Transcript of Recording of 2022-07-26 (City Council Meeting 07/26/2022): 878 passages, 13,510 words
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.
301 suspect passage(s) marked in place; inspection incomplete: language review.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 26 voices separated from the audio.
28 short machine repair(s) (34 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 and whether a voice was detected where the words are. Not completed: language review.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 92.6% of 13,029 content words.
Dotted words (265 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
301 passages (21% 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.
Inspection is incomplete: language review.
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.

more about their youth and they do more for their youth than here in Cocoa. And I want to congratulate the mayor and his entire staff for everything they do. I wanted to talk about this evening fluoride, obviously, but about the State College borough up in Pennsylvania. Last week, the Water Council, they have their own water systems.

the water system. Most of them are from the Pennsylvania College right there. And most of them, five out of the seven on the council have PhDs. So they just voted unanimously, six to nothing, to remove fluoride from the water system. And I said in one sentence, there were seven on the board and it was a unanimous decision with six. Well, one of the members on the board resigned from that board seconds before the vote. And then he admitted to the council that he had not read any of the studies on fluoride, that it was just a personal decision. But one of the conclusions they came to there was that there was no obvious advantage of ‸ water fluoridation compared to topical prevention for the prevention of dental caries. They also said that pregnant women and babies should not drink fluoridated water, potential IQ loss, and dental fluorosis.

the lowest possible cost. And to provide top quality service to our customers. In other words, the mission of our water authority is to provide safe water, not to medicate the public. But I put a copy of this presentation in everybody's mailbox. You'll have it tomorrow morning if you get a second. Just read through it. Thank you very much.

Now, I've been told that I was on the board too long, 39 years. Never missed me one meeting. Not one. I've been excused when I went to Boston Mass for my hometown. But I never missed a meeting because it's important to me. I don't get much money out of this. That's for sure. So I'm not in for the money.

too old, and been on the board too long. And they're going to put new people on to give them a chance. Well, we give them a chance. And you know what happens? They come in for three meetings maybe at the most, and then they're gone. The other night, we had a meeting here at the Code Enforcement Board. Our chairman could not chair the meeting because he was not reelected when the council did not meet last month or June, whatever it was. And his paperwork was in.

We've got three code enforcement officers. We've got a code enforcement manager. We've got ‸ administration people. But without our board, you cannot go and ‸ have the code ‸ examined and either pass or not pass. So I don't know why they did this here. But I think it's an awful mess. And you folks all voted it in. So now we're stuck with it. Unless we do away with it. But I'm not very happy with it. I put a lot of time in. Our code, excuse me, our chairman is in jeopardy. Because he was not reappointed at the last meeting because they had no meeting.

Having such a wonderful camp gives me hope that Coco will one day enjoy a community-friendly, ecologically beneficial nine-hole golf course within our city limits. Next, regarding the change in public records policy, if the majority of public documents could be searched for and found online through the city website, there would be little staff ‸ time required responding to public records requests. This would save time and money for everyone. That's all I have.

July 24th. Records policy changes are a hot topic that citizens are interested in as part of transparent government and managing our tax dollars. I oppose the proposed resolution
While red line changes of the city policy were not provided, I compiled and provided them to you so you can see them more easily. The policy change has proposed to
including charging for time spent to determine if a document exists, charging for anything more than 15 minutes in a 30-day period, making the request cumulative, and
to name a few of the proposed objectionable changes. The current 2013 city records policy is already punitive and charging residents for over 15 minutes of staff time as considered extensive. The city should be working to make access to public records easier for citizens to access and not more restrictive. Making records available to citizens

My name is Jackie Lewis and I'm an independent contractor. I teach Zumba and Aqua Zumba, Zumba kids and Zumba kids junior to the community. I think it's a wonderful service. It helps with the health of all the citizens and I know it's my job, but I don't treat it as a job. I am trying to appeal to the city because I teach Aqua Zumba at the Jolie Smith Community Center. Some of my students are here to support and we don't want the pool to close. We feel that it is a community pool and that it should be utilized for all the community to stay healthy, especially during COVID. So the problem is that the county is stating that they don't have enough lifeguards. So I'm appealing to the city to possibly help finance the ‸ use of lifeguards so that the community can use it. I have students coming from

Brevard County, Florida adopting a large scale comprehensive plan, text amendment adopting a policy in the future land use element authorizing the city council to approve by development agreement residential densities of up to 125 dwelling units per acre related to vertical mixed use projects within a very limited geographical area which is generally located along
and more specifically described herein by parcel information and map that consists of effective real property of approximately 4.5 acres more or less and is designated mixed-use land use on the future land use map and designated Cocoa village sub-district with a commercial mixed-use large uh cl building type on the Cocoa waterfront overlay district regulating plan requiring a development agreement by the city council to approve such projects on such real property under certain terms and conditions deemed necessary and acceptable to the City Council, providing factors to be considered by the Council when considering whether to approve such projects by development agreement, providing for the repeal of prior and consistent ordinances and resolutions, incorporation into the comprehensive ‸ plan severability and an effective date and legal status of the plan amendment. As you noted, Mayor, this is a transmittal hearing uh proposing to amend the text in the City's
element of its comprehensive plan, I believe there's a PowerPoint presentation, so um I would suggest I'll be happy to answer any questions uh once the the presentation has concluded.
Thank you, Mayor and Council members. um Yes, I do have aa quick PowerPoint presentation to try to um explain this in the easiest way possible. um in addition to what was just said, we are looking at proposing um the particular ordinance on three properties um within the city and they make up um like for instance 430 Brevard is actually three parcels. We're considering it one
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:23:46–00:23:48 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
parcel for the um uh discussion today. So we're looking at 430 Brevard, 505 Brevard and 630 Brevard. What we what we did with this project was really kind of a reduction of the factors that were required to look at within the comprehensive plan
to kind of enter into such a project. We've had a lot of interest in the city at developing at a higher density for these mixed use projects. We've been told that to make such a project work, the higher density is needed for these projects. So this first map obviously shows you where those properties are at. It also shows

