COULD ELABORATE. IF DANIELS ON AND HE'D PROBABLY BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN THIS ONE BETTER THAN I CAN. YES. HELLO GOOD EVENING. UM, INDEED. SO UM, THIS PROPOSAL FROM KIM CORN IS TO DESIGN THE WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT. AND ALONG WITH THAT THE REPLACEMENT OF SEVERAL WATER METERS FROM THE OLD METERS TO THE NEW RADIO READ. UM SO YES, THAT INCLUDES THAT

[00:55:02]

IT'S JUST A SMALL PORTION OF IT IS FOR THE WATER METERS. SO AT THIS MOMENT, THE 50% IS JUST DESIGN FACE EVENTUALLY WOULD APPLY TO A CONSTRUCTION LOAN. AND YOU KNOW THAT PERCENT OF PRINCIPLE FORGIVENESS. WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS. AT THIS POINT, IT COULD BE HIGHER THAN 50 OR LOWER. UM. DEPENDS ON VARIOUS FACTORS. BUT AGAIN, THIS IS JUST FOR DESIGN AT THIS MOMENT. OKAY, SO ONCE AGAIN FOR CLARIFICATION THAT 187,000 HOW MUCH OF THAT IS ACTUALLY THE DESIGN AND HOW MUCH OF THAT IS ACTUALLY FOR WATER METERS.

[11.  

Approval of SW 151st Street Water Main Replacement Design Contract with Kimley Horn in the amount of $59,800.00.

[01:00:08]

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

ABSOLUTELY WE'RE CERTAINLY NOT GOING BACK WITH A TWO INCH LINE. COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS.

AND LONG RAILROAD AVENUE. THAT'LL BE PVC. ALSO GET RID OF THE, UM CAST IRON. THAT'S CORRECT. YES, MA'AM. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ZOOMING THAT. I'M SORRY. ASSUMING THE ECONOMY DOESN'T HIT US, AND WE CHOOSE TO GO WITH THE DUCTILE IRON DR LAWRENCE TYPICALLY MORE EXPENSIVE, BUT PVC IS GOING CRAZY RIGHT NOW, SO WE WILL SEE WHICH WAY THE ECONOMY SENDS US WHEN THE TIME COMES. AND WHAT IS WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? AND IN USAGE OR LIFE OF BETWEEN THOSE TWO PRODUCTS. I DON'T KNOW THE ACTUAL LIFE EXPECTANCY OF PVC AT THIS POINT, UM, WHEN IT FIRST WENT IN, THEY SAID IT WAS GOING TO BE A 20 YEAR LIFE CYCLE. WE HAVE PVC PIPES IN THE GROUND RIGHT NOW THAT HAVE BEEN IN THE GROUND FOR 30 AND 40 YEARS AND WE DON'T SEE ANY DEGRADATION IN THE. SO CURRENTLY WE DON'T KNOW THE LIFE CYCLE OF PVC DUCTILE IRON PIPE IF IT'S PUT IN PROPERLY IS A SIMILAR PRODUCT. UM, IT IS NOT THE SAME AS THE OLD CAST IRON. IT'S MANUFACTURED DIFFERENTLY. IT'S COATED FOR CORROSION PROTECTION, AND WE'RE SEEING X. STANDARD LIFE CYCLES ON DUCTILE IRON. ALSO, MATERIALS HAVE COME A LONG WAY.

SO WHAT IS EXTREME? FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, I KNOW DR LIRON. I BELIEVE DANIEL DUCKED. THE LION CAME AROUND IN THE EIGHTIES. IS THAT CORRECT? AND WE STILL HAVE PIPES IN THE GROUND FROM THE EIGHTIES THAT ARE JUST FINE. OKAY, AFFORDING HER STORY. OH, I'LL GO AHEAD AND SECOND WITH THE CONSIDERATION THAT IT IS GOING TO BE A AGAIN. LET ME SEE IF I CAN FIND THE SIZE IN THE PROPOSAL. WHICH GALVANIZE BELIEVE IT SAYS THAT BILL, I DIDN'T SEE IT. I LOOKED AT IT.

I COULDN'T SEE. I'M PRETTY SURE I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S AN EIGHT INCH. UM. IF IT WASN'T IT WILL BE QUESTION, MR ARCH ABOUT PILL. WAS THERE. HERE WE GO. IT'S AN EIGHT INCH. I WAS JUST

[01:05:07]

WELL, SO IS THERE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN THE PRICE BETWEEN THE P. V C PIPE AND THE OTHER ONE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT? TYPICALLY DUCTILE IRON RUNS A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN PVC. BUT RIGHT NOW, PIPE PRICES HAVE BEEN GOING CRAZY. SO, UM. I'M ASSUMING WE'RE STILL GOING TO BE GOING PVC, BUT AT THE TIME WHAT WE'LL DO IS WE DO WHAT'S CALLED VALUE ENGINEERING. GIVE THE CONTRACTORS AN OPTION TO PROVIDE ONE OR THE OTHER SO WE CAN MAKE SURE WE GET THE BEST PRICE. OKAY. THANK YOU. HOW MUCH IS MASSAGE ABOUT HOW MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE IS THAT? BETWEEN. I HESITATE TO SAY AT THIS POINT, UM, BECAUSE I KNOW I KNOW LIKE CONSTRUCTIONS ARE OVER THE ROOF. WE'RE JUST WE CAN TALK ABOUT WINDOWS. WE CAN TALK ABOUT PLYWOOD. EVERYTHING IN CONSTRUCTION. DELIVERY AND ALL. LET ME SAY REESE. WE SAW PIPE PRICES ON A PROJECT RECENTLY COME IN $100,000 MORE THAN WE ANTICIPATED JUST ON THE MATERIALS AND TALKING TO CONTRACTORS. THEY'RE SEEING PRICES GOING UP. AND 15 20% EVERY FEW MONTHS RIGHT NOW, UM, SO IT'S DIFFICULT TO SAY WHERE THE DIFFERENCE IS GOING TO LIE. BY THE TIME THESE PROJECTS GO TO CONSTRUCTION, I HESITATE TO TRY TO COMMIT ON SOMETHING THAT'S. CLOSE TO A YEAR OUT. I DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING TO BE. WE COULD BE MUCH HIGHER. WE COULD BE MUCH LOWER DEPENDING ON THE ECONOMY. WHEN DO WE EXPECT TO GO INTO LIKE, SHOVEL READY? PROJECTS. CONSTRUCTION.

DANIEL CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT I BELIEVE WE WERE LOOKING AT WAS THE NINE MONTHS DESIGN PERIOD ON THOSE YOU'RE MUTED. THESE PARTICULAR PROJECTS, BOTH OF THEM BOTH OF THESE WATER MAINS WERE LOOKING AT THE FUNDING. UM, HEARING AT THE AT THE SRF FOR AUGUST. 20 22ND 2022. AND THEN THAT MEANS WE COULD START CONSTRUCTION THE MONTH AFTER THAT, SO WE COULD GO INTO BIDDING IN SEPTEMBER OCTOBER AND BEGIN CONSTRUCTION MADE IN DECEMBER OF 2022. OKAY, SO THAT WOULD BE A YEAR. SO A LITTLE MORE THAN A YEAR. YEAH, YEAH, WE HAVE TIME. JUST.

SELF SUFFICIENT. AND MY QUESTION IS. WITH THE OLD CARS. WILL THOSE BE? SO WITH THE OLD CARS, UH WHAT OUR GOAL IS BECAUSE THERE ARE OTHER THINGS THAT WE NEED TO SURPLUS OUT.

YOU KNOW THINGS, YOU KNOW EQUIPMENT THAT WE HAVE THAT'S OUTLIVED ITS USEFULNESS. IT'S NOT JUST ITS VEHICLES. WE GOT OTHER STUFF OVER THE WARNING. SURE PLANT LIKE THESE OLD WATER METERS THAT NEED TO GO OR BE SCRAPPED OR SALVAGE FOR SALVAGED, SO WE'LL BE BRINGING BACK SOMETHING AT A LATER DATE. AND OBVIOUSLY, IT'S LIKE A PUBLIC PROCESS.

AND SO IT MIGHT TAKE MORE THAN SIX MONTHS. BUT THESE VEHICLES DON'T SHOW UP. IN A MONTH OR SO. IT TAKES TIME. SO. AND RECENTLY, OTHER CITIES HAVING. DEALING WITH MORE THAN SIX MONTHS BECAUSE AT THE FLORIDA LEGAL CITIES, I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THE ENTERPRISE. UM. GUY AND HE STATED THAT. CITIES ARE TAKING. IT'S TAKING LONGER FOR STATE.

