[COMMENTS BY CITY COMMISSIONERS]
OKAY COMMENTS BY COMMISSIONERS. UH, COMMISSIONER RICH I'VE KNOWN THIS EVENING. THANK YOU, MR MAYOR. COMMISSIONER COLLINS. JUST BRIEFLY. I KNOW THAT. I WANTED TO SAY, SORT OF A FEW THINGS THAT I THINK ARE COMING TOGETHER IN TERMS OF TOURISM PARKS. I HAD TALKED TO MIKE MORTELL ABOUT THIS A LITTLE BIT. BUT SITTING ON THE TOURISM DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL I SEE THEM, PUTTING A LOT OF ENERGY INTO ECOTOURISM. THEY'VE CREATED A NEW OFFICE AND HIRED SEVERAL DIFFERENT EMPLOYEES. AND I BRING IT UP IN LIGHT OF HANEY CREEK. I KNOW. THERE'S PROBABLY A DEAL BREWING FOR A CAR WASH OVER THERE. I'M NOT. I HAVEN'T GOTTEN INTO THAT WITH MIKE AT ALL. BUT I JUST WANTED TO, YOU KNOW, WITH A SHORT MEETING TONIGHT JUST KIND OF BRING SOME CONVERSATION TO ANY CREEK AND THAT PROPERTY AND YOU KNOW MY HOPES THAT THAT COULD BE SOME SORT OF TRAILHEAD AND, UM HAVE MORE DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THAT PARK. IN CONTEXT, ALSO OF BRINGING A FEW THINGS TOGETHER HERE, BUT THE HALF CENT SALES TAX THAT'S BEEN IT'S BEING CHAMPIONED RIGHT NOW BY FORMER COMMISSIONER MATHESON. THROUGH MARTIN COUNTY FOREVER. WE'LL SEE HOW THAT GOES. BUT I WOULD LOVE TO SEE US HOPEFULLY NOT JUMP INTO ANYTHING. CONSIDERING THAT THAT HAVE SINCE SALES TAX FOR OUR PORTION. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THAT WOULD BE WHAT COULD BE A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF MONEY? THAT COULD HELP. YOU KNOW? CREATE LIGHT INFRASTRUCTURE AND HANEY CREEK AND SORT OF REMOVED THE NEED TO HAVE A CAR WASH SITTING THERE WITH THE MONEY THAT WOULD BE COMING IN. AS WE DON'T HAVE ANY REAL GREEN SPACE. WE'RE GONNA BE PURCHASING. IT DOESN'T REALLY THAT HAVE SOME SALES TAX PURPOSE FOR BUYING LAND WOULDN'T REALLY THAT'S HOW I SEE IT MORE AS SORT[00:05:01]
OF BUILDING OUT OUR PARKS. BUT, UM. YOU KNOW, WE'LL SEE WHEN THAT COMES FORWARD, BUT I JUST WANTED TO SORT OF PUT IT IN EVERYBODY'S AWARENESS THAT THERE ARE A FEW COMPONENT PARTS BREWING THAT IF THEY CAME TOGETHER LONG TERM AND THE EXAMPLE I USED IS CENTRAL PARK.YOU KNOW, IT MAKES THAT REAL ESTATE AROUND CENTRAL PARK. INCREDIBLY VALUABLE IS THAT PARK AND, UM I'M SURE THE PEOPLE THAT ARE COMING OUT OF HANDY CREEK. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A TRAILHEAD THERE AND, YOU KNOW, DEVELOPED PARK SPACE THROUGH THAT PRESERVE VERSUS A CAR WASH. BUT THAT WAS ALL. COMMISSIONER CLARK. HI. THANK YOU. UM. I JUST WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
BUT IS YOU HAVEN'T MADE A MOTION OR SAID ANYTHING, BUT THAT WOULD BE FOR US TO CONSIDER ACQUIRING.
THAT PROPERTY, THE TWO ACRE PROPERTY AND ADDING IT TO THE ALREADY OWN IT CURRENTLY, I MEAN, JUST JUST ACQUIRING IT AS USING IT AS PARK AND NOT GOING OUT TO THE PUBLIC, LIKE WITH THE EXACTLY RIGHT NOW WE APPROVED AND MAYBE MIKE, YOU CAN SPEAK FORMALLY TO THIS. WE APPROVED GOING OUT POTENTIALLY TOO BIG WITH THAT CAR WASH REFERENDUM WAS HELD. AND IT WAS PUBLICLY AND A RESPONSE CAME INTO THE CAR WASH AND RESOLUTION WAS AUTHORIZED BY THE CITY COMMISSION FOR THE CAR WASH TO DO SOME DUE DILIGENCE AND DETERMINED WHETHER IT'S FEASIBLE OR NOT, AND THEY HAVE BEEN DOING SO AND THEY'RE PROBABLY GONNA BE COMING BACK TO YOU WHEN THE QUESTION WILL BE HERE AT THAT POINT. TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT YOU'RE GOING TO RENT IT TO THEM AND WHAT THE RATE IS AND WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD BE AND JUST TO CLARIFY THAT REFERENDUM SAYS. NOT THAT WE MUST BUILD THAT UP, BUT THAT WE CAN WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY HAVE THE OPTION TO IF WE WANTED TO. WE COULD VERY WELL IF WE CHOSE, UH, MAKE THAT A FORMAL PARK NOT BE. IT'S NOT A MANDATE