Municipal Property Tax Exemptions Presentation by the Martin County Property Appraiser's Office

WE HAVE MISSED JENNY FIELDS OF PROPERTY PRESIDENT WITH US AND HER ASSISTANT, MR CARL ANDERSON . WE'RE BOTH HAPPY TO HAVE THEM. IT WAS AT THE REQUEST OF OUR COUNCILWOMAN SUSAN GIBBS.

THOMAS. HE REQUESTS THEY COME BEFORE US AND TALK TO US ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON THE STATE LEGISLATURE AND HOW IT IMPACTS THE VILLAGE. COME ON UP. GOOD EVENING. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'M JENNY FIELDS FOR THOSE OF YOU. I HAVE NOT MET. THANK YOU FOR INVITING US HERE TODAY. UM AS HE SAID CARL ANDERSON'S MY CHIEF DEPUTY. HE'S GOING TO BE HERE TO EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT TO YOU.

ABOUT SOME OF THE MUNICIPAL EXEMPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR PROPERTY OWNERS THAT YOU KNOW, IN ORDER TO REALIZE THEM AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE BENEFITS . THEY DO HAVE TO BE ADOPTED BY YOU. SO WE'RE GOING TO EXPLAIN HOW THAT IS IMPACTED AND HOW THAT WORKS WITH THE VALUES AND HOW IT IS A BENEFIT TO YOUR RESIDENTS. SO WITH THAT I WILL TURN IT OVER TO CARL ANDERSON.

WELCOME. GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE. MY NAME IS CARL ANDERSON. I'M THE CHIEF DEPUTY WITH THE MARTIN COUNTY PROPERTY PRESSURES OFFICE . THANK YOU ALL FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME OUT AND SPEAK WITH YOU THIS EVENING. WE WERE ASKED TO COME AND SPEAK ABOUT POTENTIAL PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS AND WHAT TYPE OF IMPACT THEY WOULD HAVE TO THE TAX BASE IF ADOPTED. UM BEFORE I'VE BROUGHT A LOT OF GOOD INFORMATION ABOUT THAT, BUT BEFORE WE GET INTO THE OPTIONAL EXEMPTIONS, I WANT TO FIRST PROVIDE AN OVERVIEW OF THE EXISTING EXEMPTIONS THAT WE HAVE

[00:05:03]

ALONG WITH THE VEHICLE REGISTRATION AND A VOTER INFORMATION CARD OR SIGNED VOTER AFFIDAVIT IF THEY DON'T VOTE AND LASTLY, IF SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER CARD. ALL RIGHT. SO NOW THAT WE'VE NOW THAT YOU'VE GOT A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION, HERE'S A SNAPSHOT OF ALL THE EXEMPTIONS THAT EXISTED IN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN FOR THE 2021 TAX ROLL AND HOW THEY IMPACT IMPACTED THE TAXABLE VALUE. SO YOUR BIGGEST REDUCTION COMES FROM LOCAL GOVERNMENT PROPERTY. WHICH ARE OWNED PROPERTIES OWNED BY THE VILLAGE, THE COUNTY AND THE SCHOOL BOARD. THERE'S A 3 37 OF THOSE, AND THAT TOTALS UP TO ABOUT 19.1 MILLION. THE NEXT HIGHEST OR CONSTITUTIONAL, CHARITABLE AND RELIGIOUS PROPERTIES. WHICH ARE YOUR CHURCHES AND NONPROFITS THAT HAVE A 513 C 76 OF THOSE AND THAT TOTAL EXEMPTED VALUES ABOUT 18.8 MILLION. AND THE 3RD AND 4TH SLOTS ARE THE ORIGINAL AND ADDITIONAL HOMESTEAD EXEMPTIONS.

SORT OF COMPARE THE SAVE OUR HOMES CAP FOR THE HOMESTEAD PROPERTY. UM THE HOMESTEAD PROPERTY HAS A TOTAL REDUCTION VALUE OF 29.9 MILLION. THIS IS THAT SAVE OUR HOMES BENEFIT I WAS DISCUSSING EARLIER. SO THIS IS EVEN MORE THAN THE GOVERNMENTAL EXEMPTION CATEGORY . SO SINCE SAVE OUR HOMES CAP IS NOT AN EXEMPTION. IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN THIS TABLE. BUT IT'S AN ASSESSMENT REDUCTION, SO IT DOES REDUCE THE TAX BASE FOR THE VILLAGE. ALL THE EXEMPTIONS IN THIS TABLE ARE AUTOMATIC, MEANING THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO BE ADOPTED AND THEY APPLY TO ALL TAXING AUTHORITIES. THIS NEXT SLIDE SHOWS A LIST OF ADVIL OR EXEMPTIONS THAT ARE OPTIONAL.

AND THIS IS UP TO THE COUNTY OR MUNICIPALITY TO ADOPT THEM. THESE ARE SIX EXEMPTIONS THAT CAN BE GROUPED INTO THREE CATEGORIES, WHICH ARE LIMITED INCOME SENIOR EXEMPTION.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, EXEMPTION AND HISTORICAL PROPERTY EXEMPTIONS. THE FOCUS OF MOST OF

[00:10:06]

FOR THE ADDITIONAL HOMESTEAD FOR PERSONS 65 OLDER. THE STATUTE ALLOWS A TOTAL REDUCTION OF UP TO $50,000 THE COUNTY'S ORIGINAL ORDINANCE IN 2000 AND FOUR APPROVED EXEMPTION AMOUNT OF 10,000. TWO YEARS LATER, THE COUNTY ADOPTED ANOTHER ORDINANCE, INCREASING THE AMOUNT TO 25,000. WHICH IS WHERE IT CURRENTLY STANDS. IN ORDER TO QUALIFY, A PROPERTY OWNER MUST MEET THE ELIGIBLE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE ORIGINAL 25,000 HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION. AT LEAST ONE OF THE OWNERS MUST BE 65 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER. ON OR BEFORE JANUARY. 1ST OF THE YEAR.

THE APPLICANT THE APPLICATION IS MADE. AND TO QUALIFY FOR 2022. THE 2021 HOUSEHOLD ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME FOR ALL PERSONS RESIDING IN THE HOUSEHOLD MUST NOT EXCEED $32,561, AND THIS AMOUNT IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE EACH YEAR. SO THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 2162 APPROVED LIMITED INCOME EXEMPTIONS. THROUGHOUT MARTIN COUNTY ON THE FINAL 2021 TAX ROLL. 27 OF THEM ARE WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN. THIS MEANS THAT THEY ALREADY HAVE THIS EXEMPTION, BUT IT ONLY IMPACTS THE COUNTY TAXABLE VALUE. IF THE VILLAGE WERE TO ADOPT THIS EXEMPTION, THESE PROPERTY OWNERS WOULD THEN BEGIN RECEIVING A REDUCTION TO THE TAXABLE VALUE THAT THE VILLAGE LEVIES AGAINST. FOR THE LIMITED INCOME SENIOR EXEMPTION, A LONG TERM RESIDENT AND LONG TERM RESIDENTS. THE STATUTE REQUIRES THE EXEMPTION TO BE FOR 100% OF THE ASSESSED VALUE, WHICH WILL ELIMINATE ALL TAXES FOR THE TAXING AUTHORITY THAT HAS ADOPTED IT. THE COUNTY ADOPTED THIS EXEMPTION IN 2013, WHICH IS WHEN I FIRST BECAME AVAILABLE. IN ORDER TO QUALIFY, THE PROPERTY OWNER MUST MEET THE ELIGIBLE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FIRST ADDITIONAL LIMITED INCOME.

SENIOR THEY MUST. ALSO THE PROPERTY MUST ALSO HAVE ADJUST OR MARKET VALUE. UM LESS THAN $250,000 IN THE FIRST YEAR THAT I QUALIFIES. AND THE OWNER MUST HAVE LIVED IN THEIR CURRENT HOME FOR 25 YEARS OR MORE AS A PERMANENT RESIDENT. THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 380 APPROVED EXEMPTIONS. THROUGHOUT MARTIN COUNTY ON THE FINAL 2021 TAX ROLL. FIVE OF THEM ARE WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN BOUNDARY. SO THESE FIVE ARE CURRENTLY HAVE ZERO COUNTY TAXABLE VALUE. BUT THEY STILL PAY TAXES TO THE VILLAGE. IF THE VILLAGE WERE TO ADOPT THIS EXEMPTION, THESE FIVE PROPERTIES WOULD NO LONGER PAY TAXES TO THE VILLAGE. TO SEE WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE. I PUT TOGETHER A TAX IMPACT ANALYSIS USING THE 2021 TAX ROLL AND THE VILLAGE FINAL MILLAGE RATE OF 1.6306. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 27 PARCELS IN THE VILLAGE THAT ALREADY QUALIFY FOR THAT FIRST LIMITED INCOME EXEMPTION. IF THE VILLAGE WERE TO ADOPT THIS EXEMPTION AT THE $25,000 LEVEL, IT WOULD REDUCE YOUR TOTAL TAX BASE BY $577,381 WHICH WOULD REDUCE YOUR TOTAL REVENUE BY $941. AND 36 CENTS. ADOPTING THE EXEMPTION AT THE 4 $50,000 LEVEL. WHICH FOR THE 27 PARCELS. WOULD NOT BE MUCH HIGHER THAN THE 25,000 AND THAT'S BECAUSE THE ASSESSED VALUE FOR THOSE PROPERTIES IS NOT VERY MUCH HIGHER THAN THE $25,000 SO THERE'S NOT A LOT OF ADDITIONAL DIFFERENCE. THE BOTTOM TABLE SHOWS THE IMPACT ANALYSIS FOR THE LIMITED INCOME . SENIOR THE 25 YEAR RESIDENT VERSION. THERE ARE CURRENTLY FIVE PARCELS IN THE VILLAGE THAT ALREADY QUALIFIED FOR THIS EXEMPTION. AFTER THE VILLAGE WERE TO ADOPT IT. IT WOULD REDUCE YOUR TAX BASE BY $113,997. WHICH WOULD REDUCE THE TAX REVENUE BY $185.86. ON THIS NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW EACH SCENARIO WOULD IMPACT AN INDIVIDUAL PROPERTIES TAX BILL. THIS EXAMPLE IS AN ACTUAL PROPERTY TAX BILL FROM SOMEONE IN THE VILLAGE. THE TOP SECTION SHOWS THE VILLAGE FUND AND WHAT THE NEW VALUES WOULD BE IN EACH HYPOTHETICAL SCENARIO.

SO THE CURRENT BILL VILLAGE PORTION OF TAXES IS $123, AND THAT'S SHOWN IN BLUE AND THE TOP TABLE. AND THE TOTAL BILL IS $806.03 THAT'S ALSO SHOWN IN BLUE AND THE BOTTOM TABLE. IF THE LIMITED INCOME SENIOR WAS ADOPTED AT 25,000. FOR THE VILLAGE PORTION OF TAXES WOULD

[00:15:03]

TO APPLY AT OUR OFFICE. DOES THAT? ANSWER YOUR SECOND QUESTION? YES OKAY BACK TO THE FIRST ONE WITH LEGISLATION. THERE IS, UM, A PACKAGE OF TAX LEGISLATION PACKAGE AND I THINK THE MAIN EXEMPTION, AND THERE HAS TO DO WITH, UM FIREFIGHTERS AND TEACHERS. EXACTLY THAT'S GOING TO BE ON REFERENDUM AND GO UP FOR A VOTE. I THINK IT NEEDS 60% APPROVAL. SO UM, I CAN'T SAY IF THAT'S GOING TO PASS OR NOT, UM, BUT I THINK IT IS ANOTHER $25,000 EXEMPTION FOR THOSE PROPERTIES. WE WERE ASKED TO TRY TO DO AND IMPACT STUDY FOR THAT WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO DO BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW. HOW MANY THERE ARE IN EACH TAXING AUTHORITY, AND WE WOULDN'T FIND OUT UNTIL THEY STARTED APPLYING AND LIVE, ACCEPTED THE ASSESSED VALUE OF. THAT'S RIGHT. MHM OKAY , 1000 WOULD ONLY APPLY TO ANYTHING ABOVE 100 TO 100. OKAY. AND THEN THAT. WOULD BE A REFERENDUM IN AUGUST. WE'RE IN NOVEMBER, DO YOU KNOW? IT'S A NOVEMBER NOVEMBER NOVEMBER.

