DO YOU SEE DUE TO THE SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT CHANGES SINCE THE ORIGINAL APPLICATION? THE APPLICANT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE STAFF WITH AN UPDATED COST ESTIMATE OR SITE PLAN. STAFFING THE CRB DEEMED THE APPLICATION INCOMPLETE AND IS SEEKING FURTHER BOARD DIRECTION. WITH THAT BEING SAID THE APPLICANT IS HERE THIS EVENING AND HAS PROVIDED ME WITH A QUOTE TO RECOVER THE AWNINGS. AND THEN THE TOTAL COST OF THAT IS 10,300 . SO IF WE WERE TO MATCH THAT IT WOULD BE THE $5150. AND OBVIOUSLY, HE CAN GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL WITH POSSIBLE QUOTES THAT HE MAY HAVE RECEIVED SINCE THEN. UM, STAFF IS REQUESTING THE BORDER EXCEPT ALL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GRANT DISBURSEMENT TO THE OCCUPANTS AND GUIDANCE ON TREASURE COAST AUTO MACHINE.

UNDER ZERO ESCAPE THE ORANGE LOOKING ONCE THE POMPOUS, THE GRASS AND THE MILLIONS AND THE SAGE. I AGREE WITH THOSE AND PROBABLY DURAMED. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS. IS IT JUST LIKE A PRETTY PICTURE, OR IS IT SOME SPECIES THAT SHOULD FIT UNDER UM , OR LANDSCAPING CODE OR ZERO SCAPE OR THOSE ARE THE SPECIFIC UM, LANDSCAPING CHOICES OF FLOWERS THAT THE ABSENCE OF CALIFORNIA POPPY, IT'S THE ORANGE PHOTO THAT YOU CALIFORNIA POPPY.

[00:15:03]

[2. CRA BUDGET AMENDMENT #02 TO FY 2023; PARKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (RC): RESOLUTION No. 04-2023 CRA; A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING BUDGET AMENDMENT #02 TO THE FY 2023 CRA BUDGET FOR ACQUISITION OF A PARKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN THE AMOUNT OF $40,000 FOR IMPROVED PARKING ENFORCEMENT IN DOWNTOWN; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.]
PRESENTATION OF THE COMMUNITY. SORRY THE BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THE, UH, PARKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. BUT ALL ARE YOU DOING THAT? YES. PANEL GANDHI SOLVED US HERE, A DIRECTOR FOR THE RECORD, THIS IS A BUDGET ITEM BRICK REQUEST TO PURCHASE A PARKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR PARKING ENFORCEMENT TO OFFICIALLY TRACK THREE HOUR PARKING IN OUR DOWNTOWN. THIS EQUIPMENT WILL BE MOUNTED ON THE OUTSIDE OF OUR ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES SO THAT THE LICENSE PLATE CAN BE EASILY READ AND DETERMINE IF THERE IS A VIOLATION. THE GOAL OF THIS EQUIPMENT IS TO HAVE A HIGHER TURN TURNOVER FOR THE VEHICLES PARKED IN OUR DOWNTOWN ALSO TO CHANGE PARKING BEHAVIORS FOR OUR LONG TERM PARKER'S AND HAVE THEM PARKED OUTSIDE OF THE CORE AREA . WE HAVE PLENTY OF PARKING SPACES AVAILABLE ON OCEAN AND THEIR PARKING LOTS AVAILABLE.ALSO. ESPECIALLY THE WELLS FARGO BUILDING IN THE EVENING. UM SO THIS WILL PROVIDE A BETTER EXPERIENCE FOR OUR DOWNTOWN VISITORS, UH, TO FIND SHORT TERM PARKING IN OUR DOWNTOWN AND STILL ENJOY THE SHOPPING AND DINING EXPERIENCE IN DOWNTOWN. THE CAUSE OF THIS SYSTEM IS ABOUT $40,000. WE DO EXPECT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF TICKETS ISSUED WITH THIS NEW SYSTEM. SO THAT ADDITIONAL REVENUE WILL HELP OFFSET SOME OF THAT LICENSING FEES. THAT'S UH, THAT THAT HAPPENS EVERY YEAR. UH THIS WAS SUPPORTED BY THE PARKING COMMITTEE THAT WAS ORGANIZED WITH THE HELP OF MAIN STREET. UH THAT GROUP FELT STRONGLY THAT THIS WOULD BE THE STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION TO HELP CHANGE THE PARKING BEHAVIOR IN OUR DOWNTOWN AND ALSO WITH THE IT WILL HELP WITH FUTURE PARKING GARAGE. ON MARCH 7TH. THE CRB DID RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE BUDGET AMENDMENT, WITH THE VOTE OF 5 TO 2 AND STAFF IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NUMBER OH 4-2023 FOR BUDGET AMENDMENTS. FOR APPROVAL SECOND, AND I HAVE A QUESTION THAT WE HAVE A MOTION BY VICE CHAIR. BRUNER SECOND BY BOARD MEMBER CLARK AND REMEMBER CLARK.
