No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
A
B
Miss
hall
here,
mr
bushman,
is
absent.
He
may
be
at
a
meeting
later
on
here.
Miss
major,
miss
howard
here.
A
B
You
can
do
it
either
way
you
can
go
down
if
anybody,
volunteers
or
you
can
take
nominations
from
those
present.
B
B
C
A
Can
leave
school.
Your
budget
is
just
cut
ten
percent.
Okay,
let's
go
over
to
the
position
of
vice
chair.
I
will
say
that
don
who
may
or
may
not
be
here
through
the
email
has
indicated
he
would
be
willing,
if,
if
so
chosen
by
the
group,
but
put
it
out
to
anyone
else,.
A
Don
don
in
his
email.
A
Introduce
you
today
he
had.
B
A
F
F
We
have
so
many
different
hacks
that
are
trying
at
any
given
time.
We
are
a
24
7
staff,
so
we
are
on
call
24
7
and
when
we
get
a
notification
of
any
type
of
anything
that
could
remotely
be
a
problem
for
the
city,
we're
immediately
on
it,
and
we
have
never
been
compromised
in
the
nine
years
that
I
have
been
here,
and
that
is
because
we
are
so
on
the
ball
with
these
types
of
problems
that
we
have.
F
So
we
make
sure
safety
first
always
in
I.t,
so
that
is
an
increase
because
we
have
had
an
overwhelming
just
so
many
we
probably
get
oh,
probably
five,
to
ten
different
problems
during
the
evenings
that
we
have
to
attend
to
immediately
to
make
sure
we
block
different
things.
So
that
was
the
increase
there.
F
Yes,
well,
we
actually
hired
internally
and
the
individual
that
we
hired
has
been
here
for
about
five
years.
His
name
is
daniel
overson
and
he
was
able,
I
trained
him
up
through
the
ranks
and
he
was
able
to
get
his
certification,
which
is
the
highest
certification
in
the
world.
For
cyber
security,
it's
called
the
cissp
and
he
did
get
that
certification
before
he
took
the
job
for
cyber
security
and
he's
doing
fantastic.
F
F
We
have
some
increases
in
professional
services
and
other
contractual
services,
and
I
want
to
explain
that
just
a
little
bit
when
I
first
came
here,
we
had
a
lot
of
consultants
for
a
lot
of
different
things
and
they
were
all
250
an
hour,
and
I
found
that
I
was
actually
doing
on-the-job
training
for
these
consultants
at
250
an
hour
and
that
we
actually
knew
more
than
they
did,
and
I
wasn't
happy
with
that.
F
So
I
found
an
individual
who
has
been
now
with
the
city
over
10
years
and
we
pay
him
about
25
an
hour.
He
knows
our
infrastructure,
he
knows
our
servers,
he
knows
how
we
operate
and
I'm
not
paying
him
250
an
hour,
so
that
worked
out
really
really
well,
and
I
like
doing
that,
I
like
having
people
that
we
can,
on
a
part-time
basis,
that
we
can
call
that
know
us
and
that
can
dive
right
in
and
I'm
not
paying
him
250
an
hour.
So.
F
Temporary
correct-
and
so
you
know,
we
use
him
for
server
updates
hardening
of
our
servers,
making
sure
that
anything
reviewing
logs,
because
we
get
so
many
logs,
so
many
logs
everything
that
we
don't
have
time
to
on.
You
know
a
normal
day-to-day
basis,
he's
just
kind
of
over
seeing
and
making
sure
that
all
of
our
patches
are
correct.
Any
type
of
little
projects
that
he's
wonderful
at
that.
We
can
give
him
that,
and
I
don't
have
to
pay
the
big
money
for
firewalls
or
things
like
that
he
can
just
take
over.
F
So
there
was
a
little
bit
of
an
increase
in
that
due
to
the
fact
that
we
have
many
more
servers
due
to
cyber
security
and
then
our
travel
per
diem
that
only
went
up
because
we
weren't
able
to
go
anywhere
for
kovid.
F
So
you
know
we
do
have
some
training
that
we
really
would
like
to
take
depending
on
how
busy
we
are.
If
we're.
If
we're
you
know
we're
able
to
go,
we
would
like
to
go,
but
that's
not
set
in
stone,
but
it's
just
a
little
bump
and
then
we
have
our
repairs
and
maintenance
went
up
25,
and
that
was
due
to
our
continued
microsoft,
migration
to
office
365..
F
Currently,
we
have
two
separate
clusters.
We
have
one
at
city
hall
and
we
have
one
at
the
public
safety
building
and
they
replicate
amongst
each
other.
In
the
event,
one
goes
down.
The
other
can
take
up
immediately
depending
on
you
know,
which
one
is
up
or
down
and
to
be
more
cost
effective.
We
really
do
need
to
migrate
those
servers
virtually
to
the
cloud.
I
don't
want
to
have
to
replace
another
cluster
of
servers
locally.
F
F
It
will
be
ongoing
this
these
all
of
these
are
correct.
All
of
this
will
be
an
ongoing
fee,
but
we
did
cost
comparisons
and
each
of
our
server
clusters
were
about
a
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars
each,
and
we
have
to
replace
those
every
three
to
five
years
and
then
the
hard
drives.
We
have
many
many
hard
drives
that
are
in.
F
They
fail
all
the
time
we
have
to
so
all
of
the
maintenance
upkeep
having
to
do
with
physical
servers,
and
we
have
many
many
many
servers,
so
we
actually
took
all
of
those
individual
servers.
We
virtualized
them
into
the
two
separate
clusters,
so
we
took
60
servers
over
here
and
another
75
servers
physical
units.
F
F
Do
you
have
right
now
we
have
about
150,
but
we
will
have
250
once
we
do
migrate
everyone,
but
not
all
of
them
need
all
of
the
services.
We
have
some
users
that
only
need
email.
They
don't
use.
Microsoft
word,
you
know.
If
you
work
in
public
works,
maybe
you're
not
doing
any
data
processing
you
just
need.
You
know
you
need
your
email,
so
you
can
communicate
so
that
license
will
be
a
little
bit
less,
but
we
have
not
migrated
any
of
those
users.
F
F
Sure,
well,
the
cloud
is
depending
on
what
vendor
you
use.
You
could
use
amazon
cloud
services,
you
could
use
microsoft
services
currently
right
now
we
have
to
use
government
services
through
microsoft
and
it's
a
special
division
where
it's
secured
and
only
united
states
citizens
work
on
our
servers
and
it's
only
in
the
continental,
united
states.
F
We
can't
change
because
we're
a
government
entity
so
yeah
at
present
we
could
go
to
amazon
aws,
which
is
another
cloud
broker,
but
I
wasn't
for
fdle
purposes.
I
wasn't
happy
with
their
in
the
beta
stages
of
getting
certified
and
I
wasn't
really
happy
with
the
way
that
their
security
was.
I
was
very
comfortable
with
united
states,
soil,
united
states
citizens
and
the
security
that
was
with
microsoft.
F
F
F
If,
if
we
didn't
go
to
the
cloud,
you
can
only
have
one
person
working
on
a
file
at
one
time
when
we
go
to
the
cloud,
all
of
you
guys
can
go
into
one
document
and
you
can
see
as
you're
modifying
the
file.
You
can
see
who's
doing
it
and
it
automatically
saves
and
you
going
towards
our
mobility
approach
for
the
future
and
for
disaster
recovery.
F
You
could
be
at
a
hotel,
you
could
be
in
france,
you
could
be
anywhere
in
the
world
accessing
this
file
and
monito
and
taking
care
of
it
instead
of
being
right
here.
So
we
we
definitely
are
on
a
path
to
mobility
here
at
the
city
and
microsoft.
365
is
the
way
that
we
are
migrating
there,
so
there
will
be
more.
B
So
I
have
a
question
so
it
you
said
next
year.
You
expect
it
to
sort
of
go
up.
Do
you
two
questions
actually
are
we,
we
generally
are
largely
in
line
with
other
fully
managed
cities
so
correct.
B
Yeah,
maybe
if
you
have
any
details
on
that,
if
we're
kind
of
in
line
with
some
of
the
other
cities-
and
the
second
question,
would
you
expect
when
we
do
get
migrate,
get
rid
of
some
of
the
hardware
or
what
whatever
you're
sort
of
managing
now
that
there
would
be
a
reduction
at
some
point
right.
F
Right
well,
the
reduction
would
be.
We
won't
have
to
replace
those
two
gigantic
server
clusters
that
we
have.
They
will
no
longer
be
there.
So
the
you
know
right
now.
We
have
climate
controlled
data,
centers
that
we
have
to
maintain.
We
have
these
these
devices
we
have
to
spare
parts,
for
we
make
sure
everything
has
to
run.
I
have
to
make
sure
everything's
up
when
it's
in
the
cloud.
I
just
need
to
make
sure
I
have.
I
have
good
internet
connectivity
and
redundancy.
F
You
know
I
have
three
different
internet
sources.
If
one
goes
down
the
other
automatically
pops
right
in
you
guys,
don't
even
see
it
so
the
reduction
of
all
of
that
goes
away
and
for
disaster
recovery.
If
we
get
hit
by
a
hurricane,
we
simply
drive
to
georgia
and
we
log
right
on.
You
know
right
now.
Our
plan
is,
we
have
to
get
with
the
fire
department.
F
F
We
are
way
ahead
of
all
other
cities
and
we
are
way
ahead
because
we
were
very
forward
thinking
and
we
have
a
strategic
plan
that
we
follow
going
towards
the
future.
We
update
it
annually.
We
make
sure
that
we
look
at
everything
that
we're
doing
and
we
plan
towards
where
our
goals
are.
So
we
are
way
ahead
and
we're
very
proud
of
that
too,
and.
B
B
Several
other
people,
who've
been
before
us
in
the
last
couple
weeks,
have
mentioned
trouble
with
keeping
employees
and
they're
leaving
because
of
the
ability
to
work
remotely
elsewhere.
Things
like
that
with
the
cloud
migration
you
mentioned
mobility.
Is
that
part
of
the
future
that
you
that
will
help
with
that,
or
is
that
something
that,
from
a
government
standpoint
can't
be
done.
F
Okay,
well,
there's
you
know,
I
can
speak
to
that
just
a
little
bit,
but
we
are
working
towards
a
platform.
You
know
when
we
were
at
covet.
Everyone
was
working
from
home.
We
we
seamlessly
we're
ready,
for.
We
were
ready
for
that.
