[CONSENT AGENDA]

>> I MOVED TO APPROVAL. >> WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND PAIR ALL IN FAVOR PLEASE SAY

[9.  CARES Act Update]

WE WILL MOVE ON TO THE DISCUSSION UPDATES IT IS THE CARES ACT UPDATE.

>> SO, AS WE DO EVERY BOARD MEETING HERE IS THE UPDATES AND THE MONEY COMING BACK FROM REIMBURSEMENT. THE PROCESS SLOW DOWN BECAUSE THE STATE MADE US ENTER INTO A NEW AGREEMENT FOR ANY PROJECTS THAT CROSSED OVER. WE HAVE DONE THE PROCESS.

WE HAVE APPROVAL FROM THE STATE SO WE WILL SEE THIS MOVING A LITTLE FASTER.

THE RFR NUMBER IS UP. RIGHT AT $18 MILLION APPROVED. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS

BECAUSE. >> THE NEXT ONE IS AN UPDATE ON THE SYSTEMS PROGRAM.

STAFF HAS BEEN SELECTED AND WE ARE FINALIZING THE HIRING. THE SOFTWARE IS IN ITS FINAL STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT. THE FORMS ARE BEING CREATED. THE NEXT STEP IS TO FINALIZE THE FORMS. WE ARE PLANNING TO HAVE THREE COMMUNITY MEETINGS.

WE ARE FINALIZING THE DATES AND TIMES SO WE CAN REACH OUT TO THE LANDLORDS AND GET THEM ENGAGED IN THE PROGRAM SPIRIT WE WILL MEET THIS WEEK TO ADVISE THE COMMUNICATIONS PLANS.

>> I HAVE A QUESTION. HOW WILL WE NOTIFIED THE BUSINESSES HOLDING THE MEETINGS.

>> WE WILL WORK WITH THE MUNICIPALITIES. THEY ARE ALL WORKING WITH US, SO WE WILL USE THEIR RESOURCES TO GET THE INFORMATION. WE ALSO HAVE A LIST OF THE

COMPANIES THAT DO RENTAL SO WE WILL HAVE A LIST. >> CAN WE USE THE ELECTRONIC

BILLBOARDS? >> YES, WE CAN DO THAT. WE WILL DEFINITELY MAKE A NOTE OF THAT AND PUT IT OUT THERE WHEN THE COMMUNITY MEETINGS ARE HAPPENING.

>> I'M SURE THEY WILL BE ABLE TO SPREAD THE WORD. THAT WILL BE PART OF THE COMMUNICATIONS PLAN. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

>> JUST GOING BACK TO THE PREVIOUS UPDATE. I DID GET A NOTE FROM JJ HARRIS

WONDERING WHERE HIS GRANT MAY BE >> WE WILL REACH OUT TO TALK TO HIM.

[00:20:03]

[10.  COVID Update]

>> THAT EVENING. I SENT THE UPDATE YESTERDAY. THE CASES ARE IN THE LOW NUMBERS NOW AND THAT IS GOOD NEWS, MAYBE THAT IS THE EFFORT OF THE FASCINATION BUT OTHER STRATEGIES. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT THE VACCINATIONS AND WHERE WE ARE. THIS MORNING WE HAVE VACCINATED 52% OF THOSE 65 AND OLDER.

THAT MAKES ME HAPPY. WE HAVE DONE 40,000 DOSES IN LESS THAN TWO MONTHS.

THAT IS INCREDIBLE WORK BY THE COUNTY. WE HAVE DONE REALLY WELL WITH THAT. COUPLE OF THINGS THERE WILL BE A FEDERAL SITE OPENING, IT IS SCHEDULED TO OPEN ON MARCH 3, IT WILL BE THE SAME EXECUTIVE ORDER PRIORITY GROUPINGS.

BUT THE GOVERNOR DID PIVOTING SAY SAY POSSIBLY THOSE OVER 50 WHO WERE TEACHERS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS WILL BE ABLE TO BE VACCINATED ONLY AT THE FEDERAL SITES.

WE WILL HAVE TO WORK TO REALLY SEND THE MESSAGE OUT THAT COMING TO THIS WE HAVE TO ABIDE BY IT.

WE WILL HAVE TO SEE HOW IT IS WRITTEN. ON FRIDAY, THE 26, FDA WILL REVIEW THE JOHNSON AND JOHNSON VACCINE. WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING THAT APPROVED. THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT IT, IT IS MADE FROM ANOTHER VIRUS SO IT IS A STANDARD VACCINE PROCESS VERSUS THE NEW TECHNOLOGY AND IT IS A 1,000 SHOT.

HOW I ENVISIONED THAT IT IS INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY BE HOMEBOUND OR STRUGGLING WITH NEEDLES, BEING ABLE TO GET THOSE DONE. JUST TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE, WE ARE STILL GETTING THE 2300 DOSES PER WEEK OF PFIZER. WHEN I SPOKE TO TROY, WE HAD A FEW APPOINTMENTS STILL AVAILABLE. I THINK WE ARE GETTING TO A POINT THAT THOSE WHO WANT IT, WE ARE MEETING THEIR NEEDS AND WE ARE WAITING TO SEE WHAT THE GOVERNOR DOES.

WE ARE STILL ON HOLD BASED ON WHAT THE GOVERNOR ALLOWS US TO DO WITH THE GROUPINGS.

WE CONTINUE TO MESSAGE THAT. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE MOVE QUICKLY INTO THE NEXT PHASE SO WE DON'T LOSE OPPORTUNITIES TO VACCINATE THOSE WHO WANT TO BE VACCINATED.

I WILL BE GLAD TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS. >> THE QUESTION IS AROUND HOMEBOUND. I HAVE SEEN THAT I HAVE RECEIVED A LOT OF CALLS.

THE MOBILITY IS A PROBLEM, GETTING TO A VEHICLE. CAN WE -- HOW CAN WE ACCOMMODATE

THAT. >> THE WAY THE GOVERNOR IS WORKING IT IS WITH VETERANS, SPECIFICALLY THOSE IN WORLD WAR II OR THE KOREAN WAR LOOKING AT THOSE HOMEBOUND INDIVIDUALS.

WE DID HAVE A MEETING EARLIER WHERE WE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THAT.

HOMEBOUND, AS YOU KNOW IS VERY SUBJECTIVE. THE DEFINITION CAN BE VERY UNCLEAR AT TIMES. WE WILL BE WORKING WITH PARTNER AGENCIES TO IDENTIFY WHO THEY ARE. IT MAY BECOME A SELF REPORTED CRITERIA AND PEOPLE WILL SAY THEY ARE HOMEBOUND, AND CANNOT GET OUT. DOING THAT, WE CAN DO 1,000 SHOTS PER DAY TO 100 BECAUSE OF THE LABOR INTENSITY, DRIVING TO THE LOCATION SPIRIT IF THEY ARE AT A HIGHER RISK IT IS A 30 MINUTE WAITING PERIOD. THE AMOUNT OF SHOTS YOU CAN GIVE, BECOMES VERY LABOR INTENSIVE. WE STRUGGLE WITH THAT.

WE ARE REALLY HOPING FROM'S THE STATE TO GIVE US DEFINITION ON WHO FALLS INTO THAT CATEGORY.

>> THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE HOMEBOUND. THEY DESERVE THE HEALTHCARE I

[00:25:41]

>> AGAIN, THOSE WOULD ONLY BE AT THE FEDERAL SITES. THEY WOULD NOT BE AT EVERY SITE.

