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.
874 suspect passage(s) marked in place; inspection incomplete: language review.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 28 voices separated from the audio.
73 short machine repair(s) (79 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 94.0% of 35,233 content words.
Dotted words (816 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
874 passages (20% 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.

The agenda. As you all know, under item number 9, under public hearing, I'll be asked that that particular item be tabled. So I would ask to amend the agenda to reflect item number 9, under public hearing, be tabled. And I'm looking for a second. I'll second that. Okay. We have a second on the floor by Councilman Dow.

Okay. All right. Now it's working. Okay. So, the city's hosted summer interns continuously since 2015. I think we skipped during COVID one year. ‸ And this was a program that we had back in the early 2000s that we brought back in 2015. Our priority with this program is with COCO

So, different, all different capacities. And we partner with CareerSource annually with this project. And we also partner with the high schools. So, the guidance counselors really help push the student to fill out their application. There's kind of a little interview process. We do some training to get them some interview skills.
So, working in their community. So, and our HR staff is tremendous to bring this together. So, and it's almost like herding cats sometimes. Like chasing down paperwork. And ‸ Margaret Turgeon here, she's our HR recruiter. And ‸ this is like kind of like her baby project. And Alyssa Backer here, she's our HR technician. And she's behind the scenes getting all the, helping organize all the paperwork. And getting the students here for their onboarding. And so, it's a lot of behind the scenes on our staff. So, and they create a lot of bonds with the kids. And ‸ it's really fun for us to do. So, and so, we'll start bringing the students up to present them. We'll do an alphabetical order. I think there's two students that couldn't make it tonight. But we'll get their certificate to them. They did complete the project.

And I appreciate you allowing me to speak. The commercial property group is alive and well. There were council members that have gone to the meetings we've had at the Civic Center because it's increased that much as far as members.
So, the main representative, which is Mac Osborne at Travis and also Lois, they are familiar with what I'm going to discuss today. And what I wanted to do, and it's unfortunate, this ‸ is involving projects that are pending and coming to the council.
17 acres. Basically, it's unfortunate, but I have been keeping it low-key for some of the things that are transpiring by one of the council members that the newspaper ‸ has identified as a naysayer. And I'm a little shocked and disappointed. The problem is, is that, for the record, there's following issues where attacks have been made to the city manager, statements about the city attorney, the police chief, the fire chief, who's been here for eight years, which I don't want to go into the details, but I can provide it for you all

The other thing that is a problem from the naysayer is micromanaging staff, so much so to the point that the mayor required an apology during a public meeting to the public works director.
The next thing is a reference to the council. Same thing. We, the naysayer requires a re-voting on many of the items already approved by the council. Altering council minutes. Whining when being outvoted as a victim. Currently.
Undermining new projects by the following information. And this is where the crossing of the line happened. Because there's no reason for this to be ‸ happening. Undermining projects by giving out misinformation. ‸ Calling the property that is coming up before the council.
Three of those are the time she spent on the council. So this is a newbie that is not familiar with the history of the property. The other thing is an issue that was brought up by
up. Would you support that project? And that means site plan. Surveys. St. John's water management approval. Things like that. The naysayer never answered.
Again, Mayor, it's up to the council. I mean, if he's duly authorized to speak on behalf of that person... And ‸ you believe that he's presented... Too... Yeah. The information to verify that he's speaking on behalf of another person... The council has allowed... You know, a person to speak... On behalf of someone else. So, I mean, I'll leave that judgment to the council. What are the

Thank you. This is where the line was crossed about the 17 acres on Indian River and Dixon Boulevard. It is unbelievable that a council member ‸ would go and send a letter to the St. John's Water Management District that you have a copy of, signed by that council person, which basically means that that council person is representing the city council in its entirety. I think that's a charter issue there because the letter was basically stating to the St. John's Water Management District, ‸ do not approve an extension that was already approved for that 17 acres. That is crossing the line. That is totally unacceptable. That
And you're sending the wrong message out to the public. The citizens should not be treated like that. In summary, the council needs to make it very clear that it does not endorse, condone, or agree with any of the naysayers' outrageous and brazen violations. And
And I guarantee you, I know all of you on the council, not one of you would have done any of those violations I highlighted. That was done by the naysayer. If you've had time to look at it, don't be afraid to let me know if I'm wrong by saying you would not repeat it. It is a ‸ violation. It's a tort violation, and it could be involving a lawsuit. All the above and accepted violations, yet the naysayer wanted to be nominated as ‸ the deputy mayor when the elections were over. This act proves adjectives equal to being narcissistic, centimonious, power-hungry, and a disruptor. However, the naysayer needs to resign or be asked to leave. You will never be equal to the following ladies, class ladies.

The other one was the mayor, Diane Gunn. And the one ‸ only that I was on the council with, Jewel Collins, that Alex and I fight over whose mother that is. But that's an example of the kind of class of council members that are totally class,
But it doesn't stop there. The other staff is micromanaging going on, and this is crossing the boundary. You have a city manager here. It is his job to oversee the work that the people are doing.
I'd like to finish on a positive note. This is the last of it. The golf cart is here that I ordered. I wanted the council to see it, but because of the rain,
But that was something that we're going to need to see on the agenda. I think I got a consensus the last time it was brought up. I also think that it's very important because of the amount of work that the city manager is doing. We need to look into the possibility of an assistant for the city manager.
And the last thing is the parking stripes in the downtown area. They're not divided out. People are missed parking. That also needs to be on the agenda. I hope there's a concession for that. I
So because of that and because I had the support of the P&Z board, I want to make it official that I would like to be included in all the meetings, even though the naysayers saw to it that I should not be called for the meeting that they had at.