AND IF THE COUNCIL DECIDES TO DO THIS, UH, WHAT WE DO KNOW IS THAT THE FIRE PROGRAM REQUIRES THAT 80% OF THE PROCEEDS GO BACK TO THE SRF PROGRAM.

EVERY YEAR. UH, THE COUNCIL HAS BEEN. AGGRESSIVE AND HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN GETTING FUNDING APPROPRIATIONS FROM THE STATE. SO, UH, MARTIN COUNTY ALLEGEDLY DELEGATION, UM, COMMITTEE WHICH IS COMPRISED OF OUR STATE LEGISLATIVE LATE OUR STATE LEGISLATORS, UH, REPRESENTATIVE SNYDER AND STATE SENATOR HAROLD AND I BELIEVE REPRESENTATIVE OVER DOOR WILL BE THERE. ON SEPTEMBER 15TH SO PLEASE NOTE IN YOUR CALENDARS THAT THAT MEETING WILL TAKE PLACE ON

[01:20:04]

IT'S FOR THE DESIGN IS FOR THINK ALL OF UPTOWN ALL OF MHM. BECAUSE WE, UH WE GOT A GRANT FROM WE HAD WE RECEIVED A CDBG GRANT WHERE WE'RE GETTING AT CDBG GRANT TO DEAL WITH SEMINOLE. SPECIFICALLY SPECIFICALLY. YEAH, SO WE STILL GOT OTHER WORK TO DO? YES SOUND HERE? YES, THIS IS FOR THE UPTOWN AREA. ENERGY CHRIS COMEDY IS ONLINE AND WE HAVE OUR AND WE HAVE OUR OUR OUR LOBBYISTS. CHRIS CARMEN E. WITH GREAT ROBINSON. HE'S HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR. IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT COMES UP RELATED TO THESE ITEMS, I'M CERTAIN THAT THEY WILL BE ASSISTING US WITH THIS MATTER ONCE WE GET IT PAST OUR SITE, TERROR 15 DATE, BUT UH, JUST LIKE TO FINISH, YOU KNOW, LET'S SAY COMPLETE THE IN HOUSE UP HERE SINCE WE ALREADY GOT THE MONEY TO START. THAT'S MY THINKING, YOU KNOW, TO COMPLETE AND THEN BRANCH OUT, BUT THAT'S MY THINKING PROCESS. TO COMPLETE IT. OF THE $700,000 NOT GOING TO PLEAT COMPLETE UPTOWN, IS IT? OK UM, MR MANAGER PLATES. JIM, THE COUNCIL. IF I MAY YOU GO RIGHT AHEAD. THE VILLAGE IS CURRENTLY. APPLYING FOR TWO GRANTS THROUGH THE CDBG. BOTH OF THEM ARE GOING TO LIKELY BE IN EXCESS OF $10 MILLION.01 IS FOR THE GRAVITY, SEWER INFILTRATION AND INFLOW. REPAIRS THROUGHOUT THE VILLAGE THAT YOU SAW IN THE LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES LAST YEAR AND THE OTHER IS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE, A ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE WERE JUST DISCUSSING. SO THE, UH THAT PROJECT WOULD OMIT THAT ONE SECTION OF SEMINOLE STREET BECAUSE THAT'S BEING FUNDED SEPARATELY UNDER THE CDBG PROJECT THAT WE'VE ALREADY RECEIVED FUNDING FOR HIM. SO PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW THE DATE? WE WERE HERE IF WE GOT FUNDED. THESE MIDDLE DATE DEADLINE IS SEPTEMBER 15TH. AND I BELIEVE OF THIS YEAR AND I BELIEVE THE DEADLINE FOR US TO HERE IS, UH, SPRING OF NEXT YEAR. I BELIEVE IT'S LIKE MARCH. MHM. OKAY? YEAH. THANK YOU, MR ARCHER BELT. YES, MAN. THE. UPTOWN DRAINAGE AND ROADWAY PROJECTS. I KNOW THAT BECAUSE. HELPING FOR WITH THE PANDEMIC. WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING WITH OUR PROJECT AND SPLIT IT IN HALF.

IT WAS LIKE THEY DID SIGN PHASE. AND THEN AFTER THAT, THE SHOVEL READY PHASE. UM AND THEN WE DID GET THE WHAT WAS IT 300,005? WHAT WE GOT FROM THE STATE LAST LEGISLATIVE. THIS YEAR. YES UH 3 50 FROM THE STATE WITH THE 3 50 MATCH FROM THE VILLAGE. OKAY, SO THAT THAT WOULD BE, UH, 800,000. 700,007. TOWARDS DESIGN AND SURVEY. AND YES, MA'AM, DOES THAT DOES THAT COMPLETE OUR WHOLE DESIGN FOR THE UPTOWN? NO, MA'AM. NO, MA'AM. HOW MUCH IS UPTOWN DRAINAGE? WE DON'T KNOW YET. UM, WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH A DESIGN FAST. NO WE OKAY? NO,

[01:25:05]

THAT WOULD BE THE DESIGN OF THE REMAINDER OF THE PROJECT. BUT THIS 700,000 IN OUR KICK OFF MEETING WITH THE D O T THAT WE WILL ALREADY HAVE UNDER THE STATE APPROPRIATION THAT WILL BE STAND ALONE MONEY AND SO WE WILL DESIGN $700,000 WORTH OF THE UPTOWN IMPROVEMENTS USING THAT, AND THEN THE BALANCE OF THE DESIGN WOULD BE UNDER THE GRANT. WITH A SEPARATE SET OF DRAWINGS. MHM. SO THE CONSTRUCTION FEES. SOMETHING SEPARATE. IT IS IT IS MADAM MAYOR AND LET ME JUST JUMP IN THERE REAL QUICK. OKAY SO WE'RE RIGHT NOW WE ARE. WE ARE HAVING DISCUSSIONS WITH. TWO DIFFERENT ENGINEERING FIRMS ON. GOING AFTER ADDRESSING THE UPTOWN DRAINS RAILWAY PROJECT BECAUSE THE $700,000 THAT BILL MENTIONED 3 50 FROM THE STATE APPROPRIATION 3 50 FROM OUR MATCH. IS NOT ENOUGH TO DO DESIGN AND SO WE'RE RIGHT NOW, IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO BREAK IT UP AND PHASES WHERE WE CAN MAXIMIZE. EVERYTHING SO WE'LL HAVE A FACE ONE WHERE WE'LL DO DESIGN. AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A FACE TO. WELL, WE'LL GO AFTER CONSTRUCTION MONEY. KIM LEE HORN. WE HAVE A PERSON THAT KIM LEE HORN THAT WE HAVE A MEETING WITH. I THINK TOMORROW MORNING TOMORROW. I'M SORRY. AUGUST 25TH. ON HOW WE'RE GOING TO, UH UM. BREAK UP THE PROJECT SO THAT WE CAN USE ALL THE MONEY BECAUSE, LIKE BILL SAID, F DOT WILL NOT ALLOW US TO SPEND MORE THAN WHAT WE'RE REQUIRED TO UNDER THAT AGREEMENT. FOR DESIGN AND WE'RE GOING TO BREAK IT UP IN A WAY WHERE WE CAN IF WE GET AWARDED THE GRANT MONEY. THAT WE'RE GOING AFTER THAT WE CAN PAY FOR THE PROJECT IN PHASES, AND SO ALL THAT'S RIGHT NOW WE ARE IN. FORMULATION STAGE, SO THAT'S WHY YOU'RE NOT GETTING VERY CRISP ANSWERS FROM ANYONE. UM SO THAT'S JUST TRYING TO ANSWER THAT. WE DON'T WE CAN'T TELL YOU. ALL OF THAT ABOUT THE UPTOWN DRAINS RAILWAY PROJECT. WE KNOW IT'S AN IMPORTANT PROJECT BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT BE ONE OF OUR PRIORITIES. IT IS STILL IN OUR HOPPER IS SOMETHING WE'RE STILL LOOKING AT, AND WE HOPE TO HAVE. SOMETHING CONCRETE HERE. MAYBE IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER WE TALKED WITH THESE ENGINEERING GROUPS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE OUR APPLICATIONS IN THE ORDER. SO OKAY? DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY STILL IN THE PLANNING STAGES? ANYONE AND THAT WOULD THAT UPTOWN WOULD COVER ALL UPTOWN. ARE WE CLEAR ABOUT THAT? INCLUDING INCLUDING THE. THE SWELLS, NOT IS IT AS WELL AS IT? YES, MA'AM. YEAH.