what the maximum residential units could be on each of the properties. Another thing that was kind of considered too in the reduction of choosing the particular parcels for this amendment was the size. Obviously
As you went through the staff report, we referred to kind of a trifecta of ‸ the future land use, the zoning code, and the waterfront overlay district. All three of these plans have the intent to encourage mixed-use development within this area. And really what this proposal does is really bring those three plans together. So today, to show you, with the current future land use, the current zoning code, and the current waterfront overlay district, which would be supported by a development agreement, a developer could get up to
And so when you're looking at these parcels that are only up to two acres, you're looking at only 60 units, say, on a two-acre parcel. Thus, the reason for the amendment, we're proposing in that exact same area, but limiting it to these three sites, that you are allowed to go up to that
Again, based on the same three kind of trifecta of bringing those plans together and still requiring a development agreement that will look into the specifics of each of the developments on these lots, allowing us to make sure that it is a quality development, that it meets the scale, that it meets the requirements of the historic Cocoa Village. So again, kind of what I had mentioned was we went through the project and really did kind of a reduction of the sites in the village. And to do that, we did that through the requirements of the comprehensive plan, policies, and objectives. We needed to look at the city's budget. Obviously, these can benefit the city's budget, ‸ in the sense of the tax revenue that will be brought in. We needed to look, so both item number B and E before you on the screen,
we have the adequate facilities to provide services to such a development? And this went through a lot of scrutiny with all the departments within the city, much thanks to utilities, public works, fire, police. Everyone took a look at this. The Brevard School District took a look at this too to make sure we had adequate schools for the children that would be housed in these developments. And as I noted in that staff report, that all of those public facilities can meet these densities. Then item C, looking at the environment, the natural and the historic resources. This was a big piece for us, obviously, being in the village. We started narrowing it down by looking at properties that were developed after the 1950s.
them were developed after the 1950s. One was in the 1970s. And the other property is vacant. And obviously, that goes to your natural and historic resources too, right? The sites are either vacant or completely built out at their current stage.
We'll also look to see how this meets the state comprehensive plan, the East Central Florida comprehensive plan. And again, in the staff report, I went through the items in which those meet, similar to our comprehensive plan, encouraging housing, a diversity of uses and those type of things. So those were all a nice check in the box.
So this was another one that helped us reduce the areas a little bit further. We had looked at other blocks in the village that met the requirement of not having buildings that were historic, but they were either across the street or next to single-family homes. And we did not want to, we wanted to have complementary uses in and around the sites that we looked at. So ‸ we eliminated a few more parcels based on the compatibility with the surrounding neighborhoods so that we were able to accomplish that goal in going through this project. Obviously G, adequate housing. This helps us add housing stock to the city.
ways that we are consistent with the comprehensive plan and all the items that I have just mentioned. So that brings me to ‸ the recommended motion. The land planning agency, planning and zoning, did take a thorough look at this and they have recommended approval of the proposed comprehensive plan text amendment,
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:31:38–00:31:44 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
Yes, ‸ they did have discussion about this. They felt that encouraging the mix of use, so this is in the ‸ mixed use future land use, and they felt that encouraging that mix of uses in this ‸ area ‸ was obviously advantageous to the village. There was a lot of discussion about the particular surrounding businesses and how with developments like this, we could see improvements to the existing businesses surrounding them. They also looked at diversifying the housing options and felt that that was very nice. They were very glad to see that we were going to execute this through a development agreement because
of the building does mix in with the existing historic village. And so they were appreciative that obviously through the next couple steps of applications that they would have ‸ a chance to look at that in much more detail. So they were appreciative of that.
Flag: words only one machine reading has (possibly not said); the recognizer flagged its own output · 00:33:03–00:33:10 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
is the parking. So there are kind of three factors there. You have the parking, you have the residential units that would go hand-in-hand. But then you also have the mix of use and depending on how much commercial they are adding to that.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 00:34:40–00:34:46 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
Right now, I believe that at the 125 dwelling units per acre with the supporting parking and the mix of use with the commercial, they are looking at seven stories for 430 Brevard.

a real swag, right? Between four and eight stories, I'm unsure. They're so dependent on size of units and things like that and the amount of amenities they want to provide.

kind of the revelation that there really were no height restrictions in this area. But then at the end of our conversation, we talked about the comp plan, which addresses density, which does affect height. And height, of course, affects scale. And scale, of course, affects character. So, and this is probably the last conversation we will ever have about this. Because once this comp plan is changed and we pass this, we will be going up in scale. And there will be no going back. So, I am going, I do ‸ want to explain ‸ my feelings about this.
They will be, and ‸ that's actually a great point too. So, the great thing about these three projects is by them moving forward, they actually will improve the utilities in their area. Obviously, they have to improve them to hook up to them, right? So, they'll be making improvements. And then at the same time, another item that I forgot to mention under the environmental factors is they also add to the stormwater cleanup. And so, they will actually enhance the village by providing additional cleanup to the stormwater that comes up.

what I'd really like, the opportunity, and I'd like my council members to listen and not make comments, to respect me, to respect my constituents, because this is a very important point, a turning point, in ‸ the historic Cocoa Village history. What was he talking
So I just want to say that, again, height, scale, impact, they impact the character of the village. And for 20 years, we have marketed ourselves as a historic village. We have the historic Cocoa Village, Main Street. We had a conversation at the beginning, actually, probably about two years ago, now, in regard to historic villages and height restrictions. And I was given a list by the then Community Development Director of cities in Florida that were historic and that had tall buildings, I was told. I researched that list.
those down, which you really can't do. Once you bring up the height restrictions, you're not bringing them down. And I just say all of this because we are increasing. by increasing height, we will increase the property values of those lots. But it also has the effect of decreasing those properties behind them that no longer have
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:40:21–00:40:21 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
and where the character of the entire village has been changed. ‸ So, I just want us to be cognizant of that fact. I am never again going to bring up height in the village. I promise you. That's right. Because this is it. And if we're there, and it seems that we have a lot of people in the village, of course, we already have high rises in the village. And it may be that this whole struggle over height was finished a long time ago. But I still have constituents with real concerns about this and a real desire to have that quaint community, that walkable village, that sense of community that you get in a smaller place. I've lived amongst high rises and they are, I have, and I am, you know, people try to position me as though I were anti-development. That is not the case at all. I am pro-smart growth, I am pro-wise development, and I am pro-character development for a particular community. So, and having said all that, let me say this. If we go to
think historic Cocoa Village Main Street may need to change the historic part of that just to keep their charter. But we are making, we are making a big change here today. So, with that, I will say no more about height. Oh, one more thing.
reason this is so important to me is because I lived in a community, and this was in Virginia, that maintained, really protected the integrity of the character of their community, and it paid off. It paid off to the degree that when I sold my house there, I was able to move here and buy a home on Indian River Drive. And that's how ‸ we were able to afford a home on Indian River Drive because that community had a strong Main Street, had a strong sense of character, and guarded its planning, Just like we see

you know, those properties go for a lot, not because there's a park next door, but because they know there will be a park next door, according to the plan. Since I have been here, there has not been a proposal come forward that we have not approved. So, in terms of, you know, changes to our planning and zoning. So, that's all I'll say. Thank you.