Water Conservation Year-Round Landscape Irrigation Rule Presentation by Kathryn LaMartina of South Florida Water Management District

AND SO WE'RE LOOKING FOR, YOU KNOW, AQUIFER STORAGE AND RECOVERY DESALINATION NEW TECHNOLOGIES USING RECLAIMED WATER IN DIFFERENT WAYS. BUT UNFORTUNATELY, ALL OF THESE OPTIONS ARE COSTLY. LONG TERM SOLUTIONS. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO, UM. SO CONSERVATION, ON THE OTHER HAND, JUST REQUIRES A CONSCIOUS CHOICE. OKAY AND IT'S CLEARLY THE MORE ECONOMICAL ALTERNATIVE. IT'S LESS EXPENSIVE THAN DEVELOPING, YOU KNOW, AND BUILDING THESE NEW TREATMENT FACILITIES THAT REDUCES STRESS ON THE NATURAL SYSTEM. THERE'S NO BYPRODUCTS FROM TRADING WATER WHERE WE HAVE TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHERE TO PUT THOSE. YOU KNOW , IN THE ENVIRONMENT. IT'S EASY TO IMPLEMENT, YOU KNOW, WITH JUST UPDATING OLD PLUMBING FIXTURES OR CHANGING YOUR PERSONAL HABITS, AND IT'S RECOGNIZED AS ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE THING TO DO. WE'RE ALL TRYING TO DO OUR PART TO LIVE A LITTLE GREENER. AND USING LESS WATER ALSO MEANS USING LESS ENERGY. SO WITH CONSTANT CONSERVATION, THERE'S REALLY NOTHING NOT TO LIKE AND EVERYBODY CAN DO IT. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. AND THERE'S SEVERAL BENEFITS THAT COME WITH ADOPTING

[00:25:02]

THAT'S THAT'S IT. SO IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, JUST LET ME KNOW. ANY QUESTIONS FROM OUR COUNCIL.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT AND DOING THIS PRESENTATION. UM FOR YOU. IT WAS EDUCATIONAL FOR THE REST OF THE COUNCIL AND PUBLIC AS WELL. WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH VERY INFORMATIVE COUNCIL MEMBER, HERNANDEZ. THANK YOU. DON'T WE HAVE WATER COVERS CONSERVATION MONTH IN APRIL. IS THERE LIKE A RESOLUTION THAT WE CAN PASS? DO I CAN SEND YOU THAT TEMPLATE IF YOU WANT. OKAY, THANK YOU. AND THAT BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO COME AND ACCEPT IT. AND JUST SO YOU KNOW, MARK MARTIN COUNTY DOES THEY DO HAVE THIS ORDINANCE THEY JUST PASSED IT. A COUPLE MONTHS AGO, AND I BELIEVE IT'S SUPPOSED TO TAKE EFFECT ME FIRST. SO KIND OF UNDER THAT MS MARTINA DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE UNWELL OR USING VILLAGE WATER. I MEAN, DOES IT MATTER? IS THAT A CONSIDERATION OR IT'S NOT WITH THE RULE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WITH THE RULE. BUT THERE ARE THERE

Progress Report on the Saturday Shuttle by Chris Stephenson

SO THE SENIOR RESOURCE ASSOCIATION OUR MISSION IS TO PROMOTE INDEPENDENCE AND DIGNITY AND OUR COMMUNITY BY PROVIDING SERVICES TO OLDER ADULTS AND TRANSPORTATION. FOR ALL, WE RUN , THE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AND THE DOOR TO DOOR TRANSPORTATION IN INDIAN RIVER COUNTY. AND AS YOU'LL SEE, WE STARTED TAKING OVER THE DOOR TO DOOR TRANSPORTATION DISADVANTAGE.

PROGRAM IN MARTIN COUNTY IN 2018 NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO HOW DID WE? HOW DID WE GET HERE IN OCTOBER OF 2018? THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION APPROACH TO THE SENIOR RESOURCE ASSOCIATION AND SAID THE CURRENT CTC IN MARTIN COUNTY IS LEAVING AND WE WOULD LIKE YOUR HELP TO STEP UP AND TAKE OVER THAT ROLE. THERE WASN'T ANOTHER ANOTHER COMPANY THAT WAS JUST JUMPING TO DO IT. AND SO WE WERE ASKED TO TAKE OVER AND WE DID. WE WERE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT KAREN SAID WHEN SHE TOOK OVER WAS THAT SHE WANTED TO BRING THE INDIAN TOWN SHUTTLE BACK. THE PREVIOUS CTC HAD BEEN DOING IT FOR A FEW YEARS AND THEN HAD TO STOP. BUT THAT WAS ONE OF OUR GOALS WHEN WE TOOK OVER AS THE CTC AND MARTIN COUNTY IN 2018 IN MARCH OF 2019. WE RECEIVED A 53 10 GRAND FROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. THAT'S THE GRANT THAT WE STILL APPLY FOR EVERY YEAR THAT PAYS FOR 50% OF THE SERVICE. IN DECEMBER OF 2019. WELL LAST TIME I WAS DOWN HERE THE VILLAGE APPROVED FOR BOWMAN CONSULTING AND TO APPLY FOR THE SERVICE DEVELOPMENT GRANT THAT THE VILLAGE RECEIVES AND THAT PAYS FOR ANOTHER 25. OF THE OF THE SHUTTLE AND THE SHUTTLE STARTED IN MARCH OF 2020. AND I ACTUALLY STARTED IN APRIL OF 2020 ALREADY RECEIVED THE GRANT AND MARCH OF 2020 FEBRUARY OF LAST YEAR, WE WRAPPED THE SHUTTLE AND THE INDIAN TOWN LOGO. AND TO TODAY WE HAVE OUR HIGHEST RIDERSHIP RIGHT NOW. WE'RE YOU'LL SEE WE AVERAGE OVER 200 PEOPLE A MONTH ON THE ON THE SHUTTLE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO THAT THE STOPS THAT WE HAVE AN INDIAN TOWN OR AT THE LAUNDRY. THE HEAD START THE INDIAN ONE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE CIRCLE K GAS STATION, INDIAN RIVER STATE COLLEGE, THE LIBRARY , RYAN'S MARKET, THE FAMILY DRUGSTORE, INDIAN MOUND PARK ST LUCIE MOBILE VILLAGE. AND THEN IN STUART, IT'S UH, PUBLIX AND WALMART. AND SO THE WHOLE IDEA BEHIND THE SHUTTLE WAS THE MARTY THE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IN MARTIN COUNTY DOES NOT COME OUT TO INDIAN TOWN ON THE WEEKENDS, AND THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE IN INDIAN TOWN. WHO WOULD LIKE TO USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO GET INTO STEWART TO DO THEIR SHOPPING AND OTHER THINGS ON THE WEEKEND, AND THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SO THAT THE SHUTTLE IS THE PRIMARY MEANS FOR TRANSPORTATION FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE TO DO THAT TYPE OF SHOPPING. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. AND SO IT RUNS FROM EIGHT AM TO

[00:35:05]

HIS HEAD START BOOKING PART. YEAH I THINK THERE'S TWO COIN LAUNDRY IS BUDDHA PARK ALSO I BELIEVE SOMETHING. OH, OKAY. BUT THERE'S THERE. THERE'S ALSO THE NEW HOPE AREA. THAT WOULD BE REALLY NICE TO COVER TO STOP THERE. UM, BUT I DO THINK THAT UM, THIS IS MUCH NEEDED IN THE VILLAGE OF INDIAN TOWN, AND I LOVE THE SATURDAY BUS BECAUSE I ALWAYS SEE IT WHEN I'M COMING BACK FROM STEWART AND I ALWAYS SEE THE RESIDENTS GETTING OFF WITH THEIR GROCERY BAGS, SO THEY MUCH APPRECIATE WE BECAUSE IT'S FREE BECAUSE A PERSON THAT THERE'S PEOPLE THAT DO DO THIS FOR A LIVING IN A CHARGE 50 $75 FOR, UH, JUST TO TAKE THEM TO START AND HAVE THEIR GROCERIES, SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY'RE SAVING ON. AND I APPRECIATE THE SERVICE. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER STONE. YES ACTUALLY HAVE A LOT TO DO WITH HER QUESTION AS WELL. BUT WHAT I WAS THINKING IS , IF IT'S POSSIBLE, MAYBE WE COULD ADD A STOP AT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB AND NEW HOPE AS WELL.

I THINK THAT WOULD KIND OF BALANCED PARK AREA. WE CAN. IF THERE'S ANY STOPS NEEDED, LIKE

[00:40:01]

IT'S A CAN DO I BELIEVE AND PEOPLE ALWAYS GOING IN AND OUT OF THERE. AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB IS KIND OF CENTRAL LOCATED AS WELL. AND I'M SORRY. I DON'T KNOW THOSE LOCATIONS. BUT ARE THEY WITHIN THE WITH HIM WITHIN THE ROUTE CURRENTLY, OR IS IT A DISTANCE FURTHER? IT'S LIKE ONE MINUTE OUT. IF THAT UM. SO I MEAN, EVEN IF YOU DO GET A LOT OF CUSTOMERS FROM THE HEAD START PROGRAM. MAYBE YOU COULD JUST KIND OF MEET IN THE MIDDLE AND DO IT AT ROGERS STORE WHERE PEOPLE CAN WALK FOR EITHER FROM EITHER DIRECTION. AND I THINK THAT WOULD HELP. YOU KNOW THE CUSTOMERS? WELL, WE CAN LOOK AT THAT FOR SURE. UM, AND AS FAR AS LET'S SAY, GOING FROM UPTOWN TO A PARK OR FROM HITCHCOCK, TOO. LIKE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, FOR EXAMPLE, DO YOU GUYS HAVE LIKE CERTAIN TYPE OF IN VILLAGE ROUTE. NO IN FACT, CAN YOU THROW THIS SLIDE BACK ON THE ROAD ON IT SO THAT IF YOU DON'T MIND, PLEASE. JUST CURIOUS FOR THAT ONE. SO WHILE WE'RE WHILE WE'RE LOOKING FOR THE POWER POINT, THE I NOTICED THAT ST LUCIE VILLAGE WAS A STOP. AND THAT'S CURRENTLY OUTSIDE OF OUR MUNICIPAL BOUNDARIES. SO MAYBE WE COULD LOOK AT MAYBE ASKING THE COUNTY FOR SOME ASSISTANCE BECAUSE I KNOW THERE'S A NUMBER OF WRITERS THAT COME OUT OF THE PARK THERE. I MEAN, THAT WAS ONE OF THE STOPS THAT WAS REQUESTED.

ORIGINALLY THEY THOUGHT THAT A LOT A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT WERE RIGHT THERE. WE'RE TRYING TO GET INTO STEWART. RYAN. I THINK IT'S LIGHTS SIX. RIGHT? THAT JUST SHOWS THAT REALLY THAT? YEAH. IT DOESN'T SHOW THE STOPS. I'M SORRY. I THOUGHT IT DID. NO, WE DON'T HAVE THE ROUTE. ON THE NAMES THE NAMES, OKAY? YEAH BUT DEFINITELY, I THINK AT LEAST YOU KNOW ROGER STORE, NEW HOMES AND COIN LAUNDRY, OKAY? BE SUFFICIENT. ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER GIVES THOMAF GO WITH A STEP FURTHER. SPEAKING TO FUNDING YES, PRICES HAS HIT EVERYBODY REALLY HARD. SO DOES THAT MEAN THAT, UM HOW ARE YOU GUYS ABSORBING THAT COSTS ARE BECAUSE IT COSTS. I'M SURE IT'S REALLY GONE UP TREMENDOUSLY. SO IS THAT GOING TO CHANGE THE FUNDING THAT IS NEEDED FOR THIS PROGRAM MOVING FORWARD? IT COULD POSSIBLY, WE HAVEN'T WE HAVE STARTED TO EXPERIENCE IT, UM WE HAVE, YOU KNOW THE CONTRACT SITUATION THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW . IT'S STILL IN PLACE. UM I WOULD ANTICIPATE THAT THE COST PER MILE WILL GO. AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO JUST TAKE A LOOK AT HOW IT'S GOING TO AFFECT SERVICE ITSELF. DO WE HAVE TO ASK FOR MORE DOLLARS FIND OTHER DOLLARS FROM THE STATE? YET TO BE SEEN. I DON'T WANT TO CUT SERVICE, RIGHT? ABSOLUTELY SHORT . TIME OF SERVICE IS THE ONLY OTHER WAY OF SO THOSE OPTIONS IS IT EVER ON THE TABLE TO, UM, CHARGE FOR RIDERSHIP. NO. GOOD, OKAY? OKAY? TO PUT A FAIR ON THE BUS WOULD ACTUALLY COST US MORE MONEY THAN IT WOULD BE ELECTIONS THAT WE WOULD GET. WHAT WE WOULD HAVE TO DO TO COLLECT THAT DOLLAR. MURDERS. YOU APPRECIATE THAT ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE STAFF? THANK YOU GUYS. SO MUCH

[COMMITTEE REPORTS]

[00:55:06]

[COMMENTS BY VILLAGE MANAGER]

MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL THE A COUPLE OF THINGS IF WE CAN GET, UM CALLUS CHRISTINE'S BOWMAN'S POWER POINT UP. WE'RE GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN BOOKER PARK WITH THE BOOK OF PARK DRAINAGE, RIGHT WAY UPDATE AND WHILE WHILE WE'RE GETTING THAT TOGETHER, THE AH, COUNCILWOMAN GIVES THOMAS YOU TALKED ABOUT THE TAX EXEMPTIONS. I'M THINKING EVERYONE EXCEPT FOR THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OR YOU TALKING ABOUT ALL OF ALL OF THEM . I LOVE THEM THAT WE ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN FOR OUR VILLAGE RESIDENTS. I THINK WE SHOULD. OKAY AND COUNCILWOMAN HERNANDEZ. I WILL DEFINITELY FOLLOW UP WITH JOE CAPPER ON THE TRAFFIC CALMING SURVEY. THAT SHOULD BE ONGOING. HE WAS GIVEN DIRECTION TO DO THAT, SO WE JUST NEED TO GET A CONTRACT IN PLACE.