OKAY? COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS THANK YOU. UM. THE CITRUS BOULEVARD WATER AND SEWER EXTENSION. THAT WAS ON LAST YEAR'S LIST HERE. AT A COST OF ABOUT A MILLION. YEAH, AND COUNCILWOMAN THOMAS, THAT IS MM THAT'S A MISSTATEMENT ON THE COVER SHEET. ON THE COVER SHEET IS HAS A MILLION DOLLARS. BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE BODY OF THE DETAILS, IT'S ABOUT A $5 MILLION PROJECT, INCLUDING UM, DESIGN. SO THE TOTAL PROJECT INCLUDING DESIGN IS ABOUT FIVE WOULD BE FIVE MILLION. MR ARCHER BILL. YES, MA'AM, AND THAT WAS NOT JUST THE MAIN EXTENSION THAT INCLUDED TANK EGE AND RE PUMP FACILITIES OUT THERE SO THAT WE COULD, UM, PROVIDE FIRE PROTECTION AND POTABLE WATER ALL THE WAY ALONG THAT QUARTER. THAT CORRIDOR REACHES HOW FAR. IT WOULD REACH OUT TO THE FAIRGROUNDS AND THE POTENTIAL. UH I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S I THINK IT'S OUT IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN NOW, BUT THERE'S DISCUSSIONS THAT THERE MAY BE A EDUCATION CENTER OUT THERE ALSO. OKAY, SO IF THAT IS OUT THERE WOULD THAT, UM, INFORMATION. MAKE US MORE APPEALING TO GET MONEY TO RECEIVE MONEY OR IF THAT IS OUT THERE. TO GET FUNDING AN ORDER TO GET THAT WATER AND THAT SERVICE OUT THERE. I THINK, MR CARMODY WILL BE DETAINED HIM UP WITH HER. I'M SORRY WOULD BE IN A MUCH STRONGER POSITION.

[01:30:03]

UM IT'S A HUGE PROJECT OUT THERE. THAT IS ALSO, UM. LIKE MR ARCHER BELT EXPRESSED THAT IT IS OUT IN PUBLIC THAT THERE MAY BE SOME AND EDUCATION. UM. PORTION TO THAT OUT THERE BUILDING GOING ON SO THAT TYPE OF A THING. WOULD THAT. PROJECT SAY IT AN EDUCATION CENTER OUT THERE. WOULD THAT BE, UM, LOOKED UPON MORE FAVOURABLY IN GETTING MONEY. TO FUND SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IF I THINK SO, IF THE PROJECT WITH SUPPORT INFRASTRUCTURE WHAT IS WHICH IT SOUNDS LIKE IT DOES, WHICH WOULD BETTER ENABLE. THAT EDUCATION PROJECT THAT YOU'RE SPEAKING OF GET OFF THE GROUND AND FILLED OUT THEN. YES. UM, AND BACKING UP TO THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE AS WELL. THERE IS THE RESILIENCY FUND THAT THE LEGISLATURE PUT IN AT 500 MILLION. THOSE APPLICATIONS ARE DUE SEPTEMBER. 1 UH, TO GET ON THE RANK LIST FOR NEXT YEAR.

THEY REQUIRE MATCHES, BUT THAT THAT IS. DRAINAGE PROJECT WOULD ALSO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THAT, UM, IF WE CAN GET ON THAT LIST, AT LEAST AS I UNDERSTAND IT, BUT THE UM BUT YES TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. IF WE TIE IT TO THE EDUCATION FACILITIES, THIS WOULD BE INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT THAT. IT'S SORT OF A TWOFER, RIGHT? YOU HAVE JUST NEEDED NEEDED INFRASTRUCTURE FOR YOUR SEWER SYSTEM. AND THEN AS WELL, IT WOULD SUPPORT UM, EDUCATION FACILITY THAT COULD BE CRITICAL FOR THE REGION OR THE AT LEAST CERTAINLY THE CITY AND THE COUNTY. OKAY. THANK YOU. HELP THEM A DOLLY. THANK YOU, MADAM MAYOR. UM I KNOW THAT AT, UH, LAST YEAR WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES, UM, IT WAS IMPORTANT. THAT WE FOCUS ON.

MAYBE ONE, UM. ASK ONE FINANCIAL ASK, AND SO I THINK THAT WE SHOULD. UH FOCUS ON THAT. AND WHATEVER THE PROJECT THAT WE DECIDE BECAUSE. AS I WAS LOOKING AT THE PRIORITIES FROM LAST YEAR. A LOT OF IT. UM UM, WAS AGAIN PARTNERING WITH THE FLORIDA LEGAL CITIES, THINGS THAT WE HAVE MADE ADDED. BUT AS FAR AS THE FINANCIAL REQUEST UM. WANTED TO ASK THE COUNCIL OR PROPOSE. WHAT DO YOU GUYS SEE ONE PROJECT THAT WE CAN, UM NAIL DOWN TO SAY THAT THIS IS WHAT WE WANT TO UM, MOVE FORWARD WITH. MHM. SO THIS IS A QUESTION TO THE COUNCIL COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS WELL. LISTENING TO THE DISCUSSION. THERE HAS BEEN MOVEMENT. AND THERE HAS BEEN, UM FUNDING. ON TWO OF THOSE THREE ITEMS. TOP THREE ITEMS THERE. SO THE ONE THAT HAS NOT HAD WHICH AT THIS POINT. WITH THE INFORMATION IS COMING FORWARD WOULD MAKE IT MORE OF FAVORABLY. LOOKED UPON AND I THINK WOULD BE THE CITRUS BOULEVARD WATER AND SEWER EXTENSION. WITH THE INFO. LIKE I SAID, THE INFORMATION THAT'S COMING FORWARD. I THINK WE WOULD BE, UM, IN A BETTER POSITION. TO GET FUNDING. FOR THAT, WITH THE INFORMATION THAT THAT'S COMING OUT, AND IT'S NEEDED OUT THERE. SO THAT WOULD BE MY THING, BECAUSE, LIKE I SAID, THERE'S BEEN MORE MOVEMENT ON TWO OF THOSE THREE. THAT IS THE NEXT THING UP AND WITH LIKE WITH THE INFORMATION, IT MAKES IT. MAKES IT KIND OF A. PRETTY THING TO OR A FAVORABLE THING TO ENCOURAGE AND TO SUPPORT ANYBODY ELSE? ARE YOU SEEING FOR THIS TO BE? YEAH. OH GO AHEAD. GO AHEAD, COUNSELOR. DON'T GO IF I MAY ASK. AS FAR AS GETTING FUNDED. WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND? AT THIS POINT? THAT WOULD BE EASIER FOR US TO GET FUNDED BY THE HAND? I WENT TO THE LEGISLATIVE GUY NOW. BELIEVE THAT WAS FOR ME, IS THAT IS THAT RIGHT? OKAY THANK YOU. UH I THINK THE SEWER THE SEWER CONNECTIONS AND UPGRADES IS A GOOD PROJECT. IT HAS A LOT

[01:35:05]

AND I'LL GIVE THE FLOOR TO COUNCILMAN DALLAS. YEAH, I AGREE WITH YOU. I WAS THINKING, UM, ABOUT ALL THE PROJECTS THAT WE SEE. AND, YOU KNOW, UM. I THINK AS WE ARE SOLIDIFY WHO WE ARE AS THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, I THINK IS VERY, VERY, VERY IMPORTANT TO FOCUS ON, UM WHAT'S HAPPENING FOR OUR RESIDENTS? AND YOU KNOW THIS GRAVITY SORE IMPROVEMENT, I THINK IS GOING TO UM, HELP, UH, MAKE MAKE OUR COMMUNITIES SAFER BECAUSE IT'S MORE SANITARY AND PROFESSIONAL, YOU KNOW, DONE CORRECTLY. SO, UM. BUT I WANTED TO GET EVERYBODY'S PERSPECTIVE.

BUT UM, IF MHM. IF THERE IS NO OBJECTION TO IT. WE CAN HAVE THE GRAVITY SORE IMPROVEMENT.

