BUT IT I.  >> THESE 2 PROJECTS HAVE BEEN  IN THE WORKS SINCE 2016 AND  THEN 2019 THEY'RE BROKEN INTO  2 SEGMENTS THERE ON THE ACCESS  OF TAMIAMI TRAIL NORTH SO ONE  IS THE OLDEST OF 2 PROJECTS.  MOST OF THE PROJECTS HAVE BEEN  COMPLETELY DESIGNED AND IN THE  BACK COUNTRY SAYS THE DESIGN  PLANS FOR THE PROJECT. THESE  PROJECTS HAVE IN. NOT FULLY  FUNDED. IT WAS SOMEONE PUT IN  AND THEN COVID HIT MONEY HAD  TO GET REALLOCATED. A FEW  CITIZENS BUSINESSES ALONG THE  ACCESS ROADS REACH OUT TO ME  AND SAY HEY WE'VE GOT A REALLY  REALLY BIG PROBLEM WITH THE  PARKING. AND THEY'RE WONDERING  WHAT THE CITY IS GOING TO  POSSIBLY DO OR ASSIST THEM  WITH TO ALLEVIATE THOSE  PARKING CONCERNS. JUST FOR  EVERYBODY'S. INFORMATION THE  PARKING THAT WAS DONE RIGHT  THERE BY THE LIBRARY THAT'S ON  THE CITY'S RIGHT AWAY WAS NOT  THE CITY PROJECT THAT WAS A  COUNTY PROJECT THAT THE CITY  GRANTED THEM EASEMENT OR SO  THE CITY DID NOT TO EXPEND ANY  FUNDS FOR THAT WE JUST SAID  YES YOU CAN PUT THE PUCK IN  THERE. SO IT THIS TIME. THE  THE BUSINESSES ARE WONDERING.  HOW WE ARE GOING TO PROCEED  WITH THE PROJECT PLANS. THERE  IS MONEY IN SURTAX FOR BUT  IT'S NOT UNTIL 2030 5 2039, SO  THE LAST 3RD OF THAT SURTAX  FUNDING. AND IT DOESN'T FULLY.  COVER ALL OF THE COSTS. SO  BACK IN THE COMMISSION HAD A  DISCUSSION ABOUT. POSSIBLY  FIGURING OUT SOME REALLY  INGENIOUS WAYS OF PAYING FOR  THIS PARTY. AND ONE OF THE  THINGS THAT WAS BE IT A VERY  SHORT DISCUSSION WAS POSSIBLY  SEEN IF THE BUSINESSES WERE  AMENABLE TO HELPING WITH THE  COSTS POSSIBLY HAVING  ASSESSMENT ON THEIR PROPERTIES  BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO GET  THE BENEFIT WOULD ONLY BE TO  THOSE BUSINESSES. THEY ARE  GETTING THE BENEFIT BECAUSE  CUSTOMERS WOULD MORE LIKELY.  PATRONIZE THOSE BUSINESSES  BECAUSE PARKING IS A LOT  EASIER AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO  FIGHT WITH THE PARKING.  AND I JUST WANTED TO SEE. WHAT  THE COMMISSION THINKS YOU KNOW  DO WE WANT TO JUMP START IT DO  WE WANT TO PROCEED. DO WE WANT  TO JUST WAIT FOR SURTAX ONE OF  THE THINGS THAT IS ALSO IN THE  BACKUP MATERIALS IS THE  LEGISLATIVE TEXT FROM THE ROAD  AND DRAINAGE MEETING FROM JULY  28TH. AND IT KIND OUTLINE SOME  OF THE PROCESS IS IF THE  COMMISSION WANTS TO START A  CONVERSATION WITH THESE  BUSINESSES AND SEND A LETTER  OUT SAYING HEY WOULD YOU BE  AMENABLE TO ADDING THAT  ASSESSMENT. SO WE WOULD  PROBABLY HAVE TO LEGAL  INVOLVED TO SEE HOW THAT ALL  LOOKS BEFORE WE DO ANY OF THAT  I WANTED TO BRING IT TO YOU  AND I DO HAVE SOME MEMBERS OF  THE MOVES THAT ARE HERE AND  I'M SORRY SIR. I DO. GENTLEMAN  IN THE PURPLE SHIRT ARE YOU  WITH THE MOST ALSO OK THANK  SO. TAKING ANYBODY HAS ANY  QUESTIONS IDEAS SUGGESTIONS ON  HOW WE CAN GET THIS  JUMP-STARTED OR IS THIS  SOMETHING WE'RE GOING TO JUST  HAVE TO WAIT FOR SURE TAX.  >> ALL COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  THANK YOU MAYOR JUST A COUPLE  OF QUICK THINGS ONE. I'M I'M  VERY PLEASED THAT THE  BUSINESSES.  >> CAME FORWARD AND SAID THEY  WOULD BE AMENABLE TO HELPING  PAY FOR THAT BECAUSE THEY LET  BE CLEAR THEY HAVE NOT WEIGHED  IN ON THEY SAID DON'T KNOW WE  WOULD HAVE TO FIND OUT IF THEY  WOULD BE AMENABLE TO I DIDN'T  GET A FLAT OUT OR NO FROM THE  FEW THAT I DID SPEAK PUT. NO  THEY THERE'S A PROCESS TO GET.  >> NO YES FROM THOSE  BUSINESSES YES TO BE CLEAR I  MISUNDERSTOOD YOU. LET ME  REPHRASE THAT I THINK IT'S  APPROPRIATE THAT THE  BUSINESSES IN THAT AREA HELP  FUND THE PARKING. AND I FOR  ONE WOULD LIKE TO SEE STEPH.  FIGURE THAT OUT AND BRING IT  BACK DURING BUDGET TIME.  >> BECAUSE AT THAT TIME  PERHAPS WE CAN EITHER TAKE  THAT ALLOCATION OFF THE  WORLD'S ARE REDUCED.  >> ALLOCATION THAT'S THERE AND  PERHAPS PUT IT IN. I'M NOT  COMFORTABLE WAITING TILL 35, I  MEAN THAT'S JUST YES SOMETHING  NEEDS TO BE DONE IN THAT AREA  WAY BEFORE THEM SO. THAT'S  WHAT I'M THINKING OF LIKE  STAFF AND BRING IT BACK DURING  BUDGET CONVERSATIONS.  >> HOW MUCH MONEY ARE WE  TALKING ABOUT ACTUALLY  COMPLETE TO NORTH AND SOUTH  SIDE. WE KNOW THAT NUMBER.  >> THE NUMBERS THAT TALKED  ABOUT WERE SO LONG AGO THAT I  WOULD NEED BE COMFORTABLE  SAYING WHAT THAT PRICE TAG  READ THAT BEEN UNDER MILLION  BUT.  >> CAN'T RECALL REMEMBER SEE  THINK IT WAS CIP SHE ANYBODY  KNOW.  >> WELL THIS SURTAX HAS  $925,000 FOR 2035 TO 2039, BUT  IT DOES SAY THAT SHORT ONE 0.4  MILLION DOLLARS. SO IT'S AN  EXCESS OF 2 MILLION DOLLARS.  BUT THAT'S ALSO. YEARS  CONSTRUCTION WELL OVER 3 YEARS  OLD. WE ALL KNOW WHAT HAPPENED  IN THE PAST 3 YEARS WITH  CONSTRUCTION COSTS.  >> TAKE I MEAN JUST DEFINITELY  IN THERE'S NO DOUBT THERE'S A  NEED. COURSE ALL OVER THE  PLACE US SOCIALLY WITH ANNE  MARIE OPEN UP AND SOME OF THE  OTHER THINGS THAT ARE  HAPPENING ON BOTH SIDES 41  THERE. IT'S THAT'S NOT GOING  TO GET BETTER IT'S GOING TO  GET WORST. REALLY DON'T KNOW  WHAT TO MAKE OF THE IDEA OF.  FINANCIAL COLLABORATION. I  DON'T KNOW THAT. WE'VE IT  BEFORE AND I MEAN ON THE ONE  SIDE, THE CITY STANDPOINT  THAT'S WONDERFUL AND HELPS  BRIDGE THE GAP AND HELPS MOVE  THIS PROJECT ON THE OTHER  SIDE. IT'S LIKE BUSINESSES PAY  THEIR TAXES AS AS TOO. YOU  KNOW THE OWNERS OF THESE  BUSINESSES LIVE IN THE CITY  AND. NOW THEY WOULD BE ASKED  TO HELP PAY FOR THE WORKING ON  CITY PROPERTY. AND SO I DON'T  KNOW ABOUT THAT ONE.  SCRATCHING MY HEAD A LITTLE  BUT.  >> IT IS IT IS A BUDGET UP  WITH THE SHOULD NOT BE KICKED  DOWN THE ROAD. I MEAN IPAD THE  SAME. BUSINESSES COME TO ME  OVER THIS PAST YEAR SINCE I  GOT HAD NUMEROUS  CONVERSATIONS, SOME OF THESE  GENTLEMEN AS WELL AS OTHER  BUSINESS SOMETHING THIS  PROJECT WE NEED TO FIND A WAY  TO GET. WITHOUT HAVING TO WAIT  5 MORE YEARS OR 10 YEARS IT  REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE AND  THESE ARE SOME GREAT SOLID  BUSINESS THAT'S WHERE IT  SHOULD AND MORE REALLY.  SUPPORTERS OF CITY SO I DON'T  KNOW WHAT TO MAKE OF IT NO ONE  WHAT IT REALLY IS GOING TO  COST TO DO IT AND AND TO LOOK  AT WHETHER OR THERE'S MONEY IN  THIS BUDGET TO DO IT. I MEAN  IT'S MORE BUDGET ITEM BUT YOU  KNOW WE GET INTO THE BUDGET  THEN. THERE'S A MILLION OTHER  THINGS AND IT JUST KEEPS  GETTING KICKED TO THE CURB  THAT'S THE PROBLEM IF WE ARE  GOING TO MAKE IT A PRIORITY WE  SHOULD MAKE IT A PRIORITY I'D  LIKE TO MAKE IT A PRIORITY. SO  I DON'T KNOW I DON'T HAVE ANY  LANCERS TO ORBIT YOU KNOW COME  BUDGET TIME MY TASTE WOULD BE  LET'S FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE  THIS HAPPEN AND NOT JUST KEEP  KICKING IT DOWN THE ROAD  BECAUSE IT'S SO NEEDED AIR IT  REALLY IS.  >> YES, I KNOW THAT'S  NECESSARY. THEY'RE LIKE THE  IDEA OF ASSESSMENTS AND HAVING  THIS COMING BACK AND DURING  THE BUDGET PROCESS. MORE  INFORMATION ON THE NUMBERS  SUCH AS WHAT WHAT THOSE  ASSESSMENTS LOOK LIKE WHAT  WOULD THEY BE BASED ON. I HAVE  TO DIE, I'M NOT REALLY A BIG  FAN OF SHUFFLING SURTAX MONEY  FOR WE HAVE BIG AG. PROJECTS  IN THE WORKS AND. I KNOW THAT  THAT THIS IS ME THIS, BUT WAS  TO BE PAID WITH ASSESSMENTS  THAT WOULD BE. GOOD THAT THIS  WOULD COME BACK AT THE  COMEBACK MORE INFORMATION. I  REMEMBER COMMISSIONER DOLLAR  MEMBERS THIS ONE WASN'T WHAT  WAS COLLEGE THAT USED TO BE  AND THAT BUILDING ON AN  AMERICAN WITH COLUMN WAS  THERE.  >> BECAUSE I NOTICED THAT HE  CHIPPED IN SOME OF THAT  HARKING THAT IS ON THE NORTH  SIDE OF TIME. AND THE TRIAL  THERE.  >> DOESN'T REALLY I KNOW IT  DOESN'T EVEN SHOW UP IN THE  HIRE AT'S HOW  THINGS HAVE CHANGED I KNOW IF  THAT WAS A TOTAL LOSS AND  THAT'S WHAT THE CITY CHIPPED  IN FOR THAT, BUT I'D LIKE FOR  THIS TO COME BACK WITH SOME  REAL HARD NUMBERS WHAT THIS  WOULD LOOK LIKE HOW THE  BUSINESSES WOULD HELP TOO.  >> TO FIND AND THEN WE CAN  TAKE IT FROM THERE BECAUSE  RIGHT NOW THERE'S A LOT OF  UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.  COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  >> YEAH MAYOR THANK YOU I SAY  THE COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL ALSO  HAS HER LIGHT ON I WAS GOING  OFFER TO MAKE A MOTION BUT IT  IF, YEAH LIKE TO GO AHEAD I  WILL BE HAPPY TO MAKE A  MOTION. THANK YOU FOR THAT  COMMISSIONER  >> YOU KNOW I'M NOT IN FAVOR  OF THE TAX PAYERS PUTTING THIS  A 100%. WE HAVE WE HAVE TO  MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS A.  BENEFITS ALL OF THE CITIZENS  FOR AND I DO SAY THERE'S A  BENEFIT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME  THE GREATER BENEFIT IS  ACTUALLY TO THE BUSINESSES  BECAUSE THEY THINK IT THE  PATRONS WHICH ARE THE CITIZENS  AND VISITORS THAT COME THERE  AND I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THAT  THEIR BUSINESSES ARE ROLLING.  WHICH IS A VERY GOOD THING.  BUT I ALSO RECOGNIZE OTHER  BUSINESSES THAT THEY SEEK  LARGER. STUDENT AND THAT CAN  BE VERY COSTLY TOO. YOU KNOW,  THIS IS A VERY. BIG CONCERN OF  MINE BECAUSE PARKING IN THE  RIGHT AWAY IS CHIPPING AWAY  OUR DRAINAGE SYSTEM. YOU DON'T  HAVE TO GO ANY FURTHER THAN  ALBERTO'S AND YOU SEE THIS  THIS DID IT AND I DON'T KNOW  HOW BIG IT IS BUT BOY OH BOY  FROM THE ROAD LOOKS LIKE  CRATER. I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE  DRIVING MY CAR OVER THAT UNDER  THAT. SO I WOULD REALLY LIKE  TO SEE IF WE CAN YOU GET STAFF  TO FIND OUT WHAT ACTUAL  CONSTRUCTION USING TODAY'S  BECAUSE IF WE DON'T HAVE THAT  ANSWER WE REALLY CAN'T ALSO TO  FIND OUT AND START THE PROCESS  OF ASKING AREA BUSINESSES IF  THEY WOULD BE AMENABLE DOING  SOME TYPE ASSESSMENT.  SHOULDN'T BE A 100% ON THE  BACKS OF THE BUSINESSES. I  DON'T KNOW SHOULDN'T BE SPLIT  FIFTY-FIFTY I DON'T KNOW IS A  25 CITY 75 THEM. I DON'T KNOW  THOSE ARE QUESTIONS THAT WE'RE  GOING TO HAVE TO REALLY DRILL  DOWN TO ONCE WE FIND OUT THEIR  APPETITE TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF  INNOCENCE. RIGHT SO WHEN THIS  COMES BACK WE'LL TALKING ABOUT  OPTIONS SUCH AS PAID PARKING,  YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DO IT.  TRUCK COUNTY TARGETS FOR  BEACHES. YEAH, THOSE LITTLE  PACE THAT WOULD THAT BE  SOMETHING THAT THAT MASSIVE  WHOLE NEW SET OF PROBLEMS BUT  IF YOU LOOK AT THE 2020.  >> LEGISLATIVE TEXT. THERE WAS  ALSO A POSSIBILITY OF STAFF  KIND OF THERE. THEIR  EXPERIENCE TOGETHER AND COMING  UP WITH MAYBE OTHER ACTIONS BY  NOT DISCUSSING A THERE MIGHT  BE OTHER OPTIONS OUT THERE  THAT PAY FOR PARKING.  >> DON'T NOW MAKES 3 DIFFERENT  MOTION THAT WE HAVE PUBLIC EYE  THAT. DO WE HAVE THAT THERE IS  NOT ASSUMED SOMEBODY WAS GOING  ALL TAKE IT AWAY MISTER OK SO  THE FIRST MOTION I'LL MAKE IS  TO HAVE THE CITY MANAGER WORK  STAFF. TO COME BACK WITH  ESTIMATE TO CONSTRUCT BOTH.  NORTH AND SOUTH BUT SEPARATED  OUT, SO WE KNOW HOW MUCH MORE  GOING COST AND HOW MUCH  SOUTHWEST AND COST.  >> YOU KNOW YOU ALL RIGHT. WE  HAVE A MOTION MADE BY  COMMISSIONER  >> GOING TO BE THAT BACK FOR.  >> TO DIRECT THE CITY MANAGER  TO WORK WITH STAFF TO COME  BACK WITH ESTIMATE TO  CONSTRUCT BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH  THAT SEPARATE COSTS.  >> THANK YOU AND THAT WAS  SECONDED BY VICE MAYOR SOAPS  SO IF THERE'S NOTHING OUT THAT  MOTION LET GO. THE MOTION  NUMBER ONE PASSES 4 TO 0. OKAY  SO MOTION NUMBER 2.  >> IS TO. THE CITY MANAGER AND  STAFF. TATE THAT CONVERSATION.  WITH THE AREA BUSINESSES. FOR  OFF-STREET  >> ASSESSMENTS. TO THEIR  BUSINESS. OKAY, JUST MAKE SURE  IT'S CLEAR.  >> WE HAVE A MOTION BY  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL FOR  STAFF AND CITY MANAGER TO WORK  WITH AREA BUSINESSES REGARDING  THE ASSESSMENT. POSSIBILITY I  HAVE A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER  LANGDON.  >> ANYTHING I THINK I HAD THE  EMOTIONAL LITTLE BIT  DIFFERENTLY RESTATED MAYOR IF  IF WE GOT THAT.  >> THE DIRECT THE CITY MANAGER  TO WORK WITH STAFF TO THE TO  FACILITATE A CONVERSATION WITH  THE AREA BUSINESSES FOR  OFF-STREET PARKING ASSESSMENTS  TO THE BUSINESS.  >> I STILL THINK YOUR SECOND  COMMISSIONER SAYING ALL RIGHT.  THAT THERE'S NOTHING ELSE AND  THAT PASSES 4 TO 0 YOU HAD A  3RD ONE COMMISSION THE 4TH  MOTION IS TO HAVE THE CITY  MANAGER. WORK WITH STAFF. 2.  UP WITH POTENTIAL OTHER  OPTIONS.  >> PAID PARKING METERS. THE  PAID PARKING METERS AND OTHER  VIABLE.  >> SOLUTIONS TO THIS ISSUE.  >> I WOULD HAVE A MOTION MADE  BY COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL COULD  YOU REPEAT THAT  >> TO DIRECT CITY MANAGER WORK  WITH STAFF TO COME UP WITH  POTENTIAL OTHER OPTIONS TO  INCLUDE PAID PARKING METERS  AND OTHER VIABLE SOLUTIONS TO  THE PARK COMMISSION.  >> SECOND ONLY FOR  COMPENSATION PER BEFORE YOU  KNOW WE HAVE A SECOND BY VICE  MAYOR. COMMISSIONER MIKE BELL  RINGS UP AN ISSUE THAT IT'S  NOT JUST SPECIFIC PARTICULAR  PARTICULAR 2 LOCATIONS IN THE  CITY AS WE GROW. THIS IS AN  ISSUE PLACE SO IT OVER. BUT.  WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT  PERHAPS IT MIGHT MAKE SENSE.  TO MAKE THIS A TOPIC FOR  ANOTHER DAY ON A GREATER SCALE  AND SO I SECOND THAT MOTION.  YOU KNOW UP PERSONALLY I'M NOT  SO SURE THAT THAT.  >> STAFF'S TIME WOULD BE BEST  SUITED FOCUSED ON THESE BUT AT  THIS PARTICULAR RISK WHEN  REALLY I THINK IT SHOULD BE  PART OF A LARGER CONVERSATION  THAT WE SHOULD CITY WHAT YOU  KNOW REGARDING CITYWIDE  PARKING ISSUES LIKE THIS.  >> I'M SURE LIKE IT'S  INTERESTING YOU BRING THAT UP  VICE MAYOR BECAUSE I'VE BEEN  HAVING CONVERSATIONS WITH CITY  MANAGER ALONG THOSE SAME  LINES. AND IT'S ALL OF OUR  MORE COMMERCIAL AREAS AS WE  LOOK AT OUR. REZONING PROPOSAL  WHERE PROPOSING MIXED USE AND  A LOT OF AREAS. THERE WILL BE  IN NEED FOR PARKING SO I ALSO  WOULD LIKE TO SEE A PLANNED  CITYWIDE FOR PARKING.  >> I DON'T WANT TO PUT ANY  DATA ON OTHER AND THE PRESSURE  ON I THINK WE ARE GOING TO  HAVE TO TACKLE THAT FROM A  PLANNING POINT OF VIEW.  >> SO UP.  >> I APPRECIATE MISTER. THAT  WILL BRING IT UP BECAUSE IT IS  AN ISSUE BUT NOT JUST FOR THIS  FOR.  >> COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YEAH  I HEAR WHAT YOU'RE BUT BECAUSE  THIS ONE ALREADY HAS THE  DESIGN PLANS. IN PLACE I WOULD  KIND OF LIKE TO KEEP IT AS  THIS PROJECT FOR THE NORTH AND  SOUTH. AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE  TO MAKE A SEPARATE MOTION TO  GIVE DIRECTION TO CITY MANAGER  FOR CITYWIDE CONSTRAINTS I  WOULD BE WILLING TO SECOND  THAT BUT PART OF THE PROBLEM  IS DEVELOPERS COME FORWARD AND  SAY HEY CAN WE GET REDUCED  PARKING COMMISSION APPROVES IT  SO WE'RE WE'RE CREATING THE  PROBLEM TOO. IF MY MOTION CAN  STAND AS IT IS I I WOULD BE  GRATEFUL. AND THEN CREATE A  SECOND MOTION OR CITYWIDE  PARKING ISSUES. AS I LIKE TO  SEE MOVE FORWARD, THIS A VERY  SPECIFIC.  >> ITEM THAT THE WORKS AS  COMMISSIONER SET FOR A LONG  TIME WE'RE ALREADY HAVE THE  DESIGN AND WE ALREADY KNOW  WE'RE TALKING ABOUT OTHER  REZONING THE JOY SHUNS WE'RE  NOT REALLY SURE WHAT HOW  THAT'S GOING TO LOOK WHEN  THOSE AREAS GET BUT THIS ONE  WE ALREADY KNOW WHAT THE IT'S  IT'S THERE AND IT'S BEEN THERE  FOR BIKE AND TIME SO. IT COULD  ALSO BE CONSIDERED LIKE A  PILOT, BUT SAY LET'S GET  SOMETHING IN PLACE FOR THIS  AND SEE HOW IT WORKS OUT WE  FAR WITH ONE OF THE  SUGGESTIONS THAT STAFF MAKES  AND WE FIND YOU THAT'S NOT  REALLY WORKING OBVIOUSLY WE  DON'T WANT TO IMPLEMENT THAT  THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE BUT WORK  FOR THIS LITTLE ARE STILL SO.  BUT I DO UNDERSTAND ULTIMATELY  WE HAVE OTHER AND JURY MAKE  PUBLIC OR NO I HAVE NOT OKAY  THAT NEW  >> MY MY SUGGESTION THAT WE  TAKE A LOOK AT THE BIGGER  ISSUE. IT WAS NOT MY INTENTION  TO DELAY THE TOPIC ON TABLE  ELECTION 9 TO FORWARD.  >> WHAT THAT AND AND I'D BE  HAPPY TO MAKE A MOTION ABOUT  THE LARGER PARKING ALRIGHT,  VICE THAT.  >> YOU ECHO MY SENTIMENTS I  ABSOLUTELY OF THE FIRST  MOTIONS ABSOLUTELY SUPPORTIVE  ROOM FOR WHAT MY CONCERN  TAKING STAFF'S TIME TO LOOK AT  MYRIAD OF OTHER OPTIONS  WHETHER IT BE PAID PARKING  RIGHT THING BUT AS FAR AS IS  ASSESSING OR WHETHER THE THE  BUSINESSES IN THAT AREA ARE  WILLING TO DO THAT WHAT THE  ACTUAL COST IS WE DO NEED TO  MOVE FORWARD ON THIS PROJECT'S  TAKEN EVER YOU CAN STOCK IT  NOT TO GET THAT. BUT AS FAR  LOOKING AT CREATIVE WAYS.  HANDLE THE PARKING ISSUE  THAT'S JUST SUCH A BIGGER  TOPIC THAT'S WHY I WANT TO  SERVICE TO IT AND I'M AFRAID  WE'RE GOING TO JUST SPEND TIME  STAFF'S TIME.  >> ON A SMALL PIECE AND HAVE  THEM COME BACK AND SAY SHOULD  REALLY BE PART OF BIGGER  CONVERSATION SO THAT'S THE  REASON WHY REALLY NOT.  >> BUT LEAST STARTED  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YEAH, I  JUST WANT TO. I WANT TO DRILL  DOWN MY MOTION TO MAKE SURE  THAT IT'S UNDERSTOOD I'M NOT  LOOKING AT RE-DESIGNING THE  PARKING WHEN I SUGGESTED OTHER  VIABLE SOLUTIONS IT WAS MORE  THE FINANCIAL PART OF IT I  WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT'S  I DEFINITELY PAID FOR DESIGN  THERE'S NO SENSE REINVENTING  BUT TO LOOK BABY STAFF HAS  OTHER ALL RIGHT.  >> JUST MAKE SURE THAT  FINANCIAL IS ADDED TO THAT  MOTION I WOULD BE GRATEFUL TO  JUST THROW IT DOWN IF IT'S OK  WITH MY SECOND YEAR.  >> BUT WE WANT TO MAKE AN  AMENDMENT TO THAT OR WHAT DO  DO.  >> IF MY SECOND THERE IS A  MUTABLE BEING AMENDMENT AN  AMENDMENT I MAKE AN AMENDMENT  TO ADD AND THE FINANCIAL  SOLUTIONS. 2. THE MOTION.  >> ALL RIGHT SO WE HAVE AN  AMENDMENT MADE BY COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL TO AT THE FINANCIAL.  AND SECOND IT WITH VICE MAYOR  SO LET'S VOTE ON. THE  AMENDMENT.  >> PASSES 4 TO 0. AND WE GET  TO VOTE ON ME. A MOTION AND IT  AS AMENDED. AND THAT PASSES 4  0. WE THAT.  >> COMMISSIONER LANGDON WANT  TO MAKE ANOTHER MOTION.  VERSITI WANT.  >> YES THAT DO THAT YET. I'D  LIKE TO INSTRUCT CITY MANAGER  TO WORK WITH STAFF. LET'S  CREATE A CITYWIDE PARKING.  PLAN. WITH FUNDING OPTIONS  DAY.  >> TBD.  >> ANYONE PARKING PLAN. SO SO  BELIEF WHAT LIKE CERTAIN OTHER  AREA OR JUST.  >> I'M WOULD APPLY WE DON'T  KNOW WHAT PARKING AREAS WE'RE  TALKING ABOUT WELL WHERE THERE  ARE.  >> BUSINESSES.  >> THE THOUGHT WOULD BE TAKE  YOUR LEAD TO TAKE A LOOK IN  LIGHT OF OUR REZONING PLAN TO  TAKE A PARKING ALONG OUR  COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS MIXED  USE. ORDERS CERTAINLY WOULD  NOT NEED PARKING IN THE MIDDLE  OF A NEIGHBORHOOD. WHEREVER  WE'RE GOING TO HAVE BUSINESSES  WE SHOULD. PLAN HOW WE'RE  GOING TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE  BUSINESSES. YOU WANT TO MAKE  AN HONESTLY REALLY DON'T CARE  WHAT HOW THEY WOULD KNOW THAT  IF WE DON'T KNOW.  >> ARE THERE GOING TO KNOW  WITH IF WE TAKE A LOOK AT WE  HAVE TO APPROVE ZONING FOR US  RIGHT UP AND DONE THAT YET  SOMEBODY.  >> AIN'T A VERY SPECIFIC  EXAMPLE LIKE THIS IS VERY  SPECIFIC WHERE THEY ARE AND  RELATE TO THAT BUT I DON'T  UNDERSTAND I THINK PART OF THE  PLAN IS TO IDENTIFY WHERE WE  NEED THAT PARKING WELL IN  LIGHT OF THE COMMERCIAL  INDUSTRIAL BUILDING MOTIONS  ITS.  >> DIFFICULT FOR ME, I MEAN I  MEAN.  WE HAVE PARKING REQUIREMENTS  FOR ALL OUR BUSINESSES. AS  CITY THAT'S GROWING. AND  REZONING. PERHAPS IT WOULD BE  WORTH OUR WHILE FOR STAFF TO  LOOK AT. A CITY STRATEGY. FOR  PUBLIC PARKING. THAT WOULD  BENEFIT. PRIMARILY.  INTERACTION WITH BUSINESSES  BUT ALSO TO A DEGREE  RESIDENCIAL E AND  AND MORE MORE ON THAT VEIN AS  OPPOSED TO. SOMETHING.  TARGETED LIKE THIS PREVIOUS  SITUATION, YOU KNOW THAT THE  CITY WAS STRANGE TO ME IT'S  TIME FOR THE CITY TO LOOK AT  PARKING GARAGE TO LOOK AT A  PARKING LOT TIME TO LOOK AT  LIKE WHAT YOU GOT SAINT  ARMANDS WHERE YOU CAN PARK IN  MANY SPOTS AND AND PAY TO  PARK. I DON'T KNOW BUT THAT'S  IN ADDITION TO OUR BASIC  REQUIREMENTS FOR PARK COMING  BUSINESSES NEED TO PROVIDE  PARKING BUT. YOU KNOW, LET'S  FACE IT AS WE GROW. IT IS AN  ISSUE PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY  RAISED ISSUE YOU KNOW I'VE  SPARKED THE PARK. DIFFICULT.  SO I MEAN MAYBE THAT'S THE  IDEAS THAT STAFF COULD LOOK AT  IT, I MEAN QUITE FRANKLY IN AN  ATTEMPT TO GET STRETCHING  CONVERSATION A LITTLE BUT WE  ARE WORKING SO HARD TO GET  THIS ULDC I WOULD REALLY LIKE  TO SEE THEM JUST FOCUS ALL OUR  ATTENTION AND GET THAT ****  THING COMPLETED.  >> AND YOU KNOW IT JUST KEEPS  GETTING PUSHED AND PUSHED OFF  AND IT NEEDS TO GET SO I MEAN  MAYBE THIS IS A MOTION THAT  SHOULD WAIT. I MEAN CERTAINLY  NEED TO LOOK AT IT, BUT. THE  SAME PEOPLE HAVE TO GET THE  ULDC TARGET PEOPLE ARE GOING  TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS THING  AND TELL LIGHT ON.  >> I AFTER HEARING THE  ADDITIONAL CONVERSATION, YOU  KNOW I WAS THE SECOND OR BUT I  I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION  THAT THERE WERE TARGETING  AREAS. COMMISSIONER STOKES AND  COMMISSIONER LANGDON ARE AWARE  OF. THAT ARE UNRELATED TO THE  REZONING OF THE CITY. IF THERE  ARE NO SPECIFIC TARGETED AREAS  WHERE THEN I THINK THIS AT  THIS POINT IN TIME PREMATURE  AND THAT AT THIS POINT I  CANNOT SUPPORT MOTION EVEN  THOUGH I WAS THE SECOND THERE,  BUT I WANTED TO EXPLAIN WHY  BECAUSE. THE CONVERSATION I  THOUGHT WAS MORE TIME WE GET A  SO. THANKS FOR THAT THAT.  >> AND THAT'S WHERE I WAS  COMING FROM AS WELL WE HAVE.  OUR KEY PROBLEMS FROM  BUSINESSES THAT WERE  ESTABLISHED ALONG THE ACCESS  ROAD BECAUSE THERE WAS NEVER  REALLY ANY PARKING OTHER THAN  THOSE LITTLE TINY AREA SO  THAT'S WHY I WAS WELL DURING  LIKE WHERE ELSE WOULD WE HAVE  THAT BUT I AGAIN I THINK WITH  THE REZONING PERHAPS IT IS  PREMATURE WE SHOULD GET THE  ULDC DONE.  >> BUT ONCE THAT IS DONE I  UNDERSTAND WE HAVE WIRE MONTHS  FOR PARKING.  >> BUT AS WE REALLY STEP BACK  AND LOOK AT THAT HAVING 25  BUSINESSES IN A ROW WITH  INDIVIDUAL PARKING. FLOW OF  THAT AREA MIGHT BE BETTER  SERVED, WHAT'S OWED ABOUT.  >> A GROUP PARKING AREA AND A  WALKABLE AREA.  >> AND TO HAVE EACH INDIVIDUAL  SMALL BUSINESSES HAVE THEIR 6  OR 8. LOT SO.  >> I'M HAPPY TO WITHDRAW THE  MOTION FOR SECOND NEED TO TAKE  THE VOTE WE NEED TO TAKE ABOUT  10 MINUTES COMMOTION RESTATED  PLAN, YES ME.  >> YOU CITY MANAGER TO WORK  WITH STAFF CREATE A CITYWIDE  PARKING PLAN WITH FUNDING  OPTIONS DATE TO BE DETERMINED  AND SO THAT THAT MOTION IS  BEYOND THE SCOPE OF OUR  NOTICED ITEM ON THE AGENDA AND  I APOLOGIZE THAT I DID NOT  HEAR THE NUANCES OF THE  LANGUAGE WHEN IT WAS  ORIGINALLY THAT. AMERICAN  SPEED DON'T HAVE IT ON THE  AGENDA TO DISCUSS RIGHT THAT  THE AGENDA IS LIMITED TO THIS  BUT WITH RESPECT TO PARK  NUMBER 41. SO IF YOU WANT TO  WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT MEANS  FOR MORE THAT SHOULD BE AGENDA  ITEM. ALL RIGHT SO WHAT'S THE  PROPER PROCESS CITY CLERK TO  LIE WITHDRAW MY MOTION  PARLIAMENTARIAN PROCEDURE IS  TO VOTE ON THE MOTION LEGAL,  ISOM TRUMP AT JUST OTHER  THAT'S NOT WHAT ENTERING  PROCEDURE DOESN'T BUT WE JUST  VOTE ON THE MOTION. I DON'T IT  NO IT WAS NOT IN WHEELS.

THIS IS THANKS TO THE LOCALLY  NAMED MYAKKA HACHI CREEK ALSO  KNOWN AS THE BIG SLEW  WATERSHED.  >> THE 195 SQUARE MILE  DRAINAGE AREA FLOWS THROUGH  DESOTO MANATEE AND SARASOTA  COUNTIES THEN THROUGH OUR CITY  TO EXIT AT CHARLOTTE HARBOR.  AS THE CITY OF NORTH PORT IS  LOCATED AT THE LOW END OF THE  BIG SLEW WATERSHED DRAINAGE  SYSTEM. THE CITY'S CURRENT  FLOODING AND WATER QUALITY  CONDITIONS ARE ATTRIBUTED NOT  ONLY TO THE CITY'S GROWTH BUT  ALSO TO UPSTREAM RUNOFF IN THE  DESOTO MANATEE AND SARASOTA  COUNTY PORTIONS OF THE BIG  SLOW. DURING SIGNIFICANT RAIN  EVENTS PONDING CAN ALSO OCCUR  PONDING OCCURS AND LOW-LYING  AREAS THAT ARE CHARACTERIZED  BY POORLY DRAINED OR SUPER  SATURATED SOILS WITH  BACK-TO-BACK RAINFALL EVENTS  THE GROUND IS TOTALLY  SATURATED WHICH INCREASES THE  RUNOFF DURING A STORM. THE  CITY WORKS HARD TO MAINTAIN  ITS STORMWATER CONVEYANCE  SYSTEM WHICH IS COMPRISED OF  ROADSIDE SWALES DRAINING INTO  79 MILES OF NAMED WATERWAYS.  >> AND 132 MILES OF RETENTION  DITCHES THAT INTERCONNECT WITH  EACH OTHER AND WITH THE MYAKKA  HACHI CREEK. THERE ARE 64  WATER CONTROL STRUCTURES OF  WHICH 23 ARE GATED WATER  CONTROL STRUCTURES 5 ARE GATED  DROP STRUCTURES, 28 ARE FIXED.  WE'RE STRUCTURES AND 8 ARE  DROPPED STRUCTURES. THE  CONTROL ELEVATIONS OF THESE  STRUCTURES ARE DESIGNED SO  THAT WATER IS RETAINED IN THE  WATERWAYS AND A STEP-DOWN  ELEVATION SYSTEM  CONFIGURATION.  >> THIS MEANS THE WATER LEVELS  IN THE WATERWAY SEGMENTS  BETWEEN STRUCTURES  PROGRESSIVELY DECREASES  ELEVATION FROM NORTH TO SOUTH  AND FROM EAST TO WEST. THIS  SYSTEM CONFIGURATION ALLOWS  BOTH RETENTION OF STORM WATER  RUNOFF FOR WATER QUALITY  TREATMENT AND STORAGE FOR  POTABLE WATER USE IN  PREPARATION FOR A STORM, THE  GATES ARE OPENED AS NEEDED TO  CONVEY FLOOD WATERS.  >> THE CITY HAS AN ONGOING  PROGRAM TO INSPECT AND REPLACE  OLD CORRODED STRUCTURES SINCE  2006 13 OF THE HIGH PRIORITIES  STRUCTURES HAVE BEEN REPLACED  OR REHABILITATED THE CITY ALSO  HAS A PROGRAM TO CLEAR THE  DITCHES OF SEDIMENT DEPOSITS  THAT HAVE ACCUMULATED OVER  TIME AND CLEAR FALLEN TREES  AND DEBRIS IN THE MYAKKA HACHI  CREEK. THIS ALSO HELPS RESTORE  THE FLOW CAPACITY OF THE  WATERWAYS.  >> MY STORY SHORT NORTH PORT  IS PRONE TO FLOODING, BUT THE  CITY WORKS HARD TO MAINTAIN  CONVEYANCE CHANNELS WATER  CONTROL STRUCTURES AND  PROCEDURES PUT IN PLACE TO  LESSEN THE IMPACT.

