[4.  

Gray-Robinson Lobbying Update

THIS IS JOSEPH SALZBURG, WITH MARY ROBINSON OUT OF THE MIAMI IN TALLAHASSEE OFFICES. I HAVE MY PARTNER AND MY PARTNER IN CRIME AS IT RELATES TO YOUR REPRESENTATION. CHRIS CARMODY OUT OF ORLANDO OFFICE. AND I'D FIRST LIKE TO INTRODUCE. UM UH, WE HAVE SENATOR GILL. HAROLD UM FROM HER HOME THERE. I'VE SAT AT THAT TABLE BEFORE, AND IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU, SENATOR.

HER CHIEF OF STAFF, KAREN SWEENEY, AS WELL AS HERE AND THEN OUT OF REPRESENTATIVE JOHN SNYDER'S OFFICE, HIS CHIEF LEGISLATIVE AIDE, SARAH CRAVEN, IS HERE AS WELL. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE THE HONOUR OF REPRESENTING YOU AS YOUR PROFESSIONAL LOBBYISTS IN TALLAHASSEE.

OBVIOUSLY WE WORK HAND IN HAND WITH THESE FOLKS. AND WITH THAT, IF IT'S OKAY WITH THE MAYOR AND. COUNCIL AND THE AND THE MANAGER. WE'RE GOING TO KICK IT OVER TO SENATOR HAROLD, UM FIRST AND THEN, UH, AND THEN POSSIBLY SARAH AND CHRIS AND I CAN BACK CLEAN UP. SHE'S ON ME.

YEAH. THERE WE GO. HEY, THERE, MY OFF. CAN YOU HEAR ME? YES, MA'AM. OKAY WELL, THANK YOU ALL FOR HAVING US AND IT WAS A VERY INTERESTING SESSION. VERY DIFFICULT SESSION. OF COURSE MAKE AND WE APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK THAT GREAT ROBINSON DID. BUT WE APPRECIATE THE LEADERSHIP OF THE COUNCIL AND WHAT EVERYTHING THAT YOU WILL HAVE DONE TO KEEP US INFORMED AND MAYOR YOU ALWAYS SO YOU'RE EMPLOYED AND REALLY KEEP THIS SEAT. I SAID ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN INTERVIEWS. YOU KNOW, IN TIME, DEAR AND DEAR TO ME. WE USED TO HAVE A CLINIC THERE HAVE BEEN YEARS AGO. SO UH, WELL, INDIAN. IN IT WITH A GOOD YEAR. WE GET, UH, MONEY. INDIAN TOWN GIRLS. WE DID GET A REQUEST IN. AND THE PROJECT WAS ACTUALLY TURNED OUT TO BE MUCH BETTER THAN WE ANTICIPATED. WE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE VERY TOUGH HERE, LIKE THE ECONOMY HAS COME BACK. THANKS TO THE LEADERSHIP. THEY'RE TERRIFIC GOVERNOR. AND WE HAVE OPENED UP THE STAIRS OVER THERE IN TOWN AS WELL. IT'S A VERY GOOD YEAR FINANCIALLY. AND THEY EXCEPT I'M DELIGHTED THAT ME AND I'M REALLY YOU'RE ABLE TO THE ACT BETWEEN ROADWORK. YEAH. AND THAT'S GOING TO BE THE UNIT WILL $50,000 COMING TO HELP. SURE AND AS CHAIRMAN OF THE TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE, I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A FOCUS OF MINE AND MAKE SURE THAT ESPECIALLY IN OUR RURAL COMMUNITIES THAT WE ARE PUTTING THE DOLLARS INTO INFRASTRUCTURE. AND HELPING OUR RURAL COMMUNITIES TO REALLY GROW AND PROSPER. SO I DON'T WANNA TAKE TOO MUCH TIME. I KNOW YOU HAVE A BUSINESS AT ALL. SO I JUST MUSIC ANY DATA

[00:10:03]

GLOBAL BUDGET AND SESSION A LITTLE BIT, AND THEN WITH THAT, WE WON'T TAKE UP TOO MUCH MORE OF YOUR TIME. I THINK IN EACH OF YOUR PACKAGE, THERE'S ABOUT A 45 PAGE DOCUMENT. CHRIS AND I PUT TOGETHER WHICH IS A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW, ALTHOUGH WE DO MOST OF OUR WORK IN THREE MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR, DO NOT EVER HESITATE TO REACH OUT TO MERE CHRIS DIRECTLY. UM AND I'LL EVEN SAY, OBVIOUSLY REPRESENTS SNYDER AND SENATOR HAROLD'S OFFICE. WE TALKED WITH HOWARD OFTEN, BUT WITH THAT I'D LIKE TO KICK IT OVER MY PARTNER, CHRIS CARMODY. AND THEN AND THEN WE'LL GET OUT OF YOUR HAIR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU, JOSEPH. AND THANK YOU, SARAH KAREN AND SENATOR HAROLD JOSEPH SAID IT BEST, BUT I'LL ECHO IT. WE HAVE GREAT PARTNERS IN THE HOUSE AND SENATE THAT LOOK OUT ON YOUR BEHALF AND SO. UM, BE SURE WHEN YOU SEE HIM IN THE GROCERY STORE AT THE GAS STATION WHEREVER YOU SEE YOUR LEGISLATORS AND THEIR STAFF, THANK THEM BECAUSE THEY DID GREAT WORK AND IT'S JOSEPH SAID ON HIS PARTNER IN CRIME. WE LIKE TO THINK OF OURSELVES THE CROCKETT AND TUBBS WITH THE MIAMI OFFICE, EVEN THOUGH I'M BASED OUT OF ORLANDO, I'LL LET YOU DECIDE WHO CROCKETT IS. UM AND SO, UH, BUT DURING THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION, IT WAS A DIFFERENT ONE. AS YOU ALL CAN IMAGINE, WITH COVID 19 PROTOCOLS IN PLACE. CAPITAL WAS KIND OF EMPTY THIS YEAR. YOU HAD THE SENATE, WHICH WAS ON FULL LOCKDOWN FOR LACK OF BETTER TERMS WHERE WHEAT JOSEPH AND I AND OTHERS WOULD TESTIFY IN THE TUCKER CENTER FOR COMMITTEE MEETINGS. AND VERY SIMILAR TO THIS. UM AND THEN HOUSE. IT WAS SOMEWHAT LOCKDOWN, RIGHT? YOU COULD ONLY BE IN THE HOUSE CHAMBERS OR IN THE HOUSE BUILDING WITH AN APPOINTMENT. UH AND YOU WERE ESCORTED IN AND OUT. AND THEN IF YOU WANTED TO GO TO A COMMITTEE MEETING TO TESTIFY, YOU HAD TO GET PAST I CALL IT FOR THOSE WHO ARE OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THE DISNEY E PASS. AS I CALLED IT. THE DISNEY PAST CUTS ONLY WAY YOU COULD GET INTO THAT COMMITTEE ROOM. AND MAKE SOME TESTIMONY.

UH SO IT WAS DIFFERENT, BUT YET OUR LEGISLATORS FOUND A WAY TO GET THEIR JOB DONE, ESPECIALLY THE CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENT THAT THEY PASSED THE BUDGET, SO I WANTED TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT. I QUOTE DICKENS A LOT WHEN I TALKED ABOUT THE BUDGET FROM TAIL TO CITIES, IT WAS THE BEST OF TIMES. IT WAS THE WORST OF TIMES AS SENATOR HAROLD AND REPRESENTS SNYDER'S TEAM KNOWS, UM, GOING INTO SESSION IT WAS LOOKING LIKE THE WORST OF TIMES, RIGHT? IT WAS NOT AN EASY TIME TO BE LOOKING AT BUDGET PROPOSALS, OUR ECONOMY WHILE IT WAS ON THE UPSWING FROM THE FROM THE VERY LOW POINT IN THE EARLY PART OF PANDEMIC. IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE AS MANY RESOURCES FOR PROJECTS MUCH LESS TO TAKE CARE OF OUR K 12 ARE MEDICAID. AND WHAT HAVE YOU. AND ALONG THE WAY, WE CONTINUED OUR ECONOMIC GROWTH FROM REVENUE PERSPECTIVE AND IN THE FED'S THROUGH THE AARP PUT FORWARD $10 BILLION TOWARDS OUR STATE, WHICH, FRANKLY, WE DIDN'T GET OUR FAIR SHARE. BUT THAT'S A KUDOS TO ELECTED LEADERS LIKE YOU AND THOSE ARE LEGISLATORS AND OTHERS THAT HELPED GET FLORIDA REOPENED QUICKER. AND BACK TO WORK.

THAT'S WHY WE DIDN'T GET MORE THAN 10 BILLION, BUT THE LEGISLATURE HAD 10 BILLION TO SPEND, AND SO ULTIMATELY THEY PUT IT TOGETHER. $101.5 BILLION BUDGET. UM NOT SURPRISINGLY, THE LARGER PARTS OF THAT BUDGET GIVEN WHAT'S HAPPENED IN THE PANDEMIC IN OTHER PARTS, WAS OUR HEALTH HEALTH CARE PART SPECIFICALLY MEDICAID AND, OF COURSE EDUCATION, WHICH IS A TOP PRIORITY, BUT THEY CERTAINLY AS JOSEPH SAID, MADE ROOM FOR OUR OUR PROJECT THAT WE WERE SEEKING A FULLY FUNDED THE ROAD PROJECT BOTH THIS YEAR AS YOU CAN IMAGINE. DURING THE PANDEMIC, THE GAS TAXES WERE LOWER. AND AS A RESULT, DOCS CURRENT FISCAL YEAR BUDGET WHAT WAS LOWER THAN IT THAN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. AND WITH THE LEADERSHIP OF FOLKS LIKE OUR

[00:15:02]

WASTEWATER AND WATER QUALITY TYPE FUNDING. ANOTHER 500 MILLION, UH, IN THAT BOOK IT THERE WAS ACTUALLY ONE FOR EACH BUCKET IN THE BUDGET FOR THAT 500 MILLION EACH, AND MOST OF THOSE WERE FEDERAL DOLLARS. AS WELL. THEY PUT FORWARD FUNDING TOWARDS AFFORDABLE HOUSING THAT WAS PART OF A DEAL THAT WAS STRUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF SESSION. IF YOU BOUGHT A HOUSE RECENTLY, PROBABLY CALL THAT DOC STAMP YOU HAD TO PAY THE TAX ON THAT, TYPICALLY, THAT GOES TOWARDS SADOWSKI TRUST FUND. UM AND THAT WAS ALMOST ALWAYS GOING TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING. AND THEN IN MORE RECENT YEARS, IT'S BEEN SWEPT INTO GENERAL REVENUE THIS YEAR, THE DEAL THAT WAS CUT BETWEEN THE LEGISLATURES AND THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE THAT 50% OF THOSE FUNDS WILL GO TOWARDS AFFORDABLE HOUSING, WHICH IS ABOUT 200 MILLION. AND THEN THE OTHER 50% WOULD BE SPLITTING HOUSEHOLD QUARTER EACH OF THAT TOTAL FUND TOWARDS RESILIENCY. AND TOWARDS WATER QUALITY.

WASTE WATER. UM QUALITY ISSUES, AND SO THOSE ARE WINDS ACROSS THE BOARD BECAUSE ONE THE FUND WASN'T BEING SWEPT, SO THAT'S 200 MILLION THAT THEY WEREN'T OTHERWISE GOING TO GET TOWARDS AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS. AND CERTAINLY 100 MILLION IN EACH OF THOSE BUCKETS TO GO WITH THE FEDERAL DOLLARS. BY AND LARGE WHEN YOU HAVE $101.5 BILLION BUDGET, MOST EVERYONE'S HAPPY. THE GOVERNOR VETOED HIS BEACH HOUSE WERE MINIMAL. HE ONLY DID ABOUT 1.5 BILLION IN VETOES. I DON'T THINK THAT NUMBER WAS ON ACCIDENT. DON'T THINK HE WANTED TO BE THE FIRST GOVERNOR TO HAVE $100 BILLION BUDGET ON HIS WATCH WAS JUST A HAIR BELOW 100 BILLION WITH THOSE VETOES AND GOING INTO NEXT YEAR, THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE ABOUT $5 BILLION LEFT FROM THOSE FEDERAL FUNDS THAT THE BOTH THE SENATE AND HOUSE CAN WORK WITH THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE IN SPENDING, APPROPRIATING IF YOU WILL TO MAKE SURE FLORIDA'S IN THE RIGHT BALANCE. GOING FORWARD OUT OF THIS PANDEMIC AS OUR ECONOMY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE, AND WITH THAT THERE'S THE ONLY OTHER THING TO COVER AND I'LL GIVE IT OVER TO JOSEPH IS, UM, THE BUDGET THERE CERTAINLY CONSTITUTIONALLY REQUIRED, BUT YOU CAN'T TALK ABOUT THIS SESSION WITHOUT TALKING ABOUT THE COVID 19 RELIEF PROVISIONS THAT THEY PUT IN PLACE. AND THREE IN PARTICULAR, I'LL HIGHLIGHT AND THEN KICK IT TO JOSEPH FOR OTHER POLICY ISSUES BEFORE WE WRAP UP IS, UM THE COVID 19 LIABILITY RELIEF BILL THAT WAS DONE VERY EARLY IN SESSION AND SUM IT UP QUICKLY. WHAT STARTED AS A HEALTH CARE BILL, AND THEN THEY A GOVERNMENT NON PROFIT FOR PROFIT COMPANY BILL GOT MERGED. ESSENTIALLY WHAT IT SAYS IS. IF YOU INCLUDING THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN ARE NO WORSE THAN NEGLIGENT AND FOLLOWING CDC AND FLORIDA GUIDELINES WHEN IT COMES TO COVID 19 PROTECTIONS. YOU CAN'T BE SUED. NOW THAT IS AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION. THERE'S OTHER PARTS OF THAT. BUT ESSENTIALLY AS LONG AS YOU'RE DOING YOUR BEST TO FOLLOW THOSE GUIDELINES, IT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO SUE YOU FOR COVID 19 OR CONTRACTING THE VIRUS THERE AND YOUR FACILITIES, WHICH IS A IT'S A BIG WIN FOR ALL NOT TO PICK ON THE TRIAL BAR, BUT CERTAINLY NO ONE WANTS TO DEAL WITH A FRIVOLOUS LAWSUITS AND LAWSUITS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO PROVE. BECAUSE JUST THE FACT THE LAWSUIT GETS FILED IS EXPENSIVE IN ITS OWN RIGHT HAVING TO DEFEND IT. UM, THAT AS WELL. THEY DID. FRAUD FRAUD. GRAMLEY SADLY, FLORIDA IS NOT IMMUNE TO PEOPLE TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE'S GOODWILL. AND LIKE ANY NATURAL DISASTER WHEN PEOPLE CRY SCOUT OR SELF EFFECTIVE EQUIPMENT IN THIS PANDEMIC, WE SAW FOLKS SELLING DEFECTIVE OR NOT EVEN REAL. IN REALITY, PPD EQUIPMENT TO HOSPITALS AND TWO OTHER BUSINESSES AND THEN AS WELL. TRYING TO SELL FAKE VACCINES.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, AND TRYING TO PROVIDE THOSE SO THE LEGISLATURE PASSED A BILL THAT WOULD MAKE SURE THAT INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS THAT DID THAT WOULD BE PROSECUTED TO THE FULL EXTENT FIND TO HAVE FORCED EXTENT THAT THEY COULD, AND THEN FINALLY, THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY POWERS BILL THAT DEALT WITH COVID 19, AND IT WAS A LITTLE CONTROVERSIAL AND FOR HOME RULE PERSPECTIVE, BUT TO THE CREDIT, I GUESS WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE GOOSE IS GOOD FOR THE GANDER. UM, IT WAS. IT WAS AN EMERGENCY POWERS BILL THAT EFFECTIVELY CURTAILS THE RIGHTS OF BOTH THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN EMERGENCIES SUCH LIKE THIS A MADE EXCEPTIONS FOR PANDAS ARE FOR EXCUSE ME FOR NATURAL DISASTERS, WHICH MAKES SENSE BECAUSE HURRICANES ARE UNIQUE. THEIR IMPACT, ENFORCE AND TORNADOES AS WELL. BUT FOR PANDEMICS LIKE THIS, THERE ARE THERE WOULD BE RESTRICTIONS ON LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN THE EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF GOVERNOR AND HOW FAR THEY CAN SHUT DOWN A BUSINESS WITH THE IDEA OF NO LOCAL GOVERNMENT OR NO BUSINESS SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN FOR ANY LONGER THAN NECESSARY WHEN DEALING WITH THESE BECAUSE WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE OUR SERVICES AND PROVIDE FOR OUR CITIZENS. TALKED INTO THAT IT'S FAIRLY LAST MINUTE WAS WHAT WE ALL ARE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE VACCINE PASSPORT LEGISLATION, AND THAT IS WHAT IT SAYS IS PRETTY WHAT YOU'VE ALL HEARD IN THE NEWS. IS THAT NO ONE CAN REQUIRE A VACCINE PASSPORT TO ADMISSION TO PARTICIPATE IN A CERTAIN ACTIVITIES. THERE'S A FEW CARVE OUTS, BUT NOT REALLY A LOT, AND THAT'S CERTAINLY

[00:20:05]

IT'S NOT TO REPRESENT YOU GUYS WERE HAPPY THAT WAS SUCCESSFUL SESSION. UM, BUT ANY QUESTIONS HERE, AND IT'S NOT. WE'LL SEE YOU GUYS SOON. THE TALLAHASSEE HOPEFULLY, UH, PROTOCOLS I'M CHANGED. DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS. MAN. I MADAM MAYOR. I HAVE A QUESTION.

