WALK YOU THROUGH THE REPORT AND WHERE WE'RE AT WITH THIS MASTER PLAN, AS WELL AS THE TRIANGLE DISTRICT, WHICH YOU'RE ALSO FAMILIAR WITH. JUST A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND. UM THIS MASTER PLAN WAS FUNDED WITH THE D E O GRANT FUNDING, SO WE USED THAT THAT GRANT FRAMEWORK TO ORGANIZE THE REPORT AS WELL. SO YOU'LL SEE SOME OF THE CHILLS IT GO. MY GRAPHICS ARE A LITTLE FUNNY, NOT SURE WHY THAT'S HAPPENING. SO UNFORTUNATELY, YOU CAN'T SEE THAT GRAPHIC VERY WELL. BUT THE STUDY AREA ENCLOSED ROUGHLY ALONG FEDERAL HIGHWAY FROM ST LUCIE CRESCENT DOWN TO THE DIXIE HIGHWAY, UM, CUT OFF DOWN THERE AT THE SOUTH END. SO WE CAPTURE A LOT OF OUR IMPORTANT INTERSECTIONS LIKE CANADA HIGHWAY IN US. ONE UM PUMP CITY ROAD. THE OTHER STUDY AREA, WHICH I BRIEFLY MENTIONED WITH THE TRIANGLE STUDY AREA, AND THAT'S A MASTER PLAN EFFORT THAT IS, UM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF STEWART AND THE C R, RIGHT. WE'RE ALSO GOING TO BE LOOKING AT US ONE IN FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADJACENT TO THAT AREA
[00:45:07]
THAT IS COLORED AND GOLD. BLACK GOLD COLOR. IT'S YOU. MASTER PLANS ENVISIONING EFFORTS, WE WERE ABLE TO ALIGN THEIR OUTREACH, WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION OF ANY MASTER PLAN EFFORT. UM AND WE'RE PRESENTING TODAY. THE DRAFT REPORT FOR THE U. S. ONE FEDERAL HIGHWAY STUDY. AND THEN THE TRIANGLE DISTRICT WILL FOLLOW IN JUNE AND JULY, SO ON THE LOOKOUT. AS I MENTIONED THE PUBLIC INPUT IS THE FOUNDATION OF ANY GOOD MASTER PLAN STUDY. WE HAD IN GROUP INTERVIEWS WITH 28 29 INDIVIDUALS. IN ADDITION TO INDIVIDUAL IN INTERVIEWS WITH 21, ADDITIONAL AND INDIVIDUALS. ON, BUT WE HAD A PUBLIC INPUT SURVEY WITH 737 RESPONSES AGAIN, INCREDIBLY PLEASED WITH THAT RESPONSE FOR CITY, STUART. THAT'S JUST REALLY SPEAKS TO YOU. HOW DEDICATED ARE CITIZENS ARE TO ENGAGING IN THE PLACE WHERE THEY LIVE? JUST NOT EVERYWHERE. SO IT'S REALLY WONDERFUL. UM, INSIDE THE REPORT. WE RUN THROUGH A LOT OF THE FINDINGS. WE SHOW THEM TO YOU, GRAPHICALLY. UM SO ALL THAT INFORMATION IS THERE FOR YOU TO DIGEST ONE OF THE IMPORTANT THEMES THAT CAME OUT OF THAT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT STUDY? WAS THE IMPORTANCE OF ADDRESSING TRAFFIC, NOT JUST BECAUSE IT'S NOT FUN TO BE IN, BUT IT AFFECTS THE APPEARANCE OF US ONE. IT'S OUR GATEWAY TO THE CITY OF STUART ARE DOWNTOWN DISTRICT. ON DITZ EFFECTS. THE BUSINESSES THAT FACE US ONE. UM AND THAT APPEARANCE THE APPEARANCE. WHAT'S THE MAIN DISADVANTAGE OF THE CORRIDOR? IT'S THE APPEARANCE RIGHT NOW.THAT WAS THE PERCEPTION ON BUT TRAFFIC WAS CORRELATED TO THAT. WE ALSO LOOKED AT WHAT USES. WE ASKED THE CITIZENS ON THOSE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE SURVEY. WHAT USES YOU COULD SEE RESTAURANTS RETAIL A LOT OF THE, UM USES AND DESIRED. UM. MIX OF USES THAT YOU KIND OF WOULD EXPECT IN A SURVEY RESPONSE LIKE THIS, BUT ONE OF THE UNIQUE WORDS THAT POPPED OUT TO US WAS FAMILY. IT'S STUART IS A FAMILY ORIENTED COMMUNITY AND THAT YOU KNOW THAT SMALL TOWN CHARM WAS ALSO TALKING ABOUT TIME BACK TO THE FACT THAT FAMILY'S HEIR HERE, AND THAT'S WHERE THAT'S A PART OF OUR IDENTITY. THAT'S SOMETHING UNIQUE TO STUART. IT'S NOT A WORD THAT YOU WOULD ALWAYS SEE IN ONE OF THESE WORD CLOUDS. HOUSING WAS NOT SOMETHING THAT SOME PEOPLE IN THE SURVEYS DID NOT WANT HOUSING. BUT WHEN WE ASKED TO DIG IN A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHAT KIND OF USES WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE? YOU'LL NOTICE THAT HOUSES AND HOUSING WORDS ARE IN THAT MIX, SO THERE'S A DESIRE TO LIVE CLOSER TO DOWNTOWN. THERE'S A DESIRE TO SEE SOME OF THOSE USES REFLECTED IN OUR US ONE CORRIDOR. AND THEN THERE'S THAT WORD FAMILY AGAIN. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT HOW PEOPLE INTERACT WITH US ONE AND THE COMFORT LEVEL AND THE SAFETY THAT PEOPLE FEEL WHEN THEY CROSS US, JUAN AND ENGAGE WITH THE RIGHT OF WAY. THIS IS A QUESTION WHEN WE SWITCH OF THESE CROSSWALKS, WOULD YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE CROSSING ON US ONE. THE EXISTING CONDITION ALL THE WAY TO A LANE REDUCTION.
AND THE FINE FOR THE BIG WINNER HERE WAS TALKING ABOUT AN ELEVATED TEXTURED CROSSWALK WITH MEDIAN REFUGE AND ENHANCED LIGHTING. SO THIS IS THE COMFORT LEVEL THAT MOST PEOPLE.
IDENTIFY WITH IS AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE FROM THE SURVEY RESPONSES. WE ALSO CONDUCTED A WALKING TOUR AND ENVISIONING WORKSHOP WE HAD OVER 50 PARTICIPANTS AGAIN A WONDERFUL RESPONSE FROM THE COMMUNITY. WE GOT WONDERFUL FEEDBACK THAT WE. SUMMARIZE AND PUT INTO THIS REPORT IS THE FOUNDATION OF ALL OUR RECOMMENDATIONS. WE ALSO WITH THE ASSISTANCE FROM THE CITY OF STEWART AND MICHELLE JET, THE JS SPECIALISTS ON STOCKS. DEVELOPED SERIOUS HAVE MAPS THAT HELPED TO YOU ILLUSTRATE SOME OF THE ECONOMIC BACKGROUND AND SOME OF THE SAFETY BACKGROUND. THIS MAP RIGHT HERE IS PARTICULARLY INTERESTING BECAUSE IT COMPARES THE. ASSESSED LAND VALUES, ACCORDING TO THE PROPERTY PRESSURE A FRASER COMPARED TO THE LAND ABOUT THE IMPROVED VALUE. SO, IN ESSENCE, THE DARKER THE COLOR, THE MORE THE VALUE OF THAT PROPERTY IS COMING FROM THE LAND AND NOT THE IMPROVEMENTS ON TOP OF IT, WHICH CAN INDICATE PROPERTIES THAT ARE RIGHT FOR REDEVELOPMENT. CAN WE HAVE A FUNNY MAP HAPPENING? BUT. WE ALSO TOOK EXTENSIVE WALKING TOURS OURSELVES TO DOCUMENT THE CONTEXT AND. YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE RESOUNDING OBSERVATIONS, THE AMOUNT OF ASPHALT THAT ISN'T USED ISN'T USED FOR PARKING. IT'S NOT USED FOR STORMWATER. IT'S NOT SERVING
[00:50:02]
THE PURPOSES OF THOSE BUSINESSES BECAUSE AGAIN. WE'RE SEEING SOME VACANCIES ALONG THERE. UM IT'S JUST A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF UNDERUTILIZED LAND FACING US ONE. THAT DOESN'T FALL IN LINE WITH THAT SMALL TOWN FAMILY OR INTO COMMUNITY THAT WE ARE. HE NOTED THE USERS THAT ARE ALONG US, JUAN WE'VE GOT BICYCLIST PEOPLE IN WHEELCHAIRS. WE'VE GOT TRANSIT USERS. AND THEN SADLY, THERE ARE MEMORY OUT THERE TODAY OF THE, UM, FATALITIES OUT THERE AND SO AGAIN WITH THE HELP FROM. MICHELLE AND STAFFED. IT PRODUCED THESE MAPS FOR US, INDICATING THE NUMBER OF CRASHES OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS.SO THIS IS FROM DECEMBER 2020. FOR DECEMBER 2010 TO DECEMBER 2020 EACH OF THESE AIR THE CRASHES AND THAT HEAT MAP BEHIND EACH ONE OF THESE ICONS. SHOWS YOU THE BACKGROUND OF THE TOTAL ACTS. ACCIDENTS IN THAT AREA ON EACH ICON IS THE LOCATION OF ONE OF THESE INCIDENTS. IF YOU NOTICE THERE IS A LOT OF. ACTIVITY AT THE CROSSWALKS AND AT THE INTERSECTIONS. WHEN YOU GO TO THE INTERSECTIONS, IT'S NOT A BIG STRETCH TO UNDERSTAND WHY THAT'S HAPPENING. THERE'S SOME CROSSWALKS THAT HAVE NO MARKINGS WHATSOEVER. AND WHERE YOU DO HAVE SOME MARKINGS. THE PAINT IS WORN OFF. HIS FEW. WHERE NONE PEDESTRIAN ISLANDS.
THERE'S NO BARRIER BETWEEN THE SIDEWALK AND, UM, THE VEHICLE TRAFFIC SO. AGAIN. IT'S NOT A SURPRISE TO SEE THOSE NUMBERS. BUT YOU KNOW NO. NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THOSE KINDS OF NUMBERS ON THEIR CORRIDOR. WITH ALL THAT INFORMATION. WE TOOK A LOOK AT A COUPLE OF REDEVELOPMENT SITES AND DEVELOPED CONCEPTS FOR WHAT REDEVELOPMENT COULD LOOK LIKE WHERE IT WOULD ALIGN BETTER WITH THE COMMUNITY VISION AND ADDRESS SOME OF THE SAFETY CONCERNS OUT THERE. UM, THESE CONCEPTS ARE JUST ONE OF MANY POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS THAT CAN BE LAID OUT ON THESE SITES. BUT THEY DO INDICATE SOME PRINCIPLES. THAT WOULD BE AFFABLE TO THESE SITES OR OTHER SITES. ON WHAT REDEVELOPMENT COULD LOOK LIKE. ONE OF THE THIS IS THE PUBLIC'S PARCEL. I'M SURE WE'RE ALL FAMILIAR WITH IT WITH US. ONE FEDERAL HIGHWAY INTERSECTING WITH CANDOR TO THE SOUTH THERE. AND THEN HIGHLIGHTED IN THAT CIRCLE.
WE HAVE PALM CITY ROAD. PALM CITY ROAD HAS A BACK TO FRONT ISSUE TODAY. SO RIGHT NOW, THE BACK OF PUBLIX IS FACING. EVERYONE ON THE FRONT AND BUILDINGS ARE LIKE PEOPLE. YOU DON'T SET UP THE DINNER TABLE SO THAT MY BACK IS FACING YOU. WE WANT TO HAVE FACE TO FACE RELATIONSHIP. BUILDINGS ARE THE SAME WAY BUILDINGS HAVE FRONTS AND BUILDINGS HAVE BACKS. ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT, UM, IS OUT THERE TODAY IS THAT BACK TO FRONT ISSUE WHO WANTED TO LOOK AT HOW YOU WOULD ADDRESS THAT OR HOW THAT COULD BE ADDRESSED. WE ALSO HAVE SOME EXISTING STREET NETWORKS AND EXISTING, UH, PATHS OF TRAVEL. YOU KNOW, THROUGH THIS THIS PLAZA. I THINK THAT THERE ARE MANY INDIVIDUALS WHO USED THIS PAUSES A CUT THROUGH FOR TRAFFIC. SO LET'S LOOK AT WHERE THOSE GOAT PATHS ARE. WHERE'S THE EXISTING NETWORK? AND HOW CAN WE TIE INTO THAT? WE ALSO DOCUMENTED THE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES OUT THERE. I ACTUALLY FOUND PARKING LOTS ON THIS THIS LOT THAT I DIDN'T KNOW. WERE THERE THE MINUTES JUST HOW MUCH PARKING SPACES DEVOTED THAT COMMERCIAL USE. SO THIS IS A REDEVELOPMENT CONCEPT AGAIN, ONE OF MANY POTENTIAL CONCEPTS. WE LOOK AT HOW WE CAN GET SOME CONTINUOUS PATHS A TIE INTO THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD AND RECLAIM THE SITE AS AN EXTENSION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND AN EXTENSION. OF THE CITY OF STUART. NOT AS AN ISOLATED ELEMENT. WE, UM, CREATED A FRONT TO FRONT SITUATION ALONG PALM CITY ROAD. AND A NETWORK OF STREETS WITHIN THE LOT. THIS IS, YOU KNOW, UM, ACTUALLY, FIVE ACRES. IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN FIVE ACRES THIS PARCEL, SO THERE'S A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE. STREETS WITHIN A REDEVELOPMENT CONCEPT.
WHEN YOU HAVE A SCALE OF THAT SIZE YES. UHH! SEE THAT YOU. ALSO ARE LOOKING AT THE ACROSS THE STREET AT THE SEA COAST PLAZA. YES, YES, THAT'S TO COME, AND I AM PLEASE INTERRUPT ME AT ANY POINT. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO BE RESPECTFUL OF YOUR TIME. SO MOVING THROUGH THIS SOMEWHAT FAST. BUT PLEASE ASK ME TO SLOW DOWN IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS WE ILLUSTRATE WHAT
[00:55:06]
THAT COULD LOOK LIKE. THE OTHER SITE THAT WE INDICATE CEM CEM CONCEPTS FOR ARE THE SEA COAST AND THE MAYFAIR SITE, NOTING THAT SEACOAST ISN'T ATTRACTIVE. BUILDING IT Z NOW HISTORIC AND HAS A LOT OF INTERESTING ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS TO IT. WE WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT. WE ALSO HAVE IMPROVED STREETS ALREADY SURROUNDING THESE TWO SITES. WE STILL HAVE THE ACT A LOT OF PARKING SEACOAST HAS SOME BEAUTIFUL, MATURE TREES, BUT THERE'S STILL A LOT OF SPACE DEVOTED TO ASPHALT AND PARKING, AND YOU CAN SEE FROM THESE AERIALS. MUCH OF ITS EMPTY AND IF YOU GO OUT THERE TODAY, AND PREVIOUS PARKING STUDIES SHOW, YOU KNOW, THIS IS A TREND THAT PREDATES THE COVE ID ENVIRONMENT. WE ALSO HAVE AN UNIMPROVED RIGHT AWAY. THAT SPLITS THE TWO PARCELS. I MEAN, IT'S IMPROVED. I'M SORRY, BUT NOT IMPROVED WITH A COMPLETE STREETS TREATMENT. AND THE BUILDINGS THERE STAT REALLY FAR BACK, SO THERE'S NOTHING TO FRAME THE CONTEXT OF THIS SITE ON ON THE STREET. UM. SO WE TOOK A LOOK AT THE SITE. WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE EXISTING BEAUTIFUL OLD GROWTH TREES CREATED STREETS AND ORGANIZED THE BUILDINGS. THE REDEVELOPMENT AROUND KEEPING IMPORTANT EXISTING BUILDINGS ARE EXISTING BUILDINGS THAT ALREADY FRONT THE STREETS. UM. AND LOOKED AT HOW THIS COULD BE AN IMPROVED COMPLETE STREET NETWORK BETWEEN THE TWO AND THIS IS AN ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT A PLAZA THAT REALLY CELEBRATES. THE SEACOAST BUILDING COULD LOOK LIKE. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE.THIS IS AN EXAMPLE FROM SOUTH MIAMI, AND IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN THE REPORT FOR REFERENCE. BUT I STILL THOUGHT IT WAS A VALUABLE EXAMPLE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT WHAT'S DESCRIBED IN THE SLIDES.
I JUST WENT OVER FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT CONCEPTS, BUT ALSO TO INTRODUCE LOOK AT WHAT WE CAN DO WITHIN THE RIGHT OF WAY. TO IMPROVE THE CONTEXT. SO THIS IS SOUTH MIAMI AND THAT SIX LEHNER BEHIND IS US ONE. THAT'S FEDERAL HIGHWAY. AND THIS IS A STREET THAT COMES OFF OF, UM I'M OFF OF THAT INTERSECTION. AND. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE TODAY. SO THIS THAT BUILDING ON THE RIGHT THERE IS THE IS ACTUALLY, IF YOU GO BACK AND FORTH, IT'S ACTUALLY TAKEN FROM THE OPPOSITE ANGLE, BUT THAT BLUE BUILDING ON THE CORNER THAT ONE YET. IS THE SAME IS THAT. ONE UM AND SO YOU CAN SEE THE HUGE DIFFERENCE THAT SHADE TREES, LARGE SIDEWALKS CAN DO TO ACTIVATE A STREET PROJECT. THE PEDESTRIANS. AND BENEFIT THE LOCAL BUSINESSES BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT HOW DO WE MAKE THINGS BEAUTIFUL? HOW DO WE MAKE THE QUARTER ACTIVATED WITH USES THAT WE DESIRE? AND, UM. AND WITH, YOU KNOW, A VIBRANT COMMUNITY. SO IN THE RIGHT OF WAY OF FEDERAL HIGHWAY, WE TOOK IT TO EXAMPLES. ONE THAT'S NORTH OF CANADA HIGHWAY WHERE YOU HAVE A CONSTRAINT CONDITION. UM YOU HAVE EXISTING BUILDINGS THAT DO COME UP CLOSE TO THE RIGHT OF WAY. UM AND. WE DON'T HAVE ANY SPACE ANY BIG OVER WITHIN THOSE EXISTING TRAVEL LANDS TO, UM. CREATE MORE SPACE. SO HOW? WHEN WE'RE CONSTRAINED ALONG FEDERAL HIGHWAY. WE RECOMMEND WORKING IN AN INCREMENTAL FASHION TO INTRODUCE NEW SHADE TREES. WITH A C R A PROGRAM OF LISTED IN THE RECOMMENDATIONS. BRINGING THE EXISTING LIGHTING THAT'S OUT THERE TODAY, MUCH OF WHICH INTERJECTS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SIDEWALK. PARTNERING WITH FDA, T AND THE C R RATED FIND PROGRAMS TO MOVE THAT LIGHTING OUTSIDE OF THE RIGHT OF WAY AND INTO ADJACENT PROPERTY SO THAT YOU CAN HAVE THE SEVEN FT.
CLEAR. SIDEWALK. UM WE SHOULD BE ILLUSTRATE THE PEDESTRIAN SCALE LIGHTING IN ADDITION TO MORE COBRA HEAD LIGHTING THAT THAT EXISTS OUT THERE TODAY AND A INCREMENTAL APPROACH TO GET MORE SHADE TREES WHERE, UM WHERE THERE'S OPPORTUNITIES TO DO SO. THE OTHER CONDITION THAT EXISTS ON FEDERAL HIGHWAY AND IT'S MORE TYPICAL SOUTH OF CANADA HIGHWAY. WE'RE ON FEDERAL HIGHWAY, WHICH IS MORE TYPICAL SOUTH OF CANADA HIGHWAY. IS PROPERTIES THAT ARE EITHER VACANT OR THE BUILDING'S AIR FAR BACK FROM THE STREET. AND SO IN THIS CASE, WE'VE ILLUSTRATED WHAT CAN HAPPEN AS REDEVELOPMENT OCCURS, AND IN THIS CASE, WE RECORD WE RECOMMEND PROVIDING A AND FOOT. PLANTING STRIP WITH SHADE TREES. THIS CREATES A NATURAL BARRIER
[01:00:03]
FOR PEDESTRIANS. IT ALSO RESPECTS FDA DUTIES REQUIREMENTS ABOUT SETTING BACK FOR TREES. AND IT ALSO REPLACES WHAT IS TODAATY. IN MOST CASES, ASPHALT WITH AN OPPORTUNITY FOR LANDSCAPING, WHICH HELPS OUR STORMWATER RESPONSES. AND IT ALSO, UM. NOT, YOU KNOW, IT LOOKS ATTRACTIVE AND AGAIN. THERE WAS NOTHING THAT WAS MORE CLEAR IN THE PUBLIC RESPONSE IS THAT THE DESIRE FOR MORE LANDSCAPING AND A MORE ATTRACTIVE CORRIDOR? ON THE OUTSIDE OF THAT TEMPLE. IT'S PLANTING STRIP WE ILLUSTRATED 10 FT SIDEWALK. ON DAT WOULD BE AT A AT A MINIMUM. A 10 FT. SIDEWALK IS ENOUGH THAT WE CAN PROVIDE A BIKE FACILITY. TODAY.THERE'S NO BIKE FACILITIES ON THIS STRETCH OF US. ONE UM AND A PEDESTRIAN, UM, EXPERIENCE, SO THAT WOULD BE A SHARED USE PATH. UM AND THEN REDEVELOPMENT HAPPENING OUTSIDE OF THAT, UM, ON THE RIGHT WHEEL. THERE'S AN ILLUSTRATION OF A TOWNHOUSE OR THREE STORY TOWNHOUSE. UM THAT COULD BE AN EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING THAT COULD OCCUR ON ON A FEDERAL HIGHWAY IN STUART IN THIS THIS REGION THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. AND THEN ON THE OTHER END IS ACTUALLY AN EXISTING OFFICE COMPLEX WERE REAL A STRAIGHT THAT THE PARKING COULD BE RECONFIGURED TOL ACCOMMODATE A NEW. THE NEW, UH SIDEWALK AND SHADE TREES. THAT'S AN ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT THAT COULD FEEL LIKE AT THE SIDEWALK LEVEL. GRAPHIC LOOKS FUNNY. IN HERE. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT, UM. THE IMPORTANCE OF THOSE CROSSWALKS AND INTERSECTIONS WHERE WE SAW SO MANY CRASHES. IT'S IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER THE FACT THAT. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT TRAFFIC AND THE IMPACT OF TRAFFIC ON OUR COMMUNITY. WE CAN'T LOOSE IN OUR BELTS, TOL LAUFER MORE TRAFFIC TO MOVE FASTER. FIRST OF ALL, IT'S LIKE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT BY LOOSENING YOUR BELT. IT DOESN'T WORK. SO THE BEST WAY TO MOVE FORWARD IS TO LOOK AT OTHER CONNECTIONS IN THE COMMUNITY ON BEES ARE SOME OF THOSE THAT ARE IDENTIFIED AND THEN ALSO IMPROVING THE CONFIGURATION OF THESE CONNECTIONS. SO IS. EACH ONE OF THESE NEED TO BE MAINTAINED WITH THEIR MANEUVERABILITY TO GO THROUGH THEM. BUT THEY COULD BE REORIENTED SO THAT PEDESTRIAN SAFETY IS PUT AT A PARAMOUNT AND NOT JUST THE EASE OF VEHICLES GOING THROUGH THEM.
WE RECOMMEND IN THE STUDY THAT EACH OF THESE INTERSECTIONS. STUDIED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH F D O T ON BE STUDIED TOGETHER BECAUSE THEY WORK TOGETHER AS A AS A NETWORK. AND THIS IS AN ILLUSTRATION. IF SOME OF YOU WERE AT THE. THE WALKING TOUR. YOU MAY BE FAMILIAR WITH THIS.
