FEW MOMENTS THIS MORNING TO UPDATE YOU 9:47:33AM ON SOME OF OUR RECENT ACTIVITIES AND THEN AT THE END, I'LL 9:47:37AM BE VERY HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. 9:47:39AM TAMPA BAY WATER'S MISSION IS VERY SIMPLE. 9:47:46AM IT IS TO PROVIDE RELIABLY CLEAN, SAFE DRINKING WATER TO THE 9:47:51AM TAMPA BAY REGION NOT ONLY NOW BUT FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. 9:47:56AM AS A QUICK OVERVIEW, WE WERE FORMED IN 1998 TO END WHAT 9:48:00AM YOU'VE HEARD I'M SURE THE DECADES-OLD WATER WARS. 9:48:05AM AND WE ALSO WERE MANDATED TO REDUCE GROUNDWATER PUMPING THAT 9:48:09AM AFFECTED THE ENVIRONMENT. 9:48:10AM WE ARE A NONPROFIT SPECIAL DISTRICT OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA, 9:48:15AM AND WE SERVE MORE THAN 2.5 MILLION PEOPLE THROUGH OUR 9:48:19AM SIX-MEMBER GOVERNMENTS. 9:48:20AM AS FAR AS I KNOW, WE ARE THE ONLY WATER UTILITY IN THE 9:48:25AM UNITED STATES THAT USES THREE SOURCES OF WATER THAT BLEND 9:48:28AM TOGETHER, AND THAT IS THE GROUNDWATER, SURFACE WATER, AND 9:48:32AM DESALINATED SEAWATER. 9:48:34AM WE HAVE 163 EMPLOYEES, AND WE CHARGE EACH OF THE MEMBER 9:48:38AM GOVERNMENTS THE SAME WHOLESALE RATE OF $2.62 PER THOUSAND 9:48:47AM GALLONS. 9:48:47AM TAMPA, AS COUNCILMAN MIRANDA SAID, HAS A SELF-SUPPLY OF 82 9:48:51AM MILLION GALLONS A DAY, BUT THERE ARE TIMES IN THE PAST AND 9:48:54AM INTO THE FUTURE THEY BUY WATER FROM US. 9:48:56AM SO THIS COMING BUDGET YEAR WE JUST STARTED, WE HAVE 9:49:00AM BUDGETED, CITY OF TAMPA TO PURCHASE 4.1 MILLION GALLONS A 9:49:04AM DAY. 9:49:06AM TWO YEARS AGO IN '23, THE CITY PURCHASED ALMOST 5 MILLION 9:49:09AM GALLONS A DAY. 9:49:10AM AND THEN LAST YEAR, THE YEAR WE JUST ENDED, ALMOST 4 MILLION 9:49:15AM GALLONS A DAY. 9:49:16AM THE CREATION OF TAMPA BAY WATER I'M HAPPY TO SAY WE ENDED 9:49:22AM THE WATER WARS. 9:49:23AM SINCE MY LAST UPDATE, I WAS HERE LAST YEAR. 9:49:28AM I CAN'T QUITE REMEMBER WHEN BUT I GAVE YOU AN UPDATE LAST 9:49:31AM YEAR, WE ARE WORKING HARD TO ADDRESS NEW WATER QUALITY 9:49:35AM PARAMETERS. 9:49:37AM WE ARE MEETING THE REGION'S SHORT-TERM WATER NEEDS, BUT NOT 9:49:40AM ONLY THAT, BUT ALSO THE LONGER TERM GROWTH NEEDS. 9:49:46AM AND, OF COURSE, AS YOU KNOW, THE REGION HAS HAD SOME 9:49:52AM WEATHER, FEW STORMS RECENTLY. 9:49:54AM I KNOW THAT YOU AND ALL THE OTHER MEMBER GOVERNMENTS 9:49:56AM CONTINUE TO RECOVER FROM THE BACK-TO-BACK HURRICANES THAT 9:49:58AM HIT OUR REGION. 9:49:59AM I'M VERY HAPPY TO SAY THAT THE REGIONAL DRINKING WATER 9:50:04AM SYSTEM WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE PROVIDING WATER TO ALL OF THE 9:50:07AM MEMBER GOVERNMENTS THROUGHOUT BOTH STORMS, DESPITE THE 9:50:12AM WIDESPREAD REGIONAL POWER OUTAGES, WIND AND FLOOD DAMAGES. 9:50:16AM I ALSO KNOW THAT THE CITY OF TAMPA STAFF WORKED VERY HARD 9:50:20AM THROUGHOUT THE STORMS TO ENSURE THE CONTINUED DELIVERY OF 9:50:24AM WATER TO YOUR CUSTOMERS. 9:50:25AM WE COORDINATED WITH YOUR STAFF THROUGHOUT BOTH EVENTS VERY 9:50:29AM WELL AND THE COMMUNICATION WAS VERY DONE WELL. 9:50:33AM THIS GRAPH REPRESENTS THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF WATER THAT WE 9:50:36AM DELIVERED IN THE WATER YEAR 2023 VERSUS WATER YEAR 2024. 9:50:43AM AS YOU LOOK AT IT, YOU COULD QUESTION THAT ALMOST THE SAME 9:50:49AM AMOUNT OF WATER FOR BOTH YEARS AND YOU'D SAY HOW CAN THAT BE 9:50:52AM WITH ALL THE NEW GROWTH AND THE DROUGHT WE HAD THAT STARTED 9:50:56AM ABOUT THIS TIME LAST YEAR. 9:50:57AM THE SOUTHWEST FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT ISSUED A 9:51:01AM ONE-DAY-A-WEEK WATER RESTRICTION LAST YEAR, AND IT WAS A 9:51:06AM TREMENDOUS HELP IN KEEPING DEMANDS DOWN AND ALLOWING US TO 9:51:10AM REDUCE OUR USE OF 15.5 BILLION GALLON RESERVOIR. 9:51:13AM WE USE THAT RESERVOIR AS OUR WATER SAVINGS ACCOUNT. 9:51:18AM IT WAS GETTING LOWER AND LOWER, SO THE WATER RESTRICTIONS 9:51:21AM AND WITH EVERYONE'S HELP, IT MAINTAINED THROUGHOUT THE 9:51:25AM DROUGHT. 9:51:25AM SPEAKING OF THE RESERVOIR, YOU SEE A PICTURE OF IT ON THE 9:51:30AM RIGHT. 9:51:31AM IT CURRENTLY IS AT TOP FULL CAPACITY OF 15.5 BILLION 9:51:35AM GALLONS. 9:51:36AM THAT'S IMPORTANT WHEN I SAY THAT TO YOU. 9:51:39AM WE TRY TO GET IT FULL BY THE END OF SEPTEMBER 30th OF 9:51:43AM EVERY YEAR. 9:51:44AM ON JULY 14, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, IT WAS AT 2.28 MILLION 9:51:49AM GALLONS -- BILLION GALLONS. 9:51:51AM SO 2 TO 15 IN, YOU KNOW, LESS THAN A FEW MONTHS IS 9:51:58AM REMARKABLE. 9:51:59AM WE'RE HAPPY ABOUT THE RAIN. 9:52:01AM I KNOW SOME OF THE FOLKS HAVE SUFFERED FROM THE FLOODING. 9:52:04AM WE DID GET OUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT REPLENISHED. 9:52:09AM OUR DESAL PLANT, WE DO HAVE A DESAL PLANT IN APOLLO BEACH. 9:52:13AM IT IS BEING READY TO BE STARTED UP LATER THIS MONTH. 9:52:17AM IT HAD TO BE TAKEN OFF-LINE LAST OCTOBER FOR REPAIR WORK, SO 9:52:21AM WE GOT THROUGH THE DROUGHT WITHOUT THE USE OF ONE OF OUR 9:52:25AM THREE SOURCES. 9:52:26AM AND THAT WILL BE BACK VERY SOON. 9:52:27AM REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE, ALL THE WATER WE SUPPLY TO OUR 9:52:34AM MEMBER GOVERNMENTS MEETS OR SURPASSES ALL OF THE DRINKING 9:52:38AM WATER STANDARDS. 9:52:39AM AND WE'RE TAKING STEPS TO ENSURE THAT WE KEEP PACE WITH THE 9:52:42AM NEW WATER QUALITY REGULATIONS. 9:52:44AM THESE REGULATIONS INCLUDE WHAT THEY CALL THE POLYFLUOROALKYL 9:52:53AM SUBSTANCES. 9:52:54AM THOSE ARE KNOWN AS PFAS OR FOREVER CHEMICALS. 9:52:59AM THEY ARE MAN-MADE CHEMICALS FOUND IN EVERYDAY PRODUCTS THAT 9:53:03AM WE USE. 9:53:04AM NEW REGULATIONS CAME OUT AND THEY ARE AT 4 PARTS PER 9:53:08AM TRILLION. 9:53:08AM THERE'S FIVE YEARS THAT YOU HAVE TO BE IN COMPLIANCE. 9:53:11AM SO THE YEAR 2029, YOU HAVE TO BE UNDER THE FOUR PARTS PER 9:53:14AM TRILLION IF YOU HAVE PFOS IN YOUR SYSTEM. 9:53:19AM WE COMPLETED LAST YEAR FOUR QUARTERLY TESTING RESULTS TO SEE 9:53:25AM IF WE HAD PFOS IN THE SYSTEM OR NOT. 9:53:27AM GENERALLY SPEAKING, DOWN IN THE SOUTH HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY 9:53:29AM AREA IN WHAT WE CALL THE BRANDON WILLIAMS, THE NUMBER WAS 9:53:32AM SLIGHTLY OVER THE 4. 9:53:34AM SO WE'VE HIRED A CONSULTANT THAT IS LOOKING AT DIFFERENT 9:53:38AM THINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS, AND A REPORT WILL BE OUT TO THE 9:53:42AM TAMPA BAY WATER BOARD IN EARLY JANUARY/FEBRUARY TO DEAL WITH 9:53:45AM THE TREATMENT PRIMARILY IN THAT AREA OF THE REGION. 9:53:48AM ALL OTHER TESTS WERE BELOW THE 4 OR NON-DETECT. 9:53:53AM BEYOND WATER QUALITY, WE ARE ALSO FOCUSING ON INCREASING THE 9:53:58AM QUANTITY. 9:54:00AM WE HAVE TO MEET THE FUTURE GROWTH NEEDS OF THE AREA. 9:54:03AM RIGHT NOW, WE HAVE TWO MAJOR PROJECTS IN THE WORKS TO MEET 9:54:06AM THE DEMANDS BY THE YEAR 2028. 9:54:09AM WE ARE WORKING TO EXPAND OUR SURFACE WATER TREATMENT PLANT 9:54:13AM TO BETWEEN 10 AND 12 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. 9:54:16AM AND THE EXPANSION IS CURRENTLY IN THE DESIGN PHASE AND IT IS 9:54:20AM SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE END OF 2028. 9:54:23AM AT THE SAME TIME, WE WERE ALSO DESIGNING A NEW SOUTH 9:54:27AM HILLSBOROUGH PIPELINE. 9:54:29AM THE PIPELINE IS A 26-MILE PIPELINE THAT WILL CARRY NEW WATER 9:54:34AM TO THE FASTEST GROWING AREA IN OUR REGION, SOUTH 9:54:38AM HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY. 9:54:39AM IT WILL BE BUILT IN TWO SEGMENTS. 9:54:42AM SEGMENT A AND A SEGMENT B. 9:54:44AM TAMPA BAY WATER IS FUNDING SEGMENT A AND HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY 9:54:48AM IS FUNDING SEGMENT B. 9:54:49AM THIS PIPELINE IS ALSO SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETE BY THE END OF 9:54:53AM THE FISCAL YEAR 2028. 9:54:58AM WE ARE ALSO LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE FOR NEW SUPPLIES. 9:55:00AM OUR DEMAND PROJECTION SHOW WE NEED BETWEEN 10 AND 15 MILLION 9:55:05AM GALLONS A DAY BY THE YEAR 2033 AND A TOTAL OF ABOUT 25 9:55:09AM MILLION GALLONS A DAY BY THE YEAR 2043. 9:55:12AM LAST NOVEMBER, THE BOARD APPROVED SEVEN PROJECTS. 9:55:17AM YOU CAN SEE THEM HERE ON THE GRAPH FOR FURTHER FEASIBILITY 9:55:22AM STUDIES. 9:55:22AM THE PROJECTS ARE ORDERED FROM THE NORTH TO THE SOUTH, AND 9:55:24AM THEY ARE SPATIALLY DIVERSE AND ALSO USE DIFFERING SUPPLIES. 9:55:30AM THEY INCLUDE FRESH GROUNDWATER, BRACKISH GROUNDWATER, 9:55:33AM SURFACE WATER, AND ADDITIONAL SEAWATER DESAL. 9:55:37AM WE JUST RECENTLY STARTED THE FEASIBILITY STUDIES ON THESE 9:55:41AM PROJECTS, AND IF ANY OF THEM ARE FEASIBLE TECHNICALLY, 9:55:45AM ENVIRONMENTALLY, AND ECONOMICALLY, WE WILL BE BRINGING THEM 9:55:49AM BACK TO THE BOARD FOR A RECOMMENDATION BETWEEN '27 AND '28, 9:55:54AM TO HAVE THE BOARD APPROVE THEM TO BE ONLINE BY THE YEAR 9:55:57AM 2033. 9:55:58AM WE ALSO CONTINUALLY ANALYZE OUR SYSTEM HYDRAULICS AND 9:56:05AM EMERGENCY SCENARIOS. 9:56:07AM WE GENERALLY HAVE BEEN UPDATING THIS REPORT EVERY TEN YEARS. 9:56:11AM WE MEET WITH ALL THE MEMBER GOVERNMENTS, AND WE DISCUSS 9:56:14AM DIFFERENT SCENARIOS THAT COULD HAPPEN. 9:56:17AM THE GOAL HERE IS TO MAKE SURE THAT IF ANYTHING HAPPENS, WE 9:56:20AM HAVE SOME BACKUP AND RESILIENCY AND RELIABILITY. 9:56:23AM WE HAVE KICKED THAT OFF. 9:56:26AM BY NEXT YEAR, WE SHOULD HAVE THE REPORT DONE. 9:56:28AM GENERALLY WHAT HAPPENS, IT IDENTIFIES AREA OF WEAKNESS 9:56:32AM VULNERABILITY AND A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ARE BORN 9:56:35AM FROM THIS. 9:56:36AM YOU ARE ABLE TO GET AHEAD OF THINGS AND PLAN FOR THEM BEFORE 9:56:40AM THEY HAPPEN. 9:56:42AM WITH THE RECENT STORMS, THAT IS A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF SOME 9:56:45AM OF THE THINGS. 9:56:47AM I HEARD ABOUT A HOT WASH EARLIER, WE HAVE COMPLETED OUR HOT 9:56:51AM WASH ON OUR STORM EVENTS, AND WE'RE ALSO GOING TO DO 9:56:53AM SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THIS YEAR. 9:56:55AM WE'RE GOING TO HAVE INFRASTRUCTURE FAILURE MEETINGS WHERE WE 9:57:00AM SEE WHAT DIDN'T WORK FOR US AND DID WORK FOR US AND SEE IF 9:57:03AM WE CAN DO A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY IN TIME FOR THE NEXT STORM 9:57:07AM SEASON THAT'S JUST AROUND THE CORNER HERE IN JUNE. 9:57:11AM THAT WAS JUST A BRIEF OVERVIEW. 9:57:14AM IT'S A VERY BUSY TIME AT TAMPA BAY WATER. 9:57:18AM THE REGION IS GROWING VERY FAST AND THERE ARE SOME NEW 9:57:20AM REGULATIONS IN THE WATER QUALITY THAT ARE OUT THERE. 9:57:23AM WE ARE COMMITTED TO SERVING THE COMMUNITY EVERY DAY, AND I 9:57:26AM WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO ALLOW ME TO GIVE 9:57:30AM YOU INSIGHT ON WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. 9:57:32AM WITH THAT, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. 9:57:34AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 9:57:35AM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA. 9:57:36AM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE JOB YOU DO. 9:57:38AM WATER IS A VERY FICKLE PROJECT. 9:57:41AM WHEN YOU HAVE IT, YOU DON'T NEED IT. 9:57:44AM WHEN YOU DON'T -- IT EVAPORATES, 15, 18 PERCENT OF THE 9:57:49AM VOLUME EVERY SINGLE DAY. 9:57:51AM IT'S VERY DIFFICULT. 9:57:52AM YES, WE HAVE AQUIFER STORAGE AND RECOVERY. 9:57:55AM THE CITY OF TAMPA PUTS IN 1.2 BILLION GALLONS OF WATER 9:57:59AM UNDERGROUND BETWEEN THE SUMMER MONTHS OF JULY, AUGUST, 9:58:01AM SEPTEMBER. 9:58:02AM TREATED, PUT BACK IN GROUND. 9:58:04AM WHEN WE NEED IT, USUALLY IN FEBRUARY THROUGH APRIL AND MAY, 9:58:07AM WE PULL UP 8 OR 10 MILLION GALLONS OUT OF THAT, RETREAT IT<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center sm:justify-center sm:flex-row sm:space-x-1 insert" style="margin-top:0;

9:58:16AM TWICE. 9:58:17AM YOU HAVE TO DO THAT BECAUSE OUR ONLY RESERVOIR ONLY HOLDS 9:58:20AM 1.2 MILLION GALLONS OF WATER AND LIKE A PLATE DISH. 9:58:23AM IN THE HILLSBOROUGH RIVER RIGHT WHERE THE DAM IS AT JUST TO 9:58:27AM THE EAST OF IT. 9:58:28AM THOSE THINGS ARE ALL NECESSARY FOR US TO BE A GOOD PARTNER 9:58:30AM WITH TAMPA BAY WATER. 9:58:31AM WE BUY AND SELL, MOSTLY BUY FROM TAMPA BAY WATER. 9:58:34AM ON OCCASION THEY BUY A FEW DROPS OF WATER FROM US. 9:58:37AM THAT'S WHAT MAKES US ALL CONTINUOUSLY WORKING FOR THE PEOPLE 9:58:40AM AT A VERY REASONABLE PRICE COMPARED TO OTHERS. 9:58:43AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 9:58:43AM BY THE WAY, I'M NOT GOING TO BANG MYSELF IN THE HEAD, BUT 9:58:46AM THE CITY OF TAMPA IS ONLY ONE OF FIVE UTILITY COMPANIES IN 9:58:50AM THE WHOLE UNITED STATES THAT HAS AAA BOND RATING. 9:58:53AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. 9:58:55AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 9:58:56AM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. 9:58:56AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I HAVE A QUESTION. 9:58:58AM THE EXPLOSIVE GROWTH YOU REFERRED TO AND THE OTHER SOURCES, 9:59:04AM IS THERE ENOUGH RECHARGE, RAIN COMING INTO THE SYSTEM TO 9:59:09AM SUPPORT THAT TYPE OF GROWTH AND EXPANSION OF PULLING THAT 9:59:12AM MUCH WATER OUT OF THE SYSTEM WITHIN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY? 9:59:15AM >> WELL, THAT IS A GROUNDWATER. 9:59:19AM WHERE YOU WOULD HAVE TO MODEL TO SEE THE IMPACTS OF PULLING 9:59:23AM GROUNDWATER OUT, I KNOW THAT AREA IS WHAT THEY CALL IN A 9:59:27AM WATER CAUTION USE AREA. 9:59:30AM YOU CANNOT GET WATER OUT OF THERE CURRENTLY BECAUSE OF SOME 9:59:34AM OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. 9:59:35AM WE DO HAVE A PROJECT THAT WE'RE DISCUSSING WITH HILLSBOROUGH 9:59:37AM COUNTY TO BE ALLOWED TO DO SOME GROUNDWATER WITHDRAWAL IN 9:59:41AM THAT AREA, ONLY FOR THE FACT THAT THEY ARE PUTTING TREATED 9:59:45AM RECLAIMED WATER DOWN ON THE COAST THAT'S ACTING -- PRESSURE 9:59:50AM BUILDUP INTERNALLY INTO THE COUNTY WHICH LIFTS THE WATER 9:59:53AM TABLE AND WE MODELED TO BE ABLE TO USE PROBABLY 6 MILLION 9:59:57AM GALLONS A DAY IN A NEW WELL FIELD INLAND ABOUT FIVE MILES 10:00:00AM FROM WHERE THEY ARE INJECTING RECLAIMED WATER. 10:00:03AM INSTANCES LIKE THAT, THAT CAN BE DONE. 10:00:05AM BUT CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW THE REGULATIONS IS NO WATER IN THAT 10:00:09AM WATER USE CAUTION AREA. 10:00:10AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I WAS CONFUSED TO SEE THIS ON YOUR MAP OF 10:00:14AM PROPOSED SITES THERE. 10:00:16AM I'M THINKING THAT'S INTERESTING. 10:00:17AM IT WASN'T THAT LONG AGO, A LOT OF OUR WELLS -- OUR WELLS 10:00:24AM WERE DRY. 10:00:24AM PONDS WERE DRY. 10:00:26AM FARMERS WERE STRUGGLING TO GET WATER TO DO THEIR CROPS. 10:00:30AM OF COURSE, WE HAD SEVERE WATER RESTRICTIONS.10:00:33AM I KNOW I SHARE THAT WITH COUNCILMAN MIRANDA, CONCERNED ABOUT 10:00:36AM THE LIMITED WATER SUPPLY AND THE TYPE OF GROWTH, ESPECIALLY 10:00:40AM IN THE ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS. 10:00:43AM HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET WATER INTO THESE COUNTIES WITH THESE 10:00:48AM PRESSURES? 10:00:49AM >> THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION TO ALLOW ME TO EXPAND ON TAMPA 10:00:52AM BAY WATER. 10:00:53AM WE EXPANDED -- WE WERE CREATED IN 1998, EACH OF THE MEMBERS 10:00:57AM KIND OF HAD THEIR OWN LITTLE SYSTEM. 10:01:01AM WHAT WE DID IS WE DIVERSED OUR SUPPLY. 10:01:04AM WE WENT AWAY FROM GROUNDWATER AND BUILT A SEAWATER DESAL 10:01:08AM PLANT, RESERVOIR TREATMENT PLANT AND KEY POINT, WE 10:01:12AM INTERCONNECTED THE WHOLE SYSTEM. 10:01:13AM I DON'T THINK I HAD THE MAP THAT SHOWS IT VERY WELL. 10:01:17AM IF YOU SAW THE BEFORE AND AFTER, YOU HAD THESE POCKETS. 10:01:20AM I CALLED THEM ISLANDS. 10:01:22AM THAT WAS IT. 10:01:24AM THAT'S WHAT THE MEMBERS GOT. 10:01:25AM NOW EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED. 10:01:27AM WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO MOVE WATER AROUND FROM DIFFERENT 10:01:30AM AREAS. 10:01:31AM IF THERE IS AN AREA THAT NEEDS SOME HELP, RECOVERY, WE CAN 10:01:36AM ROTATE OUR WELL FIELD WATER. 10:01:38AM WE CAN SEND WATER NORTH. 10:01:40AM WE CAN SEND WATER SOUTH.10:01:41AM SO WE'RE NOT LIMITED TO WHERE WE ARE AT. 10:01:44AM WE DON'T HAVE THE ONE WE GO IN ONE BASKET. 10:01:48AM WE HAVE PLENTY OF EGGS. 10:01:50AM WE HAVE LOTS OF OPTIONS NOW THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE. 10:01:52AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: DESAL PLANT OPERATING AT FULL CAPACITY, 10:01:54AM HOW MANY GALLONS A DAY WOULD IT GENERATE? 10:01:56AM >> 20 MILLION GALLONS A DAY WOULD BE FULL CAPACITY. 10:01:59AM THAT IS OUR INTENTION BY THE CALENDAR YEAR END OF THIS YEAR, 10:02:03AM DECEMBER, INTENDING TO BE AT 20 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. 10:02:05AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: ANY EXPANSION PROPOSAL WOULD GENERATE HOW 10:02:08AM MUCH? 10:02:09AM >> CAN BE EXPANDED UP TO 35 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. 10:02:12AM THERE WAS INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WAS PLACED ORIGINALLY TO HAVE 10:02:15AM A FUTURE EXPANSION. 10:02:17AM SO 35 IS THE TOP LIMIT THAT IT CAN GO TO. 10:02:21AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: PERSPECTIVE, HOW MUCH WATER DO YOU 10:02:23AM DISTRIBUTE TO YOUR USERS EVERY DAY? 10:02:25AM >> AVERAGE IS ABOUT 200 MILLION GALLONS A DAY. 10:02:29AM OF COURSE, THAT DIFFERS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 10:02:31AM WE CAN GO 250, 260 DURING THE DRY SEASON AND THEN GET AS LOW 10:02:37AM AS 175 DURING THE WETTER MONTHS. 10:02:41AM BUT ALSO, DURING THE DAY, IT DOES THAT SAME THING. 10:02:44AM EARLY IN THE MORNING, RIGHT AFTER 5:30 OR SO, YOU'LL SEE THE 10:02:51AM SPIKE. 10:02:52AM THE AVERAGE IS A MISLEADING NUMBER.10:02:55AM SOMETIMES YOU SAY, 200. 10:02:56AM BUT YOU GOT TO BE READY FOR 260, 270 AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. 10:03:00AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: STILL ONLY A SMALL PORTION OF OUR DAILY 10:03:02AM NEEDS. 10:03:02AM PEOPLE THINK THAT THE DESAL PLANT IS UNLIMITED SUPPLY OF 10:03:06AM WATER, IT'S JUST A SMALL PORTION. 10:03:10AM >> 10%, QUICK 20 OVER 200. 10:03:12AM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THANK YOU SO MUCH. 10:03:13AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 10:03:15AM ALL RIGHT. 10:03:15AM WE APPRECIATE THE PRESENTATION. 10:03:16AM >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING US. 10:03:18AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: AT THIS

10:15:47AM THE PEOPLE OF TAMPA FOUGHT HARD TO GET A SMALL AMOUNT OF 10:15:50AM POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY AND YOU SHOULD STAND UP TO RON 10:15:54AM DESANTIS' ATTEMPTS TO SILENCE ANY LEGITIMATE DEMANDS FOR 10:15:58AM POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY. 10:16:01AM AS OUR POLICE CITIZEN REVIEW BOARD CAN ONLY REVIEW CLOSED 10:16:05AM CASES AND NOT ISSUE ANY DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS AGAINST THE 10:16:10AM POLICE, THERE IS NO REASON TO DISSOLVE IT. 10:16:12AM ACCORDING TO THE BILL 601, BUT EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THAN 10:16:16AM THAT, YOU SHOULD ALL STAND UP AGAINST RON DESANTIS' PATHETIC 10:16:21AM ATTEMPTS TO BULLY THE PEOPLE AND STOMP OUT LOCAL DEMOCRACY. 10:16:24AM PEOPLE NEED SOME WAY TO PUBLICLY EXPRESS THEIR ISSUES WITH 10:16:29AM POLICE BRUTALITY AND MISCONDUCT WHICH IS CLEARLY STILL A

10:16:45AM SAY NO TO DESANTIS' ATTACKS ON THE PEOPLE. 10:16:48AM ALSO, MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT WE TRULY NEED IS A POLICE 10:16:52AM ACCOUNTABILITY ACT THAT WILL REQUIRE THE FORMATION OF 10:16:55AM CIVILIAN POLICE REVIEW BOARDS WITH REAL TEETH TO OVERSEE 10:17:00AM STATE, COUNTY, AND CITY POLICE DEPARTMENTS WITH THE FULL 10:17:03AM POWERS TO INDEPENDENTLY INVESTIGATE, DISCIPLINE, AND 10:17:06AM TERMINATE PROBLEM POLICE OFFICERS. 10:17:08AM WE ALSO NEED TO DO AWAY WITH QUALIFIED IMMUNITY BECAUSE IT10:17:14AM GIVES POLICE OFFICERS A VIRTUAL LICENSE TO KILL. 10:17:16AM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

