to
be
an
artist
to
have
creative
ideas
and
we're
trying
to
and
we're
talking
about,
the
gateways
signs.
Our
whole
committee
split
up
and
we've
been
studying,
gateways
signs
all
over
the
United
States
to
gather
some
ideas
and
put
those
out
there
as
generally
ideas,
and
so
it
won't
be
long
before
you'll
be
seeing
some
of
our
concepts
and
we'll
be
looking
for
your
feedback
as
well.
O
A
R
A
O
O
Originally,
we
were
going
to
build
10
bike
racks
and
for
$50,000
we
were
able
to
get
11
designs
and
fabricated
for
24800
need
$2,
and
then
we
put
those
out
around
the
city
but
looked
for
historic
designs
which
would
be
paid
for
the
balance
of
that
$50,000
and
then
there'll
be
the
additional
three
bike
racks
which
will
come
back
to
you
about
the
library
the
fitness
park
in
the
Sunset
Beach.
So
this
is
second
half
of
the
first
phase.
O
O
In
this
part,
we
may
change
as
far
as
selecting
the
designs
and
the
installation
sites,
we'll
look
at
item
20,
but
for
now
I'd
like
to
show
you
the
designs
that
I'd
like
you
to
consider-
and
we
will
select,
will
ask
you
to
select
six
designs
on
the
8
that
we
have
and
the
places
that
we
have
designated
our
cultural
center
of
the
community
garden.
Two
at
the
train
depot
two
at
the
small
tarpon
Avenue
parking
lot,
one
near
tarpon,
Avenue
and
one
near
the
tarpon
tavern.
O
O
O
O
O
Victorian
lace,
and
so
there
are
currently
a
couple
of
bike
racks
down
at
the
other
end
of
the
train
depot
and
in
fact,
the
other
day
when
I
was
driving
through,
they
were
just
jammed
with
bike.
People
are
climbing
over
each
other
to
get
to
their
bikes,
and
then
these
two
areas,
this
by
the
restrooms
area
and
then
Tarpon
tavern
in
that
parking
lot
area.
O
A
D
O
A
O
A

M
R
Consent
agenda
item
is
to
approve
the
project
you
can
you
can
decide
now
you
can
decide
later
say
you
want
to
look
at
it
more
and
decide
later
you
could
you
give
a
consensus
again.
You've
asked
the
art
committee
when
they
do
these
things,
to
bring
it
back
you
for
input.
So
you
know,
don't
that's
happy.
You
can
still
approve
it
into
the
special
consent
item
in
concept
and
then,
if
you
want
more
time
or
thinking
or
more
input,
you
can
always
do
the
actual.
R
H
R
A
O
H
O
A
O
T
Mike
Mike,
you
screwed
us
six
to
three
starboard,
a
view.
Excuse
me
I,
like
the
commissioner
banter
and
far
from
being
an
artist
as
anybody,
but
I
do
enjoy
the
art.
This
community
has
couple
comments.
You
know,
commissioner,
you
mentioned
the
mural
art
and
doing
a
cooperation
with
business
communities
when
I
was
in
Glasgow.
T
It
was
just
just
stunning,
but
but
that's
not
why
I
wanted
to
come
up
and
comment
where
as
much
as
the
entrance
of
Tarpon
is
important
as
inviting
people
into
our
community,
some
of
the
major
thoroughfares
coming
into
Tarpon,
the
the
properties
themselves
and
I
know
you
know,
there's
so
much.
You
can
do
as
far
as
code
enforcement
etc,
but
some
of
the
properties
actually
need
to
be
more
inviting
into
your
entrance
in
the
Tarpan.
T
You
know
I
and
I
and
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
somebody's
financial
resources
may
not
be
there
to
keep
their
properties
where
they
need
to
be,
but
some
of
them
are
actually
institutional
properties.
I'll
give
you
the
example:
the
Verizon
building,
okay,
I,
understand
that
you
know
there
there's
nothing.
That's
done
exterior
wise
to
make
that
and
that's
a
gateway
into
our
community
to
make
that
inviting
those
people
drive
into
our
community.
T
You
could
have
beautiful
entrance
signs
from
19
or
even
all
turn
19,
but
once
they
get
past
the
signs,
what
are
they
see
so
so,
let's
just
I've
thrown
that
out
there.
You
know
that
to
just
just
to
let
you
know
that,
in
addition
to
the
beautiful
art
inviting
people,
the
community,
we
also
want
to
look
at
enhancing
our
entrance
points
into
tarpon
springs,
so
I
think
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you.

The
recommendation
is
to
deny
the

and
I
just
want
to
know
it,
because
this
pertained
to
the
wastewater
treatment
plant
and
its

I
just
want
to
know
what
the
next
step
is.
I
know
the
bids
came
in
over
estimated,
so
I,
just
what's
the
next
step
to
make
sure
we
get
this
product
and
continue
to
our
award
right
that
we
got
tonight
represented
yes,.
I
Thank
you,
Paul
Smith,
Public,
Services,
Director,
so
item
number
nine.
Originally
we
were
gonna,
go
single
source
and
another
vendor
when
we
advertised
our
intent
to
do
that
said.
I
can
also
do
it
through
the
bid
process.
It
was
discovered
they
actually
couldn't
meet
our
requirements.
So
so
number
ten
to
answer
your
question
is
the
follow
on
step.
We
went
back
to
the
drawing
board
found
out
what
we
needed
most
critically
and
we've
got
that
in
front
of
you
tonight
on
number
10.
Thank.

Just

I
just
wanted
to
congratulate
the
firefighters
and
the
Union
for
coming
to
an
agreement.
We've
ratified
the
contract
and
everybody's
happy.
It
was
a
took
some
time
to
come
to
an
agreement.
They
had
many
meetings,
but
they
finally
all
agreed
come
together
and
thank
you
for
all
your
hard
work
and
please
thank
every.
You
know
everybody
for
us.
I
appreciate
it.