OKAY, SO, MISS SENT. KATHY STABBED US. BUT OKAY, HAVING SERVED US UM AH. CAN WE MAKE AN AGREEMENT THAT WHEN THE PARKING ENFORCEMENT. THEY'RE NOT IN YOUR EAR THERE IN OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT COMMUNITY SERVICES. BUT SOMEHOW I THINK THROUGH YOUR AREA YOU COULD COME UP WITH
[00:20:01]
FLYER OR SOMETHING. LET'S SAY THAT SOMEBODY COMES FROM SOMEWHERE, AND THEY'RE HERE AT THE MEETING OR CONFERENCE OR JUST A LUNCH OR WHATEVER. AND THEY HAPPEN TO PARK SOMEWHERE, AND THEY'RE THERE FOR MORE THAN THREE HOURS, AND THEY GET A BAD TASTE IN THEIR MOUTH AND THEY GET A TICKET AT THE CITY OF STEWART. BUT IF THAT TICKET CAME , EVEN IF IT'S FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME, OR IF WE ALWAYS HAVE IT, SO THAT WHENEVER SOMEBODY GETS A TICKET, THEY GET THIS INFORMATION THAT THERE'S A PARKING GARAGE AT THE WELLS FARGO. THEY'RE ALL THESE PARKING LOTS AS A TROLLEY SYSTEM, WHATEVER IT IS A LITTLE FLYER THAT HAS TWO SIDES ON IT THAT HAS SOME INFORMATION SO THAT WHEN THEY GET A TICKET, THEY GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY. AND THAT THEY WILL HOPEFULLY BE SMARTER. THE NEXT TIME THEY COME DOWNTOWN TO PARK I AGREE. 100% WE ARE WORKING ON IMPROVING OUR BROCHURE AND MARKETING MATERIAL. WE DO WANT THEM TO HAVE A GOOD EXPERIENCE. WE DON'T WANT THEM TO LEAVE, YOU KNOW WITH THE TICKETS, SO THAT IS SOMETHING STAFF WILL BE WORKING ON A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO. COMMISSIONER CHRIS COUGH TALKED ABOUT THAT, UH WHERE HE HAD GONE SOMEPLACE AND YOU GOT A PARKING TICKET AND, ALONG WITH THE PARKING TICKET WAS LIKE A WRECK CARD TELLING HIM WHERE HE COULD PARK BUT I JUST DIDN'T REALIZE WE HAD A PARKING GRADUATE WELLS FARGO. I WAS ONE OF THE NO VOTES. AND I THINK IF WE'RE DOING THIS TO HELP WITH OUR PARKING THEN WOULD WOULD USING PUNISHMENT TO DO SO. AND I THINK THAT. IF WE WANT TO DO SOMETHING, THEN WE SHOULD IF IT'S THAT MUCH OF A PROBLEM FOR OUR DOWNTOWN MERCHANTS WE SHOULD CHARGE FOR PARKING IN A CERTAIN AREA, AND THEN THERE'S AN EXPERIENCE OUT. WE DON'T CHARGE BUT TO ME THIS IS THIS IS GONNA BE LIKE THE PARKING METERS WERE YOU'RE GONNA GET COMPLAINTS AND YOU'RE GOING TO STOP DOING IT BECAUSE I THINK OUR MERCHANTS WHILE I THINK THEY WANTED FORCE MINT THEY REALLY JOKES AND I'M I'M MAD AT BILLY OPPOSED TO PUNISHMENT. OVER LETTING THE MARKET DECIDE HOW TO TREAT IT AND THAT THIS IS A MARKET PROBLEM. THEN YOU CHARGE FOR A SCARCITY. BUT TO THAT POINT. SORRY. CAN I SPEAK? I MEAN, IF WE WERE TO PUT IN PARKING PAID FOR PERKINS. SOME POINT WE WOULD NEED TO PUT IT IN ENFORCEMENT BECAUSE PAID FOR PARKING LIKE WE HAVE TO HAVE THIS SYSTEM. AT THAT POINT, ANYWAY, UP AND GOING WELL, NO, BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE PAID PARKING, BUT THEN YOU GET A TICKET AUTOMATICALLY AUTOMATICALLY WILL IF YOU IF IT'S PASSED, THE GUY SEES ITS PAST AND YOU GIVE ME A TICKET, SO THAT'S WHAT HAS TO ENFORCE IT. THEY CAN USE. THIS ISN'T