Transcript Partial transcript
Machine transcription of the meeting recording. The words are the recognizer's, except where a passage is marked as corrected or machine re-recognized; most have
not been checked against the audio, so words, numbers and names can be misheard.
It describes what was said. It cannot establish who voted how, an amount or an outcome — the City's
minutes do that (above).
A time links to its passage, and “Copy link” copies that link. “▶ Play” opens the recording at that moment, on YouTube, in a new tab.
402 suspect passage(s) marked in place.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 23 voices separated from the audio.
33 short machine repair(s) (39 word(s)) are labelled in place, with the original words beside them: an ordinary word was replaced only where two further machine readings agreed on a different one.
Checks run on this transcript: the recognizer's own warning signs, whether a voice was detected where the words are and a language review for likely mishearings.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 94.2% of 17,948 content words.
Dotted words (413 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
402 passages (22% of the words) are marked suspect: their words are not shown ("unclear audio") and support no statement: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ; the language review questioned them; or no voice was detected there.
Agreement between two machine readings is not verification.
Speakers were separated by voice. A plain name rests on evidence tied to that voice; “provisional” is a name from an earlier text-only pass and is not verified; “Speaker N” is an unidentified voice.
Yes, sir. Let me go ahead and read this into the record. Is there anybody here from Space Coast Area Transit planning agency? Okay. Proclamation. Whereas Mobility Week is a cooperative effort by the Florida Department of Transportation and its partner agencies to promote awareness of safe multimodal transportation ‸ choices by hosting an annual collection of outreach events. And whereas Mobility Week is an ideal time for counties, cities, and transportation agencies to highlight transportation achievements, roll out new initiatives,
And whereas Mobility Week is also an opportunity for individuals to explore the various transportation choices available to them and think about how multimodal transportation reduces traffic congestion, benefits the environment, and improves community health. And whereas Mobility Week is consistent with Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization's key priorities of promoting travel alternatives and encouraging pedestrian and bicycle safety. Likewise, the week-long celebration is also consistent with

The reason I'm in here tonight, because of ineffective patrolling. In our city, violent crimes is on the rise because of ineffective ‸ patrolling. I just passed the hot spot tonight where a

When I got to my church at 530, I had 10 people on the wall getting high and drinking. I called the police and tell them they're on the north side of the building. They show up on the south side of the building.
city and the county and ask the people in the community who pay taxes and vote, what is your will? And the will of the people is we need to do better in our city because we're not progressing. There are some people sitting up in here tonight that have been here since 1999 with those 30-year ideals, and
So the will of the people, when we bring another police chief in here, we want them from another county or another state, and that goes for the city manager also. Another county, another state. No in-house promotion

to be about. And, of course, you know, all I can say is I've been waiting for a parking garage for going on almost 40 years now. Parking is a major problem in the downtown. You're going to lose businesses like mine and similar to mine because people are fed up with no parking.
a parking garage takes place in the 40 years I've been down here, I think it's very sad. I can count on 10 fingers how many parking studies there have been in 40 years. Many. A lot of wasted money. When you run your own business, you have to be very careful of how you spend your money to make your money. And I wish the city would know how hard it is to make a dollar rather than depending upon taxpayer dollars to pay for things that need to be paid for. But a couple of things I just wanted to say real quick that was on, okay, as far as safety, you're right. I've watched the village. I mean, I think we need cameras. I'm installing cameras in my business. There is crime on the rise. There's graffiti all over our parking benches.
generations climb that tree and have their ice cream. It is completely covered in graffiti. It's not what people want to see when they come to a historical cocoa village.
Skateboarders are going to, you are going to get sued. People are going to get hurt on the streets in the village. They are going so fast down the sidewalks with skateboards right now. We used to have no skateboards allowed. It's crazy. I think we really have to work on infrastructure before we talk about millions of dollars being spent on another civic center that's not really being used properly as it is.

in a business here. When we had Whitley's Marina, those people who came here, who shopped with me, bought condos here. Those are the customers who stayed here, who came to this area because of its charm. You are going to lose those people. They are going to move elsewhere because they're seeing what I have seen. A real bad, how can I explain it? Take pride in where we live. It's so important. This is where we live. This is our community. Let's make it beautiful. Make other people want to come here and live. Please. It's our job as a community of people who live here and work here to care about how it is protected. And it's not being protected. It's not. Please, thank you.