WE HAVE THIS UP ON A POSTER AND TALKING ABOUT MITIGATING TRAFFIC VOLUMES AND NOT JUST THE WAY IT LOOKS AND FEELS. WE'VE GOTTO. UM, LOOK AT THESE WAYS OF PROMOTING ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION SUCH AS MARTY, UM, ALLOWING FOR SAFER CONDITIONS FOR PEDESTRIANS AND, UM. AND THE CYCLISTS ON THIS ROADWAY. THEY'RE ALREADY THERE. AND SO WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE MEANS OF TRAVELERS SAFER AND THOSE AIR TICKETS TO CREATING MORE VIABILITY WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. THAT'S A CONCEPT CALLED TRAFFIC EVAPORATION. WHERE EACH OF THESE DIFFERENT, UM MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION WILL HELP TO REDUCE THE VOLUME OF TRAFFIC THAT'S OUT THERE. IS THERE. SOME ILLUSTRATIONS OF WHAT THE CROSSWALK IMPROVEMENTS CAN BE LOOKED AND LOOKED LIKE BOTH NEAR TERM RECOMMENDATIONS AND LONG TERM RECOMMENDATIONS AGAIN WITH PARTNERSHIP WITH AFTER YOU, T. UM THE CITY. UM, WE RECOMMEND SOME INVESTMENT IN CREATING A SAFER CONDITION OUT THERE. UM THIS IS REALLY THREE PRONGS WHAT THEY RECOMMENDATIONS OUT OF THIS VISION PLANNING OUR IS THE INVESTMENT AND EXISTING PROPERTIES BY CREATING A TREE AND PHIL PROGRAM WHERE WE CAN INFILL SHADE TREES INTO PRIVATE PROPERTY ADJACENT TO THE RIGHT OF WAY. WHERE UM, THE SIERRA. I CAN WORK WITH PROPERTY OWNERS TO ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE, UM GAPS IN OUR SHADE TREE. FABRIC OF WHICH THERE ARE MANY ON US ONE. ON BEEN LEVERAGING THE EXISTING GRANT IMPROVEMENT GRANT PROGRAM FOR IMPROVING PROPERTIES ALONG FEDERAL HIGHWAY DELINEATING SPACE WITH IMPROVED FENCES AND SIGN EGE. THERE COULD BE AN INCREMENTAL APPROACH TO WHAT'S OUT THERE TODAY. AND THEN AS REDEVELOPMENT HAPPENS, IMPROVING THE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS BY DEFINING WHAT THE THOROUGHFARE THAT RIGHT OF
[01:05:03]
WAY SHOULD LOOK LIKE FOR UM, NEW PROPERTIES IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS. THEN TODAY WE HAVE AN URBAN HIGHWAY ZONING DISTRICT, WHICH IS APPLIED TOO MUCH OF THIS DISTRICT. THAT COULD BE IMPROVED. TOL REFLECT THE DESIRED STREET SECTION AND, UM, IMPROVED THE SCRIP. SHIN'S. ABOUT WHAT THE, UM INTENTION OF THAT DISTRICT IS. WE ACTED TO RECOMMEND A EVALUATION OF THE FUTURE LAND USE AND ZONING WHERE YOU HAVE PROPERTIES THAT FACE THE DOWNTOWN FUTURE LAND USE. WHERE TODAY THEIR COMMERCIAL. ON DUE TO REALIGN THOSE PRIORITIES WITH WHERE THE COMMUNITY WANTS TO GO. BASED OFF OF THE VISIONING THAT WE.WE SAW OUT THERE IN OUR PUBLIC OUTREACH. AND, OF COURSE, ROOM COORDINATING WITH F D A. T E A Z. THEY DO A TRIPLE OUR PROJECT THAT'S COMING DOWN THE PIKE. UM THAT'S A RE SURFEIT, RESURFACING RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION PROJECT. TO COORDINATE WHERE WE CAN RELOCATE THOSE SIDE. WELL THOSE LIGHTS TO THE BACK OF SIDE WALL. WE ALSO WANT TO THE LIGHTING, ADDING ADDITIONAL LIGHTING IS NOT SOMETHING THAT'S TYPICALLY PART OF TRIPLE ARE SO WORKING WITH, UM F D A T ON HOW WE CAN GET THE CITY OF STUART. ON A PROGRAM TO EVALUATE THE LIGHTING THAT'S OUT THERE TODAY. UM AND REMOVE ABANDONED DRIVEWAYS, AND WE ALSO RECOMMEND THE REMOVAL OF THE STAMPED CONCRETE BECAUSE THAT, UM, CREATES TOO MANY CHALLENGES FOR THOSE ON WHEELS, BOTH WHEELCHAIRS AND ON BIKES. UM, WE ALSO RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY EXPAND THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS ON TRANSIT SHELTERS SO THAT THEY INCLUDE THE MARTY AS WELL. YOU HAVEN'T EXCELLENT REPORT. OUTLINING FUNDING FOR TRANSIT SHELTERS WITHIN THE MICRO TRANSIT SYSTEM, AND WE NEED TONTO. LOOK AT HOW WE CAN GET THE MARTY TRANSIT TO THAT SAME LEVEL OF. SERVICE ASSED FAR AS TRANSIT SHELTERS. UM AND PRIORITIZING THE PEDESTRIAN SAFETY AND TRAFFIC AT THOSE INTERSECTIONS IN PARTICULAR. UM AND WE WILL.
WE'RE WORKING WITH CITY STAFF. AND AFTER YOUR TEA TO HELP, COURTNEY, UM. WHAT THE RECOMMENDED ACTIONS ARE ON THESE. UM BUT WE ARE HOPING THAT YOU, UM. YOU UNDERSTAND AND SUPPORT THOSE THAT DIRECTION AND WE WILL KEEP WORKING ON THAT. SO IF THAT'S IT FOR ME, I KNOW I WENT THROUGH SOME OF THIS REALLY FAST TODAY WE'RE SHOWING YOU THE DRAFT REPORT. WE'D LIKE TO TURN THIS BACK INTO D O D E O A T END OF THIS MONTH. FOR THEIR FINAL REVIEW. AND UM, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR ME, I'M HAPPY TO ADDRESS THEM, MR DONALDSON QUESTION, BUT THE TIMELINE WAS ONE QUESTION OF THAT. CONCERNED ABOUT US TRYING TO MOVE THIS FORWARD? YES. ALRIGHT DONALD? YES. SO THE CRASHED DATA ALONG THAT WAS FROM 10 4020. YES, OKAY. DID DID YOU DO ANY TRAFFIC COUNTS OF READING THROUGH? THERE WAS A LOT OF IT WAS A LOT OF SMALL DETAIL, AND I THINK I NEED A LARGE PRINT VERSION. UM THEY WERE USED AFTER A TEASE DATA. THE PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DATA TO LOOK AT THEIR TRAFFIC COUNTS OF THIS. THIS SLIDE HERE ACTUALLY ILLUSTRATES, UM, THE TRAFFIC COUNTS THAT THEY HAVE TODAY. THIS IS NOT A FULL BLOWN TRAFFIC STUDY. BUT IT DOES GIVE YOU A SENSE OF THE VEHICLES PER DAY THAT AIR OUT THEIR PALM CITY ROADS GETTING 15,000 LESS THAN 19,000 DAY. BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE BOTTOM MISS. WE KNOW WHAT THE TOP HIGH END IS.
RIGHT. EXACTLY YEAH, OKAY. UM AND I COULD WEAKEN, DIG INTO THAT INFORMATION AND ABSOLUTELY FOR THAT TO YOU. WHAT THE NUMBER I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO KNOW IS AND I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE IT SO. IS THE NUMBER OF CARS THAT EXIT. AH US ONE ON THE HEART RIGHT ONTO PALM CITY, AND NEXT I'D LIKE TO KNOW THE SPEED THAT THEY'RE GOING WHILE THEY'RE EXITING. WHICH I KNOW WE CAN DO THAT WITH OUR TRAFFIC COUNTERS. BUT IT DEFINITELY WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE WHEN YOU SHOWED THE MATH FOR SHOWS ALL THE TRAFFIC CRASHES AND YOU SEE YOU SEE A PALM CITY ROAD. YOU SEE HIM AT. CANTER AND US ONE AND THEN YOU SEE IT ACTUALLY BACK FURTHER WHERE THEY'RE STACKING UP. ENTERING THE LEFT HAND TURN LANE. IT LOOKS LIKE. THE ONE THAT SHOWS ALL ACCIDENTS. IT WAS JUST JUST LIKE OVERWHELMING. YOU CAN'T DISCERN ANYTHING FROM IT, BUT
[01:10:06]
THAT WAS A GOOD THAT'S A GOOD SLIDE. IS THE BALL. THEY GET TO GO THAT ONE. AND THEN AFTER WE DID YOU SEE THE BICYCLE CRASHES AND. AND IN THE FATALITIES AND I SEE AND TO BE HONEST, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT'S ALL THE HAPPY BUT I'M AMAZED THAT THAT'S THE ALL THE MORE FATALITIES. UM.I'VE BEEN A PEDESTRIAN BEEN ALMOST HIT MULTIPLE TIMES IN THAT CORRIDOR THERE, BUT IF YOU GO BACK TO THE ONE WITH ALL THE BICYCLES AND YOU SEE THE SAME SPOTS, AND THEN IF EVEN THE BICYCLES THAT HAS ONE UP THERE BY FRAZIER. OR BY POPPLETON CREEK, RATHER, AND THEN THE NEXT WITH ALL THE CARS. YOU CAN SEE RIGHT. THE NEXT 11 MORE NO, THE OTHER WAY. THERE WE GO, AND I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT THERE'S THAT CARS THAT ARE HAVING THE ACCIDENTS BY POPPLETON CREEK AND AT RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF SIMPSON TIME, PRACTICALLY UM NO, JUST. IT'S KIND OF TROUBLING TO REALIZE THERE'S THAT MANY ACCIDENTS, RIGHT? WE DID A SIMILAR WELL, WE'VE DONE A SIMILAR ANALYSIS FOR THE TRIANGLE AS WELL. AND SO THE BASE OF THE BRIDGE IS ANOTHER LOCATION. WHERE YOU SEE MORE OF THIS. THIS TREND CONTINUING TO, SO THAT'S SOMETHING THANK YOU. IT WAS VERY, VERY BODY WEIGHT. JUST GREAT PRESENTATION. GOOD JOB.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE DETAIL. GIVE US THE WIRE. I'M JUST A TECHNICAL QUESTION WAS THERE AND IT WAS THERE A REASON FOR USING THE COLOR OF THE TEXT IN THE WORD MAP? WAS THAT A SIGNIFIER OF ANYTHING IN THAT WORD CLOUD? OH, NO. DOESN'T SIGNIFY. JUST HIGHLIGHT JUST THE SIZE OF THE WORD INDICATES HOW OFTEN IT WAS USED. UM AND SO, BUT THE COLOR IS JUST THERE FOR VISUAL DISTINCTION. AND THEN UM, SO AS FAR AS JUST IMPLEMENTING SOME OF SOME OF THE. AT LEAST LIKE THE CROSSWALK, STRIKING SOME OF THOSE PEDESTRIAN INTERVENTIONS RIGHT ALREADY. ARE ANY OF THOSE POSSIBLE TO BE SORT OF RECOMMENDED AT DURING THE R R R. SO WHEN YOU GOT THE TRIPLE ARE REALLY JUST, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GONNA PAINT THOSE CROSSWALKS AGAIN. I MEAN, AT THE VERY LEAST, YOU KNOW THAT'S GONNA BE A DRAMATIC IMPROVEMENT BECAUSE WHAT THEY'RE ACTUALLY WENT TODAY. THERE'S SOME THAT ARE MISSING AND THEY'VE BEEN PAINTED, YOU KNOW, THEY'VE JUST WORN AWAY. YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE THEM ANYMORE. BUT WE'RE GOING TO STRIVE FOR MORE THAN THAT. AND OF COURSE, THAT I'M SURE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT MANY PEOPLE WOULD WANT MORE THAN THAT. UM BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THAT THERE IS AN INCENTIVE.
WITH A TRIPLE ARE TRYING TO REPHRASE THIS WITH A TRIPLE ARE, THERE COULD BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PARTNERING. DO YOU, UM, DOOM OR THAT, BUT IT WOULDN'T AND THERE'S AN ADVANTAGE TO WORKING WITH THAT. F DEITY SO THAT IT'S PART OF THAT CONSTRUCTION PROCESS AND PART OF THEIR BIDDING AND THEY'RE LETTING PROCESS. EXACTLY. UM BUT THE YOU KNOW THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ADDITIONAL WITH WITH THE LIGHTING. OR UM, YOU KNOW, ENHANCED CROSSWALKS, IF THERE ISN'T A PARTNERSHIP WITH, UM, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT, SO THAT'S JUST SOMETHING TONTO PUT INTO PLAY. UM YOU KNOW, THERE'S AN ADVANTAGE FOR WORKING WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY DOING CONSTRUCTION. IT MAKES IT EASIER FOR YOU KNOW THE COMMUNITY AND THEN ALSO, THERE'S A THERE'S A BENEFIT THAT IS PART OF THAT BIDDING PROCESS AND IT CONTRACTORS THAT THEY WOULD BE WORKING WITH ALREADY, UM, SO THAT THAT'S A BENEFIT TO THE CITY WHEN THEY.
THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ENHANCED WORK THERE. UM YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS LIGHTING GOES, THERE WERE, UM, WE'D LIKE TO GET ON THE PHONE AGAIN WITH HELEN JAMES, WHO IS THE PROJECT MANAGER FOR THIS? AND LOOK FOR HER ROCK RECOMMENDATIONS ON YOU KNOW WHAT ARE SOME OTHER SPECIFIC STUDIES THAT COULD BE DONE TO HELP? UM PRIORITIZE THE SEGMENT OF US ONE FOR ADDITIONAL PROJECTS. ONE OF THE DON'T KNOW IF I PUT THIS SLIDE IN THE BACK. BUT THIS SEGMENT OF FDA OF FEDERAL HIGHWAY ON US ONE ACTUALLY IS CLASSIFIED DIFFERENTLY THAN THE REST OF US ONE. I MEAN, IF YOU NOTICE THAT. MOST OF US ONE IN THE REST OF STEWART AND IN MARTIN COUNTY.
HAS 120 FT RIGHT OF WAY, AND THAT'S WHY YOU CAN FIT THE BIKE LANES ON THERE. A COUPLE OF OTHER FACILITIES, SOMETIMES WIDER SIDEWALKS. IN THE COUNTY. HERE. WE ONLY HAVE 100 FT.
RIGHT OF WAY. SO YOU'RE LIMITED NOT WAY AND THEN THE OTHER THING THAT WOULD POINT OUT IT'S NOT IN HERE. THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD POINT OUT IS, UM, THAT THE CONTEXT IS DIFFERENT.
AND, UM. AFTER YOU TEASE PRELIMINARY CONTEXT CLASSIFICATIONS. SO THEY HAVE THESE. DIFFERENT CLASSIFICATIONS THAT TELL YOU WHETHER OR NOT THAT ROAD IS A COMMERCIAL ROAD IF IT'S PART OF A URBAN FABRIC IF IT'S PART OF A RURAL CONTEXT AND. THIS
[01:15:04]
SEGMENT OF US ONE IS CLASSIFIED AS URBAN GENERAL, WHICH IS AGAIN ACTUALLY SOMETHING MORE CONSISTENT WITH, I THINK WHAT THE COMMUNITY HAS EXPRESSED HIS PART OF THE CITY OF STUART'S IDENTITY. IT'S FAMILY BASED. YOU'VE GOT RESIDENTIAL SMALL COMMERCIAL. ADJACENT TO EACH OTHER OR NEAR PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER, AND YOU KNOW THAT RELATIONSHIP. IS IT HELPFUL RELATIONSHIP BECAUSE AS THERE IS, AS THERE'S GROWTH OR AS THERE IS INCREASED DEMANDS ON THAT, RIGHT OF WAY OF A STRUCTURE ON THE NUMBER OF TRIPS. CLOSER YOU CAN GET WHERE PEOPLE WORK AND WHERE PEOPLE LIVE, THE LESS DEMAND YOU'LL HAVE ON THAT RIGHT OF WAY, AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AND IT'S AND IT'S A GREAT SIGN THAT FDA T ALREADY WITH THEIR PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS, SEES. BUT THIS SEGMENT OF US WANTS IS THAT CONTEXT ALREADY, YOU KNOW, SO WE NEED TO REALIGN A CITY. WE REALIGNING THE LAND USES. IN THAT CONTEXT TO WHAT'S ALREADY ON THE GROUND, AND YOU KNOW IT WILL ON LEE ENHANCE THE. THE IMPROVED CHARACTER, YOU KNOW, FOR THAT AREA. I'M JUST THINKING ABOUT THE IMMEDIATE LIKE SHORT TERM, YOU KNOW, LOOKING DOWN THE LINE AT THE FUTURE LAND USE, WHICH WE OUGHT TO DO. BUT IN THE. HIT THAT TRIPLE R. WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO? IS IT WORKING WITH THE MPO AND WITH YOU TO MAKE SURE WE CAN ADVOCATE. FOR THOSE, POTENTIALLY FOR THOSE PEDESTRIAN. ENHANCEMENTS IN CROSSWALKS WHILE THEY'RE DOING THAT. THERE ARE PARTICULAR STUDY INTERSECTION STUDIES THAT THAT COULD BE DONE ON BLIGHTING STUDIES THAT COULD BE DONE AND I'D BE WE PARTNERING WITH THE MPO. AND COORDINATING WITH AFTER YOUR TEA. YOU KNOW THEY CAN HELP TO POINT US IN THE DIRECTION OF WHAT IS THE RIGHT. UM THE RITES STUDY AND THE RIGHT. ASK WITHIN THAT, UM, WITHIN THE FDA T UNIVERSE, YOU KNOW, SO THAT'S SOMETHING TOO TO TAKE NOTE OF, UM WHAT I WOULD SAY ABOUT THE IMPROVED CROSSWALKS. UM WHAT IS ILLUSTRATED IS, UM, SOMETHING THAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING. OUTSIDE I KNOW IT'S HARD TO READ THOSE LITTLE NUMBERS, BUT THE TRAVEL LANDS THAT EXISTS OUT THERE TODAY ARE ALREADY BETWEEN 10 AND 11. FT. AND SO IF YOU KEEP ALL THE EXISTING STORM, WATER, YOUR CURVE AND GUTTER THERE, THERE'S NO SPACE WITHIN THEIR TO REDUCE THE TRAVEL LANES. IT'S THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU COULD, YOU KNOW, MAYBE STEAL A FEW FEET WOULD BE BY INVESTIGATING SOMETHING IN THE MEDIAN. UM SO WHAT WE'VE RECOMMENDED HERE IS ACTUALLY LOOKING AT YOUR LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS. AND REQUIRING THAT EXPANDED SIDEWALK ON BY PLANTING STRIP AS PART OF REDEVELOPMENT AS OCCURS, UM. THAT'S JUST SOMETHING I WANTED TO POINT OUT. IT IS. IT'S NOT INSIDE.THE RIGHT OF WAY WHEN IT COMES TO THE PROPOSED THE SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS. BLESS WHERE I GUESS. NO. WE'RE LOOKING AT IMPLEMENTATION WITH SOME SENSING FROM THE WHOLE COMMISSION IS APPEAR. I MEAN, I LOVE THE REPORT. YOU KNOW, AS AS FAR COMMISSIONER MYERS IMPLEMENTATION FROM THE MP ASIDE, UM. MR MCDONNELL AND I HAVE BOTH DISCUSSED WITH THE MPO ABOUT MOVING FORWARD IN OUR UPCOMING BUDGET CYCLE OF A STUDY OF THE. INTERSECTION OF CALM CITY ROAD AND US ONE AND STUDYING THAT INTERSECTION FOR SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS. PROBLEMAS MPO TAKES A LONG TIME. I THINK SOME OF THE STUFF HAS BEEN PROPOSED AT THE TRIPLE R.
DISCUSSIONS FOR F TIME. UM. JESSICA SAID. I DON'T KNOW HOW FAR WE'RE GONNA GET. THEY'RE GONNA. ONLY DO WHAT THEY'RE GONNA DO. BUT YOU KNOW IF. I'M VERY INTERESTED IN IMPLEMENTATION, AND ANYWAY POSSIBLE ARE THEIRS. PACIFIC PROPERTIES THAT YOU'D SUGGEST CHANGES WITH OUR FUTURE LAND USE LIKE THAT THE PUBLIC'S OR THE SEA COAST. WELL SO THAT THAT GOES A BIT BEYOND THIS. THIS THIS STUDY, UM. WHAT WE RECOMMEND IS AN ANALYSIS OF SOME OF THOSE PROPERTIES THERE. IT DOES SEEM TO BE A MISALIGNMENT BETWEEN SOME PROPERTIES AND WHERE WE MIGHT WANT TO INVESTIGATE WHAT THE FUTURE LAND USE. IS THERE. UM THE OTHER THING I WOULD SAY, IS JUST AS A REMINDER. THESE ARE ILLUSTRATIONS, CONCEPTUALLY. UM YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS ACTIONS OR ARE THE PRESENTATION TODAY. IT'S JUST FOR AN ACCEPTANCE OF THE FINDINGS AND THE CONCEPTS AND THEN WE WILL. UM THIS WOULD BE PART OF THE, UM,
[01:20:06]
RECOMMENDATIONS AND TOOLS GOING FORWARD FOR HOW IMPLEMENTATION CAN HAPPEN. SO JUST A REMINDER THAT. THIS TODAY, NOTHING IS IMPLEMENTED, UM OR OR CHANGED IN ANY ZONING OR LAND REGULATIONS SO. ONE OF THINGS I HEARD, THOUGH, THE WAS THAT WE COULD PERHAPS TWEAK OUR L. D. C NO. FOR THE LONG TERM FUTURE, MAYBE IN THIS CORRIDOR SO THAT NO. HAS REDEVELOPMENT HAPPENS.IT'S MANDATORY. ARE THE NEW DEVELOPMENT TO INCLUDE DEBT. 10 FT SIDEWALK. ON THEIR PROPERTY.
BASICALLY IF WE HAVE THE SPACE, UM. I'D BE INTERESTED WOULD WORK WITH OUR DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT TO BRING BACK SOME RECOMMENDATIONS. I THINK TO BE CATERED TO THIS CORRIDOR TO SEE THAT I MEAN, THIS WOULD BE LONG TERM IMPLEMENTATION. BUT. NO, MY GOAL WOULD BE JUST TO SEE THIS. STARTING TO AT LEAST WE LAY THE GROUNDWORK. WORK. IS THAT A RECOMMENDATION TO MOVE FORWARD? MR WOOD? I'LL HEAR FROM MR MAYER AGAIN. I JUST I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY. I'M NOT ILL. I'M TRYING TO DO IS. THE QUICK THING THAT WE COULD TRY TO SNEAK IN, AS IT WERE WITH THE TRIPLE R. YOU KNOW WHAT? ZOLI MOVE TOWARDS THE LAND USE AND ADDITIONAL STUDIES WE NEED BUT YOU YOU MADE A COUPLE SAMPLE RECOMMENDATIONS AROUND ENHANCED CROSSING CROSSWALKS.
THAT'S ALL I'M TALKING ABOUT. AND IF WE CAN, POTENTIALLY. FAST TRACK THAT HAVE STAFF WILL GET THAT WORK WITH YOU WORK WITH THE MPO AND SEE IF WE CAN. MAYBE BRING THAT BEFORE THE COMMISSION AND HAVE THAT INCLUDED IN THIS TRIPLE OUR PROCESS AS WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO THE BIGGER PICTURE OF POTENTIAL EDITS TO THE FUTURE LAND USE, RIGHT AND AGAIN. THIS IS JUST, YOU KNOW, IF THE. WORD ACCEPTS THE REPORT. WE WILL FORWARD THIS ONTO D. E O FOR THEIR REVIEW THIS STATE ON DO WE CAN CONTINUE TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO YOUR STAFF ON COORDINATING WITH F DUTY AND MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. THAT SECOND THAT MOTION. BRIEF DISCUSSION JUST. I KNOW WE'RE ALL INTERESTED IN PEDESTRIAN. SAFETY. DID YOU NARROW. OUR DO YOU EVER NARROWED DOWN RECOMMENDATION OF WHICH OF THESE INTERSECTIONS? MIGHT HAVE THAT. RAISED STAMPED CROSSWALK WHERE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. US ONE CAN OF COLORADO.
OR DID YOU? DO YOU HAVE A SUGGESTION? OR IS THAT JUST A RECOMMENDATION THAT ONE OF THESE INTERSECTIONS COULD? IT'S A RECOMMENDATION TO USE THE F D A T. WHAT? WHAT'S. PERMITTED WITHIN FDA TEASE CONTEXT, YOU KNOW, SO THEY ACTUALLY I MENTIONED I BREEZED OVER. THIS IS GETTING VERY IN THE WEEDS, BUT, YOU KNOW, UNDERSEA THREE, WHICH IS THEIR CONTEXT CLASSIFICATION FOR THIS DISTRICT. THEY HAVE A SERIOUS OF TRAFFIC COMING MEASURES THAT ARE APPROPRIATE FOR THAT CONTEXT AND FOR THE SPEED THAT'S PRESENT HERE TODAY, EVEN THE POSTED 35 MPH. UM THERE MOST OF THE DISTRICT SO INSIDE THERE, WE WOULD RECOMMEND THAT.