Everyone
can
go
home
and
work
from
home
seamlessly
right
now,
but
as
a
government
entity,
especially
in
my
staff,
also
even
I.t,
we
can
work
from
home
and
you
guys
don't
even
know
we're.
There.
F
F
What's
going
on,
I
want
to
assess
the
situation
you
know
so
being
in
government
we're
here
for
the
citizens,
so
I
do
feel
that
that,
even
though
you
know
a
lot
of
people
like
to
work
from
home,
I
do
think
that
as
a
government
entity-
and
we
are
working
for
the
citizens,
we
do
need
to
be
physically
present.
The
majority
of
the
time.
A
F
Okay,
that's
that's
ron
herring.
I
had
your
feeling,
but
I
can
tell
you
a
little
bit
what
that
is
the
library
at
our
current
library.
We
have
7d
computers
at
our
library,
which
is
quite
a
bit
and
they
that
interoffice
allocation
is
from
the
library
and
there
was
a
reduction
in
computers.
I
actually
got
them
to
bring
it
down
to
about
50
computers
this
year.
H
H
It
because
I
think
a
lot
of
our
expenses
when
we're
figuring
the
charges
for
fire
and
library
we're
down,
but
we
don't
know
if
it's
because
of
the
covid
year
and
we're
going
to
go
back
and
revisit
that
maybe
do
a
five-year
average
of
those
charges.
But
since
it
went
down
it
increases
suzanne's
budget.
A
A
F
That
is
the
increase,
the
replacement
of
the
voip
and
data
switches.
Voips
are
our
city,
phones
and
the
data
switches
are
all
of
our
cat5
cabling
that
connects
everything
throughout
the
city.
Our
switches
are
over
10
years
old
and
they
are
end
of
life
and
they
need
to
be
replaced.
F
G
F
G
F
They
are
modular,
so
some
of
our
licenses,
some
of
our
users,
get
everything
because
they
use
everything,
but
some
of
our
users
only
use
email.
So
we
don't
want
to
give
them
the
whole
package.
We
only
need
to
give
them
a
license
for
email,
because
that's
all
they
need
so
we
go
through
and
we
have
only
migrated
the
people
that
use
everything
right
now,
because
we
wanted
to
test
everything
out
before
we
bring
the
others
on
board.
So.
F
A
I
All
right,
good
afternoon,
everybody,
my
name-
is
scott
young.
I'm
the
fire
chief
brought
a
couple.
People
with
me,
melissa
our
executive
assistant,
who
helps
run
the
budget
for
us
and
deputy
chief
meisner
the
operations
chiefs.
So
I
just
have
a
quick
little
presentation
here.
I
won't
take
that
long
and
get
to
so
many
questions
you
want.
As
you
can
see,
our
post
proposed
budget
is
just
a
little
over
6.4
million
dollars.
I
Here's
a
breakdown
of
the
last
five
years.
You
can
see
how
it
has
gone
up.
It's
gone
up
almost
a
million
dollars
in
the
last
five
years.
Most
of
that
is
due
to
personnel
services,
salaries,
pensions,
etc,
costs
for
that
here's,
a
breakdown
of
our
budgeted
vehicles.
This
year
we
have
our
new
pierce
engine
that
we
are
expecting
to
show
up.
Probably
in
about
a
month.
It's
been
a
little
over
a
year
to
get
it
in.
I
The
city
is
doing
a
five-year
lease
on
the
vehicle,
a
payment
of
178
000
of
over
five
years.
The
first
payment
is
due
a
month
after
it's
delivered
and,
as
you
can
see,
they're
a
nine
point.
Excuse
me
nine
point.
Six
percent
of
that
is
also
paid
by
the
pinellas
county
of
the
truck.
The
ladder
truck
is
also
a
lease.
I
It
is
going
to
have
its
fourth
payment
of
239
000
this
year.
It
is
also
a
five-year
lease
and
again
this
county
pays
9.6
of
that
payment.
Each
year
we
just
got
approved
generously
by
the
commission
to
order
another
engine.
We
just
did
this
in
the
last
couple
months.
I
The
reason
we
did
it
a
little
earlier
than
we
would
anticipate
is
because
the
production
time
of
these
trucks
now
is
over
two
years.
We
proactively
looked
at
it.
The
finance
director
ron-
and
I
talked
about
it.
If
we
were
going
to
do
a
lease,
we
thought
we
were
going
to
need
to
do
it
because
we
kept
hearing
about
the
interest
rates
going
up.
Thank
god.
I
Looking
at
today,
we
probably
did
the
right
thing:
we're
paying
like
three
percent
interest
on
this
truck,
but
it'll
be
two
years
before
we
have
to
make
the
big
payments
next
year,
we'll
have
to
make
an
interest,
only
payment
of
the
27
000
and
then,
when
the
truck
arrives
a
month
after
that,
we'll
make
the
first
payment.
I
So
I
think,
thankfully,
we
looked
ahead
and
that
that'll
coincide
with
the
other
payments.
The
latter
truck
payment
should
be
done
then,
so
we
won't
have
three
payments.
We'll
only
have
two
and
that's
where
we've
been
trying
to
keep
it,
but
we
only
have
no
more
than
two
payments
on
any
of
the
trucks,
but
with
the
lead
time
we
had
to
act.
Those
are
the
only
other
vehicles
we
have
in
the
budget.
You
can
see
what's
projected
coming
up
over
the
next
few
years.
I
I
don't
believe
we'll
have
another
payment
need
to
order
a
truck
until
about
2026..
I
Depending
again
what
happens
on
lead
times,
we
might
have
to
readjust
that
if
need,
hopefully,
they'll
come
back
down
to
a
normal
one
year,
but
so
here's
how
some
some
of
our
funding
works.
We
get
money
from
pinellas
county.
We
have
an
ems
contract
with
pinellas
county
to
provide
emergency
medical
services
for
the
citizens.
The
county
pays
1.7
million
dollars
for
us.
They
give
us
each
year.
That's
for
ems
supplies.
I
They
pay
for
nine
paramedics
in
our
department
what
we
budgeted
last
year.
This
is
a
4.41
increase
from
last
year.
I
We
also
get
money
from
pinellas
county
for
a
fire
contract,
we're
getting
562
000
this
year.
This
is
up
7.31
from
last
year.
This
is
to
cover
fire
areas
of
the
unincorporated
areas
within
our
city,
so
they
give
us
money
for,
for
that,
that's
the
money
that
comes
for
the
trucks
and
stuff
like
that
out
of
the
fire
contract,
that's
what
it's
based
on.
We
also
get
some
specialty
money
that
we've
been
working
on
over
the
last
few
years
from
the
county
we
get
for
our
fire
boat.
I
They
give
us
ten
thousand
dollars
a
year
for
maintenance
and
things
for
our
fire
boat.
Five
thousand
dollars
for
our
small
marine
unit
and
new
this
year
is
fifteen
thousand
dollars
for
our
new
dive
team
that
we're
putting
in
place
there's
only
two
other
dive
teams
in
pinellas
county
there's,
one
in
st
pete
one
in
clearwater
and
now
tarpon
will
be
the
third
one,
so
we'll
have
a
north,
south
and
mid
county,
so
we're
working
on
that
they
just
gave
us
about
one
a
little
over
twenty
thousand
dollars
to
get.
I
It
started,
which
we're
working
on
now
and
from
this
point
four
we'll
get
fifteen
thousand.
So
hopefully
that
team
is
up
and
running
in
the
next
by
the
end
of
the
year.
I
So
here's
our
personnel
expenditures
from
the
last
couple
years.
We
2021
we're
at
4.9
this
year
we
are
at
5.4
again
personnel
services
costs
are
part
of
the
our
time,
pays:
tax,
social
security,
taxes,
retirement
benefits,
health
insurance,
etc.
Our
operating
expenditures
this
year
are
950
000.
You
can
see
where
it
was
over
the
last
couple
years.
So
not
a
huge
increase.
We've
been
trying
to
keep
the
costs
down
the
best
we
can.
I
So
here's
how
the
budget
really
breaks
down
county
funding
is
about
2.3
million
dollars.
That's
for
the
fire
and
ems
contracts
that
we
have.
The
city's
portion
of
our
budget
is
4.1
million
dollars.
That's
where
we
come
up
with
our
four
point.
I
mean
our
6.4
million
dollar
budget,
and
with
that
I
can
answer
any
type
of
questions
you
might
have.
A
Scott
just
looking
at
the
the
detail-
and
I
know
you
have
a
combination
of
I'm-
going
to
call
it
salaries
and
then
the
union
showing
personnel
service
in
total
up
about
seven
percent.
Correct
special
pay
is
up.
11.
A
H
I
I
You
never
know,
what's
going
to
happen,
hurricanes
come
in
fmla,
I
have
a
young
department,
lots
of
babies
happening
over
there,
so
people
are
taking
their
12
weeks.
We
just
happen
to
have
in
the
last
couple
years,
three
or
four
people
out
at
one
time
so
they're
gone
for
12
weeks.
We
have
to
backfill
all
those
positions.
I
Unlike
a
lot
of
jobs,
somebody
calls
out
sick.
You
know
they're
just
gone
for
the
day
when
somebody
in
our
age
business
calls
out
sick.
We
have
to
call
somebody
back
in
that
way.
We
keep
the
trucks
rolling.
So
overtime
is
a
real
tough
thing
for
police
and
fire
for
us
to
come
under
budget.
I
haven't
seen
that
so
we
trying
to
get
a
handle
on
what
we
are
spending,
but
we've
been
increasing
it
over
the
last
couple
years.
So
we're
coming
a
little
bit
closer
to
our
goal
of
what
the
budget
is.
I
The
average
salary
in
our
department-
well
starting
pay
for
most
of
the
paramedics-
is
right.
Around
51,
52
000
right
most
of
the
the
average
would
probably
be
in
the
60s
70
thousands
after
overtime.
I
You
could
but
you're
still
going
to
have
overtime,
because
once
you
start
adding,
I
have
to
start
looking
at
the
vacation
times
sick
times.
How's
that
going
to
affect
it.
Am
I
still
going
to
be
calling
back
it
does
help.
I
will
tell
you
that,
right
now
we
are
waiting
on
hearing
from
a
safer
grant
that
we
have
out
waiting
a
coup
about
three.
Four
years
ago,
we
applied
for
a
safer
grant
through
fema
to
add
additional
people.
I
That
is
now
done.
So
we,
those
people
that
we
hired
back,
then
the
city
does
take
the
full
cost
of
them.