I  DON'T ROAD AND I 75 A GREAT  CENTRAL LOCATION MUCH CLOSER  TO SOUTH COUNTY THAT'S COMING  OUT OF THE GROUND NOW ARE VERY  EXCITED ABOUT WHAT THAT'S  GOING TO DO FOR THIS AREA.  THAT IS ANOTHER ISSUE WANT TO  KIND OF BRING TO YOUR  ATTENTION I THINK IT'S A GREAT  LITTLE. PIECE OF NEWS WE IN  DECEMBER OF 21 SARASOTA COUNTY  PURCHASE OF PARCEL ON SAN  MATEO. IT WAS ONE OF NORTH  PORT'S PRIORITY PROJECTS THAT  THEY WANT TO SEE PURCHASE TO  THE NEIGHBORHOOD PARKLAND  PROGRAM. I'M GIVING A PACKET  PERHAPS YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH  THIS. STAFF MET WITH YOUR 2  WEEKS AGO TALKING ABOUT THIS  PROPERTY WHAT WE WOULD LOVE TO  SEE IS WE WOULD SEE THIS  PROPERTY CONVEYED TO THE CITY  OF PORT. AND THEN ALONG WITH  THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO PUT  IN SOME OF THE START OF MONEY  THAT WE PUT ASIDE WHEN WE WANT  THIS PROJECT TO LOOK AT WHAT  COULD BE DONE HERE SOME  IMPROVEMENTS. IT'S NOT GOING  TO BE MAJOR PARTNERS REALLY  NICE ARE HAWKINS PART AND IT  DOES IT IS ADJACENT TO  PROPERTY THAT THE CITY ALREADY  OWNS AND IN FACT IT CONNECTS  TO WATER PARK OUT THERE NORTH  OF HIGH SCHOOL. AND SO IT'S A  GREAT LITTLE PIECE OF  PROPERTY. WE WERE ABLE TO  PURCHASE THAT LITTLE CORNER  LOT ON SAN MATEO IS WELL IT'S  NOT SHOWN HERE IN THE RED  OUTLINE.  >> WE DID PURCHASE WE ALSO  SENT LETTERS TO ALL OF THE  SMALL PARCELS THAT WHY LONDON  STREET THERE FOR PURCHASE WE  HAVE WILLING SELLERS WILL BUY  THOSE AS WELL AND DO ALL WE  CAN TO MAKE THIS A REALLY NICE  FOR THE COMMUNITY SO WELL THE  COLLABORATE WITH YOU OUR STAFF  TOGETHER AND SEE HOW WE CAN  MOVE THAT FORWARD. I CERTAINLY  SUPPORT THAT. AND THEN I DID  AND I'M GIVING YOU ANOTHER  UPDATE OBVIOUSLY THIS IS AND  MOST IMPORTANT THING WORKING  ON RIGHT NOW. AS YOU KNOW  AFTER HURRICANE IAN CAME  THROUGH AND DEVASTATED.  MANY IN OUR COMMUNITY. AND  MEASURABLE DAMAGE. ONE OF THE  THINGS WE DID IS A COUNTY AS  WE REACH OUT FOR A GRANT. FROM  HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT  DEPARTMENT. WE SWUNG FOR  FENCES WHEN WE ASKED FOR THAT  GRANT WE ASKED FOR A  150 MILLION DOLLARS WE THOUGHT  WE WERE REALLY STRETCHING IT  AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW THEY  DIDN'T AGREE WITH A 150. THE  TEAM BACK IN THE AWARDED US  201 AND A HALF MILLION  DOLLARS. WE WERE UPSET WITH  THEM ABOUT THAT ACTUALLY AND  WE DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND  KEEP THE EXTRA 50 MILLION  DOLLARS WHAT I'VE GOT HERE FOR  YOU PROBABLY ONE OF THE  THINGS, I'M VERY PROUD ABOUT  THAT IS THAT IT WAS A DIRECT  ALLOCATION TO SARASOTA COUNTY.  NO MIDDLE AND ON TAKING FUNDS  OUT OF IT. NO ONE AND SAYING  HOW WE'RE GOING TO USE THIS  MONEY BETWEEN US AND THE GRANT  SO THAT'S A GREAT POSITIVE  THING ONE OF ONLY 4 COUNTIES  IN THE STATE THAT RECEIVED  DIRECT ALLOCATION SPEAKS TO  HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT WAY  SARASOTA HAS DEALT WITH GRANT  MONIES. PROUD OF THAT BUT I  JUST GO THROUGH THESE QUICKLY  THE SEATS IN FRONT OF YOU. WE  CATEGORIZE THEM FIRST OF ALL  WAS HOUSING HOW HOMEOWNER  REHABILITATION AND  RECONSTRUCTION. FOR THOSE  WHOSE HOMES WERE DESTROYED.  AND NEED TO BE REBUILT. WE  ALLOCATED 40 MILLION DOLLARS  OF THE GRANT HOMEOWNER  REIMBURSEMENT, THIS IS FOR  THOSE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCE OUT  OF POCKET EXPENSES, NOT  REIMBURSED BY INSURANCE OR  FEMA. AND SO THEY PAID FOR  THEM UP FRONT BECAUSE THEY  NEED TO GET IT DONE, BUT THEY  HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. THEY  WILL BE ABLE ASK FOR  REIMBURSEMENT SOME. MAYBE EVEN  ALL OF THOSE FUNDS DEPENDING  ON THEIR STATUS. IS DEALING  WITH AND ONE OF THE CRITERIA  THAT WE WORK WITH LOW TO  MODERATE INCOME FAMILIES. SO  THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO  QUALIFY. BUT THIS MINE WILL BE  AVAILABLE TO REIMBURSE THEM  FOR EXPENSES, THEY HAVE SPENT.  OUT OF POCKET. THAT LAUNCHED  IS 8 IN APRIL SO WE'RE LOOKING  TO OPEN UP THOSE APPLICATIONS  NEXT MONTH SO KEEP YOUR EYES  OPEN FOR THAT. HOUSING ONE OF  THE THINGS HEART OF COURSE IS  TRYING TO DO IS HELPING A LOT  OF DISPLACED FAMILIES AND  HOUSING IS THEIR FOCUS SO HAVE  ALLOCATED 40 MILLION DOLLARS  TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING  PROJECTS. OCCASION OPENED UP  TO MARCH JUST OPEN UP THERE  WILL BE OPEN THROUGH MAY FIRST  2024. SARASOTA COUNTY SETTING  THE BAR ON DOING ALL WE CAN TO  CREATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. YOU  MAY RECALL IN THE ARPA FUNDS  CAME IN WE ALLOCATED  25 MILLION DOLLARS OF OUR  89 MILLION DOLLAR ALLOCATION  WE WERE THE NUMBER ONE COUNTY  IN THE STATE IN TERMS OF HOW  MUCH MONEY. PERCENTAGE OF  MONEY OF OUR FUNDS THAT WE FOR  WATCHING. AND NOW WHEN THIS  CAME THROUGH MY COMMENT WAS  LET'S DO SOMETHING BIG WE'VE  GOT YOU KNOW YOU DON'T GET  MANY CHANCES TO NUMBER LIKE  THIS. LET'S DO SOMETHING BIG  AND SO WE ALLOCATED 40 MILLION  DOLLARS TO THESE PROJECTS AND  WHAT WE WANT TO SEE HAPPEN  HERE. WE DON'T WANT TO JUST  FUN PROJECTS INDIVIDUALLY WHAT  WE WANT TO DO IS SEE A NUMBER  OF PROJECTS COME THROUGH WHERE  WE CAN LEVERAGE THESE DOLLARS  AND CREATE YOU KNOW 1000 OR  MORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS.  WE WITH A 25 MILLION DOLLARS  FOR MARKER. WE WERE ABLE TO  CREATE ABOUT 700 AFFORDABLE  HOUSING UNITS SO WHAT CAN WE  DO WITH 40 MILLION DOLLARS.  AND SO WE'RE EXCITED TO SEE  NONPROFITS. COMMUNITY  PARTNERS. COMEY FOUNDATIONS  PRIVATE DEVELOPERS. LOOKING AT  ALL ASPECTS WANT TO BE  CREATIVE WHILE EVER THESE  DOLLARS AND WE REALLY WANT TO  MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN TERMS OF  AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND I WOULD  LOVE TO SEE A LOT DOWN HERE IN  PORT. SO WE'RE LOOKING TO SEE  THAT HAPPEN. I KNOW I'VE  TALKED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE  VERY EXCITED ABOUT LOOKING  POSSIBILITIES. SO. IF YOU KNOW  SOMEONE YOU HAVE CONTACTS YOU  HAVE A WAY TO KIND OF UP  SOMEONE'S PORT NEW BOOK BUILD  PROJECT HERE WILL GET ON  BOARD. BEST OF OUR ABILITY AND  AND MAKE THAT HAPPEN. THERE  ARE SOME VOLUNTARY HOUSING  BUYOUT AND THAT'S IN AREAS  THAT CONTINUE HERE FLOODED SO  AND IN THIS GOAL FOR  16 MILLION DOLLARS WHAT WE'RE  TRYING TO DO PROBABLY HAVE  SOME CONTINUOUS AREAS THAT ARE  JUST PROBLEM AREAS AND MAYBE  DO SOME BUYOUTS IN IN THOSE  THOSE AREAS. AS YOU KNOW  INFRASTRUCTURE. IS A HUGE NEED  WE ALLOCATED 45 MILLION  DOLLARS TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE.  WE RECEIVE THOSE APPLICATIONS.  YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED TO KNOW  THAT WE RECEIVE REQUESTS FOR  MORE MONEY THAN WE SO WE COULD  USE ANOTHER COUPLE 100 MILLION  DOLLARS. BUT WHAT IS HELPFUL  IS PRIORITIZING THOSE PROJECTS  BECAUSE NORTH KOREA HAS A LOT  OF NEED. THERE'S SOME GREAT  PROJECTS VERY EXCITED ABOUT  SOME OF THE PROJECTS THAT HAVE  BEEN A PIPE OR THEY ARE JUST  ALL GOOD. BUT WE'RE NOT GOING  TO BE FUN OF ALL WE'RE GOING  TO FUND SOME OF THEM PARTIALLY  SO WE'RE GOING TO WORK  TOGETHER TO MAKE THOSE DOLLAR  STRETCH AS FAR AS POSSIBLE.  BUT YOUR WORK WILL BE TO  PRIORITIZE THEM. SO WE KNOW  OKAY. HOW DO WE HOW WE SPREAD  THESE DOLLARS ON HAVE  INCREASED IMPACT. WE CAN  25 MILLION DOLLARS AND THIS IS  A PROJECT I'VE BEEN THE TABLE  SINCE I BECAME A COMMISSIONER.  25 MILLION DOLLARS IS  ALLOCATED TO IMPROVING SOUTH  RIVER ROAD. THAT ROAD FLOODED  FOR DAYS AND PEOPLE WERE  TRAPPED COULDN'T GET OUT OF  TURN ONLY EVACUATION ROUTE.  I'M WORKING WITH EVERY AGENCY  I KNOW HOW THE MPO I'M WORKING  WITH OUR LEGISLATORS I'M  WORKING WITH CONGRESS WANTS TO  BE REACHING OUT AND WORKING  ACTUALLY I WORKING WITH THE  DEVELOPER. WE'RE TRYING TO  COME TOGETHER TO SEE HOW WE  GET THIS PROJECT DONE SOONER  RATHER THAN LATER SO WE'RE  PUTTING OUR ENERGY THAT WE CAN  TO GET THAT PROJECT COM. AND  THEN ANOTHER THING I THINK IS  REALLY IMPORTANT LOT OF PEOPLE  LOST THEIR JOBS AND THEN JOBS  ARE CREATED IN TERMS OF.  RECOVERY AND REBUILDING AND  THINGS OF THE PROJECTS WE'RE  TALKING ABOUT HERE WITH  INFRASTRUCTURE WITH NEW  AFFORDABLE HOUSING THAT'S  GOING TO TAKE PEOPLE TO BILL.  AND SO WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO  IS SAY IF WE CAN HELP RETRAIN  PEOPLE WHERE WE GET PEOPLE  TRAINED IN THESE CAREERS,  THAT'S A VERY POSITIVE  ECONOMIC THING THAT'S GREAT  FOR OUR COMMUNITY. SO WE  ALLOCATED 15 MILLION DOLLARS.  2 CAREER TRADES TRAINING AND I  THINK THERE'S SOME GREAT  OPPORTUNITIES AND REPORT. WE'D  BE OUT OF SHANNON STOPS MAYBE  GOING TO CREATE A WORKFORCE.  TRAINING FACILITY AND GET SOME  OF THE PRIVATE INDUSTRIES  INVOLVED AND SEE WHAT WE CAN  DO TO HELP PEOPLE GET RAN SO  THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY  THAT'S GOING TO BE OPENING UP  THE APPLICATIONS FOR THAT BE  OPEN MAY. SO AGAIN ALL OF  THESE CATEGORIES GREAT  OPPORTUNITIES, I KNOW YOU GUYS  HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH OUR  STAFF ON  ♪ ♪ AS BEST YOU CAN GET THESE  DOLLARS OUT.

WAS  PIERRE A. USED TO DETERMINE.  LIKE. WHAT ON WHAT THE RAIN  WOULD BE IN OTHER WORDS LIKE  WHAT WE WOULD PAY ON THIS DEBT  OBLIGATION. BOTH THE THE THE  SURTAX PORTION AND AND THE  MILLAGE RATE PORTION FOR  CHICKEN CAESAR UP TOGETHER 2  DIFFERENT BONDS. THAT WOULD BE  PACKAGED AS ONE REFERENDUM  ITEM. DIRECTOR IT IS ON THE  WAY.  >> IN THE NAME WILLIAMS ON A  STRICTER. SO FOR THE FRONT  TURNING THE RIGHT OBVIOUSLY WE  DON'T KNOW WHAT THE MARKET'S  GOING TO BE DOING WHEN WE GO  OUT. BUT WE REACHED OUT TO OUR  FINANCIAL ADVISORS WHICH APS  FILM AND THAT WE'VE THEY  SUGGESTED THAT WE USE 6%  CALCULATIONS THESE ARE ALL  JUST ESTIMATES IT WON'T BE  FINAL UNTIL WE ACTUALLY GET TO  THE POINT THAT WE GO OUT TO  MARKET TO ISSUE THE BONDS LOOK  FOR THE BEST RATE WHETHER  SPAWNS A BANK LOAN.  >> THE BEST DEAL THAT WE CAN  GET FOR THE CITY OF THAT TIME  AND  >> THAT I MEAN ARE THEY LONDON  REUTERS TODAY. THEY ACTUALLY  ARE THEY IN THE MARKET, BUT I  MEAN ONLY BECAUSE YOU KNOW I  QUESTION WHEN YOU ACTUALLY.  PUT THE BOND BRING TOGETHER I  MEAN VERY THING YOU FIND THAT  YOU KNOW THOSE NUMBERS TO THE  GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND IT'S A  POINT TO 2 POINTS LESS THAN ON  SO I GET I GUESS MY QUESTION  IS HOW.  >> REALLY REALLY FALL IS THIS  AND THE REASON I ASK WE'RE  LOOKING PRESENTLY.  >> 15 OH WHAT A UP 2 *****.  THAT WOULD BE FUNDED FROM  50 MILLION IN SURTAX THE OTHER  TO BE FUNDED 35 MILLION FROM  MILLAGE RATE INCREASE THAT THE  VOTERS WOULD BE ASKED TO. MIKE  AND AND IT'S BEEN ALL ALONG IS  THAT. THE UTILIZATION OF  SURTAX. PROVIDES A MUCH BASE  OF PARTIES WHO CONTRIBUTED TO  THAT. TO THE PAYMENT OF THIS.  SAFETY BUILDING. I'M NOT ONLY  DO WE HAVE PROPERTY OWNERS.  BUT WE HAVE. RENTERS WE HAVE  TOURISTS WE HAVE SNOW BIRDS.  WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO SHOP OVER  THE WHO MAY NOT EVEN COME TO  PORT BECAUSE WE GET A PRORATED  SHARE OF  THE COUNTY. SO TAX AND WE ARE  A FAST-GROWING WE GET BASED ON  POPULATION SCHOOL BOARD TOO  GREAT A SHARE. CONCERN HAS  BEEN THAT YOU KNOW. THE THIS  POLICE. HEADQUARTERS IS I  BELIEVE NECESSITY. AND IT IS A  NEED IT IS NOT ALONE. AND I  BELIEVE THAT. THE POSSIBILITY  EXISTS WITH A DIVE INTO THE  SURTAX SO FAR THAT 50 MILLION  WAS PRICE. WIDENING TO A  MOVING PHASE 2. IT'S NEED. BUT  MAY NOT HAVE THE HIGHEST LEVEL  LOW PRIORITY EQUAL TO ACE  POLICE HEADQUARTERS THAT  PROVIDES SAFETY TO OUR  CITIZENS. PROJECTS AND SHOULD  ACTS. TOO TO TAKE THE APPROACH  OF A ASKING CITIZENS VOTE  THEMSELVES A PROPERTY TAX  INCREASE. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE  US. TRYING FINANCE VAST  MAJORITY IF NOT OF THIS  PROJECT CERTAIN TAX IN IS  GRANTED THERE AS WE TALKED  LAST MEETING SUCH. ALMOST  NONEXISTENT NOW BUT IN THE  GENERAL FUND COULD GROW OVER  THE YEARS AND IF THIS WERE TO  BE SPREAD. OVER A PERIOD OF  YEARS. WE'RE SURTAX WAS THE  PRIMARY FUNDING UP TO THIS. WE  WOULD ALLOW OUR CITY TO GROW  OATH. PROPERTY OWNERS  RESIDENTIAL LEE AS WELL AS  COMMERCIALLY SO IF THE NEED  DOWN THE LINE. LOOK AT THE  POTENTIAL OF MILLAGE INCREASES  TO PAY FOR SOME OF THIS. WE  WOULD FACED A JOINT FRONT AND  I GUESS WHAT I'M SAYING IS  THAT. TO SIT HERE AND SAY  50 MILLION COMING SURTAX PRICE  WIDENING TOO. AND 35. COMING  FROM A MILLAGE RATE INCREASE  QUITE FRANKLY THAT'S ONLY 85  AIMING TO GET THAT NUMBER TO  WHERE WE NEEDED TO BE WE'RE  NOT LOOKING AT 35 WE'RE  LOOKING AT ANOTHER 10 OR  20 MILLION DOLLARS WHICH IS IN  MY ESTIMATION. ASKING CITIZENS  TO VOTE FOR OVER 10% INCREASE  AND I SAY WHY DON'T WE ASKED  THEM TO DO IT. IF WE COULD  FUND THIS. WALLACE. IN THE  SURTAX POP SO I WOULD WE EVEN  LOOK AT THE LANGUAGE FOR THIS  REFERENDUM. I WOULD LOVE TO DO  A DEEP DIVE EVERY SINGLE  SURTAX PROJECT AND LOOK TO  COULD WE GET NUMBER TO  78 MILLION. IT WAS THE LESLIE  ERIN.  >> WE'LL HAVE SAY THE FIRST  AND THAT'S WHEN YOU HAVE THE  ENTIRE LIST WE HAVE THE STAFF  COULD NOT TAKE DELIVERY OF  REMOVING ANY PROJECTS AND IT'S  SOMETHING WE COULD NOT  REARRANGE ONE MAJOR PROJECT  STILL HAVE ASIAN ABOUT THAT AS  WELL. I WOULD JUST AS  SOMEONE WAS GOING TO ADD YEARS  AND I'VE SEEN LIST SORT OF  EVOLVED OVER THAT TIME. THERE  ARE A LOT OF DEPARTMENTS STAFF  COMMISSIONERS AND CITIZENS  CONNECTED TO A LOT OF THESE  PROJECTS IT HAPPENED ALREADY  SHIFTED AND WE WE DO SHIP  SOMETHING FOR THE POLICE  HEADQUARTERS WHICH I THINK  EVERYONE KNOWS WHERE I STAND  ON THAT THERE ARE UNINTENDED  CONSEQUENCES OF MOVING THE  ITEMS SO WE PLAY WE HAVE BEEN  A VERY DELICATE CONVERSATION  ON MONDAY TO ALLOW YOU TO HEAR  FRO, YOU KNOW EVERYONE IN VOL  TO GET TO THE GOAL OF REDUCING  THE BURDEN ON THE TAXPAYERS  WELL.  >> I APPRECIATE THAT AGAIN YOU  KNOW. YES, THE AVERAGE CITIZEN  IN MY OPINION WHETHER OR NOT  THEY WANT TO VOTE THEMSELVES A  PROPERTY TAX INCREASE OR. PUT  A HOLD ON.  WALKED SO TAX PROJECTS I THINK  BUT THE ANSWER WHICH STAND FOR  ITSELF AND THE IDEA HERE IS TO  GET. POLICE HEADQUARTERS BILL.  IT IS IN NEED. AND IT'S  RIGHTEOUS SO AGAIN I DON'T  KNOW HOW WE TALK I KNOW I WIN  INTO THAT MONDAY ME THAT FIRST  OF APRIL MEETING BECAUSE.  WE'RE SITTING HERE AND YOU  WOULD LIKE US TO TALK ABOUT  THIS REFERENDUM LANGUAGE AND.  IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY UPLIFT  ABILITY. WELL I THINK WE'RE  GOING TO END UP OR GO IN AND  VOTE.  >> IN THIS SO THIS WAS THE  DIRECTION WE WERE GIVEN PRIOR.  >> SO IT'S DATE YOU IN REAL  TIME SO THAT YOU WILL SEE THAT  ALYSSA PLAYER TOO. OBJECTION  TO THIS LANGUAGE. IF YOU  NUMBERS THAT GO DOWN PATH WAY  THIS IS WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE  YOU CAN CHANGE THE NUMBERS TO  HOWEVER YOU DECIDE BUT  LANGUAGE A GREEN IT IS NOT  SOMETHING THAT SHOULD WAIT  UNTIL LATER IN THE PROCESS  BECAUSE IT IS SOMETHING TO  THEM BY A TIMELINE AS TO THE  SUMMIT. SO.  >> I JUST A GUESS THIS THAT  LANGUAGE BECAUSE WE DECIDED  50 MILLION 35 1 MILLION  TONIGHT BUT.  >> THE NUMBERS THEIR WILL WE  HOPE THAT YOU'LL BE WITH THE  LANGUAGE IN THE WAY THAT EAT.  >> AGAIN NOT WHAT IF WE DECIDE  ELISE PURCHASES THE RIGHT WAY  TO GO IN THAT REFERENDUM  LANGUAGE IS USELESS THEN WE  WILL CHANGE IT BUT AS OF TODAY  YOU DECIDED THAT YOU WANT TO  GO THIS DID OK THANK YOU.  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL.  >> YEAH AT.  >> FOR  >> I'M NOT COMFORTABLE TALKING  ABOUT REFERENDUM LANGUAGE  UNTIL WE HAVE EVERYTHING  IRONED OUT.

I AM NEVER  WANT TO WAIT ON SOMETHING  SHOULD BE DONE TODAY, HOWEVER.  I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE  STRUCTURE THIS THING THAT  WHETHER IT'S A BOND ISSUANCE  THERE'S SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS  TO STRUCTURE A BOND ISSUANCE.  >> AND THEY ALL HAVE A DIRECT  IMPACT ON.  >> DEBT SERVICE.  >> DIFFERENT WAYS OF  STRUCTURING THE PAYMENTS. THEY  CAN BE EVEN THROUGHOUT THE THE  LIFE OF THE ISSUANCE OR IT CAN  VARY LESS NOW MORE ONE NOW  LESS LATER.  >> ALL I HAVE.  >> STRATEGIC.  >> IMPLICATIONS AND AND I JUST  DON'T FEEL. WE AS A TEAM. HAVE  REALLY LOOKED AT ALL THE  DIFFERENT WAYS WE CAN DO THIS.  AND AND WHAT THE IMPACT MIGHT  BE. BECAUSE AGAIN I THINK IT'S  IMPORTANT THAT WE MINIMIZE  DEBT SERVICE AND IF WE CAN  MINIMIZE OR EVEN ELIMINATE THE  NEED TO RELY ON THE MILLAGE  RATE INCREASE THEN I I WANT TO  TAKE A LOOK AT THAT. THOSE  OPTIONS. I JUST DON'T FEEL IT  WOULD REALLY LOOKED AT ARE  DISCUSSED AS A TEAM ELISE  PURCHASE AGAIN THERE ARE  DIFFERENT WAYS OF DOING THAT  THAT HAVE IMPLICATIONS ON DEBT  SERVICE COST THAT KIND OF  THING.  >> SO.  >> I REALLY FEEL THAT LOOKING  AT THE LANGUAGE OF THIS  REFERENDUM QUESTION IS  PREMATURE. I AGREE WITH MY  FELLOW COMMISSIONERS ON THAT.  AND WE DO HAVE A WORKSHOP  COMING UP THAT MIGHT PROVIDE  US WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK  AT THAT. CITY ATTORNEY DID A  GREAT JOB ANALYZING WHICH  OPTIONS ARE POSSIBLE AND. WHAT  SOME OF THE ISSUES MIGHT BE  WITH THEM, BUT BUT OBVIOUSLY  SHE DIDN'T INCLUDE FINANCIAL  IMPACT THAT'S NOT A ROLE. SO  I'M JUST FEELING THAT LOOKING  AT REFERENDUM LANGUAGE TONIGHT  IS PREMATURE. AND I'D LIKE TO  WAIT UNTIL WE CAN HAVE DEEPER  DISCUSSIONS ON OPTIONS.  >> THE YOU  >> IF YOU KNOW I SORT ECHO  LANKANS AND CITIAN IT. INTO  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL, WE NEED  TO ME.  >> FOCUS ON THE STRUCTURAL  FUNDING OPTIONS, YOU KNOW HOW  DO WE DO THIS. IT IS IS THE  BEST THING TO DO TO BONDS IN A  REFERENDUM AS 5TH MINUTE 35  WOULD BE BETTER TO DO WITH  GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND FOR  85 MILLION.  >> OR A 100 MILLION WOULD IT  BE BETTER TO DO A LEASE  PURCHASE.

AND IF  THERE'S ANY WAY HUMANLY  POSSIBLE TO DO THIS WITHOUT.  ASKING PEOPLE TO GIVE  THEMSELVES A PROPERTY TAX  INCREASE BY GOD WE SHOULD FIND  A WAY TO DO IT AND WE DON'T  HAVE IN MY OPINION. THIS  COMMISSION DOESN'T HAVE THE  EXPERTISE TO DO IT. AND I'M  NOT SURE WHETHER WE'VE  GARNERED THOSE RESOURCES SO  YOU KNOW AGAIN I JUST FEEL  LIKE. I TO GO WITH THIS THING  I MEAN WHAT YOU KNOW HAVEN'T  IF YOU WANT TO.  >> YEAH JUST A LITTLE BIT  HISTORY.

BUT IN  THE ABSENCE OF INFORMATION IT  MAY LOOK LIKE WELL WHAT  HAPPENED TO THE BOEING IS THAT  WE TALKED ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO,  KNOWING THAT IT TAKES LEGAL  FINANCE IN OUTSIDE SUPPORT  ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT  QUESTION NEEDS THE NEEDS OF  THIS COMMISSION NOTED TO BE  PUT INTO A PUBLIC. SETTING IT  SAYS DRAFT AT THE TOP OF I'M  NOT ASKING ANY WOULD GET TO  COME INTO IS A PART OF THE  PROCESS IS A PATHWAY THAT WE  DISCUSSED IT MAY BE CHILLED.

YES,  BUT THE BIGGEST IMPACT WOULD  BE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE HOUSE  AND IT PUT IT THAT WAY BECAUSE  UNDEVELOPED LAND WOULD BE MUCH  OF THE TAXABLE VALUE WAS AS  THE HOUSE.

THAT'S NOT  THE ISSUE. IN MY OPINION.  THE ISSUE IS THAT. PROPERTY.  OWNERS UNDER THIS. PRESIDENT  APPROACH COMBINATION OF SURTAX  AND MILITARY TO PAY. PROPERTY  OWNER IN THE POSITION OF  HAVING TO PAY TWICE.  WE HEY INTO THE SURTAX THROUGH  CONSUMPTION WHEN WE PAY OUR  SALES TAX. EVERYTHING  PURCHASE. AND THEN AGAIN WE'RE  NOW ASKING PROPERTY OWNERS.  HEY WE ALL OF WEVE THE BENEFIT  OF A SAFE CITY. WHERE WILL ALL  BENEFICIARIES OF THAT. AND I  JUST BELIEVE THAT ALL MY OR.  THAT THIS PROJECT SHOULD BE  PAID WITH SURTAX WHICH IS  PAYABLE BY EVERYONE BENEFITS  FROM THE SAFETY AND THIS CITY  AND IT SHOULDN'T BE UNFAIRLY  BORNE BY OUR PROPERTY. OWNERS  AND EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING WE  COULD DO TO EITHER ELIMINATING  THE NEED. OR POSTPONE THAT  NEED. AND GET IT OUT THERE IF  WE COULD GET 10 YEARS AT A  SURTAX FUNDS.