first of all, I had nothing to do with that. Secondly, this is the fourth time you've come forward since we ‸ determined that we were not going to increase the density of the property that you want to develop on
it at this point. Code enforcement has ‸ cited you ‸ for it. I am not in the least bit ashamed of having written a letter to the St. Johns River Water Management District making them aware of the development of this property. And all it is is an inquiry, and particularly because the mitigation that was going to be done to that environmentally sensitive land, those wetlands, that mitigation was going to be for a project in Cape Canaveral. So myself, along with a dozen of my neighbors, were interested in seeing a better future
One that would protect the neighborhood overall with the flood mitigation because that is an area of severe surge. Whenever we get a surge, that area is going to flood. It's going to stand in water. It's like any other river. The Indian River Lagoon expands. And that's why FEMA is spending millions, billions of dollars buying up properties like that so that they can remain natural and so the river can do what it does, particularly in light of sea level rise. So, you know, this is the fourth time you've been here with basically the same complaint. I'm sorry. I'm not, I feel no remorse for this. In fact, I feel like this is, you know, why I'm here is to champion certain issues that I have a background in. Furthermore, I moved here, ‸ I was married March 28, 2012. I've lived here since then.
My husband has been here all his life. So, for some reason, because I married into this place, I'm not a legitimate citizen. I don't think so. There are a lot of people in my neighborhood

There was no US 1. So how they fixed it, they took a drag line and took the dirt from that piece of property and built River Road up. And now that's why it's low in retention pond in front of that 17 acres, which is north of Dixon. That's exactly what happened in 1951 after we had a severe storm that washed out River Road.

of that property a mile when Matthews Hope is really asking for an inch. It may not be reasonable for me to expect the council to change the unanimous vote that you gave this at the first reading. So my ask is simple. I ask that you table tonight's vote, that you request city staff go back and propose an alternative solution that takes a slower, more incremental approach, a solution that does enable Scott to move forward with the 12 to 14 units within the current footprint without giving Matthews Hope or any future owner of the property full reign to develop up to 25 dwelling units

Forest Avenue. I'd like to thank ‸ my neighbors, as Colette mentioned. We didn't know about this. There was a legal ad that was put in the paper by the city back in May.
The previous agenda meeting where this had the first reading on July 11th, there was no address on it. Tonight, suddenly, there is an address on it. But like the others, I support the mission of Matthew's Hope. I've been ‸ there. My wife and I have provided donations to them. But I'm not sure. ‸ My first question is, ‸ who put the plans forward? My understanding is the property is owned not by a nonprofit, but it's owned by ‸ Charity Properties, which is an LLC out of St. Louis, Missouri. So in that case, they should be paying taxes to the city. I believe Matthew's Hope is a tenant of them. This seems to have flown under the radar over the past few meetings. And again, without some of the great work of many of the neighbors that are here tonight, we wouldn't have known about it. And as Mr. Zimmerman just presented, there was a grassroots campaign to go and talk to the neighbors. Why didn't anybody reach out directly to our community to be able to find out what the plans are?
That's fantastic. Not in our area. Maybe serious crimes going down. Maybe violent crimes going down. Petty crime and crimes of opportunity have been going through the roof in the area adjacent to this establishment. Everybody on my street parkway has had something stolen from them. Just last week, I had somebody that came up and trespassed on my front porch at 540 in the morning. There have been an increase of vagrants, loitering and trespassing all over the community.

We're in our 14th month. And we've not had issues. I do want to apologize for the comment I made. But at the same time, if people knew what I was talking about, what I see happening across the street from us, that was happening before we got there, we'd realize that that is exactly what I called it. I just should have used a better name for it. It's a shame. Now, the good news is, is that we don't just bring anybody in. That's not how this works. Most of our folks, quite honestly, are homeless females with children. And we actually have the bulk of those spots actually within a fenced area that those females, nobody can get to them unless you know how to get in that area. So I'd say if there ends up being, say, 14 units, basically 10 of those units are going to fall into that area. We have people that would have some staff member that would live on site.
that if something were to happen, if you were to share with us a crime that's been committed on your property, we could actually look and tell you exactly if that person was homeless and had anything to do with here.
But I will tell you that homeless people are a direct reflection of this very community that sits in this room. If you're an arsonist, you're an arsonist. It has nothing to do with whether you're homeless. If you're a thief, you're a thief. It has nothing to do with whether you're homeless. Most of it is petty crime when they do it, quite honestly. At the same time, we're not talking about allowing people to ‸ live there that do those type of things.
No, quite honestly, you would not even know we built anything because we're not building anything. We're renovating inside the current building. But it does require that we get the zoning to be able to do that.
anything being done because we're not doing that. I'm here mostly to answer questions. Like I said, we have been wide open. ‸ We are all over Facebook. We are all over the news. There should be no surprises to anybody. But the other side is know that our open door policy is here. If you have a question, just ask. I'll make myself available 24-7. Even when the police department called us the other night at 1130 with a 77-year-old woman that was homeless, we responded.

It was a legal ad. The legal ad has the legal description of the property. And so, I'm not sure when it comes back for zoning, if the zoning doesn't have a legal description of the property and the address. But it was a legal ad. You know, that gives you the description of the property. The legal description of the property. It also highlights various streets there with a map. ‸ The
legal ad actually noted it was on Forest Avenue. It gave the actual legal description, which is required for the legal ad. And it actually had a map of the location in the ad. Okay. So, it was there.

Yeah. Yeah. Because this is, you know, your goals, this project, laudable. Um, the operation that I observed very efficient, very clean. Um, and you took us to some housing.
Okay. And, okay. And, and the people that would be living in these, um, units, they actually work for you, or they work for others, or are they working?
Mm-hmm. Points can be used. Let's say somebody wants to pay child support so they can see their kids. They can earn that. If they want to have their teeth replaced, they could do that. If they wanted to go to college or learn to trade, they could use those funds for that. Anything that moves them towards a life of independence and self-sustainability.

So, we're teaching people how to use that equipment and get used to using ‸ computers and things like that. And so, they call us and they say, again, who's got the work ethic?