Cocoa Village sub-district. That's the hotel development project. So, in order for a building to be eight stories in height, there would need to be a development agreement and it could be allowed in a much larger

and I am just talking from the cuff so please bear with me. The conversation regarding height of buildings in the village is debated strongly both ways. If you look back a couple of decades before I got here, the village was not considered a great place to be. It has improved tremendously over time. It's known for being quaint and historic and family-friendly,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:48:29–00:48:30 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
which is a wonderful thing. And what we hope to hang on to and maintain, bringing more people in, turning this into a destination rather than just a day trip is highly desirable. I also speak from a merchant's point of view. My wife has a store here. So we like that. We understand there's tradeoffs, there's things to gain, things to lose, And that's kind of the nature of progress as it goes forward. So that being said,
There is word on the street that retail cannot survive in the village, for a number of reasons. And as retail dies, in order to keep the tax base up, what we need to do is bring in more, food and beverage services into those store spaces. In particular, bars. ‸ And the idea is we will create a nightlife district in Cocoa Village and transition from ‸ the come play with us, come shop with us, come dine with us, come create with us, come enjoy the waterfront into a come drink with us. And this is the idea of turning this over time into a drinking destination like other areas. To me, it would be a terrible affront to what we know and love for Cocoa Village
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:49:53–00:49:53 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
being. So if you've never heard anybody in the audience or here that has not heard of that or not familiar with this, let me, open the page to that and bring it out. But to the point of keeping Cocoa Village the wonderful place that it is and having it grow and prosper is what I think we all desire. Once again, these are my thoughts. Most of the people on the historic Cocoa Village Main Street board agree with me but I can't say that I'm speaking for them at this time because I didn't clear it beforehand.

but we still have the opportunity to remain charmful and have something to offer where you can't get it anywhere else but right here in Cocoa Village. So, I am for positive development but I do not want to see an eight-story building take all of the sunset away and all of the breeze that you get on Bavard Avenue from our rivers. That's what's going to happen if you over-develop it.

Okay. An ordinance of the city council of the city of Cocoa Brevard County, Florida, adopting a large-scale comprehensive plan text amendment, correcting a scrivener's error in figure flu one set forth in the future land use element to provide. The RU-210 zoning district is only an allowable zoning district in the low-density residential future land use category, providing data and analysis in the legal basis set forth in the recitals to support the proposed comprehensive plan amendment, providing for the repeal of prior and consistent ordinances and resolutions incorporation into the comprehensive plan severability, and an effective date and legal status of the plan amendment. This is a transmittal hearing, and as you noted, Mayor, this is to correct the scrivener's error in a table in the comprehensive plan. The consent decree, which is generally located west of Florida Avenue and east ‸ of US 1, is subject to a federal court consent decree. Pursuant to that consent decree, the city is required to maintain the low residential character of that particular area. That area is currently has a future land ‸ designation of low density residential, which is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The area has an RU-210 zoning district designation, which is currently consistent with ‸ the consent decree and the comprehensive plan. The only thing we're doing is correcting a
error in the table, which denotes RU-210 under the wrong category of medium density residential and high density residential. It should be depicted on the table under the heading low density residential. So it's just correcting ‸ the scrivener's error. I'd be happy to answer any specific questions you have regarding

Thank you, mayor and council members. Yes, as stated, this is an application from BSC consultants on behalf of the property owner Flamingo Land Company Incorporated. It is for a single-family subdivision of 25 lots at approximately 2.2
per acre. The property is zoned RU17 single-family residential and CN neighborhood commercial. Both these zoning districts allow for residential development at the density proposed. The ‸ subdivision is supported by tracks for stormwater recreation and access. You mentioned the location.

closely and has given their approval. The one thing to maybe note on here too is the total amount of the existing hardwood trees to be removed shall be mitigated with similar hardwood species. So again, encouraging that right tree, right place through our zoning code. ‸ All the bulk regulations are met for minimum lot area setbacks, those type of things have all been identified on the plat. It does have consistency with the comprehensive plan, policy, and objectives and the preliminary subdivision for Riverwalk has been found to be consistent with chapter 18, the subdivision chapter and appendix A zoning of the city code. planning and zoning has recommended approval with three conditions of which the last condition they did amend.
will read these three conditions. The first is that the large-scale site plan should not be effective until and unless the preliminary subdivision has been approved by you today. ‸ The 30-inch DBH oak removed requires replacement trees

water that's draining from elsewhere. It's not like rainwater. And my concern is perhaps this construction could exacerbate that problem, not just for myself, but also the neighbors to myself. They also have this huge water drainage issue as well. And I know there's been a stormwater impact study done. It was available to us.
Yeah, the engineer of record can probably elaborate more on it. But so they are required to come in compliance with city code and St. John's water management code on this. They actually exceed those codes. And that was one thing that we asked for them because they don't have a connection to an outfall pipe like some neighborhoods would. It's just not available here. So they're they're actually providing 100% retainage with the grading of their roadways and their lots.

with regard to fencing fencing is proposed I i'm sorry I off the top of my head I can't say exactly whether it's required or not, but it is proposed.

a great question. uh Actually, all of the lots and all of the property will be tilted into the site, so all drainage will come into the site. There won't be a swale between the sites because they will be a high point where the site, the two neighborhoods join. So uh the uh the retention ponds will be basically in those two triangular tracks at the corners.

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 timestamp opens this recording at that passage.
570 suspect passage(s) marked in place; inspection incomplete: language review.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 24 voices separated from the audio.
58 short machine repair(s) (84 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 and whether a voice was detected where the words are. Not completed: language review.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 90.9% of 24,028 content words.
Dotted words (659 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
570 passages (24% 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.
Inspection is incomplete: language review.
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.