>> WILL YOU REPEAT WHERE THAT WILL BE? >> THE GATEWAY MALL AND

SCHEDULED TO OPEN ON MARCH 3. >> ARE WE GOING TO CONTINUE TO GET OUR ALLOTMENT EVEN THOUGH

THE FEDERAL SITES ARE OPENING UP? >> THEY COME WITH THEIR OWN VACCINE, IT DOES NOT COME WITH AN ALLOCATION. WHAT DOES THAT DO FOR US IN TERMS OF KEEPING THE DOSES WE DON'T USE. ARE WE SENDING THEM OUT PRIOR TO

WHEN WE NEED THEM? >> WE GET THE WEEKLY ALLOCATION. YESTERDAY WE GOT SECOND DOSES WE GET THOSE, THEY ARE IN THE FREEZER. THEY DO HAVE AN EXPIRATION DATE OF JUNE. THEY WILL NOT EXPIRE. AGAIN, IT WILL BE AN EBB AND FLOW LIKE WHEN EVERYONE WANTED IT AND YOU HAD A LOT OF DEMAND AND NOT A LOT OF SUPPLY.

I THINK YOU WILL SEE THE SURGE HAPPEN AGAIN AND THEN IT WILL& TAPER OFF.

YOU WILL KEEP SEEING THE SAME PATTERN. I THINK WE ARE CLOSE.

THEY TALKED ABOUT, SOME OF THE COUNTIES LAST WEEK THAT THEY WERE STRUGGLING WITH FILLING THE

65 AND OLDER SPOTS. >> DO WE HAVE ANYTHING LIKE THE NEW STUFF WILL GO BAD SO WE HAVE TO GIVE OUT SHOTS. WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE OPENINGS. WHERE ARE WE WITH THAT?

>> SOME OF THE SITES HAVE TAKEN IT OUT OF THE FROZEN CONTAINER WHERE THEY HAVE PUNCTURED THE FILE. IT HAS TO BE USED WITHIN SIX HOURS.

I HAVE TO GET THIS AND THEN YOU TRY TO WORK WITH THE PRIORITY GROUPINGS.

YOU DON'T WANT TO WASTE THE VACCINE. THAT IS BECAUSE THE PFIZER DOSES, SO FIVE DAYS, YOU HAVE TO WERE PROBABLY WAITING BUT I AM ASSUMING WHEN I HEAR THAT

[00:30:02]

>> CAN WE DO A STANDBY LIST? >> WHAT YOU MEAN BY STANDBY? >> 40 SHOTS AVAILABLE, WHO IS ON THE STANDBY LIST THAT DOES NOT FIT INTO THE GROUP THAT WE CAN SAY THEY CAN COME.

>> WE HAVE A LIST OF INDIVIDUALS WHO COULDN'T GET APPOINTMENTS. WE MAY RUN INTO 1-2 IN THE EVENING, WE ARE TRYING TO LOOKING AT THE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO US LOOKING FOR -- IT DOES NOT FALL INTO A DIRECT HEALTHCARE PROVIDER BUT THEY DO WANT SOMEONE WITH A HIGHER RISK. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? CAN THEY HAVE IT NOW COLLECTS.

>> IN THE EXECUTIVE ORDER WRITTEN BY THE GOVERNOR, HE BROKE THREE GROUPINGS THAT CAN BE DONE, HEALTHCARE WORKERS, THOSE 65 AND OVER AND THOSE WHO WERE DEEMED TO HAVE MOBILITY'S THAT WOULD PUT THEM AT A HIGHER RISK. THEY CAN GO TO A HOSPITAL, I AM NOT A HOSPITAL PROVIDER. I CANNOT INOCULATE THOSE INDIVIDALS REGARDLESS OF WHO

WRITES THE NOTE. I AM NOT A HOSPITAL PROVIDER. >> THEY HAVE TO GET A NOTE AND

THEN GO TO THE HOSPITAL? >> YES. >> HERD IMMUNITY.

70%, WE ARE NOT THERE. ARE WE IN THE SAME SITUATION AS OTHER COUNTIES.

IF WE DON'T GET TO 70%, THE POPULATION IS AT RISK. HOW ARE WE CONVINCING THOSE OVER 65 TO TAKE THE APPOINTMENTS, WHAT ARE WE DOING TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC TO GET OUT HERE AND GET

THESE IMMUNIZATIONS COLLECTS. >> ONE THING. UP TO THIS POINT WE HAVE HAD SUCH A DEMAND. WE DID NOT WANT TO MARKET FOR SOMETHING WE COULD NOT SUPPLY.

AT THIS POINT, HOW DO WE IDENTIFY THE INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY HAVE RELUCTANCE IS VERY IS A FEAR OF THE VACCINE, THE SYMPTOMS AFTERWARDS, WHAT ARE THE RELUCTANT SEAS? WE DO HAVE A MARKETING CAMPAIGN THAT WE COULD USE BUT WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN TO THAT.

SO, WE ARE GOING TO GET TO A POINT TO DO THAT. I THINK WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS YOU WILL MOVE TO THE NEXT GROUPING AND THERE WILL BE A LARGE CAMPAIGN AT THE END TO CAPTURE THE PEOPLE, YOU WILL HEAR FROM PEOPLE WHO WILL SAY I WILL WAIT AND SEE AND I SAY, SEE WHAT.

>> MY OPINION IS, IF 52% OF THOSE OVER 65, IT WILL BE EVEN LESS IN THE 45 AND OVER.

THE RELUCTANCE WILL GO UP. AND IF WE DON'T ACHIEVE HERD IMMUNITY, WE HAVE THE RISK OF A

RECURRENCE. >> HERD IMMUNITY DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE GOTTEN THE VACCINE.

YOU COULD'VE GOTTEN THE VIRUS IN A NATURAL FORM AND DEVELOPED ANTIBODIES.

>> COULD HAVE, BUT PROBABLY DIDN'T. I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.

JOHNS HOPKINS IS INKING BY APRIL ENOUGH PEOPLE WILL BE EXPOSED. >> HERD IMMUNITY, I THINK THE COMMUNITY PART IS WHERE PEOPLE GET CONFUSED. HERD IMMUNITY CAN MEAN A LOT OF THINGS. IT COULD BE THE NURSING HOME. WHO IS AT A HIGHER RISK YOU WILL

HAVE A HARDER TIME WITH THE YOUNGER POPULATION. >> I'M NOT HERE FOR A BATTLE, I THINK YOU ARE MAKING ASSUMPTIONS THAT ARE NOT THERE YET. WE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR TWO MONTHS. THE DEMAND HAS OUTWEIGHED THE SUPPLY.

[00:35:01]

I CANNOT SEE THE DEMAND. I DON'T KNOW HOW FULL EVERYTHING IS.

I DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO OTHER COUNTIES. >> AS THEY OPEN UP NEW CATEGORIES WE WILL GET SWAMPED AGAIN, AT SOME POINT AT THE END, --

>> ONCE YOU GET TO PHASE THREE, THE VACCINE IS THERE AND THEN YOU ARE WORKING ON WHAT IS THE

HESITANCY. >> THAT IS WHEN -- THAT IS WHEN THE MARKETING CAMPAIGN KICKS IN.

>> I GUESS THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. >> TO HAVE 5,000 APPOINTMENTS AND ONLY SOME THAT WERE OPEN LATE, THE DEMAND IS STILL THERE. YES, IT IS NOT FILLING UP IN 20 MINUTES BUT WE WANT THIS TO BE WHERE YOU EQUAL THE DEMAND WITH THE SUPPLY.