And that's usually if they came in, because a lot of these folks have come in and they've lost a spouse. They've gone through, a lot of the females have gone through abuse. There's financial situations, and so it takes us a while to clean up those health and financial or legal situations before they can move on.

by 50, or excuse me, not highway 50, US 1. That's how that came about. So, we're actually going back to the original zoning that it was a couple years ago. The plan has always been to have transitional housing. That's never been a question. It's where and how we would do that. That was, we did not, at the time, have a specific desire or need or trying to figure out what we have. But we also knew, based on what we bought, that the understanding that was given to us when we sat down with everybody at the city was, that's what this property had been. And so, that's why I took you, if you recall, to the houses and to explain to you how it went.
But we did that specifically so everybody was very clear what our long-term range was and what we were going to do. You know, the challenge is, is everybody ‸ wants to say, not in my backyard. And the problem is, is they're literally in your backyard. And with our assistance and with our expertise and what we do, and we've

We don't discriminate to who we help, but we discriminate on how we help. And what I mean by that is, if you're a sexual offender or something like that, you cannot be anywhere near that property. If you have a violent history, you cannot be anywhere near that property.

serve grew up in this community, went to Cocoa High School, went to Rockwoods High School, had homes in this community. These are not people that just showed up from nowhere. They've lived here. This is their home. They just don't have a roof over their head. And often, if you do the research, you find there's some type of trauma involved. And often, it's loss of a spouse. It's loss of a child. You know, I shared a while back that you don't have a drug problem in this community. You have a homeless problem in this community. Drug addicts don't become homeless.

And I support that. But I'm also sympathetic to the neighborhood who is not expecting, who moves in, not expecting to have high density and that sort of transitional housing. Mostly, I take note of comments by Ms. Weisberg. I think ‸ we need to look at all ‸ the ways that we could tackle this. It's not necessarily by a future land use change.

All right. So I take what the citizens that came in and their concerns, I take it serious. However, when you look at the homeless problem here, ‸ I heard someone state that they're seeing more foot traffic in their neighborhood. That's literally everywhere, not just off of Forest Avenue, all the ‸ way on the north end of Cocoa, south end, west end, anywhere you look around, there's more homeless people. And that's because of the climate around the state, but the higher cost of housing and all kind of other issues.
they're taking these people and giving them resources so they don't have to do that. As he stated, you know, there's always open doors over there. And I see them everywhere announcing the plans of what they're doing.

I would just ask people to actually reach out, get informed before you start making these assumptions. And ‸ again, being homeless is not a crime. And one reason ‸ we do see a lot of homeless here because other communities are dumping them here. I've actually witnessed it. They're being dumped in the city of Coco. So we can either turn a blind eye to it and have an even bigger issue that we have to deal with, or we can work with our partners, work with our resources and address this problem.
Also, in terms of this exact neighborhood, just maybe a couple feet north of the Wells Fargo, which is next door, there was once a probation office right there where there was a high influx of people actually with criminal backgrounds. And to my knowledge, I don't recall us having any major issues of increasing thefts at that time. I could be wrong,

Yeah, just a few things. So ‸ inside of majority of neighborhoods in Brevard County, in pretty much every city in Brevard, there's homes inside of neighborhoods that have homeless population living in homes ‸ from the homeless coalition, foster care programs. There are juvenile group homes, which I worked at for years, and that host families in need inside of residential neighborhoods. They're always going to be concerned. So residents that are here that are against
we ‸ understand. People who don't live in your neighborhood may not understand where you're coming from, but we have to be listening to your thoughts. We understand what you're saying. But also, there's another population that we must care for. Just recently, you know, it's kind of hard to talk about it, but

So we understand your concerns 100%. And so one of my questions for you, Mr. Blue, so when residents come who need help, how is the security, ‸ do you have a relationship with the police department? Is there security that will be there at night? Because I think that's some of the concerns maybe with someone stays, what's going to stop them from, you know, having that binge night or whatever the case may be, and they just leave and go through the neighborhood and just go crazy? What is that process?
Yes, sir. In fact, we've had it and so far enjoyed a great relationship with the Cocoa Police Department and several of individual sheriff deputies throughout Brevard County. We've gotten calls from the department on situations. We've had homeless people brought to us on occasion. And that's the way it works. That's how we do it over in Orange County, and it worked.

But I will also tell you with those 45 cameras, what do you want to see? I'll ‸ show you right now. You can't pass gas in that property without me knowing it. And I mean, it's just really that, it's that tight. And then, like I said, we've got it set up in such a way that it's protected with codes. There's ‸ code, keypads to get to every place over there.

But those ones that we can't, a couple things, and we've shared this with the merchants downtown, and you should already be starting to notice it, is we're going to hide them in plain sight by allowing them to come in for showers, haircuts, medical care for my medical team. Today we treated nine people in medical. We had 66 homeless people come in today. You have an exorbitant amount of females in this area. We're seeing right now roughly of the homeless population, 35% to possibly higher than that are females.
never seen anything like that. You have a huge group of disabled, and I'm not talking about mentally ill. That's a whole other thing itself. However, even with those folks, ‸ with the psychiatric nurse practitioner that's on my staff,
on medications that will help them do better. But the reality of it is, is not having a state tax in the state of Florida, a lot of that just gets pushed back out of your street. And Matthew's Hope and nobody else, we can make a dent and we can make it better, but until much bigger people in all of it can do something about that, we can't change that.

We had a girl cry today because she was provided something as simply as tampons. It's tough being a woman out there. ‸ It's tough. When I was homeless, I hated it, but I cannot imagine being a woman and being homeless.
We will help connect those people with other services and advocate for them for the services they need. And some of them are out there, but nobody is there to hold their hand through the process. And that's what my ministry does. We actually, it's very interesting, it's very biblical on how we do things. I mean, I was on a radio station recently, and they said, Scott, what you're doing is so innovative. And I had to laugh, ‸ nothing

I'm human, and I get frustrated when I see a drug deal go down across the street from my property, and I can't do anything about it. So, you know, I am. I'm human just like the folks here. But I tell you what, the biggest challenge I had today is that

walks a couple days to get here, and they're not qualified. They have a problem. Do you bust them back where they're from or just let them roam around the neighborhood? That's what they're concerned about.