HELPED THE NEIGHBORHOOD GROUP LOCATE AND MEASURE THE LIVE 10:40:52AM OAKS WHICH IS THE DOMINANT SPECIES ALONG THESE STREETS.10:40:58AM A 25-YEAR-OLD RESIDENT SURVEYED THE CANOPY IN THE AREA AND 10:41:02AM REACHED THESE CONCLUSIONS. 10:41:03AM IF THE ROUTES SELECTED FOR THE PROJECT GOES THROUGH OUR 10:41:06AM RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, IT WILL HAVE A DEVASTATING IMPACT 10:41:09AM ON OUR TREES. 10:41:10AM THE INSTALLATION OF LARGE BOX CULVERTS SPECIFIED IN THE 10:41:15AM PROJECT REQUIRE CURB TO CURB DEMOLITION WITH TRENCHES UP TO 10:41:19AM 20 FEET DEEP AND 10 FEET WIDE. 10:41:22AM THAT WOULD DECIMATE OUR TREE POPULATION. 10:41:27AM IMMATURE REPLACEMENT TREES WILL TAKE MANY DECADES TO ACHIEVE 10:41:30AM THE CANOPY WE HAVE NOW. 10:41:32AM IN SOME AREAS, SUCH AS BRISTOL AVENUE, THE MEDIAN WITH A 10:41:38AM HUNDRED-YEAR-OLD HISTORIC WELL AND OVER A DOZEN MATURE SHADE 10:41:41AM TREES WILL BE OBLITERATED. 10:41:43AM THE LOSS WOULD BE PERMANENT SINCE ONLY SHRUBS COULD BE 10:41:46AM REPLANTED IN THE MEDIANS. 10:41:48AM EVEN TREES IN HOMEOWNERS' GRANT YARDS COULD BE KILLED SLOWLY 10:41:54AM BY THE PROJECT DUE TO ROOT DAMAGE. 10:41:56AM LIVE OAKS IN PARTICULAR WHICH HAPPEN TO BE 82% OF THE TREES 10:42:00AM ALONG ONE OF THE PROPOSED ROUTES HAVE A SHALLOW, 10:42:03AM WIDE-RANGING ROOT SYSTEM THAT EXTENDS FAR BEYOND THE TIP OF 10:42:08AM THE LONGEST BRANCH KNOWN AS THE DRIP LINE. 10:42:11AM THE POTENTIAL LOSS TO THE TREES IS INCALCULABLE. 10:42:14AM SO THESE TREES ALSO, OF COURSE, REMOVE A LOT OF WATER WHICH 10:42:23AM IS WHAT WE NEED WITH THEIR ROOT SYSTEM AND PUTTING THESE10:42:29AM LARGE PIPES ON SUCH SMALL STREETS WILL NOT ONLY CREATE 10:42:34AM ACCESS DIFFICULTY FOR RESIDENTS AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE 10:42:38AM INTEGRITY OF THE OLDER WOODEN HOUSES, BUT PUTTING IN THE 10:42:41AM PIPES WILL DESTROY THE ROOTS OF THE GRAND LIVE OAKS IN THESE 10:42:45AM STREETS. 10:42:45AM DESPITE THE LARGE DECLINE IN TAMPA'S CANOPY NOTED IN THE 10:42:49AM LAST IS I SURVEY, REMOVAL OF THE GRAND OAKS HAS CONTINUED TO 10:42:54AM CAUSE LOSSES OF THE TREES. 10:42:56AM NOW WITH THE LARGE NUMBER OF TREES DECIMATED IN THE LAST 10:43:04AM MONTH STORMS MAKING, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE LIVE OAKS IN 10:43:07AM THE AREA ARE PRESERVED. 10:43:09AM FOR ALL THESE REASONS AND MORE, I AM REQUESTING THAT OTHER 10:43:12AM LESS DESTRUCTIVE AND MORE DIRECT ROUTES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED 10:43:16AM FOR THESE PIPES. 10:43:18AM ONE OF THE AUTHORS OF THE CITY TREE SURVEY RECENTLY SAID, IN 10:43:22AM MY HUMBLE OPINION, ANY LARGE OAK THAT SURVIVED THE STORM 10:43:26AM SHOULD BE GIVEN AN AWARD AND PROTECTED IN PERPETUITY. 10:43:29AM FIND AN ALTERNATE ROUTE FOR THE STORMWATER PIPES. 10:43:35AM PLEASE SAVE THE LIVE OAKS IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 10:43:38AM THANK YOU. 10:43:39AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 10:43:39AM MATTHEW BATTAGLIA IS NEXT. 10:43:43AM [ APPLAUSE ] 10:43:44AM PLEASE REFRAIN FROM CLAPPING. 10:43:46AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.10:43:46AM MATTHEW BATTAGLIA. 10:43:51AM >> MATTHEW BATTAGLIA. 10:43:52AM 2504 WEST PARKLAND BOULEVARD. 10:43:54AM MOVED THERE A FEW YEARS AGO TO GROW MY FAMILY AND MAKE 10:43:58AM LIFELONG MEMORIES. 10:43:59AM I'M A MEMBER OF THE PARKLAND ESTATES CIVIC CLUB. 10:44:03AM I KNOW YOU RECEIVED COMMUNICATIONS FROM THEM. 10:44:05AM I WANT TO BE CLEAR AND ON THE RECORD THAT THEY DO NOT SPEAK 10:44:07AM FOR EVERYONE IN THE GROUP. 10:44:08AM AFTER MY HOUSE, AMONG MANY OF MY NEIGHBORS WITH ME TODAY 10:44:11AM WERE FLOODED, NOBODY FROM THE GROUP CAME TO CHECK ON US OR 10:44:15AM ASK OUR INPUT. 10:44:16AM VERY CLEAR, THEY DO NOT REPRESENT THE ENTIRE GROUP AS A 10:44:19AM WHOLE. 10:44:19AM I'M IN FAVOR OF STARTING SOUTH HOWARD RELIEF -- FLOOD RELIEF 10:44:23AM PROJECT IMMEDIATELY. 10:44:24AM IT IS NOT THE FACT THAT I RUN TWO BUSINESSES OUT OF MY HOME 10:44:27AM AND INCOME HAS BEEN IMPACTED THERE. 10:44:29AM NOT THE FACT THAT MY WIFE RUNS A BUSINESS OUT OF OUR HOME. 10:44:32AM IT'S NOT THE FACT THAT MY FLOOR IS GETTING REDONE AS WE 10:44:35AM SPEAK AND MY LIFE IS DEALING WITH A NUMBER OF CONTRACTORS 10:44:38AM AND LOUD NOISES AND TWO CHILDREN BEING IMPACTED BY THAT 10:44:41AM QUITE A BIT. 10:44:41AM THAT IS A SMALL DEAL THING IN THE REAL GRAND SCHEME. 10:44:44AM I'M LUCKY TO HAVE MY SECOND DAUGHTER BECAUSE SHE WAS BORN ON10:44:49AM JUNE 18 THIS YEAR. 10:44:50AM EVERY SINGLE DAY THAT WENT BY WE HAD A RAINSTORM, WATER 10:44:53AM WOULD GO ANYWHERE FROM MY GARAGE AND FRONT STEPS OR HALFWAY 10:44:56AM UP MY DRIVEWAY. 10:44:58AM FIVE CARS FLOODED OUT IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE THAT I WAS HOME 10:45:01AM FOR THIS SUMMER. 10:45:02AM THIS IS NOT A HURRICANE MILTON THING. 10:45:04AM NOT A HURRICANE HELENE THING. 10:45:06AM THIS IS AN EVERYDAY THING FOR US AS FLORIDA NATIVES. 10:45:09AM IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT WE HAVE THAT MUCH WATER AT OUR 10:45:11AM HOUSE. 10:45:11AM WE ARE NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE. 10:45:13AM THIS STUFF IS COMING UP ALL OVER THE PLACE. 10:45:15AM THANK GOD DIDN'T RAIN ON JUNE 18 OR ELSE I WOULDN'T HAVE 10:45:18AM GOTTEN TO THE HOSPITAL. 10:45:19AM QUITE SIMPLE. 10:45:21AM THE LADY BEFORE ME, I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR TREES, I CARE 10:45:24AM ABOUT A MEDICAL EVENT IMPACTING ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS AND NOT 10:45:27AM GETTING THE ATTENTION THEY NEED. 10:45:28AM IF THERE IS A FIRE, GOD FORBID, NO EMERGENCY VEHICLES CAN 10:45:33AM GET DOWN OUR STREET. 10:45:35AM IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. 10:45:36AM IT'S UNACCEPTABLE. 10:45:37AM YOU KNOW WHAT, THE TREES ARE THE LITTLE DEAL THING. 10:45:39AM THE LIVES IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND MY COMMUNITY IS THE THING I<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center

PROBLEM, YOU SOLVE IT. 10:45:54AM IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT. 10:45:56AM THERE HAS TO BE A SOLUTION IN PLACE BEFORE NEXT SUMMER. 10:45:59AM EVERY DOLLAR I'M SPENDING OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE

10:46:11AM LASTLY, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO APOLOGIZE TO COUNCILMAN 10:46:13AM CARLSON. 10:46:14AM IN OUR LAST E-MAIL THREAD, YOU HAD SAID THERE'S NO PROOF OF 10:46:19AM CATEGORY 3 SEWAGE WATER IN -- THAT FLOODED OUT OUR 10:46:23AM NEIGHBORHOOD. 10:46:24AM I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BRING MY WIFE'S TOTALED CAR OR PAIR OF 10:46:27AM MY DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL SHOES HERE BUT THE FESTERING WHO KNOWS 10:46:31AM WHAT THAT WAS GROWING IN THE ITEMS KIND OF PREVENTED ME FROM 10:46:34AM BRINGING THEM HERE TODAY. 10:46:35AM I GUARANTEE IF NOTHING GETS DONE, COME ON DOWN AND TAKE A 10:46:40AM SWIM IN MY FRONT YARD BECAUSE IT WILL BE THERE AGAIN. 10:46:44AM [ APPLAUSE ] 10:46:45AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 10:46:46AM PRIANKA GERRISH.10:46:55AM TINA ADAMS. 10:46:56AM MILA GERRISH. 10:46:59AM >>

IT'S VERY DIFFICULT 10:47:18AM TO EXPLAIN THE PRESSING URGENCY THAT WE HAVE TO WANT TO FIX 10:47:23AM THIS. 10:47:23AM I AM PRO STARTING THE SOUTH HOWARD RELIEF FLOOD PROJECT. 10:47:28AM I AM ALSO A MEMBER OF PARKLAND ESTATES CIVICS CLUB AND THEY 10:47:32AM DO NOT REPRESENT MY OPINION. 10:47:34AM WE HAVE MANY NEIGHBORS WHO HAVE BEEN IN A SIMILAR SITUATION, 10:47:37AM AND I WANTED TO PRESENT A LITTLE PIECE THAT THE NEWS CAME 10:47:43AM AND DID FOR US. 10:47:45AM HOPEFULLY YOU'LL BE ABLE TO HEAR IT. 10:47:51AM >> RECORDING: DAVID ADAMS IS CLEANING UP AFTER HURRICANE 10:47:56AM MILTON FLOODED HIS HOME IN PARKLAND ESTATES IN TAMPA. 10:47:58AM HIS POSSESSIONS ON THE CURB, HIS NEIGHBORS SHARE A SIMILAR 10:48:01AM STORY. 10:48:04AM >> THE FEAR OF DOING ALL THIS AND PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER10:48:06AM AND HAVING IT FLOOD NEXT HURRICANE SEASON OR EVEN IN 10:48:09AM RAINSTORMS WE HAVE FLOODING, IT'S REALLY UNEASY AND VERY 10:48:14AM EMOTIONAL CHALLENGING. 10:48:15AM >> THE FAMILY LIVES ACROSS THE STREET. 10:48:17AM BOUGHT THEIR HOUSE TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO. 10:48:19AM TOOK CELL PHONE VIDEOS OF WATER IN THE STREET AND INTO THEIR 10:48:24AM HOME DURING MILTON. 10:48:25AM NOW FORCED TO START OVER. 10:48:27AM >> BASE BOARDS RIPPED UP, DRYWALL, LOST WEDDING PHOTOS, LOTS 10:48:32AM OF PERSONAL ITEMS, GARAGE AND FIRST FLOOR. 10:48:35AM >> NEIGHBORS SAY THE NEIGHBORHOOD FLOODED NUMEROUS TIMES IN 10:48:38AM THE PAST AND FLOODING IS AN ISSUE RELATED TO THE CITY'S 10:48:41AM STORMWATER SYSTEM. 10:48:42AM ADAMS CREATED A WEBSITE CALLED STOP FLOODING IN PARKLAND 10:48:45AM ESTATES. 10:48:46AM >> IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE CAPACITY OF THE WATER, 10:48:49AM WHICH HAS BEEN STUDYING FOR NINE YEARS, THESE HOUSES WILL 10:48:52AM CONTINUE TO FLOOD. 10:48:53AM >> MAP ON THE CITY OF TAMPA'S WEBSITE SHOWS PLANNING FOR THE 10:48:56AM SOUTH HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT. 10:48:58AM IT INVOLVES DESIGNING AND BUILDING A MAJOR STORMWATER 10:49:00AM CONVEYANCE SYSTEM TO IMPROVE DRAINAGE AND REDUCE FLOODING 10:49:04AM ALONG SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE AND ADJACENT NEIGHBORHOODS, 10:49:06AM INCLUDING PARKLAND ESTATES. 10:49:08AM A CITY SPOKESPERSON SAYS THE PROJECT IS ON PAUSE

AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD ENCOURAGE SUPPORT FOR THE 10:49:31AM PROJECT. 10:49:32AM NEIGHBORS HAD THEIR HOMES DESTROYED IN JUST HOURS. 10:49:35AM AND IF THEY CLEAN UP, THEY ARE WORRIED ANOTHER STORM MAY 10:49:39AM THREATEN THEIR HOUSES ONCE AGAIN. 10:49:42AM ABC ACTION NEWS. 10:49:44AM >> I WOULD LIKE TO SAY. 10:49:45AM I'M ALSO A TREE LOVER, GARDENER, I LOVE SPENDING TIME 10:49:48AM OUTSIDE.

DESIGN-BUILD PROCESS. 10:51:01AM I HAVE FAITH AND I TRUST THAT ENGINEERS AND THE 10:51:04AM PROFESSIONALS THAT YOU ALL HAVE EMPLOYED AND HIRED TO LOOK 10:51:08AM INTO THIS FOR NINE YEARS AND TO RESEARCH THIS AND TO DEVELOP 10:51:11AM THE BEST PLAN POSSIBLE. 10:51:14AM THEY HAVE STUDIED THIS FOR OVER TEN YEARS. 10:51:17AM THEY HAVE DONE THESE JOBS BEFORE. 10:51:19AM THIS IS NO TIME FOR AMATEUR HOUR. 10:51:22AM WE NEED WORK. 10:51:24AM WE NEED PROFESSIONALS, WE NEED KNOWLEDGE. 10:51:27AM AND WE NEED TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.10:51:29AM PLEASE LET THE PROFESSIONALS DO WHAT THEY WERE TRAINED TO 10:51:36AM DO. 10:51:36AM STOP THE NEEDLESS FLOODING BECAUSE OUR STORMWATER SYSTEM IS 10:51:43AM OVERBURDENED, INADEQUATE AND OUTDATED. 10:51:45AM WITH THAT BEING SAID, THERE ARE SOME THINGS I DON'T 10:51:51AM UNDERSTAND. 10:51:51AM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN HELP ME WITH THIS OR NOT. 10:51:54AM WHY IS A GROUP OF APPROXIMATELY 26 BUSINESSES, THE SOHO 10:51:59AM BUSINESS ALLIANCE,

SALONS, HAIR SALONS, DEVASTATING LOSSES. 10:52:22AM THOSE 26 BUSINESSES WON'T BE INCONVENIENCED? 10:52:25AM I DON'T UNDERSTAND. 10:52:28AM WHY HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN STUDIED FOR TEN YEARS? 10:52:32AM AND THE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE THERE. 10:52:34AM THE PROFESSIONALS HAVE SAID, THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE. 10:52:37AM THIS IS THE PROBLEM, THIS IS HOW WE SOLVE IT. 10:52:39AM WHY AREN'T WE DOING IT? 10:52:42AM ALL THAT'S NEEDED IS TO START DIGGING. 10:52:48AM WHY AREN'T WE DIGGING? 10:52:49AM WHY AREN'T WE DOING THIS? 10:52:51AM WHY ARE WE STILL TALKING ABOUT THIS? 10:52:53AM WHY ISN'T THIS PROJECT ALREADY

NOT BE AN EMERGENCY TO THE PEOPLE AND BUSINESSES THAT 10:53:08AM DIDN'T FLOOD, BUT IT IS TO THE REST OF US. 10:53:12AM IT IS. 10:53:12AM IT IS TO THE SCHOOL ON SWANN AVENUE, TO THE CHURCH ON SWANN 10:53:18AM AVENUE. 10:53:19AM THE LOADS OF SMALL BUSINESSES, THE PHYSICIANS ON SWANN 10:53:24AM AVENUE, THE FAMILIES AND THE PEOPLE IN PALMA CEIA PINES AND 10:53:27AM THE PEOPLE IN PARKLAND ESTATES.

10:54:02AM AT AROUND 9 P.M. THE WATER LEVELS WERE RISING RAPIDLY AND I 10:54:06AM WATCHED AS MY PARENTS PANICKED AND HAD TO MAKE QUICK 10:54:10AM DECISIONS.10:54:10AM WHEN THE WATER REACHED OUR HOME, WE WERE ALL ON OUR HANDS 10:54:13AM AND KNEES WITH TOWELS. 10:54:15AM OUR ENTIRE FIRST FLOOR FLOODED. 10:54:18AM CLEANING UP IS GOING TO BE A LONG, STRESSFUL ROAD. 10:54:22AM IMAGINE IT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME IT RAINS.

RAINSTORMS POSE A THREAT TO OUR SAFETY. 10:55:31AM OVER 15 YEARS, CITY OF TAMPA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM. 10:55:34AM IT MAY NOT BE MY FAMILY'S CONTROL BUT IT IS 100% WITHIN THE 10:55:37AM CITY'S

10:57:36AM HOUSE IS LOCATED. 10:57:37AM I HAD NINE INCHES OF WATER. 10:57:38AM SINCE 2015, THE CITY HAS BEEN STUDYING THE PROBLEM BUT TEN 10:57:41AM YEARS LATER YOU STILL HAVE TAKEN NO ACTION. 10:57:43AM ANY COUNCIL MEMBER THAT THINKS YOU HAVE TIME TO CONTINUE 10:57:45AM DELIBERATING, LET ME SHOW YOU A FEW MORE PHOTOS. 10:57:49AM THIS IS SEPTEMBER 4 IN PALMA CEIA PINES. 10:57:51AM NO HURRICANE OR EVEN A TROPICAL DEPRESSION. 10:57:53AM IT WAS JUST A TYPICAL WEDNESDAY SUMMER STORM. 10:57:56AM I HAD WATER IN MY GARAGE. 10:57:57AM SAME GOES IN PARKLAND ESTATES WHERE SUMMER RAINS MADE THE 10:58:00AM STREETS IMPASSABLE TEN TIMES BETWEEN JUNE AND SEPTEMBER. 10:58:03AM I KNOW THERE ARE BUSINESSES ON SOUTH HOWARD THAT DO NOT WANT 10:58:06AM THEIR FOOT TRAFFIC REDUCED. 10:58:08AM I UNDERSTAND. 10:58:08AM BUT THOSE 26 BUSINESSES ARE LOOKING AT REDUCED TRAFFIC FOR 10:58:11AM ROUGHLY SIX WEEKS. 10:58:13AM WHAT ABOUT THE 56 BUSINESSES THAT HAVE BEEN CLOSED FOR FOUR 10:58:16AM WEEKS NOW WITH ZERO FOOT TRAFFIC AND THOUSANDS THEY ARE 10:58:18AM HAVING TO SPEND TO REBUILD? 10:58:20AM WHY ARE THE INTERESTS OF 26 BUSINESSES ON HOWARD MORE 10:58:23AM IMPORTANT THAN THE INTEREST OF 56 BUSINESSES THAT HAVE NOW10:58:26AM FLOODED TWICE? 10:58:27AM THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN FUNDED SINCE 2022. 10:58:29AM YOU'VE RECEIVED 31 QUARTERLY REPORTS FROM THE ENGINEERING 10:58:33AM DEPARTMENT. 10:58:33AM THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR FURTHER DELAY. 10:58:35AM YOU HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED. 10:58:39AM THE CITY ENGINEERS HAVE SPENT YEARS COMING UP WITH THE MOST 10:58:41AM COST-EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. 10:58:44AM YOU KNOW WHAT THE PUBLIC THINKS. 10:58:46AM THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE FLOODED THEIR HOMES AND BUSINESSES WANT 10:58:48AM YOU TO TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. 10:58:51AM PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT BEEN VICTIMS OF FLOODING DON'T WANT YOU 10:58:54AM TO TAKE ACTION. 10:58:54AM THE RAINS START AGAIN IN APRIL. 10:58:56AM THERE WILL BE MORE FLOODING. 10:58:58AM IT IS INEVITABLE. 10:58:59AM THE ONLY QUESTION IS, HOW MANY TIMES WILL YOU ALLOW THROUGH 10:59:02AM YOUR INACTION OUR HOMES AND OUR BUSINESSES TO FLOOD BEFORE 10:59:04AM YOU FIX THE PROBLEM? 10:59:06AM THE NUMBER THERE SHOULD BE ZERO. 10:59:09AM PLEASE, APPROVE THE KIMMINS CONTRACT AND MOVE FORWARD 10:59:12AM IMMEDIATELY. 10:59:12AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 10:59:14AM >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME -- 10:59:17AM [ APPLAUSE ]10:59:20AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: PATRICK CIMINO, JOHN SIMON. 10:59:23AM HOPE I READ THAT CORRECTLY. 10:59:25AM MATT RADECK. 10:59:25AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 10:59:26AM >> MY NAME IS PATRICK CIMINO. 10:59:29AM CHAIR OF THE HISTORIC HYDE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION 10:59:32AM LAND USE COMMITTEE. 10:59:33AM I'M HERE TO APPEAL TO YOU ALL TO PLEASE HOLD MOBILITY IN THE 10:59:39AM CITY ACCOUNTABLE FOR INFORMATION THEY ARE PROVIDING ABOUT 10:59:42AM THE HOWARD RELIEF PROJECT. 10:59:44AM THESE ARE HORRIBLE STORIES. 10:59:46AM MY NEIGHBORS HAVE BEEN FLOODED, TOO, IN HYDE PARK. 10:59:48AM WE'VE HAD UNPRECEDENTED RAIN. 10:59:50AM SOME OF IT IS CHRONIC, SOME OF IT NOT. 10:59:53AM HOWEVER, THE 25-YEAR-OLD PROPOSAL ON THE TABLE, THEY HAVE 10:59:57AM NOT CLEARLY STATED A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT FACTS. 11:00:01AM ONE BEING THEY ARE FUNNELING WATER FOR A HUGE AREA WEST OF 11:00:05AM MacDILL NORTH TO KENNEDY OVER TO THE SELMON INTO HOWARD 11:00:09AM AND INCLUDING THE SELMON AND THAT WILL END UP AT HOWARD AND 11:00:12AM BAYSHORE. 11:00:13AM WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE KING TIDE? 11:00:14AM WHAT HAPPENS WITH STORM SURGE? 11:00:17AM THAT WATER WILL BACK UP INTO MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND IN BAYSHORE 11:00:20AM GARDENS. 11:00:21AM SOMETHING ABSOLUTELY HAS TO BE DONE, BUT LET'S NOT MAKE THE11:00:25AM MEDICINE WORSE THAN THE DISEASE. 11:00:26AM ANOTHER ISSUE -- AND I'LL POINT TO A PROJECT THAT'S 50 YEARS 11:00:32AM OLD IN FOREST HILLS, FLOODING 50 YEARS AGO. 11:00:33AM THEY PUT INFRASTRUCTURE IN OUTSIDE OF THE FLOOD AREA THAT 11:00:38AM HAS NOW FLOODED CHRONICALLY FOR YEARS AND HORRIBLY FLOODED 11:00:42AM DURING MILTON. 11:00:43AM AGAIN, CAN'T MAKE THE MEDICINE. 11:00:45AM I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT ANSWER IS BUT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN 11:00:47AM FORTHCOMING, MOBILITY AND ADMINISTRATION HAVE NOT BEEN 11:00:49AM FORTHCOMING. 11:00:50AM OTHER WATER MANAGEMENT WE NEED TO KNOW, TWO PROJECTS WITH 11:00:55AM ELEVATOR SHAFTS. 11:00:56AM THEY HAD TO PUMP WATER FOR SIX MONTHS DOWN HOWARD AND 11:01:00AM DE SOTO IN FRONT OF NEIGHBORS' HOUSES. 11:01:02AM THOSE ARE LITTLE TINY PROJECTS. 11:01:04AM THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT MASSIVE WATER INTRUSION ALONG HOWARD. 11:01:08AM WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO WITH WATER? 11:01:10AM WE JUST WANT ANSWERS. 11:01:13AM THAT WILL GO INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. 11:01:14AM YEAH, IT'S NOT A PROBLEM TODAY BUT IT MAY WELL BE A PROBLEM. 11:01:17AM WE'RE WORRIED ABOUT HISTORIC ASSETS. 11:01:21AM BERN'S, BERN'S CELLAR, BAYSHORE ROYAL, BRISTOL. 11:01:26AM WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY FIRM REASSURANCES ABOUT ANY OF THOSE. 11:01:30AM WORRIED ABOUT DETOURING. 11:01:32AM NO SPECIFICS ABOUT THAT.11:01:34AM FINALLY, FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT. 11:01:35AM WE'RE VERY WORRIED ABOUT THAT. 11:01:37AM IF THE PRECEDENT OF FINANCIAL -- THIS IS A NO-BID CONTRACT. 11:01:42AM IF THE PRECEDENT FOR FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT IS HANNA, THIS HAS 11:01:46AM 70 PLUS WHATEVER MILLION DOLLARS, YOU BETTER BUDGET OVER 11:01:49AM $200 MILLION BECAUSE THAT'S HOW MUCH RAN OVER AT HANNA. 11:01:53AM WE NEED GOOD STEWARDSHIP. 11:01:55AM WE NEED SOLUTIONS, BUT THEY HAVE TO BE THE RIGHT SOLUTIONS. 11:01:59AM THEY CANNOT CAUSE NEGATIVE IMPACTS DOWN STREAM TO OTHER 11:02:04AM PEOPLE AND WE'RE NOT CONVINCED. 11:02:06AM ACCOUNTABILITY, TRANSPARENCY. 11:02:08AM THAT'S WHAT WE WANT FROM MOBILITY AND THE CITY AND THE 11:02:12AM ENGINEER. 11:02:13AM WE'VE NOT GOTTEN IT. 11:02:14AM EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A 25-YEAR-OLD PROJECT. 11:02:17AM THEY'VE HAD A LOT OF TIME BUT NOT A LOT OF INFORMATION 11:02:19AM LATELY. 11:02:19AM SO I THANK YOU.