THAT A INTERSECTION STUDY, THEN INVESTIGATE THOSE. THOSE CONTEXT SENSITIVE SPEED MEASUREMENTS, SO NO, WE DON'T. WE DON'T RECOMMEND A SPECIFIC ONE FOR ANY OF THESE INTERSECTIONS. THAT WE CONTINUE THAT THERE'S A CONTINUED CONVERSATION WITH AFTER TEA ABOUT ALIGNING THE CONTEXT OF THE ROAD, RELYING THE CONTEXT WITH THE ROAD CONFIGURATION BECAUSE. UM YOU KNOW, AS YOUR FAMILIAR AND I KNOW THAT THE PALM CITY UM UM INTERSECTIONS ALREADY BEEN ASKED ABOUT, UM, YOU KNOW THAT THAT STRAIGHT SHOT OFF OF US ONE ALTHOUGH IT'S A VERY, VERY IMPORTANT CONNECTION THAT IS MAINTAINED THE MESSAGING OF THAT INTERSECTION TODAY IS GONNA YOU KNOW, GO FOR IT, AND THAT'S NOT THE MESSAGING OF THE CONTEXT.
IT'S NOT SAFE FOR THE VEHICLES. IT'S NOT. GOOD FOR THE BUSINESSES THAT ARE ON US WANT AND, UM, YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T EVEN CONTEND IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE VEHICLES BECAUSE ONCE THEY GO THROUGH THAT, THEN THEY'RE MET WITH SO MUCH RESISTANCE BY THE FACT THAT IT'S ACTUALLY RESIDENTIAL. CONTEXT, YOU KNOW? SO, UM. SO IMPROVING THOSE CONFIGURATION OF THOSE INTERSECTIONS WITHIN WHAT FDR T CALLS THEY'RE. YOU KNOW THE APPROPRIATE CONTEXT, WHICH IS C THREE IN THIS CASE, OR URBAN GENERAL. WOULD BE A GENERAL RECOMMENDATION AND THAT INTERSECTION IS IMPORTANT AS WELL. A SCANNER HIGHWAY, UM AND ALSO IN IN CONNECTION WITH THE DIXIE CUT OFF INTERSECTION AS WELL ON THAT ONE. UM YOU KNOW, WITH THE FUTURE OF WHETHER OR
[01:25:02]
NOT THE WILLOUGHBY THE EXTENSION HAPPENS, UM IT'S ALSO REALLY IMPORTANT INTERSECTION, SO I THINK THAT IT WOULD BE IMPORTANT FOR THOSE INTERSECTIONS ALL BE UNDERSTOOD AS THE NETWORK TOGETHER. THAT WOULD BE JUST A MODIFICATION OF HOW THEY'RE LOOKED AT. OKAY? THANK YOU ANY MONEY? WE HAVE EMOTION WE HAVE AH. SECOND ANY OTHER COMMENTS? BOLD TO ACCEPT THE REPORT AND THE CITY MANAGER HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS? ADD TO US, SIR. JUST WAIT ANOTHER HORRIBLE JUST WAITING ON YOUR BOAT. YEAH. SCANDAL. MR MEYER? YES, MR MACDONALD? YES MR BRUNER? YES MR MATHESON? YES, THERE, CLARK. YES. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR CLIENT COUNSEL. THANK YOU LOOK FORWARD AS WE PROGRESS. HE SHOW 2020 LITTLE. SOME UPDATE, MR HOBART. WELL,[11.
LAKE OKEECHOBEE AND 2022 LOSOM UPDATE BY BEN HOGARTH, CITY OF STUART
]MR WHOLE GORGEOUS COMING UP. I SEE THAT WE HAVE ONE. AH, NEVER GUESS, MR MIKE. HONOR OUR IN THE RIVER KEEPER. SICK PARTNER. YOU WILL. BRIEFLY DISCUSS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT HE'S SEEING THE PAST. DAYS OR WEEKS. AFTERNOON COMMISSIONERS. HERMIE HERE WE HEAR YOU, MR ARM. LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN HEAR ME NOW. OKAY? GOOD AFTERNOON. COMMISSIONER'S BEEN HOLGER COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT FOR THE RECORD. AS YOU NOTED, MAYOR UM MIKE MIKE CONNORS IN THE AUDIENCE TONIGHT WILL BE SPEAKING BRIEFLY, JUST THE CURRENT CONDITIONS IN THE LAKE.
ACTUALLY I WAS IN THE BACK ROOM LISTENING TO THE GOVERNOR GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF A PRESS CONFERENCE. I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT HE HAD BOTH TODAY VISIT THE WEST COAST OF THE CALOOSAHATCHEE AND THEN THE ST LUCIE TODAY AS WELL AS LIKE OKEECHOBEE ITSELF, AND SO HE'S IN HOPE SOUND, ACTUALLY GIVING AH PRESS CONFERENCE AND JONATHAN DICKINSON PARK RIGHT NOW. ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND CONGRESSMAN MASTERS THERE. SO'S LISTENING IN AND. YOU KNOW, IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE GONNA THEY'RE LOOKING AT MEDICATION FOR ALGAE, SO WE'LL TALK ABOUT SOME OF THAT AT THE TOURIST AND THE PRESENTATION AT THE FRONT OF THE PRESENTATION. I JUST LIKE TO BRIEFLY GO OVER THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE SYS OPERATING MANUAL, WHAT THAT IS AND WHAT WE'RE DOING WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING FOR MONTHS. GOOD NOT GET INTO THE TECHNICAL DETAILS.
I PROMISE THAT THIS GETS REALLY INVOLVED. I JUST WANT TO SHOW BRIEFLY SOME OF THE WORK WE'VE BEEN DOING SO THE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDS YOU KNOW HOW TECHNICAL THE PROCESSES BUT.
ALSO, BUT YOU KNOW, THERE'S SOME SILVER LININGS HERE AND WHAT WE'RE DOING AND ARE THE EFFORTS THAT WE'VE MADE OF THE PAST TWO YEARS. AND CERTAINLY THANKS FOR THE COMMISSION. TOMO GIVE BOTH. MYSELF AND VICE MAYOR MATHESON, THE KIND OF. FREEDOM AND FLEXIBILITY THAT WE NEED T ADAPT AND REACT IN THIS PROCESS, AND IT'S BEEN VERY, VERY USEFUL. SO WE DEFINITELY APPRECIATE THAT. THE FIRST THING I'M JUST LEAVING. I'M NOT GOING TO READ ALL THIS. THIS IS SIMPLY JUST FOR THE PUBLIC. IF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS VIDEO IN THE FUTURE, YOU CAN PAUSE IT READ THROUGH. THIS IS JUST A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WHAT LONESOME IS. IT'S ESSENTIALLY A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE FOR WHAT WAS THE LAKE OKEECHOBEE REGULATIONS SCHEDULE OF PREVIOUS YEARS. UM AND BASICALLY EVERY 10 YEARS OR SO, THE ARMY CORPS IT COULD BE EVEN 20 YEARS. THE ARMY CORPS IN CONGRESS OR LOOKING AT CHANGING HOW LAKE MANAGEMENT IS DONE WITH NEW INFRASTRUCTURE. SO IT'S ALL KIND OF DETERMINED BY WHAT WHAT NEW INFRASTRUCTURE IS PUT INTO PLACE, AND THAT GIVES US MORE ABILITY TO TRANSFER TREAT. RETAINED WATER GENERALLY. THE PROJECT DELIVERY TEAM INCLUDES. I THINK CLOSE TO 200 DIFFERENT AGENCIES, INCLUDING US, STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES, AS WELL. AND ANOTHER MUNICIPALITIES AND JURISDICTIONS AND EVERYBODY THAT'S PRETTY MUCH INVOLVED IN THE LAKE AND CERTAINLY PRIVATE ENTITIES AS WELL. ON DSA. OH THIS P D T HAS BEEN INVOLVED FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE INVOLVED. REALLY? AT THE VERY LEAST THROUGH OCTOBER OF THIS YEAR WITH A LOT OF THE DISCUSSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AND REQUEST TO THE ARMY CORPS, SO WE STILL HAVE A FEW MONTHS AHEAD. AND THESE AIR, PROBABLY THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL EVENT. OR MONTHS OF THE ENTIRE TO THE THREE YEAR LONESOME PROCESS THAT WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH. AND SO THIS IS JUST TAKEN STRAIGHT FROM THE ARMY CORPS. WHAT THEY GIVE TO PD TEAM MEMBERS. I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU A QUICK INSIGHT INTO WHAT WE SEE. EVERY TIME WE HAVE A MAJOR MEETING. IT'S A REMINDER SLIDE THAT SHOWS US WHAT THE FOUR PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF LOW SOME ACTUALLY ARE AS MANDATED BY CONGRESS. THE FIRST OBJECTIVE REALLY IS TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, MANAGING GENERAL RISK TO PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY S O THAT INCLUDES EVERYTHING FROM FLOOD CONTROL TO CERTAINLY THE ALGAL BLOOMS OBJECTIVE TO IS. MORE GENERALIZED TO CONTINUING TO PROVIDE FOR NAVIGATION, RECREATION AND FLOOD CONTROL FOR AUTHORIZED USERS. OBJECTIVE
[01:30:07]
THREE ALSO APPLIES TO THEM WITH REGARD TO WATER SUPPLY AND TRYING TO IMPROVE WATER SUPPLY PERFORMANCE. AND AN OBJECTIVE FOUR IS SPECIFICALLY DISCUSSING. HOW CAN WE ENHANCE, NOT JUST NOT JUST RESTORE BUT ACTUALLY ENHANCED THE ECOLOGY AND LAKE OKEECHOBEE, THE NORTHERN ESTUARY SO. YOU KNOW, THAT'S AN INTERESTING WORD THAT WE USED ENHANCE THE ARMY. COREY USED THAT BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE RIGHT NOW, THERE'S NOT A LOT OF ENHANCEMENT GOING ON, AND THAT'S SOMETHING WE'LL TALK ABOUT IN THE FUTURE. THIS SLIDE IS. ONE OF THE MORE TECHNICAL EXPERIENCES THAT WE HAVE IN THE LONESOME PROCESS. I'M NOT GOING TO EXPLAIN WHAT IT IS IN ITS ENTIRETY. I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU A SNAPSHOT INTO SOME OF THE JUST JUST KIND OF A FRACTION OF SOME OF THE ANALYSIS THAT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH. TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU'RE MANAGING A LAKE A CERTAIN WAY AND ALL OF THE WATER GOING LEFT, YOU KNOW, WEST EAST EVERY DIRECTION.WHO'S WHO'S IMPACTED, YOU KNOW, IS IT. WHAT WE WOULD CALL ZERO SUM. IT DOESN'T MEAN IF YOU TAKE WATER AWAY FROM SOME PEOPLE. DOES THAT MEAN OTHER PEOPLE ARE GETTING IT? IS THAT ALWAYS TRUE? SO THESE KINDS OF NUMBERS THAT WE HAVE. WANTED I HIGHLIGHTED. ACTUALLY THIS WAS THE ARMY CORPS THAT HIGHLIGHTED THESE THREE PLANS. THESE PLANS ARE ESSENTIALLY WHAT THEY TOOK FORWARD TO THIS KIND OF NEXT PROCESS THAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH. AND IT'S TWO OF THE PLANS. TWO OF THE THREE PLANS THAT WE'VE CARRIED FORWARD ARE FAR BETTER THAN WHAT WE'VE EXPERIENCED IN YEARS PAST. THEY WOULD AND WHERE THIS VERY, VERY LAST COLUMN ON THE RIGHT. WE'RE TRYING TO GET THESE NUMBERS DOWN IS CLOSE TO ZERO AS POSSIBLE. IMAGINE THAT THIS.
THESE THIS NUMBER CONSTITUTES ZERO DISCHARGES TOW US IF HE GETS THE ZERO, SO THE LOWER THAT NUMBER IS THAN ANY OF THE ANY OF THE NUMBERS HERE IN THE RIGHT COLUMN. THAT'S GOOD FOR US. SO CERTAINLY ANY PLAN THAT'S AS CLOSE TO ZERO AS POSSIBLE IS BETTER FOR US THAN WHAT WE'VE EXPERIENCED THE CURRENT NUMBER THAT WE'RE EXPERIENCING A SOMEWHERE IN THE 220 RANGE THAT STANDS FOR 220,000 ACRE FEET. OF WATER COMING OUR WAY. THE FUTURE WITHOUT WHICH IS THE NUMBER RIGHT BELOW THAT THEY'D BE IF WE DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. WE JUST KIND OF LET NATURE TAKE ITS COURSE. THE ARMY CORPS SAYING IT'S GONNA GET WORSE FOR US NOW. WE DON'T NECESSARILY AGREE WITH THAT. BUT I. DO YOU WANT TO ILLUSTRATE THAT IF WE DON'T CHANGE SOMETHING. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE GOOD FOR US EITHER WAY, AND SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IN THIS ENTIRE PROCESS IS GET IN. ILLUSTRATE TO THE ARMY CORPS. HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS AND SO SOME OF THE PLANS THAT WE SEE COMING THROUGH DISCHARGES. ARE SEVERELY REDUCED. WHICH IS A GOOD THING FOR US. THEY'RE SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCED AND WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS GET HIM DOWN TO ZERO IS CLOSE TO ZERO AS POSSIBLE. SO THERE'S SOME SILVER LINING HERE. THAT'S THE ONLY REASON I JUST WANT TO BRING THIS SLIDE UP JUST FOR THE RECORD, SO EVERYBODY YOU KIND OF GET A QUICK SNAPSHOT OF WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT. THE ARMY CORPS IS LOOKING AT AT AT SEVERAL CONCEPTS TO INCLUDE IN ALL OF THEIR MODELING AND EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IN THE FUTURE, AND THE GOOD NEWS IS LOOK AT THE FIRST THREE.
ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE FIRST FOUR. TALKING, INCREASING FLOW. SOUTH. THAT'S A BIG THING FOR US, THAT'S IMPORTANT. REDUCING FLOWS TO THE ST LUCIE ESTUARY THROUGH THE YESTERDAY LATE, THAT'S A BIG THAT'S A BIG PRIORITY FOR US, REDUCING HIGH AND LOW FLOW EVENTS. THE CLUES A HALF HATCH E RIVER. THAT COULD BE A BIG PLUS FOR THE ESTUARIES AND THEN ADDRESS ALGAL BLOOM RISK GENERALLY. SO THE FIRST FOUR OF THESE PRIORITIES THAT THEY'RE CARRYING FORWARD HIS CONCEPTS, INCLUDING IN ALL THE PLANNING FRAMEWORK. BIG THINGS BIG PRIORITIES FOR US, SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THAT OBJECTIVELY, THE ARMY CORPS HAS SEEN THE FAX HAS SEEN THE STATISTICS THE DATA OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS AND UNDERSTANDS.
HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS IN WHO REALLY HAS SHARED AND NOT SHARED BUT WHO HAS SUFFERED THE BRUNT OF THE ADVERSITY HERE AND THE DAMAGES IN THE DISCHARGES, SO I THINK THE ARMY CORPS GETS IT. QUESTION IS WHERE DO WE END UP AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE REALLY TALKING ABOUT. IN THE PLANT FORMULATION PROCESS. WE ARE REALLY FAR DOWN THE LINE HERE. WE'RE TALKING. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ALTERNATIVE PLANS. THE ARMY CORPS IS TRYING TO BUILD ONE PLAN, BUT THEY ALSO IN THEIR LORDS PROCESS AND LONESOME PROCESS. CREATE SEVERAL OTHER ALTERNATIVES THAT.
COMMANDERS IN THE FIELD CAN USE AS GUIDEBOOKS AND GUIDANCE DOCUMENTS TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND HOW TO MANAGE WATER IN THE FUTURE, SO THEY'RE NOT SIMPLY USING IN LOGS THEY'RE USING. REAL DATA AND COMPARATIVELY, IF YOU LOOKED AT THE 2000 AND EIGHT LORDS, I THINK THE MODELERS OF THE ARMY CORPS. THIS IS A PRETTY DRAMATIC NUMBER AND IT REALLY STUCK OUT. THEY'RE MODELING ON. LEE WAS ABLE TO COMPUTE THE COMPUTATION WAS ONLY ABLE TO PRODUCE. I THINK SOMEWHERE LIKE A DOZEN OR TWO DOZEN MODELS IN A SPECIFIC PERIOD OF TIME, IT
[01:35:02]
TOOK DAYS FOR THEIR COMPUTERS TOE PUT OUT ONE MODEL. YET FOR THIS PROCESS. A LITTLE OVER. A DECADE LATER, THEY WERE ABLE TO PRODUCE 120,000 SIMULATIONS. FROM THAT 120,000. THEY WERE ABLE TO REDUCE IT DOWN TO LESS THAN 30,000 TOE. LOOK AT THAT WAS WITHIN KIND OF A AN IDEAL SNAPSHOT OF WHAT THEY WANTED. T KIND OF HAVE FOR ALL THEIR TARGET MADE METRICS AND MEASUREMENTS. FROM THERE, THE ENTIRE ANALYSIS WENT THROUGH PAINSTAKING CRITIQUE FROM ALL THE DIFFERENT AGENCIES, INCLUDING THE CITY OF STEWART AND THE TEAM HERE AND. WE WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY SEVERAL PLANS THAT WORKS BEST FOR US AND THE ARMY CORPS KIND OF TOOK THAT WITH MARTIN COUNTIES ON DSA, CERTAINLY NOT THE NON GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS LIKE.INDIAN RIVER KEEPER AND RIVERS COALITION. WE ALL COLLECTIVELY DID A GREAT JOB, I THINK ADVOCATING FOR OUR PRIORITIES, AND SO THAT'S WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW WHERE WE'VE GOT SEVERAL GENERATIONS. UM TO STILL GO THROUGH TO TWO OR THREE THROUGH OCTOBER, BUT.
REALLY OCTOBER IS WHERE THE ARMY CORPS STOPS LOOKING AT ALTERNATIVES, AND THEY START BUILDING THE FINAL PLAN. THEN THEY'LL SPEND A GOOD HALF A YEAR AFTER THAT WELL INTO 2020 DEVELOPING THOSE DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSES AND IMPACT STATEMENTS.
AND EVERYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF THAT THEY PUT IN LOURDES BEFORE, SO THERE'S A LOT THAT STILL HAS TO BE WRITTEN, AND WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE THE ARMY CORPS GOING THROUGH REALLY A PAINSTAKING EFFORT, TOO. SOLICITORS MUCH PUBLIC COMMENTARY IS POSSIBLE PHONE CONVERSATIONS OFF LINE WITH STAFF OF THE ARMY CORPS. ALL OF IT HAS BEEN A HUGE, MASSIVE UNDERTAKING. ON. DO YOU THINK TWO OR THREE YEARS IS A LOT OF TIME, BUT THIS IS A MASSIVE PROCESS WHEN IT COMES TO EVERYTHING FROM THE ANALYSIS, PART TO THE ACTUAL DRAFTING OF A WORKING PROTOCOL DOCUMENT. SO THAT'S WHERE WE ARE WITH WITH LOW SOME. IT'S UNFORTUNATELY IS READER'S DIGEST IS I CAN MAKE IT IT IS, IT IS A COMPLEX TOPIC. WE ALSO APPRECIATE THE COMMISSION TAKING THE TIMETO WORK WITH US ON. ALL THE LETTERS AND ALL OF THE TRANSMITTERS THAT WE'VE SENT TO THE CORPS IN THE LAST TWO YEARS. CERTAINLY VICE MAYOR MATHESON MYSELF, MIKE DAVID, WE ALL WORK BEHIND THE SCENES TO GET ADDITIONAL COMMENTARY TO THE CORE WHEN PRUDENT, AND THAT'S HELPED US BE MORE FLEXIBLE. SO THAT'S THE LONESOME PROCESS. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT ANY TIME ON BEN. SO NOW WE JUST HAVE SOME PICTURES AND SOME SLIDES.
I'VE ASKED MIKE CONNOR, THE INDIAN RIVER KEEPER, TOE. COME UP AND TALK AT THE PODIUM ABOUT SOME OF WHAT HE'S SEEING OUT THERE RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU, BEN. APPRECIATE IT. COMMISSIONER IS GOOD AFTERNOON. GOOD TO BE HERE AGAIN IS ALWAYS HOPE. YOU ALL REALIZE WHAT AN ASSET MR BEN HOGARTH IS? HERE. YOUR COMMISSION ABSOLUTELY BREAKS IT DOWN FOR EASILY VORY TAKES THE COMPLEXITIES, ALL OF IT, AND THERE'S NOTHING MORE COMPLEX THAN A CERTAIN AND THERE MUST BE 7000 ACRONYMS TO DESCRIBE ALL OF THE PLANS. ALL THE TECHNICAL I THINK IT'S ALL BY DESIGN, BUT I WON'T GO THERE RIGHT NOW. MY JOB IS INDIAN RIVER KEEPER EITHER BIG JURISDICTION 160 MILES FROM STUART TO NEAR SMYRNA. RIGHT NOW. MY FOCUS IS CERTAINLY ON LAKE OKEECHOBEE. BECAUSE OF THE DIRE SITUATION. WE'RE IN WITH THE LAKE. THIS IS SOME PHOTOS I'VE TAKEN LAST WEEK. PRIVATE AFTER SEVEN DAYS AND LAST 25. I'LL TELL YOU EVERY DAY I GO OUT. BLOOM IS WORSE. THE BLOOM HAS INTENSIFIED. IT'S MORE WIDESPREAD. I DID HAVE A CHANCE TO GET ON AN AIRPLANE WITH ED LIP ISH LOCALLY ABOUT A WEEK AGO. YOU REALIZE HE'S A STUNT PILOT. WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA PASS OUT OF ONE POINT WHEN YOU HEAR ME GET YOU A BETTER PICTURE, AND HE DIPPED THE WING A LITTLE BIT. I THOUGHT WAS GONNA FALL OUT OF THE PLANE. BUT. NO, HE'S HE'S THE EYE IN THE SKY. AND CONSEQUENTLY, JACKIE THOROUGHLY DOES. HIS WIFE AND SON TODD HAS A GREAT WEBSITE CALLED LAKE ON ION LEKO. YOU CAN'T GET A FEEL FOR IT TO YOU. GO THERE YOURSELF. WHEN YOU DO TAKE 34 MASKS. IT'S STILL NOT ENOUGH.
TRUST ME. THIS IS OFF THE HIGH BRIDGE LOOKING FOR IMPORT MY UNCLE WESTERN SEE 44 CANAL JUST SEVEN DAYS GO ON THE LEFT. AND THIS WAS AFTER THE THREE OH EIGHT LAKH INMATES. NOT SURE WE HAVE TO LOCK SYSTEMS. WE CALL THEM LINES. THE DEFENSE RS A LOCK HERE. TROPICAL FARMS IS OUR LOCAL LOCK AND DAM. THE THREE OH EIGHT IS THE LOCK SYSTEM AT PORT, MY ALCOHOLIC OF CHOBE. THAT'S OUR OTHER LINE DEFENSE. WE CAN HALF GO TWO WEEKS AGO, THE LEVEL IN THE LAKE. LAKE LAKE, WHICH IS ABOUT 13 74 ELEVATION RIGHT NOW IS A BIT HIGHER THAN THE CANAL. AND.
CONSEQUENTLY THE GATES WERE CLOSED THAT ALLOWS GRAVITY FLOW ALLOWS THE WATER TO GO FROM THE LAKE TO THE CANAL, AND WE'RE GONNA BE UPSET ABOUT THAT. WHAT THEY NEED TO DO THE EYES. I FOUND OUT FROM DEEP. I'M SORRY. UM DISTRICT. DIRECTOR THROUGH BARTLETT, DOES THEY HAVE A
[01:40:04]
GUARANTEED THE FARM OPERATIONS ALONG THE CANAL DO HAVE A GUARANTEE OF WATER SUPPLY.THEY'RE ABLE TO TAP THAT CANAL FOR IRRIGATION, ESPECIALLY IN DROUGHT TIMES LIKE THIS, SO THEY DO TAP THE CANAL. PIPE WATER OUT THE CANAL. BUT HOW SPEECH A CERTAIN HEIGHT TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. SO WHAT HAPPENS IS THE CANAL. GOES DOWN AND THE WATER FLOWS FROM LAKE OH, INTO THE CANAL. SO RIGHT NOW, THAT IS THE BASIN RIGHT INSIDE MY AKA FABIO'S DRIVEN OUT THERE BEFORE. THAT'S WHAT THE PUBLIC FISHES. LOT OF FOLKS. PFISTER FIXTURES, SUSTENANCE FISHING FOR THE FAMILIES. I'LL GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE. NEXT LIE, BEN. THIS IS FURTHER DOWN THE KIND I WAS ABOUT 22 MILES EAST OF LAKE OF IT SHOULD BE NOT QUITE TWO MILES. IF ANYBODY IF YOU'RE DRIVEN OUT THEIR ROAD TO PORT MYAKKA WEST INDIAN TOWN, THEY'RE THE GRAVEYARDS ACROSS STREET. THAT IS DIRECTLY ACROSS STREET AND THAT IS COULD WASTE EAST FOR SIGN OF BACTERIA. WHEN ESSENTIALLY, THE GATES ARE OPEN. THEY AREN'T. PHYSICALLY MANLY DISCHARGING TO THE C 44 IN AGREED AMOUNT, BUT IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO CARRY SIGN OF BACTERIA. AND THIS YEAR.