high school in 1990, the murders have just been moving up and up and up. I've had relatives. I've had friends, close companions that are murdered because of the crime that is just growing and growing, and I'm just over it. I have grandchildren now, I
two grandsons, and I want to give them an opportunity to be raised in a peaceful environment where I don't have to worry about me or my grandbabies getting shot and killed and all that. Now, on to what I'm really wanting to talk about are these stores. Who needs milk and eggs at 2 o'clock in the morning at a corner store? Nobody.
There's probably about eight people standing outside. The doors are wide open at this store. Nobody's inside. I'm driving by ‸ purposely so I can see on the inside. So here's the owner or whomever he is. He doesn't live in this community, okay? He lives somewhere where he doesn't have to worry about being shot and killed, okay? So I'm driving by on my way to work this morning, and I'm looking. Prostitutes and all that good stuff. So I remember a time when police would park. If the police would park. Show their face. Let them know that this is not acceptable. You cannot hang out, loiter, you know, go home. Go get a job. Do whatever it is that you need to do. But when you have all these people that pile up and ‸ gather, whatever ‸ they're doing, selling drugs, you know, whatever they're doing, what happens is ‸ it's intense environment. They start with fighting, and then when the fighting starts, they don't want to fight. Now they want to shoot. Now innocent people are killed, you know, and it's just, I am just so over it. But back to what I was saying about these stores. They're open too late. There's no reason for these. There's three of them in particular that I'm speaking in terms of. On Peachtree and then the one on Fisk.
But I'm just, that's basically what I'm getting at, you know. Like, I mean, if I move around at night, so I come home, my fiancé and I would come home.
lot is full. There's music. There's drug dealers. There's ‸ prostitutes. It is ridiculous. And this is not just one night a week. This is Monday through Sunday all the time. And bad things happen to good people. Good people are in the wrong place at the wrong time. That's just the way that life is. ‸ That's the revolving circle of it. But I remember a time where I would drive by ‸ one of those stores because it's like they never go away. They just keep multiplying in this community. And lo and behold, the police would be parked. And what would happen? They scatter like wet rats. They're not there. They're gone. You know, ‸ and I mean, it's like.

I've had a situation where I've had a lot of deaths. And one of them, a lot of them actually was just recent with the one that was at the store where the boy just got killed, which is my cousin's, my daughter's cousin. And my sister was murdered in 2014. And then my husband was murdered in 2017, shot in the back of the head after leaving Palm Bay, coming back in Cocoa. And they got a little clips of it on somebody's camera on the thing.

and stuff like that too. But they were calling feds, DEA and everything for drugs, not that ‸ I'm downplaying that because that's bad too or whatever. But they were calling all of that ‸ for the drugs and lock these people away and they barely saw murders unless the family really, really involved in care or they catch it on camera. And when I talk to the detective, all I get from him is he don't know nothing or there's no one talking. And that's not acceptable ‸ for me because, no offense, even in the law or whatever and this and that,

Okay. Well, thank you, ma'am. And I just wanted to ‸ add something as you're going away that, you know, the gentleman that just got shot, that was my late cousin, Aldo Ray's son. So I know. And I ‸ tell you, I sat down with the chief and the assistant city manager, ‸ and we had a discussion. And I know it's an ongoing case. So I think we need to just give it a little bit more time to see what's going on.

have a detective that's inundated with so many murders, that's not fair to him or to us. So my thing is I want to know what is the procedure for a cold case unit.
that we can place in front of the Cocoa Police Department that gives the name of these people that have had unsolved murders. And I went so far as to say the ones that are ‸ posted in the police department. And I said I want my son's name and picture up on that.

They say the biggest voice gets the most attention or ‸ the biggest can makes the most noise. You get the most attention. My number one thing is I leave this meeting right now. I'm going to get on my hands and knees and pray to God that we get something going that somebody can say, your children matter. Not the black children, the white children. Children matter.

That three hours, and those three police officers could have been spending it on some of these murders instead of on me. Now, I'm facing charges for using a walker that was donated, and they accused me of stealing. And just because it's on video that I used it, they're calling it stolen. Now, the state attorney's office is going to spend a bunch of time and money.