UH AND THIS QUESTION IS DIRECTED AT JOE OR EITHER CHRIS. IT REVOLVES AROUND THE $18.4 BILLION THAT WE MIGHT BE GETTING FROM THE AMERICAN RESCUE. PLAN ACT. AS YOU KNOW, WE'RE A NON ENTITLEMENT, COMMUNITY AND OUR MONEY WILL BE COMING FROM THE STATE. WHAT WE'RE HEARING DOWN HERE IN INDIAN TOWN IS, UH, THAT THE. LET STATE LEGISLATIVE SESSION HAS ENDED AND THERE WHAT? THERE WAS NOT AN APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE MONEY TO BE GIVEN TO, UH SMALL MUNICIPALITIES. AND, UH AND THEN THERE WAS DISCUSSION THAT THE GOVERNOR MIGHT USE HIS EXECUTIVE ORDER HIS EXECUTIVE POWER TO, UH, FOUND THE MONEY TO CITIES. HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING ON ON THIS MATTER? YES. UH I'LL TAKE THAT ONE. I KNOW THAT, UM CERTAIN MUNICIPALITIES SUCH AS YOURSELVES WERE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR DIRECT FUNDING. THEIR YOU KNOW. TRADITIONALLY THE PURSE STRINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY, UM, THE CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY OF THE LEGISLATURE. I THINK YOU SAW, UM SOME FEDERAL FUNDS TRICKLE THROUGH THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH, JUST LIKE CDBG PAYMENTS COME DOWN FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THIS CAN BE ADMINISTERED. UM BY THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH. I THINK OUT OF THE NEARLY $10 BILLION THAT THE STATE AFFORD IT RECEIVED FROM THE FEDERAL RELIEF FUNDS. IF YOU TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE.

1.3 BILLION OUT OF THE 1.5 BILLION. THAT WAS VITO WAS FEDERAL FUNDS, YOU ROUGHLY HAVE $7.5 BILLION STILL IN THE STATE COFFERS FOR THE 2022 LEGISLATIVE SESSION BUDGET. UM.

BUT I THINK IT'S TO BE DETERMINED. I'M NOT SURE I WOULD PREFER IF THE CENTER HAS HAS ANY THINKING ON THIS, UM IF YOU'RE GOING TO SEE SOME SOME PASS THROUGH FUNDING SIMILAR TO LAST YEAR, AND THE LIKE CDBG FUNDS, OR DOES IT HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY BE APPROPRIATED BY THE LEGISLATURE, AS THE MAJORITY OF IT WAS, AT LEAST THAT WAS ALLOCATED TO THE STATE. NO, IT'S VERY HARD TO SAY WHERE THIS WOULD BE GOING. YOU KNOW, THERE ARE THOSE FUNDS ARE COMING THROUGH THE STATE, SO THAT WILL BE TO A LARGE DEGREE PART OF THE GOVERNOR'S DECISION MAKING PROCESS. WE WANT. WE UNSETTLED AGAIN UNTIL JANUARY. SO ANY MONEY THAT IS GOING TO BE APPROPRIATE. YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE BUDGET IN JANUARY. UNLESS IT GOES THROUGH CBC. YOU KNOW, THE BUDGET COMMISSION. CAN WE AREN'T CHANGES BUT THAT HAS TO BE ALLOCATED IN THEIR PART, AND THEN ACTUALLY WORKING CLASS HAS TO GO THROUGH. IN ORDER FOR THE, UH, YOU KNOW THAT THE BUDGET CONFERENCE TO BE ABLE TO UH, ALCOHOL ADDITIONAL FUNDS IN SPECIFIC THINGS, SO IT'S VERY HARD TO SAY AT THIS POINT. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH THAT? HOWARD HAPPY, HAPPY TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU. OBVIOUSLY YOU KNOW, WE COMMUNICATE WITH THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE REGULARLY AND IF IT DOES HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE LEGISLATURE, HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOU THIS SUMMER AND THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE THAT HOPEFULLY IT'S IN THE RECOMMENDED BUDGET FOR THE GOVERNOR, WHICH IS. NOT RUBBER STAMP, BUT IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO START AND WORK. HAND IN HAND WITH YOUR DELEGATION. OBVIOUSLY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. VICE MARY CLARK. I DID SEE YOUR HAND UP. I JUST WANT TO THANK GARY AND ROBINSON FOR A JOB. WELL DONE, SENATOR HAROLD. THANK YOU, FOR ALWAYS SUPPORTING US AND TWO SENATORS.

I'M A REPRESENTATIVE SNYDER'S OFFICE AS WELL. THANK YOU ALL FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE. HELLO, KAREN. MR. COUNCIL MEMBER, DARLING, DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING? UM, YEAH, I HAD A QUESTION.

BUT, UM HOWARD HAS ALREADY SPOKE TO US. I JUST SECOND UM, THE KUDOS THAT THE VICE MAYOR SPOKE ABOUT. UM YOU KNOW WHEN, WHEN? WHEN WE WERE PROJECTING WHAT? COVID. WAS GOING TO BE.

WE HAD NO IDEA. UM AND I REMEMBER TALKING TO OUR FINANCE DIRECTOR. UM AND TALKING ABOUT,

[00:25:03]

SO NOW THE FETAL PERIOD IS OVER, AND WE WERE NOT VICTIM TO THE PEN. THAT MONEY IS COMPLETELY INDIAN TOWN SIMILAR TO THE, UM TO THE FUNDS BERNARD LAST YEAR SENATOR HAROLD AND THEN SPEAKER MEG ARTS. THE SPEECH. NEW FISCAL YEAR WILL BEGIN IN JULY. SO UM, AND THE FUNDS WILL COME THROUGH THE FOURTH DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION HAS PASTOR ENTITY, SO IT'LL JUST BE A COUPLE MONTHS UNTIL WE GET TO THE NEW FISCAL YEAR. BUT BUT KNOW THAT MONEY IS COMING TO IS WE'VE WE'VE. SURVIVED THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION AND WE'VE SURVIVED THE VETO PEN SO KNOW THAT MONEY IS COMING TO INDIAN TOWN THANKS TO THE HARD WORK OF SENATOR HAROLD REPRESENTATIVES LIKE MAYOR, JUST ADDING ON TO JOSEPH'S COMMENTS THERE AND YES, SURVIVED DEPEND ONE THING TO NOTE JUST AS A LOOKING AHEAD. COMMITTEE MEETINGS START FOR THE 2022 LEGISLATIVE SESSION IN SEPTEMBER, AND IT ASSUMING THEY MEET IN SEPTEMBER. THEY MAY CANCEL THAT ONE. SOME YEARS.

THEY DO SOME YEARS. THEY DON'T BUT SESSIONS STARTS IN JANUARY. IT WILL BE JANUARY AND FEBRUARY, THE FIRST WEEK OF MARCH. SO IT'S RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER, SO AS YOU MAYOR AND HOWARD AND TEAM LOOK AT THIS JOSEPHINE AS OUR TEAM AND OF COURSE, THE LEGISLATIVE TEAMS SHOULD PROBABLY START BEGINNING WORKING ON THIS PRETTY SOON IF WE THINK WE'RE GOING TO BE COMING TO THE LEGISLATURE NEXT YEAR, EITHER ON POLICY OR APPROPRIATIONS. BECAUSE THAT PROCESS WILL MOVE QUICKLY AND IT WILL BE HERE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT. WELL, I WANTED TO THINK GREY ROBINSON FOR HELPING US GET THIS TOO. THROUGH THE HOUSE AND THROUGH THE SENATE. I ALSO WANTED TO THANK, UM, SENATOR HAROLD, SHE IS AWESOME WITH HER STAFF. KAREN SWEENEY. YOU GUYS, I DEFINITELY ENJOY WORKING WITH YOU. UM AND I THANK YOU FOR BEING OUR REPRESENTATIVE. YOU GUYS ARE LIKE THE BEST. UM AND I WANTED TO ALSO THINK, MISS CRAVEN. AND IF YOU CAN SEND OUR REGARDS TO, UH REPRESENTATIVE SNYDER AND THANK HIM FOR HIS EFFORTS ALSO IN THE HOUSE, AND I APPRECIATE THE ASSISTANCE. YEAH. THANK YOU ALL. THANK YOU VERY MUCH GOOD TO YOU. THANK YOU. ITEM NUMBER FIVE. A PROGRESS REPORT. INITIAL FINDINGS WILL BE SUMMARIZED IN

[5.  

A progress report and initial findings will be summarized in a market retail presentation by project manager, Mr. Charles Parker, The Retail Coach.

THANK YOU, MR PARKER. YES. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. I THINK OUR INITIAL DISCUSSIONS MAYBE STARTED BACK AND FORTH TO LEAGUE OF CITIES WITH, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER STONE AND DOWLING EITHER 2018 OR COULD HAVE EVEN BEEN 2017 TALKING ABOUT RETAIL, AN INDIAN TOWN AND. AND EVEN THEN, I REMEMBER BOTH OF YOU TALKING ABOUT WHAT'S TO COMMENT THAT THIS IS

[00:30:03]

WHAT IS THE AREA THAT WE'RE SERVING ON A DAILY BASIS WHERE PEOPLE YOU KNOW, EITHER BUYING THEIR GROCERIES FILLING UP THEIR GAS TANKS EATING, PICKING UP COFFEE? AND FOR US, IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A DOUBLE EDGED SWORD BECAUSE WE ARE SO UNDER RETAIL. IT'S HARD TO MEASURE THAT AN EXTENT WITH WITH CELL PHONE STUDIES, BUT WE DO USE MOBILE LOCATION DATA TO ACTUALLY TRACK WHERE CONSUMERS ARE COMING FROM. SO EVERY TIME YOU DOWNLOAD AN APP ON YOUR PHONE, AND YOU AGREE TO THOSE TERMS FOR RESEARCH, YOU TURN ON YOUR LOCATION SERVICES. IT ALLOWS US TO DO THIS TYPE OF MEAT RESEARCH. IT IS ALL ANONYMOUS. UM IT'S CLEAR ONLY UP AND UP FOR THE ATTORNEYS IN THE ROOM. IT IS COMPLETELY WHAT WHAT THIS IS ALLOWS US TO DO IS REALLY POINT OUT, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS LIKE INDIAN TOWN THAT HEY, THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE SHOPPING MUCH MORE THAN JUST BEYOND MAYBE THE TRADITIONAL VILLAGE BOUNDARIES SO. WHAT WE DID. WE LOOKED AT WE GIORGIO FENCE AROUND CERTAIN PARTICULAR AREA. SO FOR THIS CASE, WE LOOKED AT TWO AREAS. FIRST, THE. THE MCDONALD'S THESE KIND OF SMALL MAPS RIGHT HERE, BUT THE LEFT ONE IS OUR MCDONALD'S AND OUR DOLLAR GENERAL ASPECT. UM, THERE SHOULD BE TWO OR CLICKED ONCE ONCE MORE. THERE YOU GO. PERFECT THE LEFT AREA IS THE GEO FENCE AROUND MCDONALD'S AND THE DOLLAR GENERAL. THE RIGHT WAS AROUND, UM, THE WAR FIELD CENTER. WHERE ARE OUR AIGA IS AND THOSE NUMBERS ARE SMALL, BUT ON THE LEFT AND ON AN ANNUAL BASIS THAT MCDONALD'S AND DOLLAR GENERAL HAS SEEN ABOUT 63,000 UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS PASSED THROUGH IT OVER A 12 MONTH PERIOD, WHICH IS. SAY A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT NUMBER FOR WHAT OUR POPULATION IS ON PAPER.

IF YOU WERE TO GOOGLE THE VILLAGE HERE ON ON THE RIGHT SIDE, WHERE OUR GROCERY STORIES IT'S ABOUT 45,000 PEOPLE AND GIVEN ANNUAL YEAR THE LAST FEW YEARS ON AVERAGE. SO THERE'S SIGNIFICANT TRAFFIC COMING THROUGH THERE, AND IT'S NOT JUST FOLKS WHO LIVE WITHIN 30 STEPS OF WHERE WE STAND TODAY. THAT'S IT'S A MAJOR THOROUGHFARE. UM AND IT'S IT IS SERVING A POPULATION MORE THE RURAL RURAL PART OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. IN THIS SECTION. SO THIS IS A LITTLE BIT OF A TREND LINE. SO THIS IS THE MCDONALD'S IN AND DOLLAR GENERAL TO INCLUDE THIS TO KIND OF SHOW THE IMPACTS OF COVID. SO THIS IS OVER A 20 MONTH BASIS OF THE FAR LEFT IS JANUARY 2019. THE FAR RIGHT IS ABOUT A FEW ACTUALLY, ABOUT A FEW WEEKS AGO.

SO ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN THAT MAP OR THAT WAY THROUGH THAT THING, YOU SEE THE KIND OF DIP THERE THAT STARTS RIGHT ABOUT THE END OF FEBRUARY OF 2020, AND THAT'S ALL WE KNOW. THAT'S WHERE WE WENT INTO LOCKDOWN ACROSS THE COUNTRY RETAIL EARLY SHOT DOWN, PEOPLE AT LEAST SHELTERED IN PLACE FOR A NUMBER OF WEEKS, AND THAT'S WHERE YOU SEE A LITTLE BIT OF A DIP. OVER THE NEXT THREE OR FOUR WEEKS WHERE YOU KIND OF SEE BETWEEN APRIL 27TH IN OCTOBER, 1ST BEFORE. UM MOST MANY STATES ARE A COUPLE OF STATES OF FLORIDA BEING ONE OF THEM GEORGIA AND TEXAS, WHERE I'M BASED OUT OF ARE STARTING TO OPEN UP AND FIGURE OUT A WAY. HOW DO WE MOVE FORWARD? BUT. THE THING THAT REALLY STANDS OUT WITH WHAT THIS COMPONENT IS IN MOST COMMUNITIES IN MOST AREAS. THAT DIP WENT DOWN TO ABOUT ZERO UM YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WERE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. BUSINESSES WERE FORCED TO BE SHUT DOWN AND CLICK THROUGH THE NEXT ONE. AND THIS IS LOOKING AT THE GROCERY CENTER AND THE SAME THING. YOU SEE A LITTLE BIT OF A DIP HERE, BUT WE DON'T SEE AS THE CATASTROPHIC DIP THAT WE SEE A RETAILERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I THINK WANT THAT'S A TESTAMENT TO THIS AREA THAT THIS IS A LITTLE BIT MORE COVID RESISTANCE AND THE FACT THAT. BECAUSE WE ARE A BIT MORE RULE. IT'S NOT LIKE PEOPLE WERE AS AFRAID OF GOING OUT. AND LIKE THE WORD MAYBE ORLANDO OR JACKSONVILLE, THERE'S A BIT OF A SENSE THAT YOU KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOR HERE AND THIS KIND OF THE POSITIVE ASPECTS THAT WE CAN SHOW BUSINESSES THAT HEY, THERE'S A BIT OF A COVID RESISTANCE IN A SENSE THAT FOOT TRAFFIC DIDN'T DRAMATICALLY DROP, EVEN IN THE WORST OF TIMES. ULTIMATELY ALLOWS US TO MAP OUT WHERE THOSE PEOPLE WERE COMING FROM. SO THIS IS OVER THE LAST 12 MONTHS. THOSE 63,000 INDIVIDUALS, THOSE 45,000 INDIVIDUALS, WE CAN MAP OUT WHERE THEY'RE COMING FROM WHERE THEY'RE ESSENTIALLY THEIR HOME LOCATION IS LIKELY TO BE BASED ON AN ALGORITHM. AND ALLOWS US TO ULTIMATELY PUT TOGETHER WHAT WE CALL OUR RETAIL TRADE AREA. SO IF YOU LOOK AT THAT, AND YOU KNOW THAT SHAPE IS NOT DEPENDENT ON. YOU KNOW, COUNTY VILLAGE LINES.

[00:35:07]

UM THIS IS JUST I'M GOING TO INCLUDE THIS INTO YOUR PACKET. THIS IS THE RETAIL DEMAND AREA.

