Identify Council Member's Individuals for Fact-Finding for Parks, Recreation and Sports Programs
UM COMMISSIONER OR COUNCIL MEMBER. APOLLO BROUGHT THIS FORWARD WANTING TO HAVE THE COUNCIL MEMBERS DESIGNATE AN INDIVIDUAL FOR THIS FACT FINDING MISSION IF YOU WILL, UM AND THEN THAT THAT INDIVIDUAL WOULD RETURN BACK, AND SO THIS WAS JUST AN OPPORTUNITY SO THAT STAFF COULD UNDERSTAND WHO EACH COUNCIL MEMBER WOULD WANT TO DESIGNATE SO THAT WE CAN COORDINATE WITH THEM ACCORDINGLY. I DON'T KNOW IF COUNCIL MEMBER DEPAULA WANTS TO ELABORATE ANYMORE, OR IT'S UP TO YOU. AS WE DISCUSSED. WE'RE GOING TO CREATE THIS, UH PARTY OF PEOPLE. WE'RE ALL GOING TO PICK SOMEBODY. GO OUT AND DO A FACT FINDING MISSION AND LOOK AT DIFFERENT GOVERNMENTS AND WHAT THEY'RE DOING. FOR THEIR SPORTS PROGRAM. AND GO OUT AND GET THE FACTS AND BRING BACK FACTS AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO THE BOARD TOGETHER AND THEY CAN. PRESENT TO US WHAT THEY FIND SO ACTUALLY, WE HAD DISCUSSED AND ATTORNEY BOSS WAS. YOU'RE GOOD.
YOU'RE GOOD WITH HIM. OKAY SO I THINK WE'RE JUST READY TO PICK, RIGHT? YES. OKAY. OKAY SO I GUESS WE GO AROUND THE ROOM COUNCIL MEMBER PEREZ, DO YOU HAVE ANYBODY? AT THE MOMENT. I DON'T UM ONLY BECAUSE YOU PLAN ON IT ONLY BECAUSE I DEAL WITH SPORTS. I AM ALREADY BEHIND THE SCENES. YOU KNOW, I DO SEE WHAT PBG THE PREDATORS ARE DOING WITH THE PALM BEACH GARDENS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. J. T. A YOU KNOW, NOW THAT MARTIN UNITED HAS MERGED WITH THE FOOTBALL FARMS NOW THERE, W AND H SO I'VE SEEN BEHIND THE SCENES. YOU KNOW, I HAVE MY INFORMATION THAT I NEED SO I DON'T KNOW IF I REALLY NEED SOMEONE BECAUSE AND I'M WITH, UM , COUNCIL MEMBER PEREZ. I'M NOT GOING TO APPOINT SOMEBODY BECAUSE I CAN FIND OUT THAT INFORMATION FOR MYSELF. UM STAFF . THEY CAN FIND OUT THAT INFORMATION. WE'RE NOT CREATING THE BOARD AT THIS MOMENT. WE'RE JUST ASKING SOMEONE TO GO AND FIND OUT THE INFORMATION FOR US AND BRING IT BACK TO US. UM I DO HAVE SOMEBODY FOR THAT BOARD WHENEVER WE CREATE THAT BOARD, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE DOING THIS EVENING. IT'S JUST FOR FACT FINDING PURPOSES ONLY WON'T BE. I WON'T BE APPOINTING ANYBODY
[00:35:04]
EITHER. COUNCIL MEMBER APOLLO, DO YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S GOING TO DO THAT? THE WHOLE POINT OF THAT WAS THAT WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THOSE PEOPLE AND SEND THEM OUT AND GO TO A FACT FINDING MISSION SO THEY CAN EDUCATE THEMSELVES ON WHAT OTHER ENTITIES ARE DOING. AND THEN WHEN THEY COME BACK THEN WE CAN POINT THEM TO A BOARD. THEY WOULD JUST TAKE OVER FROM THEY THEN THEY WOULD OFFICIALLY BECOME ABOARD. I THINK IT'S BECAUSE OF SUNSHINE CORRECT. NO, WE'RE GOOD IN THE SUNSHINE. AND I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. HOWEVER THEY WILL NOT BE MADE.THEY'LL GO OUT AND THEY'LL GET THE INFORMATION AND THEY