SAMAHA. 11:09:39AM GOOD MORNING, MA'AM. 11:09:44AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 11:09:44AM GOOD MORNING, MA'AM.11:10:32AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND WE'LL START THE CLOCK. 11:10:34AM >> YVONNE FERRELLI. 11:10:36AM I LIVE IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:10:37AM I HANDED YOU ALL BINDERS. 11:10:40AM I AM GOING DIRECTLY TO DOCUMENT THREE, WHICH IS THE FLOODING 11:10:46AM THAT IS REPRESENTED IN THIS MAP HERE ON THE STAGE HERE. 11:10:50AM THAT MAP WAS CREATED BY THE MOBILITY DEPARTMENT TO REFLECT A 11:10:56AM TYPE OF FLOODING THAT WOULD OCCUR AFTER THE SOUTH HOWARD 11:11:00AM PROJECT STORM SYSTEM HAD BEEN INSTALLED IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:11:05AM SO THIS MAP REFLECTS FLOODING THAT WOULD OCCUR IN A 11:11:11AM SUBSTANTIAL STORM LESS THAN MILTON, AND IT INCLUDES FLOODING 11:11:15AM UP IN PALMA CEIA PINES AND PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:11:19AM IT IS ESSENTIALLY THE SAME AMOUNT OF FLOODING THAT OCCURRED 11:11:23AM DURING MILTON IN THIS AREA, SO WE KNOW THAT EVEN IF THAT 11:11:25AM PROJECT HAD BEEN INSTALLED IT WOULD NOT HAVE HELPED THE POOR 11:11:29AM PEOPLE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND THOSE THAT FLOODED IN PALMA 11:11:32AM CEIA PINES. 11:11:33AM THIS IS ANOTHER IN THE SERIES OF THESE MAPS THAT THE 11:11:45AM MOBILITY DEPARTMENT CREATED. 11:11:49AM IN THIS YOU SEE THIS IS MY NEIGHBORHOOD, AND IT STILL IS 11:11:55AM REPRESENTED BY LIGHT BLUE AS FLOODING IN THAT AREA AFTER THE 11:12:00AM PROJECT HAS BEEN COMPLETED. 11:12:02AM YOU SEE PALMA CEIA PINES IS COMPLETELY FLOODED IN THIS MAP, 11:12:10AM EVEN AFTER THE PROJECT HAS BEEN INSTALLED. 11:12:12AM SO THIS IS A FLOODING OF A FIVE-YEAR EVENT.11:12:18AM FIVE-YEAR EVENT IS ESSENTIALLY A SUMMER STORM. 11:12:21AM YOU'VE HEARD PEOPLE HERE TODAY THAT HAVE DESCRIBED JUST A 11:12:26AM REGULAR RAINSTORM CAN CAUSE TWO TO THREE FEET OF FLOODING IN 11:12:30AM PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:12:31AM THIS IS A REFLECTION OF THAT. 11:12:33AM IT'S CALLED THE FIVE-YEAR EVENT, AND THERE WOULD STILL BE 11:12:37AM FLOODING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AFTER THE PROJECT HAS BEEN 11:12:41AM INSTALLED AS IT IS CURRENTLY PROPOSED. 11:12:43AM I ASK YOU TO LOOK AT DOCUMENTS 5A AND 5B. 11:12:56AM AGAIN, THIS IS A CLOSER INSPECTION. 11:12:57AM THIS MAP WAS CREATED BY THE MOBILITY DEPARTMENT, AND YOU SEE 11:13:02AM HERE THESE ARE THE FLOODED AREAS THAT WILL REMAIN IN 11:13:06AM PARKLAND ESTATES AFTER THE PROJECT IS COMPLETED. 11:13:12AM THIS IS THE ASSOCIATED E-MAIL THAT GOES WITH THAT MAP. 11:13:19AM AND YOU SEE THAT THEY REFER TO JEAN DUNCAN AND THEY SAY IN 11:13:24AM THE LIGHT BLUE BLOBS ARE ESSENTIALLY WHAT WILL REMAIN AFTER 11:13:28AM COMPLETING THIS PROJECT. 11:13:29AM THAT'S BECAUSE THEY HAVE GIVEN THIS PROJECT FIVE-YEAR EVENT 11:13:35AM GOAL, AND THAT IS NOT ENOUGH TO CURE THE PROJECT OR THE 11:13:39AM FLOODING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:13:40AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MA'AM. 11:13:41AM ALL RIGHT. 11:13:47AM NEXT UP WE HAVE MIKE BARNA, MARILYN SAMAHA AND ROCK 11:13:55AM SCAGLIONE. 11:13:56AM >> GOOD MORNING.11:13:56AM MY NAME IS MIKE BARNA. 11:13:58AM I'M A 35-YEAR RESIDENT OF PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:14:01AM WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THIS FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT, I WENT TO A 11:14:08AM MEETING AND I WAS TOLD BY THE PEOPLE THERE TO PLEASE GET 11:14:11AM INVOLVED. 11:14:13AM AFTER GETTING INVOLVED, I WENT TO A CITY COMMUNITY MEETING 11:14:17AM AND WAS TOLD AT THE MEETING BY THE CITY AND THE DESIGN-BUILD 11:14:23AM CONTRACTOR THAT WE NEED FLOOD RELIEF. 11:14:27AM THIS IS THE PROJECT. 11:14:29AM WE WANT TO DO MINIMAL AMOUNT OF DAMAGE TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS. 11:14:33AM AND THEY PROPOSED THREE DIFFERENT ROUTES FOR THE FLOOD 11:14:37AM RELIEF PROJECT. 11:14:38AM TWO THAT CUT THROUGH PARKLAND ESTATES AND ONE THAT WENT 11:14:41AM AROUND PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:14:42AM THROUGH MY ENGINEERING BACKGROUND, ENGINEERING TRAINING, I 11:14:50AM WAS TAUGHT TO TAKE A PROBLEM, COME UP WITH A POSSIBLE 11:14:54AM SOLUTION, WHICH WE ALREADY HAVE. 11:14:57AM WE ALL WANT FLOOD RELIEF. 11:14:59AM EVERYBODY IN PARKLAND ESTATES WANTS FLOOD RELIEF. 11:15:02AM WE JUST WANT THE BEST POSSIBLE SOLUTION. 11:15:04AM IF YOU TAKE ALL THE VARIABLES, YOU PUT THEM TOGETHER, IT 11:15:08AM SEEMS LIKE IF THERE ARE DIFFERENT ROUTES, WHY WOULD YOU TAKE 11:15:10AM THE ROUTE FOR A COMMERCIAL PROJECT, WHICH IS NEEDED, AND 11:15:17AM DESTROY A NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN YOU CAN GO AROUND THE 11:15:21AM NEIGHBORHOOD.11:15:21AM IT JUST SEEMS LIKE COMMON SENSE TO ME. 11:15:24AM THANK YOU. 11:15:24AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 11:15:27AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:15:27AM MARILYN SAMAHA, ROCK SCAGLIONE, GREG CAMPBELL. 11:15:36AM GOOD MORNING, MA'AM. 11:15:43AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 11:15:45AM >> MY NAME IS MARILYN SAMAHA. 11:15:48AM I LIVE IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:15:50AM I WAS ELECTED TO THE PECC BOARD IN MAY, AND I HAVE 11:16:01AM PREVIOUSLY BEEN ON THE PECC BOARD AND I HAVE LIVED IN OUR 11:16:05AM NEIGHBORHOOD FOR OVER 30 YEARS. 11:16:07AM OUR BOARD HAS BEEN SUPPORTIVE OF ALL OF OUR NEIGHBORS AND 11:16:12AM TRANSPARENT WITH THEM IN OUR COMMUNICATIONS ABOUT THE SOUTH 11:16:15AM HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT. 11:16:17AM WE HAVE POSTED PEC STATEMENTS MULTIPLE TIMES ON SOCIAL MEDIA 11:16:22AM CHANNELS. 11:16:23AM OUR PCC WEBSITE AND HELD NEIGHBORHOOD MEETINGS THAT WERE 11:16:27AM DESIGNED TO GET THIS INFORMATION OUT TO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:16:30AM THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT ABOUT PEC'S COMMITMENT TO RESOLVE 11:16:36AM THE FLOODING ISSUES IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:16:40AM WE HAVE BEEN SUPPORTIVE WITH NEIGHBORS AFFECTED BY THE FLOOD 11:16:44AM AND THE PROPOSED SOUTH HOWARD FLORIDA ROUTE TO JOIN PEC -- 11:16:50AM PECC TO FIND A STRONGER LEVEL OF SERVICE FROM THE CITY THAT 11:16:55AM WOULD PROVIDE ALL NEIGHBORS WITH A BETTER SOLUTION THAN WHAT11:17:00AM HAS BEEN PROPOSED. 11:17:02AM I BELIEVE WE ARE ALL IN AGREEMENT THAT FLOOD RELIEF IS 11:17:05AM NEEDED AND PCC WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH CITY COUNCIL, 11:17:09AM STAFF, AND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:17:11AM PCC WANTS A DESIGN WITH COMMUNITY INPUT PLAN, NOT A 11:17:17AM DESIGN-BUILD PLAN. 11:17:18AM WE STAND WITH FIVE OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS AND AREA 11:17:22AM BUSINESSES THAT DO NOT SUPPORT THE ORIGINAL SOLUTION AND 11:17:26AM ROUTE PUT FORTH BY STAFF. 11:17:27AM PECC WANTS A STRONGER LEVEL OF SERVICE TO BE PROVIDED BY 11:17:33AM MOBILITY STAFF SO THAT PARKLAND ESTATES DOESN'T FLOOD. 11:17:36AM WE'D LIKE TO WORK WITH MOBILITY STAFF TO THOUGHTFULLY REWORK 11:17:42AM THE PROJECT GOALS AND ACHIEVE BETTER FLOOD RELIEF FOR OUR 11:17:45AM NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:17:45AM LARGE BOX CULVERTS AS PROPOSED ARE NOT APPROPRIATE FOR OUR 11:17:50AM NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:17:51AM TREE-LINED STREETS. 11:17:52AM ON THE STORMWATER UNDERGROUND MAP ON TAMPA.GOV, I'VE LOOKED 11:17:56AM AT MAJOR ARTERIES LIKE MacDILL, ROME, SWANN. 11:18:00AM THERE ARE NO BOX CULVERTS. 11:18:02AM WHY OUR NEIGHBORHOOD? 11:18:03AM PECC WANTS TO BE NOTIFIED IN A TIMELY FASHION ABOUT ALL CITY 11:18:10AM COUNCIL AND MOBILITY STAFF MEETINGS THAT ADDRESS THE SOUTH 11:18:13AM HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT RELATED TO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD 11:18:20AM AND/OR TAKE PLACE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.11:18:21AM INCUMBENT ON PECC TO BE TRANSPARENT AND INFORMED BY THE 11:18:24AM CITY. 11:18:25AM THANK YOU SO MUCH. 11:18:26AM I APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE AND TIME. 11:18:29AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:18:30AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:18:30AM NEXT UP, WE HAVE ROCK SCAGLIONE, GREG CAMPBELL, AND FRANK 11:18:37AM FERNANDEZ. 11:18:38AM WELCOME. 11:18:39AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 11:18:40AM >> GOOD MORNING, CITY COUNCIL. 11:18:42AM MY NAME IS ROCK SCAGLIONE, 2718 WEST TERRACE DRIVE. 11:18:47AM MY FAMILY AND I HAVE LIVED IN PARKLAND ESTATES FOR SIX 11:18:49AM YEARS. 11:18:50AM I HAVE A REAL ESTATE BACKGROUND AND HELP MANY OF THE 11:18:53AM NEIGHBORS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD SELL AND BUY THEIR HOME. 11:18:55AM I WAS ELECTED TO THE BOARD ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO AND CHOSEN 11:18:59AM TO BE PRESIDENT. 11:18:59AM SO WE HAVE STEPPED FORWARD TO ASSEMBLE. 11:19:02AM QUICK BACKGROUND, PARKLAND ESTATES, MANY OF YOU ALREADY 11:19:05AM KNOW, 350 HOMES. 11:19:07AM RICH HISTORY. 11:19:08AM HUNDRED YEARS DEEP. 11:19:10AM LOTS OF MATURE TREE CANOPIES. 11:19:12AM PEOPLE CHOOSE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD TO BE CLOSE TO HYDE PARK,11:19:15AM CLOSE TO BAYSHORE. 11:19:18AM PARTICULARLY BECAUSE WE'RE NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE. 11:19:20AM I DO REAL ESTATE. 11:19:20AM I KNOW PEOPLE HAVE DRIVEN TO THE AREA BECAUSE OF THAT. 11:19:23AM AND THERE'S NO DOUBT THAT THERE IS A FAILURE OF THE 11:19:26AM STORMWATER SYSTEM AND OUR BOARD IS HIGHLY EMPATHETIC TO THE 11:19:29AM LOSSES THAT NEARLY 10% OF OUR NEIGHBORS HAVE SUSTAINED 11:19:32AM DURING THE HURRICANE IN PARTICULAR. 11:19:34AM WHEN THE BOARD AND I TOOK OFFICE IN APRIL, WE CAME TOGETHER 11:19:38AM TO QUICKLY SORT OF ASSEMBLE WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON. 11:19:41AM MANY OF US, MANY OF THE NEIGHBORS AT-LARGE DID NOT KNOW 11:19:43AM ABOUT THIS SOUTH HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROGRAM. 11:19:46AM THERE WAS POOR COMMUNICATION ACROSS THE BOARD. 11:19:49AM BUT NOW THAT WE SORT OF DUG IN AND WE'VE BEEN LISTENING TO 11:19:52AM THE NEIGHBORS, LISTENING TO THOSE IMPACTED, LISTENING TO 11:19:54AM EVERYONE, I'M TRYING TO GET A CONSENSUS OF THE CONCERNS OF 11:19:57AM THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHICH I BELIEVE ARE A LARGER PLAN MAY TAKE 11:20:03AM SEVERAL YEARS. 11:20:03AM WE NEED A QUICK-FIX. 11:20:05AM WE NEED SOMETHING TO HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS. 11:20:07AM WE SEE WATERS FROM THE NEIGHBORHOODS TO THE NORTH ARE 11:20:09AM FLOWING DOWN. 11:20:10AM VIDEO CAPTURING COMING DOWN AUDUBON, ARMENIA AND SO FORTH. 11:20:14AM WHAT ARE THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS DOING OR WHAT ARE WE DOING TO 11:20:17AM HELP THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS SUSTAIN THEIR OWN WATER?11:20:19AM THERE USED TO BE A MASSIVE CONCRETE FOUNTAIN IN FOUNTAIN 11:20:22AM PARK. 11:20:23AM WE BELIEVE THERE COULD BE THIS LARGE CONCRETE IMPERMEABLE 11:20:28AM SURFACE UNDERNEATH THE SOIL. 11:20:30AM WE WANT AN INVESTIGATION INTO THAT TO SEE IF THAT'S POSSIBLY 11:20:33AM PREVENTING SOME OF THE NATURAL DISSIPATION. 11:20:35AM WE BELIEVE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ON THE 11:20:38AM CURRENT STORMWATER PIPES AND DEBRIS COULD BE CREATING 11:20:43AM BLOCKAGES. 11:20:44AM STORMWATER PLAN, STRONGLY FEEL LARGE BOX CULVERTS NO PLACE 11:20:47AM ON SMALL TREE LINED HISTORIC STREETS AND WE PREFER THEM TO 11:20:51AM BE THE BIG AREAS AND THE BIG ROADS. 11:20:54AM WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE OTHER ROUTES THAT COULD POTENTIALLY 11:20:57AM BE EXPLORED. 11:20:58AM WE HAVE NOT HEARD OF THEM. 11:21:00AM WE WOULD LIKE MORE OPTIONS ON THE TABLE. 11:21:03AM WE BELIEVE IF WE SUPPORT DESIGN WITH COMMUNITY INPUT, CITY 11:21:10AM ENGINEERS, CITY COUNCIL, AND THE COMMUNITY, ALL OF US CAN 11:21:12AM COME TOGETHER TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY ON A PLAN THAT 11:21:14AM ACHIEVES ALL OF OUR GOALS. 11:21:16AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND SERVICE. 11:21:18AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 11:21:19AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:21:19AM NEXT UP, GREG CAMPBELL, FRANK FERNANDEZ, RUMELA DOSS. 11:21:28AM PLEASE

LAST MAY WITH 11:21:46AM SUPPORT FROM BOTH SIDES. 11:21:47AM I'M NOT SURE I WOULD HAVE IT NOW, BUT YOU SEE THAT WE HAVE 11:21:51AM DIFFERENCES AMONG US. 11:21:54AM TRYING TO WORK THROUGH THOSE DIFFERENCES AND COME TO A 11:21:57AM CONCLUSION WE CAN ALL AGREE ON IS THE BIGGEST ASSIGNMENT FOR 11:22:02AM US. 11:22:03AM I THINK I'VE SEEN PROGRESS. 11:22:05AM THERE'S OBVIOUSLY STILL MORE TO MAKE. 11:22:07AM WE NEED YOUR HELP, YOUR SUPPORT. 11:22:13AM COMING UP MOST IN VERY SHORTLY, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, YOU HAVE 11:22:17AM TO VOTE FOR OR AGAINST A DESIGN-BUILD PROJECT. 11:22:21AM AS I UNDERSTAND THAT, DESIGN-BUILD, IF YOU APPROVE IT, YOU 11:22:27AM EFFECTIVELY REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THE PROCESS THEREAFTER. 11:22:32AM IT PROCEEDS ON ITS OWN COURSE. 11:22:35AM WE'RE ASKING YOU NOT TO DO THAT BECAUSE WE NEED YOUR 11:22:40AM CONTINUED HELP AND SUPPORT AS WE WORK THROUGH OUR OWN ISSUES 11:22:44AM AND AS WE SEEK TO WORK WITH OTHER NEIGHBORING ASSOCIATIONS 11:22:49AM AND ALL TOGETHER TO WORK ON A PROJECT THAT REALLY CAN BE 11:22:55AM GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY. 11:22:55AM SO OUR PLEA TO YOU, AS IT COMES UP, VOTE FOR DESIGN WITH 11:23:01AM CONTINUED COMMUNITY INPUT SO THAT TOGETHER WE CAN WORK OUT A<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center sm:justify-center sm:flex-row sm:space-x-1 insert" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;"><ins class="adsbygoogle sm:w-1/2" style="display:block;

11:23:23AM THAT IS GROUND ZERO FOR FLOODING. 11:23:26AM BARBARA AND I ARE NOW IN AN AirBnB BUNGALOW AS OUR HOME IS 11:23:32AM BEING FUMIGATED AND ALL THE THINGS THEY HAVE TO DO. 11:23:36AM WE KNOW ABOUT FLOODING. 11:23:38AM MY PARENTS BOUGHT THAT PROPERTY IN 1953, AND I'VE SEEN IT 11:23:42AM ACROSS ALL THESE YEARS. 11:23:44AM WE DO KNOW ABOUT FLOODING. 11:23:47AM MILTON WAS THE WORST. 11:23:48AM NO WATER IN THE HOUSE BEFORE THEN, BEFORE THE LAST COUPLE OF 11:23:52AM WEEKS, BUT ABOUT AN INCH NOW. 11:23:54AM THAT WREAKS HAVOC. 11:23:56AM WE DO NEED HELP. 11:23:58AM I DO THINK THAT THE IDEA OF BOX CULVERTS ALONG COMMERCIAL 11:24:04AM AVENUES LEADING TO THE BAY IS A VERY GOOD ONE. 11:24:07AM I'M NOT AN ENGINEER, BUT IT MAKES COMMON SENSE. 11:24:11AM BUT NOT IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS WITH THE TREE-LINED STREETS AND 11:24:14AM THE OLDER HOMES WHERE YOU DESTROY THE AMBIENCE. 11:24:18AM YOU CUT OFF YOUR HAND IN THE PROCESS TO SOLVE A PROBLEM. 11:24:21AM WE CAN HAVE BOTH. 11:24:25AM BOX CULVERTS IN THE AVENUES AND PIPES, LARGER CONCRETE PIPES 11:24:32AM IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS. 11:24:35AM BOX CULVERTS ON THE MAIN THOROUGHFARES.11:24:38AM THAT'S THE WAY WE THINK WE CAN GO. 11:24:41AM WE DO NEED YOUR HELP. 11:24:43AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:24:44AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:24:44AM FRANK FERNANDEZ. 11:24:47AM RUMELA DOSS, AND AMY BROWN. 11:24:52AM THAT'S HOW I READ IT. 11:24:54AM GOOD MORNING, SIR. 11:24:55AM >> FRANK FERNANDEZ. 11:24:55AM GOOD MORNING, DISTINGUISHED CITY OF TAMPA COUNCIL MEMBERS. 11:25:02AM I OWN THE BUSINESS ON THE CORNER OF SWANN AND ARMENIA. 11:25:07AM 2503 WEST SWANN AVENUE. 11:25:09AM ALSO OWN THE BUILDING DIRECTLY BEHIND THAT AT 609 SOUTH 11:25:12AM ARMENIA. 11:25:13AM I WOULD URGE YOU TO VOTE FOR THIS RELIEF PROJECT. 11:25:19AM YOU'VE HEARD A LOT FROM PEOPLE FOR A LONG TIME. 11:25:23AM OUR BUILDING WAS SEVERELY AFFECTED BY CAUSING HUNDREDS OF 11:25:27AM THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN DAMAGE. 11:25:29AM I OWN THREE BUSINESSES THAT OPERATE OUT OF THAT BUILDING, 11:25:32AM AND WE ARE STILL NOT UP AND RUNNING. 11:25:34AM THERE'S NO ONE IN THE BUILDING. 11:25:36AM HAD TO BE CLEARED OUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE STORM. 11:25:39AM I HAVE MULTIPLE OTHER BUSINESSES THAT OPERATE OUT OF MY 11:25:43AM BUILDING. 11:25:44AM OTHER LAW FIRMS, ACCOUNTING FIRMS, OTHER PROFESSIONALS THAT11:25:48AM HAVE BEEN DISPLACED. 11:25:50AM IT'S A PROBLEM. 11:25:56AM THE ISSUE IS THIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECT THAT NO ONE WANTS TO 11:26:00AM GO THROUGH IT. 11:26:00AM I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO BE TROUBLED BY THE DESTRUCTION OF 11:26:04AM THE ROADS. 11:26:04AM I WILL I HAVE IN HYDE PARK JUST DOWN THE ROADWAY. 11:26:07AM BUT THE QUESTION FOR YOU ALL IS A VERY SIMPLE ONE. 11:26:13AM IS IT NECESSARY? 11:26:13AM THAT'S THE ONLY QUESTION BEFORE YOU. 11:26:18AM EVERYBODY HAS TALKED ABOUT ISSUES, BUT REALLY THE ONLY 11:26:22AM QUESTION BEFORE YOU IS, IS IT NECESSARY? 11:26:24AM WE HAVE SEEN THE PICTURES OF ALL THE FLOODING THAT'S 11:26:27AM HAPPENED REPEATEDLY EVEN WHEN THERE ARE NOT HURRICANES 11:26:31AM APPROACHING US. 11:26:32AM OUR BUILDING, WHEN WE BUILT IT IN 2014 THROUGH 16 WAS CIVIL 11:26:39AM ENGINEERED TO AVOID FLOODING AND IT DIDN'T. 11:26:41AM SO IT'S DEFINITELY NECESSARY. 11:26:45AM YOU HAVE A MOBILITY STAFF WHO TOLD YOU IT'S NECESSARY. 11:26:48AM YOU HAVE CIVIL ENGINEERS WHO HAVE GIVEN YOU REPORTS SAYING 11:26:51AM IT'S NECESSARY. 11:26:53AM AND YOU'VE KNOWN THESE THINGS FOR YEARS. 11:26:57AM YOU HAVE A FEW OWNERS OF BUSINESSES THAT ARE IN OPPOSITION 11:27:00AM TO IT. 11:27:00AM THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE.11:27:01AM IT WILL AFFECT THEIR BUSINESSES BUT IN THE END IT WILL BE 11:27:04AM BETTER FOR THEIR BUSINESSES. 11:27:05AM THE ISSUE ALSO IS CIVIL LIABILITY FOR THE CITY. 11:27:10AM THAT'S A HUGE ISSUE BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO 11:27:14AM HAVE BEEN DAMAGED, NOT THEORETICALLY DAMAGED BUT ACTUALLY 11:27:19AM DAMAGED, 768.28 COULD BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE CITY. 11:27:25AM MULTIPLE CLAIMS. 11:27:26AM EVEN IF YOU HAVE SOMEONE'S CAR WHO HAS BEEN DAMAGED, THAT 11:27:31AM PERSON COULD BRING A CLAIM AGAINST THE CITY. 11:27:33AM SO WHILE YOU MAY HAVE THEORETICAL DAMAGES OF OTHER PROPERTY 11:27:37AM OWNERS OR OTHER BUSINESS OWNERS, THESE PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY 11:27:41AM DAMAGED AND ACTUALLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO BRING CIVIL CLAIMS 11:27:46AM AGAINST THE CITY. 11:27:47AM IN ADDITION TO THE BILL TO FIX THE PROJECT, WHATEVER IT IS, 11:27:51AM 64 MILLION, YOU MAY HAVE THEIR CLAIMS STACKED ON TOP OF IT, 11:27:55AM PLUS THE CITY ATTORNEY FEES. 11:27:58AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 11:27:59AM >> THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME. 11:28:00AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: RUMELA DOSS. 11:28:03AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:28:03AM AMY BROWN. 11:28:08AM AND THEN JANE SIMON. 11:28:14AM >> HI. 11:28:15AM GOOD

11:28:51AM ABOVE ALL OF THAT. 11:28:52AM PLEASE, DON'T MAKE US WADE THROUGH FLOODWATERS WHEN WE COME 11:28:57AM HOME FROM SCHOOL WITH OUR YOUNG CHILDREN BECAUSE OF AN 11:29:00AM AFTERNOON RAINSTORM.

POINT WITH OUR CHILDREN BEING SAFE. 11:29:10AM THAT'S ALL I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT. 11:29:12AM THANK YOU. 11:29:14AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, MA'AM. 11:29:15AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH.11:29:15AM [ APPLAUSE

11:30:18AM MANY OF THE PEOPLE HERE, THEY ALL FLOODED, BUT I'M STILL IN 11:30:21AM SUPPORT OF TRYING TO GET THIS DONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. 11:30:23AM WE PAY HIGH PROPERTY TAXES AND MOVE TO ZONE X FOR A REASON.11:30:30AM SHOULDN'T BE HELD UP INDEFINITELY BY THE FEEDBACK ABOUT 11:30:33AM TREES IN FRONT OF HOUSES OR A COUPLE DOZEN BUSINESSES IN 11:30:37AM SOHO. 11:30:37AM IT'S NOT JUST THE PEOPLE THAT FLOODED THAT WANT A RESOLUTION 11:30:40AM NOW. 11:30:41AM I REPRESENT MANY PEOPLE THAT DID NOT FLOOD THAT STILL 11:30:44AM SUPPORT QUICK ACTION BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO 11:30:48AM PROTECT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE NEXT EVENT. 11:30:51AM LASTLY, I WORK FROM HOME. 11:30:53AM TOO MANY FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES HAVE BEEN HIT. 11:30:55AM MANY OF THE FOLKS THAT WORK FROM HOME WE REPRESENT SMALL

ESTATES 22 YEARS. 11:39:12AM I LOVE MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND I LOVE MY NEIGHBORS. 11:39:15AM I'M NOT GOING TO GO -- NOTES THAT TOOK ME HOURS TO TYPE. 11:39:19AM I'M JUST GOING TO TALK. 11:39:20AM HURTS MY HEART TO HEAR MY NEIGHBORS SAY THEY ARE NOT BEING11:39:23AM REPRESENTED BY OUR BOARD. 11:39:25AM IN APRIL, WE HAD OUR ANNUAL MEETING, AND THEY VOTED OUT THE 11:39:29AM OLD BOARD BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE AND PUT US IN. 11:39:31AM I REALLY WISH I HADN'T RUN BECAUSE THIS IS NOT FUN. 11:39:34AM WE'RE TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO HELP. 11:39:37AM I THINK YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND. 11:39:39AM WE ARE ALL FOR STARTING THIS PROJECT YESTERDAY. 11:39:42AM WE JUST ASK FOR TWO THINGS. 11:39:44AM WE THINK THE DESIGN-BUILD TOGETHER IS DANGEROUS FOR US AS A 11:39:48AM NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:39:48AM WE WOULD LIKE YOUR PROTECTION. 11:39:49AM IF WE CAN HAVE A SEPARATE DESIGN AND BUILD, WE COULD HAVE 11:39:52AM COMMUNITY INPUT THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS. 11:39:54AM AND IF WE DIDN'T LIKE SOMETHING, WE COULD COME BACK AND ASK 11:39:57AM FOR HELP. 11:39:58AM CAN'T DO THAT IF YOU PUT THE PROJECT TOGETHER. 11:40:00AM WE'RE DOING THAT FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE WE REALLY WANT 11:40:03AM TO PROTECT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:40:05AM WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 11:40:06AM IT IS A BEAUTIFUL, HISTORIC, TREE-LINED NEIGHBORHOOD, 11:40:09AM HUNDRED YEARS OLD. 11:40:10AM WHEN THEY PRESENTED THIS TO US, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT 11:40:14AM UNTIL MARCH. 11:40:15AM THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON TEN YEARS. 11:40:17AM WE KNEW NOTHING.11:40:18AM SO IN MARCH, I START DIGGING AND LOOKING, THERE ARE THREE 11:40:21AM PLANNED ROUTES. 11:40:22AM TWO OF THEM GO THROUGH PARKLAND. 11:40:24AM ONE OF THEM IS THE MOST OBVIOUS, WHICH GOES HALFWAY UP 11:40:27AM HOWARD PAST THE THAI RESTAURANT, COMES BACK TO BRISTOL AND 11:40:32AM BACK UP LAKEVIEW. 11:40:33AM IT MAKES NO SENSE. 11:40:35AM FIVE TURNS, HALFWAY UP HOWARD. 11:40:37AM THEY PRESENTED THIS TO THE BUSINESSES AND SAID, HEY, WE'RE 11:40:40AM GOING TO BURY YOUR ELECTRICAL WIRES. 11:40:43AM WE'RE GOING TO WIDEN THE SIDEWALKS. 11:40:45AM WE'LL DO NEW LANDSCAPING. 11:40:46AM WE'LL SLOW THE TRAFFIC. 11:40:48AM YOU KNOW WHAT? 11:40:48AM THEY ARE ONLY DOING HALF OF HOWARD. 11:40:51AM WHY NOT GO ALL THE WAY TO SWANN AND DOWN TO PARKLAND 11:40:54AM ESTATES? 11:40:54AM THAT'S THE ISSUE. 11:40:56AM THIS IS A REGIONAL COMMUNITY-BASED PROBLEM. 11:40:58AM AND THEY ARE TRYING TO SOLVE IT BY DESTROYING THE 11:41:01AM NEIGHBORHOODS. 11:41:01AM MAKES NO SENSE TO ASK US TO DO THAT. 11:41:05AM I'M HERE TODAY, THOUGH, TO SAY EVEN IF THEY STARTED TODAY, I 11:41:08AM KNOW THIS IS A THREE-YEAR PROJECT AT LEAST, JUST BY THEIR 11:41:12AM OWN NUMBERS.11:41:12AM SO I LOOKED INTO THIS. 11:41:13AM I'VE BEEN READING. 11:41:14AM I'M NOT AN ENGINEER. 11:41:15AM ALL OF THE WATER FOR PARKLAND ESTATES IS BEING CREATED FROM 11:41:18AM THE NORTH OF US. 11:41:19AM PALMA CEIA PINES. 11:41:21AM PEOPLE THAT FLOODED, ALL THAT IS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL JUST DID 11:41:25AM AN EXPANSION, ALL THESE TOWN HOUSES THAT WERE BUILT ON 11:41:30AM SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES, TWO AND FOUR TOWN HOUSES, NOTHING BUT 11:41:33AM CONCRETE UP THERE. 11:41:34AM AND THE ROADS ARE ALL DESIGNED, AUDUBON AND ARMENIA, ALL 11:41:38AM COME RIGHT INTO THE MOUTH OF PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:41:40AM THAT'S WHAT THE ENGINEERS DID THAT THEY ARE ASKING US TO 11:41:43AM TRUST. 11:41:44AM IN THEIR OWN REPORT, YOU CAN READ THAT IT SAYS THE STREETS 11:41:48AM ARE MILLED WRONG. 11:41:49AM THEY GOT PAVED AND REPAVED AND THEY NEVER WERE MILLED 11:41:52AM CORRECTLY. 11:41:53AM SO THEIR OWN SEWER DRAINS UP IN PALMA CEIA DON'T WORK. 11:41:58AM SO THAT WATER IS ON THE SURFACE FLOWING RIGHT TO THE MOUTH 11:42:02AM OF A KNOWN FLOODED AREA. 11:42:05AM THAT'S WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR NEIGHBORS. 11:42:06AM SO MUCH OF THIS COULD BE CHANGED TODAY. THAT SHOULD HAVE 11:42:09AM BEEN CHANGED BEFORE. 11:42:11AM IT'S IN THE REPORT.11:42:12AM THAT COULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY. 11:42:13AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:42:14AM >> THANK YOU, GUYS. 11:42:14AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:42:18AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: DOROTHY BLAND IS THE NEXT SPEAKER 11:42:21AM FOLLOWED BY CARROLL ANN BENNETT. 11:42:24AM AND THEN POYNOR. 11:42:26AM YES, MA'AM. 11:42:28AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 11:42:29AM >> IS THERE A MICROPHONE? 11:42:31AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: YES, IT'S HIDDEN IN THE HARDWARE THERE. 11:42:34AM IT WILL AMPLIFY AND PICK EVERYTHING UP. 11:42:37AM >> DEEDEE BLAND. 11:42:38AM MY HUSBAND AND I LIVE IN THE 33629 ZIP CODE AND OWN THREE 11:42:43AM LONG-TERM RENTAL RESIDENCES ALSO IN 33629. 11:42:49AM QUITE FRANKLY, THE PECC BOARD'S POLITICS THAT ARE TRYING TO 11:42:54AM PROTECT THE AMBIENCE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ARE VERY TROUBLING 11:42:58AM TO ME. 11:42:58AM AS A PROPERTY OWNER IN THE CITY OF TAMPA, I HAVE SERIOUS 11:43:02AM CONCERNS ABOUT THE CHRONIC FLOODING THAT PLAGUES SMALL 11:43:05AM BUSINESSES AND NEIGHBORS IN PARKLAND ESTATES, PALMA CEIA 11:43:08AM PINES AND OTHERS. 11:43:09AM IT IS MERELY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THAT FLOODING PERMEATES 11:43:14AM MORE TAMPA NEIGHBORHOODS IF THE PROPOSED FLOOD RELIEF 11:43:19AM PROJECT DOES NOT PROCEED.11:43:20AM THE FLOODING IN PARKLAND ESTATES ON SEPTEMBER 4 AND AGAIN 11:43:24AM DURING HURRICANE MILTON, WAS PREVENTABLE. 11:43:29AM BECAUSE HIGH-PROFILE BUSINESS OWNERS ON SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE 11:43:33AM AND SOME NON-FLOODED RESIDENTS IN PARKLAND ESTATES SUCCEEDED 11:43:36AM IN BLOCKING CITY COUNCIL FROM DOING THEIR JOBS BY IMPROVING 11:43:42AM THE STORMWATER DRAINAGE, NUMEROUS FAMILIES HAVE LOST SO 11:43:45AM MUCH. 11:43:46AM THIS FLOODING SHOULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTABLE. 11:43:49AM PLEASE DON'T CONTINUE TO BE COMPLICIT IN FUTURE PREVENTABLE 11:43:53AM FLOOD DAMAGE AND DISTRESS. 11:43:56AM PROCEED WITH THE PROPOSED FLOODWATER RELIEF PROJECT. 11:43:59AM THIS FLOODING PROBLEM WILL NOT JUST GO AWAY ON ITS OWN. 11:44:03AM WE'RE COUNTING ON YOU TO TAKE ACTION AND PROTECT THE CITY OF 11:44:06AM TAMPA RESIDENTS. 11:44:08AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MA'AM. 11:44:09AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:44:10AM CARROLL ANN BENNETT, POYNOR, MENTESNOT. 11:44:16AM >> HI. 11:44:17AM CARROLL ANN BENNETT. 11:44:19AM MY HOUSE IS AT 17 FEET. 11:44:21AM IF WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING THAT THEIR HOUSES ARE AT 21 FEET, 11:44:25AM I WOULD LIKE TO COMPARE MY EXPERIENCE TO THEIRS. 11:44:28AM MY STREET WAS A RIVER, BUT IT WAS A VERY FAST-MOVING RIVER 11:44:33AM THAT DRAINED VERY EFFECTIVELY. 11:44:35AM WE HAD NO INKLING OF ANY FLOODING BECAUSE OF THAT.11:44:42AM IF THEY ARE AT 21 FEET AND EXPERIENCED THE FLOODING, THERE 11:44:44AM IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE STORMWATER SYSTEM. 11:44:47AM BECAUSE THE STORMWATER SYSTEM IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AT 17 FEET 11:44:49AM WORKED WONDERFULLY. 11:44:50AM SO THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG. 11:44:52AM THE PROBLEM IS YOU'VE GOT TO ACTUALLY FIX IT. 11:44:55AM YOU CAN'T THINK YOU'RE FIXING IT. 11:44:57AM YOU'VE GOT TO ACTUALLY FIX IT. 11:44:59AM $250 MILLION WAS SPENT -- WAS BUDGETED FOR STORMWATER. 11:45:04AM THERE WAS A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ON OUR BILLS WITH THE 11:45:06AM BONDING. 11:45:07AM PROBABLY 500 MILLION. 11:45:08AM A GOOD BIT OF THAT IS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR MANHATTAN AND 11:45:12AM THEY DID THAT WORK. 11:45:13AM YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I DROVE DOWN MANHATTAN AFTER THE 11:45:16AM STORMS, PEOPLE'S MATTRESSES AND BELONGINGS WERE AT THE 11:45:20AM STREET BECAUSE IT DIDN'T WORK. 11:45:21AM DID IT HELP? 11:45:22AM YES HELPED. 11:45:23AM REDUCE SOME OF THE LIGHT FLOODING, FLOODING WE EXPERIENCE 11:45:25AM ALL THE TIME? 11:45:26AM YES. 11:45:26AM DID IT HELP WITH HELENE AND MILTON? 11:45:29AM NO, IT DID NOT. 11:45:30AM THOSE PEOPLE'S HOUSES FLOODED ANYWAY AFTER THE PROJECT11:45:34AM SUPPOSED TO CORRECT IT WAS DONE. 11:45:36AM MOST IMPORTANT THING EVERYONE KNOWS AND AGREES IT'S A 11:45:38AM PROBLEM BUT YOU'VE GOT TO ACTUALLY FIX IT. 11:45:41AM THIS PROJECT IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING FOR ANYBODY IN 11:45:43AM PALMA CEIA PINES. 11:45:45AM RIGHT HERE, THE CITY'S STORMWATER ENGINEER SAYS OUR PIPES 11:45:50AM FOR THIS PROJECT WILL NOT EXTEND FURTHER NORTH THAN PARKLAND 11:45:54AM ESTATES. 11:45:54AM THEY'VE GOT DOCUMENTS SAYING THIS PROJECT IS STILL GOING TO 11:45:57AM HAVE FLOODING, WHICH IS WHAT HAPPENED IN MANHATTAN. 11:46:00AM WE STILL HAVE FLOODING. 11:46:01AM THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO IS APPROVE THIS PROJECT AS IS AND 11:46:05AM THEN FIVE YEARS FROM NOW WHEN IT IS FINISHED AND TWO YEARS 11:46:08AM AFTER THAT WHEN THEY REALIZE IT'S NOT FIXED, THEN TWO MORE 11:46:11AM YEARS OF FIGURING OUT HOW TO FIX IT AND FIVE OR SIX MORE 11:46:14AM YEARS OF DOING THE OTHER FIX. 11:46:16AM IT WILL DELAY THE SOLUTION. 11:46:18AM A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE WHOSE HOUSES FLOODED WILL STILL FLOOD 11:46:22AM AFTER THIS PROJECT BECAUSE THIS PROJECT ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH. 11:46:24AM IF YOU HAVE TO SPEND MORE MONEY, SPEND MORE MONEY. 11:46:26AM BUT FIX THE PROBLEM. 11:46:28AM FIX IT FOR PALMA CEIA PINES. 11:46:30AM FIX IT SO THEIR HOUSES DON'T FLOOD ANYMORE. 11:46:32AM I THINK THIS IS A BAD PLAN, NOT GOOD ENOUGH. 11:46:36AM NO BID DESIGN-BUILD BAD IDEA.<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center sm:justify-center sm:flex-row sm:space-x-1 insert" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;"><ins