TO DO ANYTHING. WE HAVE THAT OPTION AUTHORIZATION TO DO IT. EXACTLY THANK YOU. PROBABLY USING THE WORD ACQUIRED WASN'T THE RIGHT THING. BUT YEAH, WHETHER WE CAN CHANGE IT WITHOUT GOING BACK TO ANOTHER REFERENDUM. CAN I INTERRUPT YOU AGAIN? MIKE? DO YOU HAVE ANY ROUGH? I KNOW YOU PROBABLY DO OFF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD SENSE OF WHAT THAT HALF CENT SALES TAX PORTION WOULD BE FOR THE CITY. JOLIE MIGHT FROM LAST TIME, BUT I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE THE TOP OF MY HEAD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE SALES TAX REVENUES WERE. BUT I MEAN, YOU HAVE SENT SALES TAX CITY PORTION AND I'M PUTTING. SO IT RAN FOR TWO YEARS WAS. THE CURRENT WAS ABOUT A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. THE CURRENT IS PROPOSED FOR 10 YEARS. UM, MARTIN COUNTY FOREVER IS WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING. THIS WAS IN FIVE YEARS. IT WAS ABOUT A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR, RIGHT? SO TODAY IT'S STILL THE SAME PERCENTAGE. RIGHT IT'S IT DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH PEOPLE SPEND MONEY ON AND WHAT THERE'S BEEN MONEY ON. THINGS ARE MORE EXPENSIVE, SO YOU'D ASSUME THAT IT WOULD BE INFLATIONARY IN NATURE. RIGHT SO AGAIN, JUST AND I ALREADY SAID I WAS DONE TALKING, BUT JUST FOR US TO CONSIDER THAT THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE PASSED AND BE AN OPTION AS NOT TO RUSH INTO, YOU KNOW, DEVELOPING THAT FOR THE NEXT 99 YEAR. LEASE TYPE THING WAS JUST MY SENSE. THAT I WANTED TO PUT OUT. THANK YOU. UM, MR MAYOR CONTINUE. OKAY, SO, UM. I KNOW THAT WE HAVE A LOT OF ITEMS ON THE CONSENT AGENDA. AND I HAD SENT A NOTE TO THE CITY MANAGER THAT BECAUSE THESE ITEMS, UH TO ME OR SO IMPORTANT AND VITAL TO OUR COMMUNITY AND WHAT THEY DO IN THE LONG RUN. UM THEY MIGHT SEE MONDAY INTO JUST SIGN THESE AGREEMENTS, BUT I WANTED BOTH OF POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT TO KIND OF JUST GIVE A BRIEFING ON EACH ONE OF THESE ITEMS, SO I WANNA PULL ITEM NUMBER 2345. AND SEVEN UM. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE THAT RIVERSIDE PARK NEIGHBORHOOD BRIEFLY DISCUSSED ALSO BY STAFF, EVEN THOUGH IT'S JUST, UH UM, AGAIN. IT'S SOMETHING THAT THAT, UH HAS BEEN A PART OF ANOTHER GRANT, AND WE'VE APPLIED THROUGH UM, ANOTHER AGENCY AND SOME, BUT I STILL WANT TO DO TO PULL THOSE ITEMS AND JUST TO HAVE POLICE AND FIRE JUST TALK ABOUT THEM BRIEFLY, AND THEN THE OTHER THING WAS THAT IN THE AGENDA IN ORDER TO CHANGE YOUR AGENDA, THE . THE CLERIC CUSTOMER HAVE AUTHORITY. SO I FOUND A SPELLING MISTAKE IN THE MINUTES FROM THE LAST MEETING, AND IT'S DONE A GENE HELL TONIGHT, HBO L T O AND
[00:10:03]

IT'S HERE AND ITEM NUMBER ONE. SO WHEN THAT ITEM NUMBER ONE IS A PROVED THAT WE, UM WE APPROVE IT WITH THE WITH THE CHANGE OF THE CORRECTION FOR THE NAME IN THERE , AND THE OTHER THING IS THAT THE CHRISTMAS PARADE IS COMING UP. THIS SATURDAY FROM MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC, AND I MUST SAY THAT THIS FRIDAY THE FIRST PART OF THE FIRST AND I MUST SAY THAT I DON'T KNOW. I THINK IT WAS BEFORE. THANKSGIVING I NOTICED THAT MILTON HAS BEEN BUSY, AND I THINK HE WENT FURTHER THAN BEFORE. BUT MAYBE I'M WRONG. I THOUGHT I SAW STUFF WHERE ANY EAST OCEAN BOULEVARD AND WAIT ON ON COLORADO. BUT MAYBE IT'S THE SAME THING. I'M JUST NOTICING THEM. BUT I KNOW THAT WE'VE BEEN PREPARING AND WORKING AND WE WORKED ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THE VISITING NURSES ASSOCIATION DONATING THE CHRISTMAS TREE AGAIN THIS YEAR, AND FOR THOSE WHO CAME DOWNTOWN FOR THE CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHT IN IT, REALLY ADD SOMETHING TO OUR SMALL TOWN IMAGE.