Chapter 22, Water and Sewers, Article 6, Irrigation Conservation to promote water conservation through the more efficient use of landscape irrigation. Providing for the repeal of prior and consistent ordinances and resolutions, incorporation into the code, severability, and an effective date. Mayor, this is second and final reading of this ordinance. It's a public hearing item. It's all yours.

I just want to bring to your attention. I'm sorry I missed the first reading. But the ordinance states here that it is to promote water conservation through a more efficient use of landscape irrigation. However, in section 22-274, exemptions to the landscape irrigation schedules, item number seven, says the use of water from a reclaimed water system is allowed any time. No restrictions to days like if I have a well or if I'm using regular city water.

Flag: the recognizer flagged its own output; a language review questioned the wording · 00:03:04–00:03:08 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
that when you receive revenue off reclaimed water and you don't off of if I have a well, for example, or something like that. So my suggestion is that item seven under the exemptions be removed.
Yes, sir. I'd like to address that comment. ‸ The St. John's River Water Management District does not, they don't have jurisdiction over reuse water. This ordinance is to restrict the use of potable water and potable irrigation.
because then we would have more discharges to the river. Right? We have a pretty nice balanced system where we have about 2MGD of wastewater that comes to the plant and we have about, on average, about 2MGD of water that's used in the form of reclaim.
create another discharge to the river that we wouldn't necessarily have to do today. So just so we're clear, the district is really looking at the restriction of
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:04:15–00:04:15 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
water use for the purposes of irrigation. And if you're doing that, then you should only do it two days a week during the summers and once during the winters per the ordinance.

Mr. Murphy's point is a good one, just in terms of guidelines and education about the use of water. I understand how our water reuse system works. I also understand that it has a higher level of
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:04:44–00:04:48 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
of the Indian River Lagoon. So specifically where it drains into the lagoon, there could be issues. But the whole idea that we would encourage people to manage their use of water ‸ and really help them or guide them or encourage them to do more native plantings so that even because there are times when we even have shortages of reclaimed water would be helpful.

were at the last meeting. The one that we recently identified that we were not, uh, aware of at the last meeting was the contract language that, uh, that requires that if, uh, the county through the soil fund through the soil fund actually provides dollars, then, uh, the city would have to take that same amount and put it in another, um, Indian River Lagoon related project. And if they didn't have that project, then they would have to,
the future, that still is subject to the county commission approval. Um, but again, um, that language, um, again, is, is no longer an issue as of a tonight's meeting. And so we can take that off of the list of issues there and I'll, I'll,

Should the city choose not to expend such funds in the manner described above the city shall transfer those funds to the County for deposit to the save our Indian river lagoon trust fund. The city's obligation under this under this paragraph shall survive the termination of this agreement.

Either one, from the city manager to the city attorney to city staff. Talk to me in layman's terms.

actually cover the project costs when you get through the bidding process. And we've seen, again, you guys have actually seen those escalation in costs there.
you're being asked to, we in essence have to take a swag at what the project will ultimately come in at. And so, you know, we can go and apply for those grants to make up the Delta. Again, we don't know what the Delta is. So, so you don't know how much to ask for in terms of those grants that ultimately will fill the gap. So it's sort of this chicken and egg issue that we have here that really is the primary issue. There, there are also, again, contractual language issues that obviously we will be able to work through eventually. But as we sit here
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:16:02–00:16:07 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
And I just really focused on the pros and cons slide for the options that are still available and the advantages, if you will, or the project descriptions and then the advantages and disadvantages. So, and then at the end, I had some slides about the potential costs and I kept those in. So it's about eight or nine slides. And I'm going to go ahead and revisit those again.
without a mandatory ordinance, option three was just kind of doing what we had, which was not making it mandatory. So that's really not a recommended option so I'm not gonna really explore that anymore and I'm just gonna ‸ go and review very quickly the three options that we talked about last time. The first option was the advanced septic. It is listed in the tetra tech report it's part of the original study it's J&K was originally designed as a septic to sewer because we had two points of potential sewer connection that could have been engineered potentially to serve these areas. So, but but in looking at it, it certainly is an option to convert those areas into advanced septic if the council were to choose that. the Because of the distance and so on and where those lots touch, it looks like they would qualify. everybody on Indian River Drive facing

discussion last time. It was considering in some kind of an ordinance to comply, folks, ‸ citywide, to make a connection to the sewer system upon its availability again we talked about the available funds about 5.1 million
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:18:59–00:18:59 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
There are also, again, on behalf of either the county or the city, there could be grant opportunities to cover costs on their side, meaning the private side. That's
the septic, the restoration of landscaping and driveways and so on and so on. So, that's private infrastructure and public infrastructure. Those are two different things that we have to look at. The fourth option, skipping the third, was a ‸ suggestion to maybe not take any action at this time just because construction costs are pretty crazy. Inflation is extremely high. Costs are going up by 20, 30,
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:19:52–00:19:52 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
and we're seeing that across not only just construction but really citywide. All of our expenses, our contracts, chemicals, pipe, everything is all going up. So not the best time to potentially do this type of

everything has gone up. And and and of course, there's landscaping and other things that ‸ going on with that as well. So there's no monthly charges for the citizens who choose that route all the residents on Indian River Drive can apply so those are the general advantages on the disadvantages side may not cover the cost I mentioned that we still allows nutrients and we talked about that in the last meeting last month. It's not getting everything, but it is getting more than what it's doing now. So it is an improvement and there's no future revenues. Of course, if you're looking at from a city side, no revenues, that's a disadvantage for the city. on option two, again, we're maximizing by making a requirement, we're maximizing at least the funding available by way of save our Indian River Lagoon funding allows a project to qualify for other grants by making that mandatory connection because I think it's
the mandatory or proof that you've enforced mandatory type connections. So that we would have to take that action. We have the potential to further maybe expand from that hard piping maybe to