THE F DOT MAINTENANCE ISSUES. OBVIOUSLY, WE'VE BEEN HAVING WE'VE BEEN ON FDA TRYING TO GET THEM TO DO THINGS AND I WILL DEFINITELY FOLLOW UP WITH THEM ON THAT. THE TRAIL DRIVE IS A LITTLE MORE CHALLENGING BECAUSE YOU KNOW, WE, UM THIS IS THE AREA THAT WE DID SOME WORK IN A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, AND NOW THE EDGE OF PAVEMENT IS ERODING. AND WE WE'VE DONE SOME MINOR BMP OR BEST METRIC PRACTICE BY PUTTING UP SIGNS AS YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THERE. WHERE WE BOUGHT THE PROPERTY, BUT THAT'S JUST NOT GOING TO BE GOOD ENOUGH. IT'S GOING TO TAKE MORE OF A STRUCTURAL FIX THERE. AND WE CAN GET THAT. BUT I'LL FOLLOW UP WITH YOU GUYS AND GIVE YOU AN UPDATE AS SOON AS I CAN, PROBABLY BEFORE THE END OF NEXT WEEK, SO AWESOME. THANK YOU. SO, YEAH, SO IF WE CAN GET SO THIS BOOK, PART STREET AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS. I'M GOING TO BRING MR KYLE 16 UP. HE'S WITH BOWMAN. HE'S OUR PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR AND HE'S JOINED WITH ZACH. KARMA NINOS WITH BOWMAN. SO UM, COLLEGE, YOU CAN JUST WALK US THROUGH WHAT'S AN UPDATE AND WE WILL TRY TO GET THESE UPDATES AT LEAST EVERY MONTH OR SO. JUST WITH THE COUNCIL UPDATE ACCOUNTS OF WHAT'S GOING ON. SO GO AHEAD. COME GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY FIRST. I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE MYSELF. I'M KYLE SHASTA MEAN TAKING OVER FOR MR BILL ARCHRIVAL? HE LEFT BOWMAN ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO, AND I'LL BE REPLACING HIM HERE AT THE VILLAGE AS THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR I'M HERE TODAY TO DISCUSS THE BOOKER PARK STREET AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT WITH YOU GUYS. I KNOW THAT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF FEEDBACK FROM THE COMMUNITY ON IT, SO I KIND OF WANTED TO GO OVER SOME THINGS WITH YOU GUYS. I'M IN CASE YOU GET SOME PHONE CALLS, AND YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW HOW TO YOUR PREPARED SO YOU CAN RESPOND TO THEM IN THE FUTURE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO IMPROVE THE DRAINAGE FACILITIES AND THE ROADWAYS OUT THERE TO REDUCE THE FLOODING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE'S A COUPLE OF

[01:00:04]

CAN THE RESIDENT HAVE ANOTHER OR A SECOND DRIVEWAY ON ON THEIR PROPERTY. SO ON THE SCREEN, THERE'S TWO PICTURES HERE. THE ONE ON THE RIGHT IS THE FINISHED PRODUCTS, UM, OF THE PROJECTS THAT IS A CONCRETE DRIVEWAY WITH THE COVERT PIPE. AND A NEW DITCH INSTALLED ALONG THE STREET. THE PHOTO ON THE LEFT IS KIND OF HOW THE NEIGHBORHOOD CURRENTLY EXISTED. YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE ISN'T A DITCH THERE. IT'S HARD TO TELL FROM THE PHOTO, BUT THERE'S THERE WASN'T A CULVERT UNDERNEATH THAT DRIVEWAY SO IT DIDN'T REALLY ALLOW THE WATER WHEN IT RAINED TO GO ANYWHERE.

SO THE FIRST POINT IS THE DRIVEWAY CROWN. IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE ON THE RIGHT, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE HOW THE DRIVEWAY HAS LIKE THE PEAK OR THE HUMP THERE. AND A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ASKING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE AESTHETICALLY IT'S NOT TYPICAL. YOU KNOW, NORMALLY YOU WOULD SEE THE DRIVER WOULD BE FLAT, AND THAT WOULD BE THE CASE IF THIS WAS A NEW PROJECTS, BUT AGAIN BECAUSE THIS WAS A RETROFIT PROJECT. WE HAD TO WORK WITH SPACE THAT WAS AVAILABLE AND THE RIGHT OF WAY TO PROVIDE THE DITCH AND THE CULVERT PIPE SO BETWEEN THE STREET AND THE PROPERTY. THERE'S SO MUCH SPACE TO COME DOWN. WE HAVE TO PUT THE PIPE IN THERE AND THEN FROM THERE, YOU HAVE TO GO UP AND DOWN WITH THE DRIVEWAY. UM IT WAS DESIGNED TO ME AFTER YOU T STANDARDS, SO IT IS FULLY OPERATIONAL. AND, UM NO, THE CONTRACTOR IS NOT BUILDING IT INCORRECTLY THAT THAT IS ACTUALLY HOW IS DESIGNED IN THE PLAN, SO IT'S BEING DONE CORRECTLY. THE NEXT ITEM IS CONCRETE VERSUS GRAVEL. SOME OF THE RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN ASKING WHY DO I HAVE GRAVEL IN MY NEIGHBOR HAS CONCRETE. THIS HAS COME UP A COUPLE TIMES. THE ANSWER TO THAT IS THE DRIVEWAYS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AS THEY WERE BEFORE THE PROJECTS SO PROFESSIONAL SURVEYOR WAS HIRED. TO DO A SURVEY THE ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD THEY IDENTIFIED WHICH DRIVEWAYS WERE GRAVEL, WHICH WERE CONCRETE. BOWMAN WE ACTUALLY DID A VISUAL INSPECTION TO CONFIRM THAT ALL OF THAT WAS CORRECT. SO THE WAY THAT THE PROJECT WAS DESIGNED WAS TO REPLACE THOSE DRIVEWAYS AS THEY WERE. UM. NEXT ITEM CANNOT PARK ON THE STREET ANYMORE. YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE ON THE LEFT THAT UM PEOPLE WERE PARKING ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. AND THAT IS TRUE. NOW IT'S YOU'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET BECAUSE THE DITCHES ARE THERE. WHEN THE NEIGHBORHOOD WAS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED SITE. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG AGO WAS BEFORE MY LIFETIME , AT LEAST BUT THERE WERE THERE ACTUALLY WORSE WHALES OUT THERE AT ONE POINT AND JUST OVER TIME , THOSE SWELLS HAVE FILLED IN DUE TO EROSION AND SEDIMENT. UM AND IT'S PROVIDED AN AREA TO PARK THERE FOR PEOPLE, BUT. IN REALITY THAT THAT'S LIKE I SAID THE BEGINNING, THAT'S RIGHT OF WAY OWNED BY THE VILLAGE. AND THAT RIGHT OF WAY IS THERE AND AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE THINGS LIKE DITCHES TO ALLEVIATE THE FLOODING. SO JUST WITH THAT BEING SAID, YOU KNOW IT. THEY'RE KNOCKING AT A PARK IN THE STREETS ANYMORE BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE DITCHES THERE. THE NEXT ONE DRIVEWAY AND COLBERT PIPES ON VACANT LOTS. SO THERE ARE SOME VACANT LOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THOSE LOTS DID NOT GET DRIVEWAYS WITH THE PROJECT.

BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE A DRIVEWAY THERE TO BEGIN WITH. UM IF THE PROPERTY OWNER WOULD LIKE TO GET A DRIVEWAY ON THEIR PROPERTY, THEY CAN BUT IT WON'T BE PAID FOR BE PART OF THE PROJECT THAT WAS FUNDED BY AFTER BOT, THE RESIDENT. THEY CAN FILE FOR RIGHT AWAY APPLICATION THROUGH THE VILLAGE, AND THEY CAN HIRE A CONTRACTOR AND AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE. THEY CAN THEY CAN RECEIVE A DRIVEWAY AT THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY. THE FINAL THING IS, CAN I HAVE ANOTHER DRIVEWAY? I

[01:05:08]

PERMIT THROUGH THE VILLAGE AND SUBMIT DETAILS, INSPECTS OF HOW THEY'RE GOING TO DO IT AND THEN HAVE A CONTRACTOR PERFORMED THE WORK FOR THEM. YOU'RE WELCOME. UM, NEXT SLIDE. QUESTION. ANY QUESTIONS FROM OUR COUNCIL. HERNANDEZ. YES. UM, THAT. THAT'S RIGHT THERE. UM, CAN DURING, CAN YOU. LOOKS SO MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THE ICE. AW WHERE IT WAS REALLY DEEP AND I WOULD IT WAS DARK AND I COULDN'T I WAS SCARED THAT MY CAR WAS GONNA GO IN THE DITCH. SO I IMAGINE THE RESIDENTS. I LIVED THERE. I JUST WENT TO GO. TAKE MR VILLAGE MANAGER OVER THERE BECAUSE SOMEONE HAD CONTACTED ME. I WAS SCARED TO EVEN REVERSE OUT OF THAT DRIVEWAY BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT MY CAR WAS GOING TO GET GO THROUGH THE DITCH OTHER SIDE. SO, UM WELL, THESE DITCHES LOOK LIKE THAT PICTURE OR WILL THEY BE DEEPER? BECAUSE THE DITCH THAT I SAW IT WAS DEEP. SO IT VARIES THROUGHOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IN A VARIES BECAUSE IT DEPENDS HOW MUCH SPACE WAS FROM THE ROAD TO THE PROPERTY LINE. SO THE FURTHER THAT DISTANCE IS THE DEEPER IT'LL BE. AND I THINK THE DEEPEST UM, DITCHES IS ONE FT DEEP AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND AGAIN THE THEY'RE THERE TO HELP WITH THE FLOODING. UM, SO IF WE REMOVE THE DITCHES AND WE HAVE THE ISSUE WITH THE FLOODING, OKAY? AND IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, THEY HAD SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE BLOODY PRIOR TO AH! THE DITCH BEING INSTALLED. OKAY WELL , COUNCILMAN, I THINK I THINK THEY DIDN'T HAVE FLOODING IN FRONT OF THEIR HOUSE, BUT THEY HAD FLOODING. IN THE AREA AND THE AREA FAR FROM THEM. SO AND I UNDERSTAND THAT AND THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD ACTUALLY ACTS AS ONE SYSTEM. SO IF YOU IF YOU CHANGE SOMETHING ON ONE STREET THAT MAY HAVE A SNOWBALL EFFECT ON THE OTHER NEXT BLOCK OR AND REALLY, IT HAS TO OPERATE AS ONE AND, UM, THAT'S WHAT WE SAW WITH THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD WAS AS OVER TIME AS THESE DITCHES STARTED FILLING IN IT PREVENTED THE WATER FROM FLOWING TO WHERE IT NEEDED TO GO TO. GET OUT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND UNFORTUNATELY, SOME HOUSES FLOODED WORSE THAN OTHERS. I MEAN, UM, THERE THEY WERE AT THE LOWER END OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. UM, BUT AGAIN IT IT'S NEEDED FOR THE WHOLE SYSTEM TO WORK TOGETHER FOR THIS TO BE SUCCESSFUL, OKAY? IS THERE ANY. WAY THAT THE VILLAGE BECAUSE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE RESIDENTS DIDN'T. THINK THAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE IMPACTED WITH DRIVEWAYS. UM AND I'VE SEEN FIRSTHAND WHERE THEY'RE PARKING IN THE STREET NOW, SO THAT CAN BE REALLY HAZARD. UM. THING THAT CAN, YOU KNOW 911 CAN AND IT'S BEING BLOCKED. YOU HAVE TO ZIGZAG THROUGH THE STREET BECAUSE CARS ARE BEING OUT PARKED ON THE STREET. SO IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO AS A VILLAGE? TO ALLEVIATE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE AH THE

[01:10:07]

THANK YOU, UM STONE. JUST THERE'S A THIS COULD BE AN ANSWER TO COUNCILMAN HERNANDEZ.