We
just
applied
for
another
one
of
those
for
three
more
people.
We
hope
before
the
budget
goes
into
place.
We'll
have
approval
for
that
and
that's
for
three
people
and
again
it'll
be
75,
75
and
35
to
increase
our
staffing,
which
we're
trying
to
do
is
get
these
people
on.
I
So
we
can
also
put
another
unit
in
service
that
we
just
got
approved
for
by
the
county
for
the
vehicle
alone,
which
is
about
two
years
out
to
get
so
once
the
county's
budget
is
approved,
we'll
purchase
the
vehicle
and
they'll
reimburse
us
for
this
vehicle
it'll
be
a
rescue
unit.
So
with
those
additional
people
I
will
be
able
to
put
that
in
the
service
and
hopefully
in
a
couple
years,
when
it's
one
of
our
lives
so.
A
I
I
It's
not
cheap
to
put
a
firefighter
on
the
average
cost,
is
a
bottle
over
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year
with
benefits
and
everything.
So
three
firefighters,
you're,
looking
at
300
000
plus
to
put
on
so
to
budget
that
it's
it's
it's
long-term
thinking,
so
you
can
take
it
out
of
reserves.
You
can
do
all
that,
but
then
how
do
you
fund
it
from
that
point
forward?
How
do
you
pay
for
it.
H
H
I
Are
you
talking
on
59.52,
yes,
52,
part
of
that
the
cost
increase
of
the
32
000
is
for
computers
that
it
wanted
us
to
get.
We
have
to
update
some
computers
in
our
trucks
that
are
now
end
of
life.
All
of
our
fire
apparatus
has
computers
that
are
linked
to
the
county,
gives
us
routing
information,
call
information,
they're
coming
up
to
be
replaced,
and
then
we're
also
having
to
replace
some
of
the
mattresses
at
the
one
station,
because
they're
10,
plus
almost
15
years
old,.
H
A
I
Well,
I
guess
we'll
see
it's
hard
to
tell
at
this
point
right
now.
Diesel
is
not
cheap.
That's
what
most
of
our
vehicles
run
on
the
trucks
we're
having
to
use
going
out
to
the
stations
right
now
and
I'm
signing
all
the
credit
card
purchases
and
on
an
average
day
each
truck
is
probably
putting
in
100
plus
every
day,
depending
on
how
busy
you
are
that
they
are
that
day.
I
We
never
let
our
trucks
go
down
below
half
a
tank
because
of
the
possibility
of
them
running
at
a
fire
all
night
long.
We
don't
want
to
have
them
below
half
so
they
they
have
a
policy
to
fill
them
at
half.
So
it's
like
yeah.
Hopefully,
hopefully
it
levels
off
so.
I
I
D
I'm
janina
lewis
procurement
services
director.
Basically,
we
are
a
relatively
small
department.
There's
been
no
major
changes
to
our
budget,
except
for
the
training.
D
The
reason
I'm
requesting
the
increase
in
the
training
is
because,
right
now
I
am
down
one
person
and
we
have
not
been
able
to
fill
the
position
and
I'm
afraid
I'm
going
to
have
to
take
someone
that
I'm
going
to
have
to
bring
up
to
speed.
So
I've
requested
the
travel
and
the
training
fees
to
be
increased.
D
A
D
A
D
However,
I
don't
think
I'm
going
to
fill
it
with
the
level
that
I
want
experience
wise,
which
is
basically
you
know.
Maybe
the
person
has
one
or
two
years
experience,
but
they're
not
like
a
fully
trained.
You
know
ready
to
go
operational
person.
D
We
run
anywhere
from
a
range
of
forty
seven
thousand
to
sixty
five
000.
I
believe
that's
the
average.
D
As
far
as
my
department
or
okay
in
my
department,
I
actually
I
see
some
good
trends.
One
trend
is
that
we
are
no
longer
going
to
be
required
to
do
legal
ads
for
every
construction
bid.
We
do
it'll
only
be
a
one-time
ad
a
year,
which
is
right
now
running
us
185,
an
ad
so
with
that
decrease
that'll,
take
a
lot
out
of
all
of
our
construction
bids,
because
right
now
that's
a
cost
that
we
put
forward
usually
out
of
the
project,
but
not
out
of
our
department,
but
we
budget
for
it.
D
D
Those
are
basically
our
like
top.
I
wish
I
could
say
paper
would
go
away,
but
it's
not
going
away
yet
so
we're
working
on
paperless.
We
have
gone
electronic
files
in
our
office
this
past
fiscal
year.
We
started
no
more
paper
folders,
so
that's
been
an
accomplishment
that
we've
been
working
on.
D
D
G
D
May
be,
like
we've
tried
to
initiate
anything
under
a
thousand
dollars
to
be
paid
with
credit
card,
but
the
problem
is
right
now,
with
the
small
business
vendors,
they
are
getting.
How
do
I
say,
attacked
by
the
visa
people
or
the
mastercard
people
on
their
third
charges?
So
I
choose
not
to
force
that
on
small
business,
vendors
or
any
vendors,
because
you
know
if
they
don't
want
to
pay
the
fee
to
those
banking
companies.
You
know
why
should
I
make
them
pay
it?
D
A
D
That's
the
j
turnover,
I
think
what
you're
seeing
is
when
jay
jacks
the
former
director
retired.
B
G
D
Is
that
he
had
been
here
longer
and
it's
just
through
experience
and
time,
but
you
have
the
same
duties
correct,
but
I
have
not
been
with
the
city
as
long
as
jay
had
when
he
took
the
position.
H
E
Good
afternoon
I'm
diane
wood,
I'm
the
director
of
cultural
and
civic
services
department
and
under
my
department,
is
the
library,
as
well
as
tarpon
arts,
which
is
our
performing
arts
venues.
I
do
have
our
current
season
brochure
and
our
four
venues
up
here
for
you.
I
would
be
happy
to
pass
those
out
if
you
you'd
like
I.
What
I
would
like
to
do
with
your
permission
is:
let
carrie
talk
about
the
library
first
and
then
I'll
address
the
performing
arts
aspect
of
it.
J
J
The
reason
for
this
is
to
show
the
true
cost
of
running
the
library
for
credit
on
the
county
library
system,
because
we're
part
of
the
pinellas
public
library
cooperative
and
they
collect
taxes
from
unincorporated
county
and
there's
a
formula
and
they
divide
it
out
to
the
different
member
libraries
and
it's
based
on
how
much
your
city-
or
you
know,
east
lake
and
palm
harbor,
also
in
it,
but
how
much
your
your
city
or
governing
body
spends
on
the
library.
J
So
we
actually
in
our
budget
spell
out
how
much
is
spent
for
procurement
and
I.t
and
then
for
diane's
budget
and
building
maintenance
and
all
that
stuff.
So
you
can
see
the
true
cost
of
what
it
takes
to
run
the
library
and
that's
those
different
interpartmental
allocations
on
the
on
their
budget.
The.
H
And
that's
why
the
opposite?
Where
you
saw
it
go
up,
you
can
see
libraries
gone
down
because
we
we're
just
using
the
previous
year,
which
was
down
in
the
items
we
measured
with.
That's
why
I'm
saying
I
think
we're
going
to
go
back
and
go
more
over
a
five
year
period
and
bring
these
back
up
to
where
they
usually
are.
B
H
For
the
allocation.
H
H
J
The
rest
of
it
in
the
operating
expenses
are
what
I
actually
oversee
and
have
control
over
it.
The
only
real
changes
you
may
notice
from
past
years
is:
we
have
an
increase
in
rents
and
leases.
We
have
our
copier.
That
is
definitely
at
its
end
of
life.
We
owned
it.
We
purchased
it
many
years
ago,
it's
hard
to
even
get
replacement
parts
for
it.
J
So
now,
rather
than
purchase
another
one,
we're
going
with
the
city
plan,
a
lot
of
departments
are
leasing
them,
because
then
you
get
the
the
maintenance
and
other
things
included.
So
that's
a
new
item
in
our
budget
this
year,
because
we're
going
to
be
replacing
that.
J
So
so
that
was
something
new
and
then
I
think
postage
had
been
left
at
one
time,
and
so
that's
been
added
too
so
that
when
you're,
looking
at
the
things
where
the
increases-
those
are
a
couple
things
that
might
you
might
notice-
and
I
I
do
both
the
library
and
the
library
memorial,
the
library
memorial
accounts
for
all
donations
to
the
library,
primarily
it's
funded
by
our
friends
of
the
library,
we're
very
fortunate
to
have
a
friend's
library
group
with
a
a
healthy
budget.
J
Two
years
ago
we
had
a
donor
who
had
given
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
the
friends,
so
we
get
an
annual
donation
from
the
friends
and
it
it
varies
from
year
to
year.
Usually
my
projected
donations
amount
is
what
I've
gotten
from
them,
and
the
board
me
and
friends
will
tell
me
this
is
what
we
anticipate
giving
you
this
this
fiscal
year
and
that's
what
I
go
by
and
this
year
it's
down
a
little
bit
because
right
now
their
investments
are
down.
J
So
that's
why
it's
20
000
had
been
higher
in
the
past
years.
They
said
it's
subject
to
go
up,
but
they
want
to
at
least
give
me
a
minimum
that
to
go
with.
So
that's
what
that's
primarily
about,
but
also
just
any
time
someone
does
a
book
memorial
or
buys
a
brick
in
front
for
the
library
that
also
goes
into
the
memorial
things,
and
we
have
had
also
instances
in
the
past
where
people
pass
away
and
leave
money
to
library
and
that's
what
also
makes
up
that
library.
Memorial
account.
J
We
do
have
some
vacant
positions
which
we're
working
on
filling.
I
have
someone
starting
in
just
a
week
and
then
more
coming
after
that,
so
that
also
will
be
might
show
a
little
bit
different
on
our
personnel.
Much
like
I
think,
janine
had
said.
We
also
had
somebody
retire,
who
had
been
with
the
city
for
35
years,
so
that
the
salary
might
be
a
little
there's
a
little
lower
in
salaries
too,
because
that
person
had
been
there
for
many
many
years
and
we're
going
to
be
hiring
well.
J
Currently
it's
four,
we
have
two
part-time
and
two
full-time
and
we
have
one
full-timer
starting
next
week
and
then
we've
got
we've
done
interviews
and
we
just
need
to
get
them
through
the
whole
hiring
process
of
doing
the
background,
checks
and
physicals,
and
things
like
that.