creates future super sewer revenues for the city. That's an advantage removes the discharge from the river so big advantage disadvantages and I've gone over these I did have a couple new kind ‸ of twists at the end here. ‸ last two or three bullets are different from the last time. But again, requires the connection policy to be to be established and a enforcement policy of how are we going to deal with folks who choose not to connect and but yet we have a contract saying Brevard that they will
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:23:28–00:23:29 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
be one grant that can cover all this. So we're going to have up to two potentially three grants in motion on one project so it's going to complicate that again I kind of mentioned that they can apply ‸ homeowners can apply for DEP or st. John's grants via the county or the city
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 00:23:48–00:23:53 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
service line. ‸ So on. There will be an impact to other lots in J&K that's kind of a new one so what we did and I attached it to the new agenda item is there are 19 lots
that are in the J&K area that have access to sewer that are on septic currently so if we put an ordinance in that says that everybody, whether you have a working septic or not have to connect that would immediately apply to those folks and so most of them are in the Indian circle which is that subdivision just to the south. If you know where that is. So there's there's 19 lots in there that don't have sewer accounts and we check that
I think the city manager kind of touched on the fact that, you know, we're being asked essentially to make decisions on contracts and commitments towards grants with actually not knowing what the real number is going to be. And with the added problem of with the building that it is right now,
other things will be not only today but a month from today, six months or eight months or however it might long to take this, get this project, get the full funding in place, receive all the grants, then bid it out. And then
representatives at the county and those terms and conditions. It sounds like there's ability to negotiate those and get those approved with the county. But in the end, we would still need to take that final agreement to you for final approval, as well as if we make modifications to it

And, of course, anything that we ‸ we don't do now, we delay any any improvement to the water quality to the river by doing nothing so that's a disadvantage I don't want to go through these too much but

And that's where we would need another grant to make up that difference. And we potentially could do that with a DEP grant or a st. John's grant but there are still risks in getting them especially not necessarily getting them I think they're getting those grants I think the risk is ‸ is the number. We still don't know what the real number is. We'd have to do a cost estimate, maybe update that, still put it out there,
to get all the grants and things ready. And then we would only know the real number after we've already made all those commitments, sign the contracts, and then

percent of person who does not connect, ‸ even if we make a mandatory connection. If we make it mandatory, depending on the type of enforcement we may do, still people may refuse to connect, but the county will still come to us and say, write me a check back for the difference of however many people don't connect so there is some risk there and that's what I'm trying to point out to you

and Ii think when I reviewed the um the meeting minutes before this council meeting today for the last month that we did, and I figuredthere was about 15 people who came up to speak.
didn't think that the septic was directly related to some of the problems. um Folks, you know, questioned thethe reliability of that ‸ whether these 92 lots are really contributing. uh And other folks were saying it was and they want to they want to do the right thing. So, that's kind of a real split.

we can we can apply for the grants, but we have to do that based on our best guess cost estimates. ‸ And that and and those grants have to go in motion, be approved, or you know you'll get a letter stating that, you're approved, but then depending on which one you're applying for and when they get them, they typically come around. They'll give you a letter saying you've been approved, but you don't get the money, usually a fiscal year or sometimes
away, so now you gotta wait, and then you still gotta you know go out to bid. Because, we of course, we have to line up the funding you know per our farm and our financial ‸ We have to line up all the funding before we can bring it to council so that we can execute the, uh bring the bid, you know, bring the stuff out, get the bid, and bring all of that back for execution.

the formula that was developed by tetratech that they developed a number ‸ and it's within a budget that they can work with and their projects that have gone forward and that that was the intent. You know, we're not necessarily like maybe a lot of the other projects because of some of the challenging geology that we have along Indian River Drive uh and the pricing and costs that are going on. And you are correct. um You know, for you think that

saying, no, we're still short. And I still want to, you know, just re-emphasize there are grants out there. We can qualify for them. We can go get them. But to the mayor's point, you're right. We don't have a guarantee. We have to, we have to come up with an estimate and and hope that we are, um that that estimate is approved by that agency. um And that it would cover all of the costs. So that that is part of the risk that we would take, but we can get those grants.
‸ so I don't have that number. But um the agencies um will provide those uh lists if we request them. So there have been times in the past where we want to know why we didn't, one of our projects didn't get the grant. So we'll ask for that list and we'll see where we were ranking and maybe what held us up from ranking higher. And sometimes it's just, there was more opportunistic projects and they had to make a choice between, you know, multiple good projects and didn't have enough money.
what the grain is looking for. So each cycle might have slightly different twists on the intent. And lately, as Jack alluded to, we're in a waste water climate right now

the the state is trying to push that forward. So they're mostly all focused on wastewater, but sometimes it's more of a storm water focus or reclaimed water, wherever the um goals of the legislature are.
So the the biggest, the biggest issue I've had um um is dealing with not knowing the numbers, right? Because when I talk to you, Jack, about it and and anyone ‸ I've talked to the last four or five days, that's my biggest concern because we just don't

so I can be fair for every citizen uh that's going to be affected by this. um My question is, if we we implemented a mandate and all fails the grant, uh it's way over budgeted, we can't make it happen, it's not feasible. is there

That's what I voted for. Okay. I rise with several of my friends to say we're not, we don't want to participate in converting from our septic tank to sewer. In fact,

or haven't learned how they work, they're designed to leak. They're designed to fill up to a level and then let the influence drain out. Okay. uh One of the reasons I rise to oppose this is
the river at all. And I don't believe that I am. There's been no data to say what the relationship is between the bottom of the tank or the bottom of the drain field and the level of the lagoon and how far it is away from the lagoon. It would be very easy to test for that, but nobody's done that.

implementation. I'm going to talk about a letter that was delivered to the mayor and others um expressing the concern of some of the residents um on the implementation of the Save Our Indian River Lagoon project. Basically we're not opposed to conversion to sewer. What we question is the method of implementation to do it by running a pipe down Indian River Drive. um Installation of that pipe would not only threaten the scenic and historical landscape of the drive by destroying the root systems of trees which support wildlife and some

um It could possibly threaten the stability of the area through further erosion and cave-ins Should we search for alternative ways to hook these 92 homes to a sewer line?