A FEW OF THESE NUMBERS KIND OF SHOW THAT OUR TRADE AREA OF THAT 10,000 PEOPLE SPENT ABOUT $60 MILLION PER YEAR ON RETAIL GOODS AND SERVICES. RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF BUSINESSES TO CAPTURE THAT ALMOST ALL OF THAT IS BEING LEAKED OUT IN TERMS OF LEAKAGE NUMBERS GOING ELSEWHERE TO SPEND THAT MONEY. SO THERE IS, UM, FUNDS AND THERE IS MONEY TO BE SPENT ON RETAIL AND THIS IS WHAT WE USE ON THE RECRUITMENT SIDE OF THINGS TO GO AFTER EXPANDING BRANDS FOR THAT COMPONENT. WHERE WE ARE IN THE STAGE WHERE WE'VE WE'VE DONE THE MARKET ANALYSIS. ALL OF OUR REPORTS CAN BE FOUND ON OUR RETAIL DASHBOARD, WHICH I'VE INCLUDED IN YOUR PACKETS AND ON THE LAST LIVE TONIGHT, BUT WE'VE GOT A MYRIAD OF MARKETING. UH. PIECES WHERE IT'S KIND OF ONE PAGE FLYERS OR RESUMES FOR THE VILLAGE TO SAY WHAT THE OPPORTUNITY HERE IS IN TOWN THAT WE CAN GO EITHER RETAIL LIVE THAT I WENT A FEW WEEKS AGO. AH, WITH. DANIEL BACK THERE TO LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. UM, YOU KNOW, PROMOTING THE COMMUNITIES EVEN ARE LIKE I SAID A RETAIL DASHBOARD, WHICH IS MOBILE AND COMPUTER AT THE SAME TIME. AND THEN, LASTLY JUST INCLUDED JUST A FEW SIDES. TALKING POINTS.

YOU CAN FLIP THROUGH THESE, UM, LOOKING AT JUST FEW THE AREAS WHERE THE OPPORTUNITY IS AND THEN THE TAKEAWAY THERE IS THAT WE'VE GOT KEY OPPORTUNITIES ON THE FRONTAGE COMPONENT OF IT.

THAT YOU KNOW RETAILERS GOING TO COME IN AND LOOK FOR THE BEST AVAILABLE SITES. WE HAVE A LOT OF THEM WITH A LOT OF FRONTAGE COMING ON, AND I KNOW WORKING WITH THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM AND A FEW OF THE LOCAL DEVELOPERS HERE THAT ARE ALSO HIGHLY MOTIVATED, WHICH IS EXCITING FOR US TO TALK ABOUT. AS RECRUITERS TO WORK WITH THEM MOVING FORWARD TO FIND THOSE BRANDS THAT NEED TO BE HERE AND FIND A WAY TO GET THEM HERE. UM AND THEN, LASTLY, I'VE INCLUDED WHAT WE CALL AVOID ANALYSIS. THAT REALLY COMPARES WHAT WE HAVE IN TOWN SO. IT LOOKS AT OTHER SIMILAR COMMUNITIES IN THE SOUTHEAST THAT HAVE A DUNK IN A BURGER KING MCDONALD'S AND DOLLAR GENERAL WITHIN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER, AND IT LISTS OUT BRANDS AND HOW FREQUENTLY THEY ARE CO TENANT WITH THEM. YOU KNOW, THIS IS A LIST OF A MIXTURE OF FOOD GROCERY IN PHARMACY. YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE KIND OF THE THREE ASPECTS THAT I THINK MOST THE PUBLIC WOULD WHICH SAY THAT WE'RE LACKING WOULD BE AT THE TOP OF OUR. LIST TO GO AFTER AND THAT KIND OF SHAPES OUR TRAJECTORY FOR THE NEXT 12 MONTHS LOOKING AT WHO WERE GOING TO RECRUIT, UM, TRY TO GIVE SITE VISITS THE TOWN CONNECT THEM WITH LOCAL PROPERTY OWNERS TO GET A NEW LOCATION BROUGHT TO TOWN. AND THEN THIS IS, UH, A SIMILAR ASPECT WHERE YOU LOOK AT, INCLUDING A POTENTIAL GROCERY AND HOW THE LIST CHANGES A LITTLE BIT, BUT AGAIN, OUR TOP PRIORITIES WELL, OUR OUR TOP NEEDS OF THE DATA KIND OF SPITS OUT THAT IT'S GROCERY, PHARMACY AND FOOD THAT ARE THE BIGGEST NEEDS HERE IN TOWN, WHICH WILL BE OUR PRIMARY FOCUS. THEN AGAIN, THAT'S THE LIST OF THE OR THE LINK OF THE VERY BOTTOM TAKES YOU TO THE INTERACTIVE WEBSITE THAT HOSTS ALL OF OUR SUITE OF DATA. I THINK WE'VE GOT A HANDFUL OF REPORTS FOR MULTIPLE PAGES TO MAYBE PUT YOU SOME LIGHT READING FOR YOU GO TO SLEEP AT NIGHT. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DIG INTO THE NUMBERS, BUT IT HIGHLIGHTS THE LEAKAGE, THE OPPORTUNITY AND THE MARKETING COMPONENTS THAT WE'RE USING TO BRING, HOPEFULLY BRING THE BRANDS OF TOWN. DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? COUNCILMAN DOWLING.

WE ASKED WELL, LET, UM COUNCILMAN STONE. YES, I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU, MR PARKER FOR COMING DOWN. AND, UH, UNFORTUNATELY, I'M NOT THERE TO SHAKE YOUR HAND. UH BUT DEFINITELY I APPRECIATE IT AND THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT SUCH A SMOOTH UM PRESENTATION. YOU KNOW AS FAST AND SWEET. AND AS YOU COULD SEE, BASICALLY, WE'RE MISSING THE WHOLE LOT HERE IN INDIAN TOWN THAT WERE QUALIFIED TO GET. BUT YOU KNOW OTHER PEOPLE THEY DISAGREE. SO THIS IS THE PROOF IN THE PUDDING. BASICALLY YEAH. YEAH. THIS IS THE FIRST COMPONENT. ALL THESE

[00:40:02]

UM ONCE WE GOT ELECTED IN MAY, SO, UM, BUT, YOU KNOW, I'M EXCITED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE FIRST, WHEN, WHEN I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE PRESENTATION THERE ARE SO, UM. SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY HERE FOR INDIAN TOWN, AND, UM I KIND OF SECOND. THE, UM. ON STONE'S COMMENTS BECAUSE WE HAD PEOPLE WE HAD, YOU KNOW, FOLKS FROM AROUND THE COMMUNITY THAT ONE DIDN'T HAVE THIS DATA, BUT THEN TWO SAID THAT WE DIDN'T NEED THE DATA. AND SO, UM, THIS HAS REALLY GIVEN US A NICE SNAPSHOT.

Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Financial Audit Presentation by Mauldin & Jenkins

[01:05:10]

FINANCIAL AUDIT PRESENTATION BY MALDON AND JENKINS. THERE ARE OUR CPA FIRM THAT WAS RETAINED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL, AS REQUIRED BY OUR CHARTER. YOU REQUIRED TO DO AN INDEPENDENT ANNUAL AUDIT EACH YEAR. ON ALL FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS OF THE VILLAGE. THE VILLAGE RETAINED MALDON JENKINS. I GUESS THIS IS THEIR THIRD YEAR NOW. YES, SIR. THIRD YEAR, THAT'S RIGHT. SO THIS IS THEIR THIRD YEAR WITH US, AND, UM, I HAVE MR. DANIEL ANDERSON WITH WHO'S A CPA WITH MALDON JENKINS STILL WALK US THROUGH THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT. GO AHEAD, DANIEL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR VILLAGE MANAGER. UH MADAM MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS DANIEL ANDERSON. I'M A DIRECTOR WITH MALDON AND JENKINS WITH RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE VILLAGES FISCAL YEAR IN 2020 AUDIT. HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE A COUPLE ITEMS IN YOUR AGENDA. PACKET ONE WOULD BE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THEMSELVES. THE OTHER IS A SEPARATE DOCUMENT THAT WE REFER TO AS THE AUDITORS. DISCUSSION ANALYSIS THIS PROVIDES ARE REQUIRED COMMUNICATIONS UNDER GOVERNMENTAL AUDITING STANDARDS TO YOU AND A WRITTEN FORMAT.

HAVE A PRESENTATION HERE THIS EVENING. THAT'S HOPEFULLY PRETTY BRIEF. THAT REALLY SUMMARIZES THAT AUDITORS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS AT THE END, OR IF DURING THE PRESENTATION, YOU HAVE ANY DON'T BE HESITANT TO SHOUT AND LET ME KNOW. BRIEFLY SOME INFORMATION ABOUT MARTIN AND JENKINS. WE ARE A LARGE REGIONAL AUDIT ORGANIZATION WITH NINE OFFICES THROUGHOUT THE SOUTHEAST. THIS INCLUDES TWO OFFICES IN FLORIDA. YOUR AUDIT WAS PERFORMED FROM OUR BRADENTON, FLORIDA OFFICE LOCATION. OUR GOVERNMENTAL PRACTICE SERVES OVER 550 GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES WITHIN THE SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES. THIS INCLUDES OVER 130 MUNICIPALITIES. UM. SUCH AS THE VILLAGE AS WELL, SO CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT WE'RE PROUD OF THE LAST BULLET POINT THAT YOU'LL SEE ON THAT SLIDE IS ALSO SOMETHING THAT WE'RE PROUD OF. JOEL BLACK IS A FORMER GOVERNMENTAL PARTNER OF OURS. HE WAS APPOINTED AS THE CHAIR OF THE GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD. I GUESS ABOUT A YEAR AGO NOW. SO WE'RE CERTAINLY PROUD OF THE FACT THAT THE STANDARD SETTING BODY FOR ALL OF GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING IN THE UNITED STATES CHOSE SOMEONE FROM OUR FIRM TO LEAD THEIR ENTITY FOR SEVEN YEARS, SO HE'S GOT SIX MORE YEARS LEFT ON HIS TERM. WITHIN THE AUDIT DOCUMENT. I'LL GO THROUGH SEVERAL REPORTS THAT YOU'LL FIND THE FIRST ONE IS THE MAIN REPORT, AND THAT'S OBVIOUSLY ARE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT. WE HAVE ISSUED AN UNMODIFIED OPINION, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF ASSURANCE THAT WE CAN RENDER. THEREFORE, THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE FREE OF MATERIAL MISSTATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30 2020. WITHIN THE BACK OF THE REPORT. THERE ARE FOUR ADDITIONAL REPORTS THAT YOU'LL NOTE THAT I'LL GO THROUGH HERE. THE FIRST FILM WE REFERRED TO AS THE YELLOW BOOK REPORT, AND THIS IS A REPORT THAT. GOES OVER OUR TESTS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS AND COMPLIANCE OF LAWS AND REGULATIONS THAT THE VILLAGE HAD. THIS IS A NEGATIVE ASSURANCE REPORTS, SO THERE'S ONLY SOMETHING IDENTIFIED THERE. IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WE NOTED IN OUR AUDIT PROCEDURES. THERE WAS ONE FINDING NOTED IN REGARDS TO THE AUDIT, WHICH I'LL GO OVER IN A FEW MINUTES HERE. UM BUT ASIDE FROM THAT EVERYTHING ELSE WAS VERY GOOD WITHIN THE VILLAGES, RECORDS. THE SECOND REPORT, YOU'LL SEE MAY BE NEW TO YOU, OBVIOUSLY AS A NEWER VILLAGE, WHICH IS A SINGLE AUDIT REPORT. THIS IS ONLY REQUIRED IF THE VILLAGE EXPENDS MORE THAN $750,000 IN FEDERAL OR STATE AWARDS. WITH THE ACQUISITION OF THE KNEE WATER FACILITY. THERE WAS ACTUALLY TWO SINGLE AUDITS, ONE FEDERAL AND ONE STATE SINGLE AUDIT THAT WERE PERFORMED, SO WE DID PERFORM COMPLIANCE TESTING ON MAKING SURE THAT THE VILLAGE WAS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THAT THOSE GRANT AGREEMENTS. THERE WERE NO ISSUES NOTED WITHIN THAT SINGLE AUDIT, OR BOTH OF THOSE SINGLE AUDITS THAT WERE PERFORMED. THE NEXT REPORT IS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS MANAGEMENT LETTER AND THIS IS REQUIRED BY THE AUDITOR GENERAL'S OFFICE. THIS REALLY GOES OVER THE TO ENSURE THAT THE VILLAGES IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL THERE WERE NO SIGNIFICANT ISSUES NOTED WITHIN THIS REPORT. AND THEN THE LAST REPORT IS A NEWER REPORT AS WELL. IT'S WHAT WE REFER TO AS AN INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS REPORT AND A FEW YEARS AGO THIS WAS REQUIRED UNDER ATTESTATION STANDARDS THAT WE PERFORM AN EXAMINATION OF THE VILLAGES COMPLIANCE REGARDING THE INVESTMENT OF PUBLIC FUNDS. THERE WERE NO ISSUES NOTED. WITHIN THIS REPORT. GOING THROUGH THOSE REQUIRED COMMUNICATIONS THAT I MENTIONED FIRST. ULTIMATELY, MANAGEMENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES OF THE VILLAGE. AND PERFORMING OUR AUDIT. WE ENCOUNTERED NO DIFFICULTIES WITH MANAGEMENT.

WE'RE AUDIT ADJUSTMENTS PREPARED AND PROPOSED TO MANAGEMENT THAT WERE POSTED TO THE VILLAGE'S RECORDS. THERE WERE NO UNCORRECTED MISSTATEMENTS, WHERE WE PROPOSE AN AUDIT ADJUSTMENT AND MANAGEMENT ELECTED NOT TO MAKE THAT ADJUSTMENT. WE HAD NO DISAGREEMENTS WITH MANAGEMENT OVER THE APPLICATION OF ANY ACCOUNTING POLICIES OR PROCEDURES. AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE AUDIT. WE OBTAINED WRITTEN REPRESENTATION FROM MANAGEMENT REGARDING THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION THAT THEY PROVIDED TO US. WE'RE NOT AWARE OF MANAGEMENT'S CONSULTATION WITH OTHER ACCOUNTANT THERE WERE NO SIGNIFICANT ISSUES DISCUSSED WITH MANAGEMENT TO BRING YOUR ATTENTION AND THEN MALVINA JENKINS IS INDEPENDENT WITH RESPECT TO THE VILLAGE. DID MENTION ONE FINDING THAT WAS

[01:10:02]

AND THIS ACTUALLY WAS A GOOD ADJUSTMENT FOR THE VILLAGE BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY INCREASED ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUE AND THEN ULTIMATELY, NET POSITION OR FUND BALANCE WITHIN THE GENERAL FUND. BUT IT WAS A MATERIAL AUDIT ADJUSTMENT THAT WAS REQUIRED RELATING TO THE TIMING OF WHEN CERTAIN REVENUES WERE RECEIVED. AND BECAUSE IT WAS A MATERIAL ADJUSTMENT IS REQUIRED TO BE REPORTED AS A FINDING. THIS IS ALSO SOMETHING THAT WE'VE DISCUSSED WITH MANAGEMENT AND WE HAVE NO ISSUES OR CONCERNS THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE A FUTURE FINDING GOING FORWARD IN FUTURE YEARS. ALSO JUST WITHIN THE AUDITORS, DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. WE DO HAVE ONE RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING CYBER ATTACKS. CERTAINLY I T SECURITY IS A VERY HOT TOPIC, UH, WITH GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AND YOU KNOW, THIS IS JUST A RECOMMENDATION THAT WE'VE BEEN PUTTING IN ALL OF OUR GOVERNMENTAL AUDIT, SO IT'S NOT SOMETHING SPECIFIC TO THE VILLAGE ITSELF. BUT WE DID NOTE THAT A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE CITY OF OLDSMAR OVER NEAR TAMPA, ACTUALLY SUFFERED A POTENTIAL CYBER ATTACK TO ITS WATER UTILITY SYSTEM. YOU KNOW MOST OF THE CYBER ATTACKS THAT YOU HEAR IN THE NEWS OR FINANCIAL RELATED WHERE THEY'RE TRYING TO HAVE YOU MAKE PAYMENTS TO FICTITIOUS VENDORS, OR THEY'RE TRYING TO SEIZE CONTROL OF YOUR FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE. THIS WAS ACTUALLY AN ATTACK ON THE WATER SYSTEM IN THE WATER QUALITY, SO CERTAINLY AS IT'S A NEW ITEM. YOU KNOW, WE ALWAYS WANT YOU TO BE COGNIZANT AND EVALUATING YOUR INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER I THI POLICIES AND PROCEDURES AND THAT'S REALLY ALL THAT RECOMMENDATION IS FOR. THIS NEXT SLIDE HERE IS REALLY SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW OVER. TIME WILL BE A BETTER SLIDE TO GIVE YOU AN INDICATION OF JUST WHERE THE FUND BALANCE WITHIN THE VILLAGES GENERAL FUND IS TRENDING OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. CERTAINLY BECAUSE YOU'RE NEWER VILLAGE. THERE IS SOME SKEWS TO THIS GRAPH, BUT I DID FEEL THAT SINCE YOU DO HAVE THREE YEARS OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION, IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO START PUTTING THIS SLIDE WITHIN THIS PRESENTATION JUST SO WE CAN START TRACKING. WHERE THE VILLAGES ENDING FUND BALANCE IN THE GENERAL FUND IS AT THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR.