BE OUR FIRST PRIORITY AND THE CITRUS BOULEVARD BE OUR SECOND. ALONG WITH THE OTHER. YOU KNOW, FLORIDA LEGAL CITIES. UM UM, LEGISLATIVE ACTION ITEMS. WELL, THOSE THOSE THOSE THOSE LEGISLATIVE ACTION ITEMS ARE FROM LAST YEAR. OH WELL, YEAH, WHATEVER THEY DO, SO I DON'T WANT YOU TO. YEAH, THAT'S NOT. OR NOT, I JUST I JUST I JUST PROVIDED THE PACKET FROM LAST YEAR BECAUSE I FIGURED THAT THE COUNTY THE COUNCIL WOULD. WOULD LOOK AT THE PROJECTS ALSO, UH TO THE MAYOR'S, UH, ISSUE. WE ARE ACTUALLY APPLYING FOR APPROXIMATELY $11 MILLION TO DO, UH, GRAVITY SORE IMPROVEMENTS THROUGHOUT THE VILLAGE. IT'S ABOUT $11 MILLION. AND SO WE'VE RETAINED KINLEY HORN AND AMOUNT OF, I THINK $14,000 TO HELP US.

THERE'S FORGOT THE NAME OF THE GRAND DON'T HAVE INFORMATION RIGHT NOW, BUT WE ARE ACTIVELY PURSUING THAT RIGHT NOW. THAT IS ONE OF THE MEETINGS THAT WILL BE HAVING ON WEDNESDAY,

[01:40:02]

WHICH WAS THE ONE THAT THE MAYOR WAS TALKING ABOUT. I'M JUST SAYING THE NUMBER THREE RIGHT? YOU GOTTA BE ABLE TO MERGE SOMETHING IN BECAUSE WE AIN'T GUARANTEE THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET ANY OF THE $11 MILLION. I MEAN, I'M NOT A NOVICE TO GRANT WRITING. SO I'M JUST SAYING. SO WHAT DO WE DO IF THAT FAILS? YOU'RE GOING GOING TO WAIT FOR THE OTHER MONEY HE WAS TALKING ABOUT, AND THEN. ADDITIONALLY TO THAT, JUST TO JUMP ON VICE MARK CLARK'S. YOU KNOW, WE HAVEN'T EVEN TALKED ABOUT THE, UH, REPAIRING TO HOLD WATER, SO I THINK. SO I FEEL THAT. THERE'S A LOT OF MONEY RIGHT NOW WITH ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL. I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF KINKS AND GET THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO DO, BUT ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL. ON THAT INFRASTRUCTURE. WE CAN PROBABLY GO AND SEEK OUT MORE MONEY ON THIS BECAUSE I. IF I HAD MY GOES AND OTHER PEOPLE HAD BACKUPS, AND YOU KNOW, THE 1.5 MILLION IS JUST ON THE INDUSTRIAL SECTION WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT. AT THE PARK. WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT UPTOWN.

WE'RE NOT TALKING AND THEN THIS COMMUNITY IS GOING TO GROW AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR. YOU KNOW OUR RESIDENTS COMPLAINING. WELL, YOU GUYS DID AND TAKE CARE OF US. YOU WANT TO GROW? PEOPLE NEED HOUSES. WE UNDERSTAND, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IS DOWN TO WRITE. HOW ARE WE GOING TO BRING HOUSES WHEN SOME HOUSES STILL GET BACK UP IN THE BACKYARD? CAN'T DO THAT. YOU GOTTA FIXED INFRASTRUCTURE FIRST, AND I UNDERSTAND. NUMBER TWO, BUT IN REALITY, IT'S A COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. IF I WANT MORE IMPACT, I'M GOING TO IMPACT MY RESIDENTS, WHICH ON A DAILY BASIS, THEY LIVE HERE. AND SO I'M HERE FOR THE CONSTITUENTS. SO MY. MY AREAS. PROJECT NUMBER THREE JUST BECAUSE IT'S A DIRECT EFFECT.

TO OUR CONSTITUENTS, AND THAT'S MY DUTY NUMBER TWO. IT'S. THIS 11 MILLION IS NOT GUARANTEED.

DO YOU HAVE IT IN WRITING THAT WE'VE BEEN AWARDED THAT MONEY? AND THEN THREE. THERE'S A LOT MORE MONEY COMING OUT ON A FEDERAL LEVEL, AND WE JUST GOT TO BE REALLY ATTENTIVE AND LOOKING FOR IT. ANYONE ELSE ON THE COUNCIL? ANYONE WHEN I MAKE A MOTION TO FORWARD. YES, MA'AM. I'LL, UH I'LL MAKE A MOTION. TO APPROVE THE 2022 LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES WITH THE FUNDING REQUESTS FOR PROJECT NUMBER THREE, WHICH IS THE GRAVITY STORE IMPROVEMENT TO REDUCE THE OVERFLOWS AND STOP FLOODING. AND THEN. HAVE THE CITRUS BOULEVARD, WHICH IS PROJECT NUMBER TWO, UM NASSER EXTENSION TO BE OUR SECOND. OF COURSE WITH THE 2022. FLORIDA LEAGUE OF CITIES CITIES LEGISLATIVE ACTION ITEMS. DO I HAVE A SECOND? WHAT? NO, THAT'S OKAY. GO AHEAD. AND FOR A SECOND, THEN I'M WE CAN DO JUST MORE DISCUSSION. I HAVE A SECOND SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION BY THE COUNCIL. QUESTION. SO IF WE DO A ONE AND TWO THAT MEANS WE'RE GOING TO BE GOING AFTER BOTH OF THEM. AND I GUESS THAT MAY BE A

[01:45:03]

THIS YEAR. THEY DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT ON THE LEGISLATIVE APPROPRIATION. THERE WAS A 50 50 MATCH REQUIREMENT. IS THAT GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT YEAR ALSO MHM. POSSIBLY IF YOU RECALL IT, IT WASN'T AN EXPLICIT MATCH REQUIREMENT. UM, BUT IT WAS VERY MUCH. INDICATED WITHOUT ANY KIND OF WRITTEN REQUIREMENT THAT THERE BE A MATCH. WHAT? WHAT THERE WAS WAS A IF YOU ASK FOUR MILLION IN THE HOUSE, AND THE HOUSE WAS ONLY WILLING TO GIVE YOU 500,000. YOU'D BE OKAY. IF YOU IF THEY WERE ONLY IF THEY WERE GOING TO GIVE YOU 499,000. YOU WOULDN'T BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE HOUSE BUDGET SO AND THAT WAS AND THAT WAS PARTLY BECAUSE IN THE PAST, YOU'D SEE A LOT OF TIMES. THE BUDGET CHAIRS OF THE VARIOUS TYLO'S TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF VARIOUS CITIES AND ENTITIES WOULD WOULD FUND A PROJECT THAT 100 GRAND THAT INITIALLY HAD IT. $3 MILLION. ASK. AS A PLACEHOLDER, SO IT BE ELIGIBLE IN THE FINAL BUDGET WHEN ALL THE REAL NEGOTIATIONS BEGAN, AND THE HOUSE TOOK A POLICY OF UM. IF IT'S NOT FUNDED, AT LEAST 50% OF WHAT THEY WERE ASKING IT WOULD NOT BE ELIGIBLE AND THAT BASICALLY IT FORCED LESS PROJECT FORCE A LOT OF PROJECTS OUT UNLESS CAME IN ON THE HOUSE SIDE. YES UNOFFICIALLY BECAUSE OF LAST YEAR'S BUDGET CONSTRAINTS WHEN IT STARTED SESSION, AS YOU RECALL IT SORT OF THE TAIL TO CITIES IN THE BEGINNING OF SESSION. IT WAS THE WORST OF TIMES WE HAD THE PANDEMIC WAS RAGING. OUR BUDGET PROJECTIONS WERE ANYTHING BUT ROSY, ALTHOUGH THEY WERE IMPROVING AND WE WERE NOT SURE WHAT THE FEDERAL AID WAS GOING TO BE. BY THE END OF SESSION. THE BUDGET THAT ARE GENERAL REVENUE PROJECTIONS WERE CONTINUING ON AN UPWARD INCLINE. AS AS THE PANDEMIC WAS IMPROVING WITH VACCINES AND, OH, BY THE WAY, THE FEDS SENT US ABOUT $10 BILLION.05 BILLION OF WHICH WAS PUT INTO THIS BUDGET LAST YEAR, AND FIVE BILLION IS LEFT FOR THIS COMING YEAR. SO EVERYTHING CHANGED LAST YEAR. THAT BEING SAID. I THINK GOING INTO THIS SESSION ASKS OF $500,000 OR LESS ARE GOING TO BE MORE FAVORABLE, AT LEAST IN THE HOUSE BECAUSE THAT'S ABOUT THE SWEET SPOT FOR THEM, UM. AND THEN IF WE'RE GOING TO BE ASKING FOR MORE, WE JUST NEED TO BE ABLE TO BACK IT UP WITH A MATCH AND WITH A GOOD CASE, UH, BUT IN THE SENATE, IT'S THOSE RULES ARE A LITTLE LESS CONGRUENT. YOU CAN HAVE PLACED PLACEHOLDERS. SO IF YOU WHETHER, IF THE HOUSE HAS A REQUIREMENT OF A MINIMUM, THE SENATE COULD JUST PUT 100 OR 200,000 IN JUST TO GET YOUR PLACEHOLDER AND SO THAT YOU'D BE ELIGIBLE. BUT THE ANSWER YOUR FIRST QUESTION BILL. NO, THERE'S NOT AN ABSOLUTE MATCH REQUIREMENT, BUT IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, AND WE KNOW FOR A FACT SOME PROJECTS BECAUSE THEY HAD $0 IN THE MATCH CATEGORY. NOT EVEN A 50 50, BUT JUST NOT EVEN LIKE A $2 TO THE 10. UM WE'RE JUST JUST DISQUALIFIED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T PUT ANY OF THEIR OWN MONEY INTO IT. NOT AS ASK. I THOUGHT THE LAST TIME AROUND. WE WERE BASICALLY TOLD THAT, UM,