That's their big concerns. I understand that.

ripped the door off, you know, their homeless is doing all this stuff.

in the audience, ‸ they don't want their stuff taken. They don't want the hasslement. And it's the people you're helping, they need the help. And it's a good thing. They're never going to ‸ cause any problems.
The only, well, here's what I'll say. First off, we don't have any housing now. And we've been doing services now to the homeless here, over 600 people that we have registered.
And nobody out there even knows we are going to have housing. So if somebody has come from, what do you say, two miles away or whatever, I suppose they can walk into any city. That's the nature of homelessness. You try to go to where you can possibly find some services. You know, I think the difference is, is that, here's the thing, whether we have the housing or not, everything else we're doing there is going to continue. The ‸ difference is, is that we won't be trying to get any off the streets because we won't have the resources to do it. Outside of that, everything we've done, ‸ investment we've made in the property, that all stays the same and we're going to continue to meet the needs of those people that do find us. Generally speaking, 85% of them come from right here in our backyard.
I mean, I can show you statistic after statistics. They're direct, I said it before earlier, they're direct reflection of our community. 100%. And the difference between what we're asking for and what we're already doing is that we would use that specific area to move people off the streets. Outside of that, the rest of what we do, we're here and we're here to stay. And we've invested heavily in the community. We're going to continue to do so. And we've made it ‸ very clear to the local merchants that we want to work with them. They have called us on occasion, asked us if we could check something out.
They are, but here's the other side of it. During the pandemic, what ended up happening is a lot of development took place and the woods ‸ disappeared. And when the woods disappeared, where are they going to go?
you know, many people don't realize Florida is the fastest growing homeless population in the entire country. We're number three in the U.S. for population. If we don't try to do something about it here, we will look like
I can go right down the list. So you either, you know that whole thing, you pay me now or you pay me later? The reality of it is, is the homeless are here. and they're here in droves. And what we do won't change either way, except it's our hope to take those few people that want to move towards a better life, that simply got broadsided by life in many ways and get them back on their feet. Without housing, that's tough to do. We don't,

accountability. ‸ Because here's the thing, your next door neighbor, you might not want it, but if they want it, they will throw you under the bus in about two and a half seconds. They are our best security. They are our absolute best security because they want it so bad. I mean, to get in it, the folks that are coming right now, they don't know it because we can't tell them we have housing. We can't make that promise. That hasn't been done yet. But we know, we know who's fighting for a spot. We know who wants to get off the street. And that's our goal right now is to move on that. That's why we did it just like we did in Orange County.

Thank you, Mr. Mayor. ‸ So as the city attorney noted, this is an ordinance 10-2023 for the PUD rezoning, and then it's also ‸ in addition to preliminary subdivision and development agreement and large-scale site plan for Adamson Creek Phase 2.
map you see is the location of Adamson Creek Phase 2, to the north of the property. ‸ I know it's hard to see on here, but ‸ the red area that you see, that's the Adamson Creek Phase 2. Up here
And ‸ then to the south is going towards 524. The final project will include 30 single-family homes. There will be recreational space amenities. This subdivision, the lots are 50 feet and by 120, with a depth that equates to 6,000 square feet. Staff does not expect the level of service for public facilities facilities to be diminished beyond their acceptable levels of service with this change. The development agreement for Phase 2 of the project contains 79.13 acres overall with 14.39 acres of land that will be developed. The remaining 64.74 acres of land will be placed in a conservation easement. 50.70 acres is dedicated to the city in lieu of contributions to the Arbor Mitigation Bank. And that is the plan for the Arbor Mitigation. This is the Phase 2 zoning, which will take that. You can see again, this is the Adamson Creek up here in pink. ‸ This is the area that needs to be rezoned to PUD. The future land use, again, here is Adamson Creek up here. Here is the location for Phase 2 that needs to have the future land use changed. The PUD analysis includes the maximum allowed is 4 units per acre,

regarding programming and construction. And that traffic signal that is being noted here would be the traffic signal along 524 and Adamson Road. ‸ Preliminary conversations with FDOT indicate that they may not even support a signal. The preliminary plat, a third-party surveyors, conducted the final plat subdivision review. An applicant will address those comments received before this July 25th meeting.

that 524 was being handled. And now we come with this ordinance here that basically wants to remove the minimum acceptable requirements there, go from a D because they would have to go from a D to an E or an F which are unstable and heavily congested traffic. Rather than addressing the problem, we're just passing off on

that will add additional traffic to 524. It's my recommendation that we do not pass this and that we address the real problem and get the problem and the traffic fixed on 524 Because there are issues there specifically regarding firehouse number 3 that need to be addressed and the service they have to provide and that congestion that will occur on 524 will affect service and possibly even lives as a result of it. Thank you very much.

Yeah, I am... This really gives me heartburn. I'm really concerned about 524. I sit on the Space Coast TPO. This project is number 4. What we're hoping here are that impact fees are enough that we can present that. We can basically lobby to be pushed up in line, but we're still looking at probably 10 years before that road is really significantly improved. We've got a fire station over there as you know. And just... I feel like we're opening the floodgates here because when I spoke with the city manager about this there evidently are a number of pre-applications in the area.
We already know it's a pretty crowded area. Isn't there anything short of getting ‸ rid of the levels of service? Isn't there anything short of this? Can we just restrict it to... And then get a little choosy about what we actually select to go over there? Because right now it's...
Does this have to be completely... Do we have no other options? Because this could get... Even in our best case scenario, this could get really hairy over there. I've lived in places where you sat in traffic for hours where you had to debate whether or not it was worth going out to get something. And the people that live here now, many of them are roadway refugees from the south even. So, you know, there's some serious concerns
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:11:25–02:11:25 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
how this will impact the quality of life as well as the safety of citizens in the area. Is there anything short of getting rid of level of service? ‸ Is my question.
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:11:53–02:11:54 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
So, I don't think we were reviewing Allegra 18 months ago so you couldn't have made that promise with regards to ‸ level of service. Obviously, Cirrus was. Cirrus is counted. Their traffic is already counted and considered

Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 02:12:19–02:12:29 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
in terms of its traffic counts there. So you have a state road that runs through the city. And because it's a state road, you have no control over when they're going to improve that road. And so the best case scenario is ‸ that you remove the minimum level of service. You work with the state agency. You work with federal agencies. As the councilwoman said there, it's actually moved up more than a number of spaces on the priority listing for the TPO. And so that's ‸ a great sign that it'll be in the top five priority of the TPO with regards to with regards to the regional, categories and with regards to the other categories.
This is a, this is ‸ a ‸ removal of the level of service, but with ‸ a plan to actually provide some financial assistance to the Department of Transportation to actually, and as the councilwoman said, to accelerate the timeline for the project.
The presentation talks about your ability to actually go to the, the Department of Transportation and say that we have the dollars in hand to actually fund design. And so once design is funded, that is actually moved into, normally moved into the five-year work plan for FDOT. we have that, we have approximately
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 02:14:48–02:14:50 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
in impact fees to our credit as of June of this year. And those projects that are under review are approximately that same amount in impact fees. So not only do we have an ability to fund the design, we have an ability to affect the right-of-way acquisition. The right-of-way acquisition is, is a, is a, mostly stormwater retention and detention there. You have significant properties off of 524 that could be utilized in cooperation with FDOT for their stormwater right-of-way requirements there. So, so we're in a, when a pretty good position when it comes to that. In fact, the Allegra, uh, project actually has a donation of land that may actually, uh, be able to assist us in adding to our inventory of properties that could assist with stormwater for, for the widening of this road. Um, and,
draw your attention to the ordinance And if you look at the roadways in the city, you'll see that most of them are levels of services, levels of service D and E. And so, this is a roadway, uh, just like any other roadway in the city. As a matter of fact,
the US one doesn't have a, any level of service. And so there are roadways in the city currently that don't have a level of service. And so again, it's a request to remove the level of services. Um, Charlene, go back to the, to the chart, um, that talks about where the deficiencies are. And so there are three segments of 524. Um, and you'll see the remaining trips, um, um, once those projects are approved.
um, once the, the, uh, the, uh, maximum, uh, annual or average volume is approved or adjusted, uh, after result of the project, then you'll have, um, go back, flip back to the one you were on,
You'll have 4,000, uh, 1,400 trips. Again, these are all the projects that are being considered. This is after the project. This is after the road is widened.
And so we're not talking about the entire stretch of roadway. We're talking about the Cox to Industry Road there. Um, with regards to the Cirrus project, FDOT is requiring, uh, Cirrus project to actually do a turn lane coming off of Industry Road. And so, um, the TPO has, uh, promised that they will partner with us, uh, to go after, uh, state dollars to prioritize it and, and perhaps even set aside some of their dollars there. But most significantly is that, uh, it's moved up on the two priority categories, which puts it in, uh, the likely funding, uh, realm for when the next, um, um, five-year work plan comes out from, from FDOT. Charlene, flip,
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:18:40–02:18:41 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
I think best-case scenario, and again, all the new projects aren't coming on. I think we're in the, we're in the five-year work plan within the next, uh, three to five years.
Well, when you say, um, because I know, okay, three to four years to get on the work plan, but to actually build the road, we're still talking about a decade.
mean, that's, that's a guess on your part. It would be a guess on my part. Uh, ‸ this allows us to go and work with FDOT, go and work with TPO, uh, go and work with the state, uh, go and work with the feds. Um, We just had a meeting with us and Senator Rubio's district coordinator and we talked extensively about this project.
are there no other alternatives there. The other alternative is you, um, you just simply aren't able to approve these projects because you don't have the capacity and as you know,
of government. The new construction tax revenue will significantly fund probably three quarters of what all the firefighters and the officers are in here for tonight. ‸ And so if we don't have an ability to approve projects ‸ and allow the city to continue to grow, then the city is at a standstill in terms of the public services it, uh, it can provide. And so last year, again, just to reiterate, um, we were ranked overall number 11.

Well, we're competing, we're competing at number four as opposed to number 11 last year ‸ where we weren't even in the conversation. And so in terms of the state rank, um, we're number two. Uh, I think Cape Canaveral may be number one or Minton Road may be number one, but last year we were number six or seven.

I'll remind the council that you have a, a, uh, stipulated settlement agreement and a settlement ‸ implementation agreement for, I knew I was going to forget the name of it.

And so, I, I don't know how you, uh, are, are bound by those agreements and deny that project because of traffic and currency. And so, I think this is the best, most creative, most forward-thinking way to actually accelerate, um, the, um, the, uh, continued growth of the city and the development of that quarter.
So, is there, we talked about the projects we have now three years to complete. When we get to the point where we really see a problem developing there, do we manage that through approving the PUDs? I mean, if we ‸ reach a point, which we conceivably could,

guess at some point in time, you could actually go back and ‸ add the road way back to, and Anthony make sure I'm correct on this, you could add the road way back to the transportation and the capital element of the comprehensive plan.
Okay, well, I think, like I said, this really gives me heartburn. This is one of those really tough decisions sitting up here because this could end up being a real problem for us. Of course, we'll be gone. But, I'm also cognizant of wanting to attract that train station. And, to a large degree, the development of that roadway will really make us more attractive for that.

I exit off Westminster ‸ 524 all the time. On Friday evenings, I do go through Sherwood out to the stoplight. But, I really haven't seen any serious traffic stoppage from Cox Road to Publix Where it slows down is around the corner to Clear Lake. And I believe that's getting ready to get addressed. Around the Walmart, it's three or four stoplights to go through Walmart. But, I haven't had a really serious problem

And, since I had the first conversation with DOT when we're out here at the Civic Center, the date for the plan has gotten moved up further and further and further. So, I think they're going to get it addressed as soon as possible. Thank you.

the attorney noted, this is ordinance 13-2023 ‸ relating to Mike Erdman. So the subject property was annexed into the City of Coco in 2006 and a commercial land use designation was assigned to the project to the property, but no zoning map designation ‸ was ever assigned to the property.

zonings. And you can see the map here where the property is located. Right now, This is the vacant parcel right here in front of the Mike Erdman Nissan and Toyota area.
this just addresses the zoning map, cleans it up, makes it CG general commercial, which is the subject property of where Mike Erdman is located. And again, addressing the future land use to correct that and make it match the rest of the properties there. Planning and zoning board did recommend approval to the City Council for this zoning map amendment from Brevard County, BU1 general retail commercial to city of Coco, CG. General commercial, this is first reading, And if you have any questions, I'll be available to answer them.
Chair, I'd like ‸ to close this portion of the council and return it to the public. What are the wishes of the public? Please come forward, state your name and your address. You have three minutes to elaborate, expound, discuss this particular ordinance, number 13-2023.