This was documented again in the Florida Today paper. So if we're still studying Indian River pollution factors, why are we proposing destroying our historic drive for questionable return? In short, I just want to ask do you believe that tearing up our history on Indian River Drive for 92 homes will really make any noticeable difference?

my 85 years, I've seen a lot of changes to the lagoon. And we're not here talking about adding value to our home. We're talking about trying to bring back what we started out with, which is bringing back the lagoon. It is an asset. It's a ‸ great asset. It's nothing like it used to be.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:58:43–00:58:45 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
didn't come up with this problem of thinking that changing the septic system along the lagoon is going to help us is to help the lagoon. And I think we're losing, losing, ‸ losing face to that fact. ‸ And really,
first to thank you all for your considerations and for your coming up with what I thought in the last meeting that we talked about this, those five bullet points. And maybe there's some way we can change those around from ordinance to grants to bids. Look at bids. Is there any way ‸ to ‸ get
We're all talking about a problem that we don't know what the problem is. And that's the cost. And once we get a handle on the cost, then you can go out and look for the grants.

tax. We have all paid into that. We ought to get some of that back. But if there's a way to find out first what the cost is, then we can talk about how we're going to cover it. And I think that's, you've gotten some new information tonight that we didn't have before. You can just keep this on the agenda and get more facts.

good to be before you again. Thank you ‸ for considering this question. And thank you for all the work that staff has done. I know it's a sticky wicket and it's complex and a lot of moving parts.
understand what grants and how many and what's going on. But I come to you really with two messages. And one is now is the time. That's ‸ the first message. The grant. Pardon me. Oh, back to that. Right. Jenny Riggs. ‸ Yep. So now is the time. This.
grant environment is excellent. We've never been in an environment like that. ‸ It's really, we have the opportunity to make these fixes without really denting the city budget and without denting the budget of the ‸ homeowners ‸ that are here and that benefits all of the public. This is a public good that we're ‸ advocating for.

But there ‸ are three other grants. One is really uncapped. I think I saw earlier with Jack's presentation that perhaps that is actually capped at 8.5 million per project.

‸ Okay. Um, advancing this, there we go. All right. This last grant that, that was not really, I don't think on the radar of staff before. Brevard County received $21 million last year. So I think if we do our bids right, we're going to be able to provide the money for this. Um, the grant, the money is available. So if you look at just what Merritt Island got, um, they were 11 million last year.
and the South beaches were like six. So money is available. I can't stress that out enough. If we do our bidding and do our work, this can be paid for. What can Coco do tonight? What I understand, I thought there was perhaps an ordinance already prepared, but it Coco, the council can direct staff to develop an ordinance to mandate residential hookup.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 01:03:36–01:03:38 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
Well, I feel like that's the only way forward. Advanced septic is a bandaid and a distraction. This is the way we need to go to get it all done. Direct staff to get update and bids and apply for the grants. Something new to me is that the national estuaries program for the lagoon will help the city write all the grants. We'll do that for free. Um, so you know, it's not that we're just depending on our one grants person to get this work done.

I'm not exactly sure on those details. The DEP grant managers ‸ will happily take your call ‸ and help clarify any of the concerns you have about it. We do that each time as well. ‸ Oftentimes DEP-specific grants that come from legislators, not them funneling federal monies, but just their money themselves is 50-50. So you could request using the Sorrel funds, you could request to use that as a match and basically double that money. And so that is an option. ‸ You could specify in your application that you want to use the funds for both the right-of-way construction and private side assistance to homeowners, if so choose. So they're fairly flexible, especially at the beginning. Before you get down to contracting, they just want to know what are the constraints of the project, potential benefits, game plan.

So even though we don't have a signed contract, it's budgeted, we have the agreements and the conversation between us. So as far as this initial step, that is good enough. And ‸ Jack would probably agree that it's probably intelligent, or I mean, ‸ what would you call it?
wouldn't rely just on those old numbers, right? Add a little more contingency for what we've expected, costs overruns or increases to be. If we want to include homeowner site expenses, go ahead and add that line item to the budget. You know, I'd say,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:09:23–01:09:24 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
the question earlier about what are the chances of getting grants, it says something that they're extended deadline. ‸ You know, ‸ I don't want to speak for them, but they're obviously looking for projects.
Yeah. Coming to the contracting steps, they're going to drill down on the details, but as far as getting in front of them, that is a legitimate application, and oftentimes that application portals ask for even less than that. So, yeah, so ‸ these are often one-page applications that just want to know the constraints of the project, your estimated budget, ‸ what you have, and your estimated costs, ‸ and move forward from there. St. John's usually asks for more, but the DEP ones are, they've simplified it into a quick online portal that you just fill in details. Okay.

individuals that are, and to come back to the podium, what about the individuals that do not want to connect, even though there's a state mandate that requires them to connect, even though their system may be operable at maximum potential?

We don't have that information for the DEP. That's why we say it's a good idea for the mandatory because it puts you... Even if you're competing with someone else, they know you have a more reliable project because of the mandatory connection. St. John's will just kick you out if you don't have it,

Different grant agencies have different ways of communicating up front what they desire. So... We know at the St. John's, they ‸ look for ‸ mandatory connection up front.
So I can't speak to that. They're going to cut you out because you don't have it. But I know in the back end on the contracting, if you don't follow through with the number of homes connected, they're going to have questions ‸ about their money not being used to its full potential.

be relying upon, is that there be mandatory connection, no exception. You know, the ordinance that would be written is ‸ that it's just that. It would mandate connection, no exception for this area in order to comply with the grant conditions. And I don't know what the terms and conditions of the grant could be.
day, if you don't compel mandatory connection, there could be a clawback provision. I don't know. I'm just speculating. The other aspect is right now, you're looking at spending, you know, close to eight, eight to

you know, to the extent that you don't mandate connection, I would imagine you have a lower, lower benefit for dollars expended from a policy standpoint.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 01:19:47–01:20:00 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
and just preliminary thought process ‸ is the current ordinance is what I just stated. There are exceptions for septic. So to the extent that the city council needed to mandate hook up in this particular area, the justification for that would be the Tetra Tech study and the deterioration of the Indian lagoon because ‸ of septic tanks. It would, would be a rationale to support a slightly different set of rules that apply in other places in the city that are, that have septic tanks that aren't as close to the Indian river lagoon.
and that that works because I did attach a map to the agenda and there are a number of other properties, way more than 19, but they're all west of US 1. So in, in, in that thinking because they're so far disconnected from the river that I think the exception for no environmental harm can be granted to all of those. It's the ones that are on the east side is what we're talking about on ‸ Indian river circle. They are in that, in that kind of, in that sweet spot where there's, although they're not the closest, they still have potential impact. impact. And so I think Councilman, uh, uh,
a mandatory sewer connection in just a small portion of the city that has a great, a great impact on the Indian river lagoon Versus your existing rules that apply elsewhere in, in, in the city with that provides for the opportunity of septic tank owners to, to be granted an exception provided there's no environmental harm. in this area, in the area that we're talking about, there would be a finding by the City Council that there is an environmental harm for these particular septic tanks because of the data that's been presented in the Tetra Tech study and, you know, the Save Our Indian River Lagoon studies.