WE HAVE BASE OF  CITIZENRY RESIDENTIAL  COMMERCIAL HELP ABSORB THAT SO  WOULDN'T BE THAT BIG AND  THAT'S WHY THE STRUCTURE OF  THIS TRANSACTION NEEDS TO  ONE IN WHICH THE CITY  LEADERSHIP HAS THE ABILITY TO  PULL FROM A VARIETY OF FUNDING  SOURCES STARTING WITH MILEAGE.  BUILDING GRANT MONIES BUILDING  IMPACT FEES AND AS A LAST  POSSIBLE RESORT LOOKING TO  GENERAL FUND WHICH PRIMARILY.  PROPERTY TAXES. I THINK WE OWE  THAT TO OUR CITIZENS. THIS IS  THE ULTIMATE NEED NOBODY  DOUBTS THAT SAFETY THE MOST  IMPORTANT THING THAT WE  PROVIDE OUR CITIZENS. AND  SHOULD WANT TO SECOND GUESS TO  SUBJECT MATTER PROFESSIONAL  SWEATS IT. THIS IS THE PROJECT  WE NEED THIS IS A PROJECT WE  NEED. HOW WE PAY SHOULD BE  BORNE BY EVERYONE WHO BENEFITS  AND THAT'S ALL I'M SAYING AND  I DON'T BELIEVE WE HAVE REALLY  ATTACKED EVERY. ABILITY TO  LOOK I I'M SORRY I WOULD THINK  THAT SURTAX LIST AND YOU CAN  NOT TOUCH POLICE NOT TOUCH  FIRED NOT TOUCH. PUBLIC  WORKS INFRASTRUCTURE. AND YET  I COME UP WITH 80 MILLION  DOLLARS WORTH THE SURTAX  MONEY. IF I CAN DO IT IT'S  SUBJECTIVE BUT I THINK EVERY  ONE OF US NEEDS TO DO THAT AND  THAT'S WHAT THE ON ON THE  FIRST US ALL OF THAT. THAT'S  THE NEXT SPOT JUST START IF  YOU ASK ME. SOMEBODY HAS GOT A  BETTER WAY WE COULD TALK ABOUT  STRUCTURE, LEAST VERSUS ON I  MEAN BUT KUZ HERE IT WOULD BUY  ON THAT WHICH IS BETTER TO DO  WHY WOULD WE JUST LEAST THIS  LEAST TO PURCHASE SO MUCH  BETTER.

I SECOND THAT.  >> OKAY AND THAT MOTION ON THE  FLOOR BY COMMISSIONER VETO OF  A CHANGE THEY PREFER SCHEDULED  WORKSHOP TO A SPECIAL MEETING.  >> I HAVE SOME THAT WAS  SECONDED BY VICE MAYOR. AND  AND DISCUSSED YES.  >> WITH TALKED A LOT ABOUT  NEEDING A MORE COMPLETE  ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT BONDS  STRUCTURES VERSUS DIFFERENT  WAYS OF DOING I JUST DON'T  THINK ENOUGH TIME BETWEEN NOW  AND MONDAY TO DO THAT. SO I  WOULDN'T BE SUPPORT OF THAT  MOTION I'M MORE I LIKE TO  INSTRUCT AT CITY MANAGER TO  WORK WITH STAFF. TO IDENTIFY  THE REQUISITE EXPERTS WHO CAN  DO THAT ANALYSIS BRING IT BACK  TO  I I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD HAVE  TO TAKE. TO DO THAT. BUT. I  JUST DON'T THINK I WOULD BE  ANY MORE QUIT ON MONDAY TO  MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT THIS THEN  I WOULD.  >> IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING.  MONDAY'S WORKSHOP IS TO MOVE  AROUND CIP PROJECTS AND IN  SURTAX PROJECTS WOULD NOT BE  IN FAVOR OF MOVING SURTAX  PROJECTS UNTIL AFTER WE HAVE  BEEN DISCUSSION WITH THE  CHAMBER. I WOULD BE IN FAVOR  OF POSSIBLY CHANGING AROUND  SOME CIP PROJECTS AND TO YOUR  POINT COMMISSIONER LANGDON  ABSOLUTELY WE'RE NOT READY FOR  OTHER PEOPLE TO COME IN AND  HELP US WITH THE BINDING  THINGS THAT WERE BROUGHT UP  TODAY ON MONDAY, WE KNOW THAT  IN THE FUTURE BUT I'M JUST  TALKING ABOUT MONDAY'S  COMMISSION WORKSHOP TO BE A  MEETING SO THAT WE THEN WE CAN  GET SOME GENERAL DIRECTION SO  THEY CAN START WITH THAT PIECE  OF THAT PUZZLE AND ALSO  POTENTIALLY GIVE DIRECTION ON  HOW TO FUND THE 100% DESIGN  PLANS THAT WE ALREADY GAVE  ♪ MADE A MOTION IMPROVE BEFORE  THAT'S ALL I WAS LOOKING FOR.  WORKSHOPS WORKSHOPS ARE BUT IF  DECISIONS HAVE TO BE MADE THEY  HAVE TO  ♪ BE MADE THEN TIMELY AND THAT  CANNOT HAPPEN IN THE WORKS. I  HAVE A QUESTION SHORT.  >> BUT WHAT ARE THE  IMPLICATIONS OF THAT TERMS OF  NOTIFICATION AND THAT KIND OF  THING. TEND TO NEW POST  >> ACTUALLY LET'S LEAVE AND  PRIOR POST. WE DIDN'T POST  POSTED OUR FIRST MEETING TODAY  AND THE THAT'S WHY SENATE IN  AWE.  >> I DIDN'T JUST CHANGE IT TO  US. MAKE VOTE FOR THAT YOU  OKAY.  >> THERE. I MEAN THE BIGGEST  REASON I DO THINK THAT THE  VAST MAJORITY WILL DISCUSS THE  FIRST WILL WOULD LEND ITSELF  TO TO THE WORKSHOP BUT BUT I  DO THINK WE REALLY NEED TO  TAKE A HARD LOOK AT AT THE THE  FUNDING OF THE DESIGN ASPECTS  BECAUSE IT'S YEAR OUT FROM  THAT I MEAN THIS IS IT'S TIME  SINCE WINNING AWARD THIS  PROJECT GETS STRETCHED ONE  WHERE THEY I BELIEVE WE'RE  GOING TO DO THIS ONE WAY OR  THE OTHER WILL FIGURE OUT HOW  TO FUND IT. BUT THAT JUST SAW  ASK TEXANS DO NEED TO GET AND  AND THE TALK ABOUT HOW THAT I  BELIEVE IT WAS LIKE 4 MILLION  GETS PAID OUT. I DON'T BELIEVE  THAT ALL AT ONE TIME, BUT WE  NEED TO HAVE THAT DISCUSSION  BE IN A POSITION.  >> TO MAYBE GIVE DIRECTION  THAT'S THE REASON WHY AGENDA  REALLY HATE LOSE THE ABILITY  TO DO THAT ALL RIGHT SO SO.  >> THE MOTION IS TO CHANGE IT  TO A SPECIAL MAKE ANOTHER  MOTION TO HAVE THE AGENDA  MEANT I WOULD ASSUME IT NEEDS  TO BE AMENDED NOW TO INCLUDE  FINANCING FOR THE 100% DESIGN  PLANTS AND FUNDING OPTIONS. SO  LET'S TAKE THE MOTION THAT'S  ON THE FLOOR. ALL THE QUESTION  AND SEE WHERE LANCE. THERE'S  NO FOR EMOTION THAT YOU YOU.  YEAH A MOTION TO CHANGE IT  FROM A WORKSHOP TO A SPECIAL  MEETING THAT WAS MADE BY  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL SECONDED  BY I'M SORRY YES.  >> OKAY ITS VOTE ON THAT. THAT  PASSES 4 TO 0. NOT KNOWING  WHAT'S ON THE AGENDA IS THERE  SOMETHING ON THE WORKSHOP  AGENDA THAT INCLUDES FUNDING  OPTIONS FOR 100% DESIGN  PLANTS.  >> WELL STAFF AND.  >> CITY MANAGER BE PREPARED BY  MONDAY TO HAVE THAT DISCUSSION  BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T MENTIONED  IN INTRODUCTION OF THIS THAT  YOU NEEDED THAT. APPROVAL.  FUNDING APPROVAL.  >> YES COMMISSIONER, SO IN  MEMO THAT WE'VE OUTLINED. YOU  DON'T HAVE SOURCE TO PAY FOR  THAT OTHER THAN ONE BALLOT. SO  OUR AIM IS NOT GOING CHANGE  BETWEEN NOW AND MONDAY.  >> SO AT THIS TIME AND WE  WOULD NEED TO HAVE THE ENDED  TO INCLUDE THAT DISCUSSION.  AND IT IS THAT WHAT I'M  HEARING. IS THAT YOU WANT  MONTH. I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO  HAVE CITY MANAGER OR CITY  CLERK COMMEND THE AGENDA TO  INCLUDE FUNDING. DISCUSSION ON  GETTING THE NORTH POOR.

ARE  LOOKING FOR. WHEN YOU WANTED  TO GIVE DIRECTION TO. THE FINE  COUNCIL AND ON INVESTORS AND  STEP AT A FUTURE MEETING.  THOSE DISCUSSIONS AND WE WE'VE  GOT TO GIVE THEM DIRECTION AND  AT HOME WHAT WE WANT THANK  YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A  MOTION TO. REQUEST CITY  MANAGER TOO. AFTER HIS STAFF.