cents.
We've
been
negotiating
in
a
settlement
in
order
to
avoid
litigation
at
22,000
214,
and
would
you
recommend
that
that
amount
be
adopted
by
the
board.
J
J
P
Think
everyone
knows
pretty
clearly
that
I've
find
these
to
be
interesting
situations.
We've
got
two
other
applications
on
this
agenda
as
well
that
are
in
similar
situations.
I,
don't
understand
how
we
determine
I
mean.
Do
we
just
wait
for
the
applicant
to
make
a
suggestion
that
we
offer
X
amount
of
dollars
and
then
at
that
point
we
negotiate
or
mr.
P
U
Yeah
I
appreciate
your
question.
This
particular
one
is
a
little
bit
different
from
the
other
two,
the
other
two
on
Gaines
way
and
tooks
are
proceeding
under
a
policy
that
you
all
have
adopted.
This
board
adopted
at
some
point
in
the
past
I
think
it
was
in
the
2008
range
that
policy
was
largely
in
response
adopted
in
a
response
to
foreclosures
and
properties
falling
into
disrepair,
etc.
That's
when
we've
been
proceeding
under
for
a
while.
U
That
policy
accepts
certain
types
of
circumstances
which
covers
the
one
that
you're
reviewing
right
now,
which
is
number
16.
This
one
went
through
Tom
Trask,
because
it
it
was
a
straight
negotiation
to
avoid
litigation.
So
that's
all
bit
of
a
different
factual
scenario
than
the
other
two.
Okay,
thanks
thank.
A
V
V
The
main
reason
that
I
am
here
is
the
owners
of
the
property
are
quite
concerned
that
there
is
a
perception
that
they
are
not
good
property
owners.
They
inherited
a
property
that
was
in
disgusting
condition.
They
purchased
it.
They
did
due
diligence.
We
ordered
a
tarpon
springs
assessment
search
which
showed
no
code
enforcement
issues,
no
recorded
code
enforcement
violations.
V
Since
the
day
they
got
it.
They
have
been
working
to
improve
the
property
they
put
in
place,
a
live
in
person
who
would
check
on
it
every
day
they
have
cleaned
the
property,
they
have
fenced
the
property
they
have
painted
the
property
they
have
removed.
I
guess
you
would
call
them
tenants
that
they
inherited.
They
have
worked
diligently
hand-in-hand
with
the
police
department.
They
are
concerned
that
they
are
perceived
as
slum
landlords.
V
I
have
assured
them
that
that
is
not
the
case,
but
for
some
reason
they
feel
that
maybe
they
would
have
been
treated
differently
by
the
city
of
Tarpon
Springs
if
they
were
from
Tarpon,
Springs
or
even
worse.
The
statement
to
me,
Greek
I,
have
assured
them
that
that
is
not
a
problem
in
Tarpon
Springs.
They
are
ready
to
invest
a
lot
of
money
into
run-down
buildings
in
tartan
Springs,
but
now
they
are
hesitating
because
they
that
maybe
they
would
not
be
welcome.
V
The
reason
we
asked
for
a
reduction
in
the
cost
of
this
fine
was
three
or
fourfold.
We
were
being
fine
so
much
day.
While
the
eviction
process
went
through
the
court
system,
something
we
had
no
control
over,
we
evicted
one
tenant
only
to
be
told
later
by
gas,
and
it
was
the
wrong
tenant
that
he
really
meant
the
other
tenant.
So
we've
had
issues,
but
every
time
the
city
of
Tartu,
Springs,
Code
Enforcement,
has
come
to
the
people.
They
have
immediately
reacted
in
a
positive,
Pro,
City
stance.
V
V
The
only
thing
they
removed
from
ours
was
a
portion
of
the
fine.
While
the
eviction
process
went
through
the
court
system,
something
we
had
no
control
over
and
then
we
were
visited
by
a
hurricane
that
delayed
us
even
further.
Your
consideration
in
this
matter
would
be
deeply
appreciated
by
the
owners.
They're.
Just
looking
for
validation
of
what
they
have
been
doing
is
correct.
I
will
turn
you
over
to
Rami.
He
promises
to
speak
slowly
and
clearly.
C
A
W
Well,
I
been
into
this
room
actually
couple
times
and
unfortunately,
when
the
owner
had
received
the
paperwork
that
there
is
an
issue
at
that
particular
property
was
couple
of
the
tenant.
The
paperwork
we
had
received.
It
did
not
really
show.
What
do
we
need
to
do
to
cure
the
problem?
It
stated
there
is
a
problem
there
that
couple
of
the
tenants
are
not
did
not
supposed
in
that
neighborhood.
W
W
That's
less
than
30
days
after
purchasing
this
property,
I
worked
on
normal
realtor
or
property
manager
standard
of
going
to
those
tenants,
although,
as
it
was
a
very
dangerous
situation
for
me
and
I
start
receiving
a
lot
of
threats,
I
am
contacting
obviously
the
sheriff's
office,
giving
them
a
full
authority
to
trust,
pass
and
arrest
any
person
on
that
property
does
not
belong
or
have
a
valid
least
in
there.
We
didn't
know
the
tenant
deeply.
Obviously,
the
first
30
to
60
days
into
the
process
I
was
reading
too
many
times.
Don't
go
there.
W
Don't
come
here,
you
do
not
know
who
you
missing
was
and
after
I
did
some
research
I
found
out
that
this
problem
actually
has
been
existing
in
that
particular
block
or
that
particular
neighborhood
for
years
back.
It's
you
know
this
family's
been
there,
for
god
knows
how
long,
but
they
were
doing
very
bad
activities
at
that
point.
I
got
the
clear
directions
from
the
property
owner
that
does
not
live
in
a
state.
To
do
everything
I
possibly
can
do
to
get
those
tenants
out
of
there
contacting
code
enforcement
contacted
mr.
W
gas
and
obviously
because
we
aware
that
we
need
to
do
something
is
just
I
wasn't
hundred
percent
sure
what
do
I
need
to
do
and
the
bailer
work
didn't
specify
get
this
turned
out.
You
know
this
tenant
is
ready
to
get
that
tenant.
Al
therefore,
I
had
to
hire
an
outside
servicer,
to
protect
my
identity
and
to
protect
that
I'm,
the
guy
that's
gone
there
and
telling
those
people
you
need
to
go,
and
it
took
quite
some
times
for
them
to
get
into
the
proper
paperwork
unfortunate.
W
We
didn't
know
that
we
have
a
time
frame
of
two
weeks
to
file
this
eviction
till
two
and
a
half
months
later.
So
through
the
phone
calls,
that's
been
logged
on
on
all
the
county
records
yeah.
He
toured
the
city
I'm,
sorry
yeah.
We
understand
that
you
clean
the
property
with
happy
that
you
painting
the
property
would
glad
that
there
is
a
new
owner
in
place.
That's
you
know,
fixing
the
problem.
I
was
never
once
told,
but
remember
you
have
two
weeks
to
get
those
tenants
out
of
there.
W
It's
even
on
a
normal
day,
it's
very
realistic
to
evict
a
tenant
within
two
weeks
of
an
order.
So
we've
been
fine
for
about
three
months
without
even
knowing
really
what
do
we
need
to
do,
except
getting
them
out?
We
weren't
aware
of
the
time
frame
we
weren't
giving
clear
directions
that
I
need
both
of
them
out
all
my
emails
trail
between
me
and
code
enforcement.
It's
just
like
what
else
you
want
me
to
do
all
go
to
this.
Also.
W
It
just
happened
that
we
got
another
violation
in
the
month
of
July
that
I
brought
in
the
handyman
person
that
we
had
put
into
the
property
came
to
the
City
Hall.
That
violation
was
cured
right
when
we
got
the
letter.
So
when
we
came
for
the
hearing,
it
was
already
clear
that
warning
was
in
less
than
a
week
and
that's
what
I
was
told
remember
you
are
being
fined
$250
a
day
because
you
haven't
filed
eviction.
We
weren't
aware
of
that.
You
know,
there's
seven
or
eight
time
that
we
had
called.
W
We
were
in
told
that
we're
being
fined,
we
were
told
clean,
the
property
get
the
bad
tenant
out
of
there.
So
obviously
immediately
we
took
the
actions
got
hit
with
hurricane
Airman,
Pinellas
County
Court,
obviously
was
bad
dub
and
it
took
good
five
to
six
weeks,
I
believe
to
get
the
final
position
that
we
ain't
getting.
You
know
some
help
from
the
Sheriff's
Office
to
protect
me
to
go.
Take
possession
of
those
properties.
V
U
Before
you
before
you
move
on
I
want
to
make
clear
to
the
board
that
this
is
a
negotiated
settlement
between
attorney
Trask
and
the
property
owner,
and
the
property
owners
representative
I
had
note
about.
The
information
you
just
received
is
water
under
the
bridge,
so
to
speak.
Yeah
my
office
has
been
negotiating