WE WILL HAVE THIS HUGE SURGE THAT WILL HAPPEN. I SEE THE GOVERNOR TRYING TO BE

SAVED BUT -- >> THEY HAVE -- >> THEY ARE NOT AS SAVVY, MAYBE

THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET ON THE COMPUTER. >> IT JUST SAYS THOSE OVER 65

WHO HAVE BEEN VACCINATED. >> I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS TO SHOTS.

WE HAVE MAYBE TWO SHOTS THAT WILL GET US AROUND 70,000. OF COURSE, 40,000 DOSES INCLUDE

HEALTHCARE WORKERS THAT HAVE BEEN VACCINATED. >> I THINK IT IS VIABLE FOR YOU TO MENTION, I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL FACEBOOK PAGES, CAN YOU CONFIRM FOR US, HOW MANY SHOTS CLAY COUNTY HAS THROWN AWAY BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT HAD AN ARM TO PUT THEM IN COLLECTS.

>> 0. I THINK THAT IS VIABLE FOR THE PUBLIC TO KNOW.

I THINK THERE WAS A DISCUSSION THAT I SAW,. >> THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS WE DO ON THE INVENTORY SIDE. WE CALL IT WAISTED OR UNACCOUNTED FOR.

YOU COULD HAVE DROPPED THE VILE AND THE WHOLE FILE WAS GONE. THAT IS CONSIDERED.

WE HAVE NOT SAID WE HAVE NO ONE TO GIVE THIS TO END THE TIME HAS EXPIRED.

>> IF YOU ARE WATCHING THIS RIGHT NOW, THE MESSAGES, THERE ARE VACCINATIONS AVAILABLE, SO

GET IN THERE AND GET THEM. >> YES. ONLY WITH US.

I WALKED INTO THE WINN DIXIE THE OTHER DAY AND THEY HAD PEOPLE IN THE WAITING AREA TO GET THE VACCINE. IT IS POSSIBLE TO GET THEM AT THIS POINT.

I THINK THAT IS THE BEST WORK WE CAN GET OUT. IT IS NOT AS HARD AS IT WAS.

IT MAY BE DIFFICULT BUT THERE ARE MORE PLACES YOU CAN GET THE VACCINE.

>> I THINK WE WILL SEE IT PIVOTED. YOU WILL SEE A SURGE AGAIN.

YOU WILL SEE THE SURGEON AGAIN, AND THEN YOU WILL SEE. >> HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT PFIZER

[00:40:25]

MOVING. >> IN THE ORIGINAL CLINICAL, THEY DID 30 PARTICIPANTS.

EVERY PERSON THAT GETS THE SHOT, TRACKS THEIR DATA, THEY ARE COLLECTING THE DATA.

AS TIME GOES ON, THEY STAY IN THE CLINICAL TRIAL. THEY WILL BE TRACKING THEM AND DOING BLOODWORK TO SHOW RESEARCH AND EFFECTIVENESS. THEY WILL SEE SHOTS COME ONLINE WHETHER IT IS 2-3 DOSES, OR MAYBE WE THOUGHT WE WERE GETTING THIS MUCH AND WE ARE NOT SO WE

WILL DO A BOOSTER, AND THAT IS WHAT YOU SEE WITH CHICKENPOX. >> YOU CAN TALK US THROUGH THIS.

[11.  Extension of Park Lease Agreements for Omega Park, Carl Pugh Community Park, Little Rain Lake Park, and Twin Lakes Soccer Park]

[12.  Reinstatement and Amendment of Park Lease Agreements for Oakleaf Community Park, Paul C. Armstrong Community Park, Tanglewood Community Park, Walter Odum Community Park, Plantation Sports Complex, and Eagle Harbor Soccer Complex]

>> YOU HAVE A EXTENSIONS OF THE AGREEMENTS FOR A COMMUNITY PART. WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE ASSOCIATIONS AND IS IT YOUR WISH TO EXTEND THE LEASE AGREEMENT SPIRIT IS THE SAME THAT HAS BEEN

IN PLACE OVER LAST YEAR. >> WE WILL MOVE FORWARD AND LEFT THE DIFFERENT ASSOCIATIONS CARRY OUT THEIR SPRING AND THEN WE WILL FIGURE OUT WHERE WE WILL GO FROM THERE.

SO UNDER 11 IT IS THE EXTENSION AND UNDER 12 IT IS THE REINSTATEMENT.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR KIMBERLY? I WILL BE WILLING TO ACCEPT A MOTION TO APPROVE 11 AND 12.

>> SECOND. >> ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. ANY OPPOSED, IT CARRIES 5-0.

>> WE WILL SKIP 13 THAT HAS BEEN PULLED. IT WILL COME BACK PERHAPS AT THE

MR. HOUSEHOLDER WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT. >> THIS WAS OPENED ON THE SECOND OF FEBRUARY. WE RECEIVED FOR BIDS. STAFF IS RECOMMENDING TO AWARD THE BID TO JMD MAINTENANCE AND SERVICES. WE ARE REQUESTING THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY AGREEMENT AND SERVICES WILL START ON THE FIRST OF MARCH.

DOES ANYONE HAVE QUESTIONS? >> HOW MUCH DO WE HAVE THAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS CONTRACT?

>> THIS ONE I DID CLARIFY, THIS IS JUST FOR FACILITIES LIKE THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT, LIBRARIES, IT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE PARKS OR THE ASSOCIATION PARKS, THAT IS IN A BID THAT THE ROAD.

[00:45:02]

IT DOES HAVE 20 LOCATIONS. >> I GUESS WHERE I'M GOING, WHEN I WAS FIRST ELECTED, THIS WAS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT TALKED ABOUT, WE HAVE A LOT OF COUNTY EMPLOYEES CUTTING GRASS AND WE COULD PROBABLY HELP THE ECONOMY BY SENDING THIS STUFF OUT. AT THIS POINT AND TIME, HOW MUCH

GRASS CUTTING IS INTERNAL AND HOW MUCH CONTRACTED? >> I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK TO STUDY THIS. THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF PUBLIC WORKS TO DO RIGHT OF WAYS AND OTHER SERVICE INCLUDING LABOR, I CAN ANSWER FOR THE FACILITY SIDES.

IT IS PRETTY MUCH ALL CONTRACT. ON THE PARKSIDE WE DID INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PARKS.

OUR EMPLOYEES, WOULD BE FOCUSING ON DIFFERENT THINGS BUT THEY CAN DO A BETTER JOB AT THE PARK.

>> JUST OFF OF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD, ARE WE AT 50-70%? IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE AN EXACT

MEMBER. >> IF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT WHAT THE FACILITIES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WE ARE PROBABLY IN THE 70% RANGE. THERE'S NOT MANY ASSOCIATION PARKS THAT ARE LARGER. YOU CAN LOOK AT IT BY NUMBER OR ACREAGE.

I CANNOT ANSWER FOR ONE OF PUBLIC WORKS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR. THEY DO POND MAINTENANCE AND ROADSIDE. I KNOW THE TRAIL IS HANDLED BY PUBLIC WORKS.

WE WOULD HAVE TO -- >> MAYBE SOMEONE CAN PULL THAT NUMBER FOR THE NEXT MEETING.

>> ARGUES TO WATCH HOW MANY LAWNMOWERS WE BOUGHT. CERTAINLY, I THINK IT IS BETTER

FOR US TO DO IT. >> WE ARE DEFINITELY MOVING IN THE DIRECTION OF ASSIGNING A.