I'VE BEEN WATCHING HIS TRACK THIS FOR ALMOST 30 YEARS. 26 YEARS OLD IN HERE. I'VE NEVER SEEN BLOOMS THIS INTENSE IN LATE APRIL. YEAH. LITTLE SIGN ON THE RIGHT. WE I DID. CONTACT DEPARTMENT HEALTH MARTIN COUNTY ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, AND I REALIZED THAT ALL THE FOLKS OUT THERE. DON'T READ ENGLISH WELL, AND THEY WERE FISHING RIGHT IN THE MATTER OF THESE BLOOMS AND KEEPING THE FISH EATING THE FISH. TWO KIDS ON THE BANK WITH THEM, CUTTING THEIR LANGUAGE, THEIR TEETH. YOU KNOW, IT WAS JUST SAID SOMETHING'S GOTTA BE DONE ABOUT THIS. SO I DID CALL DEPARTMENT HELP. THEY DID CONSTRUCT A COUPLE SIGNS OF SCIENCE HAD BEEN PUT OUT IN A COUPLE SPOTS. THEY'VE GOT TO BE LENGTH AND CHAINED TO THE ORIGINAL SCIENCE BECAUSE THEY GET STOLEN. THAT WAS THE WORD OF DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TO ME, THEY ACTUALLY GET TAKEN.
THERE'S NO NEED FOR 45 MORE SIGNS OUT THERE. NOW. TELL US THE CITY COMMISSION. YOU MIGHT WANT TO LOOK INTO THIS A LITTLE BIT. I'M GONNA ASK PARDON HEALTH TO DO A LITTLE MORE OUT THERE FOR US, BUT THERE'S GONNA BE TIME SOMETIME AND PROBABLY JULY OR AUGUST WHERE YOU MAY BE FACED WITH A SITUATION WHEN YOU NEED TO HAVE. I THINK THE SIGNS SCANNERS SCIENCE CONSTRUCTED RIGHT DOWNTOWN STEWART. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT. I BELIEVE YEAH. THIS IS REALLY TROUBLESOME. THIS IS A FESTERING MATTER OF ALGAE. AGAIN MOUNT HALF EAST LEGO CHOBE ALGAE TENDS TO BACK UP INTO DEAD ENDS. IT'S EPHEMERAL. IT COMES UP IN THE WATER COLUMN.
IT IS A SIGN OF BACTERIA. THAT PHOTOSYNTHESIZE IS JUST LIKE A TRUE GREEN ALGAE. HOT SUNNY DAYS STILL VERY LITTLE WIND. IT'LL GET INTO DEAD ENDS LOOKS ON THE SHORELINE. IT'LL GET IN PLACES LIKE THE HOKEY MARINA, FOR INSTANCE, AND BECOME VERY BAD. THAT'S A PROCESS THAT'S TYPICAL AND NORMAL FOR THIS ALGAE WHO HERE DOESN'T REMEMBER IN OUR OWN RIVER. LOST SUMMERS HAVE LOST TRACK OF HIM. HE LOST SUMMERS WE'VE HAD NOW WHERE WE HAD THIS KIND OF FORMATION HAPPENED. THERE'S A SUPER TOXIC I CAN ONLY GUESS WITH THE LEVEL MICROSYSTEMS IS IN THESE BLOOMS. THINGS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED YET. I DID REPORT. HE'S A DP ABOUT TWO DAYS AGO, AND THEY'RE BUSY AIRPORT MYOPIA. THEY'RE TAKING TESTS ON THE LAKE ITSELF, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT PRIORITY, BUT THIS IS SOME OF THE MOST TOXIC. LIKE ASSISTANT LEVELS. I THINK WE'LL FIND. HOPEFULLY, THE WEAKER CELL WILL HAVE SOME IDEAS BECAUSE PEOPLE DO FISH RIGHT HERE, ARRIVING STANDING. AND YOU KNOW, I WAS UNABLE LIKE TO GET THE PICTURE OF THE GUY FISHING IN THE ALGAE BLOOM, BUT WE COULD JUST I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE OF THOSE PICTURES. SO IF THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT TO BRING UP NOW, THERE'S NO PROBLEMS. NO PROBLEM. YOU KNOW, IN THIS LAST WEEK, I DID SEE SOME. EPI TESTING WAS DONE A FLU OF THE LAKE WITH DEADLY FISH, AND THERE WAS 45 SWANSON OUT OF THE SIDE OF BACTERIA THAT PARTICULAR SEE, PARTICULARLY THICK ONE WAS ON THE WEST SIDE BY THE MARSH, SOME NORTH CLEWISTON. AND THE BRIGHTEST. WORST ONE WAS CLOSER TO PORT MYAKKA THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW THIS NOT JUST ONE AREA'S WIDESPREAD IN THE LAKE. I BELIEVE 300 SQUARE MILES OF THE LAKE'S SURFACE, IS NOW AFFECTED BY CYANOBACTERIA BLOOM SILICA 730 SQUARE MILES IN TOTAL. SOME OF THE LEVELS THAT CAME BACK LAST WEEK FROM A BLOOM OFF OF THE MARTIAN WEST ISLAND, CHOBE AND UNDERSTAND THAT EIGHT PARTS PER BILLION IS THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION'S THRESHOLD. FOR HUMAN CONTACT.
DANGER ENDING OVER EIGHT IS CONSIDERED TOO HAZARDOUS TO TOUCH. ONE BALLOON 15 20, MILES ALONG THE WEST SIDE OF THE CHOBE CAME BACK SEVEN SPOTS CAME BACK 84 57 47 53 483 26 195. THAT IS THE BLUE MIST ON THE SIDE OF THE LAKE. SO WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND. YOU'LL HEAR FROM A LOT OF FOLKS THAT THE BLUE IS ONLY AND ONE LITTLE PART OF THE LAKE. THE DEEP PART OF LAKE OUR SIDE. THE LAKE. THAT'S ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE. AND I DON'T THINK I THINK WITH THE MUDDINESS OF THE WATER THIS YEAR. NOTICED BEFORE THE BLUES HIM HAPPENED IN LATE MARCH.
I'VE NEVER SEEN THE LAKE SO MUDDY BECAUSE OF RE SUSPENSION OF THE MONTH LATER IN THE BOTTOM. AND UNDERSTAND. THE TROUBLING PART IS. MUCH LAYER HOLDS DECADES AND DECADES OF LEGACY PHOSPHORUS. SO BASICALLY THE LAKERS YOURSELF POLLUTING BODY WATER. IT BECOMES US WHEN
[01:45:03]
WE HAVE DISCHARGES. WE ARE LAKE UP THE CHOBE. THAT'S WHY THERE'S SUCH URGENCY IN THIS MATTER. I'M HOPING THAT GOING FORWARD. I'M HAPPY HERE. THE GOVERNOR HAS. TAKING A SERIOUS FLORIDA WATER KEEPERS JUST THIS MORNING RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC A LETTER YOU THE GOVERNOR ASKING FOR AN EMERGENCY ORDER. FRIENDS. THE EVERGLADES JOINED US ON THIS LETTER. SO. THE GOVERNOR IS GETTING IT FROM ALL SIDES. HE'S GETTING THE MESSAGE LOUD AND CLEAR. WE CAN RELEASE FREE UP SOME FUNDS FOR RELIEF FROM THE EFFECTS OF THIS FOR OUR COMMUNITY, BUT. ARMY CORPS HAS TOLD US WEEKLY CALLED THEY DON'T SEE DISCHARGES HERE IN THE NEXT 30 TO 45 DAYS DUE TO THE ELEVATION OF LAKE AND IT'S RECEDING QUITE WELL. BUT WHAT'S. HUSBAND TO ME IS THE FACT THERE'S A LOT OF CAPACITY NOW SOUTH OF THE LAKE. STRI NG UP THE W C. A S S T A SHOULD HAVE ROOM WE HAVE TO IMPLORE THE COURT TO PLEASE PUT EVERY DROP WATER POSSIBLE IN THOSE FACILITIES IN THOSE HOLDING AREAS AND SPARE US EVERY DROP. THEY CAN. AND IN CLOSING ANY QUESTIONS, I'D BE HAPPY TO FEEL THEM. IN THE LETTER THAT MIKE IS TALKING ABOUT WE HAVE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT NOW THAT THAT WENT OUT ON SATURDAY. IT LOOKS LIKE THE LAKE UNDER 14 FT. 13 74.UNDERSTAND THIS ELEVATION. FIRST THING. IT'S NOT THE DEATH THIS ELEVATION ABOVE SEA LEVEL.
THAT'S HOUSE. IT'S ABOUT DONALD. OH MIKE. THANK YOU. FOR WHAT? YOUR PRESENTATION. I WENT OUT TO THE LAKE. NOT NOT NOT INTENDING TO GO OUT TO LOOK AT THE ALGAE. IT WAS FOR ANOTHER PURPOSE. SO THE SHOW SOMEBODY THE LIKE THAT I'VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE. AND THAT'S MOVING HERE FROM OUT OF STATE AND. BUT HONESTLY, IT WAS DISTURBING. WHAT I SAW IT. I THINK HE SAW THE VIDEO. I TOOK VIDEO OF IT AND SURE HANDED, AND UNFORTUNATELY I WAS INVITED TO GO ON THAT FLIGHT WITH YOU, AND UNFORTUNATELY I HAD A CONFLICT. I WOULD'VE LOVED TO HAVE GONE AND SEEN IT FROM THE AIR. BUT THE BEST WAY I COULD DESCRIBE IT, IT LOOKED LIKE A TOXIC GREEN SMOOTHIE OR MAYBE A BIG LIKE THE BLAKE IS LIKE A BRIGHT GREEN. PAINTED IT'S SURPRISING HOW BRIGHT THE COLOR IS. I MEAN, I'M SURE THAT LENDS TO HOW TOXIC IT IS, BUT. UM, BUT IT LOOKS THE LAKE LOOKS. IT LOOKS THICK. THE WATER LOOKS THICK. IT LOOKS. GREEN AND IT WAS AND I WALKED UP AND DOWN THE DYKE A LITTLE WAYS TRYING TO FIND A SPOT WHERE I COULDN'T SEE THE GREEN AND. IT'S IT IF THEY OPENED THE BOX. IT'S HEADING OUR WAY AND. THERE'S GOTTA BE AN ALTERNATIVE. I THINK YOU'RE I THINK WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT SENDING THE WATER SOUTH TO THE S. T. A S. UH, TIME THAT WE. YOU KNOW, AS BAD AS THIS IS, I THINK THIS IS WORSE. THEN IT WAS IN 2016 BECAUSE THE WATER IN THE LAKE WASN'T THAT BAD. AND BY THE TIME I GOT TO US, IT WAS. WAS BLOWS OVER SO I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT HAPPENS. IF IT GETS TO US. I MEAN, IT'S TIME THAT WE GOTTA LOOK AT. THEY NEED TO LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, FLOODING OTHER OTHER AREAS. THE FLOOD IT'S TIME TO PUT PEOPLE BEFORE PLANTS. NEXT COMMENT. I MEAN, THERE IS I MEAN, THERE'S AGRICULTURAL AREAS THAT WERE, YOU KNOW POINT. HONESTLY WE'RE PAYING. YOU GOT FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PAYS THE SUGAR COMPANIES TOE. REDUCED SUGAR THEY DON'T NEED. UH WHY DON'T WE? THERE'S THAT THERE'S SOME OF THE WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREAS MAYBE, LIKE JOHN CORBETT. YOU KNOW, I HATE TO SEND THE WATER THERE, BUT I'D RATHER SEND IT THERE IT INTO INTO INTO THE RIVERS AND ESTUARIES, WHICH ARE. ARE DEAD SO WELL, THE BOTTOM LINE ISN'T LOOSE. UM WANTS TO REVIVE A BALANCE PLAN AND FOR OUR COMMUNITY, A BALANCED PLAN IS ZERO DISCHARGES. THEY WANT TO MEASURE HARM VERSUS BENEFIT. WE GET ZERO BENEFIT FROM WACO WATER. WE GET ONLY HARM, SO WE HAVE TO KEEP RUNNING IN THE CORE THAT WE HAVE NO IDEA. WE HAVE NO. SURE, BUT BALANCED PLAN WHEN IT COMES TO DISCHARGES. WE WANT NO DISCHARGES. YES THEY KNOW IT FELT REALLY WELL AND OTHERS.
THERE'S ANOTHER POINT, TOO, ABOUT ABOUT THE WATER THAT COMES OUR WAY WITH THE BLOOMS. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT FRESH WATER COMING OUR WAY, IT'S DAMAGING TO OUR HISTORY JUST IN ITSELF BECAUSE OF THE SALINITY LEVEL, BUT IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THAT SOLIDITY LEVEL IS ALSO KIND OF LIKE A BOMB WAITING TO GO OFF WHEN ALGAL BLOOMS COME OUR WAY. AND WHAT I MEAN IS SALINE WATER. SALT ITSELF KILLS THE CELLS OF THE ALGAE THAT DIE OFF EVENT OF A SERIOUS MATTING OF THESE ALGAE AT THE SURFACE LEVEL. CAUSES IT KIND OF AN ACUTE.
QUICK REACTION THAT CAUSES THE LEVELS OF TOXINS DISPLAYED ASTRONOMICAL COMPARED TO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SEE IN THE LAKE, SO AS BAD AS THE LAKE IS PROBABLY EVER GOING TO GET BECAUSE IT'S SOLELY FRESHWATER. YOU STILL DON'T SEE THE LEVEL OF TOXICITY THAT WE SEE IN THE ESTUARIES BECAUSE OF THAT SALT WATER INFLUENCE, SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. WE GET
[01:50:02]
IT FAR WORSE THAN THE LATE COULD EVEN GET IT AS BAD AS YOU SEE RIGHT NOW, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S NOT TALKED ABOUT A LOT, BUT SHOULD BE THE LAST THING I JUST WANTED TO SAY IT WAS JUST EXACTLY THANK YOU TO BEND. THEIR COMMISSIONER, MATHUR SAID. AND MIKE AND EVERYBODY THAT'S BEEN WORKING ON THIS PROJECT FOR THE WHOLESOME. IT IS A VERY COMPLICATED PROCESS. WHEN I SAY I DON'T COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND IT, CAUSE I HAVEN'T PUT THE TIME IN THAT YOU ALL HAVE THAT. AND I THINK WHAT YOU REALIZED WHEN YOU SHOWED US TONIGHT IS THAT IT'S INCREDIBLY COMPLICATED. S O. THE FACT THAT YOU GUYS ARE GETTING IT UNDER CONTROL AND UNDERSTANDING IT AND BEING OTHER MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS, I THINK IS VERY GOOD. AND SO THANK YOU GUYS FOR ALL YOUR EFFORTS, BECAUSE IS IT THIS IS WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE IS JUST KEEP PUSHING AND PUSHING AND PUSHING. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.THANKS, COMMISSIONER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. SO. YOU HAVE A QUESTION WAS THERE? I HAD A COUPLE COMMENTS. I'D LIKE YOU TO KEEP THIS DOCUMENT, WHICH. UP ON THE SCREEN. PLEASE, UM.
GOOD NEWS IS THIS WILL CUT INTO MY COMMISSIONER COMMENT. BECAUSE I'LL GET IT DONE NOW, BUT THEN WE'LL REMOVE ANY COMMENTS REGARDING THE LAKE FROM THOSE COMING. UM BUT. OUR INDIAN RIVER KEEPER MENTIONED TWO IMPORTANT THINGS THAT I REALLY WANT TO STRESS ON 11 WAS GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLY AND WHAT WHAT THAT MEANS. THREE OR FOUR WEEKS AGO. AS YOU GUYS KNOW, I'VE BEEN UPDATING YOU ON WHERE THE ALGAE IS. THANKS TOW. MIKE CONNOR AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN LETTING ME KNOW. BUT THAT GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLIES THE REASON OVER THE PAST WEEK OR SO THE THREE A WEIGHT HAS BEEN OPENED. THAT AND NAVIGATION. WE'RE NEVER GOING TO TOUCH NAVIGATION, BUT THAT GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLIES. THE REASON. THAT LAKE WATER HAS GONE.
THAT'S. HAD PROVEN TOXIC ALGAE RIGHT AGAINST REPORT. MY AKA AND THEY OPEN THE LOCKS. FILL UP THE C 44 CONNECT. AND AGRICULTURE HAS THAT GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLY THE RIGHT TO PUMP WATER OUT OF THE C 44. PERHAPS EVEN IF. THERE'S TOXIC ALGAE THAT'S GOING TO BE TRANSFERRED AND THIS IS. WHAT MR CONNOR MENTIONED AND I'VE HAD THIS CONVERSATION WITH LIEUTENANT COLONEL. THAT'S HARD LINE OF DEFENSE OF HOLDING THAT TOXIC ALGAE THAT. BUT WITH THAT THERE THAT GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLY. TRUMPS THAT TOXIC ALGAE FROM BEING HELD BACK AND HIS TRANSFERRED ONE LEVEL TOWARDS US. SO NOW IT'S ALREADY THREE MILES IN THE CANAL. UM. LUCKILY THE SECOND LINE OF DEFENSE WE DON'T HAVE THAT GUARANTEED WATER SUPPLY. WHAT? WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE HIS BOATS NAVIGATING BACK AND FORTH IN THE CANAL. THE LOCKS ARE OPEN.
SO. EVEN IF WE DON'T RECEIVE DISCHARGES BY THE TIME THAT BLUE GREEN ALGAE DOES MAKE IT.
OUR END OF THE CANAL. THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE BOATS NAVIGATING DAILY. AND. CHUNKS OF THAT ALGAE ARE GOING TO COME IN OUR CANAL. NOT GOING TO SIT UP HERE AND BE OPPOSED TO NAVIGATION. I BELIEVE IN THAT. MM. THE OTHER. THE OTHER. TERM THAT BEN YEARS THE CORE'S USED TRICK ARE USED. IS BALANCED, AND THAT'S WHERE THE PROCESS WERE IN AND THE LOW SOME RIGHT NOW IS THIS BALANCE DIRECT. IT KEEPS TRIGGER AN EMAIL I SENT A WEEK OR TWO AGO. COLONEL KELLY AND COLONEL POLK OF HOW I FEEL, AND I KNOW MOST STUART RESIDENTS FEEL WHEN THEY HEAR THE TERM BALANCE. IN THE LOW SOME PROCESS. AND. JUST OF THE EMAIL WAS FOR US. THERE IS NO BOUNCE. IN MOTION. WE'RE THE ON LEE. STAKEHOLDER THAT ONE. WE ONLY HAVE ONE PRIORITY PRIORITIES TO END DISCHARGES FROM LAKE OKEECHOBEE. BUT. WHERE THEY ALL MY STAKEHOLDER IN THIS WHOLE SYSTEM THAT DOESN'T SEE ANY BENEFIT FROM THE SYSTEM AT ALL. OUR FRIENDS ON THE WEST COAST INCLUSIVE, CATCHY. ROUGHLY PLUS REMINDS, DEPENDING ON THE SEASON, 1000 CFS IS BENEFICIAL WATER SUPPLY TO THAT. ASK YOU WHERE. WELL, THE EVERGLADES NEEDS THE WATER.
THAT'S THEIR BENEFIT. WE SUPPORT THAT IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE. BAG INTERESTS BENEFIT. FROM FLOOD CONTROL. AND FROM WATER SUPPLY. FOR US. ALL THIS TALK OF BALANCE FOR CITY OF SHORT RESIDENTS. DOESN'T EXIST. IT'S WHAT DEGREE OF HARM ARE WE GOING TO BE CAUSED THIS SUMMER? THAT HAPPENS YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR. THAT THAT IS THE PROBLEM

I DON'T KNOW IF WE'LL BE SUCCESSFUL. UM. AND WHAT OPTIONS WE MIGHT HAVE TO GO DOWN IF WE'RE NOT SUCCESSFUL, BUT. WE DON'T PURSUE BALANCE WE JUST PURSUE NOT BEING HARMED FROM A SYSTEM THAT WE DON'T WANT TO BE TIED TO. UM NOW TALKING. ABOUT THE SITUATION WE'RE IN. I'VE DOUBLED WHAT TO DO, AND FRANKLY, I DON'T KNOW. WE'VE KNOWN FOR MONTHS THAT THIS IS COMING, UM AND I'VE. ASKED ADVICE ON OTHERS IS THAT SHOULD WE?

WROTE BUT I ONLY GOT IT A FEW HOURS AGO. I'VE READ IT. I'M GLAD IT'S UP HERE. THE GIST OF IT IS AS THEY DESCRIBE THE SITUATION.THEY'RE URGING GOVERNOR DISSENT IS TO DECLARE A STATE OF EMERGENCY BECAUSE, FRANKLY, THE ADVANTAGE OF US DECLARING A STATE OF EMERGENCY I ISN'T THAT POWER? ADVANTAGE OF GOVERNMENT TO SANTA'S DECLARING A STATE OF EMERGENCY IS AND IN THIS LETTER, THEY URGE HIM. THE DECLARED STATE OF EMERGENCY AND ENCOURAGE THE DISTRICT AND THE D PAY TO TAKE MORE AGGRESSIVE ACTION. IT'S SENDING MORE WATER SOUTH. THE DP TO TAKE MORE AGGRESSIVE ACTION ON HOW TO MANAGE THE BLOOM. AND I THINK I MEAN. I DON'T KNOW. THERE IS A SENSE OF URGENCY IN LIKE US AS THE CITY OF STUART. THAT.

THE MOTION IS FOR BEN TO DRAFT A VERY BRIEF. COVERED LETTER THAT THE COUNTY AND LEE COUNTY AND OTHER NON PROFITS HAVE BEEN KIND OF DOING THIS WHERE WE'RE SUPPORTING. COMMON GROUND STAKEHOLDERS WITH LETTERS TO THE CORE, FRANKLY, WITH THE WAY YOU ALL GAVE ME.

IT'S COMING, AND WE KNOW IT AND I WISH WE COULD STRESS THAT SOMEHOW IN THIS LETTER. AND SO WE'RE GETTING MORE MORE HELP. AND SINCE WE STARTED ON THIS LOW, SOMETHING THIS HAS BEEN THE GREATEST THING AND I THINK AT THE BEGINNING WOULD KNOW THAT THIS IS I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S GOING TO BE OUR SAVIOR. BUT I'M I'M ANGRY, TOO. JUST ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. AND OF ANYWAY, THAT'S
[02:00:03]
IT. ALL RIGHT, SO. ANY IMPROPER PART OF PUBLIC COMMENT JUST ON THIS ONE MOTION. YES, MA'AM.WOULD YOU COME FORWARD AND STATE YOUR NAME? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THIS IS VERY PERSONAL TO ME. MY NAME IS MRS HARRIS. I LIVE IT 5 TO 5, SOUTHEAST ALUM AND AWAY. I AM NEXT TO CREW PARKWAY. IN 2016 AND 2018. I AM NOW I HAVE A HARD TIME BREATHING. I'M ON OXYGEN ALL NIGHT. AND I ATTRIBUTE IT TO L'D BECAUSE I HAD NO IDEA. I'M AN OUTDOOR PERSON. I LIKE TO GARDEN SO I CALLED C D. C. I SAID OKAY. WHAT KIND OF MASTER I NEED AND THEY SAID, MA'AM.
THE MASK ISN'T GONNA HELP THAT GOES THROUGH YOUR EYE GATES, TOO. IT'S TOO LATE. THEN I WENT TO A YEAR AGO. TO THE CLINIC THAT DOES MEDICAL HELP PEOPLE THAT DON'T HAVE MONEY FOR TESTING. YOU SEE? ABOUT THE. BLOOD WORK. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S ABOUT. I HAVEN'T HEARD BACK. BUT I PERSONALLY I'M CONCERNED. ABOUT WHAT'S COMING. I MEAN, IT'S VERY SERIOUS. AND AS I'M SITTING THERE, I'M THINKING I'M SURE THE PERSON THAT SPENT $1.6 MILLION FOR CONDO DOWN FROM THE HOSPITAL MIGHT BE A LITTLE CONCERNED, TOO. I MEAN, I'M AWARE OF WHAT'S GOING ON NOW. SO WHEN I WANT IT COMES WHEN THE WINDS COMING FROM THE SOUTH, I CAN GLOSS ON IT. IF IT'S COMING FROM THE WEST, I CAN'T SO THIS IS A PERSONAL THING TO ME. NO, YOU GUYS CAN'T DO ANYTHING. BUT I REALLY BELIEVE THAT IF WE WERE INFORMED I MEAN, IT'S A SERIOUS MEDICAL ISSUE. I GUESS WHAT THE FLORIDA SPORTSMAN HAD THAT TESTING SITE WHERE EVERYBODY WAS POSITIVE. IN THE NOSTRILS. I MEAN, IT'S A BIG ISSUE. AND I. I PRAY FOR YOU GUYS ALL THE TIME TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES. AND SO I AM BEHIND YOU. DON'T CLAP FOR THE EMERGENCY REQUEST BECAUSE. PEOPLE HAVE TO BE AWARE OF WHAT'S COMING. SO I THANK YOU FOR THE TIME AND I THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING. I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE UP THERE. I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO.

ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS MATTER.

YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A COVER LETTER TO SAY ATTACHED IS THIS LETTER WE SUPPORT TAKING ALL EFFORTS TO PUSH WATER TO THE SOUTH BECAUSE IN THEIR CONCLUSION OF THEIR LETTER, THEY RECOMMEND LIFTING RESTRICTIONS AND SO IT REALLY WOULD BE LIKE TWO SENTENCES, RIGHT? YEAH, THAT AND OUR OUR CONCERN. I MEAN, ELABORATE ON OUR CONCERN FOR WHAT'S COMING, BUT. ENCOURAGING GOVERNOR DISSENTERS TO DECLARE STATE OF EMERGENCY. PUSH MORE WATER SELF. HIGHLIGHTING OUR CONCERN FOR WHAT'S ABOVE THE LOCKS ON HIM.
AND SUPPORTING THIS LETTER. PRIDE FOR FIVE SENTENCES. MAY BE ALL THAT I COULD BE SEEN BEFORE YOU GET IT SIGNED. I JUST WANTED THE FIRST MOTION WAS JUST. TO SUPPORT THIS LETTER, AND I KIND OF HAD THE FEELING THAT IT WAS MORE THAN THAT. I WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A CITY POSITION IN THAT CORRESPONDENTSASSOCIATION. YES I SOLD. SHOULD I MEND MY MOTION TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN? IN A SENSE, WE IN ABOUT 45 SENTENCES. HIGHLIGHT THE KEY POINTS OF THIS LETTER. WE DON'T NEED TO LAY OUT ALL THE DATA OF.
ALL THEIR BULLET POINTS. THAT'S IN THE LETTER. BUT WE NEED TO LAY OUT OUR CONCERN. FOR THE ALGAE AS A MUNICIPALITY. AND. A MAJOR POINT OF THE LETTERS FOR THE GOVERNOR TO DECLARE A STATE OF EMERGENCY SO THAT HE CAN INFLUENCE THE DISTRICT AND GDP TO TAKE STRONGER ACTION. OKAY? IS CLEAR. MR MARTEL. HMM?

COMMENTS. NO. THEY ONLY WANT BILLY. COME IT IS LIKE ANY OF US ALL OF US THIS TIME OF YEAR WE GET ALL ROUND UP AND ANGRY, UM. ABOUT WHAT KEEPS HAPPENING TO US, BUT I THINK WE'RE FINALLY GETTING TO AN END. I REALLY BELIEVE WITH THIS LOW, CEM. AND CONGRESSMAN MASH AND OUR GOVERNOR. I'M IMPRESSED THAT THEY FINALLY JUMPING ON. THIS IS EARLY AS THEY ARE WE EVER BEEN? IS THAT TO ME THAT Z GOOD NEWS. UM AND THAT THEY JUST WE HAVE TO JUST KEEP AT IT AND KEEP AT IT. UM, SOMETIMES THAT. THAT SOMETIMES I THINK IT'S UNFAIR. THAT. BIG AGRICULTURE AREA. CAN HAVE THEIR WATER. WHEN THEY WANT IT. AND WE CAN'T MOVE IT DOWN THERE BECAUSE WHAT'S DOWN THERE? THEY'RE GONNA USE IT. TAKE CARE OF THEIR ARMS. AND IT JUST IT, Z. IT'S UNFAIR. WE'VE GOT TO WORK SOMETHING OUT. WHERE WE CAN ALL WORK TOGETHER. AND BECAUSE I FEEL IT'S VERY ONE SIDED. ANYWAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH MISS FROM COMMISSION MCDONALD. ACTUALLY NOTHING TODAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. LET'S CLUB FOOT. MR MY FRIEND. SAID. THE FLAT. THANK YOU, MADAM MAYOR. JUST TWO THINGS BRIEFLY. I BROUGHT IT UP THAT LAST MEETING ALMOST AS A AS A. IT'S NOT A JOKE, BUT GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF CARS AND TRAFFIC,[02:10:01]
BUT I'M STILL I WOULD LIKE, IF POSSIBLE FOR US TO LOOK AT HOW WE CAN. FIX THE RAILING ALONG RIGHT BOULEVARD. IT'S BEEN OUT FOR SOME TIME AND SCOTT. FLIMSY LOOKING CAUTION, TAPE OR SAFETY, FENCING, PLASTIC FENCING UP TO PATCH THAT AREA. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE. SAFETY ISSUE, AND I'D LIKE TO GET THAT FIXED. IT'S A BIG ICE OR ON D SAFETY HAZARD. AND THEN, UM, I KNOW WE'VE BROUGHT IT UP A COUPLE TIMES THE BLUE SIGNS. WE STILL HAVE SEVERAL OF THE BLUE SIGNS UP NORTH OF THE BRIDGE. NOT JUST FOR PRIVATE DEVELOPMENTS, BUT FOR OUR OWN ANNEXATION AND REZONING S O LIKE TO GET THOSE DOWN, PLEASE. AND I JUST GOT MY SECOND SHOT ON FRIDAY AND I AM SO HAPPY AND I HAD A, UH. WELL, I FELT PRETTY BAD THE NEXT DAY, BUT IT WAS WELL WORTH IT. AND I CAN'T SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH ABOUT IT. AND I HOPE THAT EVERYONE DOES IT. WAS ABLE TO AND JUST I'M SO PROUD OF OUR COMMUNITY, THOUGH THE PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE SO EFFICIENTLY ORGANIZED AND JUST JUST MADE ME SO PROUD TO BE. AMERICAN SAD. THANKS. THANK YOU, VICE MAYOR, UM, ON THE NOTE OF YOUR SECOND VACCINE SHOT. I'VE HAD BOTH MIND. SO IS MY WIFE AND I KNOW MANY OF US HAVE, UM ALSO ON OUR TALKS OF. LAKE AND WHERE IT GOES, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO EXTEND THE INVITATION. TO THE RIVERS COALITION. IT AT THEIR DISCRETION. THEY MAY COME BACK AND USE OUR COMMISSION CHAMBERS. UM IN PERSON MEETINGS. UM. HOME, I THINK.YOU NEED EMOTION FOR THAT. AND SO WE JUST. WELL, I DON'T KNOW. IF I WAS THAT I WANTED TO MY EMOTION. THE CITY THE CITY NEVER PROHIBITED. I THINK THEY MADE THE DECISION ON THEIR OWN.
BUT OUR WE'RE OPEN. IF THEY WANT TO USE IT. I'VE HAD A FEW TALKS WITH SOME OF THE BOARD MEMBERS AND I THINK. IT MAY BE HELPFUL FOR THEIR MEETINGS. IF EVER IF WE DON'T NEED EMOTION, I'LL LET THEM KNOW AND THEY WOULD WORK WITH OUR STAFF TEA AS THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE COMING BACK TO MEETINGS. MAD AMERICAN. I JUST ASKED PAUL QUESTION. UM WE DO WE STILL HAVE A MASK POLICY FOR INSIDE OF CITY HALL. CORRECT YES. OKAY. THEY WOULD BE AWARE OF THAT. MAKE SURE OF THAT. THANK YOU. COMMISSIONER DID YOU YOU LIVE TO BE ASKED YEAH. UM. A COUPLE OTHER THINGS, TALKING TOE MEMBERS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. I WANT TO MAKE SURE. IN OUR OUTREACH FOR GUY DAVIS PARK. I KNOW WE'RE PUSHING REALLY HARD TO GET COMMUNITY OUTREACH FOR E.
STEWART. AREA AND THEIR INPUT. I THINK THAT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT. BUT WE CAN'T FORGET.
ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON THE OTHER SIDE OF GUY DAVIS. HEART. HAS THAT PART DOES EXPANDED OUR IMPACT DO SO I WANT TO BE CERTAIN. THAT THAT OUTREACH DOES INCLUDE YOU KNOW, 13TH STREET AND 14TH STREET. AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD THOSE THOSE SIDE STREETS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD SOUTH OF THE PARK. AND FINALLY I'D LIKE TOE. TO TALK ABOUT. THE RAILROAD. AND WHAT SEEMS INEVITABLE THAT IT'S COMING OUR WAY. THE PANDEMIC MAY HAVE SLOWED IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
LAST YEAR. AROUND THIS TIME, THERE WAS TALKED AND IT NEVER REALLY GOT PAST. THE LEVEL OF TALK WITH WITH BRIGHT LINE. POTENTIALLY MOVING TOWARDS WITH OUR SIGNATURE, BUT THAT WOULD BE ALL IT, WOZ. WAS THE PURSUIT OF FEDERAL MONEY TOE REPLACE THE RAILROAD BRIDGE. UM YOU KNOW? FRANKLY, I'M OPPOSED. TO THE RAILROAD COMING THROUGH OUR TOWN, BUT WE HAVE TO BE REALISTIC THAT IF IT IS COMING. WE NEED THE BRIDGE. OTHERWISE IT'S WORST CASE SCENARIO ABOVE ALL. AND SO. WE DO, HAVE YOU? NO TALK OF AH, LARGE INFRASTRUCTURE PACKAGE ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL. STILL, WE. TOO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT AND DO THE BEST FOR OUR RESIDENTS HERE AND SEE IF MONEY CAN BE BROUGHT HOME. FOR THAT, SO I'D LIKE TO JUST MAKE A MOTION TO INSTRUCT STAFF. TO COME BACK WITH OPTIONS FOR US TO PURSUE. UM MAKING. NEW RAILROAD BRIDGE
[02:15:10]
HAPPENED IN OUR FUTURE. ALL OPTIONS ARE PART OF THE. A LITTLE FROM THE PLANET. HAPPY FOR THEM. STAND OUT HERE. WELL, I THINK THEY'VE DONE A STUDY AND THEY REPLACING ONE AND SEBASTIAN AND VERO BEACH HERE BUT TO MY KNOWLEDGE. THEY'RE NOT MOVING FORWARD WITH IT AT ALL. BUT THIS BUT. EVERY CITY MANAGER OR EVEN JUST INQUIRE WITH FREDDIE. I THINK THEY'RE GONNA GO AFTER THE INFRASTRUCTURE LAND WAS ORIGINALLY PURSUING AND FR A OR FEDERAL RAIL ADMINISTRATION GRANT. FOR CLOSE TO $100 MILLION. BUT IN ORDER TO PURSUE IT, THEY NEEDED IT. THE APPLICATION TO BE SIGNED BY THEIR MARTIN COUNTY OF THE CITY OF STUART. AND THEY NEEDED THE SUPPORT OF CONGRESSMAN MAST. BECAUSE OF A LITANY OF REASONS THEY DIDN'T FEEL LIKE THEY HAD THE SUPPORT TO PURSUE IT. AND SO THEY I WAS INFORMED BY BRIGHT LINE LAST FALL OR LESS SPRING. EVEN. THAT THEY DID DID NOT PURSUE IT, AND WE'RE NOT PURSUING IT IN THE APPLICATIONS DORMANT AND THAT WAS BEFORE. THE PRESIDENT'S INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN WAS EVEN RELEASED. SO I THINK THAT THERE'S PROBABLY LOTS OF OPPORTUNITY AND THE INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNED TO MAKE APPLICATION FOR THAT. QUESTION REALLY WOULD BE IS ON AGAIN. AS COMMISSIONER MASTER POINTS OUT, WE COULD BRING IT BACK HIS AGENDA ITEM, BUT. WHATEVER IT IS, WE'RE IF WE'RE GOING TO APPLY FOR A GRANT LIKE THAT WOULD BE CONTINGENT UPON GETTING. RYAN, MASTER CONGRESSMAN, MASS SUPPORT BECAUSE WITHOUT HIS SUPPORT IN WASHINGTON, IT WON'T THEY WON'T PURSUE IT. I'VE OBTAINED A CONTACT INFORMATION FROM KIM DELANEY. AND I'VE REACHED OUT TO THAT PERSON TODAY VIA EMAIL TO OPEN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT BOTH THE TRAIN STATION AND THE BRIDGE TO TRY RE ENGAGE SINCE WE HAD LOST OUR GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVE BACK PRIOR TO COVET. DON'T KNOW THAT WE WOULD HAVE JURISDICTION TO GO IN THERE ALONE ON ON OUR OWN S, SO I THINK THAT WOULD HAVE TO HAVE SOME SOME SORT OF UM. OTHER, LARGER COUNTY OR FEDERAL ENTITY AS FAR AS CROSSING THE RIVER BECAUSE THAT IS A IT'S A COAST GUARD DEAL TO CROSS THE RIVER. SO IT'S BIGGER THAN US, BUT I THINK IF THE FUNDING IS AVAILABLE, WHICH IT'S COMING DOWN THE PIKE AND ANOTHER THE TRANSPORTATION SECRETARY IS FOCUSED ON OTHER STUFF. BESIDES AUTOMOBILE TRANSPORTATION. I THINK IT'S A GOOD SHOT THAT WE COULD QUALIFY FOR IT. I JUST NEEDED TO GET ALL THE PLAYERS IN THE GAME ARE FINE. TWO COMMISSIONERS IN THE AUDIENCE. MAYBE HE KNOWS SOMETHING BEFORE THAT ON THE MOTION ON THE FLOOR RIGHT NOW IS RATHER THAN DEBATING IT. TODAY. IT DOES BRING BACK SOME BROUGHT BACK THE AGENDA ITEM WITH WITH. OPTIONS AND WHAT PIECES WOULD NEED TO FALL INTO PLACE BASICALLY OFFICES TO DIRECTION. YOU DON'T NEED EMOTION. I MEAN, MY ONLY THING IS, I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY THAT. YEAH, THAT WAS MY THOUGHT THAT. I DON'T THINK I MEAN AS LONG AS OUR OPTIONS ARE LOOKING AT. PARTNERING WITH OTHER LARGER GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, BECAUSE I DON'T THINK IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR US. I DON'T WANT TO JUST LOOK AT OPTIONS FOR US DOING IT ALONE.UM. SO, BUT I'M IN SUPPORT OF THAT. ABSOLUTELY I HAVE NO INTENTION OF PUTTING CITY OF STUART TAX DOLLARS TOWARDS A NEW BRIDGE. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT OPTIONS WE ARE. A YEAR AGO. IT WAS THE OPTION KIND OF BEFORE US WAS BRIGHT LINE WAS GONNA YOU EVERYTHING AND WE USE THE MUNICIPALITY WOULD SIGN OFF ON THE GROUND RIGHT? AND THAT NEVER TOOK OH, OK, CONGRESSMAN MASK AND MARTIN COUNTY WAS NOT INTRUDE AS INTERESTED AS I UNDERSTOOD.
MARTIN COUNTY IS MARTIN COUNTY. YEAH. SO WE'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING THEN. WELL, I'M GOING TO EVALUATE IT. I'LL BRING SOMETHING BACK. OKAY? AND WOULD YOU ALSO INCLUDE UPDATE ON POTENTIAL STATIONS. IF THEY RESPOND TO ME. THANK YOU. WAS THIS MOTION SAID ANY OTHER COMMENTS? SONG CHOICE. SPARE NO SORRY THAT THOSE ARE ALL MY COMMENTS. THANK YOU. WE'RE DONE TO ME. VICE MAYOR HAD THE SAME CONCERNS THAT YOU HAD WITH REGARD TO THE. SUMMER OF 2021, THE SANTA BACTERIA COMING OFF OF THE LAKE AND. ALL THE THINGS THAT MAY HAPPEN AND WHETHER OR NOT WE NEEDED TO DO SOMETHING IN TERMS OF SOME. EMERGENCY PROCEDURE TRYING TO GET A RESIDENT RESIDENTS TO HAVE MORE. INFORMATION AS TO WHAT IS AIRBORNE OR WHAT MIGHT BE POTENTIAL IN FACTS. WE HAVE THE DOGS THAT HAVE BEEN HURT BEFORE ONE SUMMER, AND I WAS JUST WONDERING IF WE NEEDED TO DO CAMPAIGN FOR THE SUMMER TO MAKE SURE THAT. PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE SAFE FROM COME TO THE WATERWAYS WITHIN THE CITY OF STUART, OR MAYBE EVEN SOMETHING BIGGER
[02:20:01]
WITH MARTIN COUNTY. YOU SEE THAT? WE CAN REALLY TRY TO DO THIS BECAUSE WE HAVE TOURISTS COMING INTO THE AREA. I THINK THIS ECONOMY MENTIONED ABOUT HAVING THE. SOMETHING IN SPANISH AND I HAD ALSO TALKED TO UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA. MANY MONTHS AGO. ABOUT TRYING TO TALK TO THE FISHERMAN AND DO A STUDY. THEY DID A STUDY SOMEPLACE IN FORT PIERCE ALONG SOME OF THE CANAL BANKS, THE PEOPLE WHO FISH IN OUR RIVER. WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THAT, AND SHE HAD PROMISED THAT SHE WOULD GET US. ANALYSTS SO THAT THEY COULD COME AND DO SOMETHING IN MARTIN COUNTY. THEY ACTUALLY PAY THE FISHERMAN. FOR THE FISH, AND THEN THEY GO AND THEY TEST THEM. I THINK THAT MAYBE AT THAT TIME THERE WAS A LIMITED AMOUNT AND THEY DO IT WITH THE HARBOR BRANCH, BUT I WILL REACH BACK OUT TO THEM AGAIN. SEE IF WE CAN DO SOMETHING THAT STUART BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE FISH ALONG OUR BRIDGE, AND MAYBE SOME OF THOSE FISH ARE BEING IMPACTED AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE ARE EATING WHAT IS RIGHT AND HEALTHY. FOR THEM SO. I'M NOT SURE IN TERMS OF PUBLIC SERVICE WHAT WE NEED TO DO IF WE NEED TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING. I KNOW THAT BEN HAS BEEN WORKING. AND OF COURSE, YOU VICE MAYOR MATHESON. BUT.REALLY DOING SOME TYPE OF PUBLIC SERVICE. I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE ALL THE WHEREWITHAL WITH SPECIFIC SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION OR THE. MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF ANY OF THE. AGENCIES GAINESVILLE, THE CDC. ANYBODY HAS BEEN PUTTING OUT ANYTHING EXCEPT THE. YOU. I THINK WE'VE HAD SOMETHING THAT SAYS ALGEBRA ROOM. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE READING IS, BUT I KNOW THAT WE'VE HAD SOME OF THOSE ALONG THE BOARDWALKS AND SO ON. BUT THAT WAS ONE OF MY CONCERNS TO WHETHER WE DO AN EMERGENCY, WHETHER WE DO A PUBLIC SERVICE.
CAMPAIGN FOR THE SUMMER FOR THOSE MORE COMING. TO OUR EARS, SO THAT WAS ONE OF MY CONCERNS.
MAYBE WE COULD LOOK INTO IT, MR DYSON. SEE IF THERE'S ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITY. BETTER PLACE TO LIVE, WORK AND PLAY AND GET SOME INFORMATION OUT. BUT I KNOW THAT EVERYBODY HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET THAT INFORMATION, MR. TURTLE, IMPISH AND NEWSPAPER, ALL OF. SO THE RIVERS COALITION, BUT WE STILL NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT NOBODY'S HARMED EXCESSIVELY. SO THAT WAS ONE OF MY CONCERNS. UM. JUST WANTED TO GIVE A LITTLE SHOUT OUT TO ONE OF OUR EMPLOYEES, MISS PANELS, GANDHI STABBED US. THEY GET IT RIGHT THIS SIGN SHE'S BEEN HELPING US SO MUCH AND WORKING WITH THIS HIGH VISIBILITY AND WHEN WE JUST HAD THE PRESENTATION FROM THE CHURCH, CLOSE REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL ABOUT THOSE CRASH SITES ON. MAJOR ROADWAYS, WHICH WE DON'T REALLY HAVE CONTROL OVER. US ONE IS A FEDERAL HIGHWAY.
AND THIS WHOLE IDEA OF WITHIN NEIGHBORHOODS DOING HIGH VISIBILITY, CROSSWALKS, AND WE HAD A PROJECT IMPLEMENTED THROUGH THE CRE. IN THE EAST. YOUR AREA. AND I'M SO GRATEFUL THAT SHE HAS BEEN WORKING HARD WITH MR FREEMAN AND THE STAFF IN OUR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT. AND SHE'S GONNA BE CONTINUING TO WORK. I THINK OF THE MARTIN LUTHER KING JR BOULEVARD AREA AND TRYING TO DO A SURVEY IN THE COMMUNITY WHEN THE EMANCIPATION DAY IS ON NEXT THURSDAY, SO HOPEFULLY TO GET THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER, GET SOME INPUT. FROM THE YOUNG PEOPLE, SO JUST JUST SEEING THE CRE WORKING IN OUR DOWNTOWN AND THEN SPREADING OUT INTO OTHER AREAS OF OUR CITY. THAT'S RECENTLY, INCLUDING THE CRE RECENTLY, LIKE WITHIN THE PAST 57 YEARS. TIME FLIES, BUT. THAT'S SO IMPORTANT TO MY, UM I REALLY WOULD JUST LIKE TO ENCOURAGE AND THANK MR FREEMAN FOR THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING. AND TRULY DOING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND GET HIM GETTING SOMETHING OUT THERE. UM. JUST LIKE TO FINISH OFF MY COMMENTS BY SAYING AGAIN THAT WE HAD THESE, UM, PROCLAMATION FOR THE EMANCIPATION DAY REMEMBRANCE, THE STATE OF FLORIDA. IS PUSHING THIS. THEY'RE HAVING SOMETHING IN TALLAHASSEE AT THE NOT MUSEUM. AND IT'S ONLINE ON FACEBOOK. YOU CAN LOOK ON THE 20TH OR YOU CAN COME. TO STUART 7 20 MARTIN LUTHER KING JR BOULEVARD OF THE END OF LACEY P.
OFFICE HERE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR STUART HISTORY OR FLORIDA HISTORY AND HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER. DELIVERS COMMUNITY. AGAIN I THINK, MR SMITH AND REALIZE THAT WE STARTED THE PROCLAMATIONS AT FOUR P.M. CAME FOR AFTER 5 30, BUT HE'S HERE. HE JUST CALLED YOU OUT.
[02:25:28]
MR MCDONNELL SPOT. OKAY, UM I JUST WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR I HAVE A PATIENT. SEE WHAT JESUS IS SAYING HE HAD TO GO BECAUSE HE COULDN'T BE EVER WILL. GONNA RUN LONG TEST. I WAS OUT OF TOWN AND TAKE CARE OF SOME BUSINESS. BUT THANK YOU FOR BEING PATIENT ON THAT. JUST SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. NO TO TOSS UP BETWEEN 18 63 AND 65. YES, WE'RE NOT. MRS GOT OUT, AND I HOPE THAT ALMOST 10. YOU'RE 20. MAY.LET'S MAKE THIS OFF CITIES SUCCESSFUL. PROGRAM. THINK IS VERY IMPORTANT. IN THE CPI AROUND THE COUNTRY IS ALSO ENGAGE IN HARDER. WELL, I ENFORCE THIS. SO THAT WE CAN ALL THAT HISTORY. HISTORY IS HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH OUR RELATIONSHIP. IF YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MY HISTORY, I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR HISTORY. IT'S HARD FOR US TO COMMUNICATE. NOT DATE DESK, ONE OF THE BIGGEST DOWNFALL. WE HAVE. IN AMERICA IS THAT'S WHEN WE WERE YOUR BAG. USE VARIOUS ABOUT LEARNING ABOUT EACH OTHER. AND WE ALL CAME FROM THE SAME PLACE, BUT WE NEED TO LEARN. THAT WE ARE, I'LL COME UP A DIFFERENT WAY. SO THAT WOULD HELP BUILD A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ALL OF US. WHETHER YOU RECEIVE IT DON'T RECEIVE WORLD IS CHANGING. VERY, VERY FAST. FASTER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE. YOU COULD SEE IT ALL AROUND US YOUNG FOLKS. IT'S NOT THINKING AWAY OLD FOLKS BANK WE DON'T HAVE TO GET ON BOY. WE DON'T HAVE TOE MEET. HERE'S WHERE THEY UNDERSTAND. HOW DO YOU FEEL? AND I THINK WHEN WE DO THAT, IT'S GONNA BE A BETTER CITY. AND I'D LIKE FOR MARTIN CANDIDATE BEING GOOD EXAMPLE, WHICH THEY DID USE MARTIN COUNTY. RANCH END OF A CP EXAMPLE FOR ALL OF US WOULD DISSIPATE IN THE COLBERN 19 DRUGS. WE HAD AT THE OFFICE MARKET, SO IT'S GOOD BAR ALL OVER THE STATE. GOOD JOB OF MARTIN COUNTY. NET ON. SO I WANT TO TELL YOU ALL THINKING.