Oh
one,
other
thing
to
mention
just
also
is
different
from
last
year,
which
we
kind
of
already
addressed
this.
J
If
you
were
part
of
it
last
year,
we
at
one
point
had
two
part-time
custodians
in
the
library
budget
and
those
positions
in
this
past
in
this
current
fiscal
year
were
migrated
over
to
public
works
to
one
full-time
custodian
and
that
full-time
custodian
position
they're
actively
working
on
filling
that,
and
that
is
also
going
to
be
taking
care
of
the
library
as
well
as
some
other
city
facilities.
B
All
right,
one
more
for
me
well
he's
reading,
I'm
sure
so
the
capital
improvements
didn't
you
didn't
end
up
doing
that
and
you're
planning
on
bringing
it
back.
Oh.
J
Yes,
thank
you
because
that's
not
in
the
library
and
memorial
which
I'm
slated
to
talk
about
today,
actually
is
in
library,
moral.
We
do
have
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
was
in
this
current
budget
and
it's
being
carried
over
to
our
2023
budget,
for
library,
improvements
and
in
the
library
impact
fees
which
ron
is
more
the
expert
on.
We
have
400
thousand
dollars
there
that
was
budgeted
for
this
year
and
it's
being
carried
out
in
the
2023.
J
We
did
put
forward
a
grant
to
the
state
we
had
to
have
matching
funds,
the
maximum
grant
amount
was
500
000
and
with
a
hundred
thousand
in
donations
and
the
400
000
in
impact
funds,
we
had
the
matching
funds
to
do
that.
Unfortunately,
we
weren't
funded.
In
fact
none
of
the
libraries
in
the
state
were
funded
this
year,
but
we
do
have
the
opportunity
to
roll
that
over
into
the
next
next
year
and
have
a
chance
to
try
for
those
grant
funds
again.
H
Impact
fees
yeah
yeah,
so
we're
budgeted
for
this
year
and
it
doesn't
sound
like
it's
going
to
be
spent
500
000,
total
100,
000
donations,
400
000
impact
fees
in
the
next
edition
of
the
budget.
We'll
probably
have
that
in
there,
because
I
thought
maybe
it
was
going
to
be
done
this
year,
I'm
not
sure,
but.
B
J
Yeah
well
we're
we'll
we'll
try.
We
can
see
about
troy,
we're
going
to
be
working
with
the
commission
to
see
about
possibly
trying
for
that
grant
again.
But
if
not,
we
would
like
to
at
least
do
something
what
we
can
do
with
our
current
facility,
because
we
are
25
years
old
this
year.
In
fact,
our
25th
anniversary,
so.
K
K
It
may
be
on
the
list
of
priorities.
We
don't
wait
for
another
year
and
if
we
get
a
failure,
then
we're
two
years
behind.
So
that
may
be
an
item
for
the
city
to
consider.
You
know,
especially
with
some
of
the
new
sources
of
money
we
got,
and
that
will
probably
be
a
decision
when
you
see
our
our
meetings
with
the
commission
on
the
budget,
I
think
is
getting
close
to
time
where
we
need
to
do
it.
We
tried
for
the
grant
money
and
we
might
just
need
to
be
a
time.
K
A
J
Our
construction
costs,
because
when
we
had
applied
for
the
grant
last
year,
we
had
done
just
a
million
knowing
it
probably
more
than
that,
and
then
now
we
are
in
the
process,
we're
going
to
be
updating
all
the
costs.
If
you
have
some,
because
this
would
be
500
000
from
the
state
and
500
000
from
what
we
had
here.
K
As
we
see
things
and
as
I
learned
at
the
state
city
managers
conference
that
every
city
in
this
state
is
going
through
now
the
estimates
four
or
five
months
ago
that
you
get
around
to
doing
bids
for
they're,
doubling,
they're
tripling
and
so
we've
gotta
we've
gotta
go
back
in
this
whole
budget
and
account
for
that
or
scaling
down
what
we
had
planned
to
do
right
scale
that
down
to
meet
the
million
right
right
now,
that
million
might
cost
a
million
and
a
half
million
three-quarters
we
just
might
have
to
scale
and
maybe
have
another
phase
and
do
one
of
that.
K
But
every
city
is
being
faced
with
and
you
could
see
it
if
you
watched
tuesday
night's
meeting
with
the
clerk's
building
that
jumped
over
a
million
dollars
from
the
bids
and
what
we
intended
just
for
supply
the
supply
lines,
the
you
know
places
losing
money,
it's
it's
all
over
the
state
and
every
city
is
being
hit
with
it
and
that's
the
number
one
things
that
of
nightmares
for
city
managers
and
trying
to
put
together
budgets
and
projects
and
stuff
so
there'll
be
a
lot
of
talk
about
that
you'll
be
hearing
from
from
us
and
the
future
on
that
and
looking
at
things
we're
doing
that
with
the
road
project.
K
Even
though
we
got
the
state
money
to
finish
mango
mango
street
all
the
way
to
19..
We
know
those
costs
aren't
going
to
be
accurate.
Now,
too,
though,
we
already
know
they're
going
to
be
way
up,
so
we
may
have
to
scale
some
things
down
on
phase
two
and
do
a
phase
three
later
on
to
do,
but
that's
what
we're
doing
about
every
project
that
we're
looking
at
and
because
nobody
sees
these
times
getting
better
any
time
soon.
K
So
we've
just
got
to
adapt
and
adapt
that
and
that's
what
a
lot
you'll
be
hearing
the
next
year,
you'll
be
hearing
a
lot
of
that.
E
Again,
my
name's
doug,
hey
and
now
we're
moving
on
to
performing
arts.
We
have
four
venues.
We
have,
of
course,
the
performing
arts
center,
which
is
downstairs
and
we
have
about
you-
know
300
seats
in
there,
and
then
we
have
the
cultural
center,
which
has
70s
a
70
seat.
Theater.
We
have
the
heritage
museum,
of
course,
the
saffron
house
museum
and,
as
you
know,
due
to
kovid,
the
performing
arts
industry
has
taken
a
big
hit
over
the
last
two
years.
E
Fortunately,
this
season
we're
coming
back
and
we
were
thrilled
to
see
that
you
know
we
had
a
lot
of
sellout
shows
again
and
but
the
minute
that
you
know
the
pandemic
rears
its
ugly
head
again
in
the
news.
You
know
people
kind
of
stay
home
a
little
bit
more
so
than
usual,
but
we're
getting
to
the
end
of
the
season.
But
what
I
wanted
to
point
out
to
you
is
that
you
know
the
fiscal
year
for
the
city
starts
october
1st.
However,
our
season
goes
from.
E
We
start
our
our
new
season
for
performing
arts
in
october
and
we
go
with
events
and
performances
all
the
way
through
july.
So
really
what
we're
gearing
up
for
now
is
the
new
22-20-23
season,
and
so
we
always
announce
that
in
august,
and
so
you
might
see
some
of
our
revenues
being.
You
know
a
little
bit
low
at
this
point.
But
what
happens?
Is
we
get
a
big
influx
of
revenue
in
august
because
everybody's
anticipating
we're
having
our
last
show
the
end
of
july,
and
then
everybody
anticipates
the
new
season.
E
We're
already
getting
questions
like
when
is
the
brochure
coming
out?
So
that's
when
we're
going
to
make
up
a
whole
lot
of
you
know
revenue,
and
you
know
things
are
definitely
looking
up.
So
I'm
very
pleased
with
that.
But
I
just
want
to
explain
to
you
how
you
know
we
go
because
usually
it
looks
like
you
know.
E
A
E
One
thing
that
I
wanted
to
mention
you'll
see
like
an
increase,
primarily
in
1602
52,
where
we
have
you
know
more
than
we
normally
would
in
operating
supplies.
We
are
trying
to
the
cultural
center
was
closed
for
many.
You
know
a
couple
years
with
the
exterior
renovation,
and
so
now
that
it's
open
tarpon
arts,
as
well
as
the
library
we're
both
doing
events
in
there.
E
So
we
want
to
utilize
it
to
its
maximum
capacity.
So
there's
some
x
there's
some
a
couple
rooms
upstairs
that
you
know
we
can
put
in
like
have
a
nice
meeting
room
for
people
to
come
from,
like
the
tarpon
arts,
association
or
the
historic
historical
society
you
know,
so
they
could
come
and
utilize
that
room
and
have
meetings
as
well.
As
you
know,
internal
departmental
meetings
and
things
there
too.
So
we
want
to
go
ahead
and
furnish
that
and
carrie's
going
to
be.
E
You
know
possibly
buying
some
additional
chairs
that
we
can
store
there,
but
there's
also
an
issue
with
that.
We
would
like
to
have
a
doorbell
and
maybe
some
video
installed
because
being
a
two-story
venue,
you
know
it's
hard
to
keep
track
of
things
that
are
going
on
there
and
we
have
quite
a
few
events.
So
we
wanted
to
make
some
improvements
and
also
some
things
in
our
heritage
museum
office.
E
Because
all
of
my
employees,
I
have
five
full-time
employees
and
three
part-time
employees
and
we're
all
kind
of
pretty
much
housed
at
the
heritage
museum.
And
then
we
are
at
the
performing
arts
center
and
the
cultural
center
and
safford
house
when
we're
open,
and
we
have
events
and
performances.
So
so
there's
a
little
bit
more
of
the
operating
supplies
increase
there,
and
then
we
haven't
utilized
a
lot
of
our
printing
budget,
because
you
know
we
always
do
the
printing.
E
Now,
in
fact
I
was
just
talking
to
the
printer
today
and
he
was
telling
me
bemoaning
his.
You
know
the
issues
about
supply
with
the
paper
supply,
so
we
were
discussing
you
know
when
we
were
going
to
get
the
brochure
to
him,
so
they
can
get
it
to
us
by
august
1st,
and
so
that's
when
you
know
my
printing
costs
will
go
up
a
little
bit
because
we
do
mail
to
our
patrons
that
request
it
and
we
also
mail
to
our
our
membership.
So
those
are
the
really.
E
Donations
have
also
kind
of
been
low,
mostly
because
you
know
the
museums,
the
heritage,
museum
and
the
safford
house
museum.
We
we
charge
a
minimal
amount
for
people
to
come
in
and
do
the
tours
and
everything
it's
five
dollars
and
then
for
tarpon
springs
residents.
It's
three
dollars
per
venue.
So,
but
you
know
it's
like
when
you're
you're
paying
to
come
into
a
facility.