THE PROBLEM. 11:46:43AM QUICK COMMENT ON THE TREES. 11:46:46AM I WANT TO POINT OUT THAT EVEN IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT THE 11:46:49AM AESTHETICS OF THE TREE, THINK OF THE MONEY. 11:46:52AM TREES SAVE MONEY. 11:46:53AM MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR IN STORMWATER AND FLOODING 11:46:56AM DAMAGE IS PREVENTED BY THE TREES. 11:46:58AM MATURE LIVE OAK CAPTURES OVER 35 THOUSAND GALLONS OF WATER 11:47:04AM WHEN WE HAVE AN EVENT LIKE THIS. 11:47:06AM SO ALL WATER THEY HAD IN THEIR HOUSE, IF THOSE TREES HAD NOT 11:47:09AM BEEN THERE, THEY WOULD HAVE HAD MORE WATER. 11:47:12AM BUT YOU DON'T SEE THAT. 11:47:13AM YOU DON'T HAVE THIS GIANT RAIN GAUGE THAT SAYS, OH, LOOK AT 11:47:17AM ALL THE WATER THE TREES PREVENTED FROM GOING IN THEIR HOUSE. 11:47:20AM ELIMINATING THE TREES IS A BAD IDEA. 11:47:23AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:47:24AM POYNOR, MENTESNOT, STEVE MICHELINI. 11:47:28AM GOOD MORNING. 11:47:30AM PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME. 11:47:36AM >> STEPHANIE POYNOR. 11:47:38AM I NEED TO TAKE AND ZOOM OUT. 11:47:43AM WHAT I HAVE GIVEN YOU IS A COPY OF THE CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE 11:47:45AM PLAN. 11:47:46AM PAGE 248.11:47:47AM IT SAYS THAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LIMITING PUBLIC 11:47:51AM EXPENDITURES FOR INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN THE COASTAL HIGH 11:47:54AM HAZARD UNLESS IT CAN DEMONSTRATE. 11:47:57AM AND THEN I HAVE A LITTLE BOX AROUND IT. 11:48:00AM ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE HARDENING OF OUR INFRASTRUCTURE. 11:48:02AM BUT TWO MONTHS AGO, THIS COUNCIL APPROVED $26 MILLION TO BE 11:48:06AM SPENT ON A RIVERWALK. 11:48:07AM IT VIOLATES THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. 11:48:10AM IT'S IN VIOLATION OF THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THIS 11:48:14AM LANGUAGE IS IN THE NEXT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. 11:48:16AM THAT $26 MILLION SHOULD BE SPENT ON THESE PROJECTS. 11:48:19AM I GOT BAD NEWS FOR THESE FOLKS HERE. 11:48:22AM THEY ARE NOT GOING TO LIKE THIS, BUT THEY ARE DOING A 11:48:24AM PROJECT IN THE SOUTH PENINSULA. 11:48:30AM THIS IS OUR PROJECT IN THE SOUTH PENINSULA. 11:48:34AM THE MacDILL 48. 11:48:36AM LOOK, IT WAS APPROVED THE SAME YEAR AS THESE FOLKS' PROJECT. 11:48:43AM I GOT AN INVITATION TO THE RIBBON CUTTING FOR NOVEMBER 12. 11:48:47AM BUT THEIR PROJECT LOOKS LIKE THIS. 11:48:50AM I KEEP ASKING YOU ALL TO LOOK AT THIS LITTLE THING. 11:48:54AM BUT I CAN'T FIGURE OUT, I'M LIKE, WOW, THIS IS A NEW 11:48:57AM PROJECT. 11:48:57AM THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HEARD ABOUT IT. 11:48:59AM IT'S ONLY BEING TALKED ABOUT NOW. 11:49:03AM IT'S KIND OF -- UP.11:49:05AM I ALSO WANT TO REMIND YOU, WHEN WE LOOKED AT THE STORMWATER 11:49:08AM ASSESSMENTS AND I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU, I WILL SAY THIS 11:49:12AM AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN, IF I'M WRONG, LET THE BUDGET 11:49:17AM PEOPLE, LET REVENUE AND FINANCE COME TALK TO ME ABOUT IT, 11:49:20AM BUT THIS WAS THE BIG MONEY THAT WAS TAKEN OUT OF OUR 11:49:24AM STORMWATER ASSESSMENTS AND 78% OF IT WAS SPENT ON PERSONNEL. 11:49:29AM THEY WEREN'T LAYING IT IN FRONT OF THESE PEOPLE'S HOUSES 11:49:33AM KEEPING WATER OUT. 11:49:35AM [ENCODER DISCONNECT] 11:50:01AM IT DOES, BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD TO DO IT. 11:50:03AM WE HAVE PROBLEMS, HUGE PROBLEMS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE CITY 11:50:07AM THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. 11:50:08AM ACCORDING TO -- ON THE 17th OF OCTOBER, THERE WERE 6306 11:50:17AM HOUSES THAT WERE DESTROYED AT LEAST TO SOME DEGREE. 11:50:20AM 6300. 11:50:21AM THAT IS A LOT OF FRICKIN' PEOPLE. 11:50:27AM I'M AMAZED WE DON'T HAVE PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE CITY 11:50:30AM COMING IN HERE EVERY SINGLE WEEK. 11:50:32AM I'M AMAZED THAT THOSE FOLKS AREN'T HERE. 11:50:34AM YOU KNOW WHY? 11:50:34AM BECAUSE MOST OF THEM ARE AT WORK AND THESE PEOPLE HAD TO GO 11:50:38AM TO WORK TODAY, TOO. 11:50:40AM YOU'VE BEEN OUT AND TALKED TO THEM. 11:50:41AM YOU'VE MET WITH THEM. 11:50:43AM DO THE RIGHT THING.11:50:43AM IT'S TIME TO RESCIND THAT CONTRACT AND DO THE RIGHT THING 11:50:47AM WITH THAT MONEY AND FIX PEOPLE'S HOUSES. 11:50:51AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: MENTESNOT, STEVE MICHELINI, VICTOR 11:50:55AM DEMAIO. 11:50:55AM GOOD MORNING, SIR. 11:50:58AM >> MENTESNOT, MEANS ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. 11:51:02AM TAMPA, FLORIDA. 11:51:07AM WANT TO SAY UHURU, MEANS FREEDOM IN SWAHILI. 11:51:11AM WE AS AFRICAN PEOPLE SHOULD ALWAYS BE THINKING ABOUT OUR 11:51:14AM FREEDOM. 11:51:14AM I WANT TO HAVE A MOMENT OF SILENCE FOR THE PEOPLE IN 11:51:18AM PALESTINE. 11:51:22AM [MOMENT OF SILENCE] 11:51:28AM BEYOND A MOMENT OF SILENCE FOR THE PEOPLE OF PALESTINE, I 11:51:32AM WANT TO HAVE A VICTORY STATEMENT FOR KAMALA HARRIS. 11:51:39AM SHE WON THE ELECTION FAIR AND SQUARE BECAUSE ANYBODY WHO HAD 11:51:44AM 107 DAYS TO PREPARE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP AND STILL RECEIVE 11:51:49AM MILLIONS OF VOTES, VERY COURAGEOUS AND VERY COMMENDABLE. 11:51:56AM ONE OF THE THINGS I ALWAYS TEACH MY KIDS, ALL OF MY KIDS, 11:52:01AM FROM THE OLDEST TO THE YOUNGEST, DON'T DRINK, DON'T SMOKE, 11:52:08AM DON'T GAMBLE, DON'T BE DISHONEST, DON'T LIE, AND ALWAYS TRY 11:52:16AM TO BE HONORABLE. 11:52:20AM I'M GOING TO HAVE TO GO OFF COURSE. 11:52:24AM I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A BET RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW. 11:52:31AM ALTHOUGH TEACH MY KIDS, DON'T GAMBLE, NO MATTER WHAT, THAT11:52:34AM IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM INSIDE THE AFRICAN COMMUNITY, 11:52:37AM GAMBLING. 11:52:37AM NOT POLICE VIOLENCE, NOT UNEMPLOYMENT, NOT POVERTY, NOT 11:52:43AM MISEDUCATION OR DE-EDUCATION. 11:52:46AM GAMBLING, NOT BELIEVING IN GOD AND ALL THE STUPIDNESS THAT 11:52:49AM GOES WITH IT, GAMBLING IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM INSIDE THE 11:52:53AM AFRICAN COMMUNITY AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE A LOT OF RESTRAINT TO 11:52:58AM STAY AWAY FROM IT. 11:52:59AM YOU CAN WIN THIS WIN THAT, DO THIS, DO THAT, GET RICH QUICK, 11:53:03AM ALL KIND OF GET-RICH-QUICK SCHEMES. 11:53:06AM BUT I WANT TO MAKE A BET RIGHT NOW. 11:53:13AM GO OUTSIDE OF MY WAY OF THINKING AND MY BELIEFS AND MAKE A 11:53:16AM BET RIGHT NOW. 11:53:17AM A BET IF IT FLOODS AT RAYMOND JAMES STADIUM, A BET THEY'LL 11:53:23AM HAVE IT FIXED BY TOMORROW. 11:53:24AM [ LAUGHTER ] 11:53:25AM IF IT FLOOD AT RAYMOND JAMES STADIUM TONIGHT, THAT FLOODING 11:53:30AM PROBLEM WOULD BE FIXED TOMORROW. 11:53:32AM AND IF YOU PULL OLD VIDEOS, YOU WOULD SEE FOR 40 YEARS I'VE 11:53:39AM BEEN COMPLAINING, FLOODING ON BAYSHORE, FLOODING IN SOUTH 11:53:43AM TAMPA. 11:53:44AM FLOODING AT HENDERSON AND DALE MABRY, EXCESSIVE FLOODING. 11:53:48AM NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT IT. 11:53:50AM THE CITY COUNCIL HAVE TO BE MORE SENSITIVE TO THE PEOPLE'S 11:53:55AM NEEDS.11:53:56AM AND THAT'S THROUGHOUT THE CITY, AND THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT. 11:53:59AM THAT'S WHY THE PEOPLE ELECT YOU TO DO THESE THINGS. 11:54:02AM LIKE THE PEOPLE SAY, THE RIVERWALK AND OTHER THINGS, ALL 11:54:04AM THESE BLUE LIGHTS PUTTING ON THE RIVER, IT'S TIME FOR THAT 11:54:08AM TO STOP. 11:54:09AM THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:54:09AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 11:54:13AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:54:13AM GOOD MORNING, MR. STEVE MICHELINI, MR. VICTOR DEMAIO, 11:54:20AM MS. SUZANNE FERNANDEZ. 11:54:23AM >> GOOD MORNING, COUNCIL. 11:54:25AM STEVE MICHELINI. 11:54:26AM I SENT YOU AN E-MAIL LAST NIGHT. 11:54:31AM THE ISSUE HERE, WE'RE PLAYING THE BLAME GAME. 11:54:35AM THE PEOPLE IN PARKLAND ARE BLAMING THE BUSINESSES FOR 11:54:38AM STOPPING THIS PROJECT OR BECAUSE THEY CAUSED THIS PROJECT. 11:54:42AM EVERY NEW PROJECT, EVERY SINGLE NEW PROJECT HAS TO MEET 11:54:45AM STORMWATER CODES. 11:54:46AM WHEN A PROJECT COMES TO YOU, WE'VE ALWAYS NOTED YOU CANNOT 11:54:51AM WAIVE STORMWATER REQUIREMENTS. 11:54:52AM THERE'S NO PROVISION FOR THAT. 11:54:53AM NEW PROJECTS HAVE TO COME IN, APPROXIMATELY 16-INCH DRAINAGE 11:55:01AM PIPES. 11:55:01AM THEY CONNECT TO THE CITY SYSTEM, WHICH IS A HUNDRED YEARS 11:55:04AM OLD, AND THEY ARE 8-INCH PIPES.11:55:07AM SO YOU HAVE A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF WATER TRYING TO GET THROUGH 11:55:12AM FROM 16 INCHES TO 8 INCHES. 11:55:14AM ONE OF THE OTHER ISSUES, PEOPLE CONTINUE TO PUT TRASH AND 11:55:21AM DEBRIS IN FRONT OF STORMWATER INLETS. 11:55:23AM I SEND OUT PROBABLY A DOZEN E-MAILS OVER THE LAST WEEK OR 11:55:28AM SO, DON'T PUT TRASH OUT THERE. 11:55:31AM DON'T PUT YOUR TREES AND LIMBS OUT THERE NEXT TO THE CURB 11:55:34AM AND NEXT TO YOUR STORMWATER. 11:55:35AM THEY KEEP DOING IT. 11:55:37AM SOUTH HOWARD IS VERY NARROW. 11:55:40AM THERE IS NO ROOM. 11:55:42AM WE ASKED THE CITY TO CONSIDER ONE LANE SHUT DOWN, THEY SAID 11:55:46AM NO. 11:55:46AM THEY CAN'T DO IT. 11:55:47AM YOU HAVE TO SHUT DOWN THE ENTIRE STREET. 11:55:50AM THAT DOESN'T AFFECT JUST THAT BLOCK. 11:55:52AM IT AFFECTS THE BLOCK AHEAD OF IT. 11:55:54AM IT AFFECTS THE BLOCKS TWO BLOCKS BEHIND IT. 11:55:58AM YOU CAN'T GET PURVEYORS THROUGH. 11:56:00AM YOU CAN'T GET SOLID WASTE THROUGH. 11:56:02AM YOU CAN'T GET AMBULANCES THROUGH, FIRE TRUCKS, NOTHING, AND 11:56:06AM THERE IS NO WALK AROUND BECAUSE THERE ARE NO PARALLEL 11:56:09AM STREETS THAT SERVICE THE AREA. 11:56:10AM YOU CAN SEE BASICALLY THE SOHO OVERLAY DISTRICT REQUIRES THE 11:56:17AM BUILDINGS TO BE PUSHED UP TO THE RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE.11:56:20AM THERE ISN'T ANY ROOM. 11:56:22AM SO IT'S NOT JUST A MINOR INCONVENIENCE. 11:56:25AM IT IS A DEATH KNELL TO THE BUSINESSES. 11:56:30AM THEY CANNOT SURVIVE. 11:56:31AM DURING THE STORM WHEN THEY WERE SHUT OFF FOR ELECTRICITY, 11:56:34AM SHUT OFF FOR SIX OR SEVEN DAYS, MOST OF THE BUSINESSES LOST 11:56:38AM 80% OF THE INCOME. 11:56:40AM WE TALKED TO TECO, AND I KNOW TECO IS INVOLVED IN THIS AS 11:56:43AM WELL. 11:56:43AM THEY'LL RUN THE LINES UNDERGROUND ON THE STREET SIDE. 11:56:48AM THE CONNECTION FEES ARE $300,000 PER BUSINESS OR MORE. 11:56:53AM WHEN YOU HAVE A SYSTEM AND A STORMWATER SYSTEM THAT RELIES 11:57:00AM ON GRAVITY SYSTEM TRYING TO GET IT TO THE BAY, WHAT HAPPENS 11:57:04AM WITH THE SURGE? 11:57:04AM YOUR PIPES FILL UP. 11:57:06AM THEY CAN'T GO OUT TO THE BAY. 11:57:07AM THEY CAN'T GO ANYWHERE. 11:57:09AM THE MAINTENANCE, YOU HAVE STORMWATER INLETS THAT ARE UPHILL 11:57:12AM FROM BASINS. 11:57:14AM THAT'S TRUE IN PARKLAND ESTATES. 11:57:15AM THEY ARE UPHILL FROM WHERE THE WATER IS. 11:57:18AM THE SAME THING IS TRUE IN NEW SUBURB BEAUTIFUL. 11:57:24AM SERIOUS ATTENTION HAS TO BE GIVEN TO ALL OF THIS. 11:57:27AM MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS, RECONSTRUCTION, ADDING INLETS THAT 11:57:31AM ACTUALLY WORK WHERE THE WATER GOES.11:57:33AM THANK YOU. 11:57:33AM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU, SIR. 11:57:36AM [ APPLAUSE ] 11:57:36AM VICTOR DEMAIO, SUZANNE FERNANDEZ AND JARROD DYER. 11:57:46AM >> GOOD MORNING, COUNCIL. 11:57:47AM VICTOR DEMAIO. 11:57:48AM MY OFFICE IS 1205 NORTH FRANKLIN STREET, SUITE 103. 11:57:54AM I'M HERE REPRESENTING BERN'S STEAK HOUSE, EPICUREAN HOTEL 11:58:01AM AND HAVEN. 11:58:02AM WE HAVE HUNDREDS OF REASONS TO OPPOSE THIS PROJECT. 11:58:04AM THOSE ARE THE HUNDREDS OF EMPLOYEES THAT BERN'S EMPLOYS, 11:58:07AM EPICUREAN EMPLOYS AND HAVEN AS WELL. 11:58:12AM I THOUGHT IT WAS THREE YEARS. 11:58:14AM LAST REPORT, IT IS A FOUR-YEAR PROJECT. 11:58:17AM THIS WOULD DESTROY OUR BUSINESS. 11:58:19AM BERN'S HAS BEEN AROUND ABOUT 70 YEARS. 11:58:21AM PEOPLE COME HERE TO TAMPA FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO COME TO 11:58:25AM BERN'S ESTABLISHING HOUSE TO HAVE DINNER. 11:58:27AM THEY STAY AT THE EPICUREAN, HAVE DINNER AT BERN'S. 11:58:31AM ONE OF THE REASONS WE'RE SO FAMOUS, WE HAVE THE LARGEST 11:58:34AM PRIVATELY HELD WINE COLLECTION IN THE WORLD. 11:58:36AM THIS IS NOT FLORIDA, U.S., THE ENTIRE WORLD. 11:58:38AM NO ONE HAS A LARGER WINE COLLECTION. 11:58:40AM WE HAVE OVER A MILLION BOTTLES OF WINE. 11:58:43AM A LOT OF THAT WINE IS STORED IN A BUILDING YOU SEE WHEN YOU11:58:46AM COME INTO BERN'S THAT'S INCHES AWAY FROM THIS PROPOSED 11:58:49AM PROJECT. 11:58:49AM ONE OF THE THINGS YOU DON'T REALIZE IS WHEN WE BUILT THE 11:58:54AM EPICUREAN ACROSS THE STREET, WITH HE HAD TO PUMP WATER FOR 11:58:57AM MONTHS. 11:58:57AM WHEN YOU START DIGGING THAT HOLE TO PUT THE 30-FOOT CULVERT, 11:59:03AM THIS ISN'T A LITTLE PIPE. 11:59:05AM IT IS A PIPE WE LITERALLY COULD WALK THROUGH AND STAND UP. 11:59:07AM IT'S GOING TO FILL IN WITH WATER. 11:59:10AM WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE BUILDING INCHES AWAY THAT IS 11:59:13AM 120 YEARS OLD IF IT FALLS INTO THAT HOLE. 11:59:16AM DOWN THE STREET, BAYSHORE ROYALE HOTEL. 11:59:20AM THEIR RESTAURANT HAS BEEN CONDEMNED. 11:59:22AM EVERYONE IN THE BUILDING IS FREAKING OUT, WITHOUT THE HOLE 11:59:26AM BEING DUG, IT'S IN SERIOUS TROUBLE RIGHT NOW. 11:59:29AM THAT'S JUST A BLOCK FROM BAYSHORE. 11:59:31AM LIKE I SAID BY THE COUNCIL PREVIOUSLY, IF YOU BUILD THIS, 11:59:35AM SPEND $70 MILLION ON THIS NO BID CONTRACT, AND THAT WATER IS 11:59:39AM HEADING DOWN TO BAYSHORE AND HIGH TIDE, WHERE IS THE WATER 11:59:42AM GOING TO GO. 11:59:42AM IT'S GOING TO COME BACK UP. 11:59:44AM THERE'S GOT TO BE A LITTLE MORE THOUGHT ON THIS. 11:59:46AM ONE OF THE LADIES HERE THAT SPOKE, SHE GAVE AN ALTERNATIVE, 11:59:51AM WHY NOT GO DOWN MacDILL. 11:59:53AM HOWARD, AS YOU KNOW, IS TWO WAY ROAD.<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center