THE FORESKIN SYSTEM. IT'S NOT THE ENFORCEMENT OF IT ITSELF. SAVING, UM AH! A COP. AN EXTRA CUP THAT DOESN'T SPEND HIS WHOLE TIME DOING THAT. WELL, IT'S PARKING ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS ENFORCEMENT. YOU GUYS HAVE HAD THE PARKING ENFORCEMENT DISTRICT IN YOUR COACH FOR PEPPER FOR A REALLY LONG TIME. AND SO THIS IS THE MECHANISM FOR ENFORCING THAT CODE. NOW PANEL CAN ELABORATE ON THE COMMITTEE THAT WAS FORMED OUT OF THIS GROUP TO EVALUATE OUR FUTURE PARKING UP TO A GARAGE SYSTEM AND THAT ORGANIZATION THAT GROUP WAS SPECIFIC ABOUT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE LACK OF ENFORCEMENT THAT'S GOING ON IN THE THREE HOUR PARKING AND ADAMANT ABOUT NOT WANTING PAID PARKING. THAT'S COME OUT OF THAT CITIZEN GROUP THAT PANELAS WORKING WITH THAT THIS GROUP ASKED TO HAVE FORMED THIS THIS MECHANISM. ALL WE'RE DOING IS CHANGING THE TECHNOLOGY . WE HAVE THE PARKING ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS SO THEY HAVE A HANDHELD DEVICE. ALL THIS IS DOING IS CHANGING THE TECHNOLOGY FROM THE HANDHELD DEVICE. TO LICENSE WRITER READER SYSTEM SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO AROUND WITH A HANDHELD DEVICE AND TAKE PICTURES OF PEOPLE. PEOPLE'S TIRE STEMS. HOW DOES THAT WORK, THOUGH EASY CAMERAS OR WHAT IS WHAT IS THIS LICENSE PLATE READERS ON THE ON THE VEHICLE AND THEY TAKE THE GPS LOCATION OF YOUR CAR WHERE YOUR LICENSE PLATE IS AT AND THEN DRIVING AROUND IN THIS? GOT IT ON? YES. YEP. AND WHEN THE NEXT TIME THEY MAKE THEIR LOOP, THEY KNOW HOW LONG THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING THERE. AND THEN WHAT WILL START CATCHING THAT ARE HANDHELD ONE DOESN'T DO IS THE LEAVING THE DISTRICT FOR ONE HOUR, A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL GO AND MOVE THEIR CAR. AND IT'S THAT'S MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO CATCH WITH THE HANDHELD DEVICE, BUT WITH THIS DEVICE, I DON'T KNOW. YOU HAVE TO HAVE YOU HAVE TO BE OUT OF THE DISTRICT FOR ONE HOUR BEFORE YOU CAN COME BACK IN PARK. WE STILL HAVE THAT TO ME. I AGREE WITH YOU. THAT SEEMS STRANGE. DISLIKE THE GOVERNMENT TRYING TO PUNISH PEOPLE. WHEN. I DON'T REALLY THINK THERE IS A PARKING PROBLEM BECAUSE I ALWAYS FIND THE PARKING SPACE AND IN FACT THE LAST TIME AFTER THE CRB MEETING. I DIDN'T MOVE MY CAR FROM IN FRONT OF THE RAILROAD TRACKS TOO CYNICAL, POPPING LOT AT FIVE O'CLOCK AND HAD NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER. SO I THINK THIS IS ALL LIKE A BIG MYTH THAT WE HAVE IN IN STUART PAYING SOMEBODY. WE HAVE TWO PARKING ENFORCEMENT[00:25:06]