CONTINUE. LET'S WORK TOGETHER. PLACE A BETTER PLACE. IN GOD WE TRUST. THANK YOU, SIR. THANKS ONCE IN THE LAST FOUR DIGITS OF MY BALA HIMSELF. NOBODY HAS ANYTHING. NOTHING. IF YOUR FRIENDS KNOW THE COMMISSIONER PROMINENCE S O. THANK YOU SO MUCH. MR CITY MANAGER. I'M JUST
[COMMENTS BY CITY MANAGER]
WANTED INFORMED THE COMMISSION THAT OUR STATE OF EMERGENCY FOR COVERT IS EXPIRING. I'D LEAVE AS OF TODAY SO WE WILL NO LONGER BE IN THE STATE EMERGENCY AND I'M REQUIRED TO REPORT THAT YOU THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANKS SO WHAT WAS THE END? PARDON ME. WHAT WAS THE END OF IT? I DIDN'T HEAR THAT. I'M REQUIRED TO REPORT TO YOU THAT WE'RE NO LONGER UNDER THE STATE OF EMERGENCY. BUT WE HAVE OUR OWN RULES, AND WE'RE ASKING PEOPLE TO WEAR THIS GOVERNMENT'S. WITHIN OUR OWN BUILDINGS. YES WELL, OUR STATE OF EMERGENCY DIDN'T REQUIRE THAT AND NEVER WAS PART OF IT. IT WAS MORE ALLOWED THE CITY MANAGER TO DEVIATE FROM PROCUREMENT. ONE OF THE THINGS HE DID WAS ALLOW THE OUTDOOR DINING WITHOUT AN ORDINANCE BEING PASSED. THINGS OF THAT NATURE WOULD HAVE ALL BEEN REPEALED BY NOW. ANYWAY THE POLICY AS IT RELATES TO MASKS IS NOT WITHIN THE STATE OF EMERGENCY. AND THE GOVERNOR HAS STRICKEN ALL EMERGENCY ORDERS ANYWAY. STATES OF EMERGENCY DID. DIDN'T THEY PASS A STATUTE THIS YEAR THAT LIMITS HOW MANY WEEKS WE CAN HAVE A STATE OF EMERGENCY AS WELL? HE SIGNED INTO LAW BY SWEEPING EMERGENCY STATE OF EMERGENCY REFORM. THAT IS GONNA CAUSE A LOT OF ISSUES IT IS AND IT'S EFFECTIVE JULY. AT SOME POINT WE CHOOSE TO DECLARE A STATE OF EMERGENCY DUE TO THE RIVER. WE PROBABLY SHE LOOKED AT VERY CLOSELY AT WHEN WE TIME IT SO THAT IT HAS THE MAXIMUM IMPACT. BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE SIX WEEKS. I THINK ONE OF THINGS I HAVE WRITTEN IN MY NOTES. IT'S FOR MIKE TO REEVALUATE THE STATE OF EMERGENCY. THAT'S. IRONICALLY AS OUR STATE OF EMERGENCY ENDS, WE ARE. JUST TO PROVE DRAFTING A LETTER TO ENCOURAGE THE GOVERNOR DECLARE A DIFFERENT STATEMENT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MOVED TO APPROVAL OF THE[APPROVAL OF AGENDA]
AGENDA. FOR APPROVAL. SECOND. MOVED IN SECOND DOLLAR FAVOR. I THANK YOU. I HAVE COMMENTS FROM[COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC (3 Minutes Max.)]
THE PUBLIC. AND WHILE I'M WAITING FOR COMMENTS ON THE PUBLIC, I'D LIKE TO RECOGNIZE THAT IS IT FORMER OR CURRENT? SHARE OF THE MIND. ORDER INLAND NAVIGATION DISTRICT, MR[02:30:09]
QUARLES, AND HE ALSO WANTS TO MAKE A COMMENT. SO SHOVELER RECOGNIZE MR PLAZA. THANK YOU PASTURE AND DON'T MAKE THIS COMPANY THREE MINUTES, BUT, UM. FIND DID PARTICIPATE IN A GRAND FOR THE JUPITER INLET DISTRICT TO TAKE THERE. RAILROAD BRIDGE, AND THEY FLIPPED OVER TWO TRUSSES WHICH GAVE HIM I THINK 18 INCHES OF HAIF, WHICH A LOT ABOUT 80% MORE OF THE BOATS TO GET UNDER THE BRIDGE DURING. WHEN THE BRIDGE THAT THING WAS DOWN, IT WAS A MILLION DOLLAR GRANT THE DAY PARTICIPATING WITH AS YOU KNOW, WITH FINE GRAND STAIRS MATCH. JUPITER INLET. MR CAME UP WITH A MILLION DOLLARS AND WE WEIGH WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORT THE BRIDGE BEING. FIXED IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE WHERE THE BRIGHT LINE COMES HERE AND THE BRIDGES IS OLD AND NEEDS TO BE CHANGED AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND NEEDS TO BE UPDATED IN THE $90 MILLION THEY WERE ASKING FOR, I THINK WAS FOR A BRIDGE. ALSO THAT. WOULD HAVE HAD A STEEPER GRADE ON LEE FOR THE BRIGHT LINE BECAUSE THE FREIGHT TRAIN CAN'T GO UP THAT GREAT WHAT. THAT'S ALL I HAVE FROM. FINE SO I'M DON, QUASI. OH I LIVE IN 96 OUT THESE FIFTH STREET, STUART, FLORIDA AND I'M HERE TO REQUEST THAT THE CITY OF COMMISSION RELINQUISH ITS RIGHTS TO THAT SECTION OF AN EASEMENT.

]NEGOTIATE THE RFP FOR THE STEWART MARKET. THAT WOULD BE RESOLUTION NUMBER 50 DEATHS 2021 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA. RESTING AUTHORIZATION TO NEGOTIATE FOR RFP 2021 OH THREE. STUART MARKETS TOP RATE FIRM, STUART MAIN STREET OF STUART, FLORIDA, PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES. MADAM MAYOR. YES, SIR. THE SELECTION COMMITTEE REVIEWED THE APPLICATIONS. THERE WERE THREE APPLICATIONS FOR THIS ITEM. UM THE SELECTION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT YOU AUTHORIZE US TO NEGOTIATE A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH THE TOP RANKED UH, PROPOSAL, WHICH WAS MAIN STREET. THEY WERE DOUBLE THE POINTS THAT THE OTHER TWO APPLICANTS HAD APPLIED FOR.
THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN THIS THE MIDDLE THAT, UM, I WOULD LIKE TO GET SOME INFORMATION FROM THE COMMISSION FROM BEFORE WE GO INTO ACTUAL LICENSE AGREEMENT NEGOTIATIONS. IF IT IF YOU GUYS SO CHOOSE TO AWARD IT TO THEM. MOVE FOR MADAM, ARE I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS. OKAY,
[02:35:09]
HOLD ON. I'M HERE IN EMOTION, BUT I DIDN'T HEAR A SECOND. YOU'RE GONNA HOLD YOUR MOTION MY MOTION, OKAY? WANTING TO MR MARTIN, VICE MAYOR. NO. WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT. FOR I'D LIKE TO LET HIM TO ELABORATE ON THE COMMITTEE. UM. THE MAIN STREET MARKET COMMITTEE. UM I. YOU KNOW, IN HONESTY, I DO SUPPORT MAIN STREET. RUNNING AND I SUPPORT MOST OF THE R P. I HAVE A FEW PROBLEMS AND. I WOULD LIKE TO CONDITIONAL EYES THAT I'D LIKE TO SEE THIS CONDITIONAL IZED. ON A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION. IN OUR ANNUAL GRANT. THAT WE EXTENDED LAST YEAR. COVERT. TO MAIN STREET. BUT. IF MISS CALLAHAN COULD COME UP BECAUSE I AM CURIOUS. ABOUT THIS. WHAT AUTHORITY WITH THIS MARKET COMMITTEE THAT YOU SPEAK OF IN THE REPORT. I REALLY LIKE THAT IDEA. I DON'T KNOW. ONE WOULD.WOULD OUR EX OFFICIAL OFFICER FROM CITY OF STUART. SIT ON THIS COMMITTEE WITH THIS COMMITTEE HAVE CONTROL OVER THE MARKET. COULD YOU JUST GO INTO YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT? SURE, SURE. SO CANDACE CALLAHAN, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR STUART MAIN STREET FOR THE RECORD. UM SO. I THINK OUR VISION FOR COMMITTEE WOULD BE VERY SIMILAR TO HOW WE'RE ALREADY STRUCTURED WITHIN OUR BOARD. WE HAVE CERTAIN COMMITTEES THAT HAVE CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES TO HELP DRIVE AND GROW THE ORGANIZATION. AND TO HELP ME DO THE WORK BECAUSE I'M ONLY A ONE MAN TEAM. SO, UM, THE COMMITTEE WOULD BE NOT JUST. OUR BOARD MEMBERS A FEW, BUT I THINK THIS IS MORE OF A COMMUNITY EFFORT AS WELL. I WANTED TO BE MORE INCLUSIVE.
UM, DOES THE COMMUNITY BASED PROGRAM I WOULD THINK MUCH LIKE WE ARE, BUT IT'S AN EXTENSION OF OUR VERY OWN MISSION. SO I THINK HAVING SOME OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN THAT COMMITTEE.
AS IT IS GOING TO FALL UNDER A BANNER. AND THEN HAVING MAYBE EVEN SOMEONE FROM THE CREEK DISTRICT ON THAT COMMITTEE, IF I MEAN THIS IS OPEN FOR NEGOTIATIONS, THIS ISN'T ANYTHING. SET IN STONE. BUT IF THE CITY FEELS THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY WANT TO INCLUDE, WITHIN THEIR AGREEMENT WITH US. I DON'T SEE WHY THE BOARD WOULD BE OPPOSED TO THAT.
I MEAN, WE WORK SO CLOSELY ALONG THE CITY ALREADY ON A LOT OF OUR, YOU KNOW OUR INITIATIVES AND CAMPAIGNS AND PROGRAMS. UM BUT I ALSO WOULD LIKE MAYBE A RESIDENT TO BE ON THAT COMMITTEE, YOU KNOW, TO INTRODUCE THE NEW DON'T KNOW. LAYER OF. THOUGHT PROCESS AND LIKE SOME IDEAS, SOME VISIONS. IT'S NOT. I DON'T WANT IT TO JUST BE CANDICE'S VISION OR MAIN STREET DIVISION. I REALLY WANTED TO BE MORE INCLUSIVE IN TOW. AND WE HAVEN'T BEEN A PART OF THE GREENMARKET SORT OF SPEAK FOR A WHILE. SO GETTING THE MERCHANTS OR THE VENDORS INVOLVED AS WELL HEARING FROM THEM. WHAT ARE THEIR CONCERNS? HOW CAN WE ADDRESS IT? HOW CAN WE MAKE IT BETTER? I THINK THAT'S WHAT AH LOT OF THE CONCERN, WASP. HOW CAN WE GROW IT? AND I THINK WE AS AN ORGANIZATION HAVE PROVEN OURSELVES OF THE LAST 34 YEARS AS TO WHAT WE CAN DO FOR THIS CITY AND FOR DOWNTOWN. SO THIS IS JUST AN EXTENSION OF WHAT WE ALREADY DO. SO DOES THAT HELP A LITTLE BIT OKAY? YOU KNOW, I LOVE THE IDEA OF THE COMMITTEE.
I LOVE THE IDEA OF PERHAPS HAVING WE'RE GONNA NEED IT. UM, A RESIDENT WHO'S NOT NECESSARILY AT THIS TIME PART OF MAIN STREET, BUT THAT'S MADE PASSION ABOUT THE MARKET.
PERHAPS THE GENTLEMAN BEHIND ME, AND I KNOW IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ME AS WELL. HAVE. AT LEAST ONE OR TWO VENDORS OF THE GREENMARKET TO GIVE THEIR PERSPECTIVE ON THIS COMMITTEE.
YES, ABSOLUTELY, YOU KNOW. UM MS CALLAHAN. YOUR PROPOSAL. ALSO TALKS ABOUT NO HIRING.
MARKET MANAGER. AND THEN STAFF. PERSON THAN A PROFESSIONAL STAFF PERSON AND THEN. YOURSELF IN THE BUDGET, BUT YOU'RE PAYING YOUR PROPOSED BUDGET IS OUTLINED THE OTHER EMPLOYEES.
AREN'T BROKEN DOWN FOR PAYMENT THAT LINE. ARE YOU ASKING SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THAT LINE ITEM ON THE BUDGET? WELL, GUESS IN IF IT'S APPROVED IN THE FIRST YEAR, HOW MANY EMPLOYEES
[02:40:01]
IS MAIN STREET. LOOKING TO HIRE EXACTLY. EXACTLY SO I AM GOING TO NEED SOME HELP. I'VE ALREADY STATED THAT BEING A ONE MAN SHOW IS A CHALLENGE. UM. MY WORK ALREADY THAT I'VE BEEN DOING ON FLAGLER CENTER HAS STRETCHED MY TIME SO. WE HAVE A PART TIME EMPLOYEE WORKING WITH ME VERY PART TIME HELPING ME AT FLAGLER CENTER. UM, WE'RE. OF THE GREAT THE EXISTING OPERATORS ALREADY HAVE SOMEONE THAT THEY. HEY, ON A WEEKLY BASIS TO HELP THEM. DO THE DAILY OPERATION OF THE MARKET. DON'T THINK THAT WOULD CHANGE TOO MUCH OF WHAT OUR VISION IS, UM. PART OF MY TIME IS ALSO GOING TO BE TO HELP OVERSEE AND TO BUILD THAT BRAND AND TO GET IT UP AND RUNNING. SO. THE MARKET'S NOT NECESSARILY PAYING ME ITS MAIN STREET THAT WOULD BE PAYING ME YOU KNOW WHAT HE MEANS? SO I DON'T THINK THAT THAT'S THAT'S NOT GONNA BE NECESSARILY. I HAD TO ADD THAT IN AS A FACTOR BECAUSE IT IS A PART OF AGAIN. THE MY TIME IS.WORTH SOMETHING. UM, BUT. AT THIS POINT. IT'S REALLY JUST THE COMMITTEE THAT'S GOING TO HELP. DO THE BULK OF THE WORK TO GET THIS UP AND RUNNING, AND THEN WE HIRE THAT PART TIME PERSON TO HELP OPERATE IT CAUSE LIKE, UNFORTUNATELY RIGHT NOW, I CAN'T WORK SEVEN DAYS A WEEK.
SO TO HELP ME PART TIME T DO THAT OPERATIONS THE PROFESSIONAL STAFF LINE ITEM IS REALLY IF WE END UP HAVING TO SUBCONTRACT SOMEONE TO HELP. UM I DON'T KNOW. HELP US WITH A SPECIAL EVENT AT THE MARKET OR A SPECIAL. ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN SOMETHING THAT I AGAIN. HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO MYSELF BUT. IT'S JUST ANOTHER LINE ITEM OF SOMETHING THAT WE MIGHT NEED IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE I KNOW ONE CONCERN HAS BEEN THE PROMOTION OR THE LACK THEREOF OF THE MARKET, AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING IT RIGHT. SO. OKAY. IF I NEED TO HIRE SOMEONE TO OR CONTRACT SOMEONE. TO HELP WITH SOME OF THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES AND TOE REALLY EXECUTE THE PLAN. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT. I THINK IT'S WORTH IT. MM. HAVE A FEW COMMENTS JUST FROM MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS AGAIN. I CAN SUPPORT MAIN STREET. RUNNING THIS. I THINK THAT'S A GREAT WAY TO HAVE THE MARKET RUN BY OUR FELLOW COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
BUT I. YOU KNOW SOME OF THE CONDITIONS I SEE AS A COMMISSIONER BRUNER WHEN THIS WHEN YOU FIRST BROUGHT THIS UP ONE OF THE PROBLEMS WAS THE. THAT YOU WOULD MENTION I REMEMBER WAS THE MINIMAL FEE. STUART GREENMARKET PAID ANNUALLY TO THE CITY OF STUART.
WELL, THIS PROPOSAL IS LESS THAN THAT FEAT. YOU KNOW? IN NEGOTIATIONS. IF I'M TO SUPPORT THIS. WE NEED TO BE MAKING MAURA THAN THAT FI. ROUGHLY. BUT THE LARGER BENEFIT BESIDES HEARING FROM RESIDENTS ON FELLOW STAKEHOLDERS IN THE COMMUNITY OF RUNNING THE GREENMARKET. IS THE LONG TERM PLAN OF OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH STUART MAIN STREET. AND I REMEMBER COMMISSION MARTY BRINGING UP IN OUR LAST BOOK. BUDGET WORKSHOPS OVER THE SUMMER A YEAR AGO WHERE YOU DISCUSSED. DON'T STARTING THE PLAN LAST YEAR OF THE REDUCTION AND I DIDN'T SUPPORT THAT, THEN OF OUR GRANT TO THEM. UM BECAUSE OF COVERT. WHAT I CAN SUPPORT. STUART MAIN STREET RUNNING THE GREENMARKET IF THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION THIS SUMMER IN OUR GRANT. RESTORE MAIN STREET. UM. THAT WAS THE CITY'S LONG TERM PLAN IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM. I'M NOT SAYING THAT GRANT NEEDS TO ALL THE WAY AND FOREVER. BUT WE NEED TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THAT LONG TERM PLAN. THERE. ASSIST SERVANTS OF GOD. FIRST OF ALL CAN DECISION WAS TO SAY IT WAS A VERY THOROUGH AND I MENTIONED TO THAT UNDER WALKING AWAY AND IT WAS A VERY THOROUGH PROPOSAL AND. AND I THINK MAIN STREET HAS BEEN A GREAT ORGANIZATION. OVER THE YEARS. IT'S BEEN LIKE ANY ORGANIZATION HAD ITS UPS AND DOWNS AND BUTT AND I AGREED THAT THE GOAL. WITH BUT IF BY AWARDING THE CONTRACT THE MAIN STREET IS THAT WE REDUCE THE DEPENDENCE ON OUR BUDGET. AT THE SAME TIME. I DON'T AGREE THAT WE DO IT. IN THIS METHOD WE GET WE GET TO HAVE A BITE OF THAT APPLE EVERY YEAR DURING OUR BUDGET. AND WE DON'T KNOW RIGHT NOW. WHAT THE ACTUAL FINANCIAL OUTCOME IS GOING TO
[02:45:06]
BE IN THE NET. OUR MAIN STREET, ONE OF THE MY BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH THE PREVIOUS OPERATOR. HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE AMOUNT OF MONEY I REALLY AM NOT EVEN THAT CONCERNED ABOUT. THE MONEY THAT A FEW $1000 THAT WE GET FROM MAIN STREET OR FROM THE UPPER, BUT I'M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT HIS HOUSE WAS OPERATED IT AND WHAT I WANT TO SEE IS A PROFESSIONALLY. OPERATED MANAGED ORGANIZATION AND RUNNING THE MAIN THE MARKET AND SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A CONSISTENT. PRODUCT THAT WE HAVE ALL THE TIME NOW. WE'RE GOING TO AWARD THIS. UM WAY. GO AHEAD TOWARD THE EARTH TONIGHT. WE SELECT AUTHORIZED TO NEGOTIATE. WE'RE NOT AWARDING.THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY. TRY AND MY TONGUE WAS GETTING WE'RE GOING TOWARD THE OPPORTUNITY TO NEGOTIATE. AND THEN WE NEGOTIATE SOMETHING BY THE TIME WE GET THAT DONE, AND WE'RE GOING TO BE IN A RAID INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT BUDGET YEAR OR AND DURING THE SUMMERTIME. I MEAN, WHILE WE'RE COMING OUT OF THE COVE IT WHILE WE'RE JUST STARTING TO SEE THE FLAG WHERE CENTER HOPEFULLY STARTING TO COME BACK, YOU'RE STARTING TO GET SOME MORE EVENTS. I THINK THERE. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT WE SHOULD TIE THE NEGOTIATIONS. DIRECTLY TO OUR BUDGET. WE CAN DO THAT EVERY SINGLE BUDGET YEAR EVERY SUMMER. WE GET WE GET WEEKS THAT THERE. WE CAN WELL AND STAFF CAN SIT DOWN WITH RAIN STREET LOOKING GOOD. DISCUSS THE BOOKS. THE FINANCES IS AND DETERMINE WHERE WE'RE AT. AND ABSOLUTELY THE GOAL IS THE QUEEN. MAIN STREET OFFER BUDGET. BUT. WE CAN'T DO IT. WE CAN'T DO IT JUST BY ARBITRARILY JUST SAYING OK, WELL, WE HAVE A WAR. YOU HAVE THIS NEW PRODUCT SO. WE DON'T WANT TO SET MAIN STREET UP THE FAILED BY TAKING THIS SO AGAIN, I'M GONNA GO AHEAD AND MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE THE RESOLUTION AND GO FORWARD. KIDS. WAS I'LL SECOND IT? I HAVE A COMMENT. I TALKED TO CITY MANAGER AND I THINK HE MAY HAVE SPOKEN TO MR MARTEL. I JUST LOOKED AT SOME. THE LEGAL LANGUAGE ISSUES THAT PROBABLY NEEDED TO BE LOOKED INTO HIM CHANGE THEN. I DON'T KNOW IF MR MARTEL. RECOGNIZED THOSE OF THE CITY MANAGER. WE SHARED THEM WITH HIM. WE HAVEN'T ENTERED INTO ANY CONTRACT IT ALL ANOTHER RESOLUTION. IT WAS JUST SOME TIME. YOU'RE THE ITEM YOU SPOKE TO ME OUT IS THE NEXT ITEM. NOT THIS ONE. THAT'S THE NEXT ITEM. OKAY, I'M GOING TOO FAST. OKAY, SO THEY'RE CAUGHT ANY COMMENTS ON THE THERE'S BEEN EMOTIONAL SECOND. DID YOU GET THAT CLERK? YES. NINE SECOND FURTHER FOR A COUPLE MORE FOR A COUPLE QUESTIONS.
YEAH I WANT TO FOLLOW UP ON WHAT VICE MAYOR MATHESON. I HAD TO SAY I WELL, I ALSO REALLY APPRECIATE THE THOROUGH JOB. THIS LOOKS GREAT. JUST SEEING THE BRANDING. I RECOGNIZED THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT WENT INTO. CONCEIVING OF AN ENTIRELY NEW BRANDING SCHEME, WHICH IS GREAT THAT'S LIKE, GIVES ME SO MUCH JOY TO THINK ABOUT. SOME SORT OF GREEN MARKET THAT WE COULD BE PROUD OF A MARKET ON MAIN THAT WE COULD BE PROUD OF. SO I FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT THIS. I DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE'RE I'M JUST TRYING TO REORIENT. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS, I THINK. I GET TO GIVE MR DIA SOME DIRECTION AND WHAT OUR PRIORITIES ARE. I AGREE WITH YOU. I MEAN, I WAS ACCUSED OF KICKING IN THE TEETH OF OUR SMALL BUSINESSES BY SUGGESTING THAT WE. REDUCE OUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MAIN STREET OVERTIME. I'M STILL YOU KNOW, IT'S STILL WOULD LIKE US TO EVENTUALLY. YOU KNOW, UM. CONTINUE TO WORK ON THAT. BUT I DO THINK THAT WHEN I LOOKED AT THEIR THOROUGH. YOU KNOW, BUDGET WORKSHEET, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS, YOU KNOW YOU WENT THROUGH THE EXERCISE OF PLANNING OUT YOUR EXPENSES AND YOUR PROJECTED REVENUE. DON'T SEE THIS, AT LEAST IN THIS FIRST ESTABLISHING HERE AND EXTREME MONEYMAKER FOR THEM, SO I DON'T I THINK. I AGREE WITH YOU. I THINK WE NEED TO WORK TOWARDS GIVING MAIN STREET HELPING MAIN STREET. STAND UP ON ITS OWN. I DON'T SEE THE BUSINESS CASE HERE. 64,000 POTENTIAL PROJECTED INCOME AND 52 IN PLANNED EXPENSES. I COULD BE OPEN TO US SAYING LIKE.