IN PARKS THERE ARE MORE OF IT UNDER CONTRACT NOW. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR

JAMES? >> WE HAVE A REQUIREMENT TO HAVE OVERSIGHT.

IS THIS A FULL-TIME JOB? >> IT IS. THAT IS THE INTERESTING THING.

CONTRACTS CAN'T BE JUST A SIGN, IT TAKES CLOSE MANAGEMENT. IT HAS BEEN OUR EXPERIENCE YOU START OUT STRONG, IF YOU DON'T STAY ON TOP OF IT BACKSIDES. WE WANT SOMEONE TO MAKE SURE THE WORK WAS DONE. GOOD WEATHER DELAYS SO THEY ARE OFF SCHEDULE.

KEEP UP WITH THEIR SCHEDULE, WE HAVE RUN INTO THAT. THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSIONS AND WE WILL SET UP EXPECTATIONS AND LET THEM KNOW, WE WILL ASSIGN PEOPLE TO WATCH OUT FOR THE WORK. THE GROUNDS MAINTENANCE MANAGER OR WHOEVER HE APPOINTS, THEIR RESPONSIBILITY WILL BE TO GO AND INSPECT THE WORK AND DOUBLE CHECK THE INVOICES.

[23.  Bid Opening Tabulations]

OPENING TABULATIONS. >> DO WE NEED TO VOTE ON THAT, SINCE WE ALREADY APPROVED THE

CONTRACTING? >> I CAN BRING MY COMMENTS UP. >> WE HAVE TWO COMMENTS FOR YOU.

[COUNTY MANAGER]

THE DEADLINE TO APPLY IS MARCH 6. THE FIRST AWARD WILL BE APRIL.

THE PROJECT SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY DECEMBER 2021. IT IS CALLED A WIRELESS ISP.

HAVING THIS EARLIER, WE SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE FROM A COMPANY WE DEAL WITH ABOUT THIS TYPE OF SERVICE. IT IS A BROADBAND WITH 25/FIVE PER SECOND PERIOD THE COST WOULD BE $75 PER MONTH ON THIS. IT DOES HAVE AN ANTENNA. YOU CAN PLACE IT ON TOP OF BUILDINGS AND LIBRARIES. THE COST TO PUT THE ANTENNA ON THE TOWER IS LESS EXPENSIVE.

THIS WOULD BE $500 PER MONTH FOR RENTAL AS AN EXAMPLE. THIS IS ONE OF THE IDEAS WE HAVE TO HANDLE THE LACK OF INTERNET SERVICE IN SOME AREAS. AS THE BOARD PLEASES, I DON'T KNOW IF I NEED A VOTE ON IT OR NOT, I WOULD BE DOING SOMETHING OUT OF THE NORM TO APPLY FOR THE GRANTS. SO, A QUICK TURNAROUND ON THIS, LOOKING TO SEE IF WE CAN TAKE

ADVANTAGE OF THIS. >> TELL US WHAT THE GRANT MONEY WOULD COVER?

[00:55:02]

>> IT COULD BE FROM INSULATION OR WE COULD LOOK AT TAKING CARE OF RESIDENTS WITHIN THE AREA.

TROY CAN HELP ME TOO. THE OTHER WOULD BE INSTALLING THE ANTENNA ITSELF ON THE

LIBRARY OR OTHER BUILDINGS,. >> I THINK THE COUNTY MANAGER COVERED MOST OF IT.

THEY WILL HAVE THE LIBRARY OF SERVICE. WE WOULD HELP TO DIVERT THE COST BY PUTTING THE ANTENNAS ON OUR BUILDING. AND WE CAN HAVE A THIRD PARTY BY THE EQUIPMENT. THE CITIZEN WOULD PICK UP THE SERVICE FEE.

IT WOULD BE A WAY TO GET THE SERVICE INTO THE AREAS SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO RUN LINES DOWN THE ROAD. WHEN YOU TRY TO RUN THE LINES THERE'S NOT ENOUGH CUSTOMERS TO MAKE IT COST-EFFECTIVE BECAUSE THERE'S NO INFRASTRUCTURE OTHER THAN THE ANTENNA.

>> CAN WE PUT IT AT THE TRANSFER STATIONS? THE LIBRARIES ARE IN AREAS WHERE

WE DON'T HAVE GOOD SERVICE. >> IT WOULD BE ANYWHERE THEY CAN GET SERVICE TO.

THE HIGHER YOU GO, THE MORE OUT IT GOES. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT CAN GO 5-7 MILES. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE AS CLOSE AS WE THINK.

WE COULD USE A FIRE STATION, YOU PUT SOMETHING ON TOP, IF YOU CAN GET 3- MILES FROM THAT THAT IS

GOOD. >> WHAT ABOUT THE MICROWAVE TOWERS?

>> WE WOULD HAVE TO SEE WHAT THE TOWER SUPPORT. THE HIGHER YOU GET, THE BETTER YOU ARE. THAT IS SOMETHING WE WOULD HAVE TO CONSIDER.

WHAT DO THE TOWERS HAVE ON THEM, AND WE DON'T WANT TO JEOPARIZE THE RADIO COMMUNICATION.

AGAIN, WE HAVE NOT LOOKED INTO THAT TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO INTERFERENCE.

>> IS THERE ANY MATCH ON OUR PART? >> THERE WAS NO MATCH ON THE

GRANT. >> IS THIS AN EXCLUSIVE DEAL? WE CAN OPEN THIS UP TO OTHER

PROVIDERS. >> WE WOULD HAVE TO APPLY TO THE GRANT AND WE NEED ONE PARTNER BUT WE COULD OPEN THAT UP FOR AN RFP. THAT COULD BE FOR MANY OF THEM

AS LONG AS WE CAN GET THE SERVICE DONE BY DECEMBER. >> I GUESS, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE COMPETITION HERE. WE GOT INTO A BIND WITH THE CABLE SERVICE THE SAME WAY, WE HAD TO PROVIDERS. ONE DROPPED OUT AND NOW I CANNOT CALL ANYONE.

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS, IF AT&T OR SOMEONE SAYS WE WANT TO DO THIS AND WE SAY FINE BUT WE

WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUT SOMEONE ELSE'S ANTENNA UP THERE. >> YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE RIGHT, YOU CANNOT HAVE TO PROVIDERS SERVICING THE SAME AREA.

I THINK YOU WOULD BE LIMITED UNDER THE GRANT DOLLARS TO ONE PERSON PER AREA.

THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN'T HAVE SOMEONE DO CLAY HILL AND SOMEONE ELSE TO DO AND PRIVATELY

SWAP THEM LATER ON. >> THAT IS STILL NO COMPETITION. >> IF THAT IS THE ONLY WAY WE CAN DO IT, FINE, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GUARANTEE COVERAGE IN ONE AREA, I KNOW THAT IS WHAT

THEY WANT, BUT I DON'T WANT THAT. >> I THINK THIS IS A BRIDGE TO A POINT WHERE WE GET MORE WIDESPREAD SERVICE BY BRINGING IT TO THOSE AREAS, WE DON'T WANT TO PEOPLE JUMPING IN. MY FEELING IS, WE GO AHEAD WITH THE GRANT, WRAP IT OUT.