[COMMENTS BY CITY MANAGER ( Part 1 of 2 )]
MR MARTEL. DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS? I DO? UM, FIRST OF ALL, I JUST WANT TO, UM BRIEFLY REITERATE THAT WE'RE MOVING FORWARD ON THE BRIGHT LINE REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS AND I HAD A LONG CONVERSATION WITH COUNTY AND TRICYCLES REGIONAL PLANNING COUNCIL TODAY, AND HOPEFULLY WE'LL GET SOME DETAILS TO BRING FORWARD TO YOU SOON. THERE'S A QUESTION AND ANSWERS WITH BRIGHT LINE ON WEDNESDAY. CLOSED SESSION, BUT THAT IS GOING TO CLARIFY SOME ISSUES WE WENT OVER TODAY. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS. BUT UM, WE'VE BEEN GETTING A LOT OF FEEDBACK AS IT RELATES TO QUIET ZONES. UM, THE DECISION. I WAS LIKE THIS FIRST, THE CITY HAS FIVE CROSSINGS. THE ONLY WAY TO GET QUIET ZONES OR IF YOUR QUALITY TO MEET A CERTAIN SAFETY LEVEL, SELFISH CIRCLE AND UM, CONFUSION CORNER ARE NOT YOUR TYPICAL PERPENDICULAR CROSSINGS, AND THERE IS NEVER GOING TO BE A TIME THAT WE CAN MAKE THEM SAFE ENOUGH TO MEET THE CRITERIA FOR A QUIET ZONE, AND AS A RESULT, STEWART WILL NOT BE APPLYING FOR AND WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR QUIET ZONES ON ITS OWN. HOWEVER, THE COUNTY IF THEY APPLY FOR PLANT ZONES FOR THE ENTIRE COUNTY UNDER THE FARRAH. THEY CAN IN FACT, QUALIFY AND INCLUDE THE STUART CROSSINGS IN THAT QUIET ZONE. IT IS THEIR INTENTION TO WAIT ONE YEAR FROM SEPTEMBER TO LET IT ALL PLAY OUT AND SEE WHAT THE WHAT HAPPENS FROM THE TRAINS BEFORE APPLYING FOR THE CROSS FOR THE QUIET ZONES, AND I'VE BEEN TALKING WITH THE COUNTY ABOUT IT AND HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE INCLUDED IN THAT APPLICATION.HOWEVER. DOWN SOUTH. THERE ARE SEVERAL AREAS THAT HAVE APPLIED FOR QUIET ZONES AND HAD THEM GRANTED AND THEN EVERY TIME THE TRAIN HORN GOES OFF THE PHONE RINGS OFF THE HOOK BECAUSE I THOUGHT WE HAD A QUIET ZONE. BUT THE TRUTH IS A QUIET ZONE DOESN'T MANDATE THE TRAIN HORN FROM GOING OFF. BUT THE CONDUCTOR OR ENGINEER IN THE TRAIN IF THEY SEE A CAR ON THE TRACKS OR A PERSON ON THE TRACKS OR SOMETHING THAT COULD BE UM CAUSED THE DEED FOR THE HORN TO BE BLOWN. COULD BE A DOG ON THE TRACKS. THEY WILL BLOW THE HORN ANYWAY. IT'S HIGHLY LIKELY THAT
[00:15:04]
THE CITY OF STEWART BECAUSE OF CONFUSION, CORNER AND SELFISH CIRCLE, THE WAY THEY ARE WAY TRAFFIC IS AND THE WAY PEDESTRIANS CROSS THEM IN THE WAY THEY WORK THAT EVEN WITH QUIET ZONES. WE WILL STILL HAVE ORANGE GOING OFF. ALTHOUGH NOT AS MUCH AND HOPEFULLY NOT BEFORE AM WINS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT WE ARE WORKING ON THE QUIET ZONES, AND IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT'S FORGOTTEN FOR ANY OF THOSE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT WE'RE LISTENING TO THIS. COULD YOU GREAT JUST A LITTLE TALKING POINT SHEET FOR THAT, SO THAT WE CAN GET THAT RIGHT BECAUSE THAT I WOULD SAY THAT'S THE NUMBER ONE QUESTION. UM I'M GETTING ABOUT THE TRAIN IS QUIET ZONES PUT SOMETHING TOGETHER. THAT WOULD BE GREAT. AND THEN THE OTHER THING I WANTED TO MENTION IS, I'M ALSO GOING TO BE BRINGING BACK IN JANUARY OR FEBRUARY. THE PROCESS TO DO A REFERENDUM. BECAUSE THE STUART FEED STORE. UM NEEDS A REFERENDUM TO EXTEND ITS LEASE.AND WITHOUT A PUBLIC REFERENDUM, WE CANNOT EXTEND THE LEASE TO STUART FEED STORE THAT WOULD BE TAKING PLACE AGAIN AND LIKELY IN AUGUST OR WHATEVER ARE GENERAL ELECTION IS IN 2024. THERE IS A PRIMARY ISN'T IT? AUGUST IN MARCH FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. I DON'T KNOW IF WE COULD GET IT DONE IN MARCH OR NOT, AND THAT'S WE STILL HAVE TO FOLLOW THE COUNTY'S, UM, ELECTION CYCLE. UH HUH. THE GENERAL ELECTION. RIGHT SO I THINK WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THE COUNTY'S ANYWAY AND SO, UM, FOR MY EDUCATION HERE, WHY? WHY DO WE HAVE TO HAVE A REFERENDUM FOR THAT? JUST BECAUSE IT'S A WATERFRONT PROPERTY IN ANY WATERFRONT PROPERTY FOR LEASE OR SALE FOR A PERIOD OF MORE THAN 10 YEARS. MUST BE, UM A PUBLIC REFERENDUM MUST TAKE PLACE.
THAT'S WHY THE TWO ACRE ON HEANEY CIRCLE ON HANEY CREEK. WAS A REFERENDUM WAS DONE. THERE WAS A REFERENDUM, THEN FROM MULLIGAN'S. THERE WAS A REFERENDUM DONE FOR HUDSON'S AND SO IN THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE, THE STUART HERITAGE ALREADY HAD A LEASE. BUT NOW THE LEASE HAS EXPIRED AND WE CAN'T RENEW THE LEASE BECAUSE IT LANGUAGE IN THE IN THE CHARTER AMENDMENT, SAYS ANY LENGTH OF TIME OR PORTION THEREOF, SO WE CAN'T ADD ONTO THE LEAST NOW THAT IT'S EXPIRED.
