council members Commissioners rather I'm sorry   I was on the pwn Town Council so uh I used to 
be the mayor so it's kind of comforting to be   here again but uh we started in 1979 this is the 
conin Conklin Davis Center today but we started as   the Conklin center for the multiply handicap blind 
which we don't use that term anymore but it is a   unique place in the United States actually not 
just Florida but the whole United States so we   serve people who are not only blind but have 
additional disabilities including things like   cerebal palsy autism spectrum uh delayed learning 
of course we deal with some deafness but we're   unique in the other types of disabilities 
that we work with so we just wanted to give   you a little bit of an idea of who we are and 
what we do because we do affect the uh Volusia   County area of Volusia Flagler grav and putam so 
you know obviously we serve the entire County of   Volusia and these are some of the programs that we 
offer and I'm going to let our CEO Ronnie Ronnie take I always have to lower microphon wherever 
I go thank you for inviting us here today um my   name is Ronnie David I've been at the center 
for 32 years and um some of the photos you   see here um are talking about our services and 
this one right here is a job simulation like   like a workshop type and we have um a partnership 
with Metro Electronics in Daytona Beach and they   Supply uh parts to our our job simulation area 
it's kind of like a little mini Manufacturing   that the students do and we pay them a wage but 
we uh use it as as an assessment process where   we assess their work related skills while 
they're in the program and um during that   period of time so they learn how to work and 
how to get to work on time and how to budget   their money um so we have really the the um 
residential program that we uh took over in   2021 is as Nancy was saying a very unique program 
there's nothing like it in the United States and   the campus that we're located on um in Daytona 
Beach is quite unique as well uh what you see on   the screen right now we have local artists that 
work with us from the Daytona uh Art League and   our building is filled with paintings it looks 
it's really beautiful it looks like a gallery   as you can see here's a picture of our lobby 
with the paintings the paintings are all all   all the hallways in the building it's it's really 
beautiful these are some of our supporters and   partners and uh we just uh are about to start a 
new program with our students where we received   a grant to create an art program for visually 
impaired people and our artists are working   with us on developing that so we have some

have any cards just need a motion in a second   approval I think Mr bre would like to speak Mr 
Mayor he's welcome to yep Steven you want to   put something on the record good evening uh Steven 
Spraker planning director so during the subdivision   uh process for this um this project staff receiv 
received concerns about grading and storm water   for the subdivision the applicant and staff 
have worked with residents in the area one of   the result of discussion was the arrangement for 
gutters to be installed um on certain property   so there are certain properties located um here 
this lot here and this lot here so those actually   about existing single family houses so one of 
the agreements between uh the resident um lot   11 which is down here on Magnolia was a gutter 
system to be installed by the home builder what   we would ask the commission to do is to condition 
this plat to requires gutters on Lots 11 7 and   four and that would be constructed during the home 
construction we believe that will help with storm   water to ensure the waters coming off the building 
will go directly into the storm water system so   staff is recommending approval the planing board 
recommend approval the developer is willing to uh   accept that plat and construct The Gutter and 
the project engineer is here if there are any   questions thank you Stephen and that language is 
in the ordinance as far as the gutters go it needs   to be an amendment it is not in it so we'll 
Entertain Entertain an amendment commissioner   Tolland question so gutter on the structures on the 
structures for lot 11 7 and four and do is were   there any problems with like flooding um from like 
do we have to do added swailes or anything like   that from this property to the existing property I 
mean we certainly don't want to burden not burden   but flood you know existing homes so the storm 
water design was to ensure that all the water the   stays on the subdivision but there there is a gr 
difference right but the the design is to go into   the storm water ponds which you see here in the 
rectangles the gutters will will assist further so   we're we believe we're going above and beyond what 
the typical storm water system would go as the   project the project is still under construction as 
the project goes to to the Final close out there   will be a survey that shows that it is constructed 
part the approved plan the the engineer who   designed this will have to certify that it's 
designed per the plan perfect and we will continue   to watch it after acceptance there's a one-year 
Bond so if there are issues we will continue to   watch unfortunately there really hasn't been 
a heavy enough rain to to see exactly how it   will operate under a heavy storm great thank you 
Mr Mayor and if there's no other discussion I'll   move approval of uh item H uh with the amendment 
to require gutters on Lots 11 7 and four second   during construction the G okay so 
we'll vote on the amendment first   to 9h and uh we have a motion in a 
second for that yeah that's what he said Madam clerk if you would call the 
vote on the amendment commissioner Briley   yes commissioner Tolland yes commissioner Sargent 
yes commissioner Persis yes mayor Partington yes   and now uh if you would call the vote I don't

let you know that um sandbags are sand piles are   in place uh that anybody can help themselves 
at the uh Ormond Rec Center you bring your ID   and you can get 10 sandbags people often inquire 
why do we limited to 10 because those bags are   very heavy and if you put more than 10 in your 
car you're going to break the suspension in your   car so we don't want to be responsible for that um 
if a storm is named out there and uh we we are in   the cone of disaster we will staff that sand pile 