Oh, as you're calculating the amount, I think you and Jack got to the point of including the residential component of it and the inflation with that, and that would get you more in the 10.2 ratio, so you came to that point. The other was with Mr. Garganese that really these benefits are not for the homes. In fact, there's going to be considerable disruption in these homes.

will set a shining example to other communities that may be on the fence about doing their part to stop the sources of pollution. If we act with a clear view to the long-term benefits of stopping this pollution source, and others act with us in other identified projects, then all of the great work being done to restore the natural habitats of the lagoon,
pilot programs to increase water turnover rate and salinity, have a good chance of maintaining the health of the lagoon going forward. If we do not stop the root causes of such pollution, such as septic discharges, then these habitat restoration programs will simply not be enough. And please do not consider the band-aid idea of advanced septic systems, which simply do not stop the discharge, even when new. When not maintained properly, they will revert back to even higher levels of discharge. I urge you not to be distracted by the short-term challenges of going forward with this project. Any project worth doing with long-lasting benefits such as this one has challenges, but these can be overcome and the impacts will go away quickly after the project is completed. Yes, we'll have to work hard to secure the additional grant money needed, to lay out the legal pathway to ensure connectivity of the homes designated for local residents, myself included, to be tolerant of detours and disruption to our carefully landscaped lawns. But again, these short-term, these are short-term challenges that a well-functioning city council and community can and should endure in order to preserve the long-term health and well-being of its residents and to ensure continued economic growth of our city and this community. Please think about the long-term impacts of not voting yes and not about the short-term inconveniences. Let's do the right thing for our city and the

because I still hold that the tear tech is incorrect and that a lot of the homes along Indian river, especially the ones in broadview manor because it's a double lot front and back. We are in the second tier, which the number of nitrogen and the cost goes down.

So when you're going to be, river road's a very tight road anyways. So when they're going to be digging a big hole to put a pipe in and clearing out the coquina and roots go through coquina very well, how many, what's the chances of taking half the trees out down river road, killing
at all. I understand that, but the whole thing is there's a chance of taking a lot of those trees out because you're going to be taking out roots. When she brought that up, I used to be a superintendent. I totally forgot all this, but you are the expert here. We have to consider that because if they do put ‸ the pipes in and you lose half the trees, we're going to have all these gripes in the meetings again.
but the chances of killing some are going to be very high. No doubt about it. Okay. That's a fair point. In the question of Mr. Walsh, when there's a large amount of coquina and you're going to be drilling and plunging, I know if you go through solid rock with diamond blades, they last a lot longer than coquina. Is that correct?

So as far as the grant, Mr. Walsh, when we have to go on the private side, because some houses may have decorative walls or whatever that may be, or groups of crotons or whatever that is, is ‸ that cost included in the construction of the pipe coming from home to mainline? Okay.
That would be part of what we would seek on behalf of the homeowner or that the county would seek for impact fees, removal of septic, basically replacing the land, the hardscaping, what we're talking about, you know, any concrete walls, anything that would be

100 feet or more back. So that just makes it that much more expensive. So I think we would need to really try to get a, if we were going to try to group all that together, which for me personally or professionally as your, as your engineer here, uh, doesn't make, doesn't thrill me because I want to keep private and public money separate, but I get the idea to try to combine everything together so that we can qualify for the, the largest amount and then figure out how to keep track of it later.
and just to point out, I think, uh, Ms. Tammy, uh, pointed out that, you know, if we use the high end estimate at 8.2 and then add the estimate that I did, which is just 25 a lot,
We would want to really look at that. That already puts us over to a 10.2, which would be the maximum we could get back from a DEP grant at a 50, 50 match.
But, but you know, yeah, so, so I've seen, um, and when, when I have submitted bids ‸ that majority of the time, the engineer's estimate is normally higher than the bid that comes in normally from what I've seen. Right. Right.
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:40:43–01:40:43 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
But how we would approach the individual homeowners, we'd have to take a closer look at that between now and really the 15th to try to come up with a, a better estimate. Even, even if it was just assuming a hundred and something feet per lot, 92 lots. But again, I've driven up and down there and it really varies based on the landscaping and really based on some of the homeowners describing that they, their drain fields are in the back. So the plumbing's got to go out the back and they've got pools and decks and stuff in the back and it has to swing around and come to the front.

Uh, no, that was based on if, if the, if the grant allows a 50% match 50, 50, that means that 55.1, which is what we think we can get from save our Indian. If we have a hundred percent connections, I double that. And that gets me to the 10.2.

of money to work with those individual homeowners, but within the specific project areas, it's, it's kind of, it's the city's responsibility to see the project.
‸ So the city, the, the private side isn't included. We can use the 5.1, the 10.2 for the public side. And then there's a, there's a pot of money that we, the city could make application to for the, uh, for the private

That's, it's a million dollars a mile when you have to start from scratch. And that's basically what you're doing. Two lanes is a million dollars a mile. Remember me asking that question to PA paving? So if, if, if,

for a big grant and split it, then we're going to have to take a quick look. And I could take a, give you my professional opinion, go up there and, but I, I remember in one of the original community meetings I had, people came up in that meeting where they're describing like some of the challenges about how their septic comes out the back of their house. Meaning the plumbing comes out the back, the drain fields in the back.
around the house, go through everything, the hard deck, a pool deck, all that, and then go down the front and then through landscaping and other things. So it's, it's
maybe I try to find, you know, out of 92 lots, you try to find the, ‸ you know, five or 10 of the worst things and then use that and just multiply that by 92 instead of trying to curtail it, take the worst case, you know, and try to put some numbers. How far is it?
How much for the, you know, how much for the, uh, irrigation replacement, the sob replacement and the hardscaping and try to come up with an average number. Okay. Uh,

That resolution, the change that we made, was because we recognized that with the birth of the Citizens Academy, that we were generating a lot of volunteer leaders that were looking for places ‸ to be involved. That resolution was never meant to disrespect anyone. It was meant to generate leadership, volunteer leadership, and engage and increase citizen participation. There are all the right intentions there. Now, I called Jim to talk with him this weekend. And I thanked him for his service because I have sat on that board.
I asked him, would you consider staying on as an alternate so that we could move, we could have some progression there and be more dynamic. We also do have several people there that have been there a while that are in the position to take the chairmanship and that are eager to do so. But Jim wasn't interested. It would, you know, he only wanted to be in that position and presumably continue as chair.
I believe in generating fresh leadership, in generating volunteer leadership and citizen engagement. And these advisory committees are the best way we have to do it. So, that's why, that's why I put that resolution forward. Not to disrespect anyone.