I just wanted to announce that we are starting to take donations for our annual turkey drive. The local firefighters union has been doing this for a while. So they are starting to do signups November 1st. But if you are interested in donating turkeys that we will be giving back to families within our community, we are accepting those ‸ now. Lieutenant Single and driver operator Brian Ackerman have just done a phenomenal job with this program each and every year to reach out to our community and really give back to them, especially those that might need to lift up during the holidays. So it's just been a phenomenal program.
Last year they collected 120. This year they're going to go up to 150. So we're really excited about that. I also would like to introduce Deputy Chief Sam Bird, who started with us on Monday. He is our new Deputy Chief. He comes from Melbourne Fire Rescue, where he served as a training chief. We're very excited to have him. He's got a nice wife. Her

I just want to say thank you. It's been a pleasure working with you the last, I guess, 10, 9 years that I've been on the council. You've given me some good directions to go in and work good with me, so I'm very happy and wish you nothing but the best of luck in your retirement. And Deputy Chief, welcome aboard. Nice to have you here. And Samantha, well, I don't know. They're okay. That's all I have. Thank you very much.
I just had a few things. The first thing is the last night, Chief Lamb, your fire department, did an excellent job. I didn't really announce who I was.
But the professionalism and the way that our victim advocate and the Red Cross handled that situation, man, it was awesome, man. So just kind of give them a pat on the back sometime. Maybe buy them all lunch or something.

citizen participation today was awesome. Definitely at the first meeting, I think we're not always going to agree on different decisions that we make. But I love hearing different opinions from all walks of life. Also,
We have a lot of conversation about this store. And we have a lot of things in plan. A lot of things we'll be moving forward. I'm tired of it as well. I'm
Some of them doing things they really have no business doing. But at the same time, we all are ‸ human. We don't deserve to be killed by the hands of anybody. So we are doing our best. And ‸ I got told Chief before, we have to put more pressure on these stores.
to also bring in these store owners. If they refuse to comply, then we may have to do some other things of action. I don't know what legally, I don't know what that may be. But I'm willing to go to the door, whatever we need to do. Because when you have owners who don't really necessarily live in the neighborhood, they don't really have an invested interest in the community.
They want to make, you know, two dollars on single cigarettes ‸ and selling food stamps or whatever else they do. But they don't really necessarily care about the community.

That's not what I do. But I do know people. And most people who are doing crime, they don't like to see that badge. So we just need to do a better job and be more consistent. That's my thing.

do better. I believe that. We have a good community. As you can see, the people that came today to talk about it, their perception is when you see murder in a black community, you automatically assume that people don't care. And that's so far from the truth. Because
Just thinking about it, you have to really take a five-year-old child to Rockledge to get on the swing. It's emotional for a lot of people. Sometimes ‸ you get people in the community who may ‸ care. They may just be doing a job. I don't know. ‸ I don't know what we need to do. But people like this, these are the people that get left behind. These are the people that nobody going to check on.

may be worried about a homeless person, but then you got the people uptown worried about somebody getting shot in the head. The community is just so different. It's so different, but it's a beautiful thing when it all can come together. I believe in the city. I believe in our staff. I believe in our police officers. I believe in our fire department. I believe that we can do a lot better. And I know that police officers cannot change the world. They can't do everything. I understand that. A lot of these incidents are people that know each other. These are people that fight on Thursday and see each other on Saturday. And now all
a sudden they want to shoot each other up. So it's not the police fault. It's not their fault. We got to do a better job in the community. And that falls back on people like me. People like me who was elected to do a job. So I got to do my job. I got to do a better job. And every time somebody get murdered, I feel bad. I feel real bad. I got to go home. It's a big deal, man. I know some people go home and ‸ don't see none of this stuff. I call it the curtain.
There's so much stuff behind that curtain. Behind Wawa. Behind King Street Baptist. Behind O'Reilly's. It's a lot of great people. But it's a lot of things that get overlooked. We got to protect our community. So Chief, I just appreciate everything you're doing. So don't take it as.
know sometimes when people say certain things, it makes it seem like they're targeting you. But you're the man. So when you're the man, it comes with all of that. So you are appreciated. I understand that. Okay. It's just that when sometimes when people get, when people's family get murdered, it's a difficult thing to deal with. I've never dealt with my family member getting murdered.
I don't know how that feels. But her husband was murdered two years ago. And you still see the effects of that right now. She just walked out crying. It's deep stuff. I get off my soapbox now. But I just, I just, I just know we just need to do a better job. And I need to do a better job of what I do to get more out there in the community. And police do an awesome job in the elementary schools. That's where it really starts at. ‸ So y'all making great connections with those, like Emma Jewel and Endeavor and

Unfortunately, I do know what it feels like to have a family member murdered. And it's been 20 years and it's still painful. And I have known Miss Anita Gibson since her son who was killed, since she was pregnant with him. And I have some understanding of the kind of pain that she's going through. Fortunately, we know who killed my family member. There are people in this community who know who killed her son.
you know what's going to happen? It's going to happen to you. It's going to happen to you and you're going to be in the same situation. You're going to lose a loved one. Somebody's going to know who killed them and nobody's going to help you out because that's karma and it comes back to fight you. If we want to clean up this community, we have to stand up for what's right. And I know what it's like to be scared.

committing a crime in this community, if you're not dealing drugs, if you're not buying drugs, your chances of being a victim of a crime are not any worse than they are in any place else. But that still doesn't mean if you're buying drugs or selling drugs, it doesn't mean you deserve to die. You don't deserve to get shot over it. And if you look at statistics, yeah, it happens around these stores. We have a nuisance ordinance. But you know what it's going to take to shut these stores down? We can pass all the laws we want.