I'LL SAY THAT AT THE END OF FISCAL YEAR 2020 YOU DID HAVE APPROXIMATELY 6 50% OF THE 2020 GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES AND FUND BALANCE. AND 60% OF THE 2021 BUDGETED EXPENDITURES WITHIN FUND BALANCE, SO THAT'S CERTAINLY A STRONG FUND BALANCE POSITION FOR THE VILLAGE TO HAVE AT THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR. THAT'S ALL THE. PRESENTATION THAT I HAVE FOR YOU THIS EVENING. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE ABOUT THE PRESENTATION, THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THEMSELVES OR THE AUDITORS, DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. IF NOT, MAY. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE. MOVE FOR FILE AND A PROVEN FILE RECEIVING FILE RECEIVING FILE.

THANK YOU. DO I HAVE A SECOND? SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER GIVES THOMAS THANK YOU ANY DISCUSSION BY THE COUNCIL. JUST LIKE TO THANK THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE. GOOD NEWS. YES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. IT'S BEEN I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE THE VILLAGE AND THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME COME PRESENT YOU THIS EVENING ANY ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? NO MATTER MARY BROKE ALL PLEASE COUNCIL MEMBER DOWNING. COUNCIL MEMBER GIVES THOMAS I COUNCIL MEMBER STONE. YES, TWICE, MAYOR CLARKE. YES, MAYOR HERNANDEZ. YES. THANK YOU, DANIEL. THANK YOU.

IF ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC, INCLUDING THE APPLICANT IS GOING TO BE PROVIDING ANY TESTIMONY, PLEASE STAND RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. I SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH INTRODUCED. THINK ABOUT THE TRUTH IS WHERE I TOLD YOU. SO HELP ME GOD. THANK YOU. SO, YEAH. OKAY.

HE'S PULLING IT UP NOW, ERIN, OKAY? OKAY. DARREN, CAN YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE? OKAY WE HAVE THREE APPLICATIONS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT FOR TRACTOR SUPPLY STORE. ONE OF THEM IS ITEM NINE ON THE AGENDA, WHICH

[01:20:05]

THERE ARE FOUR APPLICATIONS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN APPROVED BY THE PLANNING, ZONING AND APPEALS BOARD ON THE WAY THAT THE CODE IS SET UP. UM THE PLANE AND ZONING, AN APPEALS BOARD HAS THE AUTHORITY TO APPROVE CERTAIN TYPES OF APPLICATIONS IN THE VILLAGE COUNCIL HAS THE AUTHORITY TO PROVE OTHER TYPES OF APPLICATIONS. SO THE FOUR APPLICATIONS ARE A SPECIAL EXCEPTION. APPLICATION TO PERMIT OUTDOOR MERCHANDISE DISPLAYS LARGER IN AREA THAN THE FOOTPRINT OF THE PRINCIPAL BUILDING. WHICH IS JUST TO SAY THERE'S MORE. OUTSIDE DISPLAY AREA THAN THERE IS BUILDING AREA. AND THEN THREE VARIANTS IS ONE OF THEM PERTAIN TO THE. UH X THE DEPTHS OF THE AWNINGS FACING 7 10, WHERE THEY'RE REQUIRED TO BE EIGHT FT, BUT, UH, SITE CONSTRAINTS LIMITED THEM TO FOUR. FT. UH A VERY DENSE TO ALLOW LIGHTING LEVELS TO EXCEED THE MAXIMUM CODE ALLOWANCE ON TWO AREAS OF THE PROPERTY. AND NUMBER FOUR, A VARIANCE TO EXCEED THE PERMITTED LENGTH OF SIDEWALK DISPLAY AREA. ESSENTIALLY THE CODE LIMITS SIDEWALK DISPLAY AREA TO 40 FT. ON EITHER SIDE OF THE MAIN ENTRANCE AND. IN THIS CASE, THE ENTIRE BUILDING, UH, THE ENTIRE MAIN FACADE OF THE BUILDING FACING THE PARKING LOT IS GOING TO BE, UH, LINED WITH DISPLAY AREA. ALL OF THESE APPLICATIONS WERE REVIEWED BY THE TASK. YOU'RE PLAYING CONSULTANTS BY PUBLIC WORKS, UH, UTILITIES, THE COUNTY FIRE MARSHAL, UH, AND YOUR TRAFFIC ENGINEERING CONSULTANT. IN ADDITION, THE APPLICANT MET WITH SOME INDIAN WOULD COMMUNITY RESIDENTS YESTERDAY.

NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS IS AN OVERVIEW OF THE SITE. THE. LARGER SITE THAT'S SHOWN AS A WOODED AREA WITH THE DASH LINES IS THE PLATTE AND, UH, ABOUT A 35 ACRE PLATT AND THE SOLID LINE WITH AN. IS THE TRACTOR SUPPLY SITE WITHIN THAT PLAT. SO WHAT THIS FLAT DOES IS IT ESSENTIALLY CREATES TWO PARCELS AND A AND B AND TRACTOR SUPPLY IS A UM. ATTRACTIVE SUPPLY SITE IS JUST UNDER FOUR ACRES AND. THE CLOSEST BOUNDARY OF THE PROPERTY IS 150 FT. TO THE NEAREST INDIAN WOULD RESIDENT PROPERTY LINE. SO THAT'S 150 FT OF CURRENTLY WOODED AREA. UM.

THE PROPERTY IS THE PROPERTY IS ALSO 550 FT. FROM INDIAN WOULD DRIVE. SO FOR THOSE RESIDENTS, I UNDERSTAND THAT SOME RESIDENTS, UM. DON'T NECESSARILY LOOK AT A GRAPHIC LIKE THIS AND RELATE TO IT AND DON'T NECESSARILY KNOW WHAT 550 FT REALLY MEANS. BUT IF YOU WERE TO BE IN YOUR CAR AND MAKE A RIGHT TURN ON WAR FEEL BOULEVARD FROM INDIAN WOULD DRIVE. AND YOU COUNT ONE MISSISSIPPI TWO MISSISSIPPI YOU GET TO ABOUT 10, MISSISSIPPI BEFORE YOU REACHED THE TRACTOR SUPPLY SITE. I WILL NOTE THAT THE 150 FT STRAP BETWEEN THE TRACTOR SUPPLY SITE AND THE INDIAN WOULD COMMUNITY IS CURRENTLY WOODED. BUT. IT IS NOT RESTRICTED IN ANY WAY. UM UH SO THAT IT SO IT CAN BE DEVELOPED IN THE FUTURE, BUT IT IS NOT PART OF THE TRACTOR SUPPLY SITE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SHOWS THE ZONING AND THE LAND USE DESIGNATIONS OF THE PROPERTY AND THE ZONING HIS VILLAGE MIXED USE. ALL OF THE AREA BETWEEN 7 10 AND THE INWARD GOLF AND COUNTRY CLUB, EXTENDING FROM INDIAN WOULD DRIVE ALL THE WAY TO ALLAH POWDER ROAD. IS ZONE. UH VILLAGE MAKES JUICE AND WITH VILLAGE MIXED USE ALLOWS IS A VARIETY OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. APARTMENTS OR COMBINATIONS OF BUSINESSES AND APARTMENTS. SO ALL THIS AREA IS WOODED. NOW IT IS PRIVATE PROPERTY AND IT CAN BE DEVELOPED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL OF THE VILLAGES, LAWS, THE COUNTIES AND. ALL OTHER REGULATIONS THAT ARE APPLICABLE. MM. NEXT CHELSEA IS

[01:25:08]

THAT'S WHERE ALONG THAT FACADE, YOU'LL SEE OUTDOOR, THE SIDEWALK DISPLAY RUNNING THE LENGTH OF THE BUILDING AND THEN BEYOND THE BUILDING AS YOU GO TO THE TOP OF THE TRYING. ON THE VERY LEFT SIDE OF THE SITE, THE VERY LEFT SIDE OF THE DRAWING. UH BETWEEN THE PROPERTY LINE AND THE PARKING STALLS IS A PERMANENT TRAILER AND EQUIPMENT DISPLAY AREA THAT WILL ALSO BE OUTDOORS. AT THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE SITE. 22 FT FROM THE PROPERTY LINE IN 100 FT. FROM STATE ROAD, 7 10 WILL BE AN EIGHT FT MONUMENT SIGN. DELIVERY TRUCKS WILL ENTER THE SITE TAKE THE FRONTAGE DRIVE THAT RUNS PARALLEL TO 7 10 IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. AND LOOP AROUND TO THE, UH. THE EAST SIDE OF THE SITE, WHICH IS THE RIGHT SIDE, AND THAT'S WHERE THE LOADING AREA AS AND THEN THEY CAN CONTINUE OUT IN, UH, IN A SINGLE MOTION THROUGH THE DRIVEWAY THAT LOOPS AROUND THE NORTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING.

YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE, UH, ON THE LOWER RIGHT AND THE LOWER LEFT SIDE, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE DRIVEWAYS EXTEND ALMOST TO THE PROPERTY LINE, AND THOSE ARE STUBS. SO THAT WHEN SITES TO EITHER SIDE OF THIS ONE ARE DEVELOPED, SOMEBODY CAN DRIVE IN BETWEEN THE SITES WITHOUT EVER HAVING TO GET BACK ON STATE ROAD. 7 10 THAT JUST PRESERVES THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC ON 7 10. NEXT SITE OF NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS IS THE BACK PORTION OF THE SAY, UM, YOU SEE THE VERY. EDGE OF THE BUILDING ON THE BOTTOM THERE AND THE DARKER COLLAR. UM. THE SPECKLED AREA IS THIS IS 16,700 ONES FOR GARDEN CENTER. YOU CAN SEE THERE'S A PATH RUNNING SIDE TO

[01:30:10]

CHOOSE AND EITHER A MEDITERRANEAN REVIVAL STYLE WHICH IS TO MOVE THE MORE SPANISH LOOK OR THE OLD FLORIDA LUCK AND TRACTOR SUPPLY, CHOSE THE OLD FLORIDA LUCK. AND PART OF THE SOME OF THE COMPONENTS OF THAT ARCHITECTURE ARE METAL ROOF. UM SOME OUT SOME SOME, UH, ARTICULATION, SO IT'S NOT JUST ONE FLAT ROOF LINES. SO YOU SEE THAT THERE'S A. SORT OF A TARGET OVER THE ENTRANCE, AND THEY DO SOMETHING SIMILAR ON THE FAKE ENTRANCE FACING 7 10.

USING LIGHT PASTEL COLORS ON WHITE ACCENTS WITH YELLOW YELLOW PASTEL BUILDINGS ARE VERY COMMON KIND OF THE CLASSIC FLORIDA VERNACULAR. LOOK UM, CITING IS TRADITIONALLY A PART OF THAT. THIS IS A METAL BUILDING. UM AND THEY THEY'RE DOING SOME, UH, SOME TREATMENT OVER THE MEDAL TO DISGUISE THE SKIN OF THE BUILDING. THERE'S A ESPECIALLY IT'S AN ENGINEERED MATERIAL AND YOU CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE. BASICALLY WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT FROM OUTSIDE, AND WHAT THEY'VE DONE IS THEY'VE PUT SOME FAUX SITES OF SCORING IN THAT MATERIAL TO SIMULATE SIGHTING IN CERTAIN AREAS OF THE BUILDING. THE OTHER BIG FEATURE OF THIS ARCHITECTURAL STYLE ARE GENEROUS OVERHANGS FOR SHADE AND PARTICULARLY METAL AWNINGS. AND SO YOU SEE A LOT OF METAL AWNINGS SUPPORTED BY COLUMNS AND YOU'LL NOTICE THERE'S A DECORATIVE LIGHT POST. IN THE RIGHT CORNER OF THE RIGHT RENDERING AND THAT'S AGAIN INTENDED TO TIE INTO THE

[01:35:02]

THAT'S THE MONUMENT SIGN. IT'S EIGHT FT HIGH AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN INCORPORATES FEATURES OF THE BUILDINGS ARCHITECTURE TO TIE IT TOGETHER INTO A NICE, COHERENT PACKAGE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS RENDERING ON THE LEFT IS WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE FROM THE DRIVEWAY ENTRANCE OFF OF 7 10, THE LARGE GRASS AREA IN BETWEEN THE SITE AND THE ROAD WOULD WOULD BE AS WELL AND THE EXISTING CANAL. AND THEN THE RENDERING ON THE RIGHT IS THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE CORNER THERE AND LET'S SEE FENCE. UH SCREENING THE AIR CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT, AND THEN THE LOADING AREA WOULD BE BEYOND THAT. 7 10 WOULD BE BEHIND YOU AS THE VIEWER OF THAT IF YOU WERE STANDING THERE, AND THE DRY RETENTION AREA WOULD BE TO YOUR RIGHT. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS IS THE LANDSCAPE PLAN. UM THIS SITE IS SUBSTANTIALLY WOULD IT RIGHT NOW? THE SITE PLAN DOES PROPOSE REMOVAL OF 72 HEALTHY OAK TREES AND 184 HEALTHY PINE TREES. VILLAGE CODE AUTHORIZES REMOVAL OF TREES AS NEEDED TO PERMIT SITE DEVELOPMENT. THE SITE PLANE IS PROPOSING NEW TREES AS PART OF ITS LANDSCAPE PLAN. UH ANY QUANTITY THAT WELL EXCEEDS THE CODE REQUIREMENT, AND IT PROPOSES TRACTOR SUPPLY IS PROPOSING TO MITIGATE. LOSS OF TREE CANOPY WITH A CONTRIBUTION TO THE VILLAGES TREE FUND FOR USE TOWARD OFFSITE LANDSCAPING. SINCE THE TRACTOR SUPPLY SITE DOES NOT ABOUT THE INDIAN WOULD GOLF AND COUNTRY CLUB. THERE IS 150 FT WIDE STRIP OF EXISTING FOREST THAT WILL NOT BE DEVELOPED AS PART OF THIS SITE. UM AGAIN. IT IS NOT. THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS NOT INDICATED ANY INTENT TO PRESERVE IT AS A BUFFER. UM UH SO IT MAY OR MAY NOT BE DEVELOPED AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. AND FINALLY, THESE ARE THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL, AS RECOMMENDED BY, UH BY YOUR STAFF AND THE PLANNING ZONING APPEALS BOARD. UH, NUMBER ONE AT THE PLANS ASSOCIATED WITH HIS APPROVAL BE SUBSTANTIALLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE SUBMITTED FOR THE HEARING. UM NUMBER TWO THAT DECORATIVE OUTDOOR LIGHTING FIXTURES CONSISTENT WITH STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS SHALL BE UTILIZED IN THE BAY FEEL YOU.