ISSUE. AND OF COURSE WE MIGHT HAVE TO DO A STUDY FOR THIS IS IF WE DO ONE WAY STREETS UM AND THEY COULD PARK ON THE STREETS. POSSIBILITY. DOES THAT WOULD HELP WITH THE PARKING SITUATION AND WE WOULD JUST HAVE TO GET PEOPLE USED TO TRAVEL IN ONE WAY ON THE STREET BECAUSE I KNOW THAT WOULD PLAY. OH, YEAH. SO I MEAN, BUT IT IS A SOLUTION. YEAH. SOMETHING WE COULD LOOK INTO. THANK THANK YOU. YOU WANTED TO RESPOND. YOU'RE GOOD. SURE I WAS JUST GONNA HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT IT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED AND. THERE'S NOT A SIMPLE ANSWER TO IT. SO IT'S DEFINITELY GONNA TAKE SOME PLANNING AND SOME THOUGHT FROM STAFF TO COME TO A RESOLUTION ON WHAT WE CAN DO TO BOTH ACCOMMODATE THE RESIDENTS FOR THE PARKING AND THEN ALSO TRY TO FIX THE EVIDENT PROBLEM OF THE FLOODING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

YOU KNOW, WE THERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS GOING ON. RIGHT NOW. WE KNOW WE HAVE THE MONEY THAT WE GOT THROUGH THE STATE APPROPRIATION, AND WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES FOR THAT. BUT IN TERMS OF WHAT THE COUNCILWOMAN IS TALKING ABOUT YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING TO HANDLE ISSUES WHEN THEY COME UP AND WE ARE ADDRESSING ISSUES. WE HAVE A COUPLE OF ISSUES OUT THERE AND CALLING MYSELF WORKING ON THIS. I'M SURE THE COUNCILWOMAN KNOWS WHICH ONES WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

AND SO THERE WILL BE THINGS THAT MIGHT NOT FIT. WHAT WE'RE DOING, AND IF WE HAVE TO PROVIDE A DIFFERENT APPROACH. WE WILL DO THAT, AND I THINK WE'RE DOING IT . JUST GIVE US SOME TIME. AND YOU KNOW, I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT RECOMMENDATION. BUT THAT'S A REALLY GOOD RECOMMENDATION BECAUSE YOU KNOW? WE'RE NOT GOING TO MOVE FAMILIES OUT OF HOUSES, SO THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK AT. AND BUT RIGHT NOW, WE CAN'T LOOK AT IT RIGHT NOW. WE NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM OUT THERE. AND THEN COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL WITH A SOLUTION ON HOW WE DEAL WITH OF ON STREET PARKING. IT WOULD JUST HAVE TO BE ON ONE SIDE. MAKE IT ILLEGAL TO PARK ON WHATEVER SIDE YOU DO PARALLEL PARKING ON THE SIDE. IN TEXAS ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? SEEING NONE. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US. WELCOME TO THE TEAM . THANK YOU. AND I WAS GOING TO REQUEST IF, UH, IF YOU COULD JUST HANG BACK AFTER A MEETING JUST FOR A FEW SECONDS.

Approval of Notice of Abandonment of Old Indiantown DRI

COUNCIL MEMBERS. GOOD EVENING. THIS ITEM IS JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A PAPERWORK CLEANUP ITEM AS YOU ALL RECALL BACK IN DECEMBER , THE COUNCIL APPROVED THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND FOURTH AMENDMENT. PDF ZONING AGREEMENT WITH WHAT WAS IN COLD WAR FIELD INVESTMENTS LLC. CONCERNING WHAT HAD BEEN THE INDIAN TOWN DEGREE PROJECT NOW CALLED TERRA LAGO. THOSE AGREEMENTS NOW GOVERNED THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT PROJECT THERE, AND THOSE TWO AGREEMENTS EXPRESSLY CONTEMPLATED IN THEIR TERMS THAT AFTER THOSE WERE APPROVED, AND ACTUALLY AFTER THE APPEALS PERIOD OF 30 DAYS HAD RUN ON IT THAT THEY WOULD COME BACK AROUND PURSUANT TO THE STATUTORY PROCESS AND ACID AND NOTICE OF ABANDONMENT BE APPROVED BY THE VILLAGE. SO THIS IS JUST A PAPERWORK ITEM FILLING OUT OR COMPLETING THAT STEP IN THE PROCESS. THE MINOR CHANGES THAT YOU SEE IN RED LINE ON THE ITEM BEFORE YOU AS I MENTIONED BEFORE WERE PROVIDED AFTER THE AGENDA DEADLINE CUT OFF. BUT IT WAS UPDATING TO THE CURRENT NAME OF THAT LLC. THERE HAD BEEN A NAME CHANGE OF THE LLC, AND IT ADDED A SENTENCE SPECIFYING JUST MAKING A TRUE LEGAL STATEMENT THAT THE ABANDONMENT OF THE DEGREE DOESN'T HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE CDD THAT EXISTS ON THE PROPERTY. SO WITH THAT STAFF WOULD RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE NOTICE OF A BAND. THANK YOU, MR VOS. AT THIS TIME, I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION. BOTH SECOND WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILOR STONE AND A SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ. ANY DISCUSSION FROM THE COUNCIL SEEING NONE. ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS EXPERIENCE, SAYING NONE ALL IN FAVOR. SAY AYE AYE ALL OPPOSE. NONE OPPOSED. THE MOTION CARRIES. I

Approval of Contract Amendment with Kimley-Horn for the SW 151st Street Watermain Replacement Project

[01:20:08]

IT'S JUST NOT PRACTICAL AND FEASIBLE TO REPLACE THAT TWO INCH MAIN IN THE ALLEYWAY. TO LOOK AT ALTERNATIVES, AND THE BEST WAY TO DO IT IS TO REROUTE EVERYTHING THE NEW MAIN OUT IN OSCEOLA AND PUT ALL THE NEW SERVICES ON OFF AND IN FRONT OF THE HOMES OUT FRONT. NOW NOW DOING THAT RUNNING THE MAN OSCEOLA. THAT TOO MUCH MEN WILL STAY IN SERVICE UNTIL THERE'S APPROPRIATE FUNDING, SAY TO PUT ANOTHER MAN OVER ON ONE 51ST. TWO. ALLEVIATE THERE'S OTHER METERS. BUT AT LEAST IT GETS THE MAIN AREA WHERE MR NOLAN AND HIS STAFF CAN ACCESS IT IN THE FUTURE, AS OPPOSED TO BEING BEHIND THE ALLEY. SO WHAT DOES WORK AUTHORIZATION OR AMENDMENT IS IN FRONT OF YOU IS FOR THE RESERVING OF THAT WORK AND THEN ALSO THE TO TAKE CARE OF THE EXTRA DESIGN THAT WE'VE ALREADY ENCUMBERED THAT WE JUST CAN'T DO. BUT THAT'S WHAT THIS AMENDMENT IS. THANK YOU SO MUCH ENTERTAINMENT EMOTION AT THIS TIME. I'LL MAKE A MOTION. DO I HAVE A SECOND? SO I HAVE A MOTION BY HERNANDEZ AND A SECOND BY STONE. ANY DISCUSSION FROM THE COUNCIL GIVES THOMAS JUST A REAL QUICK QUESTION. UM WE'VE WE'VE HEARD THIS EVENING PROPOSED, YOU KNOW? PLANNED WORK AND THEN IT BEING DONE HOW IT DIDN'T EXACTLY WASN'T EXACTLY WHAT THE RESIDENTS THOUGHT. NOW IF WE'RE MOVING A MAIN OUT OF AN ALLEY WAY ONTO OSCEOLA IS THAT GOING TO AFFECT THEIR HOOK UP? IS IT GOING TO HAVE TO BE RE HOOKED UP TO THEIR HOUSE? AND WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? DIGGING UP THEIR YARD AND THEN REPLACING YOUR YOUR CORRECT THERE ARE IS GOING TO BE SINCE WE'RE PLACING, REPLACING THE MAINS ON ALSO YOLA. AND THE RESIDENTS THAT FRONT AUSTRALIA ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE THEIR WATER METERS RELOADED RELOCATED TO THE FRONT YARD. WE WILL MYSELF AND MR NOLAN WILL HAVE TO GET WITH EACH RESIDENT. THERE WILL BE SOME TRENCHING OF A NEW WATER SERVICE BACK TO THE POINT OF CONNECTION WHEREVER IT IS ON THE SIDE OR HOME OR THE BACK OF THE HOUSE. OKAY SO IT WILL NOT BE A NEW CONNECTION PER SE. NO JUST FOR THEM WAS NOT GOING TO BE THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE IN THIS CASE, BUT THERE WILL BE SOME MINOR. THAT IS CORRECT, OKAY? ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? YES AND THIS WOULD BE IN THE BACK, NOT IN FRONT. THAT THE NEW MAIN THAT WE'RE THAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO DO NOW IS IN THE FRONT ALONG OSCEOLA AND ALL THE HOMES UPFRONT OSCEOLA FROM WASHINGTON TO THE DEAD END WILL HAVE ALL THEIR WATER MEANS RELOCATED TO THE FRONT YARD. JUST LIKE I SAID. UNFORTUNATELY THE MAIN WILL STAY IN THE ALLEYWAY FUNCTIONING TO TAKE CARE OF THE HOMES, BASICALLY, UM ON SIDE OF ONE 51ST THOSE THAT MEN WILL STAY ACTIVE UNTIL WE CAN GET FUNDING TO REPLACE THAT OVER ON 1 54. WELL THE HOMEOWNERS BE ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE WILL 30 LIKE. REMOVAL OF SOME SORT IN THERE. DARN IN THE FRONT WHERE THE WATER METERS WILL BE SET BASICALLY AT THE PROPERTY CORNERS TOOK TO REPLACE THEM. THE ADVANTAGES TO THIS NOW GOING FORWARD. IS THAT NOW WE'RE GOING TO BECAUSE THERE WAS MINIMAL FIRE PROTECTION ON SOME OF THE STREETS OVER THERE. AS YOU KNOW, NOW WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FIRE HYDRANTS DOWN THE STREET. THAT'S COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE, EVERYBODY AND HOW MANY FIRE HYDRANTS ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? THE SPACE EVERY 500 FT ALL THE WAY DOWN THE STREET, OKAY? AND AH, THERE'S 28 HOMES. WILL THESE BE? WILL THEY BE NOTIFIED PHYSICALLY OR THROUGH A NOTICE? WILL PROBABLY DO DOOR HANGERS INITIALLY, BUT I THINK I'LL GET WITH MR NOLAN

[01:25:01]

WE'RE GOING TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THAT. I MEAN, WE'RE EXPERIENCING SOME THINGS HERE THAT WE HAVE NOT DONE BEFORE, SO WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO BEFORE WE ENGAGE A CONTRACT TO DO THIS WITH THIS NOTIFICATION IN SPANISH AND ENGLISH. WILL DO NEWSLETTER WILL DO SOME DOOR TO DOOR SERVICE AS WELL. SO. YES SORRY, BUT IT'S JUST GOING ONLY GOING TO AFFECT 28. RIGHT SO YOU WOULD HAVE ONLY HAVE TO TARGET THOSE BILLS THAT WE WILL, BUT WE WANT EVERYBODY TO KNOW THAT WE'RE DOING THIS PROJECT AS WELL. SO FANTASTIC ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? ANY QUESTIONS FROM OUR STAFF. NOTE SAYING NONE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE HAVE A MOTION FROM HERNANDEZ AND A SECOND FROM STONE ALL IN FAVOR. SAY AYE ALL OPPOSE. THERE'S NOT OPPOSED. THIS MEANT

Approval of Contract Amendment with Kimley-Horn for the Railroad Avenue Watermain Replacement and Water Meter Replacement Project

WE CAN'T EVEN GET TO IT. AND I, AND THERE'S NO I'LL TALK TO THE RAILROAD. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO ALLOW US TO TAKE ANY OF THOSE TREES OUT, AND I WOULDN'T EITHER BECAUSE WE WOULD HAVE A LOT OF DISRUPTION IN SERVICE. SO WE HAVE SPENT A LOT OF TIME WITH MR NOLAN MR HEWITT, FINDING OUT A NEW ROUTE. THAT MAKES SENSE FOR THE VILLAGE IN THE LONG TERM. AND THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT THIS. THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT THIS REPRESENTS. SO WE WEREN'T PLANNING ON DOING A ROB STUDY.