EXPRESSWAY, CAN'T GET PEOPLE IN AND OUT 12:00:03PM OF THERE. 12:00:04PM CONTRACTS WITH LARGEST AIRLINES IN THE WORLD, EVERY VISITING 12:00:07PM HOCKEY TEAM THAT COMES TO TAMPA STAYS AT THE EPICUREAN 12:00:11PM HOTEL. 12:00:12PM WE WOULD LOSE ALL THAT BUSINESS. 12:00:14PM WEDDINGS BOOKED UP NOW FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS. 12:00:16PM WHAT WILL WE TELL THOSE PEOPLE? 12:00:18PM I'M BEGGING YOU FOR AN ALTERNATIVE. 12:00:20PM WE CAN PUT A MAN ON THE ROOM, YOU CAN SET A PIPE DOWN 12:00:24PM MacDILL AS SOON AS YOU CAN, HOWARD. 12:00:26PM I WOULD LOVE FOR THE COUNCIL DEMAND THAT THE ENGINEERS COME 12:00:30PM OUT WITH ALTERNATIVE PLANS AND STUDY THIS A LITTLE BIT 12:00:33PM HARDER. 12:00:33PM I TALKED TO TWO MAYORS, BY THE WAY, THAT TOLD ME THEY HAD 12:00:36PM THIS PROJECT ON THEIR DESKS YEARS AGO AND THEY TURNED IT 12:00:40PM DOWN BECAUSE THEY DID NOT WANT TO DESTROY ALL THE BUSINESSES 12:00:44PM ON HOWARD. 12:00:44PM HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR THE WATER TO DRAIN, THEY TOLD HER 12:00:47PM 15, 20 MINUTES. 12:00:49PM YOU HAVE TO MAKE THAT DECISION. 12:00:50PM WE FEEL SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE FROM PARKLAND ESTATES AND -- 12:00:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 12:00:55PM >> WE'RE SITTING HERE WILLING TO HELP AND LISTEN TO WHAT 12:00:58PM EVERYBODY HAS TO SAY.12:00:59PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: SUZANNE FERNANDEZ, JARROD DYER, 12:01:01PM ANNELIESE MEIER. 12:01:04PM >> GOOD MORNING. 12:01:05PM I'M SUZANNE FERNANDEZ. 12:01:06PM I'VE OWNED PROPERTY IN THE PALMA CEIA PINES AREA FOR OVER 20 12:01:12PM YEARS. 12:01:13PM I PROVIDE HOUSING FOR OVER 30 FAMILIES. 12:01:18PM I THINK I'M A GREAT LANDLORD, PERSONALLY. 12:01:20PM BUT OUT OF THIS, BECAUSE OF THE RECENT FLOODING OF MILTON, 12:01:24PM I'VE GOT 14 RESIDENTS THAT ARE HOMELESS. 12:01:27PM THIS IS A FLOOD ZONE X, NON-EVACUATION ZONE. 12:01:32PM AND EVERYTHING THEY HAVE IS DESTROYED. 12:01:34PM I SPENT OVER SIX FIGURES TO DATE AND MAY BE HALFWAY THROUGH 12:01:39PM PUTTING THEIR RESIDENCE BACK TOGETHER FOR THEM. 12:01:42PM THESE PEOPLE HAD NO FLOOD INSURANCE. 12:01:44PM I HAD NO FLOOD INSURANCE. 12:01:46PM SO WHAT SCARES THE BEJESUS OUT OF ME IS YOU GUYS KEEP 12:01:51PM KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD. 12:01:53PM YOU ARE NOT STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE AND MAKING A REALLY 12:01:55PM HARD DECISION ABOUT WHAT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. 12:01:58PM UNTIL YOU'VE BEEN FLOODED AND PUT UP WITH THE MESS OR 12:02:01PM LISTENED TO THE SAD STORIES OF PEOPLE THAT ARE HOMELESS AND 12:02:03PM HAVE LOST EVERYTHING, YOU GOT TO GET YOUR PRIORITIES 12:02:07PM STRAIGHT ON THIS. 12:02:08PM AND THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING YOU TO DO.12:02:11PM BECAUSE IN THESE 20 YEARS, I'VE NEVER HAD FLOODING LIKE 12:02:15PM THIS. 12:02:15PM NINE YEARS AGO IN 2015, THERE WAS A FLOODING EVENT AT HABANA 12:02:19PM AND HORATIO. 12:02:21PM YOU ALL HAD NINE YEARS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AND NOTHING 12:02:25PM HAS TAKEN PLACE. 12:02:27PM THIS SUMMER, YOU WERE NOTIFIED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE THE 12:02:29PM WATER WAS NOW AFTER A SMALL RAINSTORM, ACCUMULATING IN THE 12:02:34PM YARDS AND COMING UP THE BUILDING, UP ON THE SIDE OF THE 12:02:37PM BUILDING. 12:02:37PM AND IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL SOMETHING HIT THE 12:02:42PM TIPPING POINT AND THE WATER WAS GOING TO BE INSIDE. 12:02:44PM IT SHOULDN'T COME AS A SURPRISE TO YOU. 12:02:46PM BUT WHAT I AM DISAPPOINTED IN IS YOU HAVE NOT BROUGHT IT 12:02:49PM UPON YOURSELVES TO MAKE THE REAL HARD DECISION TO PROCEED 12:02:53PM WITH TAKING CARE OF THE FLOODING PROBLEMS IN OUR 12:02:55PM NEIGHBORHOOD. 12:02:57PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 12:02:59PM [ APPLAUSE ] 12:02:59PM JARROD DYER. 12:03:02PM ANNELIESE MEIER. 12:03:03PM JACKSON. 12:03:07PM GOOD MORNING, SIR. 12:03:09PM >> JARROD DYER. 12:03:10PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.12:03:12PM I REPRESENT ONE OF THE BUSINESSES ON SOUTH HOWARD. 12:03:19PM OF COURSE, WE HAVE SYMPATHY FOR THE SITUATION FACED BY THE 12:03:22PM RESIDENTS OF THE FLOODED AREAS. 12:03:24PM ALL THEIR STORIES ARE JUST HORRIBLE. 12:03:26PM I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE. 12:03:29PM DISRUPTION IS AN INSUFFICIENT WORD TO DESCRIBE WHAT THEY 12:03:32PM HAVE EXPERIENCED. 12:03:33PM AND ALSO WHAT THE BUSINESSES WOULD FACE IF THE SOUTH HOWARD 12:03:36PM FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT MOVES FORWARD IN ITS CURRENT STATE. 12:03:40PM LISTENING TO THE COMMENTS TO DATE, IT SEEMS LIKE THE 12:03:43PM RESIDENTS DON'T WANT THE CULVERTS TO GO THROUGH THEIR 12:03:45PM NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE OF DISRUPTION, BUT THEY ARE FINE WITH 12:03:48PM PUSHING THAT ONTO ANOTHER AREA OF THE CITY WHICH WOULD NOT 12:03:52PM ONLY AFFECT THE BUSINESSES ALONG HOWARD AVENUE CORRIDOR BUT 12:03:55PM ALL OF THE RESIDENTS AND ALL OF THE STREETS THAT FEED INTO 12:03:57PM THAT. 12:03:58PM HAVING TO DEAL WITH THE INCREASED TRAFFIC FROM VENDORS 12:04:04PM TRYING TO GET TO THE RESTAURANT, YOU CAN'T TAKE A SEMITRUCK 12:04:07PM DOWN THOSE STREETS. 12:04:09PM AND WE'VE HEARD SUGGESTIONS FROM THE CITY THAT WE SHOULD ASK 12:04:11PM OUR VENDORS TO USE SMALLER TRUCKS. 12:04:14PM THERE WAS ALSO A SUGGESTION FROM MOBILITY THAT THEY WOULD 12:04:16PM GET GOLF CARTS TO FERRY CUSTOMERS TO THE BUSINESSES AND TO 12:04:23PM HELP DELIVERIES. 12:04:24PM THAT'S JUST COMPLETELY IMPLAUSIBLE AND IMPOSSIBLE.12:04:28PM THE ISSUE FOR US BUSINESSES ISN'T THAT WE'RE BEING 12:04:30PM INCONVENIENCED OR THAT WE'RE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE HOMES 12:04:32PM AND BUSINESSES IN THE FLOODED AREAS, AS ONE OF THE TV 12:04:38PM STORIES MENTIONED EARLIER, THAT SOMEONE PLAYED, THE PROJECT 12:04:42PM WOULD REDUCE FLOODING ON SOUTH HOWARD, BUT WE DON'T HAVE 12:04:46PM FLOODING ON SOUTH HOWARD. 12:04:47PM WHAT HAPPENS IS WE BEAR THE BRUNT OF ALL OF THE WORK, ALL OF 12:04:50PM THE DISRUPTION. 12:04:52PM WE HAVEN'T SEEN TALKED ABOUT THE STAGING OF THE EQUIPMENT TO 12:04:54PM DO THIS KIND OF PROJECT. 12:04:55PM WHERE DO YOU PUT IT HAS MACHINES? 12:04:57PM DON'T DRIVE THEM AWAY AND PUT THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE. 12:04:59PM THEY HAVE TO KEEP THEM IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS. 12:05:01PM WE BEAR THE BRUNT OF THE HARDSHIP BUT NO UP SIDE. 12:05:04PM THE SOUTH HOWARD BUSINESSES, OF COURSE, ARE SYMPATHETIC TO 12:05:08PM WHAT HAPPENS TO THE PARKLAND ESTATES AND PALMA CEIA PINES. 12:05:12PM BUT WE'LL SUPPORT ANY EFFORTS BUT WE'RE NOT GOING TO SUPPORT 12:05:17PM A PROJECT THAT WOULD LIKELY PUT US OUT OF BUSINESS. 12:05:19PM THAT IS THE REALITY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. 12:05:22PM BEEN THERE NEARLY 40 YEARS. 12:05:23PM GOT THROUGH THE 2008 RECESSION. 12:05:26PM GOT THROUGH COVID, BUT COULDN'T SURVIVE A FOUR-YEAR 12:05:28PM DISRUPTION OF TRAFFIC ON HOWARD AVENUE. 12:05:30PM CUSTOMERS SEE IT AS DON'T WANT TO GO ON THAT WHOLE SIDE OF 12:05:36PM TOWN AND WOULD AFFECT EVERYONE THERE.12:05:39PM OH, THE FOUR BLOCK SECTION OF WHERE MY RESTAURANT IS 12:05:43PM ACCESSIBLE NOW. 12:05:44PM THEY GO, YOU KNOW WHAT, HOWARD AVENUE IS A MESS, I DON'T 12:05:46PM EVEN WANT TO DEAL WITH IT. 12:05:48PM SOMEBODY WHO COMES EVERY WEEK, THEY MAY KNOW WHAT'S GOING 12:05:51PM ON. 12:05:52PM PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD MAY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. 12:05:54PM PEOPLE WHO LIVE OUT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD DON'T KNOW. 12:05:58PM COME DOWN ONCE A MONTH, TWICE A MONTH, EVERY TIME, THEY HAVE 12:06:01PM TO TAKE A DIFFERENT DETOUR, THEY'LL STOP COMING. 12:06:04PM THAT MEANS WE'LL LOSE OUR EMPLOYEES BECAUSE THEY CAN'T LIVE 12:06:07PM WITHOUT US MAKING MONEY. 12:06:09PM HYPOTHETICALLY WE CAN REOPEN, WHERE ARE THOSE EMPLOYEES 12:06:13PM GONE? 12:06:13PM WE LOST ALL OF THEM. 12:06:14PM THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. 12:06:15PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: ANNELIESE MEIER. 12:06:17PM VANESHA JACKSON. 12:06:20PM DAVID ADAMS WHO WAS HERE

OF SLEEPLESS NIGHTS RECENTLY. 12:07:38PM AND WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE. 12:07:40PM I'M HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT THE SOUTH HOWARD FLOODING PROJECT. 12:07:45PM CITY COUNCIL ASKED STAFF TO EXPLORE DIFFERENT ROUTES AND NOT 12:07:48PM TEAR APART A HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD. 12:07:50PM APPARENTLY THE CITY STAFF IGNORED YOU WITH THE REPORT COMING 12:07:54PM LATER TODAY. 12:07:55PM THIS PROJECT IS DESIGN-BUILD. 12:07:58PM THIS IS BASICALLY AN OPEN CHECKBOOK BY THE CITY TO THE 12:08:02PM CONTRACTOR. 12:08:03PM LOOK NO FURTHER THAN TO AGENDA ITEMS 29 AND 30 TO SEE I AM 12:08:08PM CORRECT. 12:08:08PM THAT'S TODAY'S AGENDA. 12:08:09PM THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN WRITTEN TO CONFUSE THE PUBLIC, CONFUSE 12:08:14PM YOU. 12:08:14PM HAS NOT BEEN TRANSPARENT. 12:08:16PM AND MOST OF MY NEIGHBORS DO

SERVICE ASSESSMENT 12:08:59PM REPORT FROM FISCAL YEAR '24. 12:09:02PM THAT IS A VERY IMPORTANT REPORT IN YOUR PACKET. 12:09:04PM THERE IS NO LINE ITEM FOR ANY BOX CULVERT. 12:09:07PM THIS PROJECT IS FULL OF BOX CULVERTS. 12:09:11PM THE CITY WEBSITE CLEARLY STATES NUMEROUS CULVERTS ARE OVER 12:09:15PM 75 YEARS OLD AND NEED MAINTENANCE, YET THE BUDGET THIS YEAR 12:09:19PM HAS NOTHING IN IT FOR MAINTENANCE. 12:09:22PM LOOK AT THE PUMP LINE ITEM. 12:09:24PM IT STATES PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROVIDED TO ALL 13 12:09:28PM STORMWATER PUMP STATIONS. 12:09:31PM THAT'S SAYING THEY DID THIS.

WHICH IS PALMA CEIA PINES. 12:10:03PM THAT ISSUE IS NOT BEING ADDRESSED WITH THIS PROJECT. 12:10:06PM A SOLUTION THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT IS THE CITY BALLPARK 12:10:09PM BETWEEN THE OLD WINN DIXIE AND THE CROSSTOWN. 12:10:12PM THIS IS A VERY LARGE AREA THAT COULD BE USED FOR WATER 12:10:15PM STORAGE AND THE PARK BUILT BACK ON TOP. 12:10:17PM THIS LINE COULD GO DOWN SWANN BOULEVARD. 12:10:20PM THE EXPRESSWAY AUTHORITY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING WITH THEIR 12:10:24PM WATER RUNOFF WHEN THEY EXPAND TO THREE LANES. 12:10:26PM THERE'S PLENTY OF EASEMENT ALONG THE CROSSTOWN FOR THIS 12:10:28PM PROJECT TO GO ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE BAY. 12:10:31PM SOME OF THE CURRENT STORMWATER DRAINS ALREADY GO TO THE 12:10:33PM CROSSTOWN. 12:10:35PM I DON'T HAVE THE STORMWATER MAP, BUT YOU CLEARLY CAN SEE

ADDRESSES THE WATER SHED 02:47:10PM THAT IS ENCLOSED BY PALMA CEIA VINES, PARKWOOD ESTATES, 02:47:19PM BAYSHORE GARDEN -- YEAH, BAYSHORE GARDEN AND ONE OTHER 02:47:23PM NEIGHBORHOOD. 02:47:24PM THIS

FIRST 02:47:51PM WE HAVE KNOWN THAT THIS AREA OR THIS WATER HEAD IN AN 02:47:55PM INSUFFICIENT DRAINAGE SYSTEM AND A OUTFALL SYSTEM FOR AT 02:47:59PM LEAST MORE THAN TWO DECADES. 02:48:01PM WE KNOW THIS AREA HAS INSUFFICIENT DRAINAGE. 02:48:04PM THE CHALLENGE HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN RESOURCES WHICH WAS 02:48:11PM ADDRESSED IN 2016 BY THE IMPROVEMENT ASSESSMENT. 02:48:14PM THANK YOU, CHAIR, FOR

RECEIVED CAREFUL STUDY CONSIDERATION. 02:49:40PM THIS ENTIRE ASSESSMENT AND REVIEW. 02:49:43PM IN JUNE OF 2022, THIS PROJECT FIRST AND IN -- IN THE 02:49:51PM QUARTERLY REPORT THAT WE SUBMIT TO COUNCIL THAT HIGHLIGHTS 02:49:58PM ALL OF OUR MAJOR PROJECTS. 02:50:00PM AND THAT LISTED AS ONE OF THE MAJOR PROJECTS. 02:50:04PM IT HIGHLIGHTS SMALLER PROJECTS, SECTION TWO OF THAT 02:50:07PM QUARTERLY REPORT AND I KNOW THERE IS DISCUSSION ABOUT IT 02:50:10PM EARLIER TODAY BREAKS DOWN HOW MUCH WE HAVE COLLECT IN 02:50:17PM SERVICE AND IMPROVEMENT. 02:50:19PM THERE HAS BEEN SOME CONFUSION AND QUESTION OF WHAT IS THE 02:50:23PM DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SERVICE AND THE IMPROVEMENT 02:50:25PM ASSESSMENT. 02:50:26PM I WILL REITERATE, THE IMPROVEMENT ASSESSMENT PAYS FOR LARGE 02:50:31PM CAPITAL PROJECTS LIKE THE ONE RIGHT NOW. 02:50:33PM THE SERVICE ASSESSMENT IS TWO THINGS. 02:50:37PM ONE IS THE STORMWATER OPERATIONS DIVISION. 02:50:41PM THE TEAM THAT GOES THERE BEFORE THE STORM, AFTER THE STORM, 02:50:45PM AND DOES SOME PORTION OF MAINTENANCE. 02:50:47PM OTHER PORTION OF MAITENANCE IS DONE BY CONTRACTORS. 02:50:50PM ALL OF OUR PRODUCTION WORK IS DOCUMENTED ON 02:50:58PM