SYRIA'S TO INTEGRATE THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN ELEMENTS REQUIRED IN THE CODE AND AT THE PHOTO METRIC PLANS ON THE PLANS SHOWING THE LOCATIONS OF LIGHT POLES WILL BE REVISED ACCORDINGLY. NUMBER THREE THAT THERE'S AN EXTERNAL SPEAKER ON THE WEST FACADE OF THE BUILDING THAT NOTIFIES CUSTOMERS WHEN THEIR ITEMS ARE READY TO BE PICKED UP IN THAT DRIVE FOR AREA BEHIND THE BUILDING. UM, AND THE CONDITION STATES THAT THAT SPEAKER WILL ONLY BE UTILIZED TO ALERT CUSTOMERS OF THE STATUS, PICK UP BORDERS AND SHALL NOT BE HURT BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES OF THE SAME. NUMBER FOUR THAT THE APPLE CAN PROVIDE A PAYMENT AT $33,087. TOWARD THE VILLAGES TREE FUND FOR MITIGATING THE REMOVAL OF 2600 AND 47 NET INCHES. I'VE TREES AT DIAMETER BREAST TYPE AT A RATE OF $12.50 PER INCH IN ONE LUMP SUM PRIOR TO THE ISSUANCE OF ANY DEVELOPMENT PERMIT AND AGAIN, THIS WAS VOLUNTARY ON THE PART OF THE APPLICANT. IT'S NOT A CODE REQUIREMENT. IF NUMBER FIVE THAT THE PROPOSED WALL SIGNS BE REDUCED IN SIZE TO 60 SQUARE FEET EACH RIGHT NOW. HAVE SHOWN. I THINK THEY'RE CLOSER TO 90 TO COMPLY WITH THE SCIENCE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CODE, AND ON THE RECORD, IT'S NOT IN THE REPORT OF THE BACKUP, BUT ON THE RECORD, I WANT TO ADD A SIX CONDITION THAT STAFF IS RECOMMENDING. DUE TO THE. THE, UH SHATTER ABOUT A POTENTIAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE, UH, EITHER ON THE TRACTOR SUPPLY PROPERTY OR BEHIND IT IN THAT WOODED AREA. UM THE APPLICANT IS ALREADY INDICATED TO THE RESIDENTS OF THE INDIAN WOULD COUNTRY CLUB NEIGHBORHOOD THAT THEY ARE GOING TO RETAIN

[01:40:05]

YEAH. NEXT, PLEASE. YES SO THE CONDITIONAL USE APPLICATION THAT WAS SUBMITTED IS NEEDED TO DISPLAY AND SELL VEHICLES. SUCH AN ATV, UTV S AND THEIR BIKES. IS CONDITIONAL USE WILL ALLOW THE SITE TO INCLUDE A 3000 SQUARE FOOT PERMANENT TRAILER AND EQUIPMENT DISPLAY AREA MENTIONED BY JEFF PRIOR. WHICH IS ALONG THE WESTERN PROPERTY LINE, AS YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE ARROW HITS IN THIS DEPICTION SITE PLAN DETAIL OVER HERE. MHM. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THE PLANNING AND ZONING AND APPEALS BOARD AS WELL AS THE VILLAGE STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE CONDITIONAL USE APPLICATION WITH THE VOLUME CONDITIONS. ONE THAT THE APPLICANT OBTAINS THE PROPER DEALER LICENSES FROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAY SAFETY AND MOTOR VEHICLES. TO THAT THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT. DOES NOT RUN WITH THE LAND AND APPLIES ONLY TO THE USE OF THE PROPERTY BY THE TRACTOR SUPPLY COMPANY RETAIL STORE. THREE. THE USE SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CODE. AS MODIFIED FOR THE PROPOSED USED AS FOLLOWS. A ALL DISPLAY SHALL BE LOCATED ON PAVEMENT IN THE LOCATION SHOWS AND ONLY PROVES I PLAN BE NO OUTDOOR PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM SHALL BE PERMITTED, WHICH CAN BE HEARD BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES OF THE PROPERTY. SO THAT FALLS WITH THE CONDITION OF THE MAJOR SITE PLAN AS WELL. OKAY SEE SERVICE AND REPAIR ACTIVITIES SHALL OPERATE DURING REGULAR BUSINESS HOURS. NO EARLIER THAN SEVEN A.M. AND NO LATER THAN EIGHT P.M. AND D SERVICE AND REPAIR ACTIVITIES ARE NOT PERMITTED OUTDOORS FIRST. SO IN SUMMARY STAFF FINDS THAT THE PLAT THE MAJOR SITE PLAN, AND CONDITIONAL USE REQUESTS, UM FOR THE PROPOSED TRACTOR SUPPLY STORE TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ZONING DISTRICT AND GENERALLY CONSISTENT WITH THE INTENT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AND THEREFORE STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE PLATTE APPLICATION MAJOR SITE PLAN APPLICATION AND THE CONDITIONAL USE APPLICATION WITH CONDITIONS AS APPLICABLE. AND THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION.

THERE ANY QUESTIONS? I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SAY THAT YOU KNOW THE APPLICANT IS VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO BE A PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY, AN INDIAN TOWN AND. WE LOOK FORWARD TO A FAVORABLE DECISION FROM THE COUNCIL TODAY.

UM I'D LIKE TO NOTE FOR THE RECORD THE WE HAD THE APPLICANT HAVE SOME QUESTIONS REGARDING SOME OF THE CONDITIONS WE'D LIKE TO UM, DISCUSS DURING THE HEARING TODAY. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TIME THAT THAT WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE TIME TO DISCUSS, BUT I'D LIKE TO NOTE FOR THE RECORD SO THAT IT'S TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN THE TIME COMES. MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY.

YEAH. WHICH UNDER WHICH CONDITIONS IN PARTICULAR THAT YOU WANT TO DISCUSS? YES, OF COURSE. IF THERE ARE THINGS WE CAN SORT OUT RIGHT NOW, UM, BEFORE THE COUNCIL MEMBERS DIVE IN THAT MAYBE GRANTS, OF COURSE. THE CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. SO THE FIRST ONE I HAVE A QUESTION ON HIS ON THE PLATTE. UM CONDITION NUMBER THREE. AS A CONDITION NUMBER THREE. YES.

I THINK IT IS BECAUSE YES, SLIDE THREE IS GOOD. YES, I THINK IT IS TOWARDS MHM. YEAH. SHOULD BE SLIDE. SEVEN. GO BACK ONE. YOU PASSED IT. YES. THAT'S IT. SO

[01:50:22]

OKAY, I JUST WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT WASN'T IN REGARDS TO THE, UH. RIGHT AWAY WORK THAT'S BEING DONE FOR THE SIDEWALK AND ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS ALSO. IS THAT THAT WAS ON THE, UM SO THE YEAH, TO THE EXTENT THAT THAT YOU HAVE TO, UH, FUND FOR THAT, UM. WOULD THINK F BOT WOULD REQUIRE THAT CORRECT. I'M NOT SURE. OKAY? YES I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE WEREN'T DOUBLING UP. IT. YEAH YEAH, WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT DOUBLE UP. YEAH, THIS IS NOT. THIS IS JUST TO BOND AGAINST ANY IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE REQUIRED BY THE VILLAGE WITH REGARD TO ENSURE THEIR THEIR ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. UM THE NEXT CONDITION.

IT'S NOT SO MUCH NOT SO MUCH A QUESTION, BUT UH, ARGUMENT WE'D LIKE TO POST TO THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER IS THE UM ON THE SITE PLAN. THE CONDITION NUMBER TWO REGARDING THE LIGHTING. WORD.

MM HMM. SHOULD BE SLIDE 16.

SO REGARDING THE HMM. YOU JUST PASSED IT. THAT WAS IT? YES SO THIS CONDITION REGARDED IN LIGHTING. IT'S ESSENTIALLY ASKING FOR A SPECIFIC TYPE OF.

LIGHT FIXTURE AND A CERTAIN STYLE TO BE USED, AND WE WENT BACK AND FORTH WITH STAFF ON THIS BECAUSE THE THESE TYPE OF LIGHTS THAT ARE RECOMMENDED ARE. IN MY EXPERIENCE ARE NOT A PRACTICAL, UH, USED OR INTENDED USE FOR PARKING LOT AREAS OR VEHICULAR USE AREAS AND UNDERSTAND STAFF HAS TO FOLLOW THE CODE. BUT WE EVEN WENT AS FAR AS SPEAKING WITH THE, UM.

MANUFACTURER OF THESE LIGHTS, AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE INTENDED USE WAS MOSTLY FOR PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS. AND BUT YOU KNOW, SIDEWALK ALONG THE ROADSIDE, UM. SO I WOULD LIKE FOR THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER THE REMOVAL OF THIS CONDITION DUE TO ONE THE PRACTICAL USE OF THESE LIGHTS. UM. AGAIN IN MY EXPERIENCE. I'VE I'VE I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR ABOUT. 8 TO 10, YOU KNOW, YEARS IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE. THE COUNTRY NOW, AND I'VE NEVER SEEN A CONDITION LIKE THIS. MOST OF THE TIMES THEY REQUIRE THESE LIGHTS TO BE SURROUNDING THE BUILDING OR PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS, NOT IN THE PARKING LOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE LIKE THIS. UM. AND BESIDES THAT, THE ECONOMIC IMPACT IT HAS ON THE ON THE FEASIBILITY OF THE PROJECT. IT'S A VERY CONSIDERABLE ONE. UM IN MY EXPERIENCE, THESE TYPE OF LIGHTS ALSO REQUIRE ABOUT TWICE THE AMOUNT OF FIXTURES TO BE INSTALLED. AND ON TOP OF THE TWICE THE AMOUNT OF FIXTURES THERE. LOT MORE COSTLY THAN WHAT YOU KNOW. TYPICAL LIGHTS ARE INTENDED FOR PARKING LOTS.

SO I UNDERSTAND ALSO THAT THE CODE IS RELATIVELY NEW AS IMPLEMENTED IN THE VILLAGE AND.

YOU KNOW THEY'RE MOST LIKELY THERE ARE ITEMS IN THE CODE THAT STILL NEED TO BE. MASSAGED OR HASHED OUT. UM I KNOW WE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH ONE OF THE CONDITIONS IN THE CODE, FOR EXAMPLE, THAT THERE WERE REQUIREMENTS SET THERE FOR THE FINISHED FLOOR ELEVATION OF THE BUILDING. THAT WERE VAGUE OR I GUESS WERE INCORRECT, AND WE MANAGED TO SORT THAT OUT WITH THE VILLAGE ENGINEER BILL ARCHER, BILL, AND, UM. JUST JUST TO POINT THAT OUT THAT,

[01:55:03]

OKAY UH, QUESTION FOR STAFF. THESE LIGHT AND. THEY HAVE TO BE THOSE LIGHTEN AND ALSO.

SECOND PART TO THAT SAME QUESTION. DOES MCDONALD'S AND DOLLAR GENERAL AS WELL AS DUNCAN DON'T HAVE THESE LIFE? COUNSELOR I CAN ANSWER PART OF THAT QUESTION. I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE MCDONALD'S THE DUNKIN DONUTS. UM ALTHOUGH I HAVE AN ANSWER TO THAT, JUST SO YOU CAN RESPOND TO THE OTHER STUFF OFF AND GET THAT. OKAY I DON'T THINK THOSE OTHER THOSE OTHER USES HAVE THIS TYPE OF LIGHTING, BUT I'LL LET CHELSEA ANSWER THAT IF I'M WRONG. UM.

THE, UH THE CODE IS RELATIVELY NEW. SO THOSE OTHER THOSE OTHER AH PROPERTIES COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS THAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO. COUNCIL MEMBER, UM, AREN'T SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS YOU HAVE IN THE CODE TODAY. AND THE REQUIREMENTS ARE NOT SPECIFIC TO, UH SINGLE TYPE OF FIXTURE BY MODEL NUMBER OR SPECIFIC DESIGN. BUT IT REQUIRES THAT THE LIGHTING FIXTURES, UM ARE GENERALLY CONSISTENT WITH THE ARCHITECTURAL STYLE. SO WHAT WE DID, IS WE, UH, COORDINATED WITH ONE OF YOUR OTHER CONSULTANTS KIM LEE HORN. AND THEY HAVE LIGHTING ENGINEERS ON THEIR STAFF, AND THEY FOUND FIXTURES THAT WERE VERY MUCH CONSISTENT WITH THE STYLE OF THE ARCHITECTURE THAT WERE INTENDED TO BE NICER. THAN THE STANDARD PARKING LOT FIXTURES WHICH REALLY KIND OF CLASH WITH THE ARCHITECTURE, BECAUSE THEY'RE SO MODERN AND THE ARCHITECTURE YOU KNOW AS OLD FLORIDA, AND IT WAS THEIR OPINION THAT THERE MIGHT NEED TO BE. TWO, MAYBE THREE EXTRA POLES ADDED TO THE ENTIRE SITE, UH, TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. UM I CAN'T SPEAK EXACTLY AS THE COST. UM AND I CAN ONLY TELL YOU THAT THE APPLICANT HAD AGREED TO DO IT. UM, SO THIS IS NEWS TO US THAT YOU KNOW NOW THEY DON'T WANT TO DO IT. UM I KNOW THEY WEREN'T LOVING THE CONDITION, BUT I HADN'T HEARD BEFORE THAT THEY DIDN'T PLAN ON. ON PURSUING IT, BUT, UM, I CAN'T TELL YOU ANYTHING FURTHER ABOUT THE SPECIFIC FIXTURES AND THE COSTS OF US FIXTURES. UM THERE ARE OTHER PROFESSIONALS WHO HAVE INTIMATE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS STUFF. UM BUT EVERY THE THINGS THAT I'M HEARING FROM THE APPLICANT ARE NOT CONSISTENT WITH WHAT I'VE HEARD, UH, TO DATE OR FROM THE APPLICANT, FOR THAT MATTER. OKAY, SO. AND UH, THIS IS JUST A MESSAGE, I GUESS FROM WHEN WE START DEVELOPING

[02:00:06]

DEFINITELY BECAUSE I KNOW WHEN WE DID COMPLETE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WE KNEW IT WASN'T PERFECT. WE KNOW THIS WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, BUT AT THE SAME TIME ASKING YOU AS THE PROFESSIONAL. IS THIS SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD RECOMMEND? MAYBE TRYING TO WORK WITH THE CLIENT ON. UM I LOOK AT THIS. I WOULD LOOK AT IT THIS WAY. UM WE HAD TO DEFER TO THE LIGHTING ENGINEERS WITH KIM LEE ORANGE BECAUSE THEY ARE YOUR ENGINEERING CONSULTANT. THEY HAVE THE TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE THAT WE DON'T WHEN IT COMES TO HOW FEASIBLE THESE TYPES OF FIXTURES ARE, BUT OUR JOB WAS TO WORK WITH, UH. YOUR OTHER PROFESSIONALS TO SEE HOW THE APPLICANT COULD COMPLY WITH THE CODE, AND WE MADE THOSE SUGGESTIONS AND THAT'S WHAT WE DID. UM I THINK CLEARLY THE DECORATIVE LIGHTING FIXTURES. THEY'RE GOING TO. THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A LONG TERM IMPACT THAT WOULD MAKE INDIAN TOWN A NICER PLACE. UM, BUT AGAIN, IT'S UP TO THE COUNCIL. UM YOU KNOW, THAT'S JUST THE WAY THE CODE READS TODAY. SO IS THIS IS SOMETHING STANDARD IN OTHER CITIES. UM. THERE ARE OTHER PLACES THAT DO REQUIRE IT. BUT I CAN'T. I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT. I THAT I HAVE ANYONE IN PARTICULAR. WHERE I'VE SEEN IT FOR PARKING LOT LIGHTING. UM, I KNOW IT'S OUT THERE, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW COMMON IT IS.

IT'S NOT. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY CODE THAT REQUIRES IT, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW COMMON IT IS AMONG CITIES THAT DO HAVE ARCHITECTURAL THEMES. SO I MEAN, BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE, I WOULD PROBABLY ASK COUNSEL TO AT LEAST CONSIDER MAYBE COMING UP WITH ANOTHER SOLUTION OR ASKING STAFF TO COME UP WITH ANOTHER SOLUTION. OR IF THIS IS THE WAY WE HAVE TO GO, AND THIS IS THE WAY WE HAVE TO GO, BUT I WOULD HATE TO SEE A SITUATION LIKE THIS TURN AWAY AND DEVELOPER BECAUSE OF SOME LIGHTING. YOU KNOW, LET'S TRY TO SEE HOW WE CAN WORK WITH THE DEVELOPER AND MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN. AND IF WE HAVE TO DO IT, WE HAVE TO DO IT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, LET'S TRY SOMETHING. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN STONE. MS ALTHEA, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING I SAY? YEAH. MM. WE'VE WORKED VERY WELL TOGETHER, UM, WORKING THROUGH THE CODE. AS YOU KNOW, IT IS NEW. AND. THIS IS AN ELEMENT THAT WE REALLY WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON, I THINK AND. WHILE STAFF WOULD LIKE TO SEE. WHAT WE'VE ASKED FOR. I AM CONTEMPLATING IT. WE'RE GOING TO MAKE ANY CHANGES. THIS MIGHT BE THE ONE UM. BUT THAT'S ALL I HAD TO SAY. THANK YOU. DOES THE. COUNCIL COUNCILMAN DOWLING. YEAH THANK YOU. SO MUCH FOR YOUR PRESENTATION. UM AND I WANT TO GET YOUR LAST NAME. PANETTA PANERO BONETTO GOT YOU.