BUT THAT'S ALL YOU'VE DONE AND I'M DOING FOR THE LAST FOUR MONTHS FINDING HER OUT. NOW WE HAVE THE ROUTE. THAT WAS THAT'S THAT'S INSTRUCTABLES. AND PROVIDE MORE LONG TERM BENEFIT AND ACCESS TO ALL THE UTILITY CREWS. IT WAS 10,500 FT. NOW IT'S 12,500 FT IN LENGTH, BUT IT'S AN AREA. I THINK IT'S MORE PRACTICAL. WHAT IT REALLY DOES IT. THERE'S ONLY 1200 FT. NOW WE'RE KEEPING IN THE RAILROAD. BEEN TALKING TO THE RAILROAD MADE SOME SMELLS ALREADY. AND WHAT THAT DOES WHEN YOU RIGHT NOW, YOU ALL DON'T HAVE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE RAILROAD.

THAT MEANS IN THERE, FROM A HISTORICAL STANDPOINT THAT THEY ARE SURPRISED ABOUT BUT RIGHT NOW WE'RE KEEPING 1200 FT IN THAT CORRIDOR, BUT IT'S NOT IN THE TRUE RAILROAD RIGHT AWAY.

IT'S THEY HAVE THEY HAVE A 60 FT . EASEMENT OUTSIDE THAT I'M IN THAT EASEMENT AND THE REST I FALL INTO YOUR EASEMENT AS I RUN INTO THE WATER PLANT, BUT I HAVE TO DEVIATE. FROM MARTIN LUTHER

[01:30:06]

SECOND WE HAVE A MOTION BY STONE AND A SECOND BY HERNANDEZ. ANY DISCUSSION FROM THE COUNCIL'S, UM I'M NOT SURE WHO HAD THEIRS FIRST, AND WE'LL START WITH GIFTS. THOMAS OKAY? UM WELL, JUST A QUICK QUESTION ALL THIS EXTRA WORK, AND THIS EXTRA ADDS HOW MUCH TO IT. IT'S APPROXIMATELY $50,000. MORE OR LESS IS WHAT THE AMENDMENT IS FOR. AND, UM YES. YEAH, FOR THIS. OKAY. THANK YOU. HERNANDEZ YES. SO YOU SAID $50,000. FROM THE ORIGINAL, SO OF 187, RIGHT? SO THIS IS WITHIN OUR CURRENT BUDGET. YES WE'RE NOT OVER BUDGET AND WE CAN. THIS DIFFERENCE WILL COME OUT OF THE CURRENT LOAN THAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW. OKAY? ADDITIONALLY, UH WELL, THE PEOPLE AROUND THAT AREA THAT LIVE AROUND THE FERNWOOD FOREST AND, UM THE OTHER AREAS. OR BUSINESSES HAVE INTERRUPTION. OF SERVICE. FOR WATER BECAUSE THIS IS WATER, RIGHT? THIS IS THIS IS DRINKING WATER TRANSMISSION MAIN. IT'S A 12, INCH TRANSMISSION AND GOING IN. IT'S GOING TO PROVIDE A LOT BETTER SERVICE AND ADEQUATE PRESSURES FOR THE ENTIRE VILLAGE AS I SEE IT. WE DO HAVE CONNECTIONS THAT ARE BEING MADE TO KEEP SERVICE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RAILROAD TRACK. UM SO PEOPLE. ALL THE WORK IS EVEN GOING TO BE DONE AND EASEMENT OR IS BEING DONE IN YOUR PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY. SO IT'S THE SAME THING AS MR BROWN SAYS, OBVIOUSLY, FOR A JOB LIKE THIS TO MOVE FORWARD, WE'LL PROBABLY HAVE SOME KIND OF PUBLIC NOTICE.

WE CAN. WE CAN ADVISE PEOPLE AS WE'RE GOING THROUGH SEGMENTS AND FACE THE PROJECT AS WE GO ALONG, SO THEY'RE FULLY AWARE OF IT. UM JUST DOES TAKE CARE OF SOMETHING THAT WE LOCATED. MM OVERALL, 7 10 AT THE GAS COMPANY. I'M GOING TO ELIMINATE THAT CROSSING. UH IT'S ACTUALLY AT GRADE IS EXPOSED. IT REALLY SHOULDN'T BE BE LIKE THAT. AND I'VE DISCOVERED THAT I CAN PROVIDE TO THE GAS COMPANY, A NEW WATER SERVICE. AND IF YOU RECALL THAT ADJACENT LITTLE STRIP CENTER THERE THIS WAS A SURPRISING FACT THAT MR HEWITT, I GUESS BACK WHEN IT WAS PRIVATELY HELD. THE GAS COMPANY BILLS THAT STRIP CENTER AND THAT THAT CAN'T HAPPEN, SO THE STRIP CENTER IS GOING TO HAVE THEIR OWN WATER METERS. GOING FORWARD. WE CAN'T HAVE THE GAS COMPANY. YEAH IT'S JUST NOT THE RIGHT THING TO DO SO THAT THAT'S PART OF THIS ALSO TO DO THOSE PLANES OVER THERE AND GET NEW WATER METERS OVER INTO DESCRIPTION. SO, UH, DO YOU EXPECT BECAUSE THIS YOU SAID THIS WOULD BE HELPFUL FOR THE WHOLE VILLAGE IN THE FUTURE. DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU WE HAVE THE FINAL WHEN WE'RE FINALLY HAVING DOING THE WHOLE WORK. DO YOU EXPECT THE WHOLE VILLAGE OF BEING LIKE A FEW MINUTES OUT OF WATER? NO THE WAY WE'RE WAY WILL WE WILL CONSTRUCT. THIS IS BASICALLY BY MAKING SURE WE MINIMIZE ANY IMPACTS AT ALL. THERE ARE AS YOU KNOW, IN THE SYSTEM OVER ON FERNWOOD THAT ONE STREET THERE ON FOUR FERNWOOD WILL HAVE TO COORDINATE MIGHT HAVE TO BRING TO BOIL WATER. COURSE THERE'S VERY, VERY FEW 1000 A SYSTEM IN THE VALVES THAT WE DO HAVE AN A SYSTEM. OR NOT, ARE NOT SEATING. SO WHEN YOU DO THAT, BUT THERE ARE SOME THINGS WE CAN DO FROM TRYING TO MINIMIZE THE CONSTRUCTION COSTS. ALSO WE COULD WE COULD ACTUALLY INSERT A VALVE IN THE SYSTEM OF POSSIBLE TO TRY TO ISOLATE THAT. BUT THOSE GET KIND OF PRICEY TOO. I DON'T WANT TO. I'M TRYING TO FIGURE YOU KNOW I'LL DO THE BEST WAY WE CAN COORDINATE WITH

[01:35:02]

I THINK WHAT THE JOB THEY HAVE BEFORE YOUR NEXT THAT KIND OF TIES IT ALL TOGETHER. OKAY.

THANK AWESOME. NO PUBLIC COMMENTS. OKAY ALL IN FAVOR. SAY AYE ALL OPPOSE. THERE'S NONE

Approval of Proposal for Engineering Services for 12” Watermain Looping of West Farm Rd and SR 710 with Bowman Consulting in an Amount of $311,580.00

AND THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF TRYING TO DO THAT PROJECT. SO EXACTLY IF YOU CAN WALK US THROUGH, IT WOULD BE GREAT. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS ZACHARY CAMINOS. I'M WORKING WITH BOWMAN CONSULTING. I'M A CIVIL ENGINEER FOR THE FOR THE VILLAGE, WORKING WITH KYLE CASTINE. THIS IS THE PROPOSAL FOR THE 12 INCH WATER MAIN LOOP ON THE WEST SIDE.

SO JUST TO TOUCH BASE ON WHAT THE PROJECT IS CAP TECH HAD PERFORMED THE POTABLE WATER.

MASTER UTILITY PLAN BACK IN FEBRUARY TO FACILITATE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE VILLAGE. AND THIS PROJECT WOULD BE THE FIRST MILESTONE IN THAT PROJECT TO COMPLETE THE 12 INCH WATER MAIN LOOP ALONG THE WEST CORRIDOR OF THE VILLAGE, ABOUT FIVE MILE LONG LOOP. IT'S GOING TO BE STARTING AROUND SOUTHWEST FARM ROAD AND 69TH AB. AND IT'S GOING TO END JUST OVER BY 7 10 ONWARDS , FEAR BOULEVARD. THERE'S ALSO AN ADDITIONAL 1200 LINEAR FEET OF ADDITIONAL EIGHT INCH PIPE THAT WE MAY HAVE THE MANIFOLD IN IN FRONT OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL AND THE Y M C. A NEXT LIFE. I GUESS YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT. YEAH, THERE. THE RED LINE WOULD BE SORT OF THE START LIMITS ON THE BOTTOM SIDE. THEY'RE KIND OF COMING UP AND OVER. AS YOU'RE TRAVELING FURTHER TO THE WEST.

IT'S GOING TO LOOP THROUGH. AH WAR FIELD UP TO WAR FIELD PAST THE AH INTENT, LOGICS BUILT PLACE AND THEN COMES DOWN THE GAS COMPANY PROPERTY AND TIES BACK INTO THE LOOP. THE SMALL PORTION I HAD MENTIONED IS ON THE FAR RIGHT CORNER. THE LIMITS OF THE WE JUST NEED TO GET ADDITIONAL SURVEY DOWN THERE FOR A SCHOOL PORTION THAT'S GOING TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF THE WATER MINUTES. CURRENTLY EIGHT INCH SO IF WE'RE GOING TO UP SIZE THE REST OF IT TO 12. IT MAKES SENSE TO UP SIZE THAT LINE AS WELL. NEXT LIFE. SO THIS IS AN EXHIBIT FROM THE CAP TECH.