[01:50:04]

PREFERABLY I WOULD GO IN THE PROJECT NUMBER THREE JUST. HEAD ON DO THAT IF WE NEED A. MAKE IT SMALLER MOTION IN THE SECOND ON THE TABLE FOR YEAH. PROJECT NUMBER THREE AS THE PRIORITY AND PROJECT NUMBER TWO, THE CITY'S BOULEVARD SLASH. SORE FOR THE SECOND. YEAH, SO ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION BY THE COUNCIL OF NOT ANY PUBLIC COMMENT.

COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, I BROUGHT TO YOU A DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS PROGRAM WORKSHOP AND FROM THAT, AH, THE COUNCIL CAME TO NOTICE THAT THE. DEFINITION IN OUR PROCUREMENT CODE FOR A PREFERRED LOCAL BUSINESS OR LOCAL VENDOR, LOCAL VENDOR ITSELF INCLUDED ALL WITH THE MARTIN COUNTY. AND SEEMED TO BE A DESIRE OF THE COUNCIL TO CHANGE THAT. WHERE A LOCAL BUSINESS WOULD BE SPECIFICALLY DEFINED AS A BUSINESS WHOSE PRIMARY OFFICE IS LOCATED HERE IN THE VILLAGE, AND THAT IS THE PRIMARY CHANGE OTHER THAN. PLACING IN THE APPENDIX OF THIS PROCUREMENT DOCUMENTS. OUR OTHER PROCUREMENT POLICY, WHICH IS FOR C D. B J SPENDING.

RIGHT? DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? IF NOT DO I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE? SO MOVE

SO IF YOU COULD BE PREPARED TO BRING PROJECTS FORD HAVE A VILLAGE MAJORS RECOMMENDED LIST, BUT THERE'S STILL AT LEAST A MILLION AND A HALF DOLLARS THAT THAT WE DID NOT.

Code Enforcement Programming and Council Directives.

UM UM, BACK ON JANUARY. 20TH COUNCIL MEMBER GIVES THOMAS MET WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT STAFF.

AND AT THAT MEETING, UH, THE COUNCIL MEMBER EXPRESSING CONCERNS FOR ELDERLY, DISABLED, LOW INCOME AND VETERAN RESIDENTS THAT MAY BE UNABLE TO RESOLVE CODE VIOLATIONS. AND SHE PROPOSED A NEW PROGRAM CALLED IT TAKES A VILLAGE AND THE PROGRAM SHE CAN TALK MORE ABOUT, BUT SHE ALSO THOUGHT ABOUT HAVING A PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL AGENCIES LIKE THE YMCA BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA. AND, UH, AND WANT AND LOCAL CHARITIES AND OTHER PUP. UH, PRIVATE ENTITIES. AND UH AND IT WAS TO DO A NUMBER OF THINGS DO COMMUNITY CLEANUPS.

UH, NO. DO COMMUNITY CLEANUPS AND HELP PEOPLE REPAIR THINGS AS A RESULT OF GETTING COAT CODE ENFORCEMENT ACTION FROM THE VILLAGE. AND THEN, UH, VICE MAYOR CLARK, SHE REQUESTED SHE DID A RIDE ALONG WITH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT STAFF. AND IDENTIFY SEVERAL SAFETY ISSUES AND CODE INFRACTIONS AND AT THE CONCLUSION OF HER RIGHT ALONG. SHE WANTED US TO IDENTIFY CODE ENFORCEMENT PROGRAMS THAT COULD DO PRETTY MUCH KIND OF SIMILAR THINGS. UM. TO ELIMINATE TRASH AND DEBRIS IN THE VILLAGE AND DO COMMUNITY CLEANUPS. AND SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, WE HAVE, LIKE TWO KIND OF THINGS GOING AT THE SAME TIME WE GOT. YOU KNOW, TO COUNCIL MEMBERS TALKING ABOUT COMMUNITY CLEANUPS, WHICH I THINK IT'S A GREAT THING. AND THEY'RE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT, SO I WANTED TO GET WITH THE COUNCIL TO SEE KIND OF HOW DO WE EITHER MERGED THIS STUFF TOGETHER SO THAT STAFF IS NOT IMPACTED IN A WAY WHERE WE'RE. YOU KNOW, TWO SHIPS GO IN DIFFERENT WAYS OR KIND OF PUT TOGETHER PROGRAM THAT KIND OF INCORPORATES BOTH OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS WISHES AND WE CAN ROLL OUT TO THE PUBLIC ALSO, UM. PART OF THE VICE MAYORS. UH. REQUEST WAS THAT WE DEAL WITH SOLID WASTE PICKUP SCHEDULES FOR BOOKER PART RESIDENTS, AND I JUST REALLY THINK THAT WE COULD. WE COULD JUST GET WHAT MARTIN COUNTY AND ASKED THEM TO DEAL WITH THAT, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW OUR AGREEMENTS WITH MARTIN COUNTY WE DO NOT HAVE IN EVERY WITH, UM, WITH, UM SPANISH MINT. AND THAT IS SO RESPONSIBILITY MARTIN COUNTY, AND SO THAT'S THE WAY THEY ARE A CURRENT AGREEMENT, UH, STRUCTURED WITH MARTIN KELLY. FOR SOLID WASTE SERVICES. WE GO THROUGH THEM IN ORDER TO GET THINGS DONE WITH WASTE MANAGEMENT. DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE ANY COUNCIL. WOMAN. YEAH.

IT WAS THOMAS. I WOULD ACTUALLY LIKE TO WAIT FOR THE VICE MAYOR TO COME BACK IN. BECAUSE THIS IS YOU KNOW, PART OF THIS IS HERS. BUT TO SPEAK. TO THE FIRST THAT FIRST PARAGRAPH. I KNOW. I GUESS IT'S BEEN. BEEN ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO. IT WASN'T TOO LONG AFTER WE GOT GOING THAT THE VICE MAYOR. AND MYSELF. WE PARTICIPATED IN FORT PIERCE. IN A DAY OF COMMUNITY.