DO YOU ANTICIPATE, IN ADDITION TO US PUTTING UP THE ANTENNA, THAT WE WOULD SUBSIDIZE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED BY PAYING FOR THE EQUIPMENT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO RECEIVE THE

SERVICE? >> WE CAN SET THAT UP ALSO. JUST TO ADDRESS THE CONCERNS ABOUT COMPETITION. I FULLY SUPPORT COMPETITION. I WANTED TO THROW ANOTHER IDEA

[01:00:04]

WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A MEETING WITH SKYLINE. THEY OFFER INTERNET THROUGH SATELLITE. THIS WOULD BE THE ALTERNATIVE FOR THE COMPETITION.

A SATELLITE YOU ARE OBTAINING INTERNET THROUGH OR THIS BROADBAND IS ANOTHER WAY.

I CAN TELL YOU THE COST IS $99 PER MONTH. I DO NOT HAVE THE SPEEDS YET.

WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE SPEEDS ARE. >> I WAS GOING TO SIGN UP WHEN WE WERE STARTING. I PUT IN MY ADDRESS, AND IT WENT AWAY.

>> IT SAID USERS CAN EXPECT TO USE DATA SPEEDS THAT VARY AND IN MOST LOCATIONS, THEY WILL ENHANCE THE SYSTEM. IT IS A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE TO GET STARTED.

THE WHOLE THING WAS 5-$600. THEY SAID TODAY ONLY, $99. BUT THE WHOLE THING IS 600

BUCKS. >> OUR INTENT WAS TO PARTNER WITH THEM IN THE BETA PHASE TO GET INTO THE FRONT DOOR AND LOOK FOR OTHER GRANTS OUT THERE TO HELP US OUT.

THERE ARE OTHERS TROY HAVE BEEN PURSUING. >> THEY DO SAY IT IS LIMITED AT THIS TIME. ORDERS WILL BE FULFILLED THE AREA IS COVERED.

PART WAS GIVEN TO WINDSTREAM. I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY DECIDED THAT.

THE FCC DID NOT HONOR COMPETITION SO THAT WAS INTERESTING.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY -- >> BASICALLY THEY GOT AWARDED A PLACE NOBODY ELSE BEEN ON.

IF YOU DID NOT BID ON THE AREA, THEY HAD IT. IF YOU CAN'T MAKE MONEY ON IT,

YOU DON'T GET MUCH COMPETITION. >> I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE THAT OPTION OPEN.

>> IT IS CRAZY TO THINK THAT BECAUSE THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE ON LOWER OR FIXED INCOMES AND THEY ARE PAYING UP TO $300 PER MONTH FOR CRAPPY SATELLITE SERVICE.

SORRY IF THAT IS OFFENSIVE TO ANYONE. THAT IS THE TRUTH.

THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE. I THINK ALL OF THE RESIDENTS WOULD PAY.

>> TECHNOLOGY IS CATCHING UP WHERE BEFORE EVERYTHING HAD TO BE WIRED TO THE HOUSE.

SATELLITE. THERE ARE DIFFERENT WAYS NOW THAT PEOPLE CAN GET SERVICE INTO THOSE AREAS. AS YOU SEE THE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOP YOU WILL SEE MORE

COMPETITION. >> I MOVE THAT WE APPLY FOR THE GRANT.

>> TRUEST IS A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. WHO IS OUR PARTNER?

>> WE WERE JUST LOOKING FOR INFORMATION. AT THIS POINT, IT IS JUST

FACT-FINDING TO GET INFORMATION. >> ARE WE TALKING ABOUT AN ISP PROVIDER BEING OUR PROVIDER?

>> IS A WISP AND WIRELESS INSTEAD OF THE TRADITIONAL. >> SO IT PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE ONE OF YOUR 3-4 COMPANIES THAT ARE PROVIDING INTERNET SERVICE TO THE HOME.

IT WOULD BE THE PERSON WHO GETS US PAST THE PROBLEM OF GOING DOWN THE ROAD.

THE SAME TECHNOLOGY THEY USE IN BIG CITIES, THEY PUT UP THE WIRELESS ANTENNA AND THEY'VE

BEEN USING THE TECHNOLOGY FOR YEARS. >> ALSO, IF THE BOARD GIVES APPROVAL TO APPLY, AND THE NEXT BOARD CAN TALK ABOUT THE FEES THEN IN THE WORST CASE, IF WE

[01:05:03]

THEY DO NOT REQUIRE YOU TO NAME YOUR PARTNER, THEY SAY YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE A COMMITMENT FROM A

PERSON WHO WILL BRING THE SERVICE TO THE AREA. >> THAT IS WHY WE AT THE CONVERSATION, TO MAKE SURE WE HAD A COMPANY WILLING TO DO THIS WITH US.

THE WORST THING WE CAN DO IS GET THE GRANT AND NOT HAVE ANYONE WHO WANTS TO WORK WITH US.

>> REFRESH MY MEMORY HOW MUCH CRACKS. >> $125,180,000.

>> WHAT DO WE HAVE IN TERMS OF DOLLARS CRACKS THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY EXPOSURE.

>> WHO PREPARES THE GRANT? OF. >> THE PLAN WOULD BE TO PAY FOR

THE BOXES THAT GO TO PEOPLE HOUSES. >> YOU GET ALL OF THAT FOR $180,000 $200 PER HOUSE, IF YOU DO 500 HOUSES, IN OUR CONVERSATIONS WE COULD COVER A SIZABLE AREA FOR A REASONABLE COST COMPARED TO WHAT PRIOR PROJECTS WE TALKED ABOUT.

INSTEAD OF IT BEING IN THE MILLIONS, WE COULD DO SOME AREAS FOR $100,000.

>> ARE THESE ANTENNAS MICROWAVE? >> THEY ARE A FORM. IT IS A SMALL MICROWAVE ANTENNA.

>> I DON'T THINK IT IS QUESTIONABLE IF WE SHOULD DO IT OR NOT.

AS WE MOVE FORWARD, WE CAN LOOK TO SEE HOW TO ADD ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS.

I DO KNOW, WE DO HAVE COMPANIES SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY BECAUSE THEY WANT PAYBACK PERIOD IF THEY'RE ONLY GOING TO GET A FEW CUSTOMERS THEY WON'T, THIS GIVES US A BRIDGE TO HELP PEOPLE GET SERVICE WHO DO NOT HAVE IT NOW OR PEOPLE WHO ARE PLAYING BIG RATES FOR NOT GREAT SERVICE.

I THINK IT IS WORTH THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO AFTER. >> I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH A COUNTY EMPLOYEE WHO HAD A CHILD AT THE COLLEGE AND THEY CANNOT BE AT HOME AND DO THEIR HOMEWORK. THAT IS THE REALITY. IF YOU DON'T LIVE IN OUR AREAS AND UNDERSTAND IT, TO HAVE YOUR COLLEGE STUDENT NOT BE ABLE TO DO THEIR HOMEWORK AT HOME AND HAVE TO GO TO A RELATIVE'S HOUSE, THAT IS A PROBLEM. AGAIN, OUR MOVE THAT WE APPLY

FOR THE GRANT. >> SECOND. >> ANY OTHER INFORMATION YOU

WANT US TO LOOK OUT FOR CRACKS. >> IF THERE IS ANYTHING ELSE, I AM LOOKING AT THE TOTAL RENT AMOUNT. AT THE NEXT BOARD SHOULD THERE BE SOMETHING THERE QUACKS AND REST ASSURED, DURING THE APPLICATION PROCESS, IF SOMETHING COMES UP AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL COST US EXTRA, I WILL COME BACK TO THE BOARD AND SAY WE DID NOT APPLY FOR IT BECAUSE THERE WAS RISK THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT FOR US OR THE COMMUNITY TO TAKE ON.