10 YEARS HAS RUN. YOU CAN'T HAVE ANYMORE UNLESS IT'S DONE BY REFERENDUM. I DON'T SEE IT AS ANY BIG DEAL AT ALL. I THINK IT WILL BE OVERWHELMINGLY SUPPORTED TO MAINTAIN THE STUART FEED STORE AS THE STEWARD HERITAGE MUSEUM. AS WELL WITH THE SAME CONDITIONS WE'VE HAD, BUT WE STILL ARE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE A REFERENDUM. IN THAT PROCESS. WE TAKE A LOOK AT THAT WORDING TO MAKE SURE THAT IT HURTING. THAT REFERENDUM THE CHARTER, SO WHAT I WILL BE BRINGING TO YOU IS A REFERENDUM LANGUAGE. TO VOTE. WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO VOTE ON AND IT WOULD BE. DO YOU WANT TO ENTER INTO ANOTHER LONG TERM LEASE WITH STUART HERITAGE TO MAINTAIN IT AS A MUSEUM AT A RENT OF $1 PER YEAR FOR HOWEVER MANY YEARS THANK YOU. UM AND THEN THE OTHER THING IS, UH DUFFY'S BOATS, ALSO KNOWN AS THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. IF YOU WERE HERE LONG ENOUGH AGO. UM DID NOT HAVE A REFERENDUM. AND AS A RESULT, THEIR 10 YEAR LEASE EXPIRED AND THEY VACATED IN THAT PROPERTY IS EMPTY. SO THE QUESTION IS FOR THE BOARD NUMBER ONE IF YOU WANT ME TO JUST PUT A FOR RENT SIGN UP FOR 10 YEAR LEASE NUMBER TWO. DO YOU WANT ME TO PUT A REFERENDUM TOGETHER TO COME BACK 2% POTENTIALLY PUT IT INTO A LONGER THAN 10 YEAR LEASE OR NUMBER THREE. DO YOU WANT ANY OTHER DIRECTION AT ALL ON IT, OR DO YOU NO AGENDA ITEM AT ALL. OR OR DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT? I CAN RIGHT NOW IT'S SIMPLY VACANT STEWART PROPERTY WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUT IT FOR RENT LOCATED DUFFY'S BOATS RIGHT ON US ONE OTHER SHEPHERDS PARK PARK AT THE ENTRANCE. I WOULD LIKE TO GO AND VISIT THAT MAY BE IN RANGE FOR MILTON, UH, PICKED OPEN IT UP FOR ME. BECAUSE I JUST LIKE TO SEE WHAT WE IT'S BEEN. I THINK I WAS IN THERE ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO WHEN WE LEAST AT DUFFY'S, BUT IT'S BEEN SO LONG. I DON'T REALLY RECALL WHAT WE HAVE THERE. OKAY STILL US ONE FRONTAGE BUILDING THAT'S SITTING EMPTY THAT WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING LESS. SO IF YOU HAVE THE BOARD WOULD LIKE I CAN BRING BACK IN AGENDA ITEM. BUT THE QUESTION IS WELL, UM, MAYBE BRING BACK AN ITEM FOR DISCUSSION. YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING. HMM. I'LL DO SO
[APPROVAL OF AGENDA]
THAT'S ALL I HAVE. OKAY GREAT. SO LET'S SEE. CAN WE HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA? I KNOW WE HAVE SOME FOOLS HERE SO WE CAN DO THOSE IN THE APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA WITH THE ITEMS POLLED 23. 45 AND SEVEN. YOU ALSO SAID YOU WANTED TO HEAR ABOUT YEAH. 6223456 AND[00:20:09]

THERE WAS AN ORDER AND THERE IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TO DO ON FRIDAY, SO I'M GONNA ASK YOU AGAIN. TO MAKE ME WORK WITH MR MOORE. TELL ON THIS. I'M ASKING AGAIN. CAN I HAVE SOMEONE HELP HIM TO DO THIS? BECAUSE WE HAVE TO GET SOMETHING BACK TO THE COURT ON THE 30TH. AND I WORK FULL TIME WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET TOGETHER. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DISCUSS THIS TO GET THIS. AH!

THANK YOU ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENT? OKAY? I'M DOING. OKAY MR. ALEXANDER, CAN YOU HEAR ME? I KNOW SHE'S ON, HMM. OKAY CAN YOU HEAR ME? YOU HAVE MS ALEXANDER, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES. OKAY HOLD JUST A MOMENT. I'M TIMING MYSELF, PLEASE. ALRIGHT MY NAME FOR THE RECORD IS JANINE ALEXANDER I PRESENTED ON OCTOBER 23RD 2 THE COMMISSION IN REGARDS TO A CITIZEN'S COMPLAINT THAT WAS FILED WITH THE CITY BACK IN 2018 . CAN I SEE BY SHOW OF HANDS HOW MANY OF THE COMMISSIONERS HAVE READ THAT COMPLAINT? OKAY UM, IN THEIR COMPLAINT, I ADDRESS THE NEGLIGENCE OF YOUR POLICE OFFICERS TO FOLLOW POLICY. 27 28 43 AS WELL AS 53 AND. I HAVE HAD NO RESPONSE FROM ANY OF THE COMMISSIONERS OTHER THAN YOU.