There's plenty of good business people to spend your money with. Don't patronize these stores that are destroying our community. I didn't want to get off on this subject because I knew I wouldn't be able to do it without tears.
my heart to know that there's somebody in this community who knows who killed her son and doesn't have the guts to step up and say something about it. And I understand being afraid.

And I hope that you get to spend many, many years with children and grandchildren and doing all the fun things that you have not gotten to do while you serve this community.
we don't always get support from other agencies that we need. Our police department can work a case, and they can bring charges. And then we have a state attorney's office who doesn't file those charges or who thinks the case isn't solid enough for them to take it to court. So I know our police officers get frustrated because they do the hard work, and then they have no support.
step up need to be saying those same things to our state attorney's office. They need to step up, too. If you look at the number of cases that our police officers take to the state attorney and the numbers that get prosecuted, you'd be in shock. And we support that office with our tax dollars just like we support our police department. So let's talk to them about stepping up and helping our community, too. And I had some other things.

bring that information back at our next council meeting because we're getting a little late. ‸ And then also, I'm not going to talk about the many things that I've been doing over the last few weeks, which has been quite a bit. Sometimes I don't know what I'm coming or going. But I do have a certificate here, a partnership here. I was over today over in Orlando with the Eastern Central Florida Regional Resilient Collaboration Agreement that
As well as many other mayors throughout the state, throughout Central Florida that was there. And I tell you, this is a great deal for us. It's great for our community. And ‸ hopefully we'll get this framed and put it in one of our Samantha.

you know, and I've seen a lot of changes, a lot of good changes, a lot of positive changes. But we need to take this city to the next level. It kind of reminds me of certain pockets in our community.
it's almost impossible to find what it is, what's been misplaced in that room. But if you have a clean room and you know that it's clean and that something's out of place, you know it right away. And we have some pockets in our city that you can't even tell what's going on because there's so much crap going on. But we, as a city, got to do our part. We've got to clean up the blight. We've got to maintain our streets. We've got to have that level of equality throughout our city so that we can move to that next level. And I think we're going to get there. And I believe we can get there if we work hard, if we all work hard together. It's not just our police department. It's something they can't do alone. It's not something the code enforcement can do. It's something that we've got to do. And we've got to set the tone and be that example, even with our employees. If you see something out there that's out of place, and if you can stop safely and pick it up, pick it up. Because you know what? When a resident see you do something like that, they're more apt to do the same thing if they see it. Or they're more apt to talk about it and mention it to someone.

We've been rated number one affordable housing developer in Florida, number 19 overall in the United States. We utilize all sorts of financing for affordable housing, 9% tax credits, 4% tax credits, HUD financing, public-private partnerships.

And in 2018, last year, we had six new communities funded by Florida Housing ‸ to develop this type of housing statewide. We've done business all over the state of Florida. This is a representation of some of the developments we've done. South Florida, Central Florida, North Florida. In fact, we have a development in Titusville right now that is ‸ seniors housing, 86 units, funded with the type of financing that we're seeking for this development. It's located behind the Gibson Youth Center at DeLeon and Sycamore Street.

think in total, they funded 14. Mostly, it comes down to a lottery number. But one thing the state has done, because they were getting a lot of input from local government, saying, hey, we have developments we'd like to see happen in our community. We've got redevelopment plans. So, the state came out with this program where, if the local government would want to participate with the development, either city or county, and provide a larger loan than you might normally see, that they would give a preference, funding preference, and fund them in their own separate pool of developments. They would compete with other cities or counties who have given the same loan. So, last year, there were about 20 cities and counties that had given these contributions for developments around the state.

Just like Deputy Mayor said, there is no shortage of demand for this product in this community. So with that said, our overview, remarkably similar. I'll just point out a couple of differences. We use a specific type of debt financing ‸ that works with seniors that are 62 and over rather than 55 and over.