It's
like
it
doesn't
you
know
their
mind,
is
not
on
okay,
well,
we'd
love
to
give
you
another
donation.
E
So
with
our
performing
arts,
our
ticket
sales,
we
do
have
that
right
on
the
screen,
so
people
can
go
ahead
and
donate.
You
know
when
they're
buying
their
tickets.
B
A
K
She's,
smart
because
she
gets
out
of
that
one
and
leaves
that
with
me
to
deal
with
and
stuff
so
she
runs.
She
runs
appropriately
for
that
and
today,
with
a
cut,
it
is
not
feasible
with
the
cost
of
it.
Before
we
were
looking
at
right
now,
it
would
be
something
where
things
would
have
to
change.
I
don't
think
the
feasibility
of
cost
it's
on
the
back
burner
for
now
way.
E
Well
and
I'll
add
just
the
fact
that
people
love
the
stafford
house
and
I
would
hate
to
have
it
closed
for
any
length
of
time,
because
it's
a
real
tourist
attraction
for
tarpon
springs
and
we
do
get
a
lot
of
usage
out
of
it
and
we
have
a
wonderful
popular
popular
event
in
in
christmas
time.
We
have
the
victorian
christmas
and
it's
always
sold
out.
People
love
it.
We
decorate
in
november,
and
people
can
come
and
see
the
stafford
house
decorated
in
all
this
glory
until
epiphany.
Maybe.
E
I
tried
that
he'll
give
me
the
evil
eye,
because
I
had
to
cancel
a
halloween
event.
I
know
it'd
be
perfect
right,
but
there's
so
many
free
events
for
halloween-
and
you
know
mine.
You
know
I'm
a
revenue
producing
segment
so
so
anyway,
you
know
it
was
like
okay,
why
is
nobody
buying
tickets?
Because
there's
too
many
free
events,
so
we
decided
to
keep
it
with
christmas.
E
Thank
you
and
I
do
have
our
venues
and
are
gonna.
E
Now,
really
we
did
a,
we
did
a
survey
back
in
the
winter
time
you
know
usually
like
around
january
and
we
actually
went
and
put
it
out
there
to
all
of
our
patrons
and
all
of
the
people
that
follow
us
on
our
newsletter
and
ask
them
just
what
they
liked
and
we
had
different
categories
and
everything
and
overwhelmingly
surprisingly,
they
love
the
tribute
bands.
E
And
yes,
they
do.
They
love
the
tribute
bands,
but
we
also
have
a
very
strong
community
theater
component
and
that
actually
helps
us
with
our
grants
and
everything
plus
it's
our
community
being
you
know,
included
and
taking
pride
in
the
city
and
they
love
it.
We
do
most,
we
actually
have
beauty
and
the
beast
coming
up
and
you
can
go
to
don't
be
afraid
of
the
dark
this
weekend,
that's
their
their
last
weekend,
but
most
of
the
community
theater
we
do
at
the
cultural
center
and
it's
a
nice.
E
E
A
K
A
We're
not
getting
the
snake
august
first.
I
just
side
note
then
we'll
move
on
with
the
budget.
I
remember
the
one
schedule
that
came
on
it
listed
several
tribute
bands
and
then
it
said
the
eagles.
Without
the
tribute
man.
A
E
E
K
M
Okay,
well
how's
everybody
doing
today,
I
didn't
bring
any
type
of
slides,
I'm
not
much
into
the
slides
and
the
and
the
powerpoints
over
here
and
for
those
who
don't
know
me,
my
name
is
tom
funch.
I
am
the
public
works
director.
I've
been
here
20
years
in
the
last
12
as
almost
12
years
as
a
director.
M
I
have
actually
13
budgets
in
here.
Four
of
them
are
general
fund.
Eight
of
them
are
enterprise
funds
and
one
is
an
internal
fund.
The
internal
fund,
of
course,
is
fleet.
So
I'm
happy
to
touch
on
a
couple
of
highlights,
along
here
and
I'll
start
right
off
with
facilities
maintenance.
It's
on
page
80.,
okay,.
M
Some
minor
changes
here
we
actually
did
bring
out
a
full-time
employee
this
past
year.
So
that's
why
you'll
see
the
salaries
up
a
little
bit.
I
think
that
was
about
forty
four
thousand
dollars.
M
Others,
other
things
we'll
touch
base
on
too
was
the
contractual
other
contractual
services
that
come
down
a
little
bit.
That's
basically
related
to
air
conditioning,
that's
on
line
30
34.,
and
we
had
to
change
out
some
air
conditionings
over
there,
so
we're
able
to
reduce
some
of
those
costs
along
with
that.
M
Significant
decrease,
26
thousand
dollars,
you
say
I'm
sure
I'll
make
it
up
this
year.
I'll
come
back
price.
The
price
of
things
going
on
right
now
is
definitely
going
to
jump
up
a
little
bit
over
here
and
most
of
my
changes
here
basically
have
to
do
with
personnel
issues.
That's
all
and
not
issues
I
should
say,
but
some
jumps
that's
pretty
much.
I
got
to
say
on
facilities.
If
you
have
any
questions,
I'd
be
more
than
happy
to
answer
them
on
that.
M
A
Another
big
reduction
item-
let
me
make
sure
I
have
my
ruler
here
straight
repairs
and
maintenance.
M
You're
pretty
much
taking
all
the
complaints
from
phone
calls,
so
you
don't
have
to
spend
so
much
money
on
on
the
phone
anymore
yeah.
We
replaced
some
air
conditioning
units
on
the
top
of
the
roof
here
which
were
actually
giving
us
trouble
for
a
while,
so
reduction
of
new
units
coming
in
they're,
much
more
efficient,
of
course
right
and
I'm
not
spending
as
much
time
on
those
over
there.
So
that's
that's.
M
M
We
are
doing
the
heritage
center,
okay,.
M
K
K
M
M
M
M
That's
up,
34
000..
We
have
some
very
old
equipment,
we've
been
patching
and
welding
up
and
keep
it
going
over
here,
but
that's
really
putting
a
little
bit
of
pressure
on
the
maintenance
over
here
so
but
hopefully,
eventually
somewhere
down
the
road
we'll
be
able
to
replace
some
of
that
equipment.
I
have
a
couple
of
vehicles
there,
15
to
16
years
old.
I
got
a
sand
pro
which
we
use
on
the
ball
fields
for
granola
football
fields.
That
thing
was
we
just
replaced
that
actually
we
bought
it.
M
A
M
Yeah
yeah
old
piece
of
equipment-
and
we
have
some
old
vehicles
in
there
too.
We
have
some
old
dump
truck.
We
have.
We
just
got
rid
of
a
1996
chevy
pickup
truck
and
we
have
a
2000
ford,
rack
body.
That's
probably
about
to
see
its
grave,
so
well,
they've
got
to
give
them
credit.
They've
done
a
lot.
It's
got
a
good
work,
keeping
them
going
and
the
price
of
vehicles
nowadays,
I
guess
that's
really
not
too
bad.
M
The
other
budget
I
have
which
kind
of
marries
up
with
the
parks
and
parkways,
is
also
anglo
nature
park
and
that's
the
park
that
sits
on
the
north
side
of
the
river.
Of
course,
that's
that
park
was
the
city
purchased
that
park
through
a
grant.
So
we
have
responsibilities
on
maintaining
that
grant
every
year.
We
do
some
reports
on
it.
So
there's
some
additional
increases
on
the
budget
this
year
and
that's
pretty
much
for
the
shell.
We
utilize
for
the
trails
out
there.
M
We're
gonna
have
to
redo
a
lot
of
those
those
trails.
So
that's
why
the
biggest
increase
in
that
department
and
we
kind
of
work
in
conjunction
with
the
regular
park
department
they
kind
of
share.
There's
a
couple
of
people
that
are
dedicated
are
dedicated
to
the
budget
there,
but
we
help
out
each
way
and
just
keep
that
park
in
tip-top
condition
so
and
that's
as
far
as
parks,
parkways
and
anclote
nature
park.
Unless
you've
got
questions
on
that.
D
M
Up
off
at
dixie
highway,
it's
just
a
nice
spot
to
walk
around.
We
have
a
nice
little
pier.
You
can
stand
out
there
and
look
into
the
water
a
lot
of
people
fish
off
there
there's
a
couple
spots.
If
you
want
to
take
a
kayak,
you
can
slide
a
kayak
up
off
of
there.
So
it
really
is
a
nice
nice
spot.
It's
probably
gonna
get
more
popular
when
we
ever
finish
up
the
the
rest
of
the
trail
up
to
the
pasqua
county
line
that
passes
right
through
the
middle
of
that
park.
M
M
Give
us
a
general
fund
biggest
increase
here
pretty
much
on.
This
is
going
to
be
vehicle
maintenance
and
that's
kind
of
same
things,
I'm
having
with
the
parks
department
over
here.
We
have
some
trucks
that
have
to
be
replaced
repaired
as
they
get
older,
of
course,
they're
getting
close
to
their
useful
life
over
here.
So
the
maintenance
costs
go
up.
M
H
M
One
of
the
things
we
have
done
and
I'll
talk
about
this
a
little
bit
and
we've
used
throughout
the
other
departments,
is
the
use
of
these
little
kubotas.
Now,
if
you
see
these
little
orange
rigs
running
around
over
here,
that
actually
cut
saves
out
a
lot
of
work.
They're,
they're
they're,
not
very
expensive.
M
They
run
about
fifteen
thousand
dollars
a
piece
extremely
fuel
efficient,
get
us
in
and
out
of
a
lot
of
places
where,
once
you
just
go
up
with
a
bigger
truck
to
go
and
do
some
work,
then
you
had
to
carry
material
into
the
woods.
These
things
can
actually
get
into
some
of
the
tough
areas
we
have
to
get
into
so
they've
actually
been
kind
of
the
godsend.
So.
A
M
The
next
budget
we
can
talk
about
quickly
is
136..
I'm
sorry
I'll.
Take
that
back.
I
apologize
it
would
be
the
recycling
grant,
which
is
193.
not
much
to
say
about
this.
This
money
is
some
of
the
money
we
get
from
recycling.
M
We
do
utilize
those
funds
a
lot
of
times
to
buy
picnic
benches
pick
the
tables
things
like
that.
It's
actually
becomes
very
handy.
It
takes
a
little
bit
of
a
load
off
some
the
parks
department.
As
far
as
replacing
benches,
when
I
can.