WE'LL TAKE THAT DELTA AND MAYBE WE CAN ADVOCATE FOR SHORTENING THEIR BUDGET BY THAT THIS YEAR, BUT I DON'T SEE A HUGE. MONEYMAKER RIGHT NOW. I HOPE THAT IT WILL BECOME ONE SO THAT ULTIMATELY YOU CAN STAND ON YOUR OWN TWO FT. WITH THIS. THAT BUDGET WAS SAFE BUT EXTREMELY ACCURATE. I'VE RESEARCHED AND TALKED TO SO MANY OTHER MAIN STREETS THAT
[02:50:02]
ACTUALLY RUN THEIR OWN MARKETS THAT SIMILAR MARKETS IT'S SPOT ON. AND EVEN LOOKING AT THIS AND LOOKING AT THE AND LOOKING AT THE BEFORE PROJECTED BUDGET. YEAH I'LL TELL YOU THAT THE FOUR PS MAIN STREET FOR THE GARBAGE PAYS FOR THEIR FEET EVERY WEEK. AND WE DON'T CHARGE THAT SO RIGHT? ABSOLUTELY THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE THERE. WELL YEAH, I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT AS FAR AS DROP DRAWING IN THE REVENUE, IT'S NOT A GOLDEN GOOSE, AND IT'S NOT GOING TO BE FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I WANNA PULL THIS BACK. I. WHAT I'D LIKE. TODOS FOCUS ON SOME OF THOSE POINTS. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS JUST I WANT TO HEAR A LITTLE MORE ABOUT YOUR PLANS FOR THE INFRASTRUCTURE BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE SETTING ASIDE SOME OF THAT. OUTFIT FOR INFRASTRUCTURE, RIGHT? AND YOU MENTIONED TO KIND OF BENEFIT THE PARK AND MAKE YOU KNOW THE MARKET INFRASTRUCTURE. IS OUR WHOLE MISSION HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT HELPING DOWNTOWN AND HELPING THE CITY WITH CERTAIN PROJECTS. SO AGAIN, ALIGNING WHAT WE ALREADY DO. JUST ALLOCATING SOME OF THOSE FUNDS THAT DRAWS THAT WE DRAW IN FROM THE GREENMARKET TO PUT IT BACK INTO THE CITY. IT'S ALREADY KIND OF WHAT OUR MISSION IS AND WHAT ANY MONEY THAT WE RAISE GOES INTO DOING ANYWAY. JUST GENERALLY, THOUGH, SO IF IT'S SOMETHING LIKE SHADE STRUCTURES ARE REQUESTED, IF ANY MORE POWER I KNOW THE GRASS HAS BEEN A CONCERN. AS OF LATE. WE CAN HELP WITH THOSE THINGS. I MEAN, IT'S APART. NURSE SHIP, THE COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP, SO WE JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY IT SO THE INFRASTRUCTURE COULD BE HELPING TO DEFRAY THE COST THAT WE WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE TO INCUR. WE CAN LEVERAGE CERTAIN GRANT MONEY, WE CAN LEVERAGE A LOT OF OTHER THINGS. SO IT'S. JUST A LINE SO PERFECTLY AND I AND I DO I DO WANNA ALSO THINK ABOUT THAT THOSE ADDITIONAL BENNY'S THAT WE HAVE TRADITIONALLY PROVIDED TO THE MARKET. THE PREVIOUS MARKET OF THE TRASH IN THE UTILITIES AND DON'T KNOW. HOW DO WE FEEL? MAYBE. I MEAN, I WANT YOU TO SET YOU UP FOR SUCCESS. I REALLY DO. I DON'T WANT TO SET THE MARKET THE VENDORS UP FOR SUCCESS. I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THIS LIKE TWO OWNERS FOR YOU TO START, BUT I ALSO THINK WE SHOULD TRY TO FIGURE OUT A WAY. WHERE. MR DI ASSIST, EMPOWERED TO LIKE NEGOTIATE. TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE NOT PUTTING. TOO MUCH OF THE BILL FOREVER IN PERPETUITY. FREEDOM TO NEGOTIATE. YEAH, LIKE WE. AND MAYBE THAT YOU KNOW, WE CAN LIKE REVISIT THIS AFTER AN ESTABLISHING HERE SO THAT THIS ISN'T LIKE A CON POLICE THAT GOES ON, YOU KNOW SOMETHING THAT WE CAN SORT OF TEMPORARILY PURSUE THIS FIRST YEAR. AGAIN, THAT'S ALL PART OF THE NEGOTIATION AND FROM THE FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE, LIKE I SAID, WE GET TO REVISIT THEIR BUDGET EVERY EVERY SUMMER. YEAH, WELL, THEY'RE NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT THEIR THEIR ENTITLEMENT PAYMENT. I WAS SO IF WE GO BACK TO MY COMMENTS. I WANTED TO LET YOU GUYS KNOW BECAUSE THIS IS OUR ONLY SHOT. THAT I INTEND TO SEE REDUCTIONS. IN THAT BUDGET. THIS IS A TOOL JUST LIKE THE FLAGLER CENTER IN ACHIEVING THAT GOAL, I THINK. AS THE NEGOTIATIONS WERE TALKING ABOUT MR OUR STAFF DOES NEED SOME DIRECTION. FROM US RIGHT NOW. REGARDING YOU TOUCHED ON IT. UM. THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS ON WHAT DIRECTION WE'D LIKE TO GO IF THE GREENMARKET DOES STAY AT FLAGLER PARK. I KNOW WHAT'S COME UP AS THE GRASS WEARING DOWN I WAS DOWN THERE. DON'T BEFORE THE MEETING. UM MY DIRECTION WOULD BE. I WOULD NOT LIKE TO SEE THAT PARK TURNED INTO SECTIONS OF 10 FT. LOTS OF PAPERS. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THAT IF THERE IS INFRASTRUCTURE MONEY THAT IT'S EITHER MULCH OR CONTRIBUTE TO ANNUAL, RE SODDING OR SOMETHING I DON'T WANT. THAT GRASS TURNED AN IMPERVIOUS SURFACES, BUT I AM IN FAVOR AND THE WAY I READ THEIR REPORT WAS. GREENMARKET WOULD BE NEXT TO THE FLAGLER CENTER. AT THE PARK. I'M IN FAVOR OF THE WAY THAT REPORT WAS WRITTEN, BUT I KNOW. IN THESE NEGOTIATIONS, THEY NEED DIRECTION FROM US ON THE LOCATION. I'D LIKE IT TO STAY IN THE PARK. YOU KNOW WHAT IN THE PARK WHERE IT IS NOW? AND THAT'S S O THAT. DAVID, CAN I AGREE? OKAY? MADAM MAYOR, CAN I MAKE JUST A COUPLE OF BRIEF COMMENTS TO KIND OF. DEAL WITH SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS FROM WHERE OUR BOARD'S PERSPECTIVE WAS. OUR PROPOSAL. I'M MARK GRATEFUL THAT I'M THE PRESIDENT OF SURVEY STREET. UM. THE PURPOSE OF FIRST OF ALL, I THINK THEY DID A GREAT JOB ON A PROPOSAL AND A BUDGET CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE GOOD NUMBERS,[02:55:04]
YOU KNOW, WE ALL KNOW THAT AND I THINK MAIN STREET IS LOOKING FOR THE SAME THING THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR COMMISSIONER A MATH IS THAT WE'RE WE'RE LOOKING TOE. SUPPLANT A GRANT WITH THINGS THAT WE COULD DO FOR THE CITY AND GET PAID FOR THE ISSUE WITH THIS ITEM, AS IT CAME UP WAS. WAS HOW MUCH MONEY IS REALLY GONNA BE ON THE TABLE. AND, UH AND WE'RE FULLY. FULLY IN SUPPORT OF THIS BEING A SHORTER TERM AGREEMENT INITIALLY TOE SO WE GET A HANDLE ON THE NUMBERS. 20% PROFIT PERCENT WAS FOR YOU GUYS AS A COMMISSIONER AS A CITY TO DECIDE WHAT YOU WANT US TO SPEND THAT MONEY ON. IN OTHER WORDS, WHAT WE DID IS WE PUT A BASE AMOUNT IN THE BUDGET. WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE BASE AMOUNT THAT. THE GREEN MARKET HAD PAID PREVIOUSLY AND I KNOW THAT WAS ORIGINALLY 2000. I THINK IN THE LAST STUFF WE SAW IT WAS 1500. BUT OUTSIDE SAYING THAT'S HOW BAD IT IS THAT SOME OF THESE NUMBERS WERE NOT REALLY 100% SURE WHAT THE FINAL NUMBER WAS. BUT. BUT WE TRIED TO PUT THE NUMBER THAT WE WERE GETTING, AND THEN WE TOOK THE REST AND WE WERE ONLY ALLOCATING EXPENSES FOR THE ADDITIONAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE MARKET. AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO TAKE 20% OF THAT BOTTOM LINE AND BASICALLY SAY TO THE CITY WHAT DO YOU WANT US TO DO WITH IT? WHAT KIND OF IMPROVEMENTS DO YOU WANT US TO MAKE? WHAT KIND OF SUPPORT DO YOU WANT US? IT WAS KIND OF A.IF YOU WANNA LOOK AT THAT WE'RE REVENUE SHARE SO THAT WE COULD. YOU KNOW WE COULD FIGURE IT OUT.
AND THEN ONCE WE'VE GOT A YEAR UNDER OUR BELT WILL HAVE A MUCH BETTER IDEA OF WHAT TYPE OF NUMBERS WE REALLY HAVE. AND THEN THAT GETS INTO THE ISSUE, THEN WE'LL REALLY KNOW OF HOW MUCH OF THAT SERVICE THAT WERE. YOU KNOW, WE'RE TAKING AWAY FROM THE GRAND. SO THAT WAS OUR PURPOSE, AND WE'RE OPEN TO THAT IN ANY DISCUSSION ON THAT, UM, YOU KNOW FOR THE NEGOTIATIONS, BUT I JUST WANTED YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT WAS OUR PURPOSE IS TO COME UP WITH. YOU KNOW SOME NUMBERS, AND WE ALSO RECOGNIZE THAT WE WANT TO SEE A TRUE GREEN. WE WANT TO SEE A CHANGE IN TERMS OF A GROWTH OF THE MARKET, NOT NECESSARILY GETTING RID OF STUFF. BUT. WE WANT TO SEE A GROWTH. WE WANT TO SEE THE TRUE GREEN MARKET AND THAT MAY COST US SOME MONEY INITIALLY BECAUSE WE MAY CHANGE THE VENDORS, WE MAY HAVE TO GIVE SOME VENDORS SOME. YOU KNOW SOME ALTERNATIVE PRICING AND THINGS LIKE THAT TO GET THEM TO COME. WE HAVE SOME COMPETITION NOW WITH OTHER MARKETS. SO ANYWAY, I JUST WANT, YOU KNOW THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE WERE LOOKING TO DO. WANTED T O UM. SAY I'M GLAD THAT WHAT YOU SAID. AND THAT WE CAN. NEED THE TIME WE CAN COME BACK IN A YEAR. AS I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT BE VERY SUCCESSFUL, AND I REALLY APPLAUD YOU FOR SUCH A FIRST CLASS PRESENTATION. IT WAS EXCELLENT, BUT BY THE TIME WE GOT THROUGH IT, I'M THINKING WELL, THIS AIN'T NO GOOD. I DON'T WANT THIS, BUT YEAH, I GOT IT ANYWAY. IF YOU'RE REALLY SMART. I APPRECIATE THIS. AND LIKE COMMISSIONERS THERE, OKAY. THERE ARE HAPPY. SO LET THE MANAGER WORK OUT THE GARBAGE.
WHATEVER GONNA WORK OUT, BUT ALL RIGHT, I'M OKAY. NOW WHAT? STUART MAIN STREET. ARE YOU COORDINATED WITH THE OTHER ACTIVITIES FOR DOWNTOWN. IF YOU KNOW IT'S SOMETHING IS HAPPENING AT THE GREENMARKET AT THE FLAGLER CENTER. SOME OF THE MERCHANTS OR DOWNTOWN. YOU KNOW BY THE PARK, THE MPA THEATER, UM AT THE SAILFISH. DON'T HAVE THE FLAGLER CENTER CALENDAR.
YEAH. HOPE SO. YES YES, THE CALENDAR'S GETTING. YES YES. EVERY THE FLOOR WILL BE HAPPENING THROUGHOUT. SURE, HOPE SO. THAT'S THE GOAL. THANK YOU.

NEXT SIDE OF INSIDE HIM, NUMBER 15 AMENDMENT TO HUDSON'S ON THE RIVER. LAND
[15.
AMENDMENT TO HUDSON'S ON THE RIVER LAND LEASE (RC):
RESOLUTION No. 51-2021; A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE AN AMENDMENT TO THE LAND LEASE BETWEEN THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA AND HUDSON’S ON THE RIVER, PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
]LEASE AND I'M GOING TO TURN OVER TO THIS IS A RESOLUTION. THE CITY COMMISSION THE CITY STUART FOR AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE AMENDMENT TO THE LAND LEASE BETWEEN THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA AND HUDSON'S ON THE RIVER, PROVIDING EFFECTIVE DATE FOR OTHER PURPOSES. BRIEFLY THE TENANT. HUDSON'S HAS APPROACHED THE CITY ASKING FOR AN EXTENSION FROM MARCH UNTIL SEPTEMBER TO EXTEND THE WAS BASICALLY REFERRED TO IS THE INITIAL RENT PERIOD. DUE TO A DELAY RELATED TO SOME CONSTRUCTION. UNFORCED SCENE. PROBLEMS SUCH AS. THEY DIDN'T REALIZE THERE WAS A HOTEL BURIED UNDER FLAGLER PARK. SO WHEN THEY WENT TO RENOVATE, THEY WERE RUNNING INTO CHUNKS OF CEMENT AND OTHER THINGS THAT CAUSE DELAYS. WE DIDN'T KNOW IT EITHER. SO YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER KNOW. I THOUGHT IT WAS PUSHED INTO THE RIVER. IT TURNS OUT IT, WOZ, BUT I THINK THE WHOLE PARK WAS PROBABLY NOT THERE AND THEN, IN ADDITION TO THAT. UM HE HAD, UH, ALSO REQUESTED. EXTENSION TO THE TERM OF THE LEASE TO ALLOW TWO ADDITIONAL 10 YEAR OPTIONS TO BE ADDED TO THE END OF THE LEASE PROPERTY. UM, AND HIS. PROPOSAL FOR THAT IS BECAUSE HE PUT IT SIGNIFICANTLY MORE COSTS RELATED TO THE RENOVATIONS TO THE PROPERTY. THAT HE WAS PURSUING. AND THEN FINALLY AND LASTLY AS A COMMENT IT WAS ALSO HE WAS. OFFERING TO BUILD A PORTION OF THE DECK THAT'S GOING TO GO ABOVE AND BEYOND HIS. LEASED PREMISES THAT WILL STAY IN THE PARK. BUT. ACCORDING TO THE SITE PLAN, AND WHAT I'VE REVIEWED, IT WOULD STILL BE FENCED IN AND THE END WHERE HIS PROPERTY ENDS, BUT IT WAS MORE OF AN AESTHETICS IN A DESIGN FACTOR RELATING TO HAVING STAIRS KIND OF CREATING A SEPARATION. ENOUGH BUFFER BETWEEN THE RESTAURANT AND WHERE PEOPLE WERE, I GUESS AND THE BACK PORTION THAT HE WANTS TO ADD, IS ALSO OPEN TO THE PUBLIC OR WOULD BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. IT WOULD JUST BE AT HIS EXPENSE. NOW THAT THE CITIES AND WOULD BE MAINTAINED BY THE TENANT. AS WELL. BUT THAT'S THE DISCRETION OF THE BOARD. MIKE YES, THE DECK THAT WOULDN'T CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE THIRD AFGHAN BECAUSE IT'LL AND BILL BECAUSE, IN FACT, THERE WILL BE A LIKE IF YOU WENT TO THE RESTAURANT, ALTHOUGH THE SURFACE OF THE DECK WILL GO PAST WHERE THE RESTAURANT'S LEASES, THEY WILL LITERALLY BE A THREE FT FENCE, WHERE THERE WON'T BE DINING OR OR BOOZE SERVED OR ANYTHING PAST. WHERE THE LEAST AREA IS. THE DECK COULD BE USED FOR PUBLIC PURPOSES AS WELL AND TECHNICALLY EX SUPPOSED RESERVED THROUGH. COMMUNITY SERVICES. I WENT OVER AND LOOKED AND I SAW WHERE HE HAD TO RAISE THE FLOOR. I THINK, 22 JUST A TWO FT. 22 INCHES OUT. IT HAD A BIG EFFECT ON THE ROOF. HAVE A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON THE ROOF. YEAH DEAD IN THE EYE AND ALSO IN THE COST OF. OF EVERYTHING ELSE BECAUSE NOW AND SAID HE HAD TO BUILD THE STEM BALL. AND THEN OF COURSE, THE WHOLE DECK HAD TO BE 22 INCHES HIGHER AND. WAIT HONESTLY AFTER LOOKING AT AND THEN ALSO, I WENT OVER THERE A COUPLE TIMES WHEN HE WAS DIGGING UP THE HOTEL, AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE SOME OF THE BRIE I SAW. I DON'T I DON'T THINK. BECAUSE THE ADDITIONAL MONEY I DON'T I DON'T THINK IT'S UNREASONABLE. HE'S ASKING AND I SAW THERE WAS A I SAW THERE WAS. COMING IN
[03:05:01]
THERE THAT THERE WOULD BE AN APPRAISAL. SO COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT? YES THAT AND I THINK THAT COMMISSION MATHIS AND WANTED A LITTLE CLARIFICATION ON THAT AS WELL. WHAT WHAT IT SAID. IS THAT RIGHT NOW YOU GUYS HAVE A LEAST WITH HIM AND IT ENDS AND THERE'S ACTUALLY TWO OPTION PERIODS IN THAT LEASE. IF YOU WERE TO CONTEMPLATE AMENDING THIS LEAST TODAY APPROVED THE LEAST TODAY BEFORE. THIS THESE OPTIONS COULD BE EXERCISED AT THE END OF THE ORIGINAL LEASE, AND BEFORE THESE OPTIONS WERE TO START. IT WOULD BE AN APPRAISAL WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE PAID FOR THE EXPENSE OF THE TENANT. WHO DETERMINED THE FAIR MARKET VALUE. SO THAT THE PARTIES WOULD HAVE THE OPTION OF. VERIFYING OR RENTING THE RENT SHOULD BE RENTED AT FAIR MARKET VALUE. SO THAT ZEUS STILL A NEGOTIABLE TERM AND WHAT FAIR MARKET VALUE IS MY UNDERSTANDING IS WHAT WILL IN ONE WILLING PERSONS WILLING TO ACCEPT IT AND OTHERS WILLING TO PAY. NONE OF US WILL BE HERE. WELL BUT I THINK THE INTENT IS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S NOT UNDERVALUED AND UNDER RENTED AND I THINK WHOEVER THE COMMISSIONERS ARE AT THAT TIME IF THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANTLY DISPROPORTIONATE. VALUE TO RENT. THEY WOULD THEY WOULD FIX THAT, RIGHT? I THINK I AGREE. SO I PERSONALLY THINK AFTER LOOKING AT THE EXPENSE, ADDITIONAL EXPENSE. I'M FINE WITH IT, AND I'LL TELL YOU ONE OTHER THING THAT THAT YOU GUYS THAT.LIEUTENANT WASN'T HAPPY ABOUT WHEN I POINTED IT OUT TO HIM, BUT. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE ORIGINAL LEASE THAT THE CITY MANAGER NEGOTIATED WHETHER HE INTENDED TO THIS, WHICH I'M SURE HE DID. SO THE ORIGINAL LEASE SAYS IT'S X DOLLARS A YEAR AND ITS INDEX THAT CONSUMER PRICE INDEXING OF WHATEVER THE INFLATION RATE IS. HOWEVER. THEY ALSO ALWAYS 3% OF ANY REVENUE. ABOVE A CERTAIN NUMBER, BUT THAT NUMBER DOESN'T INDEX SO 10 YEARS FROM NOW.
THAT NUMBER IS ALMOST A REVERSE BECAUSE IT DOESN'T THAT NUMBER DOESN'T INCREASE WITH INFLATION.
SO 30 YEARS FROM NOW, THAT NUMBER IS GOING TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER THAN WHAT IS CONSIDERED NOW SO THE CITY WILL BE RECEIVING A SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER RENT SHARE FROM THE LANDLORD. WHAT SUM FOR THE COST OF THE COST OF THE 3% OF FOOD IS GOING TO GO UP.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT I MEAN. LIKE WELL, FIRST OF ALL, LET'S SAY HAMBURGERS $10. NOW IT'S FORESEEABLE. IF YOU DO THE RULES OF SEVEN IT AT A. 10% INTEREST YOUR MONEY DOUBLES EVERY SEVEN YEARS AT 7% INTEREST DOUBLES EVERY 10 YEARS. SO IF YOU SAY A $10 HAMBURGER AND IF YOU HAVEN'T INCREASES AT 10% EVERY SEVEN YEARS, IT'S GOING TO DOUBLE SO THE B 2040 80. 160 I BELIEVE IT'S NOT GONNA BE AT THAT RATE, BUT IF YOU HAVE A 3% INCREASE INCREASE IN A HAMBURGER THAT'S $10 RIGHT NOW IS $30.30 YEARS FROM NOW. YEP, THAT RED SHARE ISN'T GOING UP IT ALL SO IT WILL NOT. IT WILL LITERALLY BE SO LOW THAT IT WILL BE SURPRISING. I MEAN, GUARANTEED. HAVING THE 1ST 34 MONTHS OF THE PLEASE LEAVE. WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO SAY IS MR DICE IS A KEY NEGOTIATOR AND HE HAD FULL INTENTION OF THAT WAS LEAVING THAT ACCIDENTAL IN ANY AIN'T THE WAY IT IS RIGHT? BUT BUT THAT ALSO BENEFITS THE CITY BECAUSE THAT'S GONNA ALMOST ENSURE THAT THE RENTS FAIR MARKET. THE COMMISSION'S PROBABLY LOOK AT THAT. AND NOT WANT TO CHANGE THE RENT BECAUSE THEY'LL BE FORCED TO ALMOST DOUBLE OR EVEN TRIPLE THAT NUMBER OF THE RENT SHARE TO MEET. WHAT PRESENT VALUE IS SO MUCH FOR APPROVAL. I'LL SECOND FOR DISCUSSION. UM IT'S BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED. UM.
DISCUSSIONS CAN I BRING UP THE DISCUSSION? I HAD FOUND SOME LANGUAGE ISSUES. HOPING THAT THOSE COULD BE CLEARED UP SO THAT WE CAN OAKLAND. GIVEN THEM IT WAS THE DATES AND SOME OTHER TIME THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT THE MAYOR'S SIGNATURE, AND I LOOKED FOR IT, BUT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE IT IS ON THE LEASE. BUT OBVIOUSLY WE REVISED THAT FOR YEARS COMMENCEMENT DATE FOR THE MARCH, RIGHT? AND THEN I INCLUDED IT AND IT WAS INTENTIONAL. BUT WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN YOU WHEN YOU DO THESE AMENDED LEASES A NEW LEASE IS YOUR COMMISSION CHANGES. SO IF YOU DON'T INCLUDE, LIKE WHAT THE CURRENT LEASE I LEFT IN THERE, THE LANGUAGE THAT. HE WAS SUPPOSED TO PAY CONSTRUCTION READ THROUGH MARCH, AND THEN NOW IT'S EXTENDING AND STUFF LIKE THAT, AND THE MAYOR'S COMMENTS WERE WELL THAT MARCH HAS ALREADY COME AND GONE.
BUT IF YOU DON'T INCLUDE THAT, IN THE LEAST THE NEXT TIME WE DO AN AMENDMENT TO IT. THAT EXTENSION ALSO KIND OF DISAPPEARS AND FALLS OUT. AND IF THERE'S NEW PEOPLE ON THE BOARD, THEY DON'T REALIZE THAT THAT EXTENSION WAS GRANTED EITHER AND YOU LOSE. THE HISTORY THAT I DON'T CARE. WE CAN STRIKE IT. THERE'S A SINK IN THE GLADES TO BE WRITTEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT'S HAPPENED OR SOMETHING. AND THEN THERE WAS ANOTHER COMMENT ABOUT QUIET ENJOYMENT. ENJOYMENT IS A IS A. LANGUAGE THAT'S IN EVERY LEAST, BUT IT'S ALSO IN THE FLORIDA
[03:10:01]
CONSTITUTION AND STATE STATUTE. THAT ATTENDANT IS ENTITLED TO QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NEIGHBORS ARE ENTITLED TO QUIET ENJOYMENT. QUESTION OF WHETHER OR NOT THE PARK. I'M NOT SURE WHICH WAY IT GOES, BUT THE PARK CLOSES AT A CERTAIN TIME, AND WE HAVE A NOISE ORDINANCE. SO FROM QUIET ENJOYMENT, IT DOESN'T MEAN A BAND AS MUCH AS IT MEANS THAT THE LANDLORD, WE'RE NOT JUST GOING TO SHOW UP AND START. NOT GOING TO COME INTO WORK IN THE MORNING AND FIND US IN HIS KITCHEN EVERY DAY. STUPID AROUND. SO YOU KNOW, I HAD WORK TO DO QUITE ENJOYMENT GOES WAY BEYOND THE CONCEPT OF SOUND. THAT IT HAS TO DO WITH INVADING SOMEONE SPACE AND RIGHTS AND TIMING. THE LANDLORD GOING OVER TO CHECK THEIR TENANTS APARTMENT AT 10 30 AT NIGHT. WOULD NOT BE REASONABLY APPROPRIATE IF IT WASN'T AN EMERGENCY. AND THAT'S WHERE THE QUIET ENJOYMENT LANGUAGE PLAYS IN. ANY OTHER COMMENTS COMMISSIONER VICE MAYOR. GO AHEAD. COMMISSIONER MEYER WAY HAVE EMOTIONS, BUT I'D LIKE TO HEAR EVERYONE'S COMMENTS. UM. I WILL TOW FOLLOW UP ON THE POINT ABOUT THE REVENUE SHARE. I MEAN, ARE WE SETTING OURSELVES UP FOR FAILURE IN THAT, YOU KNOW MR BRADDOCK ITIS OR HIS. YOU KNOW, ARES ARE GOING TOE THEN IN 55 YEARS, COME BACK AND SAY THIS. YOU KNOW WE DIDN'T CATCH THIS.THIS IS CRAZY, AND WE WANT TO RE NEGOTIATE AND THEN WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO THIS WHOLE SONG AND DANCE AGAIN. IF I. WAS ONLY IMPRESSION THAT MY LANDLORD WOULD LOWER THE RENT.