REPORT THEY HAD PERFORMED THE YOU KNOW IF YOU LOOK AT THE EXTENDED PART ON A IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER, THAT'S SORT OF THE LOCATION ABOUT WHERE WE'RE GOING, AND ADDING SORT OF THE PRESS LIKE WHERE WE ARE, WHERE WE FALL INTO THE TIMING OF ALL THIS, AND IT'S SORT OF IN THE 2021 TO 2026 TIMELINE. NEXT LIFE. THESE ARE THE EXISTING SORT OF PRESSURES OUT THERE RIGHT NOW, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE EXIT, EXTEND A IN THE CORNER THERE. THERE REALLY ISN'T ANY SORT OF ADDITIONAL LINES OUT THERE. YOU KNOW, THIS IS THIS PROJECT WOULD BRING IN NEW PRESSURES AND SORT OF FINALIZED THE LOOP TO ALLOW ADDITIONAL FIRE FLOW THROUGHOUT THE VILLAGE. THIS IS SORT OF THE FIVE YEAR PLAN AGAIN. IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE EXTENT A WE'D

[01:40:06]

NEXT SLIDE. THIS ONE IS JUST AS JUST ANOTHER ONE FROM THE COPTIC PROPOSAL INDICATING SORT OF THE EXISTING FIRE FLOW RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A COUPLE ORANGES OUT THERE , WHICH IS THE 7 50 TO 1500. BUT IT DOESN'T CROSS THAT THRESHOLD OF THE 1500 IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE THE WATER MAIN, THEN SHOWS GREEN. THE GREEN DOTS INDICATE 1500 THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE CORRIDOR, ALLOWING ADEQUATE FIRE FLOW FOR THIS PART OF THE VILLAGE. NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS ANOTHER ONE, INDICATING WHAT LOW PRESSURE ZONE IS AGAIN AND THAT EXTEND A SECTION THERE. NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. SO THE FUNDING FOR THIS IS COMING THROUGH MARTIN COUNTY CONTRIBUTIONS AND CARES ACT CONTRIBUTIONS. UHH ONE THING TO NOTE IS THAT WE WOULD NEED TO REEVALUATE THE INITIAL CONSTRUCTION COSTS. GUYS, WE ALL KNOW INFLATION IS HERE RIGHT NOW, AND THE CONSTRUCTION MARKET IS VERY VOLATILE AND THEIR SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS, SO WE'LL JUST HAVE TO TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT SORT OF THE INITIAL CONSTRUCTION COSTS TO UNDERSTAND. EVERYTHING WITH THE CURRENT MARKET PRICES. AND EXPLODE. AS I STATED REFORM WITH BOWMAN, WHERE WE'LL BE DOING THE DESIGN FOR THE CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS, A COUPLE OF THE PERMITS WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH AS MARTIN COUNTY BECAUSE THEY OWN THE ROADWAY UP TO WAR FIELD. THEN THERE'S F D. O T. THE EXPRESSWAY. UM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT TRANSPORTATION. THIS IS A WATER MAIN PROJECT, SO WE HAVE TO GET PERMANENT THROUGH THEM. UHH COORDINATION HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE THROUGH TENT LOGICS TO GET AN EASEMENT ACROSS THEIR PROPERTY. AND I BELIEVE THE GAS COMPANY EASEMENTS ALSO HAS PRELIMINARY LANGUAGE IN THE WORKS WITHIN THE VILLAGE AT THIS TIME. AND WITH THAT. I JUST WANT TO APPRECIATE YOU GUYS. IT'S TIME. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

THANK YOU. ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE COUNCIL? SEEING NONE IN THE PUBLIC COMMENTS, MR VICE MAYOR AT THIS TIME, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. SOME OF. SECOND SO WE HAVE A MOTION BY STONE AND A SECOND BY HERNANDEZ. UM AND WE HAVE NO COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC. ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.

Village of Indiantown Minor Home Repair Program

THIS IDEA THIS JEFFERSON HELLO ONCE AGAIN. SO SEVERAL WEEKS BACK NEXT SLIDE. THE VILLAGE MANAGER BROUGHT TO THE COUNCIL A LIST OF POTENTIAL R P A PROJECTS ONE OF THEM BEING THE START OF A MINOR HOME WITH REPAIR PROGRAM. AND HE TASKED OUR STAFF AND CED TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS. WE LOOKED AT SEVERAL COMMUNITIES AND ULTIMATELY PARED IT DOWN TO FIVE. I'M SORRY FOR, INCLUDING JACKSONVILLE, TAMPA. PORT APPEARS PORT SAINT LUCIE AND NORTH LAUDERDALE. NEXT LIFE.

WHAT WE DID WAS WE TOOK A LOOK AT SOME OF THE COMMON PARAMETERS FOR SOME OF THE PROGRAMS FOR MINOR HOME REPAIR. IN THESE COMMUNITIES, SOME OF THEM HAD PROGRAMS WHERE THEY WERE EXTENDING LOANS. SOME OF THEM HAD A GRANT PROGRAM WHERE YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY THE FUNDING BACK SOME OF THE PROGRAMS THAT CAPS ANYWHERE FROM 2 TO $10,000 ON THE AMOUNT THAT WAS DESIGNATED FOR PROPERTY. BUT ALL IN ALL, SOME OF THE MOST COMMON FEATURES FOR THE PROGRAMS ACROSS THE BOARD ENTAILED THE. REQUIREMENT FOR YOU TO BE THE ACTUAL OWNER OF THE PROPERTY WHERE YOU'RE RECEIVING THE FUNDING. THEY DID LOOK AT PROPERTY VALUE. THAT WAS ONE OF THE MORE COMMON THINGS THAT WE SAW. MAKING SURE THAT THERE WAS A REAL NEED FOR SOMEONE WHO

[02:10:02]

ELIGIBLE PROJECTS THAT WE'VE SEEN IN SOME OF THE OTHER COMMUNITIES THAT WE LOOKED AT WINDOW AND DOOR REPLACEMENT LANDSCAPING DRIVE, DRIVEWAY, REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT MINOR ROOF REPAIRS. ASSAD REPLACEMENT EXTERIOR PAINTING. UM, NEXT TIMS BIG, AND IT MAY BE A BIG THING FOR OUR COMMUNITY IN TERMS OF SOME OF THE PROJECTS THAT COULD BE ELIGIBLE. SO WE WANTED TO GO AHEAD AND SHOW YOU AND THESE ARE PHOTOS FROM INDIAN TOWN. SOME OF THE TOP FIVE CODE VIOLATIONS WE'VE BEEN SEEING AND C E D OVER THE LAST YEAR OR SO. INCLUDING OVERGROWN LANDSCAPE, UH, LACK OF MAINTENANCE TO THE EXTERIOR WINDOWS AND DISREPAIR. WE HAVE LOTS OF WINDOWS THAT ARE COVERED, BOARDED UP. AND IT'S BECAUSE THERE'S ACTUALLY NO WINDOW. THERE'S NOT A PROBLEM FOR A PRIVACY ISSUE. AND THEN ROOFS AND DISREPAIR. NEXT SLIDE. AND THEN AS WE LOOKED AT OUR BUILDING PERMIT RECORDS BECAUSE I DO BELIEVE THE VILLAGE MANAGER. IN HIS SUGGESTION TO YOU AND THE SPENDING OF THE FUNDING RECOMMENDED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN TWO AND 3000 PER PROPERTY. AH WHAT WE DID WAS WE LOOKED AT SOME OF THE BUILDING PERMITS THAT HAD RECENTLY BEEN PULLED IN THE VILLAGE, AND WE USED WHAT WAS PROVIDED FOR THE JOB COSTS TO DETERMINE WHAT WE BELIEVE COULD BE THE EXTENT OF SOME OF THE REPAIRS THAT MAY QUALIFY FOR THE PROGRAM. SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT SOME OF OUR EXAMPLES FOR PERMITS WE LOOKED AT FOR REPLACEMENTS OF WINDOWS AND DOORS. YOU'RE UNDER JUST UNDER $3000. WE FOUND THAT WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT A REPLACEMENT AND H BACK ISSUES IT'S REALLY ON THE HIGHER END, SO IF THE INTENT IS TO FULLY FUND TO REPAIR, THIS MAY NOT BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD QUALIFY. BUT IF THE INTENT IS TO PROVIDE 50% OR AT LEAST HELP OUT TO SOME EXTENT. THIS IS THE TYPE OF MINOR REPAIR YOU COULD DO. ALL IN ALL, SOME OF THE LOWEST WERE THE DRIVEWAY REPAIRS. UM, WATER HEATER. AND MINOR ROOF REPAIRS. NEXT LIFE. SO IN THIS PARTICULAR SLIDE, WHAT WE'VE DONE WAS WE'VE TAKEN WHAT WE THOUGHT WERE SOME OF THE BEST CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROGRAMS . WE LOOKED AT TO MAKE A SUGGESTION TO YOU AS A BODY. TO CONSIDER FOR POSSIBLE ESTABLISHMENT OF A MINOR HOME REPAIR PROGRAM HERE IN THE VILLAGE. STAFF YOU KNOW, TAKING THE LEAD FROM SUCCESSFUL OTHER PROGRAMS ARE WE'RE RECOMMENDING THAT YOU CONSIDER DOING THE PROGRAM FOR HOENER OCCUPIED. UNITS THAT YOU DO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE PROPERTY VALUES. SO THIS ISN'T A PROGRAM THAT'S GOING TO BE USED FOR HALF MILLION DOLLAR HOMES. YOU KNOW, MILLION DOLLAR HOMES. WE WANT TO REALLY MAKE THE IMPACT WHERE IT'S NEEDED. IN ADDITION TO THAT, USING SOME OF THE SCALABLE BASED ON THE COUNTY'S AVERAGE

[02:15:07]

AND IN ADDITION TO THAT, WE'RE RECOMMENDING AT LEAST PART TIME EMPLOYEE TOO. TO OVERSEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS, BUT WE ALL IN ALL, I THINK IT IS A GOOD IDEA FOR THE VILLAGE AND WE WELCOME ANY COMMENTS YOU MAY HAVE OR REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. THANK YOU ANY FROM OUR COUNCIL. GIBBS THOMAS THEN STONED THEN HERNANDEZ IN THAT ORDER. JUST A QUICK QUESTION. I CANNOT SEE REAL GOOD. THERE WERE TWO OF THOSE COLUMNS THAT WERE NOT CHECKED OFF. WHAT WERE THE TWO THAT WERE NOT CHECKED OFF. SO ONE WAS THE TYPE OF FUNDING THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING BEING PROVIDED AND THAT'S WE. WE'RE NOT SUGGESTING YOU DO A LONG PROGRAM. OKAY SO THAT'S NOT CHECKED OFF. AND THEN, UH, THE OTHER COLUMN WAS THE. I'M SORRY . LOCAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. I CAN'T SEE THE TITLE OF THE TOP ABOUT THAT. ITS CONTRACT CONTRACTORS. THANK YOU APOLOGIZE . CONTRACTOR SELECTION. THIS IS ANA 11 BY 17. I AM SO SORRY. UM BUT FOR CONTRACTOR SELECTION, SO THERE WAS SOME OPTIONS WHERE IN SOME OF THE PROGRAMS WE LOOKED AT THE APPLICANT, UH PROVIDED THREE QUOTES TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT. AND THEN THEY TOOK THE LOWEST QUOTE AND OTHER PROGRAMS. WHAT WE FOUND WAS THAT THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT HAD A LIST OF ELIGIBLE CONTRACTORS BASED ON A CALL FOR BIDS. AND THE. THE PROPERTY OWNERS HAD TO USE THAT LIST OF COMPANIES TO GET THE SERVICES DONE. WE FOUND WE ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD BE EASIER TO HAVE THE APPLICANT DO IT, AND THEN WE WOULD DO A CROSS CHECK IN TERMS OF WHERE THEY WERE GETTING THE ESTIMATES FROM AND HOW THESE COMPANIES QUALIFIED. AS OPPOSED TO ASK, YOU KNOW, SPENDING TIME AND MONEY ON A, YOU KNOW, BIDS PROCESS. AND THE AND THE ONE ITEM. THAT SEEMED TO GO UP AND ABOVE AND BEYOND, UM AND LOOKING AT ALL THOSE WAS, UM WASN'T A WATER HEATER. TRACK. YEAH. SO EXPENSIVE BASED ON THE PERMIT APPLICATIONS. WE'VE GOTTEN IT AND THOSE WERE, UM 2.5 TIME IN 3.5 TON CHANGE OUTS. YEAH, THAT'S JUST CHANGE OUT. THIS NOT RUNNING DUCK WORK OR OR PUTTING IN ANYTHING. UM, SO MY QUESTION IS IF CAN YOU KIND OF HAVE A. HYBRID IF THE IF THEY QUALIFY, OKAY, AND IT'S AND IT'S A FACT. AND THE PROGRAM ONLY GOES UP TO $3000, AND IT'S GOING TO COST THEM $5000 IF THEY QUALIFY. CAN IT BE SUCH THAT IT IS JUST A PORTION? IF THE IF THE THEY'RE ABLE TO COME UP WITH THE OTHER TWO THEN, IF THEY QUALIFIED, THEN THEY COULD GET THE THREE THAT'S HOW YOU COULD STRUCTURE THE PROGRAM. IF YOU IF YOU HAD CERTAIN TYPES OF PROJECTS WHERE YOU ONLY FUNDED A MATCH, UM, SAY YOU WOULD DO A 60 40 MATCH IN THAT CASE. AND THEN OTHERS. YOU WOULD DO A FULL FUNDING. IF IT'S UNDER $3000. YOU COULD. YOU COULD SET IT UP THAT WAY. OKAY JUST KNOWING THAT CERTAIN TYPES OF PROJECTS DO COST MORE. ABSOLUTELY YOU COULD GET MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK AND HELP WITH THE SMALLER AND THE LARGER PROJECTS WITH THE HYBRID LIKE OKAY. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT. SO PERSONALLY, I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE.