CLEAN UP. GIVE BACK. AND WHAT THEY DID. IT WAS A HUGE OUTPOURING. UM. AND WHAT THEY DID. THEY HAD PEOPLE SIGN UP BEFOREHAND, AND I THINK IT WAS. IT TAKES A VILLAGE. I THINK THAT'S WHAT THEY CALLED IT. RESTORING THE VILLAGE. UM AND THEY HAD AND THEY HAD. SPECIFIC PROJECTS. LIKE, UH, PAINTING SOMEONE'S HOUSE. CLEANING SOMEONE'S YARD REPAIRING SOMEONE'S PORCH. WHATEVER IT HAPPENED TO BE, AND THEN EVERYBODY THAT SIGNED UP. THEY ASSIGNED PEOPLE. OKAY, THIS IS GOING TO BE. YOUR PROJECT FOR THE DAY I HELPED PAINT

[02:05:03]

SOMEONE CAN APPLY. WERE. LET'S JUST SAY PAINT PAINT IS EXPENSIVE. TO PAINT THEIR HOUSE. IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE? THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO. I KNOW WE'VE BEEN USING CIVILIANS FOR VARIOUS THINGS, BUT I THINK WE CAN. IF WE HAVE OTHER. PLACES WHERE WE CAN APPLY FOR SOMETHING ELSE AND HAVE THIS AS ONE OF OUR C B G. SO THAT WE CAN SET UP LIKE A PROGRAM WHERE OUR RESIDENTS CAN. OKAY THEY DON'T HAVE THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY FOR HURRICANE SHUTTERS, OR THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY FOR PAIN OR THEY DON'T YOU KNOW THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY TO REPAIR. SOMETHING IN THEIR HOUSE. IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT A PROGRAM WHERE THEY CAN APPLY FOR ASSISTANCE. TO FIXED HER HOUSE. UM BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE HERE TO A SYSTEM. MAY I? MAY I SAY SOMETHING? YES. OKAY, SO. THESE ARE ALL GOOD PROGRAMS AND WE'VE HEARD FROM COUNCILMAN GIBBS, TOM'S. THE VICE MAYOR HASN'T REALLY SAID MUCH ABOUT IT, AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE WROTE IN THE AGENDA ITEM IS ACCURATE, OR AT LEAST. TO WHERE SHE WANTED TO GO WITH IT. THE ONLY THE ONLY CONCERN I HAVE, AND IT'S A RESERVATION THAT I HAVE IS THAT YOU KNOW WHEN WE DEVELOP THESE NEW PROGRAMS, THESE ARE GOOD PROGRAMS WITH THE COMMUNITY. BUT IT IT IT CREATES A WORKLOAD FOR THE STAFF AND WE ARE HERE TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY. AND YOU KNOW WHAT I'M HEARING FROM THE MAYOR IS. HOW YOU FUND HOW CAN YOU FIND SOME OF THIS AND YOU CAN FUND IT THROUGH CDBG, BUT CDBG FUNDS. THEY'RE VERY THEY'RE VERY YOU. THEY. THEY'RE CONSTRAINED TO CERTAIN THINGS SO LIKE YOU COULD DO MINOR HOME REPAIR PROGRAMS WHERE YOU CAN REPAIR THINGS PHYSICAL THINGS TO A HOUSE. UM AND I REMEMBER, YOU KNOW, AND THIS WAS. MORE THAN 20. YEARS AGO. WE HAD A PROGRAM IN THE COMMUNITY THAT I WORKED IN WHERE, UH, WE GAVE OUT RECYCLE PAINT. YOU KNOW, AND THE RECYCLE PAINT WAS USED

[02:10:03]

RIGHT NOW. WE HAVE FRED FLOWERS, WHO. WHO HE GOES AFTER THE GRANTS FOR US AND. HE'S ACTUALLY MANAGED A GREAT THAT'S HOW HE GETS HIS FEE ON MANAGING AND I'M AND I'M GOING TO BE CALLING HIM PROBABLY TOMORROW OR EITHER NEXT WEEK AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT. DOES HE MANAGE PROGRAMS LIKE THIS AND IF WE WERE ABLE OR SUCCESSFUL IN GETTING THE CDBG FUNDS, COULD HE ACTUALLY MANAGE THAT FOR US? BUT I'LL LOOK INTO AND TRY TO BRING SOMETHING THAT'S ALL IN ONE LEG. OUT OF THE AGENDA ITEM. THE OTHER PART IS WHAT THE VICE MAYOR IS BRINGING UP.

WHICH IS GOING TO REQUIRE SOME RESEARCH ON STAFF TIME. THAT'S NOT SOMETHING WE CAN DO. YOU KNOW, IN A WEEK OR TWO AND, UM, WE JUST NEED SOME TIME TO, YOU KNOW, STAFFORD PROPERLY AND GET THIS STUFF DONE. COUNCILMAN DOLLY YEAH, I WAS GOING TO ASK BOTH COUNCIL MEMBERS IF THEY COULD LAY OUT, UM, THEIR VISION FOR THE PROGRAM. YOU KNOW WHO WOULD QUALIFY? UH. HOW MANY DAYS OR YOU KNOW IS THERE IS IT A ROTATION STATION BASES OR YOU KNOW MORE SPECIFICS? I THINK THAT IT HELPED ME KIND OF UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHERE THEY'RE TRYING TO GO. SO. UM, FOR ME, I THINK BEFORE WE GET STAFF. DOWN AND YOU KNOW BUSY. JUST GET MORE CLARIFICATION FROM. EACH COUNCIL MEMBER WHAT THEY ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE. I THINK THAT WAY AT OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING. WE CAN PUT THIS ON THE AGENDA DATE. WE TALK ABOUT IT AND THEN MOVE FORWARD WITH NOW. ASSISTING THE STAFF, OR, YOU KNOW, HAVING THE STAFF ASSISTS WITH YOU KNOW, THE AND. THE DAY TO DAY STUFF, SO, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF. WHO? YOU KNOW, I'M JUST ASKING IF THEY COULD OR NOT, BUT I THINK THAT FOR ME THAT I HELP. UM YOU KNOW, UH, LIKE, FOR EXAMPLE, IF WE SAID WE'RE GOING TO DO TO COMMUNITY CLEAN UPS A YEAR AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT OBVIOUSLY WE CAN HANDLE. OR IF WE SAID, BUT NOT ON A MONTHLY BASIS, BUT NOT ON MY RIGHT.

RIGHT RIGHT. WE CAN DO LIKE A ONE YEAR BECAUSE WE CAN COORDINATE WITH MARTIN COUNTY, AND I'M CERTAIN THAT THEY WOULD PROVIDE US DUMPSTERS AND ROLL OFF CONTAINER SERVICES AND THE STAFF COULD COULD MANAGE SOMETHING LIKE THAT WITHOUT A PROBLEM. UM AND IT'S EASY FOR US TO GET, YOU KNOW, A LIST OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS. AND YOU KNOW WHEN, WHEN OUR CO COMPLIANCE OFFICER IS. IS OUT THERE. HE COULD JUST HAND OUT STUFF AS THEY LOOK HERE.

ALTERNATIVE COMMUNITY RESOURCES. I DID IT WHEN I WAS IN GOAL ENFORCEMENT. I WORKED INTO ENFORCEMENT. UM WHAT'S WHAT'S NOT EASY IS IF WE. IF WE'RE REQUIRED TO MANAGE A CDBG PROGRAM. UH THAT'S GOING TO BE THAT'S GOING TO REQUIRE A PERSON OR A CONTRACTOR TO DO IT ON OUR BEHALF. AN AIRPLANE IT CONTRACTORS THAT MANAGE THESE KIND OF PROGRAMS WHERE WE DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT, AND MAYBE THEY CAN BE PAID FOR OUT OF CDBG FUNDS. BUT AGAIN, THAT'S GOING TO REQUIRE SOME RESEARCH. AND THAT'S SOMETHING I COULD BRING BACK TO YOU, BUT I JUST

[02:15:02]

COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS THANK YOU. UM I'M NOT TALKING. THAT JUST KIND OF TOOK A LIFE OF ITS OWN CDBG. ANYTHING YOU SAID THAT THAT WAS ONE LEG OF IT. THE FIRST ONE IN THE SECONDS OF VICE MAYOR. THAT WAS NOTHING. THE FIRST ONE. I WANT SOMETHING, AND I EXPECTED SOMETHING SIMPLE.

SOMETHING LIKE YOU SAY THOSE RESOURCES THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO GIVE OUT TO THE TO THE TO THE.

THE RESIDENT, THE PROPERTY OWNER IN ORDER TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM THAT THEY HAVE, UM YOU KNOW IF THEY NEED REPAIRS ON THE INSIDE, IF YOU KNOW THAT THAT'S A WHOLE ANOTHER THING.

I'M JUST I'M JUST TRYING TO KEEP IT. SIMPLE. UM. DIDN'T EVEN MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT COMMUNITY CLEANUPS. THIS IS HAS TO DO SOLELY WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT, DEALING WITH RESIDENTS THAT HAVE ISSUES ON THEIR HOME AND WE'RE TALKING. YOU KNOW, AN 85 YEAR OLD PERSON WHO CANNOT GET OUT AND DO. TALKING THE SENIOR CITIZENS. UM THAT CANNOT GET OUT AND DO AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR PROPERTY LIKE A. 40 YEAR OLD OR EVEN A 50 YEAR OLD SENIOR CITIZEN. UM.