with
property
owner.
This
is
the
amount
that
what
was
mutually
arrived
at.
We
didn't
recommend
this.
This
was
what
was
determined
between
them.
H
D
M
P
A
U
P
I'll
keep
it
going
if
that's
all
right
mayor,
just
a
quick
question.
You
mentioned
mayor
there
in
the
last
meeting
when
I
brought
up
issues
with
some
of
these
liens
being
removed
for
institutional
purposes
like
a
bank
or
a
federal
credit
union,
or
something
along
those
lines.
And
you
said
the
goal
of
the
code
enforcement
is
to
get
the
properties
back
within
the
code
and
in
line
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that's.
It
was
that
I
heard
that
correct
mr.
P
U
P
I
just
want
to
make
another
question,
because
I've
been
on
the
board
for
almost
a
year
and
I've
been
bringing
these
up
for
almost
a
year
so
and
the
mayor
brought
it
up.
A
second
time
tonight
is
that
this
is
something
that
we
need
to
redress
as
a
board,
because
it's
putting
us
in
an
awkward
situation,
I
think
overall
and
I
like
to
go
off
your
recommendations,
but
sometimes
it's
tough
for
us
as
commissioners
to
make
these
decisions.
P
P
R
We
can
do
I'm,
not
sure
you
got
remember
for
the
longest
time
that
we've
been
doing
this
and
this
board
has
been
doing
it
your
way,
the
circumstance
the
case
your
way,
what
the
effect
of
this
property
being
like
it
was
had
on
the
neighbors
and
the
neighborhood
during
the
time
you
weigh
in
what
is
the
cooperation
or
non-cooperation
you
go
in.
You
look
at
all.
You
want
to
get
it
back,
but
if
you
keep
having
people
run
up,
50
hundred
thousand
dollar
fines
and
then
do
it
for
cost
it's
not.
R
So
it's
a
fine
line.
It's
a
tough
process.
We've
we've
we've
talked
about
it
several
times.
How
do
you?
How
do
you
get
because
the
situations
are
so
different
of
what
you
do
and
what
we've
got
to
try
to
come
up
with
some?
You
know
the
formula,
you
know
what
is
the
range
of
formula
and
we
have
had
conversations
to
talk
about
that
and
bring
that
back
right.
Now,
it's
just
weighing
all
the
circumstances
and
the
city
attorney
with
input
from
cuz.
R
You
see,
there's
there's
it
when
you're
reading
the
cases
coding
for
puts
it
in
we.
You
know
we
recommend
not
a
reduction
or
or
they
talk
about
it
again.
You
well
the
circumstance,
but
we
have.
We
have
been
talking
to
the
attorney
and
we'll
continue
talking
to
try
to
bring
you
a
little
bit
of
better
process,
but
you
have
to
remember
it's
still
going
to
be
a
lot
of
factors
that
you
have
to
weigh
in.
R
A
P
X
P
You
contact
them
due
to
a
bad
address,
so
they
didn't
know
the
property
is
in
disarray
to
me,
I
think
if
you
have
the
responsibility
as
a
property
owner
to
keep
your
properties
up
capped.
So
to
me
the
fines,
light
I
think
it
we
should.
We
shouldn't
reduce
so
much
of
the
fine
for
this
property
owner
yeah.
U
If
it's
important
to
you
at
all,
I
have
no
I.
Take
no
personal
ownership
of
the
I
mean
I
ownership,
but
I
yeah.
It
doesn't
hurt
my
feelings.
If
you
don't
go
with
my
recommendation,
these
things
are
they're,
not
scientific,
to
begin
with
it's
a
bit
of
an
amorphous
process
with
standards
that
are
not
entirely.
U
You
know,
set
in
stone
and
there's
subject
to
so
many
factors.
It's
difficult
really
to
come
up
with
a
recommendation
at
all,
because
really,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
no
two
cases
are
actually
alike.
I
mean
you
have
some
with
some
similar
facts,
but
they
kind
of
stand
on
their
own
in
terms
of
the
violation
at
issue,
the
efforts
of
the
owner
or
the
predecessor
to
address
those
issues.
The
financial
circumstances
at
issue
I
mean
there's
just
so
much
that
goes
into
it.
So
you
know
to
the
extent
that
the
recommendations
are
inconsistent.
U
U
You
know
in
looking
through
my
file
on
this
and
I.
Think
I've
said
this
before
I
talked
to
iacovone
periodically
and
every
time
I
talk
to
him.
I
say
you
know,
hope
your
family
as
well,
and
thanks
again
for
this
policy,
it's
really
hard
to
it's
really
hard
to
administer,
but
my
file
shows
it
in
2012.
He
came
to
the
board
and
suggested
several
alternatives
to
amend
the
policy,
one
of
which
was
to
take
you
all
out
of
it
altogether.
U
Obviously,
that
didn't
pass
right,
so
I'm
certainly
going
to
give
you
record
a
recommendation
from
me
that
takes
you
out
of
this
process,
because
I
think
my
legal
opinion,
that
is,
that
it's
bad
for
you
guys
to
be
involved
in
this
process
is
board.
I
think
this
is
I
think
this
is
and
should
be
an
administrative
policy
and
function,
but
something
I'll
give
you
options
as
to
what
you
can
and
can't
do:
okay,
but
I,
but
I
was
in
seeing
on
the
file.
My
very
strong
feeling
has
in
it.
H
A
U
You,
mr.
mayor
again,
1147
tooks
Road
you've
seen
my
report.
We
have
violations
dating
in
16
and
17
on
a
property
owned
by
JP
Morgan
Chase
Bank.
We
have
principal
amount
of
about
thirty,
two
thousand
plus
six
hundred
and
seventy
five
and
thirty
one
cents
in
the
non
negotiable
utility
lien.
The
facts
are
we
had
some
violations
that
we
felt.
U
Imposts
and
life
safety
conditions
at
the
property.
They
were
remediated
in
late
2016,
but
reoccurred
in
2017.
The
property
ultimately
needed
to
be
it
was
demolished.
The
code
enforcement
department
I
do
wish
to
point
out
feel
strongly
about
this
case
that
no
reduction
should
be
offered
by
the
board
based
on
the
bank's
dilatory
conduct
and
addressing
these
violations
and
their
speed
or
lack
thereof
in
reacting
to
them
and
getting
the
property
and
keeping
their
property
in
compliance.
U
Y
P
A
R
I
You
Paul
Smith
Public,
Services
Director.
This
is
something
the
city
manager
looks
for
us
to
do,
which
is
look
for
grant
opportunities.
This
helps
us
stretch
our
budgets
earlier.
This
particular
grant
were
asking
your
authorization
tonight,
for
the
city
manager
to
sign
involves
a
state
grant
for
cleaning
our
wastewater
treatment
plant
basins.
What's
good
about
this
is
this
is
a
planned
activity
that
we
would
have
already
done.
So
this
is
really
a
way
to
leverage
our
dollars
further,
and
the
grant
amount
is
thirty,
seven
thousand
one
hundred
and
twenty
five
dollars.
I
A
A
A
A
M
A
P
A
R
You've
seen
this
just
recently
where
you
approve
this:
is
the
land
we're
talking
about
between
North
Avenue
and
distant
as
you
enter
the
Union
Academy
neighborhood
from
llk.
As
you
do
the
last
time
you
saw
it,
it
was
agreement
for
us
to
purchase
Islam
and
then
sell
a
portion
of
a
land,
because
our
property
line
is
right
up
against
the
people's
house.
So
as
an
exchange.
R
What
we
found
out
after
you
approved
it
was
that
we
could
not
get
clear
title
to
it
because
of
an
old
child
payment
lien
that
goes
with
the
property,
so
it
doesn't
go
away.
So
therefore,
the
city,
you
know
can't
purchase
properties
that
you
can't
get
a
clear
title
on.
So
we
went
back
again.
The
property
owner
needs
that
land.
So
what
we
agree
does
it
was
to
sell
that
land
as
we
had
done
before
we
did
it.
We
were
able
to
add
a
couple
more
feet
to
it.
R
Your
13
feet
in
exchange
for
that
they'd
give
us
a
30-year
municipal
easement
to
utilize
the
land
for
the
same
purpose.
We
can
do
as
an
entranceway
feature
of
landscaping.
New
sign
enter
in
the
Union
Academy
neighborhood
at
no
cost,
so
so
we
say
the
5,000
a
purchase
price.
We
get
to
use
the
land
for
beautification
on
our
entrance
ways
to
the
Union
Academy
neighborhood.
They
get
the
relief
from
the
from
the
property
line
being
up
against
their
house,
and
everybody
is
happy.
R
It's
just
the
revised
to
what
you
see,
because
that
lien
that
does
not
leave.
It
was
about
a
$35,000
child
support
lien.
That
does
not
leave
the
property
and
we
didn't
want
to
take
possession
of
that.
So
this
is
the
alternative
to
get
where
we
wanted
to
go
on
it.
So
I'd
ask
you
to
approve
that
tonight,
so
we
can
go
forward
with
that.
This.