AH, ONE PROGRAM. UM, I HATE TO USE THE TERM FIT ALL BUT IT'S BASICALLY I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. MAYBE DO LIKE A 2 TO $5000 RANGE. WHERE THEY CAN APPLY LIKE YOU SAY,

[02:20:02]

AND ANOTHER THING, TOO. YOU MENTIONED ABOUT THE MOLD. AND THINGS LIKE THAT. I THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA. AND I WOULDN'T MIND IF WE THROW LIKE PEST CONTROL IN THAT, TOO. BECAUSE BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE ISSUES THAT YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES THEY JUST CAN'T AFFORD TO GET IN. TERMINATOR, COME IN AND TAKE CARE OF IT FOR THEM.

AND I WOULD DEFINITELY PUT THAT ON THERE. SO THEY ACTUALLY KNOW THAT WE CAN'T DO THAT. THANK YOU. HERNANDEZ. AND THEN GIVES THOMAS. AH THANK YOU. MINOR LANDSCAPING. WHAT IS THAT? THAT WOULD THAT BE? HIRING A COMPANY TO COME AND CUT SOMEONE'S GRASS. AND TRIM. IT WOULDN'T BE EQUIPMENT. UNDER CONTROL. WOULD THIS ALSO INCLUDES SOD? I DID HE SEE IN THE OTHER ONES THAT THERE WAS SOUGHT AND INVOLVED OR LIKE IRRIGATION SYSTEMS. I DON'T. I DON'T THINK I DON'T THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE MUCH OF THAT. YOU KNOW, THIS IS REALLY IT'S REALLY IT'S REALLY FOCUSED ON LIKE LIFE SAFETY ISSUES CODE VIOLATIONS AS A RESULT OF LIKE THE VILLAGE EXAMPLE, FOR EXAMPLE, LIKE IT, WE HAVE CODE VIOLATIONS ON THE HOUSE BECAUSE THEY, YOU KNOW, HAVING PAINT THEIR HOUSE. THEY GOT BOARD UP WINDOWS, THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. IT'S GEARED TOWARDS THOSE KIND OF ITEMS. THOSE THOSE OTHER ITEMS THAT SHE'S MENTIONING. THEY'RE JUST THEY'RE JUST FOR DISCUSSION. EVERY VILLAGE EVERY COMMUNITY, THEY DO IT DIFFERENTLY. UM, I KNOW THAT I DO PREFER A GRANT. BUT YOU KNOW, WE WOULD IT WOULD . IT WOULD BE MORE LIKE A LOAN THAT WOULD BE CONVERTED INTO A GRANT. SO THAT'S KIND OF HOW THE SYSTEM THE PROGRAM WORKS WELL.

IF WE'RE GOING TO DO ALONE, WHO'S GOING TO MAINTAIN HOPE? HOLD ON ONE SECOND AND IT STILL HURTS. NOT. IT'S NOT. NO I SHOULD HAVE SAID THAT. I MEAN, THERE'S WE GOTTA HAVE A WAY TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT THE FOLKS DO. OKAY THAT THEY DON'T TRY TO SELL THE HOUSE LATER AND SAY, YOU KNOW, THERE'S THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO DO, BUT WE'LL WORK ON ALL THAT. SO I DON'T CONCERN MYSELF WITH THE LOAN PART OF IT OR THE GREEN PARTY. AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PART TIME. THAT PART TIME EMPLOYEE. HOW MUCH WOULD THAT COST THE VILLAGE? BECAUSE IF WE CURRENTLY DON'T HAVE, UH AN EMPLOYEE THAT WOULD DO THAT WE ALREADY HAVE OUR TENTS, HANDS TIED WITH OUR STAFF , SO THAT WOULD MEAN BRINGING IN SOMEONE TEMPORARILY. PART TIME. WHAT WHAT WOULD THAT COST BE FOR US TO. TO IMPLEMENT THIS PROGRAM . UM BECAUSE IT'S A GREAT PROGRAM, BUT I'M JUST WONDERING

[02:25:04]

WE HAVE NOT PUT TOGETHER ANYTHING DEFINITIVE ABOUT STAFFING OTHER THAT WE KNOW WE NEED SOMEONE TO DO IT. AND YOU KNOW, I CAN'T ENVISION THIS TO BE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN FUNDS PAID FOR OUT OF THAT TO SEE HOW WELL THE PROGRAM IS. IF IT DOES WELL, THEN WE WOULD USE THAT PROGRAM. TO UM, PITCH THAT PROGRAM TO YOU KNOW OUR STATE LEGISLATIVE DELEGATION WE WOULD USE IT TO WE WOULD TRY TO GET IT FUNDED AND IN FUTURE YEARS BY THE CDBG FUNDS THAT WE APPLY FOR, AND THAT'S THAT'S HOW I SEE IT. BUT I THOUGHT WE COULD START A PILOT USING THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN FUNDS. IF IT'S SUCCESSFUL, THEN WE CAN TAKE THAT PROGRAM EVERY YEAR. WE COULD APPLY FOR CDBG FUNDS THROUGH THE SMALL CITIES PROGRAM, AND WE CAN FUND IT THAT WAY. SO THAT'S THAT'S IF IT'S SUCCESSFUL, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE NUMBER. HOW MUCH? OF THAT, BUT WE WOULD PAY FOR IT. THROUGH AMERICAN RESCUE PLAYING FOR IS THERE ANY WAY THAT WE CAN GET UPDATED? BECAUSE I KEEP ON SEEING WHERE WE'RE TRYING THIS FROM THE AMERICAN RESCUE. HOWARD DOING THIS? I FEEL LIKE WE'RE ALREADY IN THE NEGATIVES WITH THEIR NAME AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN , SO IF WE CAN GET UPDATED OF WHAT WE'VE ALREADY SPENT ON AMERICAN RESCUE BEFORE WE KNOW WE START SPENDING GENERAL FUND MONEY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, GIBBS, THOMAS. THANK YOU. IN SPEAKING ABOUT THE MINOR LANDSCAPING OR THE PAINTING THAT THAT'S YOU DON'T HAVE TO PERMIT FOR THAT. SO YOU DON'T HAVE THAT CHECK AND BALANCE THERE. MR IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, MR DANIEL, LIKE BEFORE HE LEFT, HE CREATED A LIST OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THAT COME IN AND DO COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECTS THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF ITEMS LIKE THAT. SO I THINK THAT WE NEED TO UTILIZE THAT IN THIS INSTANCE. SO THAT JUST KIND OF TAKES IT PROVIDES A SERVICE FOR THE COMMUNITY, BUT TAKES IT OUT OF THAT THAT LINE OF SIGHT FOR THIS PROGRAM ALSO, UM AH, SPEAKING WHEN YOU WERE SPEAKING TO, UM IT BEING A GRANT WITH THE STIPULATION OF, YOU KNOW, FIVE YEARS, 10 YEARS, WHATEVER IT IS SEVEN YEARS, AND THEN IT'S PRO RATED. IF YOU SELL THE HOME, THEN YOU HAVE TO PAY BACK. I THINK THAT TAKES CARE OF . YOU KNOW WHETHER IT'S ALONG WHETHER THEY SELL THE PLACE. I THINK THAT BECAUSE IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN WHEN YOU DEAL WITH THESE OTHER PROGRAMS, AND I THINK INDIAN TOWN NONPROFIT HOUSING WAS THE SAME WAY WHEN THEY SOLD THEIR HOMES, YOU YOU KNOW IF YOU SELL IT, THEN YOU HAVE TO AND IT'S PRO RATED, BUT I THINK THAT TAKES CARE OF THAT SPEAKS TO THAT, UM AND THE PART TIME. AND THE WAY THAT THAT THAT'S FUN TODAY R P. I HAVE TO AGREE. YOU KNOW WITH THOSE FUNDS SEEM TO BE, UM, GROWING OR OR GOING ONE OF THE TWO, UM PART TIME. WE HAVE PART TIME THAT WE WERE ROLLING TO FULL TIME. SO THAT MAY BE AN OPTION OF SOMEONE THAT WE STILL HAVE SUPPORT TIME . ROLL THEM TO FULL TIME. SO THAT OTHER PORTION AND THEN WHAT DOES THAT COME OUT OF THOSE THAT SALARY AND BENEFITS DOES THAT COME OUT OF THAT $150,000? WE'D HAVE TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IF YOU KNOW, LIKE, YOU KNOW THE POSITION IF IT WAS FULL TIME PART OF 50% WOULD BE A ARPAIO THE GRANT. THE OTHER 80% WOULD BE GENERAL FUND SO IT WOULD COME OUT OF THAT $150,000 BUDGET. OKAY? THAT'S THE ONLY COMMENTS I HAVE. THANK YOU SO MUCH STONE. I WAS JUST GONNA SAY IS THIS SOMETHING WE COULD JUST GET LIKE A NOT SURE IF IT'S THIS IS THE RIGHT TERM OR NOT, BUT LIKE A CONSULTANT OR SOMEONE JUST TO MANAGE THIS PROGRAM SINCE IT'S A PILOT PROGRAM, WE COULD AND WE CAN LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW OF ANYONE ELSE HANDLE ANY ORGANIZATION OF HAND THAT CAN DO IT. BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE DEFINITELY SHOULD CONSIDER. NO ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. I ONLY HAVE ONE IF WHEN, WHEN THIS PROGRAM IS ROLLED OUT, MAYBE IT WOULD BE HELPFUL. TO HAVE A LIST OF APPROVED SERVICE VENDORS. SO THAT, UM, WE'RE NOT WORRYING ABOUT SOME OF THE OTHER ISSUES THAT WAS MENTIONED TODAY. SO THAT'S THE ONLY COMMENT THAT I THAT I HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM OUR STAFF. SEEING

Nuisance Abatement Fund

NOW IT IS. THANK YOU. WELL, GOOD EVENING. THANKS MAYOR ONCE AGAIN. WELL WE HAVE COME TO A

[02:30:17]

SCENARIO. HOW MANY PROPERTIES WITH THE 50,000 COVER? WE DON'T KNOW AT THIS TIME, BUT WE THINK THIS IS ENOUGH TO GET US STARTED AND AT LEAST ADDRESS US. ONE OR TWO OF THEM WERE IMMEDIATE.

NUISANCES IN OUR COMMUNITY. I THINK THAT'S THE LAST SLIDE UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

ANY QUESTIONS FROM OUR COUNCIL, SEEING WHAT STONE AND THEN THOMAS IN THAT ORDER? SO THE FIRST QUESTION IS CAN THE FUNDS COME FROM LIKE THE BILL IN WELL , THE FUNDS WE DON'T WE HAVEN'T GENERATED. WE'RE NOT GENERATING ENOUGH REVENUE OUT OF THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT. THAT WE HAVE THIS SURPLUS AND THE BILLING DEPARTMENT YET. YOU KNOW, BUT CERTAIN THAT ONCE WE START PERMITTING, YOU KNOW NEW HOUSING UNITS AND NEW DEVELOPMENT, THEN OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW AN INCREASE, BUT I DON'T I CAN. I DON'T THINK WE CAN DO IT BECAUSE THOSE MONEYS ARE FISCALLY CONSTRAINED TO CERTAIN TO THAT FUND. YOU CAN'T USE IT TO DO OTHER THINGS. I DON'T WAIT WAS GOING TO SAY THAT'S WHY THE POINT MOST OF THE A LOT OF THE REVENUES THAT WE BRING IN EVEN FROM FEES AND SO ON, CAN DROP INTO THE GENERAL FUND AND BE USED FOR WHAT HAVE YOU BUILDING DEPARTMENT FUNDS COMING FROM FROM BUILDING PERMIT FEES, AND SO ON. THE LEGISLATURE HAS DONE A LOT OF CLAMPING DOWN ON IT. WE'RE NOWHERE NEAR THE THRESHOLD IT WHERE THEY SAY OH, YOU'RE TRYING TO FUND OTHER THINGS OUT OF YOUR BUILDING FUND. YOU KNOW YOU'RE BUILDING DEPARTMENT FUNDS. WE'RE NOWHERE NEAR THAT AT THIS POINT, BUT WE MAYBE SOMEDAY, SO THAT'S PROBABLY NOT

[02:35:05]

THEM. OKAY LIKE YOU WERE SAYING IS $50,000 ENOUGH? BECAUSE I MEAN, IF YOU HAVE THREE PROPERTIES, YOU KNOW, I KNOW A WHILE BACK. IT WAS ROUGHLY ABOUT $18,000 TO DEMOLITION OF PROBLEMS. SO. YOU KNOW YOU DO, TOO, IN YOUR PRETTY MUCH ALMOST OUT OF FUNDS AT AIRPORTS. WELL, YOU'RE RIGHT. THIS IS JUST A START. I MEAN, I THINK THIS RECOMMENDATION IS A. FIELD EXPEDIENT RECOMMENDATION, AND I THINK IN ORDER FOR US TO HAVE A LONGER TERM PROGRAM, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE POSSIBLY DEVELOPED BLOG GRANT FUNDS. YOU CAN USE THAT TO DO DEMOLITION AND THE COMMUNITY MEETING INTERNATIONAL OBJECTIVES AND SO WE COULD USE THOSE FUNDS TO DO THAT. BUT FOR NOW WE'RE AT THE END OF THE ROAD AT WHAT SPECIAL MAGISTRATE AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE WE HAVE ORDERS IN HAND TO DO THESE THINGS, AND SO WE NEED TO SET UP A FUND SO WE CAN KIND OF START TACKLING SOME OF THESE BIGGER ISSUES. SO FINANCE PERSONNEL IS HERE, RIGHT? YEAH.