LOOK, CLARK AS TO, UM MY REQUEST TO READ THIS CITIZEN'S COMPLAINT BECAUSE I HAVE NO ASSURANCE THAT MICHAEL MOORE TELL EVER APPRISED THE CITY OR ANY OF THE COMMISSIONERS AT THAT TIME. OF THE COMPLAINTS HAD BEEN FILED BECAUSE HE DENIED IT S I R B BOARD HEARING AND DENIED ME AN 88 ACCOMMODATION THAT WOULD HAVE DONE EXACTLY WHAT I'M DOING TONIGHT ALLOWED ME TO SPEAK IN A VIDEOCONFERENCE FORMAT BECAUSE I DEAL WITH POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER, GENERALIZED ANXIETY DISORDER AND FORMALLY, UH, WITH CLINICAL DEPRESSION, WHICH I'VE BEEN TREATED OVER THE YEARS, BUT IT DOES NOT PREVENT ME FROM BEING A HUMAN BEING. AND AS A HUMAN BEING, I WOULD SUGGEST THIS I WAS DOMESTICALLY ABUSED AND ATTACKED BY TWO INDIVIDUALS ON FEBRUARY 27TH 2015, NEITHER OF WHOM HAVE EVER BEEN CHARGED NOR WORLD WARRANTS SOUGHT. BY THE STUART POLICE IN THE INCIDENT AGAINST THEM, IT TOOK THE STUART POLICE 12 DAYS AND ONLY AFTER I WENT TO THE POLICE STATION TO MAKE A WRITTEN STATEMENT TO COME AFTER ME, WHICH WOULD INDICATE POTENTIALLY THAT MY FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH HAD BEEN VIOLATED. THERE'S A BODY WORN CAMERA, WHICH I ALSO SENT TO THE COMMISSIONER'S RECENTLY SO THAT I COULD SEE WHAT WAS SAID TO ME AT THE POLICE STATION ON MARCH 8TH BY AN OFFICER SCIUTO IN DEFENSE OF THE INCOMPETENCE OF HIS SUBORDINATE. OFFICER OFFICER NEW UNION VOTE WHO DENIED ME THE RIGHT TO A WRITTEN STATEMENT
[00:25:05]
UNTIL I INSISTED UPON IT NOW, AT THIS POINT IN TIME, ALL OF YOU ALL HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE. OF MY CLAIMS, BUT UNDER 768.28, FLORIDA STATUTE, NEGLIGENCE CAN BE ON GROWING. THERE WAS NEGLIGENCE INITIALLY ON THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S PART IN VIOLATING THEIR OWN POLICIES.BUT WHEN YOU FELL TO ADDRESS THE COMPLAINTS OF A CITIZEN AND YOU LEAVE IT TO YOUR CITY ATTORNEY MICHAEL MARTEL.

DURING AN EMERGENCY SO IT COULD BE HURRICANE BRIDGE COLLAPSE COULD BE A CHEMICAL SPILL, WHATEVER WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE. SO WE HAVE THAT. AND THIS IS ANNUALLY UPDATED. YOU KNOW WHAT? THE FIRST THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THIS MY 10 YEARS? CHIEF SINCE 2019. THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER SEEN THIS TYPE OF AGREEMENT FIVE YEARS NOW THAT 19 IS MORE THAN FIVE YEARS. I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE MR MARTEL HAS SEEN THIS AS AN ATTORNEY. I HAVE. NO, I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. THEY ALSO I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE WAY THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE HAS UPDATED ITS BUDGET AND WHETHER THE STATE WANTS TO PROVIDE FUNDING AND WANTS TO HAVE A UNIFORM METHOD FOR REIMBURSEMENT. BUT AS THE CHIEF CAN PROBABLY TELL YOU GOVERNOR WAS IN MARTIN COUNTY LAST WEEK OR THE WEEK BEFORE THERE WAS SPECIAL DUTY ASSIGNED TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE BECAUSE THE GOVERNOR IS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW, SO A CIRCUMSTANCE LIKE THAT MIGHT BE THAT THEY COME IN. AND THEN IF YOU HAVEN'T FILLED OUT THIS FORM OR HAVE THIS AGREEMENT DONE, THEN IF YOU WANT TO BE REIMBURSED FOR ALL THE ADDITIONAL HOURS THAT YOUR POLICE OFFICERS HAD IN ON SOMETHING LIKE THAT, YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PROCESS, WHEREAS IF YOU'RE PRE VETTED AND PRE AUTHORIZED THEN GETTING REIMBURSEMENT IS DIRECT. OKAY? I HAVE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS ON THAT. I AM NUMBER FOUR. AND ON THIS SOMEBODY ELSE HAS A QUESTION ON IT. SO HAVE WE. SO HOW LONG HAVE WE BEEN FORMALLY.
THEN INVOLVED WITH THIS MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT. THAT I CAN ANSWER . THIS IS THE FIRST ONE. I AM SURE THERE HAS BEEN AGREEMENTS IN THE PAST WITHOUT DOING YOUR RESEARCH AGENCY OF THE STATE.
WHETHER OR NOT WE'RE UNDER THERE WERE UNDER THEIR JURISDICTIONS. HAVE WE EVER FILLED OUT A RESOURCE SUPPORT AGREEMENT ASKING FOR ASSISTANCE FROM ANOTHER MUNICIPALITY? NOT TO MY KNOWLEDGE. HAS HAS HAS HAS ENOUGH, SIR, HAS ANOTHER MUNICIPALITY REACHED OUT TO US IN A FORMAL MANNER TO PROVIDE THEM WITH ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE IN THE PAST. ALRIGHT POINT WE PROVIDE THEM WITH FIRE SERVICES THEY REACHED IT SAYS YOU HAVE TO FILL OUT HERE IS THAT SAYS, YOU HAVE TO FILL OUT A RESOURCE SUPPORT AGREEMENT IF YOU ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT WHAT IT DOES ORGANIZING AS ANY OTHER MUNICIPALITY. OKAY, SO. I MEAN, THIS IS A NEW FORMALITY. AND THIS IS PROBABLY WHY THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN IT. I MEAN, YOU COULD VOTE NO. HELLO HI SENSE.