of
George

U
R
We
had
a
meeting
to
discuss
this
item
previously.
What
my
job
is
a
city
manager
to
take
what
I
saw
from
the
consensus
that
meeting
and
bring
it
back
forward?
Obviously,
because
this
is
naming
of
a
building
there's
the
ordinance
process,
so
we
put
the
ordinance
back
on
is
read
what
I
told
you
in
it
from
that
meeting
is
about
giving
you
examples
of
this
to
prove
the
the
ordinance
of
the
naming.
The
name
is
going
to
be
on
the
the
wing.
R
Where
are
you
going
to
the
right
of
the
Heritage
Museum
go
into
the
big
hall
with
banquets
and
then
there's
another
where
all
the
history
is,
as
you
see
on
the
examples,
I
put
some
examples
of
what
the
sign
would
be
from
the
ordinance
Commissioner
banther.
It
sent
me
about
in
honor
to
suppose
so
when
you
see
the
signs,
honors
punish,
that's
something
sent
from
the
commissioner,
but
there's
examples
of
the
signs
for
the
naming
of
there.
R
You
know
happy
in
this
thing:
you
know
we
get
the
portion
of
name
and
after
George
Belarus
again,
first
promote
for
the
many
many
years
of
promotion
being
the
face
of
the
of
the
sponge
industry
and
every
media
outlet.
And
you
know
you
didn't,
have
the
social
me
like
you
did
before,
but
every
media
outlet
that's
available.
He
was
there
and
then
within
that
museum.
Are
there
to
honor
the
families,
the
founders
or
hi,
everyone
do
it?
We've
got
a
lot
of
room
in
that
museum.
I
want
to
remind
everybody.
R
We
got
a
lot
of
room
now.
Is
we
approved
finishing
up
those
last
sidewalks
from
the
docks
to
the
Harwich
Museum?
Now
we've
got
our
walk
and
sir,
we
have
got
along
the
walking
area
from
downtown
Saffir
to
the
docks.
We
have
got
areas
where
we
can
honor
everybody,
those
involved
in
the
history,
the
culture
and
art.
We
have
got
so
many
places,
as
we
finish
up
the
last
phase
of
the
10-year
process,
to
honor
to
do
more
honoring
over,
for
instance,
at
the
docks.
R
You
know
the
founders
of
sponge,
so
we
have
got
a
limited,
limited
area
and
we'll
be
working
next.
Five
years,
we'll
be
working
with
the
art
committee,
we'll
be
working
with
the
storica
side,
everybody
so
that
when
people
like
again,
I
was
at
last
weekend
that
at
the
Riverwalk
in
Tampa,
like
they
are
honoring
honoring
people
that
were
founders
or
people
in
Tampa
honor,
and
not
only
culture,
honoring
people
art
all
along
that
way.
R
So
there's
plenty
of
places
where
our
history
and
stuff
needs
to
be
known
to
the
people
who
come
to
our
town
and
again
after
a
10-year
process
that
you
know
former
mayor,
are
she
married
DiDonato
all
the
people
who
started
this
in
this
walking
process?
Now
it's
our
job
to
fill
it
with
all
the
cultural
history
of
this
town
in
our
next
phase,
as
we
go
to
the
project,
so
I
think
we
can
do
a
good
job
in
honor
and
everybody.
R
T
Like
Micah
scooted
6:23,
he
started
having
you
I'm
here
in
support
of
necessary,
not
necessary,
honoring
George
blurs,
but
recognizing
George,
Belarus
and
recognizing
him
a
little
bit
differently
by
putting
his
name
on
on
a
wing.
You
know
a
lot
of
people
really
don't
know
a
lot
of
the
history
of
the
sponge
diver.
It
was
probably
the
one
of
the
most
dangerous
jobs
that
there
was
sponge
boats,
at
least
in
Greece,
used
to
go
with
multiple
divers.
Knowing
that
half
of
them
probably
wouldn't
come
back.
My
great-grandfather
died
off
the
coast
of
Africa
sponging.
T
So
you
know
my
family
has
a
hit
rich
history
of
sponging.
You
know
here
in
Tarpon
Springs,
you
know,
Leone
Volusia
sat
14
was
the
first
hardhat
dive
or
the
youngest
hardhat
diver.
At
the
age
of
fourteen
John,
the
Greek
was
probably
the
best
hardhat
diver
in
Tarpon
Springs.
Those
things
can
be
debated.
T
What
I,
don't
think
can
be
debated,
is
the
recognition
that
this
town,
their
history
or
the
rich
history
of
the
culture,
the
divers.
What
what
attracted
you
know,
somebody
living
in
Chicago,
New,
York
California,
to
come
here
and
see.
What
is
this
sponge
industry?
Why
are
the
white
of
the
Greeks
migrated
here?
They
were
a
hug,
the
the
industry.
They
were
hard-working
people.
T
They
were
too
busy
trying
to
feed
their
families
and
trying
to
that
promoting
tarpon
springs,
George,
promoted,
tarpon
springs,
and
so,
when
I
look
at
I,
don't
look
at
honoring
George
I'm,
looking
at
recognizing
George
and
by
naming
a
wing
you're
recognizing
George
Polaris,
who
you
honor?
Are
the
people
inside
that
room
so
again,
I'm
here
to
support
the
city
moving
forward
in
naming
the
that
particular
the
building
or
room
the
George
Blair's?
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
Z
Good
evening,
Nixon
Bella's,
485,
Riverside
Drive
I,
appreciate
Mike's
comments
and
they
mean
a
lot
because
outside
you
know,
we
were
childhood
friends,
and
so
we
go
back
and
when
he
was
outside,
we
had
a
chance
to
talk
about
it
and
it
was
good
because
it
enlightened
me
I,
hope,
I
enlightened
him
a
little
bit
and
it
actually
was
a
little
bit
of
a
history.
Summary
and
I.
Think
everyone
here
has
good
intentions
with
regards
to
that
I
respect
and
admire
mr.
Bellairs
I
still
I
call
him
mr.
Z
Z
I
said
you
know:
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna
get
a
history
lesson
myself
and
I
went
on
I
I
went
to
the
Google,
I
went
to
Bing,
I
did
so
many
terms
and
phrases
and
I
got
a
good
history
lesson
and
I
can
tell
you
from
the
history
lesson.
I
learned
a
lot
about
the
Jonker
curse.
The
John
Cheney
I
learned
about
different
ethnic
groups
that
were
involved
in
the
development
in
the
culture
of
sponging
that
were
non-greeks.
Z
Different
colors
of
skin
and
I
was
impressed
by
that,
and
that
made
me
feel
convicted
to
say
well,
I,
understand
and
recognize
the
importance
of
recognizing
someone
such
as
mr.
Belarus
I,
also
feel
that
it's
important
to
recognize
and
honor
those
as
well
that
contributed
both
in
the
past
in
the
present
and
also
leave
the
door
open
for
the
future.
I
place.
A
lot
of
value
in
the
history
of
our
Tarpon
Springs
I
use,
an
analogy
with
Mike
outside
is
to
might
look
along
the
wall.
Z
We've
got
every
picture
of
every
mayor
in
Tarpon
Springs
and
we
are
you're
honoring
and
paying
tribute
to
every
mayor,
but
you're,
not
naming
one
part
of
a
building
after
one
mayor
I
also
said
to
Mike,
you
know
Mike.
Let's
talk
about
the
sport
Arina,
the
sports
arena.
We
had
the
Hall
of
Fame
and
every
year
the
Hall
of
Fame
nominates
individuals
to
go
into
that
Hall
of
Fame,
but
they
don't
just
pick
one
and
say
this
is
a
Hall
of
Fame
from
one
person.
Mr.
AA
You
know
I
was
back
today,
I
was
thinking.
Is
there
the
irony
of
this
situation?
You
know,
I,
think
that
you
know
too
many
times.
We
look
for
opportunities
to
divide
each
other,
instead
of
looking
at
this
opportunity
to
unite
or
nobody's
going
to
dismiss
what
mr.
Belarus
has
done,
but
long
before
I
ever
ran
for
office.
Mr.
Belarus
was
advocating
for
the
Sponge
Docks,
bringing
Greek
divers
on
we're
sitting
at
st.
AA
Pete
College
with
the
University
of
South
Florida,
looking
at
opportunities
to
do
that,
it's
always
been
an
ambassador
for
the
sponge
industry,
and
now
we
look
at
this
is
an
opportunity
to
say
who's
better.
This
one
of
this
one
and
I,
like
Nick's
analogy,
maybe
they
can
have
a
room
upstairs
with
my
name
on
it.
Let
me
like,
like
somebody's
gonna,
come
in
City
Hall
and
remember
that
somebody's
name
was
on
a
room
and
basically
this
is
all
that
is.
You
know
there
is
misinformation
that
the
whole
characters
museum
is
gonna,
be
named
after
mr.
AA
bouleris,
which
is
not
true.
You
have
to
go
inside
the
building
to
even
know
that
anything
in
the
building.
They
say
it's
a
wing
I
call
it
a
room,
but
it's
just
an
opportunity
to
do
something
for
a
man
who
deserves
it.
But
I
said
to
myself:
even
in
his
death
he's
advocating
for
tarplin
many
many
people
have
talked
about
the
history
of
tarp
and
that
sometime
is
hidden.
The
founders
people
have
done
all
of
these
great
things
who
has
Greek
heritage.
Now
it
comes
to
life.
AA
It's
an
opportunity
to
maybe
to
write
that
history
and
put
it
inside
the
room
yeah.
They
might
they
that
always
the
joys,
Belarus
room
or
wing
or
whatever,
but
after
that
they
go
in
and
find
out
more
about,
what's
happening
about
Tarpon.
What
is
the
history
of
Tarpon
and
if
we
use
that
as
the
opportunity
to
come
together
instead
of
opportunity
to
say
who
was
first,
this
one
is
better
than
this.
One
is
this
really.
AA
This
was
George
to
me
is
just
a
symbol,
but
what's
good
about
tarplin,
he
advocated
he
was
an
ambassador
for
the
city
of
tarplin.
You
know,
I
had
a
chance.
I
had
a
little
sponge
diver
on
my
desk
young
man
said.
What's
that
I
started
telling
him
about
the
sponge
industry,
so
you
know
we
all
go
to
YouTube,
so
I
go
to
youtube
I
put
in
sponging
a
video
comes
up,
guess
who's
on
the
video
joins
Belarus
talking
about
the
sponge
industry.
AA
So
without
a
doubt
the
man
deserves
this
honor
I,
don't
even
know
if
it's
due
recognition,
because,
like
I
say
it's
only
a
wing,
we
act
like
it's
named
in
the
Craig
park.
We
took
Craig
Park
and
we
call
it
joyfully
reporting
and
most
people,
don't
even
think
about
that
as
being
the
Heritage
Museum,
they
still
call
it
the
library,
you
know
I
mean
I'm
just
saying
sometimes,
instead
of
looking
at
this
is
the
opportunity
to
divide.
Let's
look
at
an
opportunity
to
unite.
AA
Let's
take
all
of
the
history
that
people
have
talked
about,
let's
catalog,
that,
let's
put
it
in
that
room,
so
others
can
know
about
what
has
happened
here
in
tarplin.
Does
that
bring
less
of
an
honor
to
them?
No,
the
funny
thing
is
if
this
didn't
come
up
and
I,
just
think
of
mr.
Burfoot
I
know
right
now
he's
not
really
Oh
thinking.
This
baby
was
the
greatest
idea,
but
to
even
bring
it
up,
because,
without
that
these
same
people
that
everybody's
advocating
who's
done
so
much
for
tarplin.
Nobody
would
know
anything
about
now.
AA
Q
Q
I
did
this
he's
talking
about
the
people
that
had
done
it
before
him?
He
has
constantly
honored
them,
so
this
and
Commissioner
banth,
or
vice
mayor
banther.
It's
not
about
dishonouring
any
other
sponge
diver.
It's
actually
honoring
them
once
again
and
I,
no
matter
what
your
outcome
is
to
this
evening.
I
want
to
thank.
Thank
you
all
very
much
for
remembering
George
in
this
way.
I
know
the
county
honored
him
as
well.
I
was
it
was,
would
be
nice
if
our
own
city
did
it
as
well.
Thank
you
so
much.
AB
Commissioners,
audience
I'm,
Frank
DiDonato,
proud
to
be
a
tarpon
person.
I
can
see
remote
I'm
a
person
I've
been
here.
41
years
of
my
life
came
here
when
I
was
two
I
think
no
it's
a
little
longer
ago
than
that
one
of
the
first
people
I
met
to
tell
me
about
tarpon.
Strengths
was
George
polluters,
one
of
the
first
people.
AB
That
really
not
just
tell
me
but
set
me
down
and
got
my
attention
about
how
important
sponge
diving
was
and
the
sponge
industry
was
tarpon
springs
was
Georgia
blues
and
George
never
talked
about
what
he
did
and
how
valuable
he
was
to
that
industry.
He
talked
about.
As
it's
been
said.
He
talked
about
all
of
the
sponge
divers
of
Tarpon
Springs,
but
George
went
way
beyond
that.
Some
of
you
may
know
some
of
you
do
not
know
the
essence.
AB
We