ALL BRING THAT INFORMATION BACK TO STAFF STAFF WILL PUT IT IN SUCH A FORM THAT THEY WILL BE BROUGHT TO US AS A COUNCIL AND US AS THE COUNCIL WILL BE THE DETERMINING UM, FACTOR IN MOVING FORWARD WITH THAT AND HOW THAT PROCEEDS BECAUSE THE MASTER PLAN WILL BE COMING ALONG RIGHT AROUND THAT SAME TIME, TOO, SO AS FAR AS FACT FINDING ONCE AGAIN, I CAN I CAN DO MY OWN, YOU KNOW, UNDERSTAND AND LOOK AND SEE WHAT'S OUT THERE AND STAFF ALSO SO AND WHEN THE TIME COMES TO FORM THAT BOARD, I'LL HAVE SOMEBODY FORM THAT BOARD ONCE WE FIGURE OUT WHAT WE'RE DOING. SO DO SO. DO YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S DOING THAT? THAT YOU'RE POINTING TO DO THAT FOR YOU. I IF WE'RE GOING TO DO IF WE'RE NOT GONNA DO IT, THEN WELL, EVERYBODY HAS THEIR OWN. YOU HAVE SOMETHING? WE'RE GONNA POINT THE BOARD RIGHT NOW. WE'RE NOT. IT'S JUST JUST FROM WHAT I UNDERSTANDING. WE'RE APPOINTING SOMEBODY TO GO, IN FACT, FIND AND BRING BACK INFO. YOU GOT SOMEBODY THAT'S GOING TO GO FACT FIND AND BRING BACK INFO I WANTED. I WANTED US TO HAVE IT DONE AS A GROUP. SO THEN THAT WAY THAT GROUP CAN EDUCATE THEMSELVES. SO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT. OKAY, WELL, ONCE WE DECIDE WHICH WAY WE'RE GOING, AND THAT EDUCATION CAN HAPPEN, ARE YOU GOING TO APPOINT SOMEBODY OR TO BRING BACK INFORMATION OR NOT? IF WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT, THEN NO, I'LL JUST DO IT MYSELF. OKAY COUNCIL MEMBER, HERNANDEZ. I JUST HAD A QUESTION FOR MR VILLAGE ATTORNEY. THE REASONING WHY WE'RE DOING THIS FACT FINDING IS BECAUSE THE SUNSHINE CORRECT IT WOULDN'T FALL ON THAT . YES. SO WHAT? AS WE DISCUSSED AT THE LAST MEETING, THE IDEA WAS IF WE WERE NOT GOING THROUGH THE FORMAL PROCESS OF FORMING A BOARD BY RESOLUTION, OR WHAT HAVE YOU WHERE THEIR DUTIES WOULD INCLUDE GIVING RECOMMENDATIONS TO THIS BODY. AH BUT WAS JUST A SET OF FOLKS. YOU ALL SET OUT SOLELY WITH FACT, WITH INFORMATION GATHERING DUTIES GO, UH YOU ALL GAVE GUIDANCE. GO LOOK AT THESE FIVE PROGRAMS AND LEARN ALL ABOUT THEM AND COME BACK AND REPORT TO US. WHAT ARE THEY DOING? WHAT ARE THEY DOING WITH REGARD TO THIS TYPE OF SPORTS THAT HOW ARE THEY USING THEIR FIELDS ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS. AND THEN , UM, IN THAT INSTANCE THERE, I DIDN'T SEE ANY SUNSHINE PROBLEM WITH THEM ENGAGING IN THOSE ACTIVITIES, ONE OF THE BENEFITS THAT THAT KIND OF SIGN IN THE OPPORTUNITY. THERE IS IF THOSE HAPPEN TO BE THE SAME HUMAN BEINGS THAT WERE EVENTUALLY POINTED TO THAT BOARD. THOSE FOLKS WOULD GET UP TO SPEED AS TO WHAT SOME OF THE OTHER, UM, PROGRAMS ARE DOING IN THE TREASURE COAST AND DOWN IN PALM BEACH AND SO ON. BUT AGAIN, IT IS COMPLETELY AT THE AT THE WILL OF THE COUNCIL AS TO HOW YOU WANT TO PROCEED. OKAY. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ, DO YOU HAVE ANYBODY WITH APOLLO WIRE POINT SOMEONE UP FOR YOU? IT'S GONNA BE OKAY. SO ARE YOU.