WHAT IS THE WHAT'S THE LIABILITY HERE? I MEAN, DOES THIS PUT US ON THE HOOK FOR HAVING TO PAY OUT TO ANOTHER MUNICIPALITY? NO IT'S A COOPERATION AGREEMENT TO WORK WITH EACH OTHER, NOT WORK AGAINST EACH OTHER. I WOULD SAY, LIKE AN EXAMPLE IN DIESEL BURNED . NOT ONLY DID THE CITY OF STUART HELP BROOKE BARTON KIND OF THAT LARGE FIRE, BUT ST LUCIE COUNTY AND OKEECHOBEE COUNTY AND
[00:40:07]
PUBLIC COUNTY WERE AW, HERE, WORKING ON ONE FIRE. I THINK IT'S JUST A BELL ISLANDS BRIDGE WENT INTO THE OCEAN BECAUSE OF A HURRICANE, AND THERE WAS ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT AGENCIES TRYING TO HELP RECOVER FROM THE HURRICANE. THEY WANTED TO HAVE AN ORGANIZED AND STREAMLINED METHOD FOR PEOPLE TO GO THROUGH THE STATE. IT'S PROBABLY MORE OF JUST TRYING TO FORMALIZE AND PROCEDURE THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR YOU. CHIEF SNYDER CALLS YOU UP AND ASK FOR YOUR HELP. YOU'RE GOING TO GO HELP HIM, SHERIFF SNYDER, CALL HIM AND ASK HIM FOR HELP. HE'S GOING TO COME HELP ME. BUT THIS OPENS THE DOOR FOR STATE MONEY TO COME IN. IS THAT THE IDEA IF WE NEED IT? I BELIEVE IT IS AS IF THE STATE WHERE TO CALL US AND ASK US TO ASSIST THEM AND IN AN EMERGENCY OR THE STATE POLICE CAME IN AND NEEDED OUR POLICE FORCE TO HELP THEM OR THEY NEEDED TO USE CITY HALL OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IT OPENS UP THE DOOR TO ALLOW A PROCESS CONTACT AND PROCEDURE FOR THAT TO TAKE PLACE. UNDERSTAND WAS WAS THIS? THE ONE I FORGOT, EVER HAD SO MANY THINGS. DID I SEE THE ACTUAL, UM STATEWIDE AGREEMENT WAS THAT ATTACHED HERE. DO IT. DO YOU DID THE STATE MUTUAL? YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. I DID REMEMBER SEEING THAT OKAY? YES. YEAH IT MAKES SENSE, OF COURSE, BECAUSE YEAH, I DID REMEMBER GOING THROUGH THAT SO, YES. SO WHAT? YOU'RE SAYING THAT IT'S THE FIRST TIME YOU THINK THAT YOU'VE LIKE, WHAT I THINK IS TELLING IS THE WHITE OR BRITAIN. IT SAYS PARTICIPATING. PARTY OR PARTICIPATING. FIRST UM, MY LEAGUE PROBABLY REFRESH MY MEMORY REQUESTING PARTY REQUESTING PARTY. UH HUH. IT'S A GENERAL. MOU SO REQUESTING PARTY BECOMES A CITY OF STEWART'S. THAT'S WHY I'M THINKING THAT IT'S PROBABLY THE FIRST TIME THAT THE STATE HAS EVER DONE THIS, AND I DON'T THINK IT'S A BAD THING. I THINK IT'S A GOOD THING SO OKAY, OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION. EMOTION MOVE FOR APPROVAL OVER RESOLUTION NUMBER 116-20 TO 3. OKAY. WE HAVE MOTION BY COMMISSIONER RICH. WE HAVE A SECOND. 2ND 2ND BASE. COMMUNITY BY VICE MAYOR BRUNER. THANK YOU, UM LET ME PUBLIC COMMENTS. NINA, WOULD YOU CALL THE ROLL? YES, SIR. COMMISSIONER CLARK YES. COMMISSIONER RICH YES. VICE MAYOR BRUNER. YES COMMISSIONER COLLINS YES, MCDONALD'S.

NUMBER FIVE. BUDGET AMENDMENT NUMBER THREE FOR POLICE IMPACT FEES, RELOCATION AND PAMELA AND NEW STORAGE BUILDING. WE WOULD YOU READ THE REVOLUTION? SURE BUDGET AMENDMENT NUMBER THREE FOR POLICE. IMPACT THESE RELOCATION IMPOUND LOT IN NEW STORAGE BUILDING. RESOLUTION NUMBER 117-2023 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF STUART, FLORIDA AUTHORIZING BUDGET AMENDMENT NUMBER THREE TO THE 2023. THROUGH 2024 BUDGET. APPROPRIATING AND AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE OF POLICE IMPACT FEES FOR THE RELOCATION. OF THE POLICE IMPOUND LOT AND A NEW STORAGE BUILDING FOR STORING ASSETS. PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.THANK YOU, MR MAYOR. SO. TELL US AGAIN WHERE THE IMPOUND LOT IS. WHAT IS GOING ON? SO THE POLICE IMPOUND LOT IS A FENCED IN AREA AT THESE CITY GARAGE. IT'S ABOUT 40 BY 440. FT BY 40 FT. AND IT IS FOUR. NO. THE REASON FOR THAT . IS THAT A LARGE AMOUNT OF THAT STUFF THAT'S IN THERE IS WHAT THEY CALL CAPITAL EVIDENCE AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF THAT STUFF. WE HAVE TO SAVE FOR 99 YEARS BECAUSE OF CAPITAL CRIMES THAT WERE COMMITTED WANTED, FOR INSTANCE, WOULD BE THE BANK ROBBERY THAT HAPPENED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO ON NBA OR MONTEREY, AND WE MUST ONE AND THE PERSON WAS SHOT ON CANADA HIGHWAY, SO WE HAVE THAT VEHICLE. WE HAVE TO SAY THAT VEHICLE. WE TOLD VEHICLES WE 40 VEHICLES. ALL OF THAT STUFF. OUR IMPOUND LOT HAS CAPACITY. UM THIS PROPOSAL AND RESOLUTION IS FOR THE MOVEMENT OF THAT IMPOUND TO THE BACK OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING. UM THIS WOULD MAKE IT A LARGER FACILITY TO WHERE I CAN STORE THOSE CAPITAL EVIDENCE VEHICLES.