LEVERAGING 02:51:28PM SOUTH HOWARD AVENUE THIS IS HOW THE SOUTH HOWARD FLOODING 02:51:33PM RELIEF PROJECT CAME ABOUT. 02:51:34PM REASON -- THE MAIN THREE REASONS FOR THE SOUTH HOWARD ROUTE. 02:51:38PM ONE IS, THERE IS A BOX PUT IN 40 OR 50 YEARS BACK UNDER 02:51:44PM THE CSX TRACKS. 02:51:46PM THIS IS CRITICAL, BECAUSE CSX COORDINATION AS MANY OF YOU 02:51:50PM KNOW CAN DELAY ANY PROJECT BY SEVERAL YEARS. 02:51:53PM IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE. 02:51:55PM AND THAT IS A FACTOR. 02:51:57PM THE OTHER PART OF THIS -- BECAUSE THIS IS A GRAVITY SYSTEM, 02:52:01PM THE OUTFALL GOES OUT TO BAYSHORE. 02:52:04PM THERE IS AN EXISTING BOX AT HOWARD AND BAYSHORE. 02:52:08PM SO LEVERAGING THESE TWO ASSETS AND THEN LEVERAGING A LINEAR 02:52:13PM PATH WHICH IS A SECOND PIECE OF IT BECAUSE IT IS A GRAVITY 02:52:16PM SYSTEM AND YOU DON'T WANT A LOT OF 90-DEGREE TURNS. 02:52:20PM A LINEAR PATH TO CONVEY WATER DOWN TO THE OUTFALL WAS THE 02:52:26PM OTHER REASONS THIS WAS SELECTED. 02:52:31PM THE THIRD REASON HAS TO DO WITH COST AND VIABILITY. 02:52:34PM AND THERE ARE MANY FACTORS ARE RELATED TO VIABILITY, BUT 02:52:37PM WHEN IT COMES TO COST WITH STORMWATER PROJECTS, EN BOX 02:52:41PM CULVERT PROJECTS. 02:52:42PM AND I WILL TOUCH UP ON WHY PONDS ARE IN THE FEASIBLE AND 02:52:46PM OTHER OPTIONS THAT WERE DISCUSSED TODAY IS SIMPLY THE 02:52:50PM DISTANCE OF THE PROJECT. 02:52:51PM THE LENGTH OF THE PROJECT DRIVES THE COST BECAUSE OF THE 02:52:55PM SIZE OF THE BOX. 02:52:56PM SO MacDILL WAS MENTIONED EARLIER TODAY. 02:53:01PM A PROJECT ALONG MacDILL TO IMPACT THIS BASIN BOOK 50% LONGER 02:53:07PM IN LENGTH. 02:53:07PM PLUS IT CON FACILITATES THE DESIGN BECAUSE THE BOX MAY HAVE 02:53:12PM TO BE LARGER. 02:53:13PM WE DON'T KNOW THAT YET, BECAUSE THAT IS A FUNCTION OF 02:53:16PM DESIGN. 02:53:16PM BECAUSE IT COLLECTS OTHER DRAINAGE BASINS ALONG THE WAY. 02:53:19PM THE SAME WITH SWANN GOING OUT TO BAYSHORE, ABOUT 30% LARGER. 02:53:26PM SO SOUTH HOWARD OR ADJACENT ROUTES WERE THE MOST VIABLE. 02:53:31PM SO THAT IS ABOUT THE ROUTE AS I MENTIONED THE PROJECT WAS 02:53:38PM DEFINED IN THE QUARTERLY REPORT OF 2022 AND IN 2023, WE 02:53:45PM SELECTED THE DESIGN-BUILD TEAM FOR THIS PROBABLY. 02:53:50PM THIS WAS DONE USING THE CCNA METHOD. 02:53:55PM HOW WE SELECT ALL DESIGN-BUILD CONTRACTS. 02:53:58PM IT IS THE PROPER METHOD FOR LARGE PROJECTS. 02:54:01PM THIS IS A PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD PROJECT. 02:54:04PM WE SELECTED KIMMINS FOR THE PROJECT WITH ATKINS REALIS AND 02:54:11PM SLEW OF SUB CONSULTANTS. 02:54:15PM SIM KIMMINS HAS A STELLAR TRACK RECORD. 02:54:20PM THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF FINISHING THE MacDILL 48 LOWER 02:54:25PM PENINSULA PROJECT. 02:54:25PM THIS PROJECT WON THE ASC, AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEER 02:54:30PM AWARDS AT THIS YEAR'S ANNUAL MEETING FOR INFRASTRUCTURE. 02:54:35PM SO IT IS AN AWARD-WINNING PROJECT. 02:54:38PM THIS PROJECT, ALONG WITH OTHER PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE DONE 02:54:42PM SINCE 2016 AND THE IMPROVEMENT ASSESSMENT. 02:54:45PM SO I AM TALKING OF CYPRESS STREET. 02:54:47PM SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS. 02:54:50PM UPPER PENINSULA BY DALE MABRY AND HENDERSON. 02:54:55PM ALL OF THESE PROJECTS THROUGH THE TWO STORMS THAT WE JUST 02:54:58PM HAD THROUGH THE RECORD WETTEST SEPTEMBER TO DATE PERFORMED 02:55:08PM VERY WELL. 02:55:08PM DRAINAGE SYSTEM IN THESE PROJECT AREAS WORK WELL. 02:55:12PM WE KNOW THESE PROJECTS WORK WELL. 02:55:14PM NO REASON TO BELIEVE THIS PROJECT WILL NOT DELIVER THE 02:55:17PM OUTCOME THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR AND WHATEVER THOSE OUTCOMES, 02:55:21PM THE OUTCOMES ULTIMATELY THROUGH THE DESIGN PROCESS ARE TO 02:55:27PM BUILD THE LARGEST POSSIBLE STORMWATER SYSTEM TO MITIGATE 02:55:33PM FLOODING WITHIN THIS BASIN. 02:55:34PM WE HAVE MODELLED THE BOX FOR 100-YEAR EVENT AND ALL THE 02:55:40PM OTHER SUB SYSTEMS WILL BE MODELLED FOR THE LARGEST CAPACITY. 02:55:47PM BASED ON OUR MODELLING SO FAR, EVENTS LIKE WE HAVE SEEN 02:55:51PM RECENTLY WILL COST STREET FLOODING AND WOULD HAVE MITIGATED 02:55:56PM A MAJORITY. 02:55:59PM AND THIS IS PACED ON MODELING AFTER THE STORM KNOWING THE 02:56:03PM ORIGINAL MODELING WITH THE -- OUR EXPERIENCE WITH OTHER 02:56:08PM STORMWATER PROJECTS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO THIS. 02:56:10PM I WANT TO HIGHLIGHT A LITTLE BIT ABOUT -- ABOUT OUTREACH AND 02:56:20PM SOME OF THE RESOURCES WHERE YOU CAN FIND INFORMATION ON THIS 02:56:23PM PROJECT. 02:56:23PM SO WE HAVE ALREADY DONE A LOT OF PRELIMINARY OUTREACH ON 02:56:33PM THIS PROJECT. 02:56:34PM THERE WAS CONCERN OF US NOT HAVING DOING ENOUGH OUTREACH AND 02:56:38PM BEFORE A RFQ WAS RELEASED, WE MET WITH KEY MEMBERS, 02:56:42PM NEIGHBORHOOD MEMBERS. 02:56:42PM AND MET WITH THE BUSINESS ALLIANCE. 02:56:50PM THIS PROJECTS LIKE THESE WILL BE IMPACTFUL AND PROJECTS LIKE 02:56:58PM THESE GENERATIONAL PROJECTS. 02:57:00PM AND SET FORTH INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE NEXT 50 TO 70 2023-2024 02:57:09PM QUESTION GOT 100-YEAR-OLD INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE CITY TODAY. 02:57:12PM AND ENGINEER SPEAK, THE WARRANTY IS 50 YEARS I GUESS BUT 02:57:18PM THIS INFRASTRUCTURE WILL LAST A LONG TIME CONSIDERS SEA 02:57:22PM LEVEL RISE. 02:57:23PM WE WILL HAVE TO CONSIDER SEA LEVEL RISE AND WHEN WE GET INTO 02:57:31PM THE DESIGN PHASE OF THIS CONTRACT, IT WILL CONSIDER THE 02:57:34PM LATEST AVAILABLE DATA IN LIGHT OF OUR RESILIENCE CHALLENGES 02:57:47PM BUT THE FUNDING FOR THIS PROJECT IS VARIED. 02:57:49PM $11 MILLION COMMITTED BY THEA AND COMMITTING $11 MILLION AS 02:58:00PM THEY DO THE SELMON EXPRESSWAY PROJECT, THEY ARE REQUIRED TO 02:58:04PM SOME MITIGATION, SO THERE IS SOME -- SOME VALUE FOR BOTH 02:58:09PM ENTITY IN THIS PARTNERSHIP. 02:58:10PM SO WE ARE BENEFITTING FROM THAT. 02:58:12PM AS IS THEA I WOULD SAY. 02:58:17PM FDEP THROUGH THEIR RESILIENT FLORIDA PROGRAM AWARDED THE 02:58:22PM CITY A $10 MILLION GRANT THAT COUNCIL GRACIOUSLY APPROVED 02:58:26PM EARLIER THIS YEAR. 02:58:28PM THIS WAS A COMPETITIVE GRANT AND COME WITH VERY CLEAR 02:58:33PM GUIDELINES AND A REVIEW PROCESS. 02:58:35PM THIS MONEY COULD HAVE GONE ANYWHERE AND SAW THE VALUE IN 02:58:39PM INVESTING IN THIS PROJECT FOR THE ANTICIPATED OUTCOMES. 02:58:43PM I SON-IN-LAW SAY THIS IS AN ADDITIONAL SET OF EYES THAT 02:58:47PM VALIDATE THIS APPROACH. 02:58:48PM AND THIS PROJECT. 02:58:50PM I WOULD LIKE TO NOW HIGHLIGHT A FEW ITEMS THAT THE COMMUNITY 02:58:58PM HAD MENTIONED RELATIVE TO JUST VARIOUS CONCERNS. 02:59:01PM SO I THINK THE ISSUE OF SURGE WAS BROUGHT UP. 02:59:07PM THAT THEY PUT IN A BOX CULVERT WITH AN OUTFALL. 02:59:10PM THEN THAT BECOMES SUSCEPTIBLE TO SURGE AS THE WATER SURGES 02:59:15PM UP THE BOX. 02:59:15PM WHICH IS A GOOD POINT. 02:59:18PM WHICH IS A VALID POINT WHAT I WILL ADD TO THAT ABSENT A BOX, 02:59:23PM THE WATER IS STILL COMING IN. 02:59:25PM BUT NOW YOU HAVE A BOX TO STORE SOME OF THAT WATER AND SOME 02:59:28PM OF IT MAY COME OUT WHERE YOU HAVE INLETS. 02:59:31PM THAT HAPPENS. 02:59:32PM WE SEE THAT IN VERY LOW-LYING AREAS RIGHT NOW. 02:59:35PM WITH DAYLIGHT FLOODING EVENT DURING KING TIDES THIS WILL 02:59:49PM CONTINUE WHICH IS WHY WE NEED INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE THIS. 02:59:52PM THE GULF WATER HAVE SET A RECORD YEAR UPON YEAR, THE WARMER 03:00:04PM THE GULF WATERS, THE STRONGER THE STORMS WE WILL HAVE. 03:00:09PM THIS DOES NOT CHANGE. 03:00:10PM WE NEED INFRASTRUCTURE IN A HURRY. 03:00:12PM GOOD NEWS IS WE HAVE THE FUND. 03:00:19PM USUALLY OUR CHALLENGE IS WE DON'T HAVE THE FUND AND DON'T 03:00:22PM HAVE A DEFINED PROJECT. 03:00:23PM THE GOOD NEWS IS WE HAVE A CONTRACTOR THAT THE COMMUNITY 03:00:25PM TRUSTS THAT HAS A GREAT TRACK RECORD OF DELIVERING PROJECTS. 03:00:30PM AND WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MOVE THIS PROJECT AS FAST AS 03:00:36PM POSSIBLE. 03:00:36PM ON THAT NOTE, I KNOW OTHER OPTIONS ARE REPRESENTED 03:00:42PM POTENTIALLY GETTING THIS WORK DONE EVEN SOONER. 03:00:45PM WE HAVE REVIEWED SOME OF THOSE OPTIONS PUT FORTH, AND WE DO 03:00:50PM NOT FEEL THAT THEY ARE FEASIBLE GIVEN THE POLICY FRAMEWORK 03:00:55PM THAT WE HAVE TO FOLLOW WITHIN THE CITY, BE IT EMERGENCY 03:00:59PM POWERS, BE IT THE REQUIREMENT FOR CONTRACTING. 03:01:02PM WE HAVE HEARD ABOUT DESIGN-BUILD VERSUS DESIGN BID BILL 03:01:08PM BUILD. 03:01:08PM LET ME TOUCH ON THAT A LITTLE BIT. 03:01:10PM THIS -- THIS METHOD -- PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD OFFERS EVERY 03:01:16PM OPPORTUNITY THAT DESIGN BID BILL OFFERS. 03:01:19PM MEANING OF THAT WE ARE GOING TO BEGIN WITH THE DESIGN TASK. 03:01:24PM THATCH DESIGN TASK IS GOING TO INCLUDE AN UNPRECEDENTED 03:01:32PM AMOUNT OF RESOURCES FOR OUR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. 03:01:35PM AT EVERY LEVEL, CONCEPT, 30%, 60%, 90% DESIGN. 03:01:41PM PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT DESIGN TO GET THE INPUTS. 03:01:45PM A LOT OF THE QUESTIONS WE HEARD AND CONCERNS FROM NEIGHBORS 03:01:48PM ABOUT THIS PROJECT ARE RELATIVE TO THE DESIGN. 03:01:52PM THEY ARE NOT RELATIVE TO PLANNING. 03:01:54PM AND THAT IS SOME OF THE MESSAGING WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET 03:01:57PM OUT THERE. 03:01:57PM SOME GETTING THAT DESIGN STARTED WILL ACTUALLY START 03:02:03PM ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS. 03:02:04PM ONCE DESIGN IS COMPLETE AS IT GOES WITH ALL THE DESIGN-BUILD 03:02:08PM PROJECTS, COUNCIL WILL HAVE A SECOND STAB OF IMPROVING 03:02:14PM THE GMP, OR THE CONSTRUCTION COSTS FOR THIS. 03:02:16PM SO IN THAT SENSE, IT IS SIMILAR TO DESIGN BID BUILD. 03:02:20PM THE KEY DIFFERENCES IS WITH THE PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD ARE 03:02:24PM THE FOLLOWING, ONE IS A ACCOUNTABILITY. 03:02:27PM WE HAVE ONE PARTY THAT IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE ENTIRE 03:02:31PM PROCESS. 03:02:31PM THAT REALLY HELPS. 03:02:33PM THE SECOND IS SCHEDULE. 03:02:35PM PROGRESSIVE DESIGN BUILDS ARE ACTUALLY FASTER. 03:02:39PM AND THE REASON THEY ARE FASTER IS AS SUBSTANTIAL DESIGN IS 03:02:44PM BEING COMPLETED, THE BUILDER THAT IS TYPICALLY THE CLIENT 03:02:49PM KNOWS WHAT EQUIPMENT TO ORDER. 03:02:50PM LEAD TIMES ARE SHORTER. 03:02:52PM STARTS WORKING ON MEANS AND METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION. 03:02:56PM AND THAT ALLOWS FOR THOSE SCHEDULES TO BE COMPRESSED A 03:02:59PM LITTLE BIT AS WELL. 03:03:00PM AND THE THIRD IS COST FOR LARGE PROJECTS. 03:03:04PM PROGRESSIVE DESIGN-BUILD IS TYPICALLY THE PREFERRED METHOD 03:03:08PM BECAUSE WE CAN BE A LOWER COST. 03:03:11PM SO THERE WILL BE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. 03:03:14PM PUBLIC WILL GET A CHANCE TO WEIGH IN BEFORE THIS GOES TO 03:03:17PM CONSTRUCTION, BUT THE BUILDER WILL HAVE MUCH BETTER 03:03:24PM INFORMATION IN ADVANCE TO STAGE THE CONSTRUCTION, TO 03:03:26PM MINIMIZE IMPACTS AND THERE WILL BE IMPACTS, AND TO PLAN THE 03:03:30PM PROBABLY -- THE OVERALL PROJECT BETTER. 03:03:34PM I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT ANOTHER POINT OR ADVANTAGE ABOUT 03:03:37PM THIS DURING THAT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. 03:03:39PM THE COMMUNITY HALLS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO 03:03:45PM THE DESIGN BUILDER. 03:03:47PM WHAT PARAMETERS THEY WANT FOR CONSTRUCTION. 03:03:51PM DO THEY WANT TO WORK THROUGH WEEKENDS. 03:03:53PM DO WE NEED TO WORK THROUGH NIGHTS SO THAT IMPACT SCHEDULE. 03:03:58PM THESE FLEXIBILITIES ARE AVAILABLE IN THE CONTRACT. 03:04:00PM WHAT WE HAVE PROVIDED IN TERMS OF ANTICIPATED SCHEDULE, WHAT 03:04:04PM WE HAVE PROVIDED IN TERMS OF ANTICIPATED SCOPE IS TO 03:04:08PM MINIMIZE THE IMPACT OF DISRUPTION TO BUSINESSES ALONG HOWARD 03:04:13PM AVENUE. 03:04:13PM AND WE HAVE SHARED THE BEST AVAILABLE INFORMATION THAT WE 03:04:17PM HAVE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE CONTRACTOR WITH US WHEN WE MET WITH 03:04:22PM THE BUSINESS ALLIANCE OR THE COMMUNITY AS WELL. 03:04:23PM FINALLY, I WANT TO CLOSE WITH OUR RECOMMENDATION. 03:04:31PM SO AS THE MEMO STATES IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS -- WELL, BEFORE 03:04:40PM I GET TO THAT, I WOULD LIKE TO JUST SHARE OUR STAFF ARE 03:04:46PM DRIVEN BY PUBLIC SERVICE. 03:04:47PM WE HAVE A REALLY, REALLY GOOD TEAM AT THE STORMWATER 03:04:54PM ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT. 03:04:54PM WE HAVE 1 ENGINEERS AND TECHNICIANS. 03:04:58PM THIS IS THE LARGER TEAM THAN MOST LARGE CONSULTING TERMS IN 03:05:03PM OUR STORMWATER DEPARTMENT. 03:05:05PM WE HAVE A DESIGN ENGINEER THAT WAS A CONSULTANT FOR DECADES 03:05:10PM BEFORE DECIDING HE WANTED TO GO INTO PUBLIC SERVICE. 03:05:13PM HE IS OUR CHIEF DESIGN ENGINEER NOW. 03:05:15PM WE HAVE A STORMWATER MAJOR THAT WORKED FOR S.W.F.W.M.D. 03:05:22PM HER SPECIALTY IS WATER SHED MANAGEMENT. 03:05:26PM SHE IS LEADING OUR WATER SHED. 03:05:29PM OUR STAFF COMES FROM A PLACE OF PUBLIC SERVICE TO DELIVER 03:05:32PM THE BEST POSSIBLE INFRASTRUCTURE. 03:05:33PM AND STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS THAT -- IS TO ACHIEVE THE 03:05:38PM FASTEST AND MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO BRING FLOODING RELIEF TO 03:05:44PM PARKLAND HE IS STATES, PALMA CEIA PIPES AND ASSOCIATED 03:05:47PM DRAINAGE BASIN, WE ASK THAT ON NOVEMBER 21, WE WILL BRING TO 03:05:52PM YOU IT A DESIGN TASK THAT INCLUDES PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT FOR THE 03:05:56PM SOUTH HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT. 03:05:59PM THAT IS THE WAY TO GET THE PROJECT STARTED. 03:06:01PM WE ASK THAT COUNCIL APPROVE THAT TASK AND PUT US AND KIMMINS 03:06:07PM TO WORK TOWARD THIS PROJECT. 03:06:08PM AT THIS POINT, I WILL TAKE THIS INTO CONSIDERATION. 03:06:11PM >> COUNCILMAN CLENDENIN HAS HIS MICROPHONE ON FIRST. 03:06:17PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: CAN YOU PUT THE PROBABLY MAP THAT YOU HAVE 03:06:20PM BACK ON? 03:06:30PM >>VIK BHIDE: THE ROUTE MAP? 03:06:33PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: YES PLEASE. 03:06:34PM I WANT TO SAY THAT WHAT HAPPENED IS, CORRECT ME IF I'M 03:06:37PM WRONG, THERE ISN'T -- THERE HAVEN'T BEEN AN ROUTE DECIDED UPON 03:06:41PM YET. 03:06:41PM >>VIK BHIDE: A FINAL ROUTE HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED. 03:06:45PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SOMEHOW IN THE PUBLIC INFORMATION, THERE 03:06:49PM WAS AN ASSUMPTION THAT A FINAL ROUTE HAD BEEN DETERMINED AND 03:06:52PM THAT SET OFF A FIRESTORM THAT -- THAT THIS WAS ALREADY SET 03:06:56PM IN STONE AND SO PEOPLE STARTED GETTING, YOU KNOW, UPSET, 03:06:59PM BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT IT WAS ALREADY DECIDED. 03:07:03PM SO WE ARE NOT THERE? 03:07:05PM >>VIK BHIDE: CORRECT. 03:07:06PM LET ME CLARIFY THAT. 03:07:07PM THIS IS THE SOUTH HOWARD FLOOD RELIEF PROJECT. 03:07:10PM IT IS ON THE BASIS THAT SOUTH HOWARD IS THE MOST VIABLE AND 03:07:17PM FEASIBLE ROUTE. 03:07:18PM HOW THIS PROJECT CONNECTS TO SOUTH HOWARD IS STILL OPEN. 03:07:24PM THAT IS PART OF THE DESIGN PROCESS. 03:07:26PM AND THAT DESIGN PROCESS WILL FIRST CONSIDER HOW DO WE MOVE 03:07:31PM WATER BEST, WHAT ARE THE IMPACTS BOTH TO TREES, TO 03:07:35PM BUSINESSES, TO RESIDENCES, ALL OF THAT. 03:07:37PM THAT IS A FUNCTION AND FLEXIBILITY AVAILABLE TO THE 03:07:40PM DESIGNERS THROUGH THE PROCESS. 03:07:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: AND INITIALLY AS THIS WAS CONCEIVED 03:07:46PM BETWEEN THEA AND, YOU KNOW, EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE 03:07:50PM OUTFALL. 03:07:51PM THIS MOSTLY WAS -- HAD TO DO WITH SOUTH OF SWANN AND -- BUT 03:07:56PM NOW WE ARE EXPANDING THE CONCEPT BECAUSE OF CONCERNS BETWEEN 03:08:02PM KENNEDY BOULEVARD AND SWANN AND FRESH WATER. 03:08:05PM THIS IS AN EXPANDED SCOPE? 03:08:11PM >>VIK BHIDE: LET ME CLARIFY THAT. 03:08:12PM NOT AN EXPANDED SCOPE BUT DOESN'T PRECLUDE ANYTHING NORTH OF 03:08:17PM SWANN. 03:08:17PM THIS IS PART OF ONE WATER SHED. 03:08:19PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I AM GOING TO GET TO THAT. 03:08:21PM KEEP IN YOUR HAND BECAUSE I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT. 03:08:26PM >>VIK BHIDE: SURE. 03:08:27PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: MY UNDERSTANDING BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS 03:08:29PM PART OF THE MISCONCEPTION AS WELL. 03:08:31PM BECAUSE WE TALKED ABOUT -- WE LIVE IN FLORIDA WITH A 03:08:34PM CAPITAL F, THAT PEOPLE THINK OF FLOODING DURING THESE STORMS 03:08:37PM AS STORM SURGE TYPE OF FLOODING AND FLOOD ZONES AND WHATNOT. 03:08:41PM THIS AREA AND OTHER AREAS OF THE CITY THAT EXPERIENCE THIS 03:08:44PM FLOODING ARE BASINS. 03:08:45PM AND IT IS ME UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS WATER SHED BASIN 03:08:48PM NATURALLY POOLS WATER. 03:08:51PM THE ONLY WAY TO GET WATER OUT OF THIS BASIN IS BY MAN-MADE 03:08:56PM WAYS OF GETTING IT OUT. 03:08:57PM WITHOUT MAN-MADE INTERVENTION BASICALLY A BOWL. 03:09:02PM IF I LOOK AT THE TOP GRAPHICAL MAP, IT IS A BOWL. 03:09:10PM >>VIK BHIDE: IT IS A SYSTEM THAT THE HIGHEST POINT IS PALMA 03:09:13PM CEIA PINES. 03:09:13PM HIGHER POINT BEYOND THAT KENNEDY AS WELL. 03:09:16PM THEN PARKLAND ESTATES AND KIND OF FLOWS DOWN. 03:09:20PM YOU SEE THAT ON HOWARD AVENUE. 03:09:21PM IN ESSENCE BY UPGRADING THE SYSTEM AT PARKLAND HE IS SKATES, 03:09:26PM AND ON SOUTH, IT DIRECTLY IMPACTS AND BENEFITS PALMA CEIA 03:09:32PM PINES AS WELL THROUGH THE EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE WHICH IS 03:09:35PM THE 36-INCH PIPE DOWN AUDUBON. 03:09:39PM I WOULD LIKE TO CLARIFY THAT IF YOU DON'T MIND. 03:09:42PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: GO AHEAD. 03:09:44PM >>VIK BHIDE: AS PART OF THE DESIGN PROCESS, THE GOAL IS TO 03:09:48PM IMPACT THE WATER SHED AND TO BENEFIT THE WATER SHED. 03:09:51PM IF THE ANALYSIS FINDS THAT WE NEED TO UPGRADE THAT 36-INCH 03:09:55PM PIPE IMPROVE THE DRAINAGE FROM PALMA CEIA TO BAYSHORE, THAT 03:10:04PM IS PART OF THE SCOPE OF THE PROCESS. 03:10:11PM OUR EXISTING ISSUES ARE. 03:10:18PM AND SOME OF THOSE THINGS I DON'T UNDERSTAND ON YOUR MAP. 03:10:22PM SO I CAN SEE -- I CAN READ IT BETTER NOW. 03:10:24PM AND MUST HAVE BEEN. 03:10:25PM I SEE SWANN AVENUE. 03:10:33PM POINT OUT HOWARD. 03:10:36PM LET'S GO NORTH. 03:10:37PM WE HAVE TWO MAJOR RETENTION PONDS. 03:10:40PM ONE WAS CREATED RELATIVELY RECENTLY OFF OF TAMPA NEA. 03:10:45PM AND THE OTHER ONE OF MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. 03:10:48PM WHAT PURPOSES TO THOSE TWO BEG RETENTION PONDS SERVE AND ARE 03:10:51PM THEY ACTUALLY SERVING THE INTENDED PURPOSE? 03:10:54PM ARE THEY FUNCTIONAL AND FUNCTIONING THE WAY THEY ANTICIPATED 03:10:58PM BEING FUNCTIONAL THE WAY THEY WERE INSTRUCTED. 03:11:01PM >> PART OF A INSUFFICIENT DRAINAGE SYSTEM. 03:11:06PM WHAT IS UNIQUE OF THE AMI POND, FOR EXAMPLE. 03:11:09PM GRAVITY WISE, THE AUDUBON PIPE IS AN OVERFLOW TO THAT POND 03:11:14PM THAT FLOWS DOWN TO PARKLAND ESTATES AND SWANN AND AUDUBON IS 03:11:19PM KIND OF THE BOTTOM OF THE BOWL WHERE THE WATER COLLECTS. 03:11:22PM THE PUMP ACTUALLY FEEDS AND PUMPS WEST TO THE CLEVELAND 03:11:32PM BASIN. 03:11:33PM OF DEVELOPING THE WATERSHED MASTER PLAN WE FEEL PRETTY GOOD 03:11:41PM NAT CLEVELAND BASIN IS AMONG THE HIGHER SCORING PROJECTS. 03:11:47PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHERE IS THE OUTFLOW OF THE CLEVELAND 03:11:54PM BASIN. 03:11:56PM >>VIK BHIDE: EAST PARK. 03:11:57PM CLARK, SWANN AND ALL OF THOSE AREAS WHERE WE SEE FLOODING, 03:12:01PM SIMILAR ISSUES. 03:12:02PM THAT IS A 1950s SYSTEM. 03:12:04PM ALL OF THESE ARE INSUFFICIENT SYSTEMS RELATIVE TO WHEN THEY 03:12:08PM WERE BUILT AND HOW THEY FUNCTION. 03:12:10PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: OKAY, SO -- OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE I MADE THE 03:12:14PM MOTION OF THE BRISTOL MOTION AND I UNDERSTAND SOME OF THE 03:12:19PM CONCERNS AND SPOKE WITH THE MAYOR OF SOME OF THESE THINGS. 03:12:22PM I CAN'T QUITE UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS NOT UNDER ROUTE 03:12:26PM CONSIDERATION OF USING THAT WIDE CORRIDOR ON SWANN. 03:12:30PM IF WE ARE TRYING TO CAPTURE WATER IF IT IS COMING FROM THE 03:12:33PM HIGHER TO LOWER, YOU HAVE THIS BROAD SWANN AVENUE WHICH BY 03:12:37PM THE WAY SELF-INTEREST, I LIVE ON SWANN. 03:12:39PM IT WOULD BE AN IMPACT ON ME TO HAVE TO HAVE THIS 03:12:44PM INCONVENIENCED ON SWANN. 03:12:45PM BUT -- WHY -- WHY WASN'T -- WHY IS IT NOT BEING CONSIDERED 03:12:50PM AT LEAST TO HAVE THAT ROUTE AS A CONSIDERATION OF SWANN TO 03:12:53PM HOWARD. 03:12:53PM SO WE HAVE THAT ENTIRE SECTION OF HOWARD ON THE NORTH 03:12:56PM SECTION OF HOWARD IS NOT ON THE CONSIDERATION MAP. 03:13:04PM >>VIK BHIDE: THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION AND HAS TO DO WITH 03:13:07PM THREE THINGS. 03:13:07PM ONE IS IMPACT. 03:13:08PM THE OTHER IS EXISTING UTILITIES. 03:13:11PM AND THE THIRD IS RELATIVE TO THE OTHER TWO ROUTES. 03:13:15PM WHAT -- AGAIN, BACK TO IMPACT, BASICALLY HOW DOES THE 03:13:21PM HYDROLOGY WORK OUT THERE. 03:13:23PM BECAUSE IT IS FURTHER NORTH. 03:13:24PM SO SWANN IS PART OF THE THREE ROUTES THAT WE ARE GOING TO 03:13:28PM LOOK AT SWANN, BRISTOL OR MORRISON. 03:13:37PM IF IT TURNS THAT SWANN IS THE ROUTE TO BE COLLECTED, THE 03:13:40PM CHALLENGE WITH SWANN BECAUSE IT HAS OTHER UTILITIES ALREADY 03:13:44PM UNDER SWANN AVENUE, WE WILL STILL NEED A FULL CLOSURE. 03:13:48PM WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO LEAVE ANY LANES OPEN. 03:13:51PM AND SO -- AND THIS IS WITHOUT THE DESIGN HAVING STARTED YET. 03:13:55PM BUT -- BUT YOU ARE LOOKING AT A POTENTIAL CLOSURE OF 03:14:00PM ARMENIA, HOWARD AND SWANN AT THE SAME TIME. 03:14:02PM AND -- AND AN ACCURATE POINT WAS MADE EARLIER TODAY. 03:14:05PM SOUTH OF SWANN, WE DON'T HAVE A GREAT GRID BETWEEN MacDILL, 03:14:11PM BAYSHORE GOING NORTH ALL THE WAY BACK TO PLATT OR SWANN. 03:14:15PM AND SO THAT COULD CREATE SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS NOT TO MENTION 03:14:20PM A SCHOOL OUT THERE AND THE GREEK CHURCH AS WELL AND IMPACTS 03:14:23PM FOR EVERYONE. 03:14:24PM THAT IS WHY WE ARE SAYING, LET'S GO THROUGH THE DESIGN 03:14:27PM PROCESS. 03:14:27PM LET'S GO THROUGH ENGAGEMENT AND LET THE FACTS SPEAK FOR 03:14:31PM THEMSELVES AS PART OF THE PROCESS. 03:14:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SEEMS LIKE THE GAP ON HOWARD AS FAR AS NOT 03:14:36PM HAVING THE GRID IS BETWEEN BRISTOL AND THAT ONE BLOCK SOUTH 03:14:39PM OF BRISTOL WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE A GOOD WAY TO GET AROUND 03:14:42PM THAT ONE BLOCK. 03:14:42PM THAT IS AN OBSTACLE. 03:14:44PM >>VIK BHIDE: NOT AN OBSTACLE. 03:14:53PM NORTH OF AUDUBON NORTH AND SOUTH OF SWANN. 03:14:56PM THE PIPE HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE. 03:14:59PM AND THE PIPE IS, THERE. 03:15:01PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THIS PROJECT EXPANDING THE DIAMETER OF THE 03:15:04PM PIPE FROM THE ANTIQUATED COLLECTION SYSTEM IN NORTH OF 03:15:09PM SWANN, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU ARE CONSIDERING OR 03:15:12PM ASKING THE CONTRACTOR LOOK AT FOR STORMWATER RELIEF IN THAT 03:15:16PM AREA BETWEEN SWANN AND KENNEDY? 03:15:22PM >>VIK BHIDE: BETWEEN SWANN AND KENNEDY, WE WILL TAKE A LOOK 03:15:25PM AT IT. 03:15:26PM AND THE FUNCTION OF THE DESIGN AGAIN. 03:15:28PM IF THE AUDUBON PIPE IS NOT SUFFICIENT NORTH OF SWANN, 03:15:35PM UPGRADES WILL BE SUGGESTED TO THAT 36-INCH PIPE. 03:15:39PM THE SYSTEM PUMPS OUT WEST AND YOU CAN'T DREDGE THESE PONDS 03:15:43PM ANYMORE BECAUSE OF THE WATER TABLE. 03:15:45PM AND THEN ON THAT SAME NOTE, ALSO A MENTION ABOUT BALL PARK. 03:15:49PM AND WE CAN BUILD A POND THERE AND SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 03:15:51PM FOR THE WATER SHED IN THE FLOOD AREA THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT, 03:15:55PM WE -- WE WOULD REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF REAL ESTATE TO 03:15:59PM CREATE A VIABLE STORAGE POND. 03:16:01PM AND THAT STILL HASN'T OVERFLOW CHALLENGE LIKE THE AMR POND 03:16:09PM WHY THE AUDUBON WAS PUT IN THE FIRST PLACE. 03:16:12PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: THIS IS MY LAST QUESTION AND I WILL LET 03:16:16PM THE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS SPEAK. 03:16:19PM DON'T LAUGH AT ME -- WITH RAINFALL, THE WAY THIS PROJECT IS 03:16:23PM NOW CONCEIVED, WHAT IS THE ACTUAL CAPACITY OF RAIN PER HOUR 03:16:29PM IT WILL BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE WITHOUT A SURGE BACKING UP 03:16:32PM INTO THE SYSTEM. 03:16:32PM A CLEAN SYSTEM FROM POINT A ALL THE WAY TO POINT Z, HOW MUCH 03:16:37PM RAIN IT WILL ABSORB PER HOUR WITHOUT CREATING FRESHWATER 03:16:41PM FLOODING IN THESE NEIGHBORHOOD? 03:16:45PM >> THERE IS A MIXED ANSWER TO THAT AND REALLY A FUNK OF 03:16:47PM DESIGN. 03:16:48PM THE BOX CULVERTS ARE IN 100 YEAR STORM. 03:17:00PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHICH WE ARE GETTING EVERY THREE YEARS 03:17:03PM NOW. 03:17:03PM [LAUGHTER] 03:17:04PM >>VIK BHIDE: THE FUNCTION OF THE DESIGN PROCESS AND THE GOAL 03:17:07PM TO DESIGN THE LARGEST POSSIBLE SYSTEM WITHIN THE PROJECT 03:17:10PM SCOPE. 03:17:11PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WHAT I'M TRYING TO AVOID AND I WILL SHUT 03:17:16PM UP. 03:17:16PM WHAT I AM TRYING TO AVOID, PEOPLE HAVE A HIGH EXPECTATION OF 03:17:21PM THIS. 03:17:21PM AND MY CONCERN IS THAT WE WILL NEVER MEET FOLK'S 03:17:27PM EXPECTATION. 03:17:27PM AND ON THE SEVENTH YEAR, PEOPLE ARE STILL GOING TO GET 03:17:31PM FLOODED. 03:17:32PM >>VIK BHIDE: VERY GOOD POINT AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR CAUTION 03:17:35PM ON THAT. 03:17:36PM SO, ONE, WE ANTICIPATE THIS BEING DONE IN FOUR. 03:17:50PM IN TERMS OF MANAGING EXPECTATIONS, ON PAPERER, NOT IT HE 03:17:54PM SIGNED FOR A CATEGORY 5 OR CATEGORY 3 STORM NECESSARILY, THE 03:17:59PM SYSTEM ITSELF, BUT IF WE LOOK AT THE PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE 03:18:02PM COMPLETED THAT WENT THROUGH THE TWO STORMS IN 12 DAYS, THOSE 03:18:05PM SYSTEMS PERFORM VERY WELL. 03:18:07PM ALL OF THE NEW PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE. 03:18:09PM SO WE KNOW THIS WORKS. 03:18:11PM AND SOUTH -- SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS, FOR EXAMPLE. 03:18:14PM THE PROPERTIES ALONG THE RIVER WERE IMPACTED, BUT THE 03:18:18PM PROPERTIES THAT WERE NOT ON THE RIVER, PART OF THAT SYSTEM 03:18:22PM DID VERY WELL. 03:18:22PM SO, AGAIN -- YOU KNOW -- THERE IS NO -- THERE IS NO DIRECT 03:18:29PM ANSWER TO WHAT STORM CONDITION UNTIL WE REALLY START DESIGN 03:18:33PM AND WHAT WE CAN ACCOMPLISH. 03:18:34PM THE BOX IS DESIGNED FOR 100-YEAR CONDITION. 03:18:38PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I APPRECIATE YOU AND STAFF AND BEING VERY 03:18:41PM RECEPTIVE AND ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS OFFLINE AS WELL. 03:18:45PM NOT AT IN MEETING BUT BACKGROUND INFORMATION. 03:18:48PM I APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING. 03:18:49PM

ALWAYS COME TO THE MEETINGS. 03:19:07PM AND NEIGHBORS SAY WE NEED TO TRUST ENGINEERS. 03:19:11PM HE WORKED WITH A LOT OF ENGINEERS AND I BELIEVE THEY HAVE AN 03:19:13PM IMPORTANT ROLE TO PLAY; HOWEVER, THIS -- NOT YOU, BUT THIS 03:19:17PM ADMINISTRATION IS PUSHING THIS PROJECT, ALSO IS THE 03:19:21PM ADMINISTRATION TO PUSHED TOILET TO TAP AND WHOLE OTHER 03:19:25PM PROJECTS THAT THE COMMUNITY DIDN'T WANT AND FURTHER ANALYSIS 03:19:28PM -- WHAT I FIND IT DOING -- ECONOMIC AND ENGINEERING ANALYSIS 03:19:34PM AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS THAT EVERYTHING IS BIASED BY THE 03:19:37PM MODEL YOU PUT INTO IT. 03:19:38PM ANYWAY, I WANTED TO ASK YOU, THE DOCUMENT THAT YOU HAVE HERE 03:19:42PM THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT, I NEVER SEEN THIS DOCUMENT BEFORE. 03:19:45PM HAVE YOU -- IS THIS SOMETHING

PEOPLE ARE SHAKING THEIR HEADS. 03:20:03PM I LOOKED AT ALL THE DOCUMENTS ON THE WEB SITE SO YOU DON'T 03:20:06PM HAVE TO LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT. 03:20:08PM THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT THING BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY THE 03:20:11PM ADMINISTRATION HAS STIRRED UP TROUBLE IN THIS LIKE THEY HAVE 03:20:13PM MANY OTHER PROJECTS IN THE CITY AND MAINLY TO TAKE AWAY 03:20:19PM BLAME AGAINST THEM FOR NOT PUSHING THIS FORWARD. 03:20:21PM WHEN WAS THIS CITY COUNCIL FIRST BRIEFED ON THIS PROJECT? 03:20:25PM >>VIK BHIDE: THIS WAS IN YOUR QUARTERLY REPORT JUNE 2022. 03:20:29PM AND THERE WAS SEVERAL