WE ARE STRAIGHTFORWARD ON THIS. I WANTED TO ADD THAT. >> I SAY GO FOR THE MAX.

WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE IT CARRIES 5-0.

[01:10:03]

DID YOU HAVE ANOTHER ITEM QUACKS. >> IT IS REALLY QUICK AND A STATEMENT. WE ARE WORKING TO DETERMINE AND IDENTIFY OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE GRANT SOLUTION. BY THE NEXT MEETING WE WILL HAVE WORD ON THAT.

I JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU A HEADS UP ON THAT. >> CBDG AND IT IS CORONAVIRUS RELATED. IT APPLIES TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH AREA OF WHERE WE CAN USE THE

MONEY. >> LET ME JUST COMMENT ABOUT THE GRANT.

>> IT IS A SIDEWALK TYPE THING. IT IS A TOUGH GRANT. ALL RIGHT, HOWARD WILL STAND BY

[19.  5:00 p.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard - Public Hearing pursuant to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for the purpose of considering a resolution approving, among other things, the proposed issuance by the City of Jacksonville, Florida of its City of Jacksonville, Florida Health Care Facilities Revenue Bonds (Baptist Health), Series 2021, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150,000,000.00, in one or more series, for the purpose of providing funds to be loaned by the Issuer to Southern Baptist Hospital of Florida, Inc. (which includes improvements to the Baptist Clay Medical Campus on Fleming Island) (C. Grimm)]

PURSUANT TO SECTION 147 OF THE REVENUE CODE AS AMENDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF ISSUANCE BY FLORIDA HEALTHCARE FACILITIES. THE REASON THAT YOU ARE SEEING THAT HERE TODAY IS BECAUSE, SOME OF THOSE DOLLARS, THAT WILL BE RAISED IN THE FUNDS WILL BE SPENT HERE IN CLAY COUNTY AND BAPTIST FLEMING ISLAND. WE DO HAVE PEOPLE FROM BAPTIST JOINING US.

IF YOU WOULD JUST IDENTIFY YOURSELF. >> I AM THE CHIEF TREASURE

OFFICER. >> BEHIND US IS OUR CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER.

I WILL GIVE YOU A QUICK TWO MINUTE FLY OVER THEN TURN IT OVER TO SCOTT.

>> WE OPENED IN MAY, 2013 WITH EMERGENCY CARE AND MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS AND BROUGHT DIFFERENT PROVIDERS TO THE REGION. WE HAVE EXPANDED OUR CAMPUS AS LONG AS WE COULD. WE APPLIED FOR CERTIFICATE OF DEED IN THE PAST.

WE BUILD A SURGERY CENTER. NOW, WE NO LONGER HAVE IT IN PLAY AND WE HAVE ELECTED TO BUILD A 100 BED HOSPITAL AND THE FACILITY IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. WE ARE PLANNING TO ADD LABOR AND DELIVERY SERVICES, AND A HOST OF OTHER CARE OPTIONS FOR THE RESIDENTS, THE ANTICIPATED OPENING IS OCTOBER 22. WITH 500 JOBS WITH THE AVERAGE SALARY OF $80,000.

WE WANT TO CONTINUE TO EXPAND AND BRING OTHER COMPETITIVE OPTIONS.

WITH THAT, I WILL TURN IT OVER FOR AN UPDATE ON THE BOND. >> GOOD EVENING.

THE COUNTY AGREEMENT IS WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO PROVE. WE WILL ISSUE NEW DEBT FOR $150 MILLION. IT IS FOR MAJOR CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS.

WEEP WILL LIMIT WHAT WE HAVE AT $80 MILLION. ANY QUESTIONS QUACKS.

>> I DON'T HAVE ANY. DOES ANY OF THE COMMISSIONERS HAVE QUESTIONS QUACKS.

>> WE ARE GOOD, THANK YOU. LOOKING FOR A MOTION. >> WE DO HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK. AS YOU COME UP, IDENTIFY YOURSELF AND GIVE US YOUR HOME ADDRESS. PUBLIC HEARING IS OPEN. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD TO THE DISCUSSION ON THIS ISSUE. WE SEE NOT NOW WE WILL BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> MOVE FOR APPROVAL. >> CAN WE MAKE SURE THE MOTION INCLUDES ENTRY INTO THE INNER

CITY OF JACKSONVILLE. >> I MOVE WE APPROVE THE RESOLUTION AND THE AGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE AND CLAY COUNTY. >> SECOND PERIOD.

[20.  5:00 p.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard - Final Public Hearing to Consider CPA 2020-11 to amend 1.01 acres on SR 21 from Urban Core (10) to Commercial (District 2 Commissioner Bolla) (PC Vote 7-0 to Approve) (B. Carson)]

>> I WILL GO FAST BECAUSE THE AGENDA IS MOVING QUICKLY. THIS IS CPA 2020-11 A SMALL LAND

USED TO AMEND FROM COMMERCIAL. >> THE TAX PARCEL IS LISTED THERE.

IT IS 1.1 ACRES. THIS IS THE EXISTING LAND USE. IT IS A CHURCH LOCATED TO THE WEST OR SOUTH, THAT IS THE REST OF THE PARCEL. THE EXISTING ZONING IS THERE.

BEHIND IT IS AR. THERE IS SOLID WASTE CAPACITY THIS WOULD POTENTIALLY PROVIDE FOR 44.7 PEAK HOUR TRIPS. THEY WOULD HAVE TO PROVIDE STORM MANAGEMENT.

AS IT COULD BE TWO DWELLING UNITS, AS COMMERCIAL IT IS THAT RATIO.

THE PLANNING COMMISSION VOTED TO APPROVE AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

THE APPLICANT IS HERE IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. HOW IS THAT GOING TO WORK.

IT LOOKS LIKE A ROAD. THIS IS A ROAD. THIS CAME TO LIFE BECAUSE THEY BROUGHT IN THEIR PLANS AND WE IDENTIFIED THIS WAS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE COMP PLAN AND THE ZONING. THE PIECE OF LAND WAS OWNED BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THEY SOLD IT ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. IT IS BASICALLY A DRIVE-IN. THERE IS A CURB -- LIKE A MEDIAN

CUT AT THAT POINT, SO IT IS A NICE DRIVEWAY. >> IT WILL BE USED AS A ROAD

QUACKS. >> IF THEY ARE HERE TO DISCUSS IT BUT IT WOULD BE THERE

DRIVEWAY. >> THE COMMERCIAL STUFF WOULD GO ON THE IN.

>> WE DO HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING. D'ANGELO MY NAME IS MATTHEW, ALSO WITH ME TODAY IS FRANK WITH

THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR. >> THIS USED TO BE THE CHURCH THERE BUT IT GOT TORN DOWN.

[01:20:03]

THAT WILL GET BIGGER READ. >> DOES HAVE A. >> THIS WILL HAVE.

>> THAT IS NOT A BUSINESS THAT IS AN EXISTING CHURCH SO YOU HAVE A RED ONE.

THERE IS A ROADWAY WHICH GIVES ACCESS TO THE CHURCH PROPERTY THAT IS TO THE RIGHT.

IT PROBABLY GOES TO THE LEFT THEY DECIDED TO SELL IT TO MY KNOWLEDGE ON THE PROPERTY.