M
We
utilize
those
funds,
that's
when
you,
when
you
are
recycling,
we
pick
up
right,
price
management
they
bring
it
down
and
when
they
can
sell
on
the
market,
those
funds
come
from
those
funds
come
back
to
the
city.
I
utilize
those
funds
over
here
to
offset
some
cost
anything
that's
considered
recycling
I
can
purchase
through
this
through
this
fund,
so
I'll
buy
picnic.
Benches
park
benches
things
like
that
over
here.
So
anytime
I
can
utilize
recycled
materials,
and
I
try
to
as
much
as
I
possibly
can.
M
M
Used
to
be
china's
not
buying
anymore,
so
those
funds
are
actually
are
going
down.
So
we're
being
a
little
more
cautious
on
how
we
spend
this
but
yeah
those
the
recycling
is
in
a
little
bit
of
a.
I
can
talk
that
as
we
get
through
it
a
little
bit
more.
Is
it
a
very
much
of
a
big
stage,
changing
stage
now
heck,
because
china
stopped
buying
our
materials?
M
There's
a
lot
on
the
market,
probably
right,
I
think
the
last
month
we're
actually
in
a
negative.
I
think
it
was
last
month
or
negative.
I
think,
on
recycling.
If
I
remember
correctly
so
the
market
is
very
weak
on
it.
M
Going
to
recycle,
but
it
ends
up
getting
getting
stockpiled.
Actually,
some
of
it
tvs
pretty
soon.
The
secretaries
will
actually
be
going
to
the
burning
plant.
They
can
burn
those
plastics
so
prob
sometime
in
the
next
month
or
two
you'll
save
pinellas
county
making
that
that
call
the
hillsborough
county
is
already
started.
M
G
M
G
M
The
state
monitors
them
pretty
pretty
tightly
on
that
and
you'll
find
out
that,
as
you
start
getting
more
into
their
and
I've
had
I'm
sorry,
I
don't
have
it
with
me
right
now,
but
the
amount
of
material
they
do
they
we
do
recycle
now
I'll
take
tarpon
springs.
For
instance,
were
you
about
40
of
the
residents
here,
recycle,
which
is
actually
pretty
high
in
the
county,
one
higher
in
the
county?
By
the
time
the
material
ends
up
getting
down
to
the
recycling
center,
which
is
down
in
in
saint
pete?
M
They
separate
it
right
there,
they
have
their
own
recycling
place
that
separates
it.
A
lot
of
that
ends
up
going
back
into
the
garbage
because
it
gets
contaminated.
People
are
throwing
food
into
it,
and
things
like
that,
so
you
probably
lose
about
25
or
30
percent
of
that
just
because
of
contaminated
material,
they
separate
it
and
then
they
try
to
get
to
certain
markets.
Sometimes
you
know
aluminum
we've
got
aluminum
markets
plants
go
to
plastic
markets.
M
M
People
recycle
yes,
sir.
It
fluctuates
every
year,
43
44.,
I'm
ballpark,
there's
pretty
much
that
yeah.
You
would
think
it'd
be
more,
but
it's
it's
not
as
much
more
and
that's
the
ones
that
that's
the
ones.
We
know
that
are
continuing
some
of
them.
It
might
be
a
higher
percentage,
but
a
lot
of
times
they'll
go
up
there
and
they
have
the
open
containers.
That's
why
we
have
the
open
containers.
We
don't
have
the
mechanical
ones,
because
at
least
the
driver
has
a
chance
to
look
at
the
material
and
say
wait.
M
G
H
G
H
H
G
What
my
reading
has
told
me
is
that
the
recycling
is
doesn't
really
happen.
Basically,
it
doesn't
really
get
recycled,
especially
since
china's
not
buying
the
plastic
anymore,
so
the
efforts
of
the
citizens
might
actually
just
be
a
waste
of
time
and
we're
spending
whatever
amount
of
money
for
this
concept
that
we're
actually
recycling,
that's
kind
of
where
I'm
going
with
this
just
something
to
look
at,
because
a
lot
of
us
are
pretty
passionate
about
recycling
and
anyways.
It
might
not
not
actually
be
really
manatee.
K
K
M
B
That
a
lot
of
recycling
drops
when
oil
is
cheap,
so
I
would
have
expected
the
amount
of
plastic
being
recycled
to
be
up
with
gas
prices.
So
I'm
surprised
because.
B
G
That
buys
it
and
they're
not
buying
it
anymore.
So
therefore,
there's
no
revenue
in
the
plastic,
yes,
and
so
the
reality
of
our
plastic
bottles
that
take
300
years
to
degrade.
It's
not
happening,
it's
just
like
he
said
being
stockpiled,
so
we're
really
not
recycling,
that's
kind
of
where
it's
the
tail
lagging
the
dog.
M
Or
hoping
the
market
changes,
you
know
hope
in
one
hand-
and
you
know
a
little
saying
so.
M
The
only
way
to
help
is
is
actually
like.
I
know.
Manatee
county
has
stopped
the
curbside
over
here.
At
least
you
don't
have
the
the
cost
of
the
trucks
going
by
all
the
time.
That's
a
big
expense
and
they've
talked
about
environmentally.
You
don't
have
that
many
more
trucks
on
the
road,
so
that
that
in
one
way
is
it
doesn't
offset
it,
but
it's
definitely
a
little
bit
better
than
weights
in
the
trucks.
Those
trucks
are
heavy.
They
use
a
lot
of
fuel
so
yeah
exactly
so.
A
M
M
C
K
We
do
need
to
increase
that
from
not
there
but
a
city
efforts.
We
do
need
to
increase
those
efforts
to
to
you
know
even
go
higher
than
that
forty
percent
in
doing
I'm.
M
We
do
we
do
some
out
there.
We
send
stuff
out
and
bill's
on
occasion
we
have
it
online
waste
manager's,
actually
very
good
at
supporting
our
events
like
the
fourth
of
july
picture,
they'll
be
out
there
and
they're
pretty
good
at
that.
You
know
you
know
they're
after
I
said
I
don't
think,
there's
a
lack
of
effort.
I
just
think
it's
a
lack
of.
We.
K
H
And
I
don't
know
if
it
will
help
and
yet
the
funds
you're
looking
at
right.
There
you'll
see
150
000
budget.
It's
built
up
some
money
with
the
yard
waste
project.
They
were
thinking
about
putting
a
recycling
center
out
there
with
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
a
drop
off
place.
Maybe
that'll
help
bring
that
percentage.
Just
took
one
of
my
points.
M
Out
there
did
you
see
that
stolen
my
sales
yeah
yeah?
I
do.
I
would
like
to
eventually,
as
you
know,
the
yard
waste
facility,
which
our
green
waste
goes.
All
yard
waste
goes
that
got
moved
across
the
mirrors
boulevard
boulevard
came
through,
so
the
scale
house
is
being
re-relocated
out
on
the
yard
waste
the
old
areas,
I'd
like
to
turn
that
into
a
I'm
hoping
to
market.
M
It's
gonna
be
okay,
yeah
into
a
recycling
center,
and
I
like
to
man
it
I
like
to
take
my
sanitation
department
and
move
them
over
there
put
them
in
the
office
there
and
they
can
run
sanitation
from
that
point,
but
also
put
personnel
in
the
area.
So
when
people
do
want
to
recycle,
there's
somebody
there
to
help
them
out.
Take
the
stuff
out
of
the
car.
Some
make
sure
the
plastic
is
going
in
the
right
pins.
The
glass
is
going
to
replace
the
paper
like
that.
So
I
think
that
would
be.
M
It
would
help
both
sides
of
it.
Though.
So
that's
one
thing:
we
find
out
people
end
up
going
to
the
recycling
areas
that
we
have
like
the
one
on
golf
road
and
they
just
open
up
and
whatever's
in
their
boxes,
they're
tossing
in
there
and
contaminating
the
loads.
So
somebody
there
will
be
helping
out.
G
So
my
personal
knowledge
is
the
cardboard
can't
really
be
recycled
so
because
it's
the
business
I'm
in
and
so
basically,
when
I
take
paper
to
because
it's
resolved.
When
I
take
paper
to
be
shredded,
they
only
take
certain
kinds
of
paper
because
it
gets
resold
on
the
market
and
the
carpet.
They
don't
want
because
it
basically
just
gets
them
back
in
the
garbage.
So
yeah.
G
M
Again,
as
I
can
put,
we
can
pull
up
and
look
at
the
quarterly
report.
We
get
them
and
see
how
much
is
actually
brought
in
and
how
and
where
the
prices
are,
and
I
can
I
can
ask
them
for
a
little
more
detailed
audit.
We've
reported,
we've
asked
them
for
it
and
I'll
see
if
they
have
a
state
report
or
something
I
can
get
that
back.
M
Okay,
a
couple
of
them
here
like
landfill,
closing
that
has
to
do
just
with
the
the
closing
of
the
landfill
of
monitoring
we
have
to
do
every
year,
that's
permanent.
We
were
hoping
one
of
these
days
to
get
this
closed
out.
It's
still
considered
an
active
landfill,
we're
hoping
to
get
it
closed
out
in
a
few
years,
and
that
way
it'll
become
just
a
brownfield,
and
this
this
will
reduce
those
costs,
and
hopefully
we
can
turn
it
into
whatever
the
board
would
like
to
return
into
a
lot
of
things.
M
Page
227
actually
yard
recycling
and
that's
pretty
much
operated
again.
It's
one
of
the
yard
waste
we've
taken
the
green
waste
and
we
we
store
it,
and
then
we
truck
it
off
to
another
outfit
out
in
homo
homo
thasa
that
actually
turns
into
mulch
materials.
Some
of
it
does
go
to
a
burning
plant
up
in
dade
city.
I
believe
some
of
the
material
there
we
have
done
lately
is
changed
some
of
the
process
there
they're,
actually
processing
on
site.
M
We
are
permitted
to
process
on-site,
so
they'll
grind
it
there
and
that
way,
they're
cutting
down
on
where
the
trucks
are
going
instead
holding
it
all
to
one
location
separating
it
there
and
then
finding
different
areas
to
go
now.
They're
actually
come
by
every
couple
of
months.
When
we
get
to
a
certain
amount
of
material,
they
grind
it
and
then
we'll
send
it
directly
to
the
final
final
location.
So
that's
actually
been
pretty
successful
and
it's
important
that
I
keep
the
yardage
facility
open,
because
the
arv
facility
is
also
our
area.
God
forbid.