WAY IN THE BACK. IN ADDITION TO HAVE MORE ROOM TO HAVE VEHICLES THAT ARE, UM TOAD FOR FORMER TEACHER TOAD FOR VEHICLE TRAFFIC HOMICIDES. IT WILL GIVE THE POLICE FUND MORE ROOM. IN
[00:45:06]
ADDITION TO THAT, BEING THAT THAT WAS GOING TO BE MOVING THE IMPOUND MONT. THERE WOULD BE A STORAGE WOULD BE 50 BY 35 STORAGE SHED. I GUESS YOU CAN SAY FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT ASSETS. WHEN I SAY ASSETS. WE HAVE TWO BOATS WE HAVE. WE WILL HAVE A BEAR CAT. WE WILL HAVE A SEGWAYS ALL OF OUR ASSETS THAT THE BIGGER ONES WHO GET WEATHERED. THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER MONTHS AND FLORIDA WEATHER WE'LL HAVE THE ABILITY TO STORE THOSE AND PROTECT THOSE ASSETS. UM WE'VE NEVER HAD THAT OPPORTUNITY BEFORE. UM I SAW THAT BEING THAT WE HAVE BEEN MOVING FORWARD WITH SOME VERY GOOD EQUIPMENT. THAT WE SHOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO STORE THOSE ASSETS FOR THE CITY AND MAKE THEM LAST A LOT LONGER. RIGHT NOW. I HAVE A BOAT THAT'S SITTING OUT IN THE SUN GETTING PICKED UP DOT I SET WOULD BE INSIDE THE GARAGE. UM AND ONE OF THOSE BOOKS IN THE WATER, SO WITH THAT SAID UM, THIS REQUEST. THIS RESOLUTION IS FOR NUMBER ONE EXPANSION. NUMBER TWO PROTECTION OVER ASSETS. OKAY, COSTS A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY TO DO THAT. AND I WOULD ASK THAT BREATHE. REMOVE THAT. TAKE THAT MONEY FROM THE IMPACT THESE ALLOCATED FOR THESE TWO THOUSANDS. THANK YOU, MR AMERICA. ASK ANOTHER QUESTION. SO, MR CHIEF SO YOU'RE IT'S A COVERED AREA, AND ARE YOU DOING ADDITIONAL FENCING OR ADDITIONAL SECURITY, LIGHTING OUR CAMERAS OR IS IT JUST A COVERED AREA? THE IMPOUND WILL NOT BE A COVERED AREA. THE IMPOUND WILL HAVE ANOTHER LIGHT. IN ADDITION TO SECURITY SURROUNDS, WE HAVE NO SECURITY AT THE GARAGE.ALTHOUGH ACTUALLY WE DO, BUT UM, THIS WILL BE BETTER. THAT SECURITY BECAUSE I'LL BE IT'LL BE AN ENTIRE LIT AREA. TO WHERE WE CAN OBSERVE OUR EVIDENCE IN THE COMPOUND. AS FOR THE STORAGE THAT WOULD BE CITY ASSETS. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EVIDENCE THAT WE WOULD TAKE INTO INTO THAT IMPACT. AND DOES THIS ELIMINATE HAVING ANY IMPOUND USE AT THE CURRENT CITY GARAGE? YES, THAT WILL BE TAKEN DOWN AND MILTON DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH DEFENSE THAT'S THERE TO KEEP THE FENCE. WELL WHERE'S MILLMAN? WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO WITH THE FENCE. CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS. UM NO. I DON'T. I DIDN'T HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS I JUST WANT AND WE DO HAVE NOW. I DON'T REMEMBER . I KNOW WE JUST WENT THROUGH THE BUDGET, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE TOTAL. WELL, HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK WE HAVE IN IS THAT ALL WE HAVE IN POLICE IMPACT FEES IS 110,000. OR 180 SHOVEL. ONE OF THE TWO GETTING IT SO I'M ASKING FOR 100,000. UM. BECAUSE THERE'S A LITTLE BIT MORE ELECTRICAL WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN SUCH, UM I'M SURE JULIE CAN GIVE YOU AN EXACT NUMBER OF WHAT'S IN THE IMPACT THESE BUT THEY'RE PROBABLY BE I WOULD SAY, 80,000. WHAT IMPACT EAST. AFTER THIS PROJECT IS COMPLETE. THANK YOU IMPOUNDED BE ABOUT 48,000 AND THE UM, STRUCTURE WOULD BE ABOUT 40. 2000 GIVE OR TAKE, SO WE'RE 90 THERE. PLUS, UM. THE ELECTORATE, ELECTRICAL AND THE POLLS AND SECURITY CAMERAS. HE SAID. IT'S A STRUCTURE, BUT IT'S NOT A COVERAGE STRUCTURE COVERED STRUCTURES HAS THREE DOORS. OKAY AND IT WOULD BE FIT A LOT OF GOSSIP. THANK YOU. SO IS THIS TYPICAL UH, PROCEDURALLY. IT'S JUST TYPICAL OUTSIDE OF THE BUDGET. WHERE IS THIS? SOMETHING THAT PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET, BUT WE THOUGHT OF IT AFTER THE FACT.