OFFICERS. WELL 1.5 ONCE PART TIME ONCE FULL TIME. I GOT A PARKING TICKET DOWN HERE LAST SUNDAY. I PAID IT BEGINNING TICKETS TIME. YES WE ARE GIVING TICKETS. NOW. IT'S JUST CHANGING THE TECHNOLOGY ON HOW WE DO IT. UM I'M OKAY. HOW MANY TICKETS HAVE WE GIVEN BLAST LAST MONTH? HOW MANY IDEA I THINK TO MOST, SAID 214. WE GAVE 214 TICKETS AND WE SHOULD BE GIVING MORE THAN THAT'S ENFORCEMENT. PROBLEM OF THE AGENT. NOT SO MUCH A TECHNOLOGY PROBLEM. OH, NO, I DIDN'T MEAN THAT FOR ME. LET ME FINISH. FOR ME. IT'S NOT ABOUT THAT. IT'S ABOUT THE FACT THAT THAT IT'S SO SIMPLE AND EASY. LET ME IT'S NOT TRYING TO GET MORE TICKETS AND MORE MONEY.THIS IS THE TECHNOLOGY IS QUITE FANTASTIC. IT'S AMAZING. I LIKE IT. IT'S A DIFFERENCE OF WALKING DOWN AND TAKING A PICTURE OF EVERY SINGLE PERSON IS TIRE. AND THEN DOING IT AGAIN. 2.5 3 HOURS LATER AND JUST TAKING A PICTURE BECAUSE IT'S TAKING A PICTURE OF THE VALVE STEM OF THE TIRE TO MAKE SURE IT'S STILL IN THE SAME LOCATION AND LOGGING EACH AND EVERY CAR AS YOU GO DOWN VERSUS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. YEAH THAT WAS THE FIRST TECHNOLOGY OF THE CHALK MARKS. THIS TECHNOLOGY IS THE HANDHELD, AND NOW WE'RE COMING IN THE 21ST CENTURY WITH LICENSE PLATE FLINTSTONES. OKAY BUT I MEAN, IF WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE TICKETS, AND MAYBE THAT'S ANOTHER CONVERSATION. OKAY SO THAT'S A CODE WHITE MYSELF. LADIES FIRST. OH, GIVE THEM LET ME FORGET WHAT I THINK, YOU KNOW. NO I WAS GONNA I AGREE WITH BECKY ON THE MODERNIZATION BUT ALSO AT THE SAME TIME. WE, UM YOU KNOW, I IF WE NEED THAT THING, CAN WE JUST USE IT FOR THE TECHNOLOGY AND I GUESS THEY'RE PROBABLY GOING TO GET INFORMATION TO GIVE A TICKET. BUT IF WE COULD DO A YEAR OR SOMETHING WHERE WE I DON'T KNOW . WE'VE BEEN GIVEN TICKETS SO WE CAN'T STOP GIVING TICKETS SHOULDN'T GIVE US MORE OPPORTUNITY. AS I SAID, WE COULD USE IT AS SOME TYPE OF EDUCATIONAL THING, TOO. UH MAKE SURE THAT UM WE GATHER INFORMATION THAT COULD ALSO HELP US IN THE FUTURE TO DECIDE HOW MUCH PARKING WE NEED, YOU KNOW, KINDA GET INTO THAT WHOLE INFORMATION GATHERING THING, BECAUSE WE SEE HOW MANY CARS ARE MOVING BACK AND FORTH IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA AND HOW LONG PEOPLE ARE STAYING AND WHEN THEY'RE MOVING AND THAT KIND OF THING, SO THAT WILL BE USED FOR THAT INFORMATION TO BUT BASICALLY IT'S STILL GOING TO BE USED FOR IF YOU DIDN'T MOVE YOUR CAR, YOU CAN GET A TICKET. RIGHT? AND IT'S MOSTLY LARGE EMPLOYEES THAT ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT. SO THEY ARE PARKING THE THREE HOUR PARKING, SO WE REALLY WANT TO PUSH THE DOWNTOWN EMPLOYEES TO PUT TO PARK OUTSIDE. SO THAT'S AND TAKE THE TRUCK. AND MAYBE WE NEED. I DON'T KNOW BETWEEN MISS CALLAHAN OR ANYBODY IN THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT OR WHATEVER , PROBABLY WE NEED TO GET WITH OUR MERCHANTS AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO LET THE PEOPLE BE THERE. AND EVEN IF WE HAVE TO GET THE CHARLIE TO PICK UP PEOPLE THREE OR FOUR TIMES A DAY FROM THE WELLS FARGO AND BRING THEM OVER TO THEIR JOBS AND THE RESTAURANTS OR WHEREVER THEY WORK, UM YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD WE SHOULD DO THAT WE SHOULD WORK TOGETHER. CHRIS OKAY, SO MORE TECHNICALLY. WITH RELATED TO THIS. PACKAGE OR SOFTWARE.