A, that kind of debt financing is very competitive and cost effective for us. But also, I feel that it targets more specifically the actual elderly. ‸ 55 plus, I'm 55. And I look at that number and I say, you know, I know there are 62-year-olds here who say, boy, I feel young too. But if I'm putting 62 and above in my community, I feel like I am targeting more the elderly. Whereas there are a lot of middle-aged folks, 55 or so, I don't know if I want them specifically to be in a seniors project. I like the 62 level for that ‸ reason. Everything else, extremely similar. Our location is different, and I'll get to that in a second.

I know staff certainly does. ‸ We have a 35-foot height restriction there.

I want to point out not what you've already heard, which is all excellent information, but what's a little different about us here. We use a technique which is very new. We're one of the first people to use it called income averaging. As Jason pointed out, we have to rent to people making 60% or below of the area median income. And typically, you'll have some very low-income people at 35%, and you'll have the 60%. And that best positions us to get the funding that we need from Florida, the award

Income averaging allows us to rent to people making slightly more than 60% and also slightly less than 35%.
[01:23:45]▶ PlaySpeaker 23 (introduced as “Gabe Erenstein” — machine-transcribed, not verified)
the sweet spot of the 60% and below, but there are plenty of seniors who make just more than 60%, a little bit, but not enough to afford really quality market rate housing. So, by using this technique, we're able to rent to people up to 80%. Not all our units, just a few of them, but making up to 80% of the area median income. By the same token, to balance that out, we also have to allocate units to people making 30%. So, that gets us down into an area where we can really help people who are struggling. 35% is low. 30% is even lower. That's a wider band than your typical 60% and 35%. And that's why we like doing that. Recreational space, ADA, up to code. Again, similar. I don't have to go through it. You've seen it.

I'll point out here the veterans. We do focus on veterans. I think that it's very important in this community. That is an issue near and dear to me. I'm an Air Force veteran. I like taking care of these folks. They deserve it. And so, we partner with VASH. And our recent development in Gainesville, as a matter of fact, has nearly half the people in there, across from Shands, are veterans. So, that makes us feel good. Talked about the income averaging and who we're targeting. There's a couple examples of representative amenities. They're all very nice.

Jason's absolutely right. It is extremely difficult to do in this kind of development. What you're looking at there is something that we did in a market rate development. That's not affordable housing. So we had a little bit more money to play ‸ with. But it's a technology we've used. We've used it to offset the carbon footprint and to help out our overall electric and energy costs. We've put that project up and running, and it's providing a return right now.

at Cocoa Landing. Which, by the way, will not just be market rate apartments. There's a second phase, which is going to be townhomes. So it's a phased situation. We'll have rental housing, possibly for sale townhomes after that. No surprise, it's the same $354,000. That's because that's a mandated amount from Florida housing.

Maybe the loan will be structured a little bit differently. Those are all details that can be worked out. But it's the same thing. And just regrettably, Florida housing is mandating that as the local government, you pick one to support. As Jason said, there is still a pool after that. We could still apply if we are not the selected one. But the odds are extremely low. And as you said, you just kind of have to get lucky. We get lucky. They get lucky. But if we really want to make one of these happen, the best way to do it is by getting designated as the LGAO, Local Government Area of Opportunity Application. And having you put that financial support behind it. Just a quick overview for us.

for a minute. I did come here with Jason. It was a pleasure to meet you as well. I represent the Brevard Homeless Coalition. Rob Cramp, the Executive Director of Housing for Homeless, wanted to be here tonight, but he had a board meeting and was unable to make it. Senior living is a critical component in preventing homelessness of our elder citizens, and we've seen a big increase in that recently in Brevard County. People in the workforce are struggling to make ends meet. So our people who are on fixed incomes really have problems when rents keep going up. Our seniors don't have an opportunity to increase their income.

And being the proud woman she is, she requested a ride to and a list of local food pantries from me rather than allowing me to help her financially or be forced to move at 79 years of age.

There's just a requirement that the adults are present in the in the kiddie pool with the children. Now, according to Brevard County Parks and Rec staff there's pretty low usage of that pool due to the fact that most of the children utilizing the pool are unaccompanied by an adult during the summer months when they use the pool.

can maybe encourage our seniors to use that pool, because there's really nothing better when you're a senior than pool exercise. Let me tell you, that's uh the best exercise there is.

I agree. I mean I think uh bringing the new center there brings some additional uses. That could be one of them and I think that brings some new opportunities as well as swimming. But we will have that conversation with Brevard County. uh I can take that as your consensus and then we can proceed forward with the construction. Okay. all right sir It'll be ready for next summer.