with uh public work staff and they do a great job   with that they'll help you they have plenty of 
shovels they'll help the folks fill it if you have   elderly neighbors that uh can't get out uh please 
have them call Public Works Shawn what's that number 386-676-3220 if they call that number and if 
they are shut in we will deliver those sandbags   to their house we don't install them but we will 
deliver them to their house and you know I will   tell you that our Public Works guys are so great 
that they probably will help you out to put them   where you need to but I can't guarantee that 
but they are so wonderful they do so much so um get you have to show your ID to get the bags 
uh last thing um I wanted to say that you have in   front of you tonight if you could lift up that jar 
that is EDC honey from the environmental Discovery   Center the bees that are inside the Environmental 
Discovery Center we have if you've ever been   there you can see the live Hive and that is um 
honey from those bees so uh we're really excited   about that and um I want to thank the commission 
for um uh the work they did on the police pension   plan that that was not something intentional that 
was something that was overlooked decades ago and   unfortunately it just came to light when officer 
Bakaysa passed and I want to thank the commission   and the community that's been so generous to 
the Bakaysa family and to continue to keep them   in their thoughts and prayers and I'm happy to 
answer any questions if you should have any for   me tonight thank you Joyce any questions for the 
city manager I have one yes sir why does just the   commission have the honey I'm a little concerned 
are you trying to get rid of us they didn't give   me any I would have loved to had honey but they 
didn't give me any so no that's okay um but no   isn't that exciting very ex I just saw the bees 
about three weeks ago or when we were at at the   environmental Discovery Center for um Susan's 
wonderful uh Citizen's Academy class and the   bees were so active and it was so exciting you 
could hear them buzzing about and flying in and   flying out it's just so exciting I just love the 
bees and the turtles over there so thank you very   much good night good stuff thank you assistant 
city manager Shawn Finley just want to thank   everyone for having me and wish everyone else a 
good night thank you Shawn City attorney Randy hayes nothing this evening just uh remind you that we've 
worked through all the details on uh resolving the   dispute between flagler County and Hunters Ridge 
so uh we plan to have that on your next agenda   it' be nice to close that out and put it behind 
us great thank you Randy and tonight we start   with commissioner Sargent thank you Mr Mayor um 
first I'd like to congratulate commissioner Briley   and Tolland on being reelected and I look forward 
to serving with y'all for another two years um I   I got a call today about the flashing light at 
Rockefeller on Beachside and it flashes uh it   goes red when someone's crossed then it flashes 
red and the sign says to um proceeds slowly when   it's flashing red it's very confusing people were 
stopping um I don't know if we can work with fdot   on that to maybe it can Flash yellow me flashing 
red seems a little mean stop that's a that what   what they've installed there is what is kind of 
The Next Step it's a a hybrid Beacon and so it's   a little bit different than the rfbs one of the 
one of the things we had heard previously about   the rfbs with the yellow and that was a little 
confusing to people what we can do is we can   find some information and and and try and share 
with people educate them how to use those hybrid   beacons um dot has a lot of good information and 
I will'll get Jen to to link our website to them   and and one of the one of the key groups we also 
want to key um reach out to are some of the hotels   and so we'll get to some of those people who are 
the the visitors to our area and make sure that   they know how to use them as well so but we can 
thank you for the for the the heads up and we'll   try and do our best to educate people on how to 
use them thank you um excuse me and then recently   there was a there's been several Facebook posts 
or on social media different places I've gotten   several phone calls over the last almost two 
weeks um where there was a poll taken asking   if they someone if people prefer tennis courts 
or condos on beach side where the current tennis   courts are at Rockefeller um the casement 
area and I just would like the residents to   know some facts about what's going on over there 
the tennants courts are currently leased out for   a three-year term and the city has the option 
to renew that for an additional three years the   property is not for sale at the June 15th 2023 
Leisure service Advisory board at that meeting   the following action occurred a motion was made 
by Doug Thomas to apply for an Echo grant for   the Ormond Beach Tennis Center to update the 
tennis courts um to LED lighting and to build   a small building for a pro shop with restrooms the 
motion passed unanimously and I think what's a key   fact here is that that is an Advisory Board to the 
commission um the commission never applied for the   Echo grants for the above items so I want to 
assure the residents in zone 2 and all of our   community that as long as I'm sitting here I would 
never entertain selling that property never um in   today's political climate with everything going on 
in recent events I would like to remind those that   are running for office to say focus and positive 
Run for the people and not against your opponent   thank you Mr Mayor thank you commissioner and uh 
commissioner Persis thank you mayor good evening   everyone um I just want to um congratulate Shawn 
Finley again I'm so excited for you Shawn that's   just you know just really nice seeing you 
s sitting up there so again congratulations   we're very happy and I also want I mentioned to 
Chief ba Bailey earlier but I had a friend that   had almost had a house fire and she called the 
fire station called it was station 92 and they   were there within minutes and helped her and um 
even helped pull the dryer that almost caught   her whole house on fire pulled it out to the road 
to get it out of the house because it was giving   off smoke and fumes Etc but they went above and 
beyond to help and I just know that's that's the   kind of quality of firemen we have the kind of 
quality police officers we have and our First   Responders that's just one example so I just 