HOWEVER, THIS WORKS WERE PAYING 40 GRAND UP FRONT AND THEN 10 GRAND A YEAR TO ONGOING LICENSING FEES THAT THE ARRANGEMENT THAT YOU HAVE PROPOSED WITH THEM. IS THERE A TIME FRAME ON IT IN TERMS OF NUMBER OF YEARS. ONCE WE BUY THE SYSTEM, UM, THE ONGOING OUT THERE. THAT WOULD BE YEAH, AS LONG AS WE'RE USING THEIR SOFTWARE, WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY THAT THAT FEES. IS THERE A TIME FRAME, THOUGH, AND WHAT YOU'RE PREPARED TO SIGN WITH THEM. IS IT A ONE YEAR CONTRACT? 3 10,000 , JUST ON THE ANNUAL BASIS, OKAY . AND THEN IS THERE. IS THERE THE ABILITY FOR THEM TO RAISE THAT RATE? AS THEY SEE FIT. THEY COULD THEY COULD. YEAH BUT AGAIN , WE EXPECT TO PAY THE ANNUAL FEES THROUGH THE INCREASE IN NUMBER OF TICKETS THAT THEY WILL BE ISSUED. SO THERE WILL BE AN OFFICER SORT OF INTRODUCTORY RATE. THEY GET YOU ON THE HOOK.
YOU GET YOUR YOU KNOW YOUR SYSTEM SET UP FEE STARTS GOING UP EACH YEAR. DO YOU HAVE AN ANSWER? JUST LIKE ANY LICENSING SOFTWARE LICENSING DEALS LIKE MICROSOFT OR ANY OTHERS. THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE THAT, OF COURSE, INCREMENTAL INCREASE IF YOU DECIDE TO KNOW WHAT YOU NO LONGER WANT TO PAY TO PLAY OFTEN WITH ME. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR ONE OFTEN THEY JUST WON'T SUPPORT IT ANYMORE. YOU CAN STILL USE IT, BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO SUPPORT YOU OR GIVE YOU THE UPGRADES TO IT ANY MORE SO THAN IF YOU CALL THEM THEN YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THE
[00:30:04]
ADDITIONAL SUPPORT, AND THAT'S HOW MOST OF THAT SOFTWARE WORKS. SOME OF IT. SOME OF IT HAS WHAT'S CALLED KEY. TURN OFF TO WHERE YOU STOP PAYING, AND THEY HIT A SWITCH IN YOUR SOFTWARE STOPS WORKING, BUT EITHER WAY, THEN YOU JUST NOT USING THEIR SOFTWARE ANYMORE. YOU'RE GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE AND DOING A DIFFERENT PRODUCT. BUT YOU YOU'RE NOT LOCKED INTO 10 YEARS.YOU'RE USUALLY IT'S ANNUALLY AND IT'S BASED ON YOU BEING BUDGETED IN YOUR IN YOUR BUDGET CYCLE.
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAW WHEN YOU WERE LOOKING AT THIS ARRANGEMENT , NOT THIS PARTICULAR ONE. BUT THAT'S THE MOST EVERY SOFTWARE THAT I'VE DEALT WITH. IT IS THAT'S THE WAY THEY'RE STRUCTURED. FOR ME THIS JUST. IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE THAT SMALL TOWN. CHARM BANKHEAD. MAYBE I'M BEHIND THE TIMES. BUT EVEN IF IT'S PROFITABLE, WHICH IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS JUST SEEMS LIKE IT'S NOT STEWART TO ME AGAIN. IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT ABOUT PROFITABILITY, SO I KNOW I KNOW THE ULTIMATE DECISION. WRITING THE TICKET IS WITH THE PARKING ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. HAVE A QUESTION. THIS IS SOMETHING WE'RE DOING ALREADY. YES MORE EFFICIENT, GREAT. OKAY MOTION, OKAY? SECOND RICH. THANKS. PLEASE SPEAK INTO YOUR MIKE. UM I AGREE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND. MR CAMPANIS. CONCERN WE ARE CURRENTLY. OF TICKETING PEOPLE WHO STAYED TOO LONG IN A PARKING SPOT. ISN'T THAT CORRECT? YOU SEEM TO BE IMPLYING WHERE IT'S BECOMING EVELYN, EASIER IS NOT SOMETHING WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO GENERATE MANY MORE TICKETS, WHICH WILL MAKE PEOPLE NOT WANT TO COME DOWNTOWN. PEOPLE DON'T COME DOWNTOWN, THEN IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER WE ISSUE TICKETS OR NOT. I JUST FEEL THAT YOU'RE PUNISHING PEOPLE. INSTEAD OF EDUCATING PEOPLE. BUT IF THERE IS A ASKED ME A QUESTION, I'M SORRY. SO IF THERE IS A NEED FOR PARKING SPACES, AND WHY DON'T WE USE A MARKET, THE MARKET WOULD SAY YOU CHARGE FOR THE SPACES THAT ARE NACIO. WE CHARGE FOR THE SPACES THAT AREN'T FLAG. AND THEN THE REST OF FREE. AND IF THOSE SPACES ARE NOT GOING TO FILL UP THEN YOU KNOW, YOU REALLY DON'T HAVE A MARKET. YOU DON'T REALLY HAVE A PROBLEM OF PARKING SPACES. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE NOT WANTING TO PAY TO PARK. THAT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA GIVE SOMEONE A TICKET. WHO'S WHO'S BY WELLS FARGO. BECAUSE WE EXTEND RIGHT DOWN TO THEIR SO. TO ME, I JUST I JUST THINK IT'S PUNISHMENT.