just
brought
out
the
county
honored
George
quite
some
time
ago,
and
they
didn't
honor
him
as
a
sponge
diver.
They
honored
him
as
the
man
who
loved
tarpon
springs,
that
man
took
time
out
of
his
businesses
and
went
down
County
and
met
with
the
Tourist
Development
people
and
made
sure
the
tarpon
was
always
included.
The
sponge
Doc's
were
always
included
and
tarpon
was
the
place
to
come
to
see.
They
made
sure
the
county
would
do
that,
and
not
only
did
he
do
it.
AB
He
put
some
time
into
this
as
well,
but
if
George
Boole
ears
hadn't
taken
the
time
out
of
his
their
own
personal
life
and
gone
down
and
worked
with
the
county
in
developing
tourism
tourism,
not
just
the
sponge
industry,
although
that
was
the
first
thing
he
would
talk
about
because
he
knew
how
vital
it
was
to
our
community
to
preserve.
It
knew
how
vital
it
was
to
Pinellas
County
to
preserve
this
funds.
Entire
industry
again
has
has
been
already
said:
I,
don't
repeat
anything,
but
it
shouldn't
be
a
division.
AB
It
should
be
a
coming
together
and
a
rejoicing
and
George.
There
is
no
question
that
man
deserves
recognition
above
above
many
I,
don't
know
of
anybody
else
in
my
41
years
here
that
has
ever
put
in
the
time
and
devotion
and
the
love
to
this
community
and
be
involved
in
the
political
process
just
to
see
that
it
got
done
than
George
Miller,
so
I
hope.
For
that
reason
he
will
pass
this
much.
Thank.
A
A
A
He
was
a
very
good
contributor
to
the
sponge
industry.
He
made
many
videos,
many
commercials.
He
promoted
his
business,
he
promoted
Harper
Springs
Hill
of
Tarpon
Springs
and
he
should
be
honored.
It
should
be
honor
with
all
the
other
sponge
divers
and
all
the
other
people
that
actually
worked
and
were
involved
in
the
sponge
industry.
A
My
fellow
commissioners,
as
you
know,
we
receive
many
letters
from
concerned
citizens
asking
us
to
honor
all
the
sponges
the
contributor
in
that
industry
in
terms
of
spring
and
to
name
the
Heritage
Museum
to
honor
all
the
sponges,
including
mr.
Belarus,
and
to
name
it
the
spongers
Museum
our
high
school,
the
most
of
us
graduated
from
he
was
named
to
honor
the
spongers.
A
A
Later
he
brought
500
dips
deep
sea
fishing.
It
gives
divers
from
the
deck
and
his
islands
column,
nose
hockey
and
see
me.
He
will
reveal
analyzed.
The
local
sponge
industry
in
causing
tarpon
springs
to
be
known
as
a
sponge
capital
of
the
world.
So
the
the
founders,
the
pioneers
in
a
sponge
industry.
It
was
John
Chaney
and
he
was
not
a
great
person
and
then
it
was
John
CoCoRaHS
who
brought
500
people
from
the
islands
in
North
Bay
the
industry
here
in
terrible
spring.
A
They
developed
the
stick.
They
the
John,
Chaney
and
uncle
quarters
had
developed
the
the
culture
that
we
cherish
here
in
Tarpon
Springs
channel
48.
He
had
on
a
talk
show
and
he
got
the
public
opinion
on
this
matter.
A
hundred
percent
of
the
people,
one
of
the
Heritage
Museum,
went
to
be
named
the
sponge
Museum
and
also
to
honor
mr.
George
Boole
ears
and
dedicate
a
section
in
the
museum
for
him.
I
think
will
be
unfair
if
we
ignore
all
the
other
sponge
sponges,
including
the
founders
mr.
Cheney
and
mr.
A
Let's
put
a
question
there,
a
questionnaire
attached
to
the
water
bill
and
let
the
people
of
Tarpon
Springs
tell
us
what
they're
really
what
let
the
people
tell
us
what
they
really
want,
not
us,
because
we
all
go
and
be
favored.
Mr.
Jones
believes
because
we
loved
him.
He
was
our
friend,
but
what
about
the
other
people?
They
have
their
families
that
worked
there
for
years.
How
do
they
feel
about
it?
A
So
my
recommendation
is
to
go
ahead
and
put
a
questionnaire
attached
to
the
water
bill
and
let
the
people
start
with
Springs
tell
us
what
we
should
do,
how
what
wish
you
name
the
wing
and
inside
we
should
dedicate
a
place
for
mr.
Blair's
to
be
recognized
just
like
the
other.
Thank
you
and
now
I'd
like
to
go
to
vice
mayor
Penta.
Thank.
J
You
certainly
when
I
brought
this
this
item
forward
last
year,
I
I
too,
as
has
been
said
in
public
comment,
never
thought
it
would
be
controversial.
We're
talking
about
naming
a
wing
of
a
vastly
underutilized
city.
Building,
building
I
grew
up
to
going
going
to
the
library
there
and
that's
what
I
called
the
old
library
and
I
saw
so
I
thought
at
first
I,
said
I
think
they're
submitting
some
misconception.
J
We
were
doing
a
george
belarus
museum
like
just
for
him,
which,
if
you
knew
George,
he
would
never
want
that,
and
that's
not
what
this
is.
So
we're
literally
talking
about
putting
a
plaque
above
the
door
in
his
honor
and
then
creating
a
room
where
everything
that
that
was
said
here
tonight
that
the
mayor
just
read
right
now,
which
is
very
important.
J
But
if
I
had
a
brought
this
up,
I
wonder
if
ever
been
brought
up
soon
to
do
any
kind
of
sponge,
diving
museum
period
and
I.
Think
it's
very
important,
as
we
all
know
that
the
sponge
diving
industry
in
Tarpon
is,
you
know,
hurting
for
divers
at
times
that
we
keep
that
tradition
alive
and
that
would
keep
the
names
alive
of
the
people
and,
like
hasn't
pointed
out,
not
many
of
whom
are
not
Greek,
that
that
their
memories
are
honored
and
that
their
traditions
are
honored.
J
So
it's
not
directed
towards
any
person
on
this
border
in
this
room,
but
I
think
it
is
a
little
embarrassing
that
this
is
a
controversy
to
put
his
name
on
a
plaque
above
a
above
a
room
in
a
in
a
building
that
we
hardly
use
to
then
inside
that
room,
promote
the
sponge
industry
so
that
that
is
all
this
is
and
death.
You
know
and
I
respect.
You
know
the
argument.
Well,
you
know
we
don't
want
to
dishonor
somebody
well,
in
that
case
nobody
could
ever
named
a
building.
J
Anything
like
you
take
the
leap
around
museum.
It,
let's
call
it
art
museum,
it
sleep,
a
Ratner
Museum.
Now
it's
not
a
museum
just
for
Lipa
Ratner,
it's
for
other
artists.
In
there
we
have
the
con
deck
and
singletery
building
for
the
for
the
police.
Are
we
name
buildings?
We
name
streets?
That's
what
we
do
does
not
diminish
from
anybody
else.
In
fact,
I
think
it
then
promotes
others.
So
we're
like
we've,
talked
about
with
multi
divisions
on
this
board.
We
are
tasked
with
making
decisions
on
this
board.
J
M
It's
not
only
about
George
and-
and
you
know,
George
didn't
only
promote
sponging
industry.
It
was
tourism
in
a
hole
George.
My
you
know,
just
my
belief
is
that
the
Sponge
Docks
may
not
be
where
it
is
today,
because
because,
if
George
wasn't
involved
in
tourism,
George
kept
this
Bunch
Doc's
going.
There's
a
don't
get
me
wrong.
There's
a
lot
of
history.
There
and
I
understand
what
everybody's
done
in
years
past,
but
George
kept
it
going.
M
He
brought
tourism
to
that
coming
to
our
community,
the
documentaries
and
just
a
recognition
that
he
has
given
our
town.
I
can't
even
tell
you
he.
He
just
was
a
pillar
of
this
community
and
then
our
st.
Pete
clue
what
her
st.
P
Visitors
Bureau
is
honoring
him
every
year
with
an
annual
award
in
his
name
and
tourism
award
in
in
George's
name.
So
if
they
can
honor
mr.
M
bouleris
I
really
think
that
that's
something
that
we
should
be
doing
as
well
again,
it's
not
naming
the
entire
building,
the
entire
Heritage
Museum
after
George,
it's
a
wing
and
that's
where
we
start
and
then
from
there
Mike's
been
said.
We
you
know,
we
add
to
it.
We
add
the
proclamation
that
the
mayor
just
read
and
and
other
names
and
whatnot,
and
if
it's
not
in
the
museum,
it
could
be
somewhere
on
the
Sponge
Docks,
but
we
need
to
keep
diag
reawy
need
to
keep
the
history
alive.
M
There
is
a
lot
of
history
here
in
our
community
and
we
all
have
passion
for
this
community.
Big
passion
for
this
community
so
again,
George
I
think
that
this
is
just
so
important
that
we
honor
his
name,
that
he
did
so
much
for
our
town,
for
the
county
and
for
tourism
in
general
and
I
think
this
is
just
the
right
thing
to
do
at
this
time.
Thank
you.
H
Thank
you,
as
vice
mayor
banther
and
commissioner
Slattery
said
it's
more
about.
We
all
honor
the
divers
that
came
before
George
and
we
all
want
to
recognize
them.
Cheney
and
and,
of
course,
our
recognized
on
the
Sponge
Docks.
But
it's
not
just
about
sponge
diving
with
George.
It's
about
promoting
tarpon
springs,
I'm,
a
business
owner
on
the
Sponge
Docks
I
appreciate
every
day
what
George
did
for
tarpon
springs
when
I
was
president
of
the
Merchants
Association
I
had
many
conversations
with
George.
H
He
breathed
and
lived
tarpon
springs.
It
wasn't
about
him.
It
wasn't
even
about
sponge
diving.
It
was
about
the
sponge.
He
called
it.
Our
Mickey
Mouse.
His
biggest
fear
was
that
we
were
going
to
lose
our
Mickey
Mouse,
because
we
only
have
a
handful
of
divers
left
and,
and
he
cared
about
the
divers
he
cared
about
the
industry.
He
cared
about.
Tarpon
springs.
H
He
went
to
the
tourist
development
council
meetings
in
the
county.
He
made
sure
that
we
were
on
the
map.
He
made
sure
that
tarpon
springs
was
recognized
and
it's
more
about
the
recognition
of
tarpon
springs
and
what
he
did
for.
Tarpon
springs
as
someone
who
market
at
Tarpon
Springs
that
I
and
Mayor
Archie,
you
put
it
right.
We
should
not
be
divided
about
this.
We
should
be
united
and
inside
that
wing.
We
can
then
have
some
history
and
honoring.
P
Thank
you,
honestly,
thanks
to
the
city
manager,
about
talking
about
the
additional
history
elements
that
we
could
incorporate
into
Tarpon
Springs
from
the
walkable
standpoint.
That's
down
Safford!
If
it's
down
other
parts
from
the
historic
district
to
the
Sponge,
Docks
I,
really
think
that's
a
great
idea.
I
love
going
to
Tampa
and
seeing
the
history
of
they
have
of
the
where
the
head
shots,
I,
think
if
the
bronze
head
shots
or
full
statues
of
history
of
where
the
town's
come,
how
it
was
founded
with
a
short
history,
history
blurb
about
it.
So
that's
that's
great.
P
To
hear
and
I
want
to
echo
what
Mayor
Archie
was
talking
about
with
putting
a
positive
spin
on
this,
because
we
have
an
opportunity
to
talk
about
a
lot
of
history
that
we
wouldn't
necessarily
be
talking
about
today.
If
this
wasn't
brought
up
by
vice
mayor
banther
with
that
I
know,
there's
some
concern
about
renaming
the
whole
building
when
I
found
out
this
is
a
wing
I.
Think
I
was
more
in
support
of
this
I.
Do
like
the
last
one,
mr.
P
George,
Michael
bouleris
wing
to
honor
the
sponge
industry
as
a
whole
and
really
incorporates
the
whole
sponge
industry.
Like
everyone's
been
saying
tonight,
he's
more
of
a
spokesperson
for
tarpon
springs.
He
is
now
a
spokesperson
potentially
for
the
sponge
industry
wing,
so
he's
still
continuing
that
on,
although
it's
still
honoring
the
sponge
industry.
So
if
I
had
to
make
a
recommendation
based
on
what
I
saw
out
of
all
the
options,
I
think
that
would
be
the
route
to
go
with
the
mr.
P
J
A
J
The
George
Michael
Belarus
wing
to
honors
to
honor
sponge
in
history,
I'm,
not
sure
if,
if
if
the
word
does
should
be
in
there
on
my
grammar
expert,
but
as
long
as
it
has
his
name
and
then
to
honor
sponge
to
honor
sponge
industry,
so
we
so
it's
crystal
clear,
as
we've
discussed
tonight,
with
a
purpose
that
wing
is
as
long
as
it
has
those
elements
in
there.
That's
about
that's
what
my
my
my
emotion
is
tonight.
I
have.