Thank you, mayor. Um, this resolution is, uh, one of the things that we have to do to comply with the truth and millage, um, requirements. And so I did have a excellent presentation to provide to you, but due to the late hour, um, the information is there. We had some good examples of comparisons of tax bills, um, to show that it's very hard to just average out what the impact is. But we had some, you know, it all depends on the exemptions. And, um, so the information is there and I'd be happy to answer any questions on the presentation. Uh, but regarding the resolution, it includes establishing a rollback rate of 5.9866 mills.

DR 420 form. Um, and, and so we're, we're just simply asking you to approve what's listed in the title on the agenda report. That is both the title and the motion that is necessary.
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:17:18–02:17:18 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
that was actually, um, and so, so the changes to, to the records policy are, are, are not really more like changes, but they're, they're clarifications and updates there. The policy hadn't been updated since, uh, 2013. And so, uh, that was nine years and there, there, there are a lot of changes

And so again, that only applies to open our pending requests. That was something that she's been doing that wasn't, uh, codified or written into the policy. And so we're just merely attempting to say this. These are the criteria. This is the standard that she uses when she's amending, uh, a subsequent, uh, request to an existing request there.

because I think we do a fine job of doing that. Uh, and then there's legislative, uh, there's a legislative determination that taxpayers shouldn't shoulder the entire expense of responding to an extensive request for public records. I.e. the general public shouldn't pay for, um, an expense of individuals who want these

of July, thus far, we've had 17 requests and only one of those have actually had a charge there. So, so again, this, the, the intent of this is not to try to extract any sort of, uh,

this console. I have had the experience of being harassed. With FOIA requests. From one person. When I say harassed, I mean literally every email that I wrote, that was sent to me, every text, every phone call. He even asked for my GPS coordinates and thank you so much for not providing those. Based on my phone. So I am very sensitive to being harassed

well. And I do know this about doing research, discovery, that one, finding out one thing can easily lead to wanting to know another thing. One piece of evidence leads you to ask questions in another direction. And that's why I object to the part of this that deals with the cumulative requests. And how they, how they will be determined. Because it, this is really, uh, putting up roadblocks to being able to do that. Whether it's the media or whether it's a citizen watchdog or whoever. And as, throughout my candidacy and in campaigning, transparency has always been a pillar. And I, I believe in that from the bottom of my heart. I've been harassed by it and I hate it. But the reality of it and the spirit of the Florida laws are that everything that we generate is paid for by taxpayers and should be available to them without penalty. And this could potentially, uh, present a roadblock to that.
narratives and not false narratives. And that number of persons or multiple individuals constantly demanding records, which occupy and type a lot of time with the ladies in the, um, records there in the city clerk's office. And that's frustrating. And, and I know what it's like. So my thing is, this is a current record as Squire Garganese has made this vividly clear city manager expounded and elaborate on this. It's clear and concise. It is current.

‸ I'm going to try to keep this as brief as possible. In June, the city was advised that they were ‸ by back rep that they were having difficulty finding buyers for the home at 1115 Broadmoor Drive. The primary issues are that buyers were not able to qualify to for the because of the criteria of the increased interest rates and increased sale prices.

Thank you sir. So back on June 7th, we had approached you, council, about coming before you with special events that required approval for gated or admitted emission events versus street closures. And so you guys said to only allow street closures to come before council for approval and all others would be approved through the city manager. So that's mainly the changes that were made to the ordinance. While we were making these changes, we did have some changes that we made regarding from different departments. We had public works, police and fire all input on changes that they would like to see in the ordinance. So some of those were related to maintenance of traffic plans and then also personnel services that are required at events. So that those personnel services hadn't been updated in many years. So again, it's to maintain the safety of the public at the events.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; the recognizer flagged its own output · 02:33:11–02:33:23 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
on this one was the 30 day to pay for all city employees, like dealing with paying for fire all up front, paying for fire, police all up front. In some cases, you may have events that may be a nonprofit and the nonprofit may not have all of the funds to fund it.
‸ My invoice comes to me, ‸ they make me do a deposit and then I do a final invoice once the event is complete, once they know how many number of officers have been hired or added or subtracted. That's my only thing as far as council is just I don't feel like that the 30 days in some case you might have to be kicking out $8,000 for ‸ all those services and that ‸ particular event coordinator, again, may be a nonprofit. So that's my, I would like to modify the 30 day. The 30 day could be a deposit instead of full payment, 100% full payment. Because, you know, just speaking of the Easter event,
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 02:34:45–02:34:53 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
So I guess I'm just throwing that out there for me. Possibly if y'all would consider deposit at 30, final payment once the invoice and once all the police first responders are all counted for, so they know exactly how much the amount would be.
what I've experienced. So say if the event, 30 days I did a deposit, the day of the event we're done ‸ by, just say it was on, ended on Sunday, by Tuesday, I end up getting
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:35:55–02:35:55 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
the 30 days it's you pay for what we say we're going to have. And then if that changes at all, whether that be we invoice you or we need to refund you, we do that directly following the event. So that is how we handle it right now.
Can we consider doing a deposit at 30 final payment after the event is over with it? That's what I'm asking. If, if not, then that's fine. I just, I'm just thinking about

Yeah, from, from the events that I've done, I've gotten the invoice for the final balance of officers or first responders used for that event. We got an invoice maybe possibly two days later, a day later once the count is done.
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:38:01–02:38:01 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
We pay, we do it up front, but if there are any changes in personnel, because we have had issues where we are, sometimes last minute we require one additional firefighter or we have police officers who can't make it or something happens. So we end up making those adjustments, whether it's a refund or invoice, we can do that after the event. But the payment for the personnel that we say are going to be there should be paid in advance so we can guarantee it's actually going to happen. That's not paying it ahead of time gives us the ability to be able to say you can't hold your event if you haven't paid your balance. If we let them have
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 02:38:48–02:38:52 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
in the event that you only take say a 50% deposit and then you wait until after the event, you have expended extra personnel hours to attend the event and you're going to end up in situations where you may be chasing money for the remaining balance. So ‸ you're going to be out of pocket the extra personnel expense, correct? ‸ Yes. ‸ And