AND IT'S NOT USING OUR MARKET. TO MAKE A DETERMINATION AND OF COURSE, I GOT A FIVE TO VOTE WITH ME AND MR MCCHRYSTAL AND I EXPECT TO GET A YOU KNOW, ALWAYS 61 HERE. OKAY, JUST BECAUSE WE ARE CURRENTLY PUNISHING PEOPLE. BUT NOT TO THE RATE THAT WE WOULD IF THE SYSTEM IF YOU LEAVE YOUR LEAVE THAT SPACE OR GO SOMEWHERE ELSE COMMISSION ACCOUNT. HE'S PUTTING THAT BUZZWORD IN THERE. MIKE WOULD YOU STEP UP? IF YOUR VIEW WOULD STEP UP TO THE MICROPHONE? IF YOU MOVE TO A DIFFERENT SPACE AS IMPLEMENTING PUNITIVE PUNISHMENT TO ANYBODY WITH A PARKING TICKET? IT IS A RELATIONSHIP THAT SAYS THERE'S A THREE HOUR POSTING THAT THEY CAN'T PARK MORE THAN THREE HOURS. THEY PARK FOR FREE FOR THREE HOURS AFTER THREE HOURS THEIR SUBJECT. TO A PARKING CITATION. PROVIDE RELATION OF THAT AGREEMENT, NOT JUST FOR VINDICTIVE PUNISHMENT IF YOU DID, UH, THIS VERSUS, UH, YOU HAVE TO BUY A PARKING PERMIT. COULD YOU CAN'T IMAGINE THE UPROAR OF YOU'RE UNLIKELY TO HAVE A RANDOM PERSON FROM PENNSYLVANIA NOWHERE TO BUY A PARKING PERMIT SO THE TOURISTS WOULD HAVE A TERRIBLE TIME WITH IT. MR COMPANIES. COMMENTS ARE NOT RELATED TO SO MUCH THIS TOOL AS MUCH AS THEY'RE RELATED TO THE CONCEPT OF WHY ARE WE DOING ? THIS IS IT THAT WE ARE TRYING TO DECIDE WHETHER WE SHOULD CHARGE TO PARK IN DOWNTOWN IS IT ARE WE TRYING TO RESOLVE AND OVER PARKING PROBLEM IN LIEU OF BUILDING A PARKING GARAGE? OR IS IT THAT WE ARE TRYING TO FIND A MORE EFFICIENT MEANS? TO MANAGE THE THREE HOUR PARKING IN DOWNTOWN. I MEAN, IT'S SO IT'S A MATTER OF APPROACH. I'M GONNA GO AHEAD AND WEIGH IN FOR A SECOND.
I JUST FINISHED ME. I DIDN'T REALIZE YOU WEREN'T FINISHED. OKAY, GO AHEAD. I'M GONNA WEIGH IN SO I MEAN, ARE YOU GOING TO CHANGE THE WAY THE TICKET LOOKS THE PARKING BUT IT'LL STILL BE THE SAME. I MEAN, IF I GET A TICKET, I DON'T KNOW THAT THE CITY OF STEWART, I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THE CITY OF STEWART HAS ISSUED 270 CITATIONS THAT MONTH OR 400. I DON'T REALLY CARE.