TO ANSWER YOU ON FROM WHAT YOU ARE CALLING THE ENTRY AND THE PERSON WERE TALKING ABOUT AND TO THE LEFT OF THAT THIS IS IN FRONT OF THE FENCE. THE THIS IS THE ONLY THING WE OWN THAT WAS NOT ZONE PROPERLY. THAT WAS THE PURPOSE TO MERGE IT I'M TRYING TO ENVISION WHAT WILL HAPPEN. THERE WILL BE A NICE ENTRY AND IT WILL GO FROM NORTH TO SOUTH.

>> WILL IT BE A GARAGE FOR RVS. THAT RVS CAN PULL IN AND WHEN THEY SAY SERVICE AND UPGRADES,.

>> IT WOULD BE LIKE AN UPDATE -- UPGRADE FACILITY. THEY GET THEM READY FOR THE

CUSTOMER AND THAT IS ALL THEY DO >> ANY TRAFFIC CONCERNS QUACKS. >> NOT TO MY KNOWLEDGE.

IT HAS TWO ENTRIES, ONE FROM THE NORTH AND SOUTH AND I THINK THAT KEEPS THE TRAFFIC FLOWING SO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO GO BOTH WAYS. TECH ANY OTHER QUESTIONS WE WILL SEE IF ANYONE HAS ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. DOES ANYONE WANT TO SPEAK.

WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD. >> MOVED FOR APPROVAL.

[01:25:03]

>> WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. IT CARRIES 5-0.

[21.  5:00 p.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard - Final Public Hearing to Consider Rezoning Application Z-20-13 AR to BB-3 (District 2 Commissioner Bolla) (PC Vote 7-0 to Approve) (B. Carson)]

I THOUGHT THIS WAS A TEST THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING CHANGE TO GO FROM THE CURRENT ZONING AND THE BUSINESS DISTRICT WHICH WOULD MATCH THE ADJACENT PARCEL THEY ARE PLANNING TO BUILD.

IT IS 1.1-ACRE AND YOU HAVE APPROVED IT TO BE COMMERCIAL. TH APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO DO THIS THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP. TO THE NORTH AND EAST THIS IS TO THE SOUTH AND WEST IT IS AN AERIAL PHOTO OF THE SITE STAFF HAS REVIEWED THE APPLICATION AND DETERMINE IT IS COMPREHENSIVE HERE PLANNING AND ZONING RECOMMENDED APPROVAL 7-0. STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF

THIS PPLICATION. >> ANY QUESTIONS FOR BETH? WE WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

ANYONE INTERESTED IN SPEAKING ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE, OR DO WE NEED TO TALK TO THE APPLICANT QUACKS WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> MOVED FOR APPROVAL. >> SECOND PERIOD ANY OTHER DISCUSSION QUACKS ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. IT CARRIES 5-0. THANK YOU GENTLEMEN AND BEST OF

LUCK. >> NUMBER 22, THIS IS THE SECOND READING, TO ADD BOBBLING

[22.  5:00 p.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard - Final Public Hearing to add Bottling Beverage Facilities as a use within the Branan Field Mixed Use Land Use category. (PC voted 7-0 to Approve) (District 2 Commissioner Bolla) (E. Lehman)]

BEVERAGE FACILITIES FOR THE LAND USE CATEGORY. >> NOTHING MORE TO SAY, YOU COVERED IT. THIS IS THE SECOND READING, TWO PLACES TO ADD BOBBLING BEVERAGES. AND CHANGING THE REFERENCE WITHIN THE SAME SUBSECTION.

THE APPLICANT IS HERE TODAY. >> DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS QUACKS LET'S GO TO THE PUBLIC HEARING. WE OPEN IT UP. FRANK, WHY DON'T YOU COME UP IF

YOU WANT TO. >> THANK YOU. MY NAME IS FRANK MILLER.

MY ADDRESS IS ONE INDEPENDENT DRIVE IN JACKSONVILLE. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. I THINK YOU ARE WELL VERSED IN WHAT THIS PROJECT IS ABOUT.

IT CAN CREATE A NUMBER OF JOBS AS WELL AS CAPITAL INVESTMENT IN THE COMMUNITY.

WE CANNT DO THAT WITHOUT THIS CHANGE. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY

QUESTIONS. >> ANY QUESTIONS FOR FRANK AT THIS TIME.

DO WE HAVE ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO WANTS TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE QUACKS I SEE NONE, WE

WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD. >> MOVED FOR APPROVAL.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND PERIOD ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. IT CARRIES 5-0.

THAT DOES COMPLETE OUR TIME CERTAIN THROUGH NUMBER 22. WE CAN GO BACK TO OUR REGULAR AGENDA WHICH MEANS WE CAN GO BACK TO THE COUNTY MANAGER. IF ANYTHING ELSE POPPED UP

QUACKS. >> NO. >> COUNTY ATTORNEY QUACKS.

>> NO. AND TARA IS HERE, WE HAVE TWO ITEMS.

>> GOOD EVENING, NOTHING FROM THE FINANCE SIDE BUT FROM THE COURTSIDE, I WANTED TO SAY IF YOU GET CALLS FROM THE COMMISSIONER COMMISSIONER WE HAVE BEEN MONITORING A JURY SCAM. BASICALLY, THE CITIZENS ARE GETTING PHONE CALL SAYING THEY WERE SUMMONED FOR JURY AND THEY SO, THEY ARE PUSHING FOR THESE INDIVIDUALS TO PAY THE FINE OVER THE PHONE. WE HAVE BEEN PUSHING THIS OUT. SOCIAL MEDIA HAS GOTTEN CLOSE TO 20,000 HITS. WE KNOW PEOPLE SEE IT. WE KNOW THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE START TRYING TO OPEN THE COURTS BACK UP, JUST TO GIVE YOU A BACKGROUND.

[01:30:04]

WE COULD NOT SLEEP THE GRAND JURY. BECAUSE THE ONES COMING UP IN MARCH, WE ARE TRYING TO GET THESE THINGS THROUGH THE SYSTEM. WE ARE HAVING A FIRST ROUND OF 800 JURORS AND THE SECOND ROUND WILL BE IN MARCH. ANOTHER 800 JURORS, SO, SHOULD YOU GET A PHONE CALL, THOSE ARE ONES WE DO NEED TO SHOW UP, SO WE CAN SEAT A JURY AND PROCESS THESE THROUGH THE SYSTEM. THE ONE THINK WE WOULD NEVER DO IS LEAVE A MESSAGE FOR A JUROR ON MONEY OLD FOR LACK OF SHOWING UP FOR SERVICE. I JUST WANT TO BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION. THE SECOND THING, BY THE WAY, THE WIRELESS INTERNET WOULD BE PHENOMENAL FOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS BECAUSE IN THE COURT SYSTEM WON OF THE THINGS WE ARE DEALING WITH, A LOT OF HEARINGS, AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE ZOOM MEETINGS.

INTERNET IS VERY IMPORTANT AND SOMETHING THEY KNEW WOULD BE AN ISSUE GOING FORWARD.

THE SECOND THING, THE CARE ZACK MONEY AS IT RELATE TO SHIP AND WITH MORTGAGES AND RENTAL ASSISTANCE. I DID PULL MORE DEFINITIVE NUMBERS AND THIS MAY BE SOMETHING IF YOU WISH, WE CAN HELP YOU WITH A TARGET AUDIENCE. FROM JANUARY 2019-MID-FEBRUARY, WE HAVE HAD 1,628 EVICTIONS FILED, AND WE ACTUALLY HAD 364 PENDING.