MENTIONED THAT -- TO ME IN AN MEAL THAT HE HAD WASTEWATER IN 03:36:18PM HIS HOUSE. 03:36:18PM AND I SENT HIM AN E-MAIL BACK AND SAID THE WASTEWATER PEOPLE 03:36:22PM TELL ME THAT THERE WAS NOT A WASTEWATER LEAK. 03:36:26PM IF YOU HAVE EVIDENCE OF IT, LET ME KNOW. 03:36:28PM HE TOOK OFFENSE TO THAT. 03:36:29PM I APOLOGIZED TO HIM IN THE HALLWAY. 03:36:33PM I SAID IF YOU HAVE EVIDENCE, LET US KNOW. 03:36:35PM HE SAID EVERYTHING THAT HAD WASTEWATER IS GONE. 03:36:39PM I DON'T HAVE PROOF OF IT. 03:36:41PM I KNOW WASTEWATER IS NOT YOUR DEPARTMENT, BUT DO YOU HAVE 03:36:44PM EVIDENCE THAT WASTEWATER LEAKED INTO THAT AREA. 03:36:47PM >>VIK BHIDE: AFTER STORMS, WE HAVE STORMWATER AND WASTEWATER 03:36:51PM LEAKS, ESPECIALLY IF THERE ARE POWER OUTAGES. 03:36:53PM HE CAN'T GO INTO SPECIFICS BEYOND THAT, BECAUSE IT IS NOT MY 03:36:56PM DEPARTMENT. 03:36:56PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK, MIRANDA AND VIERA. 03:37:01PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU SO MUCH. 03:37:03PM THIS IS MY MOTION AND I WANTED TO GET AN UPDATE OF HOW FAR 03:37:06PM THINGS ARE GOING. 03:37:07PM I'M COMING AT IT FROM A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE. 03:37:12PM I WAS ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD BOARD OF OLD SEMINOLE HEIGHTS AND 03:37:15PM SORRY, NOBODY ELSE HAD A TIMER AND I DON'T THINK IT IS FAIR. 03:37:19PM I WAS ON THE BOARD OF OLD SEMINOLE HEIGHTS BEFORE I JOINED 03:37:23PM COUNCIL AND HAD THE SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS STORMWATER 03:37:27PM IMPROVEMENT START. 03:37:28PM I WILL APOLOGIZE RIGHT NOW IT WAS A SHIT SHOW. 03:37:32PM EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE, BUT THAT'S IT WHAT IT WAS. 03:37:35PM IT WAS FROM THE BEGINNING, AND -- ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WAS 03:37:44PM THE WORST PART OF IT WAS WE WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE DESIGN. 03:37:48PM AND MISS SHARFE. 03:37:52PM I WILL ASK YOU TO SHOW THAT MAP. 03:37:53PM SO THE DESIGN THAT WAS CHOSEN WITHOUT ANY COMMUNITY INPUT -- 03:37:59PM AND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE WHERE THE LITTLE GREEN THINGS 03:38:03PM SAYS IGNACIO. 03:38:04PM THAT IS CREST AVENUE. 03:38:06PM THAT IS JUST A STREET OF HOMES. 03:38:08PM JUST IT. 03:38:09PM NOTHING -- NOTHING PARTICULARLY DIFFERENT FROM IT FROM THE 03:38:13PM STREET ABOVE IT OR THE STREET BELOW IT. 03:38:14PM WHY WAS IT CHOSEN? 03:38:17PM HONESTLY, IT -- IT COULD HAVE BEEN OTHER AREAS. 03:38:20PM IT COULD HAVE BEEN OTHER STREETS. 03:38:22PM AND WE AS A COMMUNITY WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THAT PROCESS. 03:38:26PM THE CITY HAS LEARNED FROM THAT BUT I WANT TO TELL YOU THIS 03:38:31PM STREET, THIS LOVELY LITTLE STREET, A YEAR ONE FULL YEAR THAT 03:38:37PM PEOPLE COULD NOT ACCESS THEIR HOMES WITH A CAR. 03:38:40PM DIRT STREETS. 03:38:41PM DIRT EVERYWHERE. 03:38:42PM PEOPLE HAD TO PARK ON THE RIVER AND WALK IN THE HOME. 03:38:47PM PARK ON NEIGHBORS' YARDS. 03:38:50PM THE ENTIRE STREET WAS CLOSED. 03:38:53PM TO GIVE YOU A PERSPECTIVE ON WHAT WAS PUT IN THERE, 03:39:00PM HIS SHARFE IS ABOUT -- I AM FIVE FOOT. 03:39:03PM >> I'M TALLER THAN THAT, BY THE WAY. 03:39:05PM >>LYNN HURTAK: SHE IS TALLER THAN ME. 03:39:07PM BUT IF YOU PUT ANOTHER OF HER ON TOP AND IF BUT PUT HER SIDE 03:39:11PM TO SIDE, TEN FOOT BY TEN FOOT CULVERTS ARE WHAT WENT ON THAT 03:39:17PM STREET. 03:39:17PM WHAT WENT ON CREST AVENUE. 03:39:19PM I MEAN, WE ARE TALKING HUGE -- HUGE THINGS. 03:39:24PM A LOT OF TRAUMA. 03:39:25PM WE HAD WATER -- WE HAD ALSO INCLUDING THE STORMWATER VAULTS. 03:39:32PM WATER OFTEN BOTH SIDE AND WASTEWATER ON BOTH SIDES BECAUSE 03:39:36PM THEY COULDN'T CONNECT BECAUSE OF THE GIANTNESS OF THESE 03:39:40PM CULVERTS. 03:39:40PM THE INSULT TO INJURY ON PEOPLE ON CREST BECAUSE -- BECAUSE 03:39:47PM THERE WASN'T THE INFORMATION SHARED AHEAD OF TIME. 03:39:50PM CREST NEVER FLOODS. 03:39:51PM A STREET THAT AUTOMATICALLY ANGLES TO THE RIVER AND DOUBLY 03:39:55PM ANGRY BECAUSE THEIR STREET NEVER FLOODED AND NEVER TOLD OF 03:39:58PM IT. 03:39:58PM IT WAS A LOT OF DRAMA. 03:40:00PM BUT I WILL TELL YOU IN THIS STORM, IN MILTON, SOUTHEAST 03:40:07PM SEMINOLE HEIGHTS. 03:40:08PM THIS IS THE RIVER. 03:40:09PM SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS IS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE 03:40:12PM INTERSTATE CONSIDERABLY. 03:40:14PM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF NEBRASKA. 03:40:15PM THAT WAS THE ACTUAL TARGET OF THE FLOODING. 03:40:20PM AND FROM THE BEGINNING -- NOWHERE IN THAT AREA FLOODED THE 03:40:24PM WAY THAT IT HAD BEFORE INCREMENTALLY IT GETS BETTER. 03:40:33PM SOMEONE BROUGHT UP THE SECOND DEGREE. 03:40:40PM IDEA AND CAN'T WORK AND HERE IS WHY. 03:40:43PM SAY THE -- WE DIVIDED INTO PARKLAND ESTATE ELECTION GETS 03:40:49PM FIRST. 03:40:49PM WHAT HAPPENS TO ALL THAT WATER? 03:40:51PM SO WE HAVE TO GO BACKWARDS. 03:40:53PM BUT YOU HAVE OPTIONS. 03:40:55PM AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THAT THE 03:40:58PM NEIGHBORHOOD CAN TALK ABOUT. 03:40:58PM SOMEBODY BROUGHT UP BEING DONE IN 100 DAYS, THAT IS BECAUSE 03:41:09PM 24-7. 03:41:10PM IT WAS PLANNED OUT 247. 03:41:13PM FOLKS WORKING EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY. 03:41:15PM COULD WE DO THAT? 03:41:17PM YEAH, WE COULD WE COULD. 03:41:21PM BUT THAT MEANS THAT MEANS THE NEIGHBORS NOT SLEEPING. 03:41:26PM I MEAN THERE ARE OPTIONS, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, IT IS POSSIBLE. 03:41:30PM SO THE WORLD IT YOUR OYSTER. 03:41:33PM Y'ALL CAN DECIDE THAT. 03:41:34PM THAT IS NOT OUR DECISION. 03:41:36PM THAT WILL BE THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND THE DESIGN AND THE 03:41:41PM CONTRACTORS, THAT IS NOT OUR DECISION. 03:41:43PM SADLY SEMINOLE HEIGHTS STORMWATER CLOSED FOUR LANES OF 03:41:55PM FLORIDA AVENUE FOR OVER THREE WEEKS. 03:41:57PM FOUR LANES. 03:41:58PM I WILL TELL YOU THIS RIGHT NOW. 03:41:59PM THAT WAS A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, WE STILL DON'T HAVE PAVEMENT 03:42:03PM ON THAT BECAUSE WE ARE STILL FIGHTING WITH FDOT HOW THE 03:42:06PM INLETS ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK. 03:42:08PM STILL FIGHTING. 03:42:09PM BUT -- AND IT WAS -- IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE -- IT WAS AWFUL. 03:42:14PM ABSOLUTELY AWFUL. 03:42:16PM WE DID WHAT WE COULD TO MANAGE TRAFFIC AROUND IT AND ALL WE 03:42:20PM COULD DO. 03:42:21PM YOU AS NEIGHBORS, THE NEIGHBORS THAT ARE IMPACT READY GOING 03:42:23PM TO HAVE TO HAVE THAT ZENNESS OF -- THIS IS AWFUL BUT IT IS 03:42:28PM GOING TO PASS. 03:42:29PM THIS IS A AWFUL AND IT IS GOING TO PASS. 03:42:32PM I AM HAPPY TO TALK TO THE ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD OFFLINE ABOUT 03:42:35PM THAT. 03:42:35PM BUT WE LEARNED -- THE PROJECT GOT SO BAD THAT WE HAD TO HAVE 03:42:41PM THE CONTRACTOR COME EVERY TWO WEEKS TO COUNCIL -- EVERY TWO 03:42:46PM WEEKS AND TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE DOING. 03:42:48PM IT GOT THAT BAD. 03:42:49PM WE -- I DID -- COUNCILMAN MANISCALCO AND I DID BOTH DID 03:42:55PM TOURS EVERY OTHER MONTH. 03:42:56PM WE WENT OUT AND GOT A FULL TOUR FROM X TO Z. 03:43:01PM I MEAN EVERYTHING. 03:43:02PM SO DEFINITE WAYS THAT COUNCIL AND THE PEOPLE WHO REPRESENT 03:43:08PM YOU CAN MONITOR AND ASSIST. 03:43:10PM BUT WE HAVE LEARNED A LOT FROM THIS PROJECT. 03:43:13PM I AM -- THE ONLY THING -- THE ONLY OTHER THING I WANTED TO 03:43:19PM ADD IS WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT -- AND I DON'T DISAGREE. 03:43:22PM I THINK WE -- WHEN EVERYBODY LOOKS AND SEES WHAT THE BEST 03:43:27PM ROUTE IS, I HATE TO SAY THAT THINGS UNDER GROUND MATTER, BUT 03:43:35PM WE OPENED A SMALL SECTION OF CENTRAL AVENUE AND HANNA WHICH 03:43:40PM IS A BIG INTERSECTION IN SEMINOLE HEIGHTS BECAUSE HANNA IS 03:43:43PM THE ONLY STREET THAT GOES UNDER THE INTERSTATE. 03:43:48PM HOW PEOPLE GOES TO PUBLIC LICKS. 03:43:50PM NO GROCERY STORE ON THE CEASE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE -- ON 03:43:53PM THE WEST SIDE, PARDON. 03:43:55PM WHEN THAT WAS CLOSED, IT WAS CLOSED FOR ALMOST TWO MONTHS 03:44:00PM BECAUSE ONCE THEY OPENED IT, AND THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL 03:44:06PM THERE. 03:44:06PM THEY HAD TO TIME IT IN THE SUMMER. 03:44:08PM IT HAD TO BE DONE BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED. 03:44:10PM WHEN WE OPENED IT, THEY FOUND SO MUCH. 03:44:13PM THEY WEREN'T PLANNING ON FINDING. 03:44:14PM IN TERMS OF ADDITION TO UTILITIES THAT, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE'S 03:44:20PM POWER WENT OUT. 03:44:21PM NOT POWER, BUT PEOPLE LOST THEIR INTERNET MULTIPLE TEAMS. 03:44:25PM THERE WAS A LOT THAT WE WERE GOING THROUGH THERE. 03:44:27PM I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT WE HAVE DONE THIS. 03:44:29PM WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS. 03:44:30PM IT IS POSSIBLE TO DO. 03:44:34PM AND I -- I BELIEVE THAT THE NEIGHBORHOODS, THE BUSINESSES, 03:44:38PM AND THE CONTRACTORS CAN ALL FIND A WAY TO COME TOGETHER AND 03:44:42PM MAKE IT WORK, BUT THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO INCLUDE US. 03:44:45PM I WILL ALSO SAY THAT ONE OF THE THINGS I THINK THE CITY 03:44:53PM LEARNED BEST WAS HOW TO SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS. 03:44:56PM TOURING THE CLOSURE ON FLORIDA AVENUE, THAT WAS -- THAT WAS 03:44:59PM IN FRONT OF THE INDEPENDENT. 03:45:01PM THAT WAS IN FRONT OF THE -- MAJOR -- MAJOR RESTAURANTS. 03:45:08PM YOU KNOW WHAT WE DID, WE DID A CAMPAIGN OF THE CITY. 03:45:10PM THE MAYOR CAME OUT. 03:45:12PM I CAME OUT. 03:45:13PM WE WERE DOING PHOTOS OF US EATING AND VISITING THE 03:45:19PM ESTABLISHMENTS. 03:45:20PM ENCOURAGING THE NEIGHBORS. 03:45:21PM BECAUSE OUR NEIGHBORS LOVED THE NEIGHBORHOOD ESTABLISHMENTS 03:45:24PM WE ALL MET. 03:45:26PM >>VIK BHIDE: WE HAD TWO MEETINGS THERE. 03:45:28PM >>LYNN HURTAK: IT IS NOT GOING TO BE AWESOME. 03:45:32PM NOT GOING TO BE GREAT. 03:45:33PM PARTS THAT ARE AWFUL AND KNOW THAT. 03:45:36PM KNOW THAT IT IS GOING TO BE BAD. 03:45:38PM IT IS GOING TO BE BAD. 03:45:39PM AND THEN BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WHEN IT IS NOT AS BAD AS 03:45:43PM YOU THINK IT IS. 03:45:44PM AND THAT IS REALLY -- THAT IS WHAT I THINK THE SOUTHEAST 03:45:47PM SEMINOLE HEIGHTS STORMWATER WAS A VERY GOOD LESSON FOR HOW 03:45:52PM WE GO FORWARD. 03:45:52PM AND BECAUSE OF ALL THE INTERACTION THAT COUNCIL HAD TO HAVE, 03:45:57PM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS HAD TO HAVE, THAT -- THAT -- 03:46:01PM THAT PROJECTS GOING FORWARD CAN AND WILL BE BETTER BECAUSE 03:46:05PM WE ARE NOT GOING TO DEMAND ANYTHING LESS. 03:46:07PM I AM SORRY, WE ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT ANYTHING LESS. 03:46:11PM THANK YOU. 03:46:11PM >>VIK BHIDE: THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT COUNCILWOMAN, BECAUSE 03:46:15PM WE HAVE LEARNED FROM SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS 03:46:19PM SPECIFICALLY. 03:46:19PM AND THE PHASING PLAN WE INITIALLY PROPOSED AND IS STILL 03:46:23PM AVAILABLE, LIKE YOU SAID, THAT IS A COMMUNITY PRIORITIES 03:46:28PM CONVERSATION IS TO MITIGATE THESE LONG RUNS OF CLOSURE AT 03:46:32PM ANY GIVEN TIME. 03:46:33PM AND THE TO KIND OF SPREAD IT OVER TIME AND ALLOW THE 03:46:37PM CONTRACTOR TO EXERCISE INNOVATIVE MEANS AND METHODS. 03:46:42PM FOR THAT, KIMMINS -- THEY HAVE DONE GREAT WORK URBAN 03:46:46PM ENVIRONMENTS IN TAMPA. 03:46:47PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I DIDN'T MENTION THE CONTRACTOR BUT I WILL 03:46:51PM SAY IT WASN'T KIMMINS. 03:46:53PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: BEFORE I GO TO COUNCILMAN MIRANDA REAL 03:46:56PM QUICK REGARDING SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS. 03:46:57PM I THINK COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK AND I GOT THE BULK OF ENDLESS 03:47:02PM COMPLAINTS. 03:47:02PM WE DID THE TOURS. 03:47:03PM PERSON WHO TOOK ME ON THE TOUR ENDED UP GOING SOMEWHERE 03:47:07PM ELSE. 03:47:07PM I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE STORY WAS. 03:47:09PM BUT IT WAS MISERABLE. 03:47:10PM CREST WAS MISERABLE. 03:47:12PM FLORIDA WAS IN MISERABLE. 03:47:14PM SOME BUSINESSES WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. 03:47:16PM NOT EVERYBODY SURVIVES IT. 03:47:17PM LATER WHEN IT IS MY TURN TO TALK, I HAVE PHOTOS THAT I TOOK 03:47:22PM BACK IN 2019 THE ESTRELLA, WESTSHORE, HENDERSON, DALE MABRY 03:47:29PM PROJECT AND PEOPLE CAN SEE THE MAGNITUDE OF IT. 03:47:31PM ONE THING OF SEEING A SKETCH ON ROAD CLOSURES, BUT I WILL 03:47:36PM SHOW YOU WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. 03:47:37PM COUNCILMAN MIRANDA AND VIERA. 03:47:39PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: I AM IN ALL THE CONVERSATION. 03:47:41PM I HAVE GROWN TOILET TO TAP, HURRICANES, TWO AND A HALF 03:47:45PM DEGREES WARMER IN THE GULF WHICH IS TRUE AND TOILET TO TAP 03:47:49PM THAT I KNOW OF NEVER KILLED ANYONE. 03:47:51PM IF YOU WANT TO CHALLENGE FROM LAKE LANIER, TO SACRAMENTO, 03:47:56PM THEY ALL USE TOILET TO TAP. 03:47:59PM ENVIRONMENTALISTS WANT IT THERE. 03:48:02PM ENVIRONMENTALISTS HERE DO NOT WANT. 03:48:04PM SO BE IT. 03:48:06PM NOT ONE LIVING MICROBE AS MUCH IN TOILET TO TAP AND IS 03:48:12PM CLEANED UP. 03:48:13PM HOWEVER, WE ARE TALKING OF THE DEVASTATION OF YOUR 03:48:15PM NEIGHBORHOOD. 03:48:15PM DEVASTATION OF HALF OF THIS CITY. 03:48:17PM WASN'T JUST YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, AROUND YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU 03:48:21PM GO TO DAVIS ISLAND. 03:48:22PM YOU GO TO PALMETTO BEACH. 03:48:24PM YOU GO TO RIVERSIDE EAST -- WEST OF THE RIVER AND WEST 03:48:28PM TAMPA, ALL THOSE HOUSES, EVERY ONE OF THEM IS FLOODED. 03:48:33PM HALF A BLOCK IN. 03:48:34PM NOT ONE FLOODED. 03:48:35PM SO WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT IS SOMETHING THAT WORKS SOMEWHERE 03:48:39PM BETTER THAN OTHERS. 03:48:40PM I THINK YOU ARE -- I THINK YOUR PRESENTATION HITS IT RIGHT 03:48:42PM ON THE

A MOTION TO COVER 04:23:04PM THIS WITH SHORT TERM SOLUTION RELATIVE TO STORMWATER AND 04:23:08PM THINGS LIKE THAT. 04:23:09PM THAT IS WHEN WE WILL HAVE BETTER INFORMATION AND GENERATORS 04:23:11PM AND WHAT WE CAN DO IN THE SHORT TERM. 04:23:14PM A POINT WAS MADE EARLIER TODAY ABOUT MAINTENANCE AND THAT IS 04:23:18PM CRITICAL. 04:23:18PM WE TO HAVE A MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT. 04:23:22PM THE SERVICE ASSESSMENT. 04:23:23PM BUT IT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED RELATIVE TO OUR NEEDS AND COSTS 04:23:27PM TODAY. 04:23:28PM I WILL LEAVE IT AT THAT. 04:23:29PM THANK YOU. 04:23:30PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK AND CLOSE OUT WITH 04:23:33PM COUNCILMAN CARLSON AND THEN -- WELL, COUNCILMAN MIRANDA WILL 04:23:36PM BE THE CLOSER. 04:23:37PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THANK YOU. 04:23:37PM THANK YOU SO MUCH. 04:23:38PM I JUST WANT -- I AM GLAD YOU MENTIONED THE WATER SHED 04:23:43PM MITIGATION PLAN BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT I WAS GOING TO BRING UP 04:23:45PM THAT OUR STAFF IS ALREADY WORKING ON THE NEXT ITERATION. 04:23:48PM THIS IS -- THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE KNOW WE NEEDED TO TAKE 04:23:52PM CARE OF, AND I AM SO AND HAPPY TO SAY THAT OUR CITY HAS BEEN 04:24:03PM FAR AHEAD THAN ANY OTHER CITY IN THE STATE LOOKING AT THIS 04:24:06PM BEFOREHAND. 04:24:07PM WE KNOW -- WE KNOW WE ARE A CITY THAT HAS THIS KIND OF 04:24:11PM IMPACT. 04:24:11PM AND MILTON AND HELENE JUST PROVED IT TO US THAT WE WERE 04:24:16PM RIGHT TO GET STARTED. 04:24:17PM IF WE COULD HAVE STARTED 20 YEARS BEFORE THAT, GREAT. 04:24:19PM BUT WE ARE WHERE WE ARE. 04:24:21PM AND WE ARE BET YOU ARE OFF WHERE WE WERE. 04:24:23PM AND I DO WANT TO NEXT THAT -- THAT THE MILLING. 04:24:26PM A LOT OF THAT IS ALLEYS. 04:24:28PM A LOT OF THAT IS ALLEYS. 04:24:29PM BECAUSE ALLEYS ARE WHERE STORMWATER GOES A LOT OF 04:24:32PM COMMUNITIES. 04:24:33PM AND I -- I HAD TALK TALKED TO YOU ABOUT EVEN CREATING A -- 04:24:42PM WHEN WE FIXED THESE ALLEYS AND LOWERED AND MILLED THEM, THAT 04:24:47PM BECOMING ANOTHER WAY THAT PEOPLE CAN USE THEM FOR RECREATION 04:24:56PM WHICH IS A HUGE ISSUE IN THE SUMMER. 04:24:58PM ALLEYS ARE SHADED AND TREED. 04:25:00PM A ONE-TWO PUNCH. 04:25:02PM TO USE STORMWATER FUNDS FOR THAT WORK. 04:25:05PM WE ARE FIXING THE ALLEYS AND ADDING MAYBE A LITTLE PARKS 04:25:09PM MONEY ON TOP OF THAT TO HELP -- TO HELP MAKE IT MORE USABLE 04:25:13PM SPACE. 04:25:13PM SORT OF A TWO-FOR-ONE. 04:25:16PM THE REASON I TURNED ON MY MIC, I AM DEFINITELY CONCERNED OF 04:25:21PM BUSINESSES AND MAKING SURE WE DO WHATEVER WE CAN TO MITIGATE 04:25:29PM ANY OF THE IMPACTS BECAUSE THESE ARE WEEK AND MONTH IMPACTS. 04:25:34PM ONE OR TWO MONTHS, NOT YEAR IMPACTS. 04:25:37PM WHAT WE WILL HAVE TO DO IS FIND A WAY TO HAVE MORE PARKING 04:25:40PM SOMEWHERE. 04:25:41PM TO HAVE WAYS THAT WE CAN ENCOURAGE PEOPLE -- ENCOURAGE 04:25:45PM PEOPLE TO COME TO HOWARD AVENUE TO USE THESE BUSINESSES AND 04:25:55PM THE NEIGHBORS TALKED ABOUT -- HOW THIS FOCUS IS IMPACTED 04:25:59PM THAT IS WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO GET THEIR FUNDS AND WHERE 04:26:02PM THEY ARE GOING TO VISIT. 04:26:03PM SO I JUST -- I DO WANT PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT A FOUR-YEAR 04:26:08PM PROJECT DOES NOT MEAN FOUR YEARS OF NOT ACCESS -- NOT HAVING 04:26:12PM ACCESS TO HOWARD AVENUE. 04:26:13PM ONE THE HOWARD AVENUE SECTION IS DONE WHICH WILL PROBABLY BE 04:26:17PM THE -- HONESTLY LOOKING AT ANY OF THE THOSE PATHWAYS, THE 04:26:23PM SHORTEST LEAST IMPACTFUL PART. 04:26:26PM THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO VISIT THOSE BUSINESSES AND I THINK 04:26:29PM THAT WE HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH FROM SOUTHEAST SEMINOLE HEIGHTS 04:26:33PM ABOUT WHAT WE CAN DO FOR SMALL BUSINESSES TO HELP. 04:26:37PM THERE WILL ALWAYS BE MORE THINGS WE CAN LEARN HERE. 04:26:40PM AND I AM JUST SAYING I AM COMMITTED TO WORKING ON THAT. 04:26:43PM I AM SUBMITTED TO DRIVING DOWN AND PATRON SIZING THOSE 04:26:47PM BUSINESSES PERSONALLY AND ENCOURAGING OTHERS IN THE 04:26:50PM COMMUNITY DO SO BECAUSE THAT IS THE WAY WE GET THROUGH THESE 04:26:53PM TYPE OF PROJECTS. 04:26:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CARLSON AND MIRANDA WILL 04:26:57PM CLOSE US OUT. 04:26:57PM >>BILL CARLSON: FIRST, I WANT TO SAY TO THE FOLKS HERE AND 04:27:02PM TO THE ONES WATCHING ONLINE, I TOLD EVERYBODY PUBLICLY CLOSE 04:27:08PM AND PRIVATELY. 04:27:08PM I AM 100% COMMITTED TO FINDING A SOLUTION. 04:27:13PM I DON'T LIKE THE SOLUTION ON THE TABLE. 04:27:15PM MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND OTHERS DON'T 04:27:18PM LIKE THE SOLUTION. 04:27:18PM THE CONFLICT HAS COME FOR SOME REASON PEOPLE ARE BATTLING 04:27:23PM THAT WE SHOULDN'T OPEN IT TO ADDITIONAL IDEAS. 04:27:25PM VIK, IF YOU COME BACK WITH A PROPOSAL, IT CAN'T BE A REGULAR 04:27:31PM DESIGN-BUILD CONTRACT. 04:27:36PM IT HAS TO BE A PROCESS WHERE THE PUBLIC IS ENGAGED AND 04:27:39PM LOOKING TO GIVE INPUT INTO IT. 04:27:40PM I USED TO DO PUBLIC INPUT FOR A REASON. 04:27:48PM YOU WANT TO SELL A PROJECT. 04:27:50PM WHAT COLOR YOU WANT IT TO BE AND WHAT CORNER YOU WANT TO 04:27:53PM START WITH FIRST. 04:27:54PM PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT AND CLEARLY NOT PUBLIC INPUT. 04:28:02PM NOT REAL PUBLIC INPUT DONE BEFORE LAST YEAR OR BEFORE EARLY 04:28:06PM THIS YEAR. 04:28:07PM THERE WERE MEETINGS SINCE THEN, BUT NO REAL BIG PUBLIC MEET 04:28:12PM BUGS SOME NEIGHBORHOOD MEETINGS, AND I AM DISAPPOINTED OF 04:28:17PM THE WAY THE MAYOR AND HER POLITICAL ADVISOR I UNDERSTAND 04:28:21PM WENT TO MEET WITH A SMALL GROUP AND NOT A LARGER GROUP OF 04:28:25PM PARKLAND ESTATES AND ANY OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD. 04:28:27PM I WOULD RECOMMEND A MEETING OF EVERYONE ONCE YOU START THE 04:28:30PM PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PROCESS. 04:28:31PM COMMUNICATION ON THIS HAS BEEN TERRIBLE. 04:28:34PM YOU HAVE THE BEST PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PERSON, MICHELLE 04:28:38PM ROBINSON. 04:28:38PM YOU HAVE THE BEST PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PERSON. 04:28:43PM SHE ABSOLUTELY KNOWS HOW TO DO IT. 04:28:45PM BUT YOU HAVE TO WORK WITH HER RIGHT TO MAKE SURE IT WORKS. 04:28:48PM WE HAVE TO HAVE REAL PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT AND PUBLIC INPUT. 04:28:52PM YOU TALKED ABOUT THE -- FOR THE PUBLIC, MY SKEPTICISM IS -- 04:28:57PM IS -- AND GUIDO ALLUDED TO, MY ADMINISTRATION GOT THINGS 04:29:05PM PRESENTED TO US THAT WE FOUND OUT WAS COMPLETELY FALSE. 04:29:08PM YES, WE TRUST ENGINEERS BUT WHEN THE CITY SAYS WITH HE MUST 04:29:13PM PAY $6 BILLION ON A TOILET TO TAP AND RUN OUT OF WATER AND 04:29:17PM PROVE THAT IT IS FALSE AND THEY FINALLY ADMIT IT IS FALSE 04:29:20PM AND I CAN GO OVER AND OVER AND GIVE YOU HUNDREDS EXAMPLES. 04:29:23PM WHEN THE ADMINISTRATION HAS A TRACK RECORD OF PRESENTING 04:29:27PM THINGS THAT -- THAT DON'T BUILD TRUST IN THE COMMUNITY AND 04:29:31PM DON'T BUILD TRUST FOR COUNCIL, IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO US. 04:29:34PM WHAT HAPPENS IS THEY PRESENT SOMETHING THAT PRESENT 04:29:36PM SOMETHING TO US AND THEY GET US TO APPROVE IT AND ANOTHER 04:29:39PM BITE OF THE APPLE. 04:29:43PM WHEN IT COMES BACK TO US, THEY SAY YOU ARE ALREADY APPROVED 04:29:46PM IT AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING FURTHER. 04:29:48PM THEY SAY YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO VOTE ON IT AGAIN. 04:29:50PM WE DON'T TRUST THEM -- AT LEAST I DON'T TRUST THEM BECAUSE 04:29:53PM THEY HAVE DONE BEFORE AND SAID YOU ALREADY PROVED IT. 04:29:56PM THE PUBLIC HAS TO HAVE INPUT INTO THE PROCESS AND THE ROUTE. 04:29:59PM SOUNDED LIKE FROM YOUR STATEMENTS AFTER YOU AND I TALK 04:30:02PM THE ROUTES ARE ALREADY SET. 04:30:04PM AND -- AND WE KNOW FROM THE DOCUMENTS IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS 04:30:08PM SET. 04:30:08PM YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE IT OPEN AND ONE TIME YOU HAVE 04:30:11PM TOLD ME 14, 19, WHATEVER THE ROUTES, WHATEVER THE SOLUTION 04:30:15PM WE HAVE TO OPEN THAT UP. 04:30:15PM ALSO, IT -- IN THE PUBLIC OUTREACH, NOT JUST IMPORTANT TO 04:30:22PM UNDERSTAND THE ROUTES AND EVERYTHING YOU HAVE TO TALK OF 04:30:29PM DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS. 04:30:30PM HISTORIC HYDE PARK. 04:30:31PM NOT EVERYBODY SHOWED UP TODAY BECAUSE THEY FIGURED THIS WAS 04:30:34PM A REGULAR UPDATE. 04:30:35PM THEY CAN WATCH IT ON TV. 04:30:37PM BUT THE NEXT TIME WE WILL HAVE A LOT MORE PEOPLE ONE OF THE 04:30:42PM CONCERNS THAT BUSINESSES SAID IF THIS GOES DOWN HOWARD, THEY 04:30:45PM WILL FILE A LAWSUIT. 04:30:46PM IF IT GOES DOWN SWANN, MAY HAVE A LAWSUIT. 04:30:50PM IF YOU DON'T DO PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN HORRIBLE 04:30:54PM FOR DATE, WE WILL DEFINITELY GET LAWSUIT. 04:30:57PM WHY SHOULD THE COMMUNITY CARE OF A LAWSUIT, BECAUSE IT CAN 04:31:00PM DELAY IT BY A YEAR OR TWO. 04:31:01PM IF WE DO PROPER PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. 04:31:04PM WE CAN PREVENT THIS ON THIS EDGE. 04:31:08PM I HAVE A MOTION I WILL MAKE LATER ABOUT SHORT-TERM 04:31:11PM SOLUTIONS. 04:31:11PM BUT I REALLY THINK WHAT YOU THINK MIGHT BE SMALLER THINGS, 04:31:14PM WE NEED TO PACKAGE IT ALL TOGETHER AND EXPLAIN TO THE PUBLIC 04:31:17PM THAT WE ARE DOING THINGS. 04:31:18PM EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE PEOPLE HERE THAT I HAVE HEARD TODAY 04:31:22PM THAT THIS COUNCIL HAS ONLY BEEN LOOKING AT THIS FOR A YEAR 04:31:24PM OR LESS. 04:31:25PM THAT WE HAVEN'T BEEN AT IT FOR TEN YEARS AND HAVEN'T DELAY 04:31:31PM IT IS. 04:31:37PM THEY ARE GOING TO ASK US WHY DIDN'T YOU TOP IS IT FROM 04:31:41PM HAPPENING. 04:31:41PM YOU JUST STAYED YOU CAN'T STOP IT. 04:31:44PM NEXT THREE OR FOUR YEARS, THEY WILL GO THROUGH THE 04:31:47PM RENOVATION AND MIGHT GET FLOODED. 04:31:49PM I HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO TRY TO PREVENT THAT. 04:31:53PM AND WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO LOOK FOR SOLUTION ON THAT. 04:31:55PM LAST THING IS WE ALL AGREE TO DISAGREE AT TIMES. 04:32:02PM MY JOB OUTSIDE OF THIS HAS BEEN CONTINUE TO BUILD COMMUNITY 04:32:07PM IN DIVISIVE ISSUES. 04:32:08PM THIS IS MORE DIVISIVE THAN TOILET TO TAP. 04:32:11PM MOST DIVISIVE ISSUE THAT WE HAVE SEEN. 04:32:15PM I DON'T KNOW WHY. 04:32:16PM OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD IN SOUTH TAMPA AND OTHER PLACES AND NOT 04:32:19PM AS DIVISIVE AS THIS. 04:32:20PM ASK EVERYBODY. 04:32:22PM OPEN TO MEETING WITH EVERYBODY. 04:32:24PM I WALKED IN NEIGHBORHOODS AND SAT IN PEOPLE'S HOUSES AND 04:32:27PM HAPPY TO TALK TO ANYBODY ABOUT ANYTHING. 04:32:29PM WANT PEOPLE TO BE TAUPE A TRANSPARENT PROCESS THAT ENGAGES 04:32:33PM THE PUBLIC PROPERLY SO WE CAN GET THE RIGHT SOLUTION. 04:32:36PM I DO NOT WANT TO LOOK AT THE MAPS AND THESE MAPS MAY NO 04:32:40PM LONGER BE VALID, BUT I DON'T WANT TO APPROVE SOMETHING THAT 04:32:44PM THIS MAYOR MAY NOT BE HERE WHEN THIS PROJECT IS DONE. 04:32:47PM UP DON'T WANT TO PROVE SOMETHING WHERE PEOPLE SAY WHY ARE 04:32:50PM YOU WASTING ALL THIS MONEY AND WE ARE STILL GETTING FLOODED. 04:32:54PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN MIRANDA. 04:32:56PM >>CHARLIE MIRANDA: MISS HURTAK, I WAS GOING TO SPEAK THE WAY 04:32:59PM YOU DID AND BRING IT UP. 04:33:01PM PARKING. 04:33:02PM A LOT OF PARKING IN DOWNTOWN TAMPA IN THE PARKING SPACE IN 04:33:07PM EVENINGS. 04:33:07PM WE HAVE SOME OTHER PLAN TO KEEP THOSE -- KEEP THOSE PARKING 04:33:12PM SPOTS OPEN AND HAVE A TRANSFER SHUTTLE BETWEEN US AND THEM 04:33:15PM AND THE -- AND SOLVED FOR MUCH LESS MONEY. 04:33:20PM IT WILL BE GREAT TO HELP THE PEOPLE WHO HELP US. 04:33:23PM THAT IS THE BUSINESS. 04:33:24PM TO CREATE THE TAXES THAT KEEP THE GOVERNMENT RUNNING; 04:33:27PM HOWEVER, I THINK WE CAN DO THAT IF THE CITY CAN WAIVE THE 04:33:30PM PARKING FEES AND BECAUSE OF THE IMPACT IT IS DOING TO HELP 04:33:34PM THE CITY. 04:33:34PM I THINK THOSE THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. 04:33:36PM I SAW A BUS THE OTHER DAY BELONGED TO -- I AM NOT GOING TO 04:33:41PM SAY WHO -- BUT A BRAND-NEW BUS THAT SITS 60 PEOPLE AND OTHER 04:33:45PM BUSES 12, 15 THAT THE POLICE DEPARTMENT MAY HAVE. 04:33:48PM YOU CAN BORROW THAT AND 20 OR 30. 04:33:50PM I AM NOT GOING TO BE THE DRIVER. 04:33:52PM LET ME GET THAT OUT OF THE WAY. 04:33:54PM I DON'T DRINK, BUT I ALSO DON'T DRIVE VERY WELL. 04:33:57PM WHAT I AM SAYING IS WE CAN DO THOSE THINGS, I BELIEVE. 04:34:00PM AND MAKE IT WORK IF WE WORK TOGETHER WITH THE BUSINESSES AND 04:34:04PM WITH THE CITY TO SAY, THIS IS 150 SPACES TO ARE WHATEVER YOU 04:34:08PM HAVE, WE CAN USE THESE AND, YOU KNOW -- I THINK IT COULD 04:34:11PM WORK. 04:34:12PM I REALLY DO. 04:34:13PM I THINK THAT IS JUST PUTTING IT ON THE TABLE. 04:34:16PM YOU CAN LOOK INTO IT. 04:34:17PM SPEAKING TO THE YOUNG LADY RUNS THE OPERATION HOW MANY 04:34:22PM SPACES ARE NEEDED. 04:34:23PM