ARE YOU APPOINTING OR NO? OKAY, SO NO, NO, YOU GOT ANYBODY. IT'S GONNA GO AND INFORMATION. NO FACTS AND COME BACK AND GIVE A REPORT SHORT ANSWER IS NO, UM I MEAN, MY WHOLE THING IS I GUESS THE LAST AGENDA ITEM I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO IT, BUT THAT WAS THE AGENDA ITEM WHERE I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND PUT THE BOARD TOGETHER. SO IT WOULD BE GOOD TO PROBABLY BRING THAT BACK AND JUST GO AHEAD AND PUT THE BOARD TOGETHER SO THEY COULD GET STARTED. WELL ARE THEY GETTING STARTED BEFORE THE MASTER PLAN BECAUSE THE MASTER PLAN IS DUE.
SEPTEMBER. SO IN SEPTEMBER. WELL I'M NOT SURE. BUT MAYBE MISS DEBBIE RESOURCE COULD HELP WITH US. IS IT GOOD TO HAVE THAT? COMMITTEE TOGETHER BEFORE OR AFTER. I MEAN, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO KIND OF WORK WITH THEM SO. THAT'S REALLY THE WILL OF THE COUNCIL. RIGHT NOW. WE'RE TRYING TO COLLECT DATA FROM THE COMMUNITY TO SEE WHAT THEY WANT. WHETHER OR NOT THE BOARD CAN DO ANYTHING OR MAKE ANY DECISIONS BEFORE WE HAVE ALL OF THAT INPUT . I DON'T SEE IT AS A BENEFIT, BUT AGAIN. THAT'S UP TO YOU TO MAKE THAT DECISION. SO I THINK WE COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ SO,
[00:40:03]
ACTUALLY, I WASN'T SORRY. MORE YOU KIND OF QUIET. THERE WAS WAITING FOR THE ANSWER TO BE COMPLETED, BUT EITHER WAY, UH, I JUST THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA. GO AHEAD AND PUT THEM TOGETHER, SO THAT WAY WE CAN AT LEAST START CREATING POLICIES. AND GET THAT OUT OF THE WAY. SO THAT WAY WHEN SEPTEMBER ROLLS AROUND ALL THE POLICIES ARE IN PLACE, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY TO MAKE UP THESE POLICIES AT THAT TIME. JUST MY RECOMMENDATION. COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ. IS THERE ANY WAY THAT WE CAN START BUT EXECUTE THE GROUP TO START UNTIL AFTER THE MASTER PLAN? SO THAT BY THE TIME THE MASTER PLAN IS PRESENTED AND FOLLOWING MEETING WE. WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR THIS PROCESS OF COMING BACK TO ANOTHER MEETING, CHOOSING THE PERSON AND THEN FILLING OUT APPLICATIONS AND ALL THAT. YEAH I'M WONDERING, WE CAN WE CAN DO THAT POSSIBLE TIMING OF IT ANYWHERE YOU WANT. I MEAN, WE COULD BRING BACK THE RESOLUTION WE HAD BEFORE YOU PREVIOUSLY AND YOU ALL COULD APPOINT AND THE BOARD COULD BE UH, CREATED AND THEN WHEN THEY SCHEDULED. THEIR FIRST MEETING IS WHENEVER, IN THE FIRST INSTANCE, WHENEVER YOU ALL WOULD DIRECT IF YOU WANTED TO GET HIM APPOINTED, BUT NOT HAVE A MEETING UNTIL UM UNTIL THE MASTER PLANS COME BACK. WE CAN CERTAINLY DO THAT. PROBABLY GONNA TAKE US THAT LONG TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS. AT THIS POINT. WE'RE ALREADY AT THE END OF JUNE. THANK YOU SO IT SHOULD COME SO IT WOULD COINCIDE WITH THE MASTER PLAN COMING BACK. IS THAT WHAT I'M HEARING? WHAT I'M HEARING? YES, DO THAT. OH, SO BRING THIS BACK. I WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M UNDERSTANDING THIS. BRING THIS ITEM BACK FOR APPOINTING ABOARD THE RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH THE BOARD WAS WHAT YOU WOULD TAPE TABLED OR PUSHED OUT OR WHATEVER WE COULD PLAN NOW TO BRING IT BACK ON THE 20/7 OF JULY. WE KNOW YOU'RE HAVING A MEETING THAT DAY BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT YOUR BUDGET. SCHEDULES AND SO