SO, IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE OF INTEREST AS FAR AS INDIVIDUALS AT RISK OF BEING EVICTED WE MAY BE ABLE TO HELP YOU WITH THAT. THE SECOND ONE IS FOR SHIP MONEY THAT MAY BE OUT THERE. THAT IS LARGER. WE HAVE THREE FILINGS, FOUR FORECLOSURES BUT WE HAVE CLOSE TO 300 PENDING. THAT IS JUST SOMETHING TO

PROVIDE TO YOU GUYS IF YOU WANT A TARGET AUDIENCE. >> COURTNEY, THAT IS A GOOD WAY

TO START, IDENTIFY WHO NEEDS THE HELP,. >> TESTING TESTING.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WILL QUALIFY BUT IT WILL SHOW WHO IS IN IMMEDIATE NEED.

>> CAN WE CONTACT THEM, IT IS PUBLIC RECORD QUACKS. >> IT IS A COURT RECORD BUT IT

IS AVAILABLE. >> SO THE RENTAL REIMBURSEMENT& TEAM WILL WORK WITH THE CLERK AND SEND OUT, HOPEFULLY VIA E-MAIL, WHICH WOULD BE QUICKER, IF WE NEED TO SEND OUT A LETTER

WE WILL DO THAT. >> IT SHOULD BE A LETTER. >> GET WITH ME OFF-LINE AND WE

WILL SEE WHO WE NEED TO WORK WITH. >> THAT IS A GREAT IDEA.

>> THAT IS ALL I HAVE. >> ANY QUESTIONS WHILE WE HAVE HER QUACKS.

>> RESIDES, THERE IS SOME LEVEL OF FORECLOSURE THAT DOES NOT RELATE TO COVID.

THERE IS A LEVEL OF FORECLOSURE ABOVE THAT BECAUSE OF COVID. THE ASSISTANT FUNDS ARE TARGETED FOR THE COVID POPULATION, NOT NECESSARILY FOR THE ONGOING FORECLOSURES IN THE COURSE OF DAILY BUSINESS. SOME MAY NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH PEOPLE BEING SICK.

I DON'T KNOW IF WE WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENTIATION. >> THEY WOULD NOT PASS THE VENTING. OR IS IT TO CATCH THE ONES THAT ARE DUE TO THE PANDEMIC.

WHAT I WAS SUGGESTING WE TAKE A LOOK AT IS WHAT IS THE NET DIFFERENCE.

I AM SURE SOME OF THE ONES YOU HAVE ON YOUR LIST ARE DUE TO COVID BUT AT THE SAME TIME, HALF

OF THEM ARE NORMAL BUSINESS. >> MOST OF THE ONES PENDING OUR COVID RELATED.

YES, I WOULD ASSUME THAT WOULD BE A REQUIREMENT. DO WE HAVE A SPECIFIC DOCKET

CODE FOR THOSE IMPACTED BY COVID? >> THAT IS SOMETHING WE CAN'T

[01:35:04]

TO QUALIFY. >> I DON'T WANT TO BE THE BAD GUY BUT THERE IS A LIMIT.

THEY HAD TO BE VETTED IN ORDER TO QUALIFY. THIS WOULD BE THE SAME THING.

>> WE WILL SEND OUT A LETTER THAT MEETS THE CRITERIA. IF WE GET MORE ANSWERS WE CAN

GIVE YOU MORE ANSWERS THAT THE COMMUNITY MEETING. >> THANK YOU.

>> SECOND ROUND OF PUBLIC COMMENTS. WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO ADDRESS THE BOARD, THEY CAN COME TO THE MICROPHONE AT THIS POINT. I SEE NO ONE WE WILL CLOSE THE

PUBLIC COMMENTS. >> I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. I FORGOT THIS ONE AND OUR LAST

[COMMISSIONERS' COMMENTS]

I HAVE TWO PRESENT AND A COIN IN MY PURSE. I WILL GIVE IT TO YOU.

I PUT IT IN A SPECIAL PLACE FOR SAFEKEEPING. I KNOW ALL OF YOU HAVE BEEN INVITED TO THE RIBBON CUTTING& CEREMONY. SO, IF YOU CAN ATTEND THAT.

>> THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE TO ACCEPT IT ON OUR BEHALF. >> IT WAS NICE BECAUSE, IT WAS NOT IN MY TERMS SO IT WAS NICE TO HAVE THE COMMISSION ON AS WELL.

HE IS ON ITS APPOINTMENT IN WASHINGTON D.C. WITH THE FLORIDA NATIONAL GUARD.

HE WAS NOT THERE IN PERSON. WAS THERE ANYONE ELSE I'M MISSING THAT WAS ON QUACKS IT WAS A NICE EVENING AND NICE TO BE RECOGNIZED. THE ONLY OTHER THING, THE FORMER PLANNING COMMISSIONER IS FINDING SOME SEVERE HEALTH PROBLEMS. SO I HOPE EVERYONE KEEPS HER IN

YOUR PRAYERS. >> THANK YOU. >> C, I GAVE THE COUNTY AUDITOR REPORT, IT IS ALTERNATE FIELDS. IT WAS AIMED DIRECTLY COUNTY. ESTHER TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING WE CAN DO ANYTHING WITH. LIKE WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE GAS LINE COMING IN AND THE ELECTRIC RECHARGING FACILITIES. I WANTED HER TO READ THROUGH IT AND UPDATE THE NUMBERS TO SEE IF ANYTHING JUMPED OUT I GOT A COPY OF THE NEW EVALUATION SHEET, I

[01:40:05]

>> VERY GOOD, THANK YOU. >> JUST A REMINDER AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MEETING WE HIGHLIGHTED BLACK HISTORY MONTH FESTIVAL TAKING PLACE THIS SATURDAY.

THERE ARE VENDORS AND LIVE ENTERTAINMENT, A PARADE AND FOOD VENDORS.

ALSO, NOT TOO FAR AWAY, AT THE COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS THIS WEEKEND, 100 ATHLETES WILL SHOW UP FOR THE 37TH OR 28TH, SOMEWHERE IN THAT AREA, ALMOST 30 YEARS OF HISTORY THERE.

THEY WILL BE GETTING STARTED ON SATURDAY AT 9:00 A.M., AND THE FOCUS WILL BE ON THEM BECAUSE IT IS THE FIRST EVENT HAPPENING AFTER ALL WERE SUSPENDED LAST YEAR BECAUSE OF THE VIRUS.

EVERYONE IS WATCHING TO SEE HOW WE KEEP EVERYONE SAFE AND HOW WELL WE WILL DO AND I KNOW WE WILL DO JUST FINE. ALSO YESTERDAY, AS PART OF OUR TOURISM EFFORT, THE TEAM FROM THE SOURCE TOURED THE AREA TO LOOK AT THE SUNSHINE STATE GAME THAT WILL BE HOSTED HERE.

THEY HAD A GREAT VISIT. THEY GAVE US HIGH MARKS. THEY WERE VERY SURPRISED AT WHAT WE HAD HERE IN CLAY COUNTY. I TEASED THEM AND SAID WE HAVE ELECTRICITY, RUNNING WATER AND EVERYTHING. THANKFULLY, THEY WERE AMUSED. THEY WILL BE BACK IN JUNE WITH THE ACTUAL GAMES THEMSELVES. THINGS ARE HAPPENING HERE IN CLAY COUNTY.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANYTHING ELSE, IF NOT, WE WILL ADJOU