[00:35:02]
YEAH I SO I'M JUST HAVING A I'M HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME UNDERSTANDING THIS IDEA OF WE ARE BEGINNING TO PUNISH PEOPLE. BECAUSE WE ARE YOU CALL IT PUNISHMENT. WE CALL IT A TRAFFIC CITATION. UM AND I'LL LET THAT REST ON THAT POINT I OTHER CONCERN IS MY FINAL. I'M SORRY.MY FINAL CONCERN IS THE DISTRICT. SO LET'S SAY I GO TO THE MUSEUM HERE FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF. AND THEN I HAVE A RESERVATION AT OAK AN EMBER. AND I GO PARK. SO I'M HERE FOR 90 MINUTES AND I GO UP THERE FOR TWO. TWO HOURS AND I NOW HAVE I MY GUILTY OF A PARKING VIOLATION BECAUSE THAT'S CONFUSING DEPENDS ON DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU PARK SO THERE IS PARKING SPACES DOWN HERE THAT ARE NOT IN THE DISTRICT. WHO KNOWS THAT IT'S ON EVERY STOP BLOCK. STOP IT. AND THEN THE SIGNS OF FRONT OF YOU WHETHER OR NOT YOU'RE IN THE THREE OUR DISTRICT OR NOT, OKAY, PEOPLE WOULDN'T THINK RIGHT FROM 13 HOUR PARKING TO A DIFFERENT SPOT AND STILL BE IN VIOLATION.
THAT'S THAT'S WHAT'S CONFUSING. THAT'S CONFUSING TO ME EXIST TODAY IN THE CODE CITATION FOR PEOPLE WHO MOVE THEIR CARS WITHIN THAT THREE HOURS AFTER THREE HOURS, AND IT'S THAT WE'RE NOT THE ONLY PLACE THAT HAS THAT IT'S PRETTY COMMON. UM FISH. I'M DONE. THANK YOU. SO MAJESTY.
BOARD MEMBER COMPANY. I AGREE. OH, AND I DISCUSSED THIS IN THE PAST AND MY DISCUSSIONS REGARDING PARKING GARAGES THAT WE SHOULD BUILD A PARKING GARAGE MAKE THE PART, YOU KNOW, PUT THE PARKING GARAGE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TRACKS MAKE IT FREE. AND THEN HAVE PREMIUM PARKING ON GARCIA, LOW STREET OR FLAGLER OR SOMETHING TO DRINK, GRAVY AND PARKING WITH A PRICE WHERE TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO USE THE FREE PARKING IN THE GARAGE, AND THEN WE HAVE THE ENTERPRISE FUND IT PAYS FOR PARKING FROM THE PREMIUM PARKING THAT BEING SAID , I'VE NEVER GOTTEN ANY REAL TRACTION OUT OF THAT. AND EVEN IF WE SAID TONIGHT WE WERE GOING TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I WOULD STILL BE SUPPORTIVE OF THIS. I THINK THAT THIS PARKING ENFORCEMENT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY. THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT THERE THAT FLAGRANTLY BREAK THE RULES. I MEAN, WE CAN SIT THERE. WE HAVE REPEAT OFFENDERS OVER AND OVER WITH THE PARKING ENFORCEMENT. I THINK AT SOME POINT DON'T WE HAVE ESCALATING FINES? YEAH SO I MEAN, THERE'S PEOPLE AND I MEAN, WHERE DID COULD YOU GIVE US A CAN YOU COME UP TO US WHAT THE FINE STRUCTURE IS I DON'T KNOW THE BETWEEN BUT I DON'T START TO 25 MINUTES OF 500. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE INCREMENTS ARE IN BETWEEN UP TO THE POINT OF BOOTING YOUR CAR. PUTTING THE BOOT ON YOUR CAR? YEAH. YOU KNOW, AND THEN THERE'S THIS. GAME OF WHAT THE EMPLOYEES IN DOWNTOWN ESPECIALLY SOME OF THE BUSINESS OWNERS, A WITH THE, UH, WITH THAT. THE PARKING TICKET SIDE OF THINGS, BUT I THINK THAT OH, BUT MR COMPANY HAS AN ABSOLUTELY VALID POINT FROM THE POINT OF THE PAY SIDE OF THINGS , BUT I ALSO THINK THAT THAT IMPROVING THE TECHNOLOGY MAKING OUR PARKING ENFORCEMENT JOBS OFFICERS JOBS EASIER. AND MORE EFFICIENT. UH IT'S