I COME IN EVERY WEEK. YOU KNOW WHATEVER YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH. SO I'M NOT GOING TO SAY THAT HE'S NOT COMING BACK, BUT WE'VE PUT IT ON THE RECORD THAT IT'S. CONTEMPLATED AND INTENDED. IT'S NOT AN OVERSIGHT. PART OF THE REASON FOR AGREEING TO THESE TERMS. IS THAT THE COMMISSION ANTICIPATES THIS ADDITIONAL REVENUE BASED UPON AN INFLATIONARY CHANGE. THE REVENUE SHARE, OKAY, AND THEN. UNFORTUNATELY MR DIES HAVE STEPPED AWAY. BUT MAYBE STAFF FOR MR MORTAL YOU CAN ANSWER. I'M JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND BETTER ABOUT THE DECK AND THE FACT THAT IT IS ON. IT'S ON THE KIND OF EXPANDS BEYOND THE BOUNDARY OF THE LEAST PROPERTY, AND THAT IS WHAT MY ORIGINAL POINT WAS BACK IN THE DAY WHEN I WAS ASKING ABOUT. BEING UNCOMFORTABLE OF HAVING STAFF APPROVED THAT AND I MENTIONED SITE PLAN. WHAT I MEANT TO SAY WAS IT EXPANDED BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES OF THE LEAST PROPERTY AND I WANTED US TO BE ABLE TO OVERSIGHT OF THAT IT. LET ME ASK ME QUESTIONS. SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO JUST UNDERSTAND BETTER IS HOW DID HE. HE'S ALREADY BUILT THE THING HE'S ALREADY GOT THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE FOUNDATION THERE, DID IT, DID HE DO IT? ON HIS OWN. AND THEN WE CALLED HIM. DID WE GIVE HIM THE APPROVAL? AND THEN WE REALIZED OUR MISTAKE. I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. SUBMITTED A SITE PLAN WITH DESIGN AND PERMITTING. STEAM.
NICOLOSI IMMEDIATELY IDENTIFIED THAT THERE WAS PORTIONS OF THE SITE PLAN OUTSIDE OF THE LEAST PREMISES. ROUTED TO THE CITY MANAGER AND MY ATTENTION. WE MET WITH MR MADDOCK ITIS AND SAID THE THIRD AFGHAN PROHIBITS US FROM RENTING THIS OR THAT OF THE OTHER. HIS EXPLANATION WAS THAT WHEN THEY HAD TO MODIFY THE DRAINAGE DITCH, AND WHEN THEY WERE MODIFYING IT, IT WAS A MORE EFFICIENT DESIGN. SOMETHING ABOUT THESE STAIRS OVER HERE AND BECAUSE OF THE ACCESS ON THIS OTHER SIDE, AND JUST. AESTHETICALLY DESIGNING THE THING AND I SAID, OKAY, WELL, YOU CAN BUILD THE DECK AND IT COULD BE BUILT THERE, BUT THERE HAS TO BE EIGHT FENCE DELINEATING YOUR USE, ETCETERA, ETCETERA. HE DISCUSSED IT WITH THE CITY MANAGER. IT WAS MY 100 COMPRESSION THAT THE CITY MANAGER HAD MENTIONED IT TO. COMMISSIONERS ALONG THE WAY.
ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE WAS DOING IT, BUT IT ZIPPED BY THE WAY. IT'S NOT OVER. YOU GUYS CAN TAKE IT OUT. I GUESS YOU KNOW WHAT I'M AFTER IS THAT I UNDERSTAND WE NEED TO. WE NEED TO PROTECT OUR PUBLIC PROPERTY. WE NEED TO PROTECT THE PARK AND WE NEED TO PROTECT OUR INTEREST IN THE THIRD APP. HOWEVER I SERIOUSLY THINK ABOUT THIS 1ST 2ND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A NICE NEW RESTAURANT ON HISTORIC PROPERTY WITH A NICE NEW DECK AND TWO. GET AROUND THIS ISSUE.
WE'VE GOT A FENCE FENCE THAT'S GONNA GO SMACK THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF IT. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT SOUNDS CRAZY TO ME. SO WHY ARE WE DOING THIS ON OUR ON OUR. CRYING PARK IF WE COULD TAKE THE FENCE DOWN. FENCE WAS FOR ME BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT HIM SERVING TABLES. YEAH SO IS MY RECOMMENDATION. I JUST DIDN'T WANT SERVING TABLES ON THE DECK. WE COULD WE COULD TAKE IT DOWN AND RUN THE RISK OF HIM PUSHING TABLES OUT THERE. AND MAYBE HE DOES. MAYBE HE DOESN'T. BUT IF YOU THINK ABOUT LIKE COFFEES. GO DOWN TO DUFFY'S, DUFFY SAYS AN OUTDOOR PATIO. AND THEN. RIGHT WHERE THEIR PAPERS AND IN OUR SIDEWALKS STARTS. IS THE CITY RIGHT AWAY IN CITY PROPERTY. PUT SOME PLANTERS UP. YOU DELINEATE BETWEEN THE CITY
[03:15:01]
PROPERTY AND WHAT IS THE CITY PROPERTY WHERE THEY CAN FOOD, SERVED FOOD OR NOT SERVE FOOD, AND IT SEEMS TO WORK. MARIA'S. AS A PATIO DINING AREA THAT GOES UNDERNEATH AND WE'VE SAID LISTEN, THIS SIDEWALK AREA WE DON'T WANT YOUR SERVANT IF WE WANTED OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, SO THEY'RE DINING AREA. DOESN'T HAVE A FENCE BETWEEN THEM AND THE PUBLIC AREA, BUT IT SERVES A PURPOSE DURABLE. SAILORS RETURN SELLERS RETURN INSTEAD OF THEY HAD TO BUILD THE PATIO ON THE BOARDWALK IN ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE RIVER, BUT WHAT THEY'VE DONE IS THEY PUT UP FENCE UP IN A WALL IN BETWEEN. THEY'RE DINING AREA AND THE BOARDWALK AREA DOWN AT THE VERY.I JUST NORTH EAST CORNER. BUT ON THE. SOUTHERN PORTION OF IT. IT'S REALLY JUST WHERE THE DINING ROOM TABLES AND THEY HAVE KIND OF A STEP DOWN AND THEY COULDN'T COULDN'T PUT TABLES OUT. SO IT'S REALLY A DESIGN FACTOR AS IT RELATES TO THAT. THIS POLICY. IT'S A COMMISSION COMMISSION DISCRETION, MR MAYER HER BACK. I HAVE NOT BE THERE. HAD A FEW CONVERSATIONS WITH. MR MEDICAID IS ABOUT THAT AREA'S PURSUE. I WENT DOWN THERE AND LOOKED AT IT WITH HIM. AGAIN, I'D TOLD MR DIES. I WAS FINE WITH IT. I DON'T THINK THE FENCE IS GOING TO RUIN THE QUALITY OF THE RESTAURANT. IS COMING BACK AND ASKING US FOR A FEW THINGS, THOUGH, TO ADJUST AND HELP WITH KOBE. THAT SECTION WILL BE PUBLIC USE IN MY CONVERSATIONS WITH MR MEDIC ITIS. WE AGREE ON EVERYTHING HE WANTS THIS RESTAURANT FOCUSED ON KIDS. UM, ONE OF MY. LOTS OF PROPOSALS TO HIM THAT PERHAPS WE COULD MODIFY THE MOTION WAS THAT. WE COULD BRAINSTORM FOR THIS PUBLIC AREA OF THE DECK. TO DO SOME SORT OF TODDLER FEATURE.
FOUR KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF FOUR. SO YOU KNOW TALKING HIM THAT SANDBOX OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. THE REASON PEOPLE LOVE THE PELICAN OR I DID, I WOULD GO THERE. OLDER KIDS, YOU COULD SIT AND EAT, AND THEY COULD GO TO THE PARK. WHAT A TWO YEAR OLD? YOU CAN'T LET STRAY THAT TOO FAR FROM YOUR TABLE. BUT WE CAN'T WE CAN'T. MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT OF THE RESTAURANT BECAUSE NOW THAT WOULD BE A HEART. BUT MR MARTEL IF HE WANTED TO COULD HE PUT. SANDBOX THAT YOU GUYS WOULD HAVE TO ACCEPT IT. HE COULD PUT THAT IN THE PARK TO WE COULD PUT SWING SETS OR WHATEVER, BUT ON THAT, YES, WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT. BUT HYPOTHETICALLY IN THIS ENTRANCE AREA DECK AREA, HE COULD PUT SOME SORT OF ENGAGEMENT FOR THE KIDS THAT CAN'T STRAY VERY FAR FROM THE PARENTS THAT ARE EATING RIGHT AT THAT TABLE THERE. BUT IT WOULD BE AN ATTRACTION TO THE RESTAURANT THAT'S BASED AROUND HIS GRANDSON. AND ON A FAMILY FRIENDLY ATTRACTION TO BE PUBLIC. THANK YOU BE USED. NO WAY CAN'T WALK IF IT WASN'T A CONDITION THAT WASN'T CONVINCED IT WASN'T JUST THE RESTAURANT SHARING COULD GO UP THERE. SOME OF THE CONVERSATIONS I'VE HAD WITH HIM. I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT FENCE BEING THERE. THIS IS JUST ME, BRAINSTORMING. WITH MR MEDIC ITIS ON THIS PUBLIC BEACH. I DON'T KNOW THAT A SANDBOX IS THE RIGHT THING. I ASKED HIM TO JUST BRAINSTORM ON THAT I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD SUPPORT THAT. I THINK WE ALL WOULD HAVE TO AS A COMMISSION. BUT I SEE THAT FENCE IS STILL BENEFIT. UM. BECAUSE I COULD BE AT THAT TABLE AND I CAN'T LET MY TWO YEAR OLD GO PLAY AT THE PARK. BUT IF THERE WAS A FEATURE THAT BROUGHT HIM RIGHT THERE SEE THAT IS A BENEFIT WHAT I. WOULD LIKE IS A SENTENCE ADDED. TOO, THAT THE AMENDED LEASE AND I'VE SPOKEN WITH YOU, MR MARTEL, ABOUT THIS 30 YEARS FROM NOW, I DON'T WANT THE NEW COMMISSION TRYING TO GUESS OUR INTENTIONS. AND NO. IN ON PAGE SIX, SECTION FIVE OF THE LEAST TERM. WOULD LIKE A SENTENCE ADDED AFTER SENTENCE THAT YOU ADDED WHICH STATES. PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF THE ORIGINAL LEASE TERMS, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE TENANT WILL PAY FOR AN APPRAISAL TO DETERMINE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE PROPERTY AT THAT TIME. PERIOD. NO THAT'S WHAT'S IN THERE, BUT THAT IS NOT CLEAR ENOUGH FOR MAY. I WOULD LIKE THE SENTENCE ADDED AFTER THAT, THAT SAYS NET RENT WILL BE ADJUSTED TO FAIR MARKET VALUE. PERIOD. I DON'T WANT THERE TO BE ANY QUESTION. 30 YEARS FROM NOW, WHAT ARE INTENTIONAL? THE FIRST SENTENCE GOES SO FAR TO SAY AN APPRAISAL WILL HAPPEN, BUT THAT FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH, I UNDERSTAND THAT, UM LET ME SAY THIS, MR DAY IT'S GONNA BE HAVE ANY OBJECTION WORKING WITH THIS. DO WE ABSOLUTELY NEED DEFENSE? SIR, CAN WE HAVE DIFFERENT TREATMENT FEATURES? ABOUT EXTENSIONS. SO WHAT
[03:20:04]
TREATMENT FEATURES THERE HE WILL KNOW THAT HE CAN'T TRESPASS HIS TABLES INTO THAT TREATMENT FEATURE. BUT IT'S A SEAMLESS THING WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE A FENCE. AND YOU HAVE THE.AVAILABILITY FOR THE PUBLIC. WELL WE SEE A FENCE. IT'S MORE LIKE A THREE FT HIGH RAILING OR YEAH, IT'S A GREAT I KNOW, BUT HE'S ALSO OFFERED TO DO A PLANTER'S LIKE A PLANNER. BUT YES, SOMETHING SEAMLESS SAYS SOMETHING SOFT. YES IMAGINING A BIG DECK AND YOU JUST HAVE LIKE A. ARBITRARY SECTION THAT NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TO DO WITH. I MEAN AS A AS A PUP MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, NOT A RESTAURANT PATRON. WHEN I LOOK AT THAT YOU JUST HAVE TO SECTIONS AND THERE'S TABLES ON ONE AND THEN. WHAT DO WE WHAT'S THAT? THEREFORE SO IF THERE COULD BE MORE INVITING WHERE. PLANTERS AND A COUPLE BENCHES AND MAYBE IT WAS KIND OF A FOUR YEAR AREA. YEAH, ENTRANCE. YEAH BIG. YEAH IT'S NOT THAT THING, WHICH IS WHY IT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE WE'RE DOING IT TO COVER OUR TRACKS BECAUSE SOMETHING HAPPENED WASN'T IT WAS NOT THE CASE AT ALL. OKAY, BUT MY ASKED. GUESS COMMISSIONER BRUNER WOULD BE IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND THAT WE ADD. LINE NET RENT WILL BE ADJUSTED TO FAIR MARKET VALUE. SAID. SIX THIS IS PAGE SIX.
WHAT ABOUT MAYBE COMMISSIONER. WE'LL KNOW WHERE THE CITY ALL WE WANT. I WANT TO MAINTAIN THAT WE GET FAIR MARKET RENT. WHAT DO YOU MEAN MAKE? THE COMMISSION MAY CHOOSE THE MAID CHOOSE TO DO WE PRESUME THAT THE MARKET RIGHT NOW IS FAIR MARKET RENT. YES, AND I DON'T TRUST ARE IN. THIS IS OVER 30 YEARS INFLATION YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN THEORY, TRY TO KEEP UP WITH THEIR MARKET RED. BUT THEN IF YOU DOUBLE INDEX IT. SAYING THAT THE 3% OF GROSS REVENUE SHARE GOING TO THE CITY. IS GOING TO BE EXPONENTIALLY INCREASED BECAUSE ONCE IT ONCE INFLATION STARTS HITTING THAT NUMBER. WELL, LET'S SAY THAT RIGHT NOW, HE PROJECTS THAT IN YOUR MONTH EIGHT. I DON'T SEE ANY DETRIMENT IN IN 30 YEARS FROM NOW. READJUSTING IT. TOE BE APPRAISED. FAIR MARKET VALUE. I DON'T EITHER. I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE LANGUAGE.
I JUST WANTED TO BE CLEAR THAT THE INTENTION OF INDEXING IS THAT IN EVERY LEASE. YES I GET THAT. BUT 30 YEARS IS A LONG TIME. JUST TRUST THE ONE FACTOR OF INDEXING SO. THE CLARITY I'M GOING FOR IS AFTER 30 YEARS, IT'S A PRAISE. WE DID 40 YEARS FOR MULLIGAN'S. WE DID 99 YEARS FOR SAILORS RETURNER FOR THE FOR THE. MARINA AND WE DID 80 YEARS FOR THE APARTMENT'S BASED UPON GENERAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND INVEST JUST SO THAT FROM HER BACKGROUND PURPOSES, SO THEN HOPEFULLY 30 YEARS FROM NOW, THE COMMISSION SITTING UP HERE WON'T EVEN HAVE TOE ADJUST IT BECAUSE IT IS THAT FAIR MARKET VALUE UNLESS IT'S LOWER, BUT OUR INTENTIONS WILL BE KNOWN. MISSIONER OR VICE MAYOR, CAN I JUST SUGGEST I AGREE WITH YOU? I WE NEED TO CLOSE THAT LOOPHOLE BECAUSE, BUT CAN WE JUST SAY NET RENT? MAY THE COMMISSION MAY BECAUSE RIGHT NOW, WE DON'T HAVE A THERE'S NO BURBAGE IN THERE FOR US TO THREE. CHANGE THE RENT.
NET RENT MAY BE ADJUSTED TO FAIR MARKET VALUE, BASED ON THE. COMMISSION'S DECISION IN THE COMMISSION CAN MODIFY A FUTURE COMMISSIONER MODIFY THE LEAST ANYWAY. BUT AT LEAST THIS DOESN'T SAY WE HAVE TO. IT ALLOWS US TO, BUT I'M GONNA I'M GONNA SET MY CALENDAR FOR THAT DAY BECAUSE I'M GONNA COME TO THIS MEETING 30 YEARS FROM NOW. YEAH. WHAT ZOE'S GONNA BE THERE. IT'S SERIOUS. YOU'RE MADISON WAY CLARIFY THE MOTION BASED BY THE COMMISSION'S DECISION, AND IF YOU WOULD OBLIGE US TO SAY COMMISSIONS, DISCRETION, DISCRETION. YEAH, I'M GONNA RECEDE MY MOTION. YOU'LL START OVER. OK, WELL, YOU MAKE SURE THE MOTION MY MOTION IS TO APPROVE. WITH THE ADDITION OF THIS LANGUAGE. PAGE SIX. SECTION FIVE. UNDER LEASE TERMS. FOLLOWING THE SENTENCE PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF THE ORIGINAL EAST TERMS, THE PARTIES AGREE. THAT THE TENANT WILL PAY FOR AN APPRAISAL TO DETERMINE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE PROPERTY AT THAT TIME. NET RENT MAY BE ADJUSTED TO FAIR MARKET VALUE AT THE DISCRETION OF THE COMMISSION. THERE'S EMOTION BY COMMISSIONER METHOD VICE MAYOR MATHESON. SECOND BY MISSIONER MCDONALD. ARE THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM THE THIS COMMISSIONERS? IN THEIR DELIBERATIONS. LET'S HAVE COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC ON THE MOTION. I'M FRIED, CLAIMING TO
[03:25:10]
HAVE NEW STUART. IT HAS A PATRON. PELICAN AND I CAN'T WAIT TO THIS RESTAURANT IN MY FRIENDS. MY FAMILY MEMBERS THAT A VISIT, WOULDN'T IT BE NICE IF HE HAD THE PLANNERS AND THEN AROUND BENCHES SO. IF YOU'RE WAITING FOR A TABLE, YOU COULD GO OUT ON THE PUBLIC DECK. JUST SIT THERE, AND I DON'T MEAN BIG THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THE WATER. YOU KNOW, JUST A NICE PLOW EVER AND I'M NOT HAVE BLACK THUMBS, BUT THAT WOULD BE NICE. INBOXES WELL, THAT MEANS THAT KIDS THAT ARE PLAYING IN THE PARK GET UP THERE AND PLAYED TOO AND YOU KNOW, BUT JUST. SOME PLACE THAT YOU COULD JUST SIT AND WAIT FOR YOUR TABLE, YOU KNOW, AND THAT WOULD GIVE IT A NICE AND I'M ALWAYS SITTING FOR I MEAN, LOOK. THANK YOU, MR MORTAL. I HAVE A QUESTION. I THOUGHT ABOUT IT. OKAY SINCE IT'S THAT Z GONNA BE A PART OF THE PART THAT LITTLE EXTENSION. HE HAS HE'S GOING TO BE MAKING IT AND KEEPING IT MAINTAINED. WOULD ANY LIABILITY FOR CHILD OR SOME ADULT OR INJURED OR SLIP OR FOLLOW? WHATEVER. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT'S NOW? PART OF THE CITY'S JOINT LIABILITY BECAUSE WE'RE ALSO ALONG WITH THEM OFF. NOW IT'S THE CITY'S EXCLUDE, RIGHT. MM WILL HAVE AN INSURANCE POLICY. YES IT'S TOTALLY ENSURING THE AREA THAT WILL HAVE HIM HIS PRIMARY. THE DECK AREA. WHAT. WITHOUT A DOUBT THEY'LL THROUGH THE CITY TO BRUSH IT JUST WANTED TO BRING IT OUT. BUT ON THE DECK AREA BEYOND THE SCOPE OF HIS ACTUAL LEAST, THOUGH, JUST LIKE OUTDOOR BUMP OUT. THE CITY. WE'RE MAKING THE PEOPLE OF RESTAURANTS AND SURE THE SIDEWALK PORTION BETWEEN THE BUMP OUT IN THE RESTAURANT SO THAT IF SOMEBODY FALLS OR WHATEVER IT'S COVERED BY THEIR INSURANCE IS WELL TRAINED MEN.FRANKLY, THE CLAIMANTS LIKE TO SECRETLY. IVAN INSURANCE BETTER BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY. SO UNDER OURS. WE HAVE A SHORTER STATUE OF LIMITATIONS. THERE'S PREREQUISITES OF NOTICE LETTERS, AND THERE'S CAPS ON THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. CAME. THANK YOU.
I'M NO OTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THIS MATTER. I DID WANT TO SHAVE THAT, MR MADDOCK ARTIST SAID TODAY WAS HIS BIRTHDAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. THAT WANT. SO D THAT HUDSON IS HIS GRANDDAUGHTER. IF IT ONE LAST THING, AND IT WAS THE PUBLIC COMMENT FROM MRS MCBRIDE, DECK WILL TECHNICALLY BE UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE CITY MANAGER. SO. HE CAN DECIDE IF HE WANTS TO ADD OR TAKE THINGS AWAY FROM THAT AREA BECAUSE IT'LL. ESSENTIALLY IT'S KIND OF LIKE, THINK ABOUT THE RIVER WALK BACK DOWN HERE ON THE WATERWAY. THE CITY WANTED TO PUT BENCHES ON THE DECK RIGHT NOW. YOU COULD PUT BENCHES ON THAT DECORATOR. THAT'S WHERE MY PRIVATE LUNCH TABLE WILL BE. I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND A LOT ABOUT FROM THE BEGINNING. THANK YOU. AND I JUST WANT TO SAY I DID LOOK AT WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO DO, AND THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING AND.
I KNOW THAT THEY'VE SET A GOOD TONE IN TERMS OF THE. THE HOW THEY'VE BEEN STAYED IN. YOU KNOW WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING TO DO WITH HUDSON? SO. WE HAVE A VOTE TO GO THROUGH THE CITY CLERK.

ARE YOU SAYING THAT YOU WANTED TO GET A SURVEY OF THE PORTION OF THE ALLEYWAY THAT CONTINUES PAST THEIR PROPERTY LINE AND GOES ALL THE WAY TO HELP VALUE? OKAY? NO TALKING ABOUT JUST WHERE THE ALLEYWAY TURNS TO THE RIGHT. THEN THEY'LL BE A GAP BETWEEN THOSE. TWO HOUSES LIKE IT'S GONNA TURN RIGHT HERE. WE CAN ADDRESS THOSE THAT WHEN WE ADDRESS THE ALLEYWAYS IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, IT'S OFF THE STREET IS WITH.
IT'S TREATED IT LIKE FLORA BELLA. WHATEVER THE. IT'S WHERE MEDALS BUILD ALL THOSE HOUSES.
I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE TOE. THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EXTENDED PORTIONS. YOU KNOW, JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA THEN HAVE JUST THIS SHORT GAP THAT THE CITY HAS TWO. YOU MIGHT AS WELL I'M SUGGESTING THAT WE ABANDON THE WHOLE THING IF WE'RE GOING TO IF YOU LIKE, IF YOU SEE THERE WHERE THE TWO RED LINES ARE RIGHT, THE ALLEY WILL KEEP GOING THAT GOES ALL THE WAY THROUGH THERE. BUT I THINK WE MEAN WE DISCUSSED EARLIER THAT WE'RE WORKING ON AN ALLEYWAY. THEY HAD AT THE SAME TIME. WE MIGHT AS WELL LET THE THOSE JASON PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO AGREE.