M
M
The
other
one
I'll
speak
out
quickly
on
is
the
marina.
The
city
has
the
marine,
of
course
down
to
100
decades.
We
did
some
upgrades
to
that
last
year.
That
hasn't
changed
too
much.
It's
actually
pretty
much
keeps
itself
a
floater
part
of
the
pun
or
a
couple
extra
dollars
once
a
while
ron's
got
to
throw
in
there
to
keep
it
going,
but
it's
been
exactly
extremely
busy
a
year
or
so
I
know,
revenues
are
have
increased
quite
a
bit
since
we
did
the
rebuilding
out
there.
M
I
know
it's
gonna
take
a
while
to
make
up
that
difference
is
about
six
hundred
thousand
dollars.
I
think
we
put
into
the
marina
so
get
a
lot
of
good
reviews
on
that.
If
you
look
on
your
local
boating
magazines
and
stuff,
you'll
see
the
reviews
and
the
comments.
It's
it's
been
kind
of
positive
yeah,
very
nice.
B
M
It
really
is
a
nice
little
marina.
It's
come
out
very
well.
One
of
my
last
ones
here
I'll
touch
base
quickly
is
storm
water.
We
know
how
important
that
is
around
the
city
to
hear
that,
especially
this
season
coming
up
over
here,
we're
actually
right
now
in
the
middle
of
a
revenue.
Sufficient
study
ron
is
handling
that
one
with
us
to
see
where
our
revenues
we've
down
to
a
very
we've,
done
a
lot
of
big
projects.
M
Unfortunately,
one
of
the
projects
we're
doing
in
the
middle
of
right
now
gross
avenue
out
here
and
unfortunately
contractor
went
belly
up
over
here
and
hopefully
that
that
will
start
back
up
again,
but
this
is
this
kind
of
works
in
conjunction
actually
with
roads
and
streets
they
kind
of
work
together,
even
though
the
two
separate
budgets
they
have
to
work
together,
because
road
streets
complement,
stormwater,
stormwater,
complements
roads
and
streets
and
the
same
thing
with
the
parks
too.
M
Some
a
lot
of
things
we've
done
in
here
you've
heard
a
lot
of
questions,
a
lot
of
concerns
over
the
last
few
months
over
here.
As
far
as
the
clean
water
act,
I
know
we're
working
with
the
county.
We
work
with
the
county
quite
a
bit
on
a
lot
of
the
permits.
Our
impaired
water
bodies,
one
of
those
anclog
waterways,
which
is
the
bayou
and
the
river,
and
now
lately
st
joseph
sound,
and
it's
actually
been
a
very
a
very
positive
relationship.
M
M
How
you
cut
the
grass,
how
you
use
fertilizers
things
like
that
over
here
has
a
direct
impact
on
those
open,
waterways
and
tony
who
runs
my
stormwater
department,
unfortunately
couldn't
be
here
today.
He's
at
a
conference
he's
worked
hard
with
them
over
here
to
change
the
way
we
fertilize,
how
we
clean,
how
we
mow,
how
we
sweep
and
has
had
a
positive
impact
on
the
on
that
waterway.
M
M
So
it's
a
pretty
intensive
department,
it's
very
busy
and
we
get
called
on
everything
from
puddles
in
the
roads
to,
of
course,
as
you
see
when
the
tides
come
up
in
the
roads
flood,
these
are
the
guys
are
out
there
doing
their
best
to
control
the
traffic
and
do
the
best
of
control
with
the
floods,
but
we're
on
a
on
a
good
path
on
thunderstorm
we're
very
happy
where
we're
going
with
this
over
here,
that's
great
so
and
the
last
but
not
least,
if
that's
all
any
questions
there
is
on
page
331.
M
Is
the
fleet
maintenance?
That's
an
internal
fund.
This
department
actually
handles
three
mechanics.
I
have
two
people
in
the
office.
I
have
supervisor
and
I
have
a
maintenance
clerk
in
there.
M
They
handle
over
500
pieces
of
equipment,
everything
from
chainsaws
to
fire
trucks,
we're
one
of
the
few
departments
in
actually
the
county
here
that
has
a
full
evt.
We
have
two
people
are
evt
between
fire
trucks,
it's
emergency
vehicle
technicians,
fire
trucks
and
police
cars.
These
guys
are
very
good,
we're
very
efficient.
M
M
B
M
E
G
M
M
B
N
A
B
M
A
M
A
M
A
M
We
got
we
got
that
person
in
the
parks
department,
which
was
great,
and
I
appreciate
it.
The
problem
I'm
having
is
getting
applications.
I
still
have
a
position,
that's
been
open
for
about
six
months
and
I
can't
get
out.
I
get
applications,
I
had
a
couple.
People
come
in
and
they
lasted
like
one
or
two
days.
It's
it's
hard
work,
but
just
get
the
applications
is
tough
right
now,
very
tough.
K
K
M
Yeah
and
we
use
that
we
use
every
avenue
we
possibly
can
I
go,
I
do
use
online
or
was
it
oh.
I
can't
the
name
of
the
company
off
top
my
head
over
here,
but
we
advertise
all
over
the
place.
Advertising
my
association,
the
public
works
association,
stormwater
association,
we
advertise
for
those
over
here
and
just
don't
see,
but
a
lot
of
scenes
are
in
the
same
boat.
They
all
are
yeah.
So.
A
M
A
M
K
K
K
N
Also
with
me
here
is
tommy
kyger
he's
the
assistant
public
services
director
he'll,
be
given
some
of
the
presentation.
We've
got
about
10
slides
to
go
over.
It's
meant
to
summarize
16
budgets
for
you,
hopefully,
in
an
efficient
manner.
If
you've
got
some
detailed
questions,
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
them,
we're
going
to
ask
if
we
can
just
get
through
the
slides
first
and
then
we
can
go
to
the
questions
you
don't
want.
N
N
As
far
as
the
team
in
utilities,
we've
got
raymond
page
he's
here,
he's
our
utility
superintendent.
The
golf
course
howard
hunts.
Our
golf
course
manager,
hello,
recreation,
jamie
taylor,
he's
not
able
to
make
it
today,
but
his
assistant
duffy
smith,
is
here
and
cheryl
stedge
is
with
our
cemetery,
cemetery
manager
and
sustainability.
L
L
This
is
broken
out
by
personnel
operating
budget
and
our
capital
outlays,
and
one
thing
we
did
want
to
point
out
is:
we've
got
117
staff,
that's
about
a
third
of
the
city
staff
and
also
we
want
to
point
out
that
if
you
summarize
this
all
up,
it's
about
17
million
dollars
in
expenses-
and
this
is
you
know
they
range
between
these
different
categories
between
about
five
and
six
million
dollars.
Or
so
so.
L
They
run
our
city,
recreation
center
and
also
much
of
our
recreation
programming
like
youth
and
adult
youth,
sports
leagues,
the
summer
camps
and
that
sort
of
thing-
and
we
also
have
some
quick
highlights
on
things
that
are
unique
to
each
budget
and
this
one.
We
want
to
point
out
contractual
services
and
also
our
operating
supplies.
L
Next,
we
have
the
cemetery,
it's
a
historic
cemetery,
going
back
to
the
1800s,
we
have
four
full-time
staff
out
there
and
again
we
want
to
point
out
some
unique
things:
contractual
services
are
unique
to
this
group,
largely
that's
burial
services,
grave
digging,
providing
the
rental
equipment
for
funeral
services
and
that
sort
of
thing,
and
we
have
a
couple
of
capital
outlay
items,
including
restoring
some
of
the
cemetery
walls
on
the
east,
the
west
side
of
the
cemetery
and
also
a
couple
of
vehicles,
a
utility
vehicle
and
a
mausoleum
lift,
and
we
also
want
to
point
out
here.
L
L
Next
we
have
the
water
and
wastewater
utilities.
The
water
utility-
these
are
the
largest
group,
both
by
budget
and
by
personnel.
The
water
utility
includes
the
water
wells,
our
reverse
osmosis
water
treatment
facility,
the
water
distribution
system,
which
is
the
pipes
that
take
the
water
from
the
treatment
facility
to
your
home
or
to
your
business
and
also
the
meter
shop,
which
is
they
take
care
of
all
the
customer
meters.
That's
the
cash
register
for
the
water
and
wastewater
utility,
and
next
we
have
the
wastewater
utility,
which
includes
the
sewage
collection
system.
L
That's
the
opposite
of
the
distribution
system.
It
takes
the
wastewater
from
your
home
to
the
treatment
facility
for
treatment
and
proper
disposal.
We
also
have
the
lift
stations,
which
are
the
pumps
that
convey
water
from
point
a
to
point
b
and
the
wastewater
treatment
facility,
which
provides
the
city
with
reclaimed
water.
L
A
couple
of
quick
highlights
on
the
water
utility.
We
want
to
point
out
for
the
water
for
the
water
treatment
facility.
Some
of
our
large
areas
for
our
budget
are
electricity
and
operating
supplies.
Those
things
that
go
into
treating
and
making
our
water
safe
and
for
human
consumption
on
the
water
distribution
side.
L
We
do
have
planned
next
year,
three
new
generators
for
our
water
wells
to
help
improve
our
resiliency
in
the
event
of
power
outages
to
keep
making
water
we've
got
about
a
quarter
three
quarter
million
dollars
set
aside
for
pipe
renewal
for
the
water
distribution
system,
to
improve
the
water
pipes,
and
also
we've
got
another
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
our
ongoing
meter
replacement
program
to
keep
our
meters
in
good
shape
and
keep
the
cash
register
operating.
L
Next
we
have
the
wastewater
utility
again,
just
like
the
water
plant.
We've
got
the
wastewater
facility
heavily
tilted
towards
our
15
full-time
staff
and
our
electrical
costs
to
pump
and
treat
the
water
provide
oxygen
for
water
treat
for
wastewater
treatment.
Also,
we've
got
our
operating
supplies.
Those
are
all
the
things
that
go
into
producing
reclaimed.
Water.
L
The
sewage
collection
system
is
again
the
analog
to
the
distribution
system,
so
that's
heavily
slanted
towards
repairs
and
maintenance,
keeping
our
pipes
in
good
working
order,
making
sure
that
when
you
flush,
everything
gets
to
where
it's
supposed
to
go
to
the
wastewater
treatment
facility
and
similarly
our
lift
stations
group
is
also
our
general
utilities.