A
Y
When
we
started
looking
at
this
issue,
we
realized
it
was
a
much
larger
issue
than
we
had
first
contemplated
with
that
we're
in
the
process
of
developing
an
in-house
task
force,
working
with
the
Public
Works,
Department
planning
and
several
of
the
other
departments
to
kind
of
develop
and
look
at
guidelines
for
design
of
these
particular
towers,
especially
in
some
of
our
more
sensitive
areas
like
our
historic
district
and
Sponge
Docks
in
the
CRA.
So
we've
have
carry
lemons
also
sitting
on
that
that
task
force.
Y
So
what
we're
actually
asking
for
a
little
bit
more
time
to
actually
study
this
issue
and
actually
some
dealt
some
regulations
that
are
going
to
allow
us
to
look
at
that
design
component
so
that
when
a
provider
comes
into
this
community,
they
recognize
that
we
have
a
standard
that
we
want
to
upholds,
especially
in
those
very
sensitive
areas.
And
so
that's
what
we
really
are.
Looking
for.

The
last
thing
I
would
like
to
mention:
I
keep
hearing
about
tenants
that
bring
crime;
I'm,
sorry,
but
tenants
all
tenants,
not
criminals.
Okay,
yes,
we're
going
to
go
through
some
tenants
as
a
landlord
and
have
to
weed
them
out,
but
in
my
past,
I've
had
some
great
tenants
and
I
myself
was
a
tenant
and
beginning
of
our
career
as
well
as
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
people
here
so
to
sit
here
and
claim
that
all
these
tenants
are
going
to
be
criminals.
I
think
is
not
fair
to
these
people.
That's
all
the
comments.
U
AD
If
you
allow
the
rezoning
you
open
the
door
and
it's
your
job
to
find
out
to
find
if
it's
compatible
or
not,
you
don't
have
to
accept
the
opinion
of
the
staff
in
the
PMZ
meeting.
That
I
was
here
to
listen
to
and
speak
against
it
on
the
board,
which
had
a
lot
of
new
members
on.
It
seemed
to
think
that
if
the
staff
recommended
it
that
that
was
the
opinion
they
had
to
adopt,
you
were
here
to
listen.
You
heard
some
evidence
last
time.
I
was
here.
AD
Some
of
it
was
regarding
safety
issues
and
other
things
like
that,
but
the
issue
of
compatibility
of
where
it
is
you
heard
in
when
they
were
talking
about
the
Sponge
Docks
and
the
walking
between
downtown
and
Sponge
Docks.
This
is
in
that
path,
and
this
is
a
part
of
town
that
needs
to
stay.
Low
density
needs.
It's
a
single-family
homes
too,
as
much
as
possible
and
to
fit
in
apartments
won't
fit
in
with
this
neighborhood
there's
some
across
the
street,
but
you
don't
have
to
make
it
worse.
Thank
you.
Thank.

Hello,
Kristy
curfews,
five
thirty,
eight
and
a
half
Division
Street
tarpon
springs.
I,
agree
with
what
the
previous
gentleman
stated.
I
live
right.
There
I
walk
right
there,
I
Drive,
my
kids
to
and
from
school
every
day
in
that
area
it
is
a
very
unsafe
intersection.
The
speed
limit
was
reduced
a
couple
years
ago.
People
still
fly
around
that
curve
with
an
additional
apartment.
Building
on
that
lot,
that
is
less
than
a
half
an
acre.
There's
going
to
be
numerous
more
foot
traffic
street
traffic
with
cars,
then,
with
the
zoning
being
residential.
AE
We've
got
the
church
right
there.
When
there
are
events
at
st.
Michael's,
where's
people
where's
their
pagan
Park.
Our
streets
are
already
crowded
enough
in
that
area
to
bring
more
traffic
in
and
take
away
from
parking
for
the
church.
When
we
do
have
large
events
there,
that's
all
I
have
to
say
thank
you.
AF
Hello,
I'm,
Janet,
Cunningham
I,
live
on
Park,
Street
and
I'm
also
here
to
discuss
the
concerns
that
I
have
about
whether
or
not
we
should
resume
this
area.
As
the
last
person
just
said,
it
is
a
very
dangerous
intersection.
I
know:
I
live
there
right
now
the
area
is
empty
and
it's
still
very
busy.
A
concern
of
having
additional
traffic
definitely
would
be
something
that
I
would
be
worried
about.
AF
The
possible
owner
or
developer
talked
about
what
had
been
said
before
about
tenants
and
crime
and
how
there's
not
really
a
correlation,
but
I.
Remember
a
little
more
than
three
years
ago,
when
I
sat
in
my
house
and
I
heard
gunshots,
I
think
everybody
here
remembers
that
those
gunshots
came
from
an
apartment.
Building
located
right
down
the
street
from
where
this
prospective
apartment
is
going
to
be.
AF
Safety
is
a
paramount
concern
of
mine
for
a
variety
of
reasons.
One
is
I'm
a
schoolteacher.
We've
just
dealt
with
a
major
tragedy,
again
I
can't
say
tenants
bring
in
crime,
but
I
can
say,
there's
more
of
a
chance
of
multiple
people
having
more
crime
than
having
single
families
having
crime
stormwater
runoff.
Absolutely
that
area
floods,
anyone
who
lives
near
there
knows
that
we
don't
need
a
hurricane
to
tell
us
that
we
just
sit
there
and
look
at
it
more
traffic
in
there
more
people
potential
for
more
crime.
AF
All
of
these
things
need
to
be
considered
by
the
Commission
here
as
a
reality
of
what
would
happen.
If
this
is
resumed,
we
live
in
an
area
that
is
very
unique
in
the
Park
Street
area.
It
is
right
near
the
Sponge
Docks.
We
just
spent
a
very
large
amount
of
time
talking
about
the
heritage
of
Turpan
Springs,
and
yet
we
just
kind
of
zoom
by
this
issue.
This
is
an
area
of
Tarpon
Springs
that
you
walk
right
to
between
epiphany
and
the
Sponge
Docks
the
gentleman
who
spoke
first
in
about
this
issue.

