Lawrence Sinclair, [address], Cocoa, Florida. Deputy Mayor, before I get started, I'd like to ask, I have the right to address this council under the city charter and I would ask that all persons on the dais and in the audience respect that right. Whether they agree with what I have to say or not, it's not an issue. I do not want to be interrupted again as in September of this year and I, if I am, I'm going to turn around and walk out of here and then I'm just going to continue to pursue things legally. Okay.

place in this council since September. Some of you were not sitting on that dais at the time. Some of you were. Some who were sitting up there are no longer there. Let me make something perfectly clear. I have been up front with the city from day one. I do not hide anything about myself or my past. Don't do it. Won't do it. And have no problem with addressing it. I will not, however, have members that are appointed or elected as officials of this city to use this body or any other city governing body or meeting to file malicious prosecution charges in a court in the 18th circuit, accusing me of things that I did not do. I will not tolerate elected and or appointed officials submitting written sworn statements, making allegations that are untrue in their official capacities with the city of Cocoa without providing those sworn statements to the city clerk for public records purposes.