THANK YOU, UM. UH I THINK WE'VE GOTTEN THROUGH THE DIFFICULT PART. AND TO ME, I DON'T. JUST

[02:05:03]

YEAH, IT LOOKED LIKE ALPHA HAD A THOUGHT ALONG THESE LINES. YEAH, SO RIGHT NOW, I'M WORKING WITH THE PLANNER, TOO. GET THE RIGHT LANGUAGE. WE DO HAVE A COUPLE OF OTHER. MAJOR DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS IN AND SOME OF THOSE APPLICANTS ARE LOOKING AT. THE LED OPTIONS WITH PIANO. I DON'T KNOW IF, UM. MR PINERO IS FAMILIAR WITH THAT. BUT. MAYBE IF WE CAN START AT A PLACE WHERE. OTHER PROJECTS CAN AT LEAST. LINE WITH WHAT WE'RE DOING TONIGHT BECAUSE I KNOW WE JUST WENT THROUGH CHANGING ALL OF THE LIGHTS AROUND THE COMMUNITY TO LED LIGHT. SO AGAIN, I JUST THINK THAT YOU KNOW. I WOULD HATE FOR SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT TO YOU KNOW, HAVE STALL OR OR NOT COME AT ALL BECAUSE OF. LIGHTS CAN I SAY SOMETHING? OH YEAH RECORDS SO, WE, YOU KNOW, WE'VE WE'VE WENT BACK AND FORTH WITH STAFF A LOT ON THIS ONE. AND THIS WAS A BIG ONE, FOR SURE, AT LEAST FOR US, UM. WE DID TRY TO COME TO A HAPPY MEDIUM WHERE WE TOLD HIM. HEY YOU KNOW, WE WILL PUT THESE ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTS AROUND THE BUILDING, SO YOU KNOW IT. IT COMPLEMENTS TO BUILDING LOOK. BUT AGAIN OUT IN THE PARKING LOT. IT'S JUST REALLY DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. AND IT'S NOT A PRACTICAL USE IN OUR EXPERIENCE, AND I BELIEVE WE ASKED FOR EXAMPLES FROM STAFF MULTIPLE TIMES AND. AGAIN I DON'T RECALL THAT THEY CAME UP WITH ONE NOT TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THEM AGAIN. THEY'RE FOLLOWING THE CODE, AND THAT'S THEIR JOB, BUT AND AGAIN, IN MY EXPERIENCE THAT THAT SITUATIONS I'VE SEEN THROUGHOUT MY CAREER. HAS BEEN ALWAYS OKAY WHEN YOU HAVE TO PROVIDE ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTS.

THEY'RE TYPICALLY AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE BUILDING OR THROUGH A PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY.

UM. AGAIN TO COMPLEMENT THE LOOK OF THE BUILDING. UM NOT SO MUCH FOR A COMMERCIAL RETAIL PARKING LOT. UM. SO WELL COUNCILMAN YET I'LL GET TO YOUR QUESTION, BUT I HATE TO SAY I WANT TO DIVE IN JUST ONE SECOND. NO, NO, NO. I THINK IT'S GREAT. YES, BUT UNTIL I JUST BECAUSE.

THIS IS THE FIRST AND I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN LOOPED IN ON THIS CONVERSATION WITH A SECURE PLANNING AND ENGINEERING THING, AND SO ON, BUT IS THE FIRST I HAD HEARD ABOUT ALL OF THIS, AND I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HAD A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF IT BECAUSE I. LOOKED AT THE CODE PROVISIONS WE HAVE. AND THEN THE, UM, RECOMMENDATION FOR A CONDITION. SO IS IT THE APPLICANTS? CONCERN? IT'S NOT JUST THAT. UM, THAT THE CONDITION IS THAT YOU WOULD APPLY, UM ARCHITECTURALLY INTEGRATED, UH, LIGHTING THAT'S GREAT, ARCHITECTURALLY INTEGRATED TO THE CHARACTER OF THE DEVELOPMENT. PER THE SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS FROM STAFF. BUT YOU OBJECT TO ARCHITECTURALLY INTEGRATED LIGHTING IN THE PARKING LOT PERIOD OF ANY SORT, REGARDLESS OF THE BRAND OR COMPANY OR PRODUCT. WELL, WE LOOKED AT A

[02:10:06]

AH WE'RE TRYING TO DO THE SAFEST DESIGNED POSSIBLE. UM WE'VE WORKED WITH STAFF ON MULTIPLE THINGS, INCLUDING. HELPING STAFF GET THERE RIGHT PROCESSES IN PLACE TO DEAL WITH, FOR EXAMPLE, THE UTILITY F D O T PERMIT. UM. YOU KNOW, WE WERE TRYING, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, YOU KNOW, I KNOW THE VILLAGE ONCE RETAIL AND DEVELOPMENT TO COME IN AND. FRANKLY I WOULDN'T BE BRINGING THIS UP IF IT WASN'T HURTING THE FEASIBILITY FINANCIALLY OF THE PROJECT. UM.

BUT I THINK THAT YOU KNOW, GIVEN GIVEN ALL THESE FACTORS, THE VILLAGE COUNCIL SHOULD AT LEAST CONSIDER PUTTING THIS RECOMMENDATION UP FOR A VOTE TONIGHT AND DECIDING WHETHER THIS IS THE WAY TO GO AND FRANKLY, LIKE I SAID BEFORE, YOU KNOW, THE CODE IS RATHER NEW, AND I DON'T THINK THIS WAS INTENTION OF THE CODE. UH, YOU KNOW, PUT THESE LIGHTS OUT THERE. IT MIGHT. IT MIGHT BE A CONDITION WHERE THE CODE IS AMENDED IN THE FUTURE, AND THEY END UP, YOU KNOW, BEING A LITTLE BIT MORE SPECIFIC WHERE THESE TYPE OF LIGHTS SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN A DEVELOPMENT. I AGREE WITH THAT, TOM? SOMEONE, DARLING, ARE YOU DONE? WELL, UM, WAY JUMPED IN, SO I WANTED TO GET BACK TO WHAT? YEAH, I JUMPED IN TO TRY TO DRILL DOWN TO SEE. WHAT COULD BE WORKED OUT. YOU KNOW WHERE, WHERE, WHERE THEY WERE WITH REGARD TO WHAT COULD BE WORKED OUT. IF YOU WERE TO ALL TO PROVE THIS TONIGHT, SUBJECT TO A. WORK IT OUT. WORK IT OUT LATER. IT SOUNDS LIKE BASED ON WHERE THEY'RE AT. IT'S NOT LIKE ONES.

BAD ONES. GOOD THEY'RE JUST THEY'RE AT DIFFERENT PLACES. UH ON THIS. WHAT AGAIN? I'M GOING THE NEGOTIATOR MODE. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE STAFF THOUGHT OF THE F P. L HAVE YOU ALL EVER LOOKED INTO THAT PRODUCT THAT THEY. THAT FBL IMPLEMENTS I THIS IS THE FIRST I'M HEARING OF THAT PRODUCT. I WE HAVEN'T LOOKED AT THAT. BUT AGAIN, I ALSO UNDERSTAND THEY'RE TRYING TO GO BY THE CODE, AND THEY CAN'T MAKE THE DECISION OF SAYING. OKAY YOU'RE PROPOSING TO USE THESE LIGHTS AROUND THE BUILDING AS AN ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE FOR THE BUILDING, SO IT LOOKS NICE AND AT SOME, YOU KNOW, TRIES TO MEET THE INTENT OF THE CODE OF WHAT I THINK SHOULD BE THE INTENT OF THE CODE. UM SO THAT'S WHY I'M BRINGING IT UP TO CITY COUNCIL. UM, AND HOPING THAT THEY AT LEAST UNDERSTAND WHERE WE'RE COMING FROM HERE THAT THAT WE'RE TRYING TO WORK UNDER WHAT WE HAVE, BUT AT THE SAME TIME WE YOU KNOW, WE STILL WANT TO MAKE THIS PROJECT HAPPEN AND. YES THIS IS THIS IS FRANKLY, A BIG DEAL FOR US RIGHT NOW. OKAY, SO I WANT TO JUST GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL QUESTION. UM, WOULD IT BE OKAY TO APPROVE THE PROJECT AND THEN? STAFF. AND THE APPLICANT COME BACK LATER, UM, WITH THIS LIGHT. RECOMMENDATION BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE, UM THE ONLY MAJOR ISSUE IS THE LIGHT SO WE CAN STILL MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS. UM AND YOU KNOW, NEXT MEETING OR, YOU KNOW, UM, WHENEVER WE CAN OR HAVE A SPECIAL MEETING SOMETHING SO THAT WE CAN JUST SAY, HEY, THE THESE ARE THE LIGHTS THAT WE WANT TO PROVE, CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD. WOULD WITH THE CONDITION BE MODIFIED TONIGHT FOR THE APPROVAL, OR I GUESS HOW DOES THAT PROCESS LEGALLY WOULD COME FORWARD? I WOULD TELL YOU THAT THAT. ORDINARILY WE LIKE TO GET REALLY CREATIVE, IF IT MAKES SENSE TO GET CREATIVE. HERE. IT'S TYPICALLY WHEN YOU'RE APPROVING A MAJOR SITE PLAN OR A PLAT OR SO ON, YOU SORT OUT WHAT YOU'RE APPROVING. IT'S WHY YOU HAVE CONDITION SO IT'S NOT SIMPLY UP. YOU BETTER GET IT PERFECT. SO WE WANT TO CHANGE. THREE

[02:15:04]

WE GOT THROUGH THE DIFFICULT PART. SO UM, BUT I'M I'M WILLING TO, UM DO WHATEVER COUNCIL WHAT MY THOUGHTS WAS THIS WE JUST GO AHEAD AND APPROVED THE PROJECT TONIGHT.

UM AND THEN WE JUST MOVE FORWARD AND SEE, YOU KNOW, CONVERSATIONS IN THE FUTURE, BUT I DON'T WANT TO START THIS PROJECT ANY LONGER. UM UM WITH THESE CONDITIONS, SO, UM, SO THOSE ARE MY TWO CENTS. THANK YOU. VICE MAYOR CLARKE MAYOR COULD I COULD I, UH, COULD I PROVIDE SOME INFORMATION THAT MIGHT HELP RESOLVE THIS. THANKS. UM. AGAIN SINCE SINCE THIS IS A NEW CODE, AND THIS IS OUR FIRST SITE PLAN. WORKING WITH THE CODE. WE CAN ONLY GO BY. THE WAY THAT IT READS TODAY, BUT, UM, IF THE COUNCIL IF THE COUNCIL PREFERENCE IS TO, UM FIND A COMPROMISE, UM I THINK THAT. IT WOULD BE A REASONABLE INTERPRETATION OF THE CODE.

THAT THE LIGHTING IN THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING AND ON THE CORNER WHERE YOU YOU KNOW WHERE IT'S MOST VISIBLE FROM 7 10 AND WHERE YOU COME IN AFTER THAT, IF THOSE FIXTURES MET THE CRITERIA, BUT THE REST OF THEM DIDN'T UM. I COULD MAKE AN ARGUMENT THAT THAT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE INTENT OF YOUR CODE BECAUSE THIS PARTICULAR SITE IS 100 FT. OFF OF 7 10. I THINK THE CODE ENVISIONED THAT MOST OF THESE PROPERTIES WOULD BE RIGHT ON TOP OF 7 10. AND IT WOULD BE A HIGHLY VISIBLE SITUATION SUCH AS WHAT CHELSEA WAS JUST SAYING WITH THE MCDONALD'S LIFT UP IN DOUGHNUTS WHERE THEY HAD THESE LIGHTS IN THE FRONT WHERE YOU CAN REALLY SEE THEM, BUT THAT MIGHT BE A COMPROMISE. UH, IN THIS SITUATION. SO IF I MAY I KNOW CONDITIONS CAN BE MODIFIED DURING THESE HEARINGS TO MOVE FORWARD, SO I'D LIKE TO PROPOSE SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES IF THE APPLICANT IS WILLING TO, UH AS AS WE SAID BEFORE TO STAFF WERE WILLING TO PUT THESE ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTS ALONG THE FRONTAGE OF THE BUILDING AND THE SIDE THAT FACES WAR FIELD, WHICH I THINK FALLS IN LINE WITH WHAT MR. ATTEMPTS IS SAYING RIGHT NOW, UM, THAT THAT WOULD BE, UH. HAPPY MEDIUM THAT BE, YOU KNOW, WOULD BE GOOD FOR US AND I THINK ALSO FOR STAFF. YEAH GUYS, I THINK WE'RE THERE. THANK YOU. AND JUST TO FOLLOW THAT UP. UM YOU KNOW, WE WERE FINE WITH THAT. IT'S JUST IT WAS A SURPRISE TO US TONIGHT BECAUSE THE LAST CONVERSATION WE HAD AS. WITH THE ENGINEERS WHO SAID IT WAS FEASIBLE AND TRACTOR SUPPLY THAT SAID THAT THEY WERE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND DO IT. UM YOU KNOW IF WE'D HAD THIS CONVERSATION BEFORE THE MEETING, I THINK WE WOULD HAVE COME TO THE SAME COMPROMISE TONIGHT. UM, BUT WERE THERE AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS. VICE MAYOR CLARKE. YES, WE'RE ALL THEIR AGREEMENT. THAT THE LIGHTS GO FROM TO THE ENTRANCE AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE IN THE MAJOR PARKING LOT. I THINK THAT'S WHAT HE'S TRYING TO, UM. COME TO THE CONCLUSION TO THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE IN THE PARKING LOT, BUT AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE CORRECT. YES, CORRECT.

OKAY. IS THAT IT? VICE MAYOR CLARKE. YES. COUNCILMAN STONE. GET SO IT WAS ACTUALLY IN AGREEMENT WITH THE ENGINEER AS FAR AS THE EARLIER COMMENT THAT, HE SAID. IF WE COULD PUT THOSE LIGHTS IN THE WALKWAY WHERE PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY WALKING, AND THEY HAD SEEN A BEAUTIFUL LIGHTS OTHER THAN 100, FT AWAY WHERE NOBODY IS REALLY GOING TO EVEN KNOW WHAT TYPE OF LIKE THAT IS. UH AROUND THE BUILDING AND AS WELL AS THE WALKWAY. I THINK I'M IN AGREEANCE WITH THAT I'M WILLING TO MAKE THAT MOTION. UM WHENEVER YOU'RE READY THERE.

[02:20:03]

IF THEY'RE DENIED, THEN IT'S GOING TO BE LITIGATION, YOU KNOW? WELL, WHY DID YOU DO IT FOR THEM? YOU DIDN'T DO IT FOR US. THINK IT'S SETTING A DANGEROUS PRECEDENTS TO START THE SLIPPERY SLOPE OF VARIANCES AND EXCEPTIONS, ONE OF OUR VERY FIRST APPLICATIONS ON APPROVED FOR APPROVAL. UM. THEY'RE THERE FOR A REASON, IF IT'S NOT. IF THOSE LD. OURS ARE NOT GOING TO MEET THE NEEDS, THEN WE NEED TO CHANGE THE LD OURS RATHER THAN STARTING VARIANCES BECAUSE THEN WHY HAVE THE L D R S AND WHY HAVE THE STANDARDS MY THOUGHTS. THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN GIVES THOMAS. AND WELL, I'VE BEEN, UH, TALKING. TO RESIDENT SINCE HEARING THEIR CONCERNS AND SOME OF THE THINGS IS THE LIGHTING. YOU KNOW THE SPEAKERS AND THE BUFFER. SO, UM. AND THEN WHILE I WAS WATCHING THE PRESENTATION, I HAD A FEW QUESTIONS. SO DOES THE DITCH DISAPPEAR AFTER THIS, UH WHEN THEY GO INTO CONSTRUCTION. THEY HAVE TO CONSTRUCT LIKE A BRIDGE OR HOW.

HOW IS THIS? I DID SEE SOME OF IT. BUT THERE'S LIKE, NO, I'D PREFER VISUAL LIKE PICTURES.

AND I DIDN'T SEE THAT IN THE PICTURES, OKAY? I THINK IT'S THE ONE WITH THE ENTRY.

YEAH. GO BACK ON, JEFF. YEAH, THANK YOU. MORE. MHM. WELL, THIS ACTUALLY ISN'T THE ONE THAT I WAS SPEAKING OF. I WAS BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE LOOKING HERE.

[02:25:01]

MY THING IS, I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP AT UNIFORMED. AND I KNOW THAT THE, UM. THE PROPERTY OWNER HASN'T REALLY, YOU KNOW? MY PERSONAL TAKE ON THIS WOULD BE GETTING THAT 150 FT.