my
family's
been
on
that

all
my
life.
Since
they
came
over,
it's
changed
we
could
before
we
had
air.
You
had
your
screen
doors.
You
just
slept
with
your
doors,
open
your
windows
open.
You
can't
do
that
anymore.
If
my
window
doesn't
lock
right,
I
nail
it
shut
because
I'm
not
I'm
scared
at
2:09
I'm,
two
doors
away
from
those
apartments.
Eureka
I
saw
everything
that
night
I've
seen
everything
every
time
the
police
go
there.
When
the
lights
start
flashing,
I
can
see
it
through.
S
My
blinds
and
I
sit
on
my
porch
and
I
probably
should
stay
inside
for
my
own
safety
I'm
a
smoker
I
set
out
on
my
porch
I.
Don't
want
to
blow
up
my
house
and
sometimes
it's
late
at
night
and
I
get
scared,
there's
constantly
people
walking
back
and
forth,
and
a
lot
of
them
are
going
into
those
or
Eureka
apartments,
but
they're
going
back,
North,
Grand,
Boulevard
I,
don't
know
where
they're
coming
from
the
apartments
that
are
already
built
there,
they're,
not
even
rented,
there's
there's
the
density.
S
It's
it's
just
not
there
for
that
section.
If
you
can't
rent
the
apartments
they're
already
there,
why
do
you
want
to
build
more
apartments?
I
would
build
single-family
homes,
that's
what
that
area
is
used
to
and
the
way
tarpon
is
going
there
they're
buying
the
older
houses
and
fixing
them
up,
so
they
want
to
be
in
a
nice
neighborhood.
AG
AG
The
city
is
being
asked
to
change
an
existing
zoning
at
a
critical
location
in
the
heart
of
a
historic
neighborhood.
That's
primarily
comprised
of
single-family
homes.
I.
Don't
understand
why
this
is
acceptable
with
so
little
information,
I,
just
rezoning
for
a
developer
without
a
site
plan
and
with
very
few
details,
demonstrate
any
kind
of
forethought
or
smart
planning.
It
just
doesn't
seem
to
make
sense.
There
are
so
many
unknowns
in
terms
of
this
application.
AG
Serious
incidents
requiring
police
assistance
in
our
neighborhood
are
not
exclusive
to
the
Eureka
apartments.
While
I've
spoken
to
a
lot
of
residents
over
the
last
few
weeks
that
will
state
there
are
a
number
of
other
properties
in
our
neighborhood
that
caused
concern.
I
think
all
we
need
to
do
is
review
some
of
the
police
incident
reports
for
some
of
the
properties
even
located
adjacent
to
this
parcel.
That's
under
discussion
tonight,
the
police
have
been
called
to
address
some
pretty
serious
issues.
There.
AG
This
evening,
we've
provided
members
of
the
board
with
excerpts
of
some
police
incident
reports
for
several
bordering
properties.
They're
all
available
public
record
from
the
police
department
and
I
would
urge
the
commissioners
to
just
take
a
few
minutes,
at
least
to
review
these
records
and
compare
some
of
the
recent
incidents
reported
at
4:32
Roosevelt,
for
example.
Compare
that
what
you
see
on
that
list
of
some
of
the
recent
activity
also
reported
at
the
Eureka
Apartments.
AG
Please
consider
the
wisdom
of
increasing
density
with
the
addition
of
seven
living
units
right
smack
in
the
middle
of
an
area
that
I
really
would
argue,
is
already
pretty
vulnerable
and
it's
a
source
of
real
concern
in
our
neighborhood.
You
know,
I
can
say
with
certainty
that
nobody
in
our
neighborhood
be
grudges
the
applicant
for
wanting
to
develop
their
property.
That's
absolutely
their
right,
but
it
can
be
done
within
the
parameters
of
the
existing
zoning,
making
it
the
zoning
less
restrictive
to
please
one
property
owner
with
no
site
plan,
no
regard
of
any
other
factors.
AG
It
just
seems
kind
of
short-sighted
and,
with
all
due
respect,
a
bit
irresponsible
and
view
of
some
of
the
things
that
have
happened
in
our
neighborhood
in
the
recent
past.
I
I
just
worry
is
this
the
kind
of
precedent
that
the
Commission
wants
to
set
for
future
rezoning
applications.
Thank
you
for
your
time
in
consideration.
X
Rene
Torres,
400,
Grand,
Boulevard
I
think,
besides
all
the
things
that
have
been
said
here
tonight
about
potential
crime
over
development
too
much
traffic.
The
one
thing
that
keeps
you
know
hitting
me
in
the
face
that
has
not
been
discussed
is
the
fact
that
Saint
Michael
shrine
gets
thousands
of
visitors.
Buses
of
tourists
come
to
it.
School
kids
play
on
that
lot
and
there
seems
to
be.
X
If
you
were
building
a
new
church
anywhere,
it
would
have
a
minimum
requirement
for
open
space
or
parking,
and
you
are
not
addressing
it
and
I
want
to
make
a
comment
that
the
last
time
I
was
here.
Somebody
said
that
what
we
trust
the
applicant-
and
this
is
not
about
trust-
this
is
about
laws
and
zoning
as
it
stands.
Thank
you.
AH
A
D
AH
Less
meeting
a
lot
of
neighbors
emotionally
spoke
against
rezoning
of
this
property
to
higher
density
area.
After
the
meeting
I
actually
looked
for
available
research
to
compare
the
crime
statistics
to
from
a
single
homes
to
a
apartment
complex
his
several
documented
urban
cases,
he
was
stated
that
there
is
really
no
basis
to
prove
that
there
is
a
correlation
between
apartments
and
homes.
AH
However,
it's
more
based
on
a
socio-economic
structure
of
people,
renting
that
and
also
at
the
density,
and
we
talking
about
increasing
density.
In
this
case,
the
higher
density
is
also
presented
to
you
in
a
form
of
the
logs,
and
you
can
see
for
yourself
and
maybe
compared
to
some
single
homes
as
well,
to
see
if
those
logs
really
represent
a
higher
call
logs
than
a
single-family
homes.
But
you
cannot
ignore
the
evidence
that
was
put
in
front
of
you.
AH
So,
based
on
those
facts,
it
is
reasonable
to
understand
why
there
is
a
stigma
that
comes
really
with
the
apartment
homes.
This
kind
of
stigma
also
exists
with
the
chain.
Restaurants,
you
as
a
board
of
commissioners,
do
not
want
to
spoil
the
purity
of
the
town,
so
you
do
not
allow
chain,
restaurants
in
the
historic
areas
you
are
dealing
with
the
same
similar
stigma
now
from
the
safety
concerns.
I
would
like
to
emphasize
to
you
once
again
a
traffic
safety
aspect
of
the
corner
of
grand
and
Park,
and
here's
my
research
on
that.
AH
AH
This
section
of
park
from
alt
19
all
the
way
to
Grand
is
a
one-way
street
and
it
18
feet
wide
Park
Street
on
the
west
side
on
the
grand
area
adjacent
to
the
property
in
this
application
is
a
two-way
street.
At
this,
at
times,
you
have
to
actually
scrape
the
curb
in
order
to
safely
pass
another
vehicle
and
I
know
you
would
ask.
AH
Why
is
that
and
I
can
tell
you
that
part
Street,
the
west
of
the
grant,
granbull
var,
is
only
17
feet
wide
17
feet
wide,
which
is
a
minimum
suggested
with
for
residential
street
without
it
truck
traffic,
and
this
is
a
two-way
street.
That
means
that
you
will
have
a
hard
time
turning
into
part
of
our
street
from
grand
or
when
a
small
ball
trailer
comes
from
the
Turtle
Cove
or
a
truck
from
Helles.
You
you'll
not
get
through.
AH
AH
This,
combined
with
the
lack
of
designated,
throw
a
truck
route
to
the
historic
district
and
a
lack
of
parking
egress
from
the
pink
apartments
where
the
cars
are
backing
out,
because
we
did
not
make
the
provisions
for
enough
parking
spaces
and
it
turn
around.
The
property
already
makes
the
corner
of
grand
and
park
a
very,
very
unsafe,
and
now
we
want
to
put
more
traffic
and
a
higher
density
area
in
this
area.
In
the
this
intersection,
it
doesn't
make
sense.
AH
I
would
like
to
thank
the
police
chief
for
more
police
presence
and
for
speedy
indicator
that
was
placed
on
this
property
after
the
last
meeting.
This
is
pic
picture.
Three
and
four
I
observed
this.
This
device
myself
on
Monday
morning,
however
I,
wasn't
able
to
really
decipher
how
fast
the
cars
were
going
because
anything
over
30
miles
an
hour.
You
just
flash
slow
down.
AH
Commissioners,
please
put
yourself
in
our
situation.
If
those
apartments
were
being
built
next
to
your
house,
how
would
you
vote
and
I
am
so
glad
that
you're
representing
the
people
of
Tarpon
Springs,
the
city
of
many
families,
not
only
one
family
during
the
last
meeting,
a
lot
was
said
about
a
character
for
the
family.
That's
gonna,
build
this
property.
AH
Well,
I,
understand
the
loyalty
to
long-term
residents
and
I.
Don't
knock
you
for
that,
and
I
admire
those
that
can
put
their
own
reputation
on
the
line
for
others.
Please
do
not
forget.
The
long-term
residents
are
opposed
to
rezoning
as
well.
Please
consider
that
in
your
decision-making,
you
have
heard
many
emotional
speeches
over
last
two
hearings
over
safety
issues
and
and
it's
all
about
the
town,
people
that
care
about
the
the
growth
of
the
city,
but
the
growth
in
the
right
direction.
A
high
density
area
in
this
neighborhood
is
truly
not
in
the
right
direction.
AH
AH
All
these
neighbors
are
very
concerned
over
safety
issues,
traffic
impact
crime,
water,
runoff,
the
infrastructure
capability
in
appearance
of
the
neighborhood
that
comes
with
apartment,
complex
and
I,
stand
united
with
them.
So,
even
though
I
am
very
open-minded
individual,
if
you
see
the
research
that
I
have
done,
I
am
still
against
rezoning.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.

have
a
property
at
one
one.
Six
Reade
Street
I
will
be
very
brief
because
I
spoke
at
the
other
two
meetings.
I
concur
with
the
other
people
who
are
opposed
to
the
rezoning
change
and
I
questioned
as
the
property
has
been
zoned,
single-family
appropriate
for
three
houses.
Why
would
there
now
be
the
desire
to
change
it
to
multi-family
housing
I
mean
at
one
point.
AI
AJ
Steve
cynic
is
here
I'm
at
four
three
one:
four,
three
one
grand
I
lived
almost
next
door
to
st.
Michael's
and
almost
next
door
to
the
property
in
question.
Mr.
mayor
Allen,
who
says
you
did
a
magnificent
job
in
describing
the
history
of
Tarpon
Springs
I
was
going
to
bring
up
something,
but
I
think
you
covered
it
very
well.
I
was
going
to
start
with
what
made
Tarpon
Springs
famous.
AJ
There's
a
metaphysical
aspect
of
them:
st.
Michael's,
the
really
religiosity
of
the
situation
that
property
was
bequeathed
by
mr.
Cantona's
for
a
moderate,
some
to
be
used
as
parking
for
st.
Michael's.
There
has
been
conjecture
as
to
whether
the
property,
if
it
was
changed,
the
zoning
was
changed,
whether
or
not
it
would
be
sold
and
what
what
would
be
built
on
that
property
in
the
future
mix
use
a
building
with
mixed-use
building
would
be
part
of
a
multi
multi
zoning.
Our
our
theme
are
115.
Residential
multifamily
allows
mixed-use.
Building
on
that
property.
AJ
AJ

That
property
should
be
family
homes,
people
that
are
vested
not
only
in
the
neighborhood,

our

know
no
one
has
a
crystal

and
can
tell
what
kind
of
people
are
gonna
move
in
or
move
out
whatever.
But
when
I
looked
at
these
incidents
reports,
I
was
actually
appalled
at
not
even
thinking
about
what
kind
of
incidents
happen.