Maintenance
group
and
they're
focused
heavily
on
repairs
and
maintenance,
not
just
for
the
pumps
for
the
lift
stations,
but
also
across
the
utility
as
a
whole,
and
a
couple
of
quick
highlights
for
capital
on
the
wastewater
treatment
facility.
L
We've
got
several
major
pump
station
rehabs,
scheduled
for
the
next
year.
Renewing
old
pumps,
as
they
age
out.
We've
also
got
some
money
set
aside
for
design
work
for
rehabbing
the
electrical
system
of
the
facility
on
the
collection
system
and
utilities.
We've
got
money
set
aside
for
both
pipe
renewal
and
our
lift
stations
to
be
rehabbed,
and
also
we've
got
about
a
hundred
and
eighty
thousand
dollars
for
a
new
hydraulic
model
for
the
wastewater
system.
That'll
help
in
planning
efforts.
L
Up
next
we
have
the
golf
course:
the
city
owns
and
operates
an
18-hole
golf
course
which
operates
as
an
enterprise
fund.
This
is
kind
of
unique
in
that
they
have
two
budgets
in
your
budget
book.
They
have
one
budget
for
the
golf
course
and
one
budget
for
food
service
they've
got
about
24,
full-time
part-time
staff,
and
we
wanted
to
highlight
a
couple
of
things
here
that
are
again
unique
to
the
golf
course.
L
So
we
do
own
and
operate
the
golf
course,
but
we
do
have
a
golf
course:
maintenance
contract,
where
we
contract
out
all
the
greens
groundskeeping
and
things
like
that
and
the
the
lawn
care
and
that
sort
of
stuff
that
was
recently
bit
a
few
years
ago,
and
it's
made
good
improvements
in
the
golf
course
conditions,
and
also
we
do
a
rental
program
for
our
golf
carts
and
though
that
way
we
get
new
golf
carts
every
three
years
and
also
it
allows
us
to
keep
costs
down
and
let
under
third
party
take
the
depreciation
on
those
capital
assets.
L
One
other
item
that
we
really
want
to
highlight
for
you
for
the
golf
course
this
year
is
our
strong
performance
on
revenues.
The
golf
course
is
entirely
self-funded
through
user
fees.
Rentals
that
sort
of
thing
it
does
pay
for
all
of
its
operating
costs,
and
this
year
through
april,
we've
made
about
1.6
million
dollars
in
revenue,
or,
I
think
1.5
and
our
previous
record
for
a
whole
year
was
1.6.
So
you
see
that
blue
line,
that's
our
collec!
L
That's
us
collecting
revenue
over
the
course
of
a
year
and
it's
much
higher
than
the
last
several
years,
including
going
back
to
1819
pre
covid,
and
we
just
want
to
point
out
that
the
managerial
changes
and
improvements,
the
course
that
howard's
implemented
are
really
starting
to
pay
dividends
in
increased
course,
usage
and
increased
revenues.
L
L
It
started
with
the
creation
of
our
sustainability
committee
in
2019,
and
we
wanted
to
point
out
that,
even
though
this
budget's
a
little
bit
smaller,
it's
heavily
focused
on
robin
being
able
to
accord
our
new
sustainability
coordinator
being
able
to
coordinate
sustainability
efforts
across
multiple
departments
within
the
city,
and
we
do
have
plans
and
she's
hoping
to
work
with
other
departments
to
do
capital
improvements
and
things
like
that
over
time.
But
those
will
be
funded
out
of
individual
departments
as
those
are
implemented,
not
through
the
sustainability
program.
L
A
C
C
Whatever
there
again,
it
couldn't
do
anything
else
that
it
came
to
the
golf
course
we
did
change
our
maintenance
contractor
two
and
a
half
years
ago,
and
they
are
much
easier
to
work
with
they
like
to
listen
better
than
the
last
ones.
So
we
have
really
improved
course,
conditions,
okay,
that
drives
golfers
to
your
golf
course.
They
don't
want
to
play
on
dirt.
They
want
to
play
on
grass.
C
So
as
long
as
you're
doing
well
in
that
department,
you
will
bring
golfers
to
the
golf
course
and
then
you
know
our
staff
has
had
a
couple.
New
hires
and
they've
been
really
good
customer
service.
I
would
rank
it
probably
tops
in
pinellas
county
and
as
we
like
to
say
our
our
mission
statement
necessarily,
but
not
necessarily,
but
our
thing
is
we're
the
best
value
of
golf
in
pinellas
county.
So
our.
A
C
C
A
N
N
December
of
last
year,
she's
hit
the
ground
running
and
really
reached
out.
We've
started
a
sustainability
staff
team
with
the
city,
different
members
of
city
staff,
city
managers
helped
us
pick
out
which
positions
would
be
appropriate
across
the
city
and
robin
schedules.
Those
meetings,
in
fact,
we've
got
one
coming
up
real
soon,
and
so
it's
a
way
for
us
to
start
coordinating
together.
Just
like
that
title
implies,
we've
been
doing
a
lot
of
things
individually
in
departments,
but
this
is
going
to
be
a
more
coordinated
effort.
A
Does
anybody
have
any
questions.
B
No,
maybe
next
year
I
don't
know
what
you
have
planned
for
sustainability,
but
because
I
know
we
got
kind
of
a
summary
overview
of
all
the
different,
I'm
sure
we'll
get
to
that
next
year,
like
whatever
plans
you
have
and
kind
of
different
things,
you're
going
to
be
doing,
yeah.
N
K
B
K
K
We'll
we'll
have
my
gag
order
out
and
start
talking
a
little
more
with
the
time,
and
you
can
hear
about
some
more
to
sustainability,
because
it's
really
going
to
be
exciting,
going
forward,
we're
doing
it
the
right
way,
we're
not
just
jumping
in
and
bypassing
the
planning
and
everything
we're
doing
the
right
way.
So
you'll
hear
more
and
we'll
probably
bring
something
back
to
you
later
on
when
we're
not
right
in
the
budget
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
it
and
how
it
spreads
through
the
whole
city.
A
B
I
just
have
the
hydraulic
modeling
that
you
mentioned
is
that
is
that
related
to
planned
expansions
of
the
wastewater
treatment
facility
or.
N
It
would
include
that
it's
really
taking
a
look
at
our
whole
sewer
system
and
seeing
where
the
capacities
are
and
where
we
might
need
to
increase
capacity.
We
certainly
that's
one
area,
you
don't
want
bottlenecks,
is
the
collection
of
the
sewage,
there's
actually
state
laws
that
we
need
to
be
careful
by
not
overflowing
and
you'll
hear
stories
and
news
about
sometimes
other
cities
that
have
had
that
happen.
So
I
think
that's
the
number
one
thing,
but
yes,
planning
for
the
future
is
another
thing.
B
K
And
you
did
got
farther
out
of
it.
You
got
so
probably.
K
A
K
A
I
want
to
see
what
the
reaction
you
know
granted
we're
dealing
right
now.
We
don't
have
all
the
numbers
right
right.
We
all
agree,
but
I
I
wanted
to
see
if
we,
as
a
committee,
could
put
before
the
board
some
ideas
just
ideas
to
plant
the
ideas
you
know
at
the
end
of
the
day
they
need
to
get.
We
all
need
to
get
more
numbers,
but
in
the
unassigned
funds
balance
area.
Just
to
think
about
a
number
like
my
number
was
500
000.
I
can.
K
Yeah
but
again,
I
think
we
do
need
another
meeting
to
go
back
and
do
something
we
can
also
pick
up
with
with
the
department
we
missed.
We
can
also
again,
if
there's
any
of
these
people,
you
want
to
bring
back
a
little
little
more
for
some
other
questions.
We
can
set
them
and
bring
them
back.
So
this.
A
I'm
going
to
throw
out
two
more
ideas,
just
think
about
it.
I
know
what
the
market's
like
in
terms
of
getting
people
and
it's
it's
tough
right
now.
My
question
to
be
debated
amongst
the
group
before
anything
was
to
present
it
to
the
board.
You
know:
should
we
be
looking
at
any
I'm
going
to
put
it
out
there,
two
percent
additional
in
the
current
year.
K
A
K
We
had
a
big
county
meeting
of
all
the
county
city
manager,
county
managers.
Two
weeks
ago
we
had
the
state
conference
and
we
are
and
and
those
numbers
I
got
again
that's
one
of
the
things
we
can.
B
A
No
headcount
increase,
I
know
that
may
not
be
possible.
Headcount,
I
know,
is
not
necessarily
a
fixed
cost,
but
it
kind
of
is
it's
a
semi-fixed
cost
once.
A
A
K
The
availability
of
night
meetings
with
the
auditorium
with
with
the
plate,
I
said
we're
trying
to
I'm
trying
to
schedule
an
extra.
I
was
trying
to
schedule
an
earlier
meeting
a
budget
meeting
with
a
commission
another
introductory
because
all
the
factors
go
on.
I
was
having
trouble
finding
a
night
because
the
night
committals
were
almost
maxed
out
at
evenings.
You
can
set
a
regular
me
now.
You
could
probably
set
a
special
meeting,
but
my
biggest
problem
is
when
we
do
extra
commission,
meaning
he's
trying
to
find
a
night
and
a
lot
of
times.
K
A
K
I
think
the
october
to
march
schedule,
which
is
sometimes
light
and
we
skip
meetings
there
may
be
the
need
for
for
those
meetings
that
we
could
skip
before
yeah
like
last
year
and
the
year
before.
We'll
probably
have
a
lot
of
times.
That's
the
lull
time
the,
but,
and
there
are
some
meetings
we
may
be
able
to
skip,
then
just
because
we
don't
have
the
information
yet
to
bring
you.
But
but
I
don't,
I
think,
we'll.
B
K
It's
usually
one
usually
usually
once
a
month.
B
I
mean
that's
at
the
time
when
the
committee
was
created
yeah,
they
they
passed
their
board
their
rules,
which
was,
I
included.
They
set
the
meetings
at
two
o'clock.
If
you
want
to
do
it
earlier
something
in
the
morning,
I
don't
know
what
you're
what
you're
thinking,
but
it
would
require
a
change
to
your
rules,
so
I
think
I'm
going
to
step
out.
B
A
B
B
A
K
B
I
can
put
a
email
out
when
I
go
downstairs.
Let's.
B
A
Okay,
next,
maybe
future
agenda
items.
I
know
we've
touched
on
a
few
and
we'll
have
the
final
hr
is
the
only
department
left
anybody
anything
else,
407
running
a
little
late.
Officially,
the
meeting
is
adjourned
at
407.