WE COULD BRING THAT RESOLUTION BACK, GO AHEAD AND GET COUNCIL TO APPROVE IT. AND THEN WE WOULD START THE PROCESS OF ADVERTISING AND DOING WHAT WE WOULD NEED TO DO THAT THOSE APPLICATIONS AND THEN IN AUGUST AND WHICH IS ON THE HEELS OF THE MASTER PLAN, THEY WOULD JUST BE STARTING TO GET TOGETHER ONCE THE MASTER PLAN IS DRAFTED AND BEING RELEASED, BUT PROBABLY HELP US ALSO TO REVIEW THAT DRAFT MASTER PLAN TO MAKE SURE THERE'S NOTHING THAT HAS BEEN MISSED. OKAY DOES THAT SOUND LIKE A GOOD WAY FORWARD? IS IT I'M SEEING SOME SOME HEAD SHAKING PROACTIVE, OKAY? GOOD COUNSEL MEMBERS. APOLLO, WE HAVE SOMETHING. TALK ABOUT GOING TO SCHOOL. HE TALKED ABOUT GOING FLORIDA LEAGUE OF CITIES. THEY GOT GOOD PROGRAMS AND EVERYTHING . WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A BODY OF PEOPLE. THEY'RE PROBABLY NO NOTHING. OR VERY LITTLE. ABOUT BUILDING THE PROGRAM. WE'VE WE'VE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD IN THIS VILLAGE IN INDIAN TOWN. I'VE BEEN HERE FOR 30 YEARS I'VE SEEN THE STRUGGLES OF GETTING PROGRAM GOING. SO. WHY I WANTED TO DO WHAT I WANTED TO DO WITH WITH THIS, WITH THIS GROUP OF PEOPLE GOING OUT AND GETTING EDUCATED BECAUSE IT MIGHT LEARN SOMETHING. FROM A DIFFERENT ENTITY. YOU KNOW, WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT WATER PLANTS, I WENT TO PORT SAINT LUCIE. SEVERAL TIMES I TOURED THE WATER PLANT. I LEARNED ABOUT A LOT OF THE STUFF TO PATCH TALKING ABOUT. I CAN SEE IT. OKAY I'VE GONE AND I'VE LOOKED AT PARKS AND I'VE LOOKED AT PROGRAMS. THE ONE SITTING ON THAT BOARD. SO IT WOULD BE WISE FOR THIS COUNCIL TO WRITE. THIS GROUP OF PEOPLE GO OUT AND GET EDUCATED AND SEE WHAT'S OUT THERE AND BRING BITS AND PIECES OF IT BACK , AND IT MIGHT AFFECT OUR PLAN. IT JUST MIGHT AFFECT IT. I WANT TO SEE THE BEST POSSIBLE PROGRAM THAT WE CAN GIVE TO THE PEOPLE OF INDIAN TOWN. IT'S IMPERATIVE.IT'S PART OF THE TOTAL SUCCESS OF THIS VILLAGE. IF YOU DON'T SEE THAT, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY IT. OKAY, MAYBE. YEAH. I CAN'T FIND THE RIGHT WORD. BUT WHY WOULD YOU BRING A YOUNG FAMILY TO INDIAN TOWN. WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO OFFER FOR THAT FAMILY PARKS AND RECREATION PROGRAMS AS A ONE SINGLE BIGGEST THING? AND IF WE DON'T DO THIS, RIGHT, WE'RE GONNA BE SITTING HERE A YEAR FROM NOW. TWO YEARS FROM NOW, THREE YEARS FROM NOW DOING THE SAME THING OVER AGAIN. SO LET'S EDUCATE OURSELVES. THAT'S WHY YOU GO TO THE FLORIDA LEGAL CITIES. THAT'S WHY YOU GO TO THESE CLASSES. THAT'S WHY YOU DO ALL THIS STUFF. WELL, DON'T TAKE A GROUP OF PEOPLE THEY HAVE PROBABLY NEVER PUT PROGRAMS TOGETHER BEFORE AND SAY HERE, YOU'RE GOING TO CREATE POLICY
[00:45:01]
FOR US. YOU'RE GOING TO ADVISE US SOMETHING THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO. I WANT TO HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S BEEN EDUCATED AND GOING OUT. SPOKEN. AND FELT IT. AND BRING BACK THOSE PIECES OF THOSE PROGRAMS BACK TO INDIAN TOWN. SO THEN WE CAN CREATE THE BEST POSSIBLE PROGRAM. THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO DO. AND THAT'S WHY I SPOKE FOR HOURS TO WAIT. ON THIS SUBJECT. HOW IF YOU ALL WANT TO LET IT GO BY. WE'LL BE DOING THIS AGAIN. I'M SURE THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SO WHAT I'M HEARING IS JULY THE 20/7. IT WILL BE ON THE