the
Eureka
apartments
had
police
activity
a
lot
400
Roosevelt
there's
been
no
police
activity,
so
that's
our
building
and
that's
the
type
of
landlords
that
we
are.
We
screen
our
tenants
and
we
make
sure
they're
pretty
good
tenants.
As
for
parking,
the
lot
was
never
purchased
for
the
parking
of
st.
Michael's.
St.
Michael's
was
always
built
in
1912
uilt
in
1941
and
I'm
sure.
Mr.
AC
mayor,
you
know
all
this
that
no
there
was
never
a
parking
lot
thought
of
when
the
shrine
was
built
and
I
can
go
a
little
bit
deeper
on
some
conversation
with
the
owner
of
the
shrine
and
I'm
talking
about
the
spiritual
owner
of
the
shrine
and
has
only
talked
about
building
a
shrine,
not
a
parking
lot.
The
value
of
the
properties.
If
you
go
from
Division
Street
north
to
the
docks,
drive
up
and
down
the
streets
and
tell
me
what
you
see.
That's
all
I'm
going
to
say.
Tell
me
what
you
see.
AC
You're
gonna,
see
a
new
project.
Here,
that's
going
to
value,
raise
the
value
of
the
properties
in
the
neighborhood,
not
decrease
it.
As
for
all
the
other
concerns
they
keep
talking
about,
there
I
shouldn't
be
penalized
for
the
turns
the
city
gives
me
the
right
to
do
this
rezoning
and
if
they
didn't
want
to
do
it,
this
shouldn't
be
there
available
for
me
to
pursue
Thank
You.
D
J
Will
continue
my
mine
on
support
of
this
item?
I
typically,
you
know
impro
development,
but
I
do
have
some
concerns
with
it
would
be
with
the
compatibility
of
this
rezoning
on
that
property
and,
and
typically,
what
has
been
done
before
when
we
have
issues
like
that,
Department
is
unique.
We
only
have
so
many
more
more
more
more
areas
to
build,
so
we
give
that
respect
to
to
to
developers
they
would
assimilate
a
site
plan
for
because,
as
mr.
Vinson
very
well
pointed
out,
it's
not
just
a
simple
rezoning
by
rezoning.
J
We
are
than
allowing
things
to
happen
and
I
think
when
you
have
a
piece
of
property
which
is
very
sensitive,
that
submits
that
having
a
developer,
submit
a
site
plan.
First,
is
a
gesture
of
goodwill
and
helps
us
help
them.
Well,
you
know
you
give
it
give
it
give
it
give
it
give
it
give
them
an
approval
like
was
done
with
Bay
Shore
Heights.
So,
as
was
stated
very
clearly
in
the
first
reading,
the
applicant
does
not
wish
to
submit
it's
like
playing.
J
M
You,
you
know
a
lots
been
brought
out
here
again
this
evening,
like
at
our
first
meeting
and
I
still
stand
by
approving
this
zoning
change.
You
know
when
we
talk
about
gunshots.
I
was
in
your
area,
I
was
on
Roosevelt.
The
a
friend
and
I
had
to
call
the
police,
because
there
was
somebody
shooting
a
rifle
or
shotgun
I,
don't
even
know
the
difference
between
those
two
things,
but
anyway,
I'm
not
a
gun
person
but
I
know
I,
don't
like
them
and
somebody
shot.
One
I
had
to
call
the
police
department.
M
The
shots
came
from
a
house
on
Roosevelt,
they
didn't
come
from
the
apartments.
They
came
from
a
house.
The
SWAT
team
came
out,
they
closed
the
streets
down,
they
arrested
the
person,
so
it
didn't
come
from
an
apartment
and
to
compare
what
happens
at
the
Eureka
apartments.
That's
not
fair
either
to
our
applicant
or
the
situation.
We
don't
know
who
would
be
renting
from
from
the
applicant
and
I'm
sure
he
I'm
sure
they'll
have
some
criteria
and
we'll
screen
their
screen.
There.
M
People,
people
that
want
to
come,
live
there,
but
again
that
really
shouldn't
have
anything
to
do
with.
What
we're
here
tonight
and
discussing
is
what
we're
discussing
is
rezoning
at
this
point
traffic.
There
would
be
a
traffic
study
when
it
comes
to
site
plan
again,
there's
so
many
other
issues
that
you've
all
brought
up
this
evening
that
do
come
at
at
site
plan
review,
and
this
this
past
hour,
Planning
and
Zoning
Board.
M
Six
to
one
and
honestly
I
know
there
was
some
comments
that
alluded
to
us
rubber-stamping
what
our
staff
recommends,
and
that
is
certainly
not
true.
Certainly
not
true
we're
here
to
study
the
facts
and
take
into
consideration
all
the
facts
and
there's
many
times
we
don't
agree,
or
at
least
I
know,
I,
don't
agree
with
what
staff
has
to
say.
We
do
rely
on
their
expertise
at
times,
but
we're
not
rubber-stamping
what
they
are
suggesting
again.
This
did
get.
This
project
was
approved.
Six
to
one
with
planning.
D
P
P
D
H
You
thank
you
all
for
coming
and
I
appreciate
your
concerns
and
speaking
here
tonight
we
talked
about
this
property
as
it
becoming
a
future
crime
scene
and
I
know
we
don't
have
a
site
plan
and
I
agree
that
maybe
we
should
have
a
site
plan,
but
we're
talking
about
rezoning
and
this
property
is
zoned
for
up
to
three
single-family
homes.
So
there
would
be
traffic
with
three
families
living
there
as
well,
so
that
the
increase
in
traffic
I
don't
see
the
increase
in
crime.
H
Vileplume
Oso
is
down
the
street
I,
don't
think
they've
brought
crime
to
that
to
the
neighborhood.
It's
a
very
well-respected
condo.
So
I
don't
see
that
because
it's
an
apartment
that
it
couldn't
be
a
nice
place
that
brings
value
to
the
to
the
community
or
to
that
neighborhood
I,
go
by
there
a
hundred
times
a
day.
H
I
do
see
things
that
go
on
at
Eureka
apartments
and
I
and
I'm,
appalled
but
I,
don't
think
and
anything
that
comes
before
us
as
far
as
a
site
plan
or
anything
that
we
must
see
or
planning
and
zoning
let's
see
has
to
be
approved
before
we.
You
know
before
he
goes
forward
mr.
Tiger
alley.
So
as
far
as
drainage
and-
and
you
know
what
the
place
will
look
like,
those
are
all
things
that
have
to
be
approved.
H
We're
planning
zoning,
it's
a
long
process
and
that
SCI
plan
could
increase
your
property
values
and
take
care
of
your
drainage
issues
and
and
he'll
build
build
something.
That's
that's
nice
there
and
and
increase
your
values
like
I,
said
so.
I
stand
by
my
vote
last
week
as
well
and
and
allowing
the
application
to
be
approved.
A
For
being
here
tonight,
it's
9:00
it's
after
nine
o'clock,
and
you
still
here
tells
me
how
much
you
concern
and
I
will.
Thank
you
for
all
the
letters
that
you
send
us
expressing
your
opinions,
and
you
can
turn
there's
no
question
my
mind
that
mr.
Tager
Ali
is
going
to
put
a
nice
build
in
there.
But
the
question
is
not
the
quality
of
the
building.
We
know
that
we
need
more
housing
here
in
time
for
spring,
but
also
we
from
hearing
from
all
the
neighbors
that
there's
a
concern.
There's
a
safety
concern.
A
S
D
A
B
A
R
I'm
sure
somebody
else
is
gonna
talk
about
the
benefit
for
the
fire
firing
child
on
Friday
and
we
got
touch-a-truck
on
Saturday.
So
there's
there's
there's
two
good
events.
Obviously
the
clerk
I
don't
want
to
steal
your
thunder
so
I'll.
Let
pilot
her
talk
about
the
great
job
that
we've
done,
for
what
we're
gonna
see
on
Friday,
but
again
touch
the
trucks
a
little
early
this
year,
we're
trying
a
little
early.
So
it's
gonna
be
a
bang,
bang,
good
events
on
Friday
and
Saturday.
Hopefully
everybody
make
it.
AL
Just
touch
real
quickly
on
the
spaghetti,
dinner,
I
believe
we're
sold
out
as
of
today
and
ticket
wise.
However,
we're
still
accepting
donations
for
the
cause
and
we'd
like
to
thank
everyone
who
has
donated
wonderful
items
to
be
in
our
silent
auction,
so
enjoy
it's
gonna,
be
from
3
to
7
on
Friday
the
23rd
I'm.
A
M
M
Also
this
weekend,
the
Elks
Lodge
is
having
a
health
and
safety
fair.
We
are
giving
out
free
backpacks
filled
with
all
kinds
of
items
for
the
children,
they'll
be
drug
awareness.
There
there'll
be,
our
police
department
will
be
their
doctor.
Didonato
a
fire
department
hasn't
responded.
Yet
we've
asked
the
fire
department
to
be
there.
M
We'll
have
hot
dogs
and
snow
cones
and
some
healthy
food
as
well.
It's
it's
a
free
event
and
again
it's
to
promote
health
and
safety
to
the
children.
So
please
come
out.
It's
on
this
Sunday
from
12
to
3
and
I
believe
the
cap
Center
has
their
fundraisers
fundraiser
as
well
on
Sunday,
which
starts
at
3
o'clock
at
Innisbrook,
which
I
plan
on
being
there
as
well.
So
we
have
a
busy
weekend
in
town,
I,
guess.
M
M
D
J
Thank
you.
I
am
excited
for
the
spaghetti
dinner
on
Friday,
though
I
don't
eat
spaghetti.
Obviously,
but
that
shows
you
look
my
community
that
we
live
in,
not
saying
nobody
else
would
do
that
everything
anywhere
else,
but
the
response
we've
gone
that
were
sold
out
that
are
you
going
to
Brooks
office?
You
see
the
vast
amounts
of
things
that
have
been
donated.
It
should
be
encouraging
that
we
do
that
for
our
own
here
and
I'm,
not
surprised
at
all
and
a
reminder.
We
do
have
a
meatless
sauce
right
Irene.
We.
AL
B
J
If
you're
celebrating
that
so
when
I
was
in
Dublin
last
but
last
week,
as
you
all
saw
on
Facebook
I
got
to
meet
the
Lord
Mayor
of
Dublin,
give
me
to
be
the
V
city
of
Tarpon,
Springs
I'm,
not
sure
he
knew
where
Tampa
Bay
was
tarpon
springs
but
I.
You
know
we
gave
him
a
statue.
The
Irene
gave
me
a
little
sponge
over
my
wife
brought
him
some
soap
and
the
docs
and
then
a
sponge
from
Athena
shop
and
some
soaps
and
then
some
starfish
for
the
beach.
She
got
him.
J
So
he
was
very
overwhelmed
and
assured
that
he's
ever
around
these
parts
that
he
will
come
here
so
nice
little
opportunity
to
do
that.
Any
reminder
when
we're
all
traveling,
whether
it's
a
domestic
or
abroad,
we're
all
up
we're
all
ambassadors
of
Tarpon
and
to
take
those
opportunities,
as
you
can
so
think.
D
H
You
yes,
I'll,
be
at
the
spaghetti
dinner
I'm
looking
forward
to
it,
and
the
cap
Center
is
having
their
fundraiser
at
Innisbrook
at
3
o'clock
on
Sunday
I'm.
Glad
touch-a-truck
is
a
little
earlier,
so
everyone
can
come
to
the
wine
walk
at
4
o'clock
right
after
that,
so
the
wine
walk
is
from
4:00
to
8:00
we're
almost
sold
out
with
tickets
at
this
point,
so
it's
always
a
very
successful
event
and
February,
especially
right
now
with
season
it's
quite
right
back
so
I
get
your
tickets.
If
you
haven't
gotten
them
already,.
A
P
Like
oh,
what
happened
here
in
this
situation,
the
cops
were
helping
the
woman
put
gas
in
her
car
I
thought
was
refreshing
to
see
ever
really
felt,
like
a
small
town,
seeing
the
cops
help
out
a
local
resident
or
visitor
whoever
it
was,
and
then
I
also
saw
on
social
media
yesterday,
a
similar
situation
where
another
police
officer
was
helping
pushing
a
vehicle
into
a
parking
spot
that
broke
down
as
well.
So
again,
thank
you
to
your
staff,
that's
working
with
the
residents.
It's
encouraging
to
see
it
feels
like
a
small
town.
P
A
Thank
you,
I'm,
not
going
to
repeat
all
the
same
things
you
already
said,
but
I
like
to
remind
everyone
that
March
1st
Thursday
March
1st,
we'll
have
the
a
Sunset
Beach
concert
and
that's
not
the
7
p.m.
that's
a
free
event
and
it's
a
very
popular
on
Friday
March,
2nd.
We
have
the
first
Friday.
This
is
a
very
popular
event
that
begins
to
6
p.m.
so
10
p.m.
on
tarpon
Avenue.
I
also
like
to
welcome
the
new
businesses
in
tarpon
pit,
yoga,
Factory
and
Oddie
pearl.