Like we stated, there's gonna ‸ be a multi-prong to this. We're gonna ‸ talk about the rollback, and then we're gonna ‸ talk about the millage rate. So without further ado, the floor is yours, Mrs. Bowman.
ma'am. This is the time of the year, every year that we go through and we establish what the proposed millage rate is going to be, which will, the budget will be developed, and then
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:34:59–02:35:00 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
come back to you in September for adoption of a tentative and then final millage rate and the budget itself. In addition, state law ‸ requires that we establish what the rollback rate is.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 02:35:12–02:35:20 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
I will go through the different millage rates as I go through the presentation so that we can publicly state what that rollback rate is. So at this meeting, as I said, we're requesting that you approve the resolution, which establishes the rollback rate. The rollback rate is 5.8285 mils in compliance with the trim statutes. We're requesting adoption of a proposed millage rate. in accordance, again, with the trim statutes.
to be. I would like to note that the minimum requirement for the millage rate that's being proposed tonight is a regular majority vote. We had discussed previously about a unanimous vote, and I did some checking with the Department of Revenue on the trim voting requirements because they're quite complex, and got confirmation that it is just a simple majority vote tonight on the millage rate that's going to be presented.

of that total valuation. So we did have a pretty healthy year for property values, ‸ which was due to increase in assessed value in addition to that new construction. And so as we show you every year, this is kind of a graphical view of the chart that I just showed you. And as you can see and on the chart on the previous slide, it showed this is finally in
we will drop off all the negative revenue from the Great Recession and we'll start having all positive numbers and positive growth on the slide, hopefully continuing well into the future. So this is a review of what the city's millage rates have been. Of note, in 2015, from 2015 to 2021, it was the same millage rate at 5.979
discussed at the budget workshop, this information here is prepared with an increase in the millage rate of 0.05 mils. So it has been prepared with a millage rate of 6.9532 mils. That primarily being to assist with increases in public safety wages and retention and attract recruitment. So overall, bringing the millage rate up at 6.9532 mils, that should allow us to recognize revenue of about $2.2 million,

So there are several things that you consider for options you can consider for the millage rate. You can keep it the same. We're showing you the final gross taxable values and the revenue that we were projected to collect. Of note, we don't collect everything. State statute says we need to budget at least 95% of the revenue that we anticipate. And sometimes it takes a year or two before we get full collection of that. But that's the projection that we should be able to collect from the year. As I stated previously,

‸ into ‸ the CRAs and what the difference is from the prior fiscal year using the, both the proposed millage rate at the 6.9532 mils and at the rollback rate, of 5.8285 mils. If you'll notice all the rollback rates are showing that there would be a loss in revenue for the CRAs. So we always take a look at what the other cities are doing in comparison
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 02:41:21–02:41:23 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
millage rate. But if you take a look at the Avalorum taxes that we're receiving, we're at about the fourth or fifth from the bottom. There are a few of the cities that are keeping their millage rate the same, such as Cocoa Beach and Palm Bay. And then some of them are just decreasing their taxes only slightly. And some of these cities, again have experienced strong growth. So again, ‸ the budget was prepared right now with a millage rate increase of 0.05 mils.
cities, as Ms. Bowman said there, we're collecting the least amount of revenues. You see in the Atlantic and Indian Harbor Beach and Melbourne Beach are much smaller cities than we are.
so, you know, just as you look at that slide there, obviously, there are a lot of people going above rollback, some less than current there. ‸ No one, not a whole lot of people are actually going to roll back there.

We're having to dip into this recurring revenue that we're getting from the increase in the property values. So we show you all, because obviously there's a concern about raising the millage rate, what that impact would be for homes that are valued at different rates. So if we took

of property was valued at ‸ that with the homestead exemptions, that that's the impact, the financial impact to the property owner. So this slide is showing you out of the 9,130 parcels that the city has, what the makeup is. You'll see up at the top there's 649 parcels that aren't paying anything in property taxes.

24. And ‸ the percentage has gone from 89% down to 83%. So that new, the new homes that are coming in that have a higher value are helping to try and redistribute some of that, the value and the revenue that we collect from those properties. and if you'll note, there are five parcels that are valued over $10 million. And that's your commercial property, which I'll show you in just a moment. ‸ So to understand Avalorum and your property taxes, you need to understand the different definitions. So the first definition is market value. Market value is if you sold your home is the net proceeds that you would get after paying your closing costs. And that's also referred to as just value. The next type of value is called the assessed value. So the property ‸ appraiser goes in and sets an assessed value on your property that's a capped value before other exemptions. And
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:47:55–02:47:55 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
that taxable value. And that's what we focus on is how much are we going to get from the taxes that we levy based on that taxable value. So to show you another way, you take your assessed value, you subtract all of your exemptions, of which there are many, and you wind up with the taxable value.
just say, we can look on average, and I'll show you in just a moment dollar-wise, but it's kind of hard to globally say an impact for every single piece of property.
we kind of average it out. And this is to explain to you the Save Our Homes assessment cap. Back in 1995, voters voted and said, yes, I want to limit the taxes. If some of you will recall or had homeownership back then, people were being taxed out of their homes. And so the Save Our Homes was put in place so that people didn't get taxed out of their homes because the property values were rising so significantly.
note, you have to apply for the homestead exemption and qualify. There's qualifications to that as well to be able to receive that homestead exemption. If you don't have a homestead exemption, your property could be value, assessed value, could be increased up to 10%. So make sure that, again, ‸ every property has its story. If you had a home and you sold it and you had the Save Our Homes cap on your piece of property and you sold it to someone else, their property value is now being reestablished at whatever it was that they paid less their closing cost, less their exemptions to get to their taxable value.
‸ any type of moving in properties. So this is a list of the exemptions that are allowed by state law And you can see there's a lot of different exemptions and that's why

As I said, that is for the purpose of doing the public safety increases. But will that pay for all of it? Unfortunately, it will not pay for all of it. One thing that I would like to note on this slide, for the police department and dispatch, I had new men's up there and even for the fire department, that is still subject to negotiation with the unions and those numbers are not exact. That's numbers that we had at a point in time. So even the impact, the salary impact, is subject to change a little bit. It does need to be agreed upon by the members of each of the unions. And I failed under the PBA.