wanted to commend you for that so please share   my uh best wishes and how proud I am of all of 
you them it was awesome and um I also just want   to thank uh Chris Byle and Kelly Maguire for all your 
work I'm not sure where they are if they're still   here but gosh working on that budget is got to 
be so difficult it it's got to take weeks and   weeks to get everything straight but they just do 
a fabulous job and make it easy for us to um you   know come up with uh our recommendations so thank 
you both for that and I just want to say um it   seemed like a long time ago but the Fourth of July

it was interesting the conklin Davis uh conklin Davis   Center folks who were here and speaking of Metro 
Electronics of course that's our own Bill Jones   that has Metro Electronics and helping out in the

Ormond Beach so I'm excited about that um when you   were talking uh commissioner Persis I did have uh 
something I'd like to share about our firefighters   and my personal experience just a few weeks ago 
while I was at church at Prince of Peace we had   a um parishioner pass out in and um this is 
the second time it's happened to me in church   and um called 911 at this time I actually knew 
the address because last time I didn't and the   crossroad Division Street they were there with the 
um with the county within minutes they handled the   situation beautifully you know this was right 
in if you guys ever know anything about Mass   it was right in the middle of the consecration 
when it's very quiet and and everybody's heads   down and praying and the whole thing and they 
handled the whole situation very professional and   very well and I um just want to thank our um fire 
department they awesome um Fourth of July was fun   was hot as the Dickens um had a few grandchildren 
there and they thought that was the best thing in   the whole wide world was to push that plunger 
and see those fireworks go off they actually   thought they they did that so it was kind of fun 
to see great celebration congratulations to um   Leisure Services for always putting on a a great 
a great event um thank my um fellow Commissioners   for some great discussion on the budget um I'm 
always very proud to be a part of this group we   we we come at different angles not always sure 
how the discussion's going to go or where we're   going to be but I think we have a lot of respect 
for each other we have respect for staff and for   all the department heads and all the hard work 
that they do and um I just love the the the good   discussion and the resolutions that we come up 
with so I'm just very proud to be part of this   this group and I'm also very proud to be serving 
again for another two years with Harold and Travis   and maybe you never know others you know and 
so I'm just excited to um to keep continue to   serve the city um as far as that Beacon goes with 
fot I did the walk um with fdot that day and I do   remember that being a question because it was very 
confusing and the fdot response to us at the time   was that it is a learning curve and they really 
did want to put out that information but this   is those lights that blink for that Beacon is a 
standard that they're using everywhere and it's   just something new to us so we do have to have 
an education and piece and maybe Jen can even   be part of that education piece for us um let's 
see and the last thing I I want to end with is um is I just want to send out some condolences 
to one of our um um constituents Fred Hayne on   the on the passing of his wife this week he's he 
has served the on boards and he's always here at   meetings and he's got a beautiful heart and 
I just want all of us to kind of keep him and   his family and our prayers so with that I'll say 
good night thank you commissioner and uh yeah a   few few condolences going out I know Dr car's wife 
passed on the 12th I believe it was beautiful lady   uh kind smart and uh just a beautiful family 
and just so sad for them um Gary Connor's uh   somewhat unexpectedly so so sad and difficult 
for the family when it's so sudden sudden like   that um really is a shock but if you can keep 
those folks I think it's great for you to ask   to keep them in your thoughts and prayers during 
this difficult time so thank you thank you for   doing that congratulations Commissioners on your 
re-elections that's really is an awesome awesome   vote of Confidence from your constituents and uh 
you should feel feel good about that and the fact   that you uh don't have to worry about everything 
involved in campaigning because because it is a   lot as you know and so to be given that gift 
by your constituents a vote of confidence and   a vote of extra time is a wonderful wonderful 
thing and well deserved uh Main Street I love   what you do for our community uh you know Nancy 
is incredible well-deserved recognition for her   taies is an amazing artist and I love her story 
about how she came to came to and fell in love   with Ormond Beach has she told you that story yep 
her car was packed basically with everything that   she owned in the world she drove over the Granada 
bridge and saw all the green and the downtown and   just fell in love and stayed I think she had been 
driving up the coast I can't remember if it was   from the keys or where but get her to tell you the 
story it's really uh wonderful story and then uh   Becky your work there has been amazing with all 
the volunteers that that you bring in what you do   for the community and I know commissioner Tolland is 
it now serving on that board you see it firsthand   I hear about it uh various ways but and then also 
want to give a shout out to the arts district   which uh Julia thank you for returning my book 
which I love the economic power of public art the   art that's in here is just incredible some of it a 
city of our size would never do but some of these   things we would we would and could do anybody that 
wants to borrow it is welcome to look at it I'm   going to keep it as a coffee table book but Julia 
when you were up here speaking if you could have   seen the smiles and admiration of the people in 
the audience who were looking at you and listening   to you you would have felt wonderful and I thought 
that's a testament to the amazing work you did   when you were at Main Street and the amazing work 
that you're continuing to do so thank you thank   you for that and commission you covered everything 
else and with that at 8:00 we are adjourned