THAT YOU KNOW, OR A DISABLED PERSON. YEAH. MY MIND IS MORE SIMPLE. I'M NOT ASKING FOR ANY MONEY. I'M JUST ASKING FOR, YOU KNOW A POLICY IN PLACE THAT LIKE YOU SAY, YOU HAND OUT. I THINK THAT WE PARTNER WITH. CHRIST FELLOWSHIP. WE GET THEIR PARAMETERS OF WHAT THEIR WORK DAY IS OKAY, AND IT CAN HAND A CARD TO LIKE YOU SAY CODE ENFORCEMENT, ALL FOR HANDED CARD AND SAY, WELL, NICE FELLOWSHIP. DOES YOU KNOW OR HAVE HAVE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS THAT YOU KNOW THERE OVER A CERTAIN AGE OR YOU KNOW THEY HAVE A LIMITED INCOME OR THEIR, YOU KNOW A VETERAN OR JUST DISABLED? YOU HAVE YOU KNOW YOU HAVE YOUR CRITERIA. OF THE PEOPLE THAT YOU'RE WANTING TO HELP AND REACHING THE COMMUNITY THAT DON'T HAVE THOSE RESOURCES THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO JUST KIND OF STEER THEM IN THE CORRECT WAY, SO THEY'RE ABLE TO NEGATE ANY ANY OF THOSE IMPACTS THAT THEY MIGHT BE HAVING FROM CODE ENFORCEMENT. I'M JUST SIMPLE.

I'M NOT TALKING, YOU KNOW, LET'S. YEAH, THAT THAT THAT SOUNDS SIMPLE. I MEAN, IT DOES, UM, DEVICE MAYOR, YOU GOT SOMETHING? ME SOME BEST PRACTICE FROM DIFFERENT CITIES OF A BEAUTIFICATION PROGRAM. THAT'S WHAT I ASKED. I DIDN'T ASK THE VILLAGE TO TAKE ON NO CLEAN UP EVERY MONTH. I'M DOING THAT WITH THE RESIDENTS THAT'S IN THE COMMUNITY, RIGHT? I JUST NEEDED A ROADMAP, BUT I'LL DO THE RESEARCH MYSELF. HOW THE VILLAGE WILL REWARD PEOPLE FOR KEEPING THEIR YARDS OR THEY STREET CLEAN. JUST LIKE THE SPANISH PEOPLE ALREADY GOT THE GROUP. SO THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO CULTIVATE. IN THE COMMUNITY YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, NOT FOR THE VILLAGE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. I JUST NEED TO KNOW IF YOU KNEW SOMEBODY HAD A ROADMAP. THAT'S ALL SO I DON'T HAVE TO REINVENT THE WHEEL. COUNCILMAN DOLLY. YES, MA'AM. I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. OH OH, YEAH. THIS IS FROM THE OTHER SORRY. OKAY, SO THE STAFF HAVE THERE. I GOT ENOUGH. ENOUGH, OKAY? AND I WAS THE ONE I BROUGHT THE C B. I KNOW.

DON'T WORRY. I'VE BEEN RESEARCHING. WELL, YOU KNOW, 11. GOOD THING OUT OF THIS TOPIC IS A DAY OF ACTION. VILLAGE COUNCIL. YEAH WE SHOULD PARTNER UP. WE HAVE MR CHRIST FELLOWSHIP THAT'S WILLING TO DO THAT. 10. MHM. 10. TO GET INVOLVED. OH, RIGHT. RIGHT, BUT THE VILLAGE. MM HMM. THAT'S MY PURPOSE AND GOING OUT WITH THE COURT ENFORCEMENT SO OBVIOUSLY AND SEE THEM. I WOULD. I WOULD DO MY OWN RESEARCH TO DO WHATEVER IT IS. UH, THAT I NEED TO DO. OKAY? ANY OTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO THE NEXT NO. MR

[19.  

Voluntary Employee Vaccination Incentive Program

INFECTION RATES THROUGHOUT. FLORIDA, MAINLY WITH THE DELTA VARIANT OUT THERE. AND THERE

[02:20:07]

I WANT TO PLEASE GET THAT KIND OF TREATMENT AS I DON'T WANT TO DO IT AND THEN THE OTHER STAFF THAT MAYBE DON'T VACCINATE LIKE UPSET AND SAY ALL SCHOOL WHAT ABOUT US? WHAT ARE WE GOING TO GET? AND I GET THE WHOLE IDEA, BUT I FEEL LIKE. IF WE'RE GONNA DO RIGHTS AS FAR AS ANYBODY IN THEIR RIGHT, I THINK SHOULD BE UP TO THE STAFF TO SEE IF THEY WON'T EVEN WANT TO PROGRAM.

FIRST OF ALL. MR MANAGER, CAN YOU PLEASE. SAY IF THIS IS GOING TO BE A VOLUNTARY, IT'S VOLUNTARY. I MEAN, WE'RE NOT SHOVING ANYTHING DOWN ANYBODY'S THROAT, SO NO ONE'S RIGHTS ARE BEING TAKEN AWAY, SO WE WOULD SO THAT'S THAT'S NOT OUR PROPOSAL. OUR PROPOSAL IS IT'S STRICTLY VOLUNTARY. IT'S NOT REQUIRED. IF YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN VACCINATED, WE JUST GIVE THE EMPLOYEE DAY OFF. I THINK IF YOU DID THAT OTHER EMPLOYEES WOULD SEE THAT WE GAVE HIM A DAY OUT TO EMPLOYEES WHO HAVE NOT BEEN BACKED THAT QUARTERBACKS NEEDED. AND THAT WOULD THAT WOULD MAKE PEOPLE. SAY YOU KNOW WHAT? I'D LIKE TO HAVE A DAY OFF. LET ME GO AND GET VACCINATED. AND WE ALLOWED THEM TO LEAVE WORK AND GO GET VACCINATED AND THEN HAVE A DAY

[02:25:02]

BECAUSE I RECOGNIZE I MEAN PERSON. I FEEL LIKE I FEEL THAT WAY. YEAH, AND LIKE I SAY, I.

THAT'S BASICALLY TELLING THEM. HEY WE'RE GOING TO GIVE YOU SENTENCE FREE. IF YOU DO WHAT WE WANT TO DO. I JUST DON'T AGREE THAT THEY DID. I THINK YOU SHOULD HAVE A STATE FOR THE STAFF THINGS BEFORE YOU SOMETHING LIKE THIS. WE COULD. WE COULD DEFINITELY SURVEYED THE STAFF AND ASK THEM WHAT THEIR THOUGHTS ARE, IF THAT'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO. I'LL DEFINITELY DO THAT. I JUST I JUST KNOW THAT WE HAVE A SMALL OFFICE. AND IF SOMEONE, UH, ENDS UP WITH KOBE 19, THEN WE CAN'T RUN IT. UH THERE ARE INSTANCES OF THIS HAPPENING RIGHT HERE IN ANY TOWN. AND I KNOW THAT IF LIKE, FOR EXAMPLE, OUR OUR FRONT COUNTER. I HAVE MANDATED THAT OUR STAFF WERE FACE MASK IN THE BUILDING IN THEIR WORKSTATIONS THAT RUNS AFOUL OF THE GOVERNOR'S EXECUTIVE ORDER, BUT WE HAVE TO OPERATE HERE. A VILLAGE AND. IN ORDER FOR US TO DO THAT. I CAN CONTROL OUR EMPLOYEES AND THAT'S WHAT I'VE DONE NOW IF THE COUNCIL IS DOESN'T WANT ME TO DO THAT, YOU KNOW WE CAN DO THAT. BUT I THINK THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THAT WE CAN OPERATE RIGHT NOW. AND AT THE VILLAGE, BUT IT'S JUST A PROPOSAL. SO THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING, AND I'LL TAKE WHATEVER DIRECTION YOU GUYS COUNT THEM AND DOLLY.