of that would be going to police and fire salaries. And then in addition, because we did have a nice healthy increase in property values, I'll show you in just a minute, we have large capital needs. And traditionally, we've been funding those capital needs through the use of fund balance, which is budgetary savings from year to year. Because of that nice increase in the revenue, we're able to start doing a shift and fund some of our capital needs with recurring revenue, which is a really important thing to do because you should not be borrowing to be able to buy what your needs are. In addition to, we've been having to minimize what those capital, what we fund for capital needs each fiscal year. So next, I'll show you the tentative proposed budget. For general fund, we show you all the funding sources presented by the most significant to the lowest that shows you the total budget is $50.2 million for general fund. If you'll note at the top of the slide there,
39% of your revenue from general fund is funded from what we call non-revenue or other financing sources, which is your inner fund transfers. It shows that the general fund is still very heavily dependent on your utility fund for transfers there.

sword. You know, it's a good thing that we have Jack and the fine work that he does over in water utilities. ‸ And yet you can see that it makes up a significant portion of your general fund revenue sources.
So, taking a look at, oh, ‸ excuse me, comparing our capital that we funded last year versus this year. And if you'll keep in mind, last year in fiscal year 22, we received $3.8 million
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 02:57:20–02:57:22 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
which was things that were deferred. So last year in fiscal year 23, we only had to dip into fund balance, $888,000. This year, we're dipping into fund balance, $1.6 million.

And then the recurring revenue that I just spoke to a few minutes ago, we're funding $929,000 of capital with the recurring revenue. And obviously, as we have talked in other budget workshops, other costs are increasing. So that's what's eating up the rest of your recurring revenue.
has a really two, two, two big priorities there. And it's, it's a, it's obviously the initiative of the, of the special pay and retention initiative for public safety. And then this initiative, which is ‸ actually to, to obviously meet some of our needs. We're doing that through a spin down of fund balance meet some of our critical capital needs. And you'll see the, the listing there. They're all significant items. They're either, they're mainly police and fire items, mainly police on here. And the other part of this initiative is to actually, to, as
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 02:59:02–02:59:02 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
Bowman said, Mrs. Bowman said, to actually start funding some of your capital ‸ needs out of recurring revenue. That's, That's a structurally sound budget to actually be able to fund capital, not out of generated or hope for savings each year, but to have it as a part of your, uh, recurring revenue base. And so you can see that we, we put an effort on doing that for the upcoming fiscal ‸ year. Um, police vehicles, police radios, uh, fire brush truck, fire radios, um, on the listing there.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings; a language review questioned the wording · 02:59:57–03:00:02 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
fire radios, that we, as we've discussed ‸ previously, um, they need to become P25 compliant and the county is pushing for all agencies to be compliant by sometime next year. So that's making a nice dent in it, But at the cost that we have right now, we know right away that we're going to have to spend about $600,000 next year just for radio replacements.
needs. So then we have other things that are funded by a one-time purchases that are funded in different ways and sometimes we have to dip into fund balance, um, still following the fund balance policy, that it's a one-time purchase.
police radios, um, as a one-time purchase with fund balance, but then using recurring revenue for doing some other, um, one-time things. And so the distinction being, um, a capital purchase, you're buying it once and hopefully you don't have to buy it for a long, long time versus, um, like for example, you might have an operating expense like replacing all the carpet in City hall. Again, you're going to replace it one time and then won't replace it for many, many years as opposed to paying for salaries with your fund balance.

Obviously, the, um, primary category is the charges for services, which is for the water and sewer services. Um, again, they're taking some money from their unassigned, what we refer to as unassigned fund balance, but it's really their reserves.

for their capital projects. Um, and then some miscellaneous, um, interest income. And then in the stormwater fund, uh, same thing, except for they're funded through a special assessment because we don't want to include that on the utility bill any longer. Uh, they'll get about $2.2 million

Um, general fund is showing, um, a big increase. Um, some of that's due to transfers and other things. Water and sewer, as we've discussed in the budget workshops, their chemical prices and a lot of their supplies have gone up. So theirs is about a $2.9 million
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 03:03:12–03:03:13 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
And then some of those other numbers like the renewal and replacement shows a reduction. That's all dependent upon the water and sewer utility funds capital projects.

2023-078 establishing the rollback rate to approve the proposed millage rate of 6.9532 mills to set the first public hearing to be September 12, 2023 at 6 p.m.

Hall and the city council chambers. As a reminder to city council, once the proposed millage rate is approved at this meeting, the millage rate may be reduced or increased at a subsequent trim hearing. However, if you increase the rate, then we have to go back and re-advertise all liver again and do separate hearings. So that would be a whole big process that would be, um, a little costly because the property appraiser would have to mail out new notices as well. Um, however, you could reduce it when we come back to you in September. requesting approval of the tentative millage rate.
I stated, the first public hearing establishing the tentative millage rate and budget will be on September 12th at 6 p.m., followed by, uh, ‸ final adoption of the millage rate and budget on September 26th as well as at 6 p.m.
the, um, counties and, and the school board. And so that's demonstrating that we're not holding our hearings on the same date as them in accordance with trim.

the union issues. They would need to ratify it with a ratification vote. Um, each union has different process for that, um, with the fire department, usually because of their multiple shifts,
then in terms of an advertising to, to potential employees, I mean, I think we'd have to get somewhat creative, but, but again, in the proposed budget, um, if if the, if all of these actions pass tonight there,

ranges and amounts there. And so again, all of that's going to come together, I'm sure. But, but again, if we want to, if we want to jump out there and be proactive there, again, in the proposed budget, there are these things. And again, it's somewhat a long winded advertisement, but you don't need,
um, with other municipalities as well as the county. So any, any possible step we can take to jump out there and get ahead of the game. I'm all for it.
So to state it in another way, what we're requesting is the approval of that millage rate increase so that we can go back and work out all the salary information with the unions.

reserves, or liquidity. And then we need to, you know, purchase those one time items. All of that comes, comes out of what's left over. This year is a couple million and closer to 3 million. But this represents, and
but the shift that's taking place, what are we going to be doing with the money that's left over at the end of the year? That is going to be going to more capital projects?