AGENDA. YES, MA'AM, AND AT THAT TIME WE CAN GET A BOARD TOGETHER. YOU'LL HAVE THE DOCUMENT IN FRONT OF YOU TO ESTABLISH THAT TO ESTABLISH A BOARD. I HAD A QUICK QUESTION. SORRY. YES MA'AM COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ RIZZO'S WHEN IS THE MASTER PLAN DUE IN SEPTEMBER? IS IT THE FIRST OR SECOND MEETING? I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND CHECK MY RECORDS. OKAY. THANK YOU. AND JUST TO BE CLEAR AND MAKE SURE THAT I'M UNDERSTANDING. THIS COUNCIL IS THE ONE THAT APPROVES THE POLICY. OKAY IT'S NOT THE PARTS OF RICK. THEY MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS. THEY MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS. BUT THIS BOARD IS THE ONE THAT THAT MAKES THE POLICY RECOMMEND. AND WE APPROVED IT WOULD OPERATE SIMILARLY, AS YOU HAVE WITH YOUR P C. A D BOARD. IS THERE ANY OTHER? I THINK WE HAVE PUBLIC COMMENT. YES, MADAM MAYOR ANNA FARIS. GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING. SO UM, I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT ON FORMING THE BOARD'S, UM. I PERSONALLY PARTICIPATED. IN PROGRAMS. THAT ARE. I'M FEELING THAT VOID IN THAT CAP. LIKE THE. THE ACTIVITIES THAT THEY'RE DOING FOR THE AGE GROUP.CUTTING OFF 13. BUT AGAIN, THE HIGH SCHOOLERS THAT ARE WANTING TO PROCEED IN SPORTS PROGRAMS. THEY HAVE TO GO ALL THE WAY, WEST COAST. TO EVEN MEAT OR X BUTTON INSPIRED THEM TO PROCEED AND CONTINUE TRYING TO WORK HARD TO EVEN BE SELECTED TO BE. DIVISION 3 TO 1, OR, UM, BE ABLE TO BE ACCEPTED IN COLLEGE. UM, TO INVITE SCOUTS. TO COME TO THE EAST COAST. WE NEED THOSE FACILITIES. WE DON'T HAVE THOSE FACILITIES. I UNDERSTAND WE'RE WORKING ON IT. BUT. I DON'T THINK THAT THE COMMITTEE IS GOING TO BRING THE SERVICES THAT WE NEED. WE CURRENTLY HAVE. TWO MAIN. UM FACILITIES THAT I RAN BY PROFESSIONALS THAT THEY ONLY THAT'S WHAT THEY DO. THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE KIDS KIDS ARE IMPROVING. BOYS AND GIRLS IS ONE AND, UM, THE Y M C.
A LOOK AT OUR FACILITY IN TOWN. AND LOOK AT THE FACILITY IN STUART. WHAT ARE THEY DOING FOR THEIR KIDS OVER THERE? ANY OF OUR KIDS WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE OVER THERE. WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO? TRAVEL TIME. ADD FEES BECAUSE MEMBERSHIPS THE MEMBERSHIP FEES IS THE SAME. BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME THING. SO IN THE MASTER PLAN. I UNDERSTAND THAT IT NEEDS TO BE REVIEWED AND ALL THOSE THINGS. BUT IN ORDER FOR EVEN HAVE AN IDEA OF CAN WE BRING PROGRAMS HERE THAT INVOLVED TENNIS, SOCCER? ALL THE OTHER SPORTS LIKE I NINE AND LUCY. NOT EVERYBODY IS GONNA WANT TO DO COMPETITIVE. AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THE RECREATIONAL IS IT'S THE MAIN FACTOR THAT I JUST DON'T THINK WE'RE THERE. TO EVEN A POINT. ANYONE BECAUSE AT THE SAME TIME WE HAVE TO WORK WITH BUDGET. WE HAVE TO WORK WITH. TIME OF COMMITTING TO THESE MEETINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BE FORMED FOR THIS COMMITTEE. AND AH, IT'S JUST. WITHOUT THE MASTER PLAN THAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG. UM, I THINK THAT. I KNOW WE WANT TO BE PROACTIVE, BUT WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND. BUT IT ENTAILS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. OKAY? THAT'S IT, OKAY? SO RIGHT NOW,