BECAUSE IT'S INVALUABLE. 5:38:24PM IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS SO IMPORTANT TO THE HISTORY OF THIS 5:38:28PM COMMUNITY, WE CAN'T LOSE IT. 5:38:29PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: WE LOST THE MAAS BROTHERS BUILDING 5:38:33PM DEMOLITION THROUGH NEGLECT. 5:38:37PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: I WATCHED THAT DEMOLITION. 5:38:39PM THAT WAS AN ENTIRE CITY BLOCK FROM THE 1920s. 5:38:42PM THE JACKSON HOUSE I THINK CAN BE SAVED AND PUT TO GOOD USE. 5:38:46PM AGAIN, IT'S TOO IMPORTANT. 5:38:48PM WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. 5:38:57PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: COUNCILMAN CARLSON, THERE IS A PART OF ME 5:38:59PM THAT GREATLY APPRECIATES WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM ON THIS. 5:39:03PM THERE ARE TWO THINGS. 5:39:04PM I SPOKE TO CAROLYN COLLINS, WHO IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE 5:39:08PM FOUNDATION. 5:39:08PM SHE SAYS NO ONE HAS REACHED OUT TO HER REGARDING THIS WITH 5:39:12PM ANY CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME SO THAT SHE COULD HAVE AN 5:39:15PM OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT HERSELF BEFORE US. 5:39:18PM AND I THINK JUST KIND OF LIKE THE MacDILL SITUATION, WE 5:39:21PM SHOULD GIVE IT ONE MORE SHOT WHERE SHE STANDS BEFORE US 5:39:25PM PUBLICLY TO SAY WHAT IT IS THAT SHE NEEDS TO SAY BEFORE WE 5:39:29PM MAKE A DECISION LIKE THIS, OF THIS MAGNITUDE. 5:39:32PM THE OTHER PART IS THAT I FEEL THAT WE WOULD BE OPENING A CAN 5:39:43PM OF WORMS IF WE WERE TO TAKE OVER THE JACKSON HOUSE. 5:39:47PM AND WE ARE -- WE WILL BE IN UNDER OUR HEADS AND WOULD HAVE 5:39:52PM COST US A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY UNLESS ALL OF THOSE 5:39:56PM FUNDS THAT WERE GIVEN TO THEM, THE FOUNDATION, COMES OVER 5:39:59PM WITH US. 5:40:00PM I THINK THAT THAT'S JUST -- THAT WOULD BE A TINY FRACTION OF 5:40:04PM WHAT IT WOULD REALLY COST TO BRING IT BACK TOGETHER. 5:40:06PM I JUST HAPPENED TO WATCH -- IT WASN'T A DOCUMENTARY, BUT 5:40:11PM THERE WAS AN AFRICAN AMERICAN STRUCTURE THAT THEY LITERALLY 5:40:14PM TOOK IT APART AND MOVED IT TO ANOTHER CITY AND PUT IT BACK 5:40:19PM TOGETHER. 5:40:20PM WHEN I LOOK AT THE JACKSON HOUSE AND I SAID THIS A YEAR AGO, 5:40:25PM STANDING UP BY A WING AND A PRAYER. 5:40:27PM THE FIRST PERSON AFTER THE STORM, THE SECOND ONE, MILTON, 5:40:32PM ABBYE FEELEY SAID TO ME, THE JACKSON HOUSE IS STILL 5:40:36PM STANDING. 5:40:37PM IT IS STANDING BY A WING AND A PRAYER. 5:40:38PM IT REALLY IS. 5:40:39PM I JUST FEEL AS THOUGH IF IT COMES INTO OUR POSSESSION, IT'S 5:40:43PM JUST GOING TO BE A HUGE PROBLEM WHEN IT FALLS APART AND THEN 5:40:48PM EVERYONE WILL BE EXPECTING US TO FIX IT AND IT'S GOING TO 5:40:51PM COST MORE MONEY THAN WE BARGAIN FOR. 5:40:54PM I JUST REALLY DON'T FEEL LIKE IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY. 5:40:58PM I THINK THE JACKSON HOUSE, WHICH IS A PREDOMINANTLY BLACK 5:41:02PM ORGANIZATION, GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO SOLVE THEIR OWN 5:41:04PM PROBLEMS AND WE SHOULD ENCOURAGE THEM TO MOVE WITH 5:41:08PM EXPEDIENCY TO DO SO, SO THAT WE WILL NOT BE PLACED IN THIS 5:41:14PM SITUATION. 5:41:14PM I JUST DON'T THINK WE NEED TO BE THE SAVIOR RIGHT NOW UNTIL 5:41:18PM WE AT LEAST HEAR FROM THEM, GIVE THEM THIS OPPORTUNITY TO 5:41:21PM COME BEFORE US AT LEAST ONE MORE TIME. 5:41:23PM THAT'S MY OPINION ON IT. 5:41:25PM I DON'T WANT TO SUPPORT IT, ALTHOUGH I REALLY FEEL LIKE YOU 5:41:29PM DO CARE ABOUT IT. 5:41:31PM YOU'VE GIVEN ME A LOT OF INDICATIONS ABOUT THAT, EVEN 5:41:35PM INCLUDING THE ARTWORK IN THE HALLWAY, THE CORRIDOR OF OUR 5:41:39PM OFFICE SPACE HERE THAT I DIDN'T KNOW THAT'S WHAT IT WAS. 5:41:42PM I APPRECIATE IT. 5:41:43PM NOT THAT I'M FIGHTING YOU ON IT, BUT I DO BELIEVE WE SHOULD 5:41:46PM ALLOW CAROLYN COLLINS TO COME BEFORE US. 5:41:49PM IF SHE DOESN'T SHOW UP OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE AND -- IF 5:41:55PM ANYTHING, THEY NEED TO ASK US FOR THE HELP THAT THEY TRULY 5:41:59PM NEED IF SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED. 5:42:02PM CARDIES HAVE DONE THEIR PART. 5:42:03PM SEEMS LIKE ALL THE OTHER THINGS ARE IN PLACE. 5:42:08PM I DON'T WANT TO TAKE IT OVER AND IT COLLAPSES ON OUR WATCH 5:42:11PM AND HAVE US PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AT AN EXPENSE WE WEREN'T 5:42:15PM ANTICIPATING. 5:42:15PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCILMAN CARLSON AND HURTAK. 5:42:17PM >>BILL CARLSON: AS YOU SAID, I LOVE THE JACKSON HOUSE SO 5:42:21PM MUCH. 5:42:21PM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU KNOW THE PAINTER DEAN MITCHELL, 5:42:25PM INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN PAINTER. 5:42:26PM I BOUGHT A PAINTING FROM HIM OF THE JACKSON HOUSE. 5:42:29PM THOSE ARE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE INSIDE OF THE JACKSON HOUSE. 5:42:31PM THOSE ARE PHOTOGRAPHS. 5:42:33PM AND PEOPLE CAN'T SEE THEM. 5:42:35PM WHEN WE WERE TRYING TO SAVE IT 12 YEARS AGO, A PHOTOGRAPHER 5:42:39PM WENT IN AND THERE WERE HAND PRINTS BY WILLIE AND HIS FAMILY 5:42:43PM ON THE WALL. 5:42:44PM SHE TOOK THE PHOTOS AND MADE AN ABSTRACT PHOTO OF IT THAT'S 5:42:47PM ON THE WALL IN CITY COUNCIL. 5:42:49PM BUT IN MY HOUSE, I PERSONALLY BOUGHT A PAINTING BY DEAN 5:42:53PM MITCHELL OF THE JACKSON HOUSE. 5:42:55PM AND I HAD LENNY FOSTER, WHO IS A CIVIL RIGHTS PHOTOGRAPHER 5:42:59PM COME OVER AND TAKE PHOTOS OF THE JACKSON HOUSE. 5:43:01PM I LOVE THE BUILDING AND I WANT TO SAVE IT. 5:43:04PM IN TERMS OF CONTACT, ALIS LEFT HOW MANY, THREE MONTHS AGO, 5:43:08PM SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 5:43:09PM HE CONTACTED THEM AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH. 5:43:14PM HE RESCHEDULED WITH THEM EIGHT TIMES JUST IN THE LAST YEAR. 5:43:18PM I AGREE WE SHOULD GIVE THEM MORE TIME BUT I WANT TO SCHEDULE 5:43:20PM THIS AND SEE IF THAT LIGHTS A FIRE FOR THEM TO COME MEET 5:43:24PM WITH US BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T HAD AN URGENCY TO MEET WITH US 5:43:27PM AT ALL. 5:43:28PM THEY NEED TO NOT JUST TELL US EXCUSES BUT WHAT THEIR PLAN 5:43:31PM IS. 5:43:32PM ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, THE MONEY REALLY IS GOING TO GO TO THE 5:43:35PM HISTORY CENTER. 5:43:35PM THE HISTORY CENTER IS GOING TO LEAD THE CONSTRUCTION OF IT. 5:43:39PM I DON'T WANT THE CITY TO TAKE IT OVER EITHER, BUT WHAT THE 5:43:42PM JACKSON HOUSE FOUNDATION NEEDS TO DO IS THEY NEED TO TURN 5:43:45PM OVER CONTROL OF THE HISTORY CENTER NOW SO THE HISTORY CENTER 5:43:48PM CAN OPERATE THIS. 5:43:49PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER WHITE PREDOMINANTLY 5:43:52PM ORGANIZATION TAKING OVER ANOTHER BLACK SPACE JUST LIKE THE 5:43:56PM -- THE, UM, FORTHCOMING HISTORY CENTER IN -- IN THE SCRUB. 5:44:03PM GIVE THEM THIS OPPORTUNITY. 5:44:06PM WHAT IF IT FALLS APART ON OUR WATCH? 5:44:09PM WHAT IF IT FALLS APART AND WE CAN'T PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. 5:44:12PM >>BILL CARLSON: THE KEEPER OF BLACK HISTORY IN TAMPA RIGHT 5:44:14PM NOW AS IT IS IS THE HISTORY CENTER. 5:44:18PM AND ARGUABLY THE TOP BLACK HISTORIAN IN TAMPA IS AT THE 5:44:21PM HISTORY CENTER. 5:44:22PM HE AND HIS COLLEAGUES WOULD -- AND THE TEAM FROM USF. 5:44:28PM BUT THEY ARE GOING TO WORK WITH THE JACKSON HOUSE FOUNDATION 5:44:30PM BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITHOUT HAVING THE FAMILY 5:44:32PM INVOLVED. 5:44:36PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK AND VIERA. 5:44:38PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WHY DON'T WE OFFER -- WHAT DATE DID YOU WANT 5:44:42PM THIS? 5:44:46PM >>BILL CARLSON: DECEMBER 19. 5:44:47PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WHY DON'T YOU INVITE THEM TO COME DECEMBER 19 5:44:51PM AS WELL. 5:44:56PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: THAT IS FAIR. 5:44:57PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THIS IS NOT SAYING WE'RE TAKING IT OVER. 5:44:59PM WE'RE GETTING INFORMATION FROM THE CITY AND INFORMATION FROM 5:45:02PM THEM AT THE SAME TIME. 5:45:03PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: LET'S INVITE THEM ALL. 5:45:05PM >>LYNN HURTAK: THAT WAY WE CAN MAKE A DECISION OR WE CAN 5:45:09PM HAVE A DISCUSSION AS A GROUP. 5:45:11PM >>BILL CARLSON: I'LL ADD TO MY MOTION AND INVITE THE JACKSON 5:45:16PM HOUSE FOUNDATION TO SPEAK. 5:45:20PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: WE NEED TO GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY JUST 5:45:22PM LIKE WE DID WITH -- 5:45:25PM >>LYNN HURTAK: I COMPLETELY AGREE. 5:45:27PM I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SENTIMENT AS YOU AS WE CANNOT TAKE AS 5:45:33PM A PREDOMINANTLY WHITE BODY WE SHOULD NOT BE TAKING OVER WHAT<div class="sm:flex sm:items-center sm:justify-center sm:flex-row sm:space-x-1 insert" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;"><ins class="adsbygoogle sm:w-1/2"

JUST -- I'M VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. 5:45:56PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: [INAUDIBLE] -- AND I'LL LEAVE IT AT THAT. 5:46:04PM I WILL SUPPORT THAT. 5:46:06PM MAYBE SHE'S LISTENING TODAY BECAUSE SHE IS AWARE OF THIS. 5:46:11PM >>BILL CARLSON: HOW ABOUT IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER MOTION 5:46:14PM WHICH CAN I READ AGAIN, INVITE THE JACKSON HOUSE FOUNDATION 5:46:16PM TO PRESENT THEIR RENOVATION PLAN. 5:46:20PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: AS A COUNCIL MEMBER, I CAN ACCEPT THAT. 5:46:22PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER VIERA. 5:46:23PM >>LUIS VIERA: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 5:46:24PM SO I HAD VERY SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT THIS. 5:46:28PM FOR ME TO SUPPORT PART OF IT, I WOULD NEED -- AGAIN, 5:46:33PM WHATEVER THE VOTES ARE THERE, BUT TO HAVE THE INVITATION BE 5:46:36PM SEPARATE FROM THIS. 5:46:37PM THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLICATED ISSUES WITH THIS, WITH 5:46:39PM NEIGHBORS, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, A WHOLE LOT OF THINGS. 5:46:42PM I THINK AS COUNCILWOMAN HURTAK AND COUNCILWOMAN HENDERSON 5:46:44PM HAVE SAID FOR US A POLITICAL BODY, A MUNICIPALITY TO START 5:46:51PM TO MAKE THREATS AGAINST A PREDOMINANTLY AFRICAN AMERICAN 5:46:55PM ORGANIZATION ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS, IT HAS TO MEET A HIGHER 5:46:58PM LEVEL OF SCRUTINY THAT I DON'T THINK IS THERE YET. 5:47:00PM HOWEVER, NUMBER ONE, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS POTENTIALLY 5:47:03PM WORTHWHILE, GETS PEOPLE'S ATTENTION. 5:47:06PM I KNOW THAT'S WHAT COUNCILMAN CARLSON WANTS TO DO IN THAT. 5:47:10PM NUMBER TWO, INVITING THEM TO COME ON DECEMBER 19, BY THE 5:47:12PM WAY, SIX DAYS FROM CHRISTMAS. 5:47:14PM MAYBE DO IT BEFORE, MAYBE AFTERWARDS, BUT HAVE THEM. 5:47:17PM I WROTE DOWN ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE. 5:47:19PM AS AN ATTORNEY, IF A JUDGE SAYS, LISTEN, YOU'RE GOING TO BE 5:47:22PM HERE ON THIS DATE, SHOW CAUSE AS WHY SHOULDN'T DISMISS YOUR 5:47:26PM LAWSUIT. 5:47:27PM KIND OF LIKE THAT. 5:47:28PM NOT THAT WE'RE ORDERING HIM TO BE HERE BUT WE WOULD LIKE FOR 5:47:31PM THEM TO BE HERE AT A CERTAIN TIME. 5:47:33PM FOR ME, I CAN'T SUPPORT AT THIS TIME SOMETHING LIKE THAT 5:47:36PM BEFORE WE EXHAUST OTHER REMEDIES. 5:47:38PM I DO SUPPORT HAVING THEM COME WITH THE DIRECTION OF, LISTEN, 5:47:43PM TELL US WHAT YOU'RE DOING. 5:47:45PM WE WANT TO PRESERVE THIS. 5:47:47PM HELP ME HELP YOU. 5:47:51PM THAT'S MY FEELING. 5:47:52PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER HURTAK. 5:47:55PM >>LYNN HURTAK: WHY DON'T WE SAY TENTATIVELY THAT THIS IS THE 5:47:57PM DATE. 5:47:58PM IF THAT DOESN'T WORK FOR THEM, WE CAN MOVE THE ENTIRE THING 5:48:01PM TO A DATE THAT DOES WORK FOR THEM. 5:48:04PM IT'S NOT SET IN STONE THAT IT IS THE 19th. 5:48:10PM IF THEY HAVE TO MOVE IT, THEY HAVE TO MOVE IT. 5:48:12PM EITHER WAY, WE'LL HAVE ALL THAT INFORMATION. 5:48:15PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. 5:48:17PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: FOR THE RECORD, I DID NOT KNOW DRUMGO WAS 5:48:21PM REACHING OUT TO THEM SEVERAL TIMES. 5:48:23PM I KNOW THEY WERE SCHEDULED, BUT EVEN ONE OF THOSE TIMES SHE 5:48:29PM SAID SHE WASN'T AWARE OF. 5:48:32PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I HAVE THE FLOOR. 5:48:35PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: I'M SORRY. 5:48:36PM PRO TEM. 5:48:38PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: I'M SHAKING MY HEAD. 5:48:41PM HE -- WHAT I'M HEARING IS THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY. 5:48:47PM KEEP DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND EXPECTING 5:48:50PM DIFFERENT RESULTS. 5:48:51PM I CAN TELL YOU THAT, YES, ALIS DID REACH OUT MULTIPLE, 5:48:57PM MULTIPLE TIMES. 5:48:58PM IN THIS CHAMBER, THE HEAD OF THE JACKSON FOUNDATION WAS 5:49:01PM BEFORE US AND WAS ASKED TO COME BACK AND GIVE THESE REPORTS. 5:49:05PM WE'VE ALREADY GONE DOWN THIS PROCESS AND NOTHING HAS 5:49:08PM HAPPENED. 5:49:08PM IT'S DETERIORATED THAT MUCH FURTHER. 5:49:11PM WE HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THE CITY, NOT A FINANCIAL 5:49:16PM INTEREST, AND ALSO A CULTURAL INTEREST ON BEHALF OF THE CITY 5:49:20PM AND ALL THE RESIDENTS OF THE CITY THAT HAVE COME BEFORE US 5:49:23PM AND PASSED AND LIVE HERE TODAY AND WILL LIVE HERE TOMORROW 5:49:27PM TO PURSUE THIS TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY. 5:49:30PM I THINK HAVING SOME TYPE OF THRESHOLD, BECAUSE CLEARLY, THIS 5:49:36PM HASN'T GONE ON JUST A YEAR. 5:49:39PM HOW MANY YEARS HAS THIS GONE ON. 5:49:42PM THIS FOOTBALL IS LIKE CHARLIE BROWN. 5:49:44PM THE FOOTBALL GETS SET UP AND LUCY PULLS THE FOOTBALL OUT 5:49:47PM FROM UNDER HIM EVERY SINGLE TIME. 5:49:49PM THERE'S GOT TO BE A MOMENT, AND I THINK THAT MOMENT PASSED A 5:49:55PM LONG TIME AGO. 5:49:56PM WE JUST DIDN'T HAVE THE GUTS TO PULL THE TRIGGER, THIS TIME 5:50:01PM HAS COME AND GONE. 5:50:02PM THEY NEED TO COME BEFORE THIS COUNCIL. 5:50:04PM WE INVESTED MONEY. 5:50:06PM OTHER COMPANIES HAVE INVESTED MONEY. 5:50:09PM COME FORWARD TO COUNCIL WITH A PLAN OR THEY NEED TO 5:50:11PM RELINQUISH CONTROL. 5:50:13PM IF THEY WON'T DO THAT, I THINK COUNCILMAN CARLSON'S 5:50:16PM OBJECTIVE IS ABSOLUTELY ACCURATE. 5:50:19PM EITHER THE CARROT OR THE STICK AND THAT'S WHERE WE ARE. 5:50:21PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION AND WE HAVE A SECOND. 5:50:23PM >>LUIS VIERA: AGAIN, IF THE MOTION IS GEARED TOWARDS COME ON 5:50:29PM THIS DATE AND IF WE DON'T GET SOMETHING SATISFACTORY, THEN 5:50:32PM WE'LL START EXPLORING SOMETHING LIKE THIS, THAT'S SOMETHING 5:50:37PM I CAN SUPPORT. 5:50:38PM BUT PUTTING THAT ON THE MENU THIS TIME, LIKE I SAID, WHEN I 5:50:42PM SAW THE MEMO, I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ALIS. 5:50:47PM I'LL REACH OUT TO HIM. 5:50:49PM THINK THE MEMO CAME OUT ON TUESDAY. 5:50:52PM >>ALAN CLENDENIN: SO MANY BRIEFINGS AND DISCUSSIONS, MAYBE 5:50:54PM THAT'S PART OF MY FRUSTRATION. 5:50:56PM THIS HAS GONE ON FOREVER. 5:50:58PM IF HE HAD HAIR, HE WOULD BE PULLING IT OUT. 5:51:02PM >>LUIS VIERA: I CAN REACH OUT TO HIM AS WELL. 5:51:05PM THAT'S WHAT I PREFER. 5:51:06PM I DIDN'T HAVE TIME AFTER TUESDAY BECAUSE I WAS MOURNING THE 5:51:10PM ELECTION, BUT THAT'S OKAY. 5:51:12PM >>BILL CARLSON: ALL IT'S SAYING, COME BACK AND TALK TO US 5:51:15PM ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF IT. 5:51:16PM WE'RE NOT GOING TO VOTE ON THAT DAY TO DEMOLISH IT. 5:51:20PM BY THE WAY, HAD LINDA SAUL-SENA NOT INTERVENED IN 2012 IT 5:51:25PM WOULD HAVE BEEN TORN DOWN AND WILLIE'S FAMILY WOULD BE OUT A 5:51:28PM HUNDRED GRAND OR MORE. 5:51:30PM MOTION TO ASK STAFF TO REPORT BACK ON DECEMBER 19 AS TO THE 5:51:34PM POSSIBILITY OF THE CITY LEVYING FINES AND/OR CONDEMNING THE 5:51:38PM JACKSON HOUSE PROPERTY WITH THE PURPOSE OF TAKING IT OVER 5:51:41PM BEFORE A STORM DESTROYS IT. 5:51:43PM ONCE THE CITY HAS POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY, THE CITY WOULD 5:51:45PM THEN WORK WITH USF, THE HISTORY CENTER, AND THE JACKSON 5:51:48PM HOUSE FOUNDATION TO RENOVATE AND REBUILD THE STRUCTURE. 5:51:51PM AND WE WILL INVITE THE JACKSON HOUSE FOUNDATION TO PRESENT 5:51:55PM THEIR RENOVATION PLAN AT THE SAME TIME. 5:51:58PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION. 5:52:00PM SECOND FROM COUNCIL MEMBER CLENDENIN. 5:52:03PM ALL IN FAVOR? 5:52:03PM AYE. 5:52:05PM ANY OPPOSED? 5:52:06PM >> NAY. 5:52:07PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: I'M OKAY WITH IT FOR NOW. 5:52:10PM >>THE CLERK: MOTION CARRIED WITH VIERA VOTING NO AND MIRANDA 5:52:14PM BEING ABSENT AT VOTE. 5:52:16PM >>BILL CARLSON: COUNCIL MEMBER HENDERSON, IF YOU CAN HELP US 5:52:18PM TO GET THEM TO COME FOR RENOVATION PLAN, YOU'LL BE MY HERO. 5:52:34PM >> [INAUDIBLE] 5:52:38PM >>LUIS VIERA: MY SON HAS A PLAY AT 6:30. 5:52:41PM >>GWEN HENDERSON: MOTION TO RECEIVE AND FILE. 5:52:47PM >> [INAUDIBLE] 5:52:58PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE A SHORT -- LIMIT TO 5:53:03PM FIVE MINUTES OR TEN MINUTES CEREMONIAL. 5:53:06PM IF YOU WANT TO DO A TIME CERTAIN, FIRST THING AFTER LUNCH. 5:53:09PM >>BILL CARLSON: 1:30 TIME CERTAIN. 5:53:12PM >>GUIDO MANISCALCO: WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. 5:53:13PM ALL IN FAVOR? 5:53:14PM AYE. 5:53:15PM >>MARTIN SHELBY: I HAVE SOMETHING THAT I'VE BEEN ASKED TO 5:53:18PM RELAY TO YOU. 5:53:20PM BECAUSE OF THE STORMS, WE HAD SEVERAL NIGHT MEETINGS. 5:53:24PM WE HAD TWO NIGHT MEETINGS CANCELED. 5:53:26PM AND NOW PER THE CODE THOSE ITEMS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO LET'S 5:53:33PM SAY NEXT WEEK'S MEETING AND ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES MOVED TO THE 5:53:39PM ONE -- 14th IS NEXT WEEK AND THEN THE 21st BECAUSE OF 5:53:44PM THE HOLIDAY. 5:53:45PM BASICALLY WHERE WE STAND NOW IS IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN NEXT 5:53:50PM WEEK'S AGENDA COMES OUT ON FRIDAY, YOU WILL SEE FOR NEXT 5:53:54PM THURSDAY NIGHT 15 ITEMS ON THE AGENDA. 5:54:00PM THE WAY IT'S GOING TO BE STACKED IS THE ITEMS THAT WERE 5:54:03PM CONTINUED FROM OCTOBER WILL BE FIRST ON THE AGENDA BECAUSE 5:54:06PM THOSE PEOPLE ARE ALREADY A MONTH BEHIND. 5:54:10PM I'M GOING TO ASK -- WE'LL FIND OUT WHAT CAN BE CONTINUED. 5:54:13PM COUNCIL MAY WANT TO CONTEMPLATE GIVING THE PEOPLE UP FRONT 5:54:17PM TO ASK FOR CONTINUANCES WITHOUT PENALTY. 5:54:19PM I'M JUST ASKING YOU TO BE PREPARED. 5:54:21PM I BELIEVE IT MIGHT EVEN BE ACTUALLY MORE THAN 15 ON THE 5:54:25PM AGENDA BECAUSE YOU'LL HAVE SOME THAT MIGHT BE CONTINUED OR 5:54:28PM ASKING FOR CONTINUANCES ALREADY. 5:54:33PM >>THE CLERK: 19 AND ONE NOT GOING TO BE HEARD, MISNOTICE, 5:54:37PM
