to go back to have something added to the quote of ordinance what is it that you're looking just to add on to when it comes to section c I believe when it comes to duties to have us have a sit down meeting to where we're able to sit down and actually discuss what it is that we're planning to do and not just like what we plan to do but understand like how the meeting should be ran and also like how we should be talking and appearing at the meetings due to the sshi law we have to have all discussions in an open Forum okay but I was also meaning like because most of us don't really know like when we should be saying motion or second or yes I have I have a training that I will be sending you guys for your review so you can understand the concept of the okay meeting okay does anybody else have any questions if not that concludes our agenda oh okay before you all adjourn um congratulations Mr chair Vice chair we really want to hear what you all want to see in this city so I'm happy that a new generation of leaders are coming forth in the city of opaka and just like you talked about we want to make changes to the ordinance so whatever you all discuss bring that to the commission so that we know what you want to see the the the events the the laws resolutions things that can help better the city of opaka from your lenses so the things that you all discussed here make sure it this

is it possible to create a group chat amongst the um the board members everything has to be open due to the Sunshine Law it has to be discussed and open for question so it'll just continue to run through message threads well email threads yes okay what specifically like what what is considered open and the the current the form that we have now okay thank [Music] you so when it comes to event planning anything related to giving advice everything happens through emails and through meetings in the it happens in the board meeting all right is it possible to have it set for the next meeting we can discuss our first event that we possibly may want for the city because an idea that I had was a community engagement fair with a side of education so more so the city of haia just recently had an engagement fair to where Miami day College Barry University Nova University along with a few others actually went to the park so we can do say at Sherbon Park where they're able to different residents can come and see what the schools have to actually offer but also what the city has planned so more so with Summer coming up any summer camps and any side excursions that the city may have would everyone be okay with that yes can I motion to place down the agenda uh would I make a motion yes that's that's a great idea um but moving forward what I'll do is I'll reach out to each one of the board members to see what guys would like so that we can um we can work on those items for the next for the following meeting okay would you be amendable to Ingram Park or do you want it to be at shabi um we can actually discuss that I think she would prefer if we discuss it at the next meeting because it can be an open discussion between us all to see which park that we see the best because for me personally like I know shonnie because that's where I always go but I know that they also just redid Ingram am I mistaken was it Ingram or was it um I always forget the name of the other part seagull which one were you done so we haven't re we didn't redo any of the parks recently we just reopened Ingram Park so that's probably what you're referring to okay okay yeah I believe at the next meeting we can fully discuss it in detail to where we can actually plan it out good okay have any other discussion no okay I need a motion to adjourn I make a motion to adjourn this meeting at 6:02 second please he second meeting is a GI we