YEAH. YOU KNOW, I THINK I KNOW BECAUSE THIS IS SUCH A SENSITIVE ISSUE. UM. MAYBE HAVING THE EMPLOYEES PRESENT. THEIR CARD SO THAT NOBODY KNOWS, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW THEY CAN STILL HAVE THEIR IDENTITY. UM BUT FOR THE VACCINATED FOLKS WHO HAVE ALREADY GOTTEN VACCINATED. YOU'RE PROPOSING ONE DAY OFF. UM. CURRENTLY AND IF THEY'RE NOT VACCINATED, YOU'RE GIVING THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A DAY OFF TO GO GET VACCINATED. IS THAT CORRECT? THEY COULD THEY COULD GO AND GET VACCINATED. THEY CAN JUST LEAVE WORK AND GO. YES AND THEN THEY'LL GET A DAY OFF. OKAY, SCOTCHING, SO. YOU KNOW, UM, YOU OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE TO OPERATE. I THINK WE HAD WE HAD A SCARE WHEN WE WERE AT THE OTHER BUILDING. WE ALWAYS HAVE SCARCE. I KNOW. AND, UH. AS AGAIN AS WE'RE GROWING. UM WE WANT TO, YOU KNOW, BE SAFE SO.

I THINK THIS IS A GOOD PROGRAM. I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER. UH. WHATEVER YOU IMPLEMENT, BECAUSE AGAIN, YOU'RE YOU'RE THE DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS MANAGER. SO YOU KNOW, I, UM, I'LL SUPPORT YOUR YOUR GUIDANCE. MM. COUNCIL AND GIVES THOMAS THANK YOU. UM. SOMEONE'S PERSONAL HEALTH DECISION. IS JUST THAT PERSONAL. AND WHETHER YOU DO OR YOU DON'T GET THE JAB. PEOPLE FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT IT. WHEN THEY MAKE THEIR DECISION. THEY FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S THEIR HEALTH, AND THEY MAKE. THEY'RE MAKING THE BEST DECISION THAT THEY FEEL LIKE THEY ARE FOR THEM. I DON'T FEEL LIKE WHEN SOMEBODY MAKES THAT DECISION. HAVING A DAY OFF.

IT'S NOT GOING TO SWIM. I JUST DON'T THINK THAT. NO FOR ME IF I MAKE A DECISION, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IT'S JUST LIKE NO. THERE MAY BE SOME PEOPLE THAT YEAH. OKAY WELL, YEAH, LET ME GO DO IT, BUT I JUST IT'S A VERY PERSONAL THING, AND PEOPLE FEEL VERY STRONGLY ABOUT IT.

AND WHEN YOU GET INTO GET INTO THAT. I DON'T THINK THAT DOING THAT WILL MAKE MAKE UP A DIFFERENCE. I JUST. DON'T I COULDN'T VOTE FOR IT. VICE MARY CARD. I MEAN, IT'S AN INDIVIDUAL CHOICE, BUT IT'S VOLUNTEER. I MET. THE OTHER ENTITIES ARE GIVING PEOPLE INCENTIVES TO GET THE TO GET THE VACCINE. ALL ACROSS. WHOLE U. S OF A. BUT IS IT AS AN INDIVIDUAL TOURS SO AND. IT'S A VOLUNTARY THING. I'M NOT IS VOLUNTEER. I RESPECT EVERYONE'S DECISION IF THEY WANT TO GET THE JOB OR NOT. IT'S AN INCENTIVE. THEY WANT TO TAKE IT.

THEY TAKE IT IF THEY DON'T LEAVE ON THE TABLE, IT'S OPTIONALS. I KNOW I'M NOT REMOVING ANYONE'S RIGHT. THEY CAN STILL STAND FIRM BELIEVER OF BEING I'M NOT GETTING THE

[02:30:05]

WE'RE NOT TRYING TO, YOU KNOW, BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT IF MARTIN COUNTY IS DOING IN A CITY OF STORIES, CITY OF STORIES DOING IT, EVERYONE IS DOING IT AND THE WHOLE COUNTRY BECAUSE. THE DELTA IS NOT THE VARIANT IS NOT. IT'S NOT GONNA. IT'S GETTING HARDER AND HARDER. AND IF WE CAN CONVINCE SOMEONE TO ACTUALLY CONSIDER IT BECAUSE OF THIS OKAY? GOT ONE MORE PERSON.

IT'S NOT GOING TO HURT. SO, UM. MY PERSONAL OPINION. I THINK WE SHOULD OFFER IT. IF NOT, WE CAN OFFER SOMETHING THAT IS. GIFT CARD OR SOMETHING, SOMETHING THAT WILL MOTIVATE THEM TO GO.

UM, MY QUESTION IS. WOULD THIS BE ALSO OFFERED TO THE ONES THAT ARE ALREADY VACCINATED? YES, THE WAY. THE WAY I SEE THE INCENTIVE PROGRAM WORKING IS YOU KNOW IF YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN VACCINATED, THEN YOU GET A DAY OFF. YOUR COWORKER HAS NOT BEEN VACCINATED. THEY SEE THAT YOU GOT A DATE. WHAT? YOU YOU YOU'RE ENTITLED TO A DAY OFF. AND THEN IT MIGHT MAKE THEM CONSIDER. UM UH, THE VACCINE AND WE'RE NOT REQUIRING IT. WE WILL NOT TELL OUR EMPLOYEES THAT THEY HAVE TO GET IT NOW. THAT'S WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE MAY HOLD WITH. WITH ALL OF THIS, BUT RIGHT NOW, UM. YOU KNOW, THIS IS JUST A VOLUNTARY THING. THERE ARE COMMUNITIES AND THERE ARE GOVERNMENTS AND BUSINESS BUSINESSES THAT ARE REQUIRING THE VACCINE AND I DON'T I'M NOT TRYING TO GO ON TO GO OUT ON A TANGENT. BUT WE'RE NOT THERE YET. THIS IS A VOLUNTARY PROGRAM AND I THINK IT'S A GOOD ONE, AND IT WILL ENCOURAGE FOLKS TO DO IT. AND I CAN'T MOVE FORWARD WITH IT UNLESS THE COUNCIL SAYS OKAY, AND I SEE TO THAT MIGHT SUPPORTED I SEE TO THAT MIGHT NOT SUPPORT IT, AND I SEE ONE THAT MIGHT SUPPORT IT, BUT NOT SURE. YEAH, I SEE THE SAME THING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DO, DO I DO I JUST GO BACK TO MALLS AS THEY FORGET IT. SORRY. I BROUGHT IT UP OR SO MAYBE WE CAN JUST GET A HEAD NOD. YOU KNOW TO BECAUSE WE NEED AT LEAST THREE PEOPLE TO SAY NO, NO, I'LL PUT IT BACK ON. I'LL PUT IT BACK. I'M SORRY. THE AGENDA I WILL PUT IT BACK ON THE AGENDA. BUT I WANT TO KNOW IF THERE'S SOMETHING YOU. YOU EVEN IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD DO, AND IF IT'S SOMETHING YOU WOULD DO, THIS WILL COME BACK ON ANOTHER AGENDA, AND WE'LL VOTE ON IT AT THAT TIME, BUT I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT. IF YOU GUYS THIS IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL. WELL, JUST NOT EVEN BRING IT BACK UP. COMPLIMENTS ZONE, I THINK TOUGH TO STAFF ABOUT IT FIRST. AND YET THERE HAVE BEEN BETTER. I REALLY DON'T THINK IT'S THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE. TALKING TO STAFF ARE WITH OR WITHOUT ITS YOU GET IT? YOU DON'T. KEEP ON GOING.

YOUR DAY WILL GO ON WITH THE VACCINE OR WITHOUT THE VACCINE. I CAN'T LIKE. COUNCILWOMAN GIVE US, THOMAS SAID, CAN'T CHANGE ANYONE'S MIND. IF THEY'VE THEY REALLY SAID THEY DON'T WANT TO GIVE VACCINE. I CAN'T CHANGE IT. BUT IF I CAN CHANGE SOMEONE THAT'S HALFWAY HALFWAY. WELL.

HEY, I'M. IT MADE MY DAY, BUT, UM, SO DO I HAVE A CONSENSUS? YES. NOW I SAY. YEAH, PUT IT ON THE AGENDA. YES, I SAY YES. IT'S OPTIONAL. IT'S VOLUNTARY OR NOT MANDATING ANYTHING.

WHERE I'M NOT TAKING ANYONE'S RIGHT AWAY. SO I SAY YES. YOU HAVE TO PUT IT ON YOUR GYM? YES. PUT IT ON THE WHAT? A, UM SEPTEMBER 9TH. OKAY ANY ANNOUNCEMENTS BY THE COUNCIL?