STRAIGHT DOWN THAT HOLE. PARCEL UM SO THAT YOU KNOW. JUST TO KEEP THAT AESTHETIC LOOK, BECAUSE IF ONE OTHER. UH LET'S JUST SAY SOMEONE ELSE COMES IN COMMERCIAL AND THEY DON'T KEEP THAT 150 BECAUSE CURRENTLY THEY WILL KEEP THE 150. BUT IT'S. THEY COULD IN THE FUTURE, BUILD ON IT. CORRECT. OR DO SOMETHING ON THERE? THAT'S THAT'S UH, LIKE A AND HOW THE PRESENTATION WENT MY ASPECT ON THIS AND THIS IS MY CONCERN, AND I THINK THAT UM, JUST TO BE. GOOD NEIGHBORS IS TO KEEP THAT 150 HAVING TRACTOR SUPPLY PROMISED OF KEEPING THE 150 NOT BUILDING ON IT. WELL, WHAT I CAN SAY RIGHT NOW. IS THAT THE PIECE THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS NOT PART OF THIS UP IN IN THE SENSE THAT IT'S BEING PLANTED, IT IS, BUT IT'S NOT PART OF THE SITE PLAN, OKAY? SO THIS WOULD BE WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER. YES, THAT. YEAH, OKAY. OKAY? DARING CAN WE GO? I THIS ONE OF THE EARLIER SLIDES FOR THE I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE BECAUSE YOU KNOW THE 150 RIGHT NOW IS THEY COULD BUILD ON IT IN THE FUTURE. JUST TO BE GOOD NEIGHBORS YOU WOULD WANT TO PREVENT. YES. SO THIS THIS WOULD BE ACTUALLY THE PROPERTY OWNER, RIGHT? YES, THEY'RE THEY'RE ONLY PLANS TO HAYEK. YES, OKAY. THIS DOESN'T HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING WITH THIS APPLICATION. OKAY? BUT. THE PROPERTY OWNER IS THE ONE THAT CAN ENFORCED 150 STRAIGHT DOWN. HOW WOULD WE MAKE THAT HAPPEN? ASKED THEM PUBLICLY. YOU MAY ASK. I JUST DON'T KNOW THAT IT WOULD GET ANYWHERE. OKAY, WE HAVE SOME MAYOR THAT THEY WOULD, UH, THE PROPERTY OWNER WOULD BE ENTITLED TO SUBSEQUENTLY COME. BEFORE THE VILLAGE AND SEEK DEVELOPMENT APPROVALS FOR DEVELOPMENT ON THAT PROPERTY CONSISTENT WITH OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS, OKAY? AND SO JUST THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO IF IT DIDN'T CONSIST OF THIS PIECE HERE THAT HAPPENED TO BE LIKE THAT. OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS HAS REQUIREMENTS WITH REGARD TO BUFFERING. THAT WOULD WHEN YOU HAVE A COMMERCIAL USE UP AGAINST A RESIDENTIAL USE AND SO ON, AND THEY WOULD BE REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE IN OUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS. SO WE HAVE RULES REGARDING THAT. I CAN'T TELL YOU IT'S HAPPENS TO BE 150 FT. OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. YES, AND MY CONCERN IS IN THE FUTURE. AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING TO BRING COMMERCIAL HERE RETAIL, BUT WE'RE ALSO TRYING TO YOU KNOW? WE'RE TRYING TO BALANCE WE HAVE TO BALANCE BETWEEN OUR RESIDENTS. UM AND OUR OUR NEEDS AND SO, UM, I DO REALLY THINK THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT. OFFLINE I'LL ASK. UM BUT ADDITIONALLY TO THAT, UM. DID HEAR ABOUT THE ARCHAEOLOGISTS REPORT. WHEN

[02:30:07]

TRACTOR SUPPLY WILL COME IN. AND THEN A FEW YEARS AFTER. AFTER TREASURY SUPPLY COMES IN, YOU KNOW, WE CAN SEE RUNDOWN LIKE BUILDINGS RUN DOWN. HOW DO WE AS A VILLAGE TRY. TO PREVENT THIS IN THE FUTURE. WELL, HOWARD'S GOING TO ANSWER BUT DARREN, IF YOU COULD GO TO THE CONDITIONAL USE PAGE WHERE WE DID TRY TO ADDRESS SOME OF THAT. WELL MADAM MAYOR, WE HAVE A CODE ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM. AND UM, WE HAVE BEEN DISCUSSING THIS WITH THE COUNCIL ABOUT PROPERTY MAINTENANCE COACH, YOU KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER, BUT MAYBE MAYBE A YEAR AND A HALF AGO OR SO WE TALKED ABOUT ADOPTING A PROBABLY MAINTENANCE CODE. DIDN'T GO OVER WELL WITH THE COUNCIL AT THAT TIME, AND SO WE'VE JUST. NOT EVEN TALKED ABOUT IT WITH YOU, BUT WE DO HAVE GENERAL STANDARDS TO FOR HIGH GRASS TRASH, THE MAIN THINGS WELL, THE THING IS LIKE I DO SEE WITH A LOT OF OTHER COLLEAGUES DOWN SOUTH THAT. IT'S A PROBLEM IN THE COMMERCIAL INDUSTRY. YOU KNOW, THE RUN DOWN ITEMS. ON COMMERCIAL AND SO HAVING.

ACCESS FROM WAR FIELD BOULEVARD DOES NOT LOOK REALLY NICE WITH RUNDOWN BUILDINGS. AND NOW THAT YOU KNOW THIS IS NEW COMMERCIAL. WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE IMPLEMENT IT. I THINK I THINK I THINK THAT'S. YOU KNOW, THAT'S WISE, BUT I ALSO THINK THAT WE WERE ABLE TO ENFORCE THESE CONDITIONS OF ZONING WITH RESPECT TO OUTDOOR STORAGE AREAS, UH, AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS AS FAR AS YOU KNOW THOSE TYPES OF AESTHETICS AS FAR AS UM. AS FAR AS REQUIRING SOMEONE TO, UM TO, UM. PAINT A HOUSE. SO PAINT THE BUILDING. WE DO HAVE REGULATIONS THAT WILL THAT WILL ALLOW US TO DEAL WITH, YOU KNOW, DEFECTIVE ROOFING OR OR OR ELEVATION PROBLEMS. RIGHT? AS FAR AS. GETTING DOWN TO VERY SPECIFIC CODE ENFORCEMENT ISSUES RELATED TO LIKE PAINT COLORS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. WE DON'T HAVE REGULATIONS FOR THAT. IT IS AT THIS POINT. AND I DO, SEE, UH. COUNCILWOMAN GIVE THOMAS HAS MORE COMMENTS. YEAH, JUST REAL QUICK. THANK YOU. I JUST. WANTED TO REITERATE AND CLARIFY THAT. AND THAT'S WHAT I HAD DOWN HERE THAT WHAT YOU HAD MENTIONED THAT THAT PARCEL BE THAT RUNS BEHIND THAT PARCEL, A. IS THAT 150 FT BUFFER, AND IT CAN BE BUILT ON AT A LATER DATE. VICE MAYOR CLARKE. ALL ABOUT THE PROPOSAL REMAINS SO. WAS A REPORT DONE OR TO STUDY DONE BEFORE ALONG WITH THE APPLICATION WHEN THEY SUBMITTED THIS SO. WAS THE ENVIRONMENT STUDY DONE PRIOR TO THEM. UM, SUBMITTING THE APPLICATION, OR WAS IT WITH THE BAGGAGE OR NOT? OR THIS JUST HAPPENED. HOW'S THE RUMOR STARTED? UM, COUNCIL MEMBER. THERE WAS A ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT THAT THEY SUBMITTED WITH THE APPLICATION AND IT EXAMINED ENDANGERED SPECIES. YOU KNOW ANY WILDLIFE THAT THEY CAME ACROSS THE PRESENCE OF WETLANDS.

YOUR BUSINESS IS COMING TO THIS VILLAGE, AND I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO HOLD TRUE TO THAT. UM YOU KNOW, I REALLY DO BELIEVE THAT BUILT THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN. HIS, UH. BRAZIL HAS THE GREATEST POTENTIAL IN THIS VILLAGE OUT OF THE ENTIRE COUNTY. AND I THINK THAT YOU PROBABLY SHOULD HOLD TO YOUR GUNS. UH THESE PLANS WERE DEVELOPED FOR A REASON.

ADDRESS MY NAME IS SAM IS SO HIGH IT WHILE THE PRINCIPLES OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY AND I'D JUST LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT THE. ISSUE WITH THE INDIAN REMAINS, BECAUSE THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A RUMOR THAT WAS STARTED NOT BASED ON ANY FACTUAL BASES. UH, BROUGHT UP BY SOMEONE IN THE LAST PNC MEETING. WAS HEARD ABOUT IT. TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE MEETING DID NOT BRING IT TO ANYBODY'S ATTENTION, BUT ONLY AT THE TIME OF THE MEETING. WITHOUT ANY BASIS OF IDENTIFYING WHO IS THE SOURCE. WHO IS THIS PERSON OTHER THAN TELLING US HIS A GENTLEMAN WHO IS ON CHEMOTHERAPY. WE DON'T KNOW THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF HIS MENTAL STATE. SINCE THEN. BASED ON THAT RUMOR. WE HAVE. PURSUE THIS FURTHER. WE, OMAR, AT WAY WHO HAPPENS TO BE OUT OF THE COUNTRY DUE TO FAMILY ISSUES. BUT HE HAD SPOKEN TO WITH MEMBERS OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY. TWO PERSONS IN THAT SOCIETY WHO CLAIMED AND TOLD US THAT THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE NO HISTORY OF ANY SUCH REMAINS. ALSO A DISCUSSION WAS SCARED OUT WITH THE CHIEF OF INDIAN TRIBE. AND WHO ALSO. TOLD OMAR AT WAY THAT HE WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY SUCH REMAINS. NUMBER THREE RECENTLY WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE POLICE LADY WHO. WAS ON THE PREMISES, ASKING PERMISSION TO GET ON THE PROPERTY TO CONFIRM OR VERIFY EXCITING BY SOMEONE. WAS ACCOMPANIED BY THE POLICE LADY. AND I BELIEVE MY NEPHEW, MR DANIEL. THE HIKE WAS THERE AND I BELIEVE MR POWER DAVID POWERS. THEY WENT ONTO THE PROPERTY THAT WALKED ON THE PROPERTY. IDENTIFIED A THAT. TRUNK OF A TREE WAS WHAT SHE SAW. SO I JUST WANT TO PUT THIS ISSUE TO REST BECAUSE UP TO NOW IT'S BEEN BROUGHT ABOUT BASED ON RUMORS. WITHOUT ANYBODY COMING FORWARD AND ACTUALLY SHOWING EVIDENCE, PHOTOGRAPHS OR SOME DOCUMENTATION, AND IT'S JUST SEEMS TO BE, UH ABUSE. AND I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE COUNCIL TO BE MADE AWARE OF IT, AND WE HAVE ALSO HAD AN ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY WHERE SOMEBODY WALKED ON THE PROPERTY, IDENTIFYING TREES, ANIMALS AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.

BURIAL OR SOMETHING THAT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION SEVERAL YEARS BACK, AND WE HAVE NEVER HEARD ANY SUCH FACTUAL EVIDENCE. THANK YOU, MR SO, HAYEK ANYONE IS IMMEDIATE. MR CALDWELL.

American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 Update & Proposed Funding Options

AT OUR MAY 27TH MEETING, THE MAYOR REQUESTED THAT WE DISCUSSED THE AMERICA AND RESCUE. PLANNED ACT OF 2021, SO I'M GOING TO WALK. WALK YOU GUYS THROUGH A BRIEF PRESENTATION ON. ON AN UPDATE ON WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN AND, UH, DISCUSS THE LATEST. OKAY, SO THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAYING ACT OF 2021 IS IT COMES FROM THE ONE THAT THE $1.9 TRILLION. STIMULUS BILL THAT CAME DOWN, I GUESS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO THAT'S THAT'S NOT IT. AS WE WON'T GIVE IN. THAT'S OKAY. THAT'S OKAY. ALL RIGHT. MM.

VERY GOOD. OKAY? SO THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT OF 2021 NEXT LINE. SO, UM. AS YOU KNOW, THE ACT DOES A NUMBER OF THINGS. IT'S ABOUT, UH, IT'S RESPONDING TO THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC. THIS ALSO PROVIDES FOR THIS PRESENTATION PROVIDES FOR STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK FOR THE USE OF THE FUNDS AND SOME COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING ACTIVITIES FOR THE COVID 19 FUNDING THAT WE'RE ABOUT TO UNDERTAKE. NEXT LIFE. SO NEXT LINE. SO THIS THIS COMES OUT OF THE $1.9 TRILLION AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT. UH AS YOU PROBABLY ARE AWARE, IT'S MULTI FUNDED, UH AT $1.9 TRILLION AND HOW THAT TRICKLES DOWN TO US IS, UH, STATES. AND IN OUR CASE, UM. NON ENTITLEMENT UNITS OF GOVERNMENT OR CITIES THAT ARE SMALLER THAN 50,000. WE'RE GETTING OUR OWN MONEY THROUGH THE STATE. SO RIGHT NOW, UH MOST MUNICIPALITIES THAT ARE.

IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. THEY'RE ABLE TO GET FUNDING DIRECTLY FROM THE FEDS, AND SO LIKE MARTIN COUNTY, FOR EXAMPLE, THEY'RE THEY'RE ABLE TO GET THEIR FUNDING. UH DIRECTLY FROM THE FEDS AND MOST MUNICIPALITIES OF. 50,000 IN POPULATION OF MORE THERE.

THEY'VE ALREADY APPLIED. NEXT LINE. SO WE'RE DIFFERENT. SO THE STATE THERE'S A NUMBER OF.

UH THERE'S A NUMBER OF THINGS HAPPENING WITH WHAT THE FUNDING LEVELS WILL BE, SO I KNOW YOU

[02:55:01]

SO WHEN THE STATE GIVES US MONEY TO CITIES LIKE US OR MUNICIPALITIES, LIKE THE VILLAGE. THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ADD ON ANY ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS. AND, UH AND OBVIOUSLY, NON ENTITLEMENT UNITS OF GOVERNMENT, OUR GOVERNMENTS THAT ARE LESS THAN 50,000 POPULATION. NEXT LIFE. AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER PROGRAMS THAT THIS MONEY WILL PAY FOR HOUSING UNTIL THE PROGRAMS IS ONE EMERGING MAJOR PROGRAMS. ANOTHER NEXT LINE.

BUT THERE'S REALLY LIKE FOUR KEY AREAS IN WHICH WHEN YOU READ THE ACTUAL GUIDANCE THAT COMES FROM THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT, THEREFORE, AREAS IN WHICH WE CAN QUALIFY FOR THE USE OF THOSE FUNDS. THE FIRST ONE PRIMARILY IS TO RESPOND TO COVID 19 OR ITS ECONOMIC IMPACTS. THE SECOND ONE IS TO REPLACE REVENUE LOSS DUE TO COVID 19. THE THIRD IS PROVIDING PREMIUM PAY FOR ELIGIBLE ESSENTIAL WORKERS. UM AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS INVEST IN WATER, SEWER AND BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE. NEXT LINE. NEXT LIFE. SO WHAT? WE WHAT WE THINK WE SHOULD DO WITH THIS FUNDING IS LOOK AT. A NUMBER OF AREAS WE SHOULD FOCUS ON THE PROJECTS THAT WE WANT TO SEE THAT ARE FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE FOR US TO UNDERTAKE. AVOID NEW PROGRAMS. OR OR. OR ONES THAT WILL REQUIRE AN ONGOING COMMITMENT. SO OBVIOUSLY WE DON'T WANT TO ENTERTAIN A PROGRAM THAT'S GOING TO REQUIRE US TO, UH THE VILLAGE, YOU KNOW. FIVE YEARS, 10 YEARS FROM NOW. AND THEN, OF COURSE, TO ENHANCE OUR BUDGETARY STABILITY. THAT WAS THAT'S ALL PART OF. THIS WHOLE PROGRAM AND THEN TRY TO PARTNER WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO MAXIMIZE AND LEVERAGE THE CITY'S PORTION OF FUNDING. NEXT LIFE. SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM, UH I MEAN, OH, THIS IS JUST A SNAPSHOT OF. OF HOW PEOPLE ARE GOING TO USE THIS MONEY IN THE SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM NEXT LIFE. SO WHAT WE'VE HAD TO DO IS AND WHAT WE'RE DOING, I GUESS THE STAFF DOING WE ARE LOOKING AT RECOMMENDING CERTAIN PROJECTS TO YOU. NOW I KNOW THIS IS EARLY ON IS PREMATURE BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW MUCH WE'RE GOING TO GET, BUT WE THINK IT'S GOING TO BE IN THE MILLION DOLLAR RANGE. WE ALSO KNOW THAT, UM MOST OF THE PROJECTS THAT WILL BE RECOMMENDING WILL WILL REVOLVE AROUND WATER AND SEWER IMPROVEMENTS. AND UH AND THEN OTHER OTHER PROGRAMS THAT WE CAN UNDERTAKE OR CONTRACT JEWEL POSITIONS THAT WE CAN UNDERTAKE. THAT WILL HELP CARRY OUT. UH THE USE OF SPENDING THIS THIS THIS MONEY. SO WE LOOKED AT WELL. WHEN THIS WHEN THIS WHEN THIS POWER POINT WAS PUT TOGETHER AND PUT TOGETHER LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO, AND SO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE LEARNING A LOT ABOUT THE USE OF THE FUNDING OVER TIME. AND WHAT I DO KNOW IS. WE'RE PROBABLY AT ABOUT $2.5 MILLION WORTH OF PROJECTS AND. WHAT WE THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE RECOMMENDED TO THE COUNCIL. BUT THE BIGGEST ONE IS AND FOR ME THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE RIGHT NOW IS LOOKING AT A ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING TOOL. THAT'S THAT'S PRETTY MUCH A SOFTWARE PROGRAM. THAT WILL AUTOMATE THE ENTIRE MUNICIPALITY RIGHT NOW. WE DON'T HAVE SUCH A SUCH A SOFTWARE PROGRAM. SO WHEN PEOPLE COME IN AND MAKE SERVICE, YOUR CLASS WHERE WE'RE TRACKING ALL THIS BY, UM MICROSOFT EXCEL. AND MICROSOFT ■WORD. AND SO WE REALLY NEED A TECHNOLOGY THAT WILL ALLOW US TO AUTOMATE OUR BUSINESS PRACTICES AND ALLOW OUR RESIDENTS TO CART YOU KNOW TO, UM. TO INTERFACE WITH US THROUGH TECHNOLOGY THEY CAN TRACK SERVICE REQUESTS IF SOMEONE MADE A POTHOLDER POTTER REQUEST, THEY'LL GET AN EMAIL THAT, UH, YOU KNOW IT'S BEING WORKED ON OR WHEN IT'S COMPLETED. IT JUST HELPS US AS A MANAGEMENT TOOL. TO REALLY BE BETTER AND DELIVERING SERVICES TO RESIDENTS. AND THEN

[03:00:03]

I'LL TALK MORE THAN. ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM THE COUNCIL. THANK YOU, MR VILLAGE MANAGER.