WELL THIS IS BEEN GOING AND ONGOING ISSUE FOR YEARS, BUT THE ISSUES WITH THE. SOILS IN THE BACK BECAUSE OF THE VIER FOAM WHAT THEY CALLED FIREFIGHTERS. BUT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A WHILE TO TRY TO GET THIS DONE AND THAT WE FINALLY GOT THE APPROVAL TO GET IT DONE KIND OF AFTER THE FACT. IT WAS RAISED AND MENTIONED WHEN WE WERE IN THE BUDGET CYCLE, AND IT WAS ALSO DISCUSSED. WE DID THE RATE STUDY TO MOVE THE GARAGE BECAUSE THE CURRENT IMPOUND LOT IS AS PART OF THE GARAGE ON THE CORNER OF MLK AND GEORGIA. SO IT WAS PLANNED TO RELOCATE FROM THE
[00:50:04]
GARAGE. BUT WHAT HAPPENS IS WE THEN DETACH IT FROM THE GARAGE AND THE ENTERPRISE FUND OF THE GARAGE WAS MOVING TO REBUILD THE STUFF DOWN ON 10TH STREET. THIS ENDS UP BEING A FENCED IN AREA BEHIND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT WE HAVE TO HARDEN THE SURFACE. SO UH, THE CHIEF LOOKED INTO IT AND DECIDED WE HAVE THE AVAILABLE IMPACT FEES IF YOU DON'T SPEND THE IMPACT THESE WITHIN A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME, YOU ACTUALLY HAVE LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY TO RETURN THEM.THIS 50 USE OF THE IMPACT THESE DIRECTLY COULD PROVIDE A STORAGE FACILITY BEHIND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT WE WERE FENCING AND IN BUILDING AND HARDENING FOR THE IMPOUND PART OF IT ANYWAY. THIS WOULD JUST ADD A GARAGE TO IT TO STORE THE OTHER POLICE EQUIPMENT. AND THEN SORT OF A SEPARATE QUESTION IS HOW MUCH LAND IS THAT FREEING UP THERE? AND THAT CURRENT IMPOUND SPACE. HOW MUCH LAND DOES IT WENT? HOW MUCH DOES THAT IT DOESN'T. IT'S PART OF THE GARAGE , SO IT DOES. IT'S NOT NEW SPACE . IT'S THAT SAME ORIGINAL 3.2 ACRES THAT WAS NEXT TO THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB AROUND THE CORNER OF MLK AND GEORGIA. THE LAND THAT WAS DESIGNATED IN THE PRESENTATIONS AS THE GARAGE IS THE SAME LAND. IT'S NOT NEW, ADDITIONAL SPACE. YOU HAVE A NOTION? HMM. IS THAT ITEM NUMBER FIVE. MR MAYOR? YES. ITEM NUMBER RESOLUTION NUMBER 117 2023 I MOVE APPROVAL. EXACTLY. HEY WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER CLARK SECOND BUT WAS THE COMMISSIONER COLLINS COMMISSIONER COLLINS ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS? WHAT YOU CALL THE ROLL? YES, SIR. COMMISSIONER CLARK YES.

THESE LATTER PROGRAMS WITH THE COUNTY IN THE PAST MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE DOING THEM CONTINUOUSLY FOR US IN THE FUTURE. I THINK THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE LAST ONE. BUT WE'VE PROBABLY DONE THIS 20 TIMES IN THE PAST. AND THE TAP GRANTS OUR MONEY WE RECEIVE THROUGH PROBLEM FEDERAL HIGHWAY THROUGH THE MPO THERE, UH, TRANSPORTATION STANDS FOR TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVE PROGRAMS. TOKYO WE HAVE A YOU HAVE A QUESTION, SO IF IN THE FUTURE WITH THIS LOCAL AGENCY PROGRAM, CAN WE BECOME CERTIFIED OR IS IT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE, MISS? WE ARE, WE CAN BECOME CERTIFIED. BUT IT'S EXPENSIVE AND IN THE PAST WHEN SAM AMERSON WAS PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR THE AMOUNT OF PROJECTS THAT WE HAD DID NOT JUSTIFY THE COST TO BE CERTIFIED IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES BECAUSE WE DIDN'T DO ENOUGH PROJECTS TO MAKE IT WORTH IT. I ACTUALLY ASKED. THEY HAVE TO LOOK INTO IT ABOUT SEVEN OR EIGHT YEARS AGO, MAYBE MORE, AND IT WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO COST MORE TO MAINTAIN THE CERTIFICATION THAT IT WOULD BE TO PAY THE COUNTY TO WHAT IT'S ALWAYS BEEN THE CASE. YEAH. WE LOSE MONEY IN THE FUTURE OF THESE GRANTS COME UP, AND WE'RE NOT WORKING WITH THE COUNTY BUILT UP. APPLY FOR THOSE GRANTS . GET IT? WELL WE WILL EAT UP CERTIFIED ANOTHER CERTIFICATION. SOMEONE LIKE ANOTHER LAB CERTIFIED ENGINEER. YOU CAN DO IT THE SAME LUCY YEAH. OKAY? YEAH, I KNOW. I KNOW JACKIE MAY HAD REACHED OUT TO THE CITY OF PORT ST LUCIE BECAUSE THEY ARE LAB CERTIFIED, SO I DON'T KNOW THE RESULTS OF THAT CONVERSATION, BUT I'M AWARE OF SHE REACHED OUT TO THEM ON THAT WOULD THAT REQUIRE LIKE SOME KIND OF INTER LOCAL REGIONAL AGREEMENT OR SOMETHING? THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE IN THE LOCAL AGREEMENT, BUT BUT NOT I'M SAYING LIKE THAT, WILL. THIS WILL GO FOR CITY IMPORT SOLUTION.