SO. MAYBE THIS WOULD BE A QUESTION FROM FOR YOU. WHERE WOULD BE THE BEST PLACE FOR US TO TAKE THAT $50,000 FROM AT THIS POINT? AT THIS POINT IN TIME, WE WILL CERTAINLY BE HAVE TO COME FROM SOME SORT OF UNRESTRICTED REVENUE. TO SET IT UP IN THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT IS THAT WE'RE SAYING BEFORE. WE'D HAVE TO REALLY LOOK AT THE GENERAL FUND REVENUES WITH UNRESTRICTED FUNDS IN THERE, UM, TO BE ABLE TO ESTABLISH SOMETHING EXCEPT SPECIAL PROJECT OF REAL PAY FOR THAT. SO I GUESS THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST QUESTION FOR YOU AND THE SECOND ONE WOULD BE SHOULD WE DO THAT THIS PHYSICAL YEAR? OR SHOULD WE WAIT TILL NEXT PHYSICAL YEAR? I THINK THAT DEPENDS ON YOU KNOW HOW EXPANSIVE THE PROGRAM YOU WANT IT TO BE. UM YOU KNOW AGAIN, IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT $50,000 AS AN ANNUAL RECURRING AMOUNT UM, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH I MEAN. AND GO THROUGH THAT PRETTY QUICKLY. I MEAN, THAT'S NOT.

THAT'S NOT A LOT SO YOU KNOW, I THINK THE THINGS THAT I'M LOOKING AT NOW WITH HIS ESTABLISHMENT OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACCOUNTING. FUNDS IF YOU WILL TO HAVE THIS BETTER, LITTLE BIT MORE CLEARLY TRANSPARENT WITHIN THE BUDGET DOCUMENT ITSELF. I THINK THERE'S DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IN GENERAL. IT CERTAINLY COULD BE ESTABLISHED THIS YEAR. ONE OF THINGS I WAS GOING TO BE UP HERE TALKING TO YOU ABOUT SOME OF OUR PLANS FOR THE BUDGET AMENDMENT.

THAT'S SOMETHING WE COULD LOOK AT IN THE UPCOMING BUDGET AMENDMENT THAT WE HAVE PLANNED FOR LATER IN APRIL, BUT GOING FORWARD. WE CAN ESTABLISH A SEPARATE FUND JUST FOR THIS AND THE FUNDING SOURCES FOR IT COULD BE GENERAL REVENUES, SO MAYBE IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR US TO ASK STAFF TO COME BACK WITH SOMETHING NEXT MEETING. WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK PRETTY QUICK . THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE NIGHT. MR WILSON WRITES ME. YES UM, ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND YOU MENTIONED IT THAT ULTIMATELY WHEN THESE FUNDS ARE EXPENDED, THIS WOULD RESULT IN A LIEN ON THE PROPERTY SO THROW THAT OUT TO KEEP IN MIND. THESE MONIES AREN'T COMPLETELY SUNK. COSTS GONE FOR FOREVER. NOW I WILL TELL YOU FROM EXPERIENCE. SOMETIMES THEY WILL BE GONE FOR A LONG TIME YET BECAUSE YOU GOT TWO PATHS YOU GOT. LET'S SAY WE HAD A PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT NEEDED TO BE REMEDIATED NEEDED. KNOCK DOWN THE HOUSE ALL THIS STUFF AND IT WAS NOT A HOMESTEAD. OKAY? GO DOWN THAT PATH. DO THE WORK. LET'S SAY IT'S $15,000 12,000 DOLLARS. WHAT HAVE YOU? WE REPORTED LANE ON THAT PROPERTY. OKAY THAT, UM WE CAN FORECLOSE THAT LANE. THE RISKS ON THAT ARE IF THERE IS A SUPERIOR MORTGAGE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, IT COMES FIRST, AND WE EAT SECOND. AND SO IT'S VERY POSSIBLE THAT MONEY WILL GO AWAY. THERE IS A METHODOLOGY THAT IS USED IN A NUMBER OF JURISDICTIONS. SOME OF THE JURISDICTIONS I REPRESENT WHERE, UM, THOSE COSTS CAN BE PUT ON ON THE TAX ROLLS AS A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT, OKAY, BECAUSE YOU ARE, IN EFFECT BENEFITING THAT PROPERTY PROPERTY PROPERTY ORDER PROBABLY DOESN'T FEEL THAT WAY. BUT YOU ARE. YOU'RE CLEANING IT UP YOUR REMEDIATING A NUISANCE AND SO ON. UM IN A NUMBER OF JURISDICTIONS. THEY SET THINGS UP SO IT CAN GO ONTO THE TAX ROLES AND THEN YOU MUCH MORE DIRECTLY GET YOUR MONEY IN THAT INSTANCE THAT IS, UM I'LL SAY CONTROVERSIAL IN SOME PARTS OF THE STATE BECAUSE IT CAN BE A GIGANTIC LEAP AND PROPERTY TAXES FOR AN INDIVIDUAL AND THAT ENDS UP BASICALLY MEANING A LOT OF TIMES THAT PROPERTY ENDS UP GETTING SOLD FOR TAXES. UM AND MARTIN COUNTY'S SYSTEM UNDER THE TRANSITIONAL CODE THAT WERE

[02:40:05]

ONCE AGAIN. YES, IT'S GETTING STARTED. WELL WELL, IF IT'S THERE, I MEAN, IT WOULD BE A IF WE'RE ABLE TO USE IT. THAT WOULD BE A GOOD GOOD START. AND THEN YOU SAID SOMETHING ABOUT GRANTS . SO YOU KNOW WE'RE KIND OF GOING OVER AND ASKING THINGS THAT MAY HAVE ALREADY WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE GENERAL FUND OUT OF ALSO UM, TALKING ABOUT A LIEN ON A PROPERTY THAT WOULD, UM B IF IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT, AND YOU DON'T HAVE SOMEONE WORKING WITH YOU SAY YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT A PROPERTY OWNER THEY HAVE. THEY HAVE NO NO PLACE TO TURN. THEY KNOW THAT IT NEEDS TO BE DONE. WOULD WE BE ABLE TO DO IT AS KIND OF A ELAINE WONG. THAT THEY'RE ABLE THEY'RE ABLE WERE ABLE TO COME IN AND SAY, OKAY, WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THIS FOR YOU. UM IT'S GOING TO COST YOU $8000. SO WE'LL PUT A LIEN ON YOUR WELL, I CAN PAY IT BACK. $100 A MONTH.

CAN WE BE HAVE GENEROUS? UM TERMS WITH THEM LIKE ZERO INTEREST IF THEY PAY IT BACK, AND THEN THAT LEAN LESSENS OVER TIME, SO IF THEY SELL IT, WE, YOU KNOW AT LEAST IT GIVES THEM AN AVENUE THAT IF THEY'RE WILLING TO WORK WITH US, WE'RE WILLING TO WORK WITH THEM. I LIKE THAT. YOU KNOW, I REMEMBER. YOU KNOW, THIS IS ALMOST 30 YEARS AGO THAT WE HAD A PROCESS CALLED THE CONSENT TO LEAN PROGRAM IN THE SCAMPI COUNTY, FLORIDA. AND SO WHAT WE WOULD DO IS WHEN WE EVERY NOTICED THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THE PROPERTY OWNER COULD NOT PAY. TO HAVING HIS WORK DONE BECAUSE A LOT OF IT'S KIND OF LIKE, YOU KNOW, IT'S THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO DO IT.

WE ENTERED INTO A CONSENT TO LEAN THAT WAY. IT YOU KNOW, IT'S LEESON'S OUR LIABILITY OR EXPOSURE BECAUSE THEY AGREED TO THIS AND WORK OUT A GENEROUS PAYMENT PLAN. AND THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING. FINANCE WORKS THE NUMBERS AND WHAT THEY'RE WHAT THEY'RE ABLE TO PAY. WHAT IF THEY DEFAULT? IT COULD BE A PROBLEM, BUT IT'S A GOOD WAY OF HAVING A WIN WIN. SITUATION BECAUSE YOU GOTTA BECAUSE MOST OF FOLKS THAT HAVE PROPERTY THAT'S VOLUNTEER THIS STATE OF DISREPAIR. THEY WANT TO FIX IT. THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE THE MEAT. JUST DO NOT HAVE THE MEANS OR THE AVENUE. SO I THINK THAT THAT WOULD BE A GREAT THING TO, UM PRESENT HAVE AVAILABLE TO I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOU, BUT WE ACTUALLY HAVE OUR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICER. HE ACTUALLY PITCHES THIS TOO GOOD RESIDENTS WHEN WE GET TO THIS POINT, AND SO NOW HE'S NOT MET WITH HEARTY HANDSHAKE AND A SMILE WHEN HE WAS TALKING TO PEOPLE ABOUT IT, BUT HE TRIES TO GIVE THEM A OPTIONS. AND SO THIS IS ONE OF THE OPTIONS THAT HE ACTUALLY EXPLAINED TO PEOPLE. WHEN HE'S TALKING TO HIMSELF. WELL, GOOD. WELL I GIVE THE ONES THAT ARE WILLING AND WANT TO TAKE THAT AVENUE FOR THEM FOR THEM TO BE PRESENTED WITH THAT. I'M SURE IN SOME CASES IS JUST A IT'S DEFINITELY AN ANSWER TO PRAYER IN ORDER TO KEEP THEM IN THEIR HOMES OR KEEPING THEIR PROPERTY.

THANK YOU, HERNANDEZ. YES WE ALSO STATED THAT C B G D FUNDS. I KNOW THAT'S A THING WHERE YOU CAN ONLY PUT ONE APPLICATION PER CYCLE. YES. SO HOW ARE WE IN THAT? OKAY SO THAT'S GOOD QUESTION THERE BEHIND, OKAY, SO REMEMBER, WE GOT OUR 2019 THE FIRST TIME WE APPLY FOR SOLIDITY FUNDS. WE GOT IT LAST YEAR. AND SO WE'RE GETTING 2020 FUNDS MAYBE NEXT YEAR, SO IT'S ALL KIND OF BEHIND. AND I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT PROJECTS RIGHT NOW, BUT THEY'RE RELATED TO THE UPTOWN DRAINAGE AND ROADWAY DESIGN. AH, IT'S. WE HAVE A NUMBER OF PROJECTS IN THE PIPELINE, SO OKAY, SO THAT WOULD JUST GO INTO Q IF WE IF THE COUNCIL SAID, HEY, LISTEN, LET'S LET'S LET'S LOOK AT CDBG FUNDS. TH THAT'S A OUT HERE THING RIGHT NOW WOULD HAVE TO JUST PUT IT IN, MAKE THE REQUEST AND THE APPLICATION AND SAY WE NEED 707 $100,000 TO DO THIS AND THAT'S

[02:45:05]

TOMORROW IF WE CAN THANK YOU. AWESOME SEEING NO ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, MR

MUCH STAFF HERE TO BE LOOKING UP LEAN SEARCHES. I DON'T KNOW HOW . HOW MUCH HOW TEDIOUS IT IS, UM , YOU KNOW, THE COMPANY TAKES OVER THAT SEARCH. AND THEY AH, THEY JUST SEND YOU THE AMOUNT TO THE VILLAGE. SO IT CUTS A LOT OF LABOR, UM OR COST TIME FOR US.

I KNOW THAT, UM, GOVERNMENT WE CAN INVEST, BUT THERE'S CERTAIN, UM THINGS THAT WE CAN INVEST IN, AND WE WOULD LIKE, WELL, I WOULD LIKE FOR STAFF TO RESEARCH STAFF , BECAUSE, UH, YOU KNOW ANY LITTLE REVENUE WILL HELP.