NOT A BAD THING AND THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS IS WE ALSO ASKED THE PARKING COMMITTEE TO LOOK AT THIS. THIS THIS IS A RECOMMENDATION AND THIS IS COMING FROM THE DOWNTOWN FROM WHAT FROM THE DOWNTOWN PARKING COMMITTEE. SO THIS IS THE SAME SYSTEM THAT THE CHIEF HAD PROPOSED A YEAR. WHATEVER AGO IT HAS ALSO HAS THE ABILITY TO FLIP TO WHERE IT'S NOT A, UM , UH, TO WHERE IT'LL FLIP TO DO THE PAID FOR PARKING ENFORCEMENT SIDE. SO IT WILL WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER TECHNOLOGY TO DO THE ENFORCEMENT OF PAY PARKING. IF YOU WENT NEVER TO PAY PARKING. DON'T WANT TO GET MORE PARKING TICKETS. I DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU ANY PARKING TICKETS. I WISH WE DIDN'T HAVE IT. PERIOD THIS WILL GIVE. MANY HAVE TO HAVE IT. THAT'S NOT MY GOAL, THOUGH. DON'T VOTE YES. OKAY SO ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS MOTION? I WOULD. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY IT'S A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER I ON OSCEOLA STREET. I WOULD NOT WANT THIS IN FRONT OF MY BUSINESS. I DON'T WANT ANYTHING THAT WOULD GET IN THE WAY OF PEOPLE WANTING TO COME TO MY OFFICE TALKING ABOUT YOUR OFFICE. YES WE DON'T DO THAT. I KNOW, BUT I'M SAYING IF I WAS IN THIS DOWNTOWN AREA, I DON'T WANT ANYTHING THAT WOULD GET IN THE WAY OF PEOPLE WANTING TO COME DOWNTOWN AND SPEND THEIR MONEY AND SPEND TIME SPENDING THEIR MONEY SO THAT OUR BUSINESSES CAN THRIVE AND I KNOW THAT THERE'S A PARKING PROBLEM BUT AT THE SAME TIME ANYTHING THAT GETS IN THE WAY OF BUSINESS . I THINK IT'S A BAD IDEA, BUT OKAY MICROPHONE. IT'S ALSO ABOUT . YOUR EMPLOYEES. PARKING IN FRONT OF THIS IS IMPRESSIVE

AH 1.8 MILLION IN TERMS OF THE ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION FOR STREETSCAPE. DO YOU KNOW ROUGHLY WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THAT IS GRANT ? IF ANY, VERSUS WHAT THE CITY
[00:55:03]
IS ON THE HOOK FOR RIGHT. ARE WE RECEIVED ABOUT $580,000 IN TAP GRANTS FOR THAT? AND SO THE ADDITIONAL WOULD BE ON A NOTE THAT WOULD BE BUDGETED IN FISCAL YEAR. 2024 THEN SORT OF GOING DOWN LIGHT ITEM LIKE THAT. HOW ABOUT SEMINAL STREET? THAT'S ALREADY BUDGETED THIS YEAR. AND THEN THE OKAY. COMPLETE STREET. AT 4 TO 5 MILLION FOR ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION. THAT'S UM, THAT'S GOING TO TAKE ABOUT A YEAR OR TWO YEARS TO FINISH THE DESIGN, WORKING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.UM, SO WE WILL BE DURING THAT TIME WILL BE LOOKING FOR GRANTS, SO WE WOULD LIKE TO GET AT LEAST HALF OF IT TO BE FUNDED THROUGH GRANTS. AND THEN THE REST WOULD BE A BANKNOTE WOULD BE C R A WOULD BE MATCHING GRANTS FROM THE C R A RIGHT TO BE CRE, AND THEN WE WOULD TRY TO GET GRANTS.
OKAY MLK STREETSCAPE BANKNOTE OR IS THAT SNOW? IT WOULD BE SOMETHING I WOULD BUDGET. OKAY AND THEN GUY DAVIS, I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT BANK NOTE. THAT WOULD BE THE NOTE RIGHT? JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT DEBT WITH THE SIERRA. AND THEN SAME KIND OF THING WITH THE STATEMENT SIDEWALKS THAT'S COMING OUT OF THE SIERRA VERSUS A NOTE RIGHT THAT I'LL BUDGET FOR NEXT YEAR.