Um, go, go, go back one. And so the tax revenue, uh, the, the property tax revenue, um, based on that 16% increase in taxable value and the 0.5 mil increase goes up 25%. So that's that chart there.
budget information. And so what, what you, what you keep going. What you need the, um, the, um, you can go back to that. Go back. Yeah. Stay there. So what you need to,
to, um, fund the capital, uh, honestly, the way we presented it to actually, uh, make a structural fix to, uh, the city's budget where, um, a significant amount of capital is coming from recurring revenues.
to do the pay, the capital property tax, um, property insurance increases, health insurance increases. And so some of those things that we've not listed here tonight, um, some of those inflationary increases that are associated with, uh, any city budget there. And so we'll list those out at the workshop for you. But to do all of those things,
salary increases, uh, to fund capital, to fund the inflationary increases, like the health insurance, like the property insurance and whatever else Rebecca has, you need both current millage rate, uh, the 0.5. Um,
And so if you, if you want to do the salary increases for police and fire and not do the capital, yes, you, you could actually reduce the military. Right. But again, if you go to the capital, um, Rebecca, most of the capital is associated with public safety, police and fire and public, uh, works. And so, um, again, I think it's very responsible. It is, uh, catching up on some of our capital needs.
fire trucks, uh, police and fire radios, um, the street paving, uh, capital, um, um, um, public works replacement vehicles, um, go to that next one time. Again, radios, um, radios on both side, both police and fire, uh, some, some long overdue capital improvements to the police, uh, station.
this budget is to fund the special pay for police and fire and to appropriately fund, um, necessary, um, capital and capital that has been deferred for over a period of time.

Okay. Any other questions? Say none. Chair, I'd like to close this portion from council, bring it to the public. Steve Murphy, come forward. State your name.
Steve Murphy, [address], Cocoa, Florida. I'll be short and sweet. A 19.3% increase is higher than almost all of your citizens are going to receive. For them to pay those additional amounts of money is too much. The, the millage rate should stay as it currently is, not the rollback, but as it currently is, and that would, should provide you enough funding to deal with. That's the way the rest of us in the real world have to deal with. I do have one question.

isn't gonna, you know, ‸ five minutes back. I just said it is not a 19% tax increase to individuals. But again, um, I think you know that that's, that's either a revenue increase or a taxable value increase, but not a tax increase to individuals.

So it affects me directly too, as well, because I'm residential backslash commercial. So I get a double whammy. So don't feel like the Lone Ranger. And I'm voting, uh, also for myself.

Okay. I just think that we have to, somebody at the budget workshop, one of the directors said something really wise, said, you know, we have to really focus on our operation, but it's important that we invest in our people. And I agree with that. That's, we really do need to invest in our people. That's why I want to make sure that we get, that we get these salary increases so we can maintain the integrity of our police and fire department.
looking out for our citizens who happen to be some of the poorest in the county who have average salaries so much lower than even our own employee salaries.
I'm not convinced. And I know, ‸ you know, this is the first time, this structural fix, that makes sense. Is this the right year to do it? A structural fix? Now the last time we did this, we had, okay, we had a, we ended up with a, we had a windfall the year before we ended up with like 8 million plus ARPA money, but also after we did the tax increase, the half mil tax increase that following January, we came into three quarters of a million dollars, the first meeting from a capital fund that ended up going into the general fund that would really have, I mean, that was more than the half mil increase. I'm just saying that a structural fix, that makes sense to me. When does that take place? That's my question. The salaries definitely have to happen. But I really, I'm just not convinced that this is the right year for the millage increase.

Yeah, it's just... um what Why reduce the size of the apartments? Is that a design? Did it come down to... Because all your other models are at that larger size?

uh And I think uh some people have talked about it. When you reduce the size of the unit a little bit, it allows for some reduced rents. Units have gotten too large in the industry and they become unaffordable. So it just helps us provide a more affordable unit just by reducing that size slightly. And that's the reason for it. We're considering this affordable workforce housing. So you don't need as large of a unit for that.

in um neighborhoods of uh and communities of need. We know we have a need uh that's been verified by uh Dr. dokes that's been verified by um by Principal Cole. And so we have a need. um And so they've agreed to enter into this non-binding memorandum of understanding to ‸ actually continue the process of exploring whether or not uh it's a fit, whether or not they want to put dollars in the community to build a Montessori uh school. In addition toto the Bezos Foundation, we have some local partners that have stepped up and said, hey, we we think that we can partner ‸ on in a facility to provide health care services. And as you know, part of the plan for the um for the Diamond Square Redevelopment Agency includes education and health care services. And so
And we have the Space Coast Health Foundation that are at the table willing to be partners with us. And I thought it appropriate because it's going into the Diamond Square community that they that the agency be partners. Again, this is a non-binding commitment. No one's committing to uh any sort of funds, any sort of uh finances. Just simply saying we're going to continue those discussions to ‸ see uh how it all shakes out.

not only do those things, but to to show the state that we have a community with partners that are serious about health care services and and um and academic services to where we can get that state appropriation.

And so we think that we show people that we're serious about the partnerships and about bringing this to fruition um
But again, this doesn't require anybody to commit to any funding, doesn't even say how we're actually going to operate or who will operate, who will put dollars up front,

has been working with a number of organizations to create a service that is uh that's going to be attached to their calls. And so I wanted the chief to to go over that uh because I think that that's going to be yeah value added to the community.
And so basically, so the next step we're doing, that so we they've done some presentations with us. uh The next step is they're going to do some ride-alongs with the officers so the officers can
with them and what they can do as far as uh serving our community. And then we're going to do a training, and at that point, uh we'll have that MOU and we'll get it rock and roll. So it's similar to what um the
is doing. um So we have an individual in crisis and needs and things of that nature. We can call them, especially like in a mental health type issue, we can call them out to come out. instead So instead of the police getting involved, we can have them involved. So they'll do ‸ from the start to the finish to make sure that person has all the needs that they need for themselves to be a more productive citizen. In addition to that, they also offer services to the family as well. Because, you know, anytime you have somebody suffering from some type of mental illness, um you take them away, the family still have issues. And so it's it's a force force multiplier for us so ‸ we won't continue to get those repeat calls at those particular locations. So we've got a lot of things going on in our community that's really helping not only just our homeless but other families in our in our community. Wonderful.
and we're being proactive here. uh ‸ In reference of having a social worker there and various organizations there right along with the police department.
officers go to that no one has actually violated the law, but they still need the police. So it's not a police function. It's a social services or someone that can actually office offer services. So we should see a decline, which they've seen the same success in Melbourne, of those repeat calls where it's not necessarily a police problem. Thank you, sir. So we're looking forward to working with MRT. So