WELL, I WILL SAY THIS, I THINK. WE NEED TO REALLY START THINKING ABOUT PROJECTS THAT COULD FIT. INTO THIS WHOLE SCENARIO, SO START THINKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WATER ENSURE PROJECTS, UH, THAT WE COULD UTILIZE THE MONEY FOR. THINK ABOUT, UH, ANYTHING THAT THAT, UH MITIGATES, UM. OR REDUCES OUR EXPOSURE TO COVID 19. THESE ARE KINDS OF THINGS THAT THEY WILL REIMBURSE. UM. I MADE A QUICK LIST OF LIKE, I THOUGHT MAYBE WE BUY. UH SOME VEHICLES FOR OUR OUR WATER AND SEWER DEPARTMENT. AS UM, UH, THAT THAT SHOULD QUALIFY IN TERMS OF US. IN TERMS OF US BEING ABLE TO USE THIS MONEY, THIS INELIGIBLE USE, SO START THINKING ABOUT THOSE THINGS BECAUSE OF AS SOON AS WE KNOW EXACTLY THE DETAILS FROM THE STATE THEN YOU KNOW, WE DON'T WANT TO REALLY START. THINK ABOUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO USE THE FUNDING SO AND I APPRECIATE. DO GETTING ON TOP OF THIS. JUST MY IDEAS JUST TO START HAVING YOU KNOW, BRAINSTORMING BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT WE NEED TO DO HERE AND IN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, AND I CONCUR WITH COUNCILMAN DOWLING. THIS IS GOING TO ACTUALLY GO IN.

HEY, I FEEL LIKE IT'S GOING TO GO HAND IN HAND WITH A STRATEGIC PLANNING. UM BUT AS THE DAYS GO BY THE, UM. THE RULES AND THE GUIDELINES ARE CHANGING CONSTANTLY. BUT WE SHOULD HAVE THIS IN MIND SO THAT WE KNOW WHAT TO DO. UM WHEN IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS AND WE HAVE A. AT LEAST THE PLAN A OR PLAN B, UM SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE WITH WHAT WE'RE DOING.

AND I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR THAT, AND THE STAFF. MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY ITEM NUMBER 14. WAIT BEFORE I GO. MOVE ON. DO YOU WANNA RECEIVED. MOTION NO, I'M GOOD. I JUST OKAY. GET IT OUT. OKAY MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY ITEM NUMBER 14. THANK YOU, MAYOR. A RESOLUTION OF THE

VICE MAYOR CLARKE. YOU'RE ON MUTE. I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED COUNCIL OF DALLAS JUST IS THIS FROM THE STRATEGIC PLAN. SO UH, SO WE WERE ASKED TO, UM, BRING WHAT WE WANT TO SEE. AND WE DIDN'T GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY DISCUSS THAT AT OUR APRIL 10TH MEETING, SO I'M BRINGING IT BACK SO THAT WE CAN. UM THESE ARE MY IDEAS THAT I WANTED TO BRING FORTH FOR US TO DO AS AS THE COUNCIL OF THINGS THAT I SEE THAT WE SHOULD DO. SO UM SO NO, BECAUSE I THOUGHT WE HAD ANOTHER STRATEGIC. I THOUGHT WE HAD ANOTHER MEETING PLAN. I DON'T THINK IT'S BEEN PLAYING RIGHT. I THINK IT'S MAYBE FOR THE LATTER PART OF THE YEAR. I THINK WE AGREED UPON IT. WE DID IT WHEN WE LEFT THE LAST AM I IF I'M MISSING SOMETHING, YEAH, I THINK IT'S DOWN THE ROAD LIKE LIKE JUNE JULY. TIME I MEAN, I MEAN, AUGUST SEPTEMBER TIME. BUT WE'RE ALSO IN BUDGET SEASON NOW BECAUSE I THINK WE HAVE OUR NEXT YOU KNOW OUR FIRST BUDGET MEETING ON THE 23RD SO I THINK YOU KNOW, OCTOBER NINE, SO, YEAH. SO THE NEXT STRATEGIC MEETING VICE MAYOR IS OCTOBER THE NINTH. SO I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THIS AND GET THIS.

Authorizing Council Discretionary Funds

[03:20:04]

DOING A FUND FOR EVERYBODY, BUT WE THAT'S WHAT THE COUNCIL IS. SO UM, SO THIS IS SPECIFICALLY TO EACH COUNCIL MEMBER WILL RECEIVE $2000 EVERY YEAR. TO HOST EVENTS TO DO WHATEVER THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO, UM. WITH COMMUNITY OUTREACH. SO OTHER OTHER MUNICIPALITIES AND OTHER COUNTIES ARE DOING THIS. I THINK THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY AS WE ARE GROWING AND LEARNING. TO REACH OUT TO OUR OUR CONSTITUENTS. SO THAT'S WHERE THAT IDEA DERIVED FROM.

AND I THINK THIS IS THE THIRD TIME ON THE AGENDA SO MM. VICE MAYOR CLARKE. I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT. I WOULD LIKE, UH, OUTDOOR MONKEY WRENCH IN THERE. WE NEED TO HAVE SOME COHESIVENESS. AND I THINK THAT WE NEED TO HAVE SOMETHING WHERE WE'RE GONNA DO SOMETHING TOGETHER AS A COUNCIL. AND UH THEN WE COULD DO SOMETHING SEPARATE. I MEAN, I'M ALL FOR IT, BUT WE NEED SOME COHESIVENESS ON THIS COUNCIL. YES VICE MAYOR AND DON'T DEFINITELY AGREE WITH YOU SO. SO AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, UM RIGHT NOW WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT AS A COUNCIL AS A RELEASE TO HOSTING EVENTS WE HAVE DONE AND SPONSORED CERTAIN THINGS.

SO THIS IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN THAT. THIS IS FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL TO HAVE A DISCRETIONARY FUND. IS MARY PARK. IS THAT IT? OKAY? COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS THANK YOU. UM OKAY? I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED. YOU SAID WHEN WE AS A COUNCIL, BUT THEN YOU SAID.

EACH OF US WOULD HAVE DISCRETIONARY. FUNDS. SO YOU'RE SAYING INDIVIDUAL COUNCIL MEMBERS SO EACH SO EACH OFFICE EACH COUNCIL OFFICE LIKE YOUR OFFICE WILL HAVE $2000 TO HOST AND TO PUT MONEY TOWARDS WHATEVER EVENT OR OUTREACH THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE. OKAY.

THANK YOU. FOR THE YES. NO PROBLEM. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OH GO AHEAD. WELL, I WAS JUST DON'T THINK THAT WE NEED TO DON'T I DON'T THINK WE NEED TO DO THAT. I MEAN, WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO COME TOGETHER AND TO DO EVENTS AND IF WE DECIDE TO DO THEM INDIVIDUALLY, I THINK THE COUNCIL. TALKING ABOUT COMING TOGETHER THAN THE COUNTY COUNCIL WOULD SUPPORT EACH, UM COUNCIL MEMBER IN THERE. AND THEIR EFFORTS. I JUST, UM. I DON'T THINK WE'RE THAT POINT. I JUST I DON'T AGREE WITH THE IDEA. OKAY DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE QUESTIONS, COMMENTS AND JUST TO RE, UH JUST TO MAKE SURE IT'S. INDIRECTLY LIKE WE DON'T GET THEM THEY WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH STAFF TO YOU KNOW? YEAH SO HOW THIS WOULD WORK IS LET'S SAY, FOR EXAMPLE, I'M HOSTING THE SECOND ANNUAL JUNETEENTH EVENTS. SO I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT AND GIVE MY ANNOUNCEMENT SO I CAN GET OUT OF THE WAY. SO FOR THIS EVENT, FOR EXAMPLE, I'M GOING TO HAVE AT THIS EVENT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE, UM, UH, VENDORS. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE, UM, A PETTING ZOO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE, YOU KNOW. ALL THESE OTHER GAMES AND THINGS THAT KIND OF LIKE A CARNIVAL. SO. WITH THAT, UM, LET'S SAY IF THIS WAS A, YOU KNOW, IF WE WERE UNDER THIS DISCRETIONARY FUND SO THEY WOULD TAKE THAT $2000 AND PAY FOR THE PET ZOO. THEY'LL PAY FOR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE, OR. WE COULD PAY FOR OURSELVES AND THEN SUBMIT FOR REIMBURSEMENT. SO THOSE ARE THE TWO IDEAS. IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER HOW THE MONEY GETS SPENT. THE GOAL IS TO AS WE ARE OPENING UP, AND THINGS ARE STARTING TO HAPPEN IS TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE. IN VARIOUS WAYS WITH OUR CONSTITUENTS, SO THAT'S THAT'S KIND OF LIKE AN EXAMPLE. THANK YOU. I SEE. TOM CLEMENTS STONE. ACTUALLY I HAVE A QUESTION JUST TO KIND OF CLEAR IT UP BECAUSE YOU USED A JUNETEENTH AS AN EXAMPLE. UM IF.

THE VILLAGE FUNDS IS GOING TO BE PAYING FOR THIS EVENT. ARE WE STILL GOING TO BE COLLECTED LIKE VENDOR FEES AND THINGS LIKE THAT? BECAUSE TO ME AT THAT POINT, YOU'RE MIXING TWO

[03:25:01]

OKAY WELL, WE CAN TABLE THIS, UM TO YOU KNOW, WE CAN TABLE IT AND YOU KNOW, WE CAN WORK OUT THOSE DETAILS AND MAKE BRING IT BACK IN OCTOBER. SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I WOULD PREFER TO TABLE IT BEFORE WE DO BUDGET SEASON. REMEMBER, EVERYTHING EVOLVES AROUND OUR BUDGET. RIGHT, RIGHT.

THAT'S WHY I SAID, TABLE IT TO OCTOBER, SO OR OUR BUDGET DOESN'T START. YOU KNOW, WE CAN JUST FORGET IT, YOU KNOW? YEAH WE CAN JUST BRING. YEAH, WE CAN BRING IT BACK ANOTHER TIME, NOT AN ISSUE. WE CAN. WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT ON OUR JUNE 23RD MEETING. THAT'S THE PERFECT TIME TO BRING IT UP, WHICH I THINK IT'S. IT'S A GOOD THING BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU HAVE MORE.

VILLAGE COUNCIL SPONSORED EVENTS. UM. AND I DON'T DISAGREE WITH YOU WITH THAT. SO I THINK THAT WE SHOULD. BRING IT UP ARE ALREADY JUNE 23RD MEETING AND YOU KNOW WE HAVE WE HAVE RESIDENTS TALKING ABOUT TRANSPARENCY THAT THEY DON'T THEY DON'T GET ANYTHING THAT THEY'RE NOT HEARING ANYTHING. SO I. I JUST KIND OF SAW THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO, UM HAVE EACH ONE OF US REACH OUT TO PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, REACH OUT TO RESIDENTS, BUT YOU KNOW AGAIN, IT'S THE PLEASURE OF THE COUNCIL. I DIDN'T THINK THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE HARD, BUT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME AT IT. SO YOU KNOW, WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT. MAY YOU KNOW AT OUR NEXT MEETING, BUT YOU KNOW IF IT'S TOO MUCH, THEN YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL LIKE WE WILL CONTINUE TO, YOU KNOW, MOVE FORWARD COUNCILMAN STONE. I THINK WE COULD GO AHEAD AND VOTE ON IT. AND, UH, YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS THE DETAILS WE CAN HAVE STAFF COME BACK TO US WITH THE DETAILS AS FAR AS THE POLICIES AND HOW IT WOULD WORK BECAUSE I MEAN, IF YOU KEEP TABLE IN IT, IT'S KIND OF LIKE JUST PUTTING IT ONTO THE RUB. YOU STILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH ALL RIGHT? YEAH, BUT YOU KNOW, MY EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN WITH THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS THAT WE GO NOWHERE WITH IT SO. SO DO I CONTINUE TO KICK THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD OR WE CAN JUST NOT SO I MEAN, EITHER WAY, I'M TRYING TO GIVE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THINGS IN THE COMMUNITY. WHERE FINANCES MAY BE AN ISSUE BECAUSE I KNOW FOR ME WHEN I STARTED FINANCES WERE AN ISSUE SOME I'M TRYING TO JUST MAKE THIS EASY FOR EVERYBODY. BUT IF IT'S TOO MUCH, THEN IT'S NOT A PROBLEM. WELL, THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE. HOLD UP. UM SO WAIT SAID THAT HE NEEDS. TO WELL, COUNCILMAN STONE. YOU BROUGHT UP AN ISSUE IF IT'S GONNA BE VENDOR FEES, SO WHAT? YOU'RE GONNA PASS IT INDIAN WEIGHTS AWAY. FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WAS A FEASIBLE WE'RE NOT. NO, MA'AM. I WAS ONLY USING THAT AS AN EXAMPLE. BUT IT WAS A HORRIBLE EXAMPLE.

BECAUSE OF THE VENDOR FEE. I'M TALKING TO YOU. I'M TALKING TO WAIT IN STONE RIGHT NOW. YOU HOLD UP FOR A MINUTE, BABY. I'M TALKING TO A STONE. OKAY, MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY? YES AUNTIE. I GOT YOUR AUNTIE THAT IT WOULD BE YOUR COUNSELOR. DOLLY WE'RE GONNA WORK. LET'S LET'S JUST GET MR ATTORNEY INVOLVED. I PROBABLY NEED A COUPLE MORE FACTS. I'D I'D BE GLAD TO TALK WITH COUNCILMAN DOWLING. BRING IT BACK AT ANY TIME TO TALK. I THINK YOU'VE GOT ENOUGH TO PASS IT THE WAY YOU NEED TO WORK OUT HIS IDEAS. HIS KING'S WELL, WELL HERE. HERE'S A SUGGESTION.

I THINK WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND VOTE ON IT. AND THEN IF IT PASSES, WE CAN HAVE STAFF COME BACK TO US WITH A GOOD WAY TO GO ABOUT IT, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW, AS YOU SAY, IT'S BEEN TABLED THREE TIMES ALREADY. WHAT'S THE POINT TO KEEP TABLE IN IT? WELL IT'S BEEN ON DISCUSSION ITEM.

UM AND REMEMBER, WE DON'T VOTE ON DISCUSSION ITEMS SO WE WOULD HAVE TO BRING IT ONTO A REGULAR AGENDA TO VOTE ON IT. ON THE 24TH. TO VOTE. I WOULD SAY, LET'S LET'S STAFF BRING IT BACK ON THE REGULAR AGENDA, WITH SOME DETAILS AS FAR AS HOW WE CAN DO IT AND SEE IT OKAY WITH A PLEASURE TO COUNT MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY, PLEASE USE AS HOWARD WAS INDICATING OVER HERE. YOU ALL HAVE LATITUDE YOU CAN. YES BUT SOMEONE STATED FROM THE COUNCIL BEFORE AND I CAN YOU CAN GO BACK. YES YOU CAN GO BACK ON THAT. THEY'VE STATED PUBLICLY THAT WE DIDN'T WANT US TO BRING ON DISCUSSION ITEMS AND MAKE MOTIONS AND I DON'T WANT TO SAY A NAME, BUT THERE HAS BEEN A COUNCIL MEMBER THAT STATED THAT WE SHOULD NOT VON DISCUSSION ITEMS. BECAUSE IT DOES NOT LOOK PRETTY AND WE WOULD GENERALLY RECOMMEND WE WOULD GENERALLY RECOMMEND
