COUNTY GOB.COM. AND THAT CONCLUDES OUR PET 
          ADOPTIONS. >> COMMISSIONERS,. 
          >> YOU HAVE A PROCLAMATION FOR NATIONAL FIRE PREVENTION WEEK. 
          OCTOBER 9-15 IS NATIONAL FIRE PREVENTION WEEK. 
          IT IS A CONCERN AND THESE ARE THE LOCATIONS WHERE PEOPLE ARE AT THEIR GREATEST RISK FROM FIRE. 
          IT IS OF CRITICAL IMPORTANCE THAT PEOPLE PROTECT THEMSELVES AND FAMILY BY PRACTICING FIRE SAFETY AND PLANNING. 
          THIS WAS AT THE MAILBOX FOR US, CHIEF ANTHONY IS HERE WITH THE FIRE EXPENSE EXAMINER -- TO ACCEPT THE PROCLAMATION. 
          I WILL TURN THIS OVER. >> WHEREAS HOME FIRES CAUSED DEATHS IN THE UNITED STATES IN THE YEAR 2020 ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION AND FIRE DEPARTMENT, WE HAD THREE TO 50,500 HOME FIRES EACH YEAR, AS MOST FIRE CASUALTIES RESULTED FROM COOKING, HEATING EQUIPMENT AND ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION AND LIGHTING EQUIPMENT AND WHEREAS HOUSE FIRES CAN BE CAUSED BY OVERLOADED EXTENSION CORDS OR COMBUSTIBLE ITEMS OR UNATTENDED COOKING. 
          WORKING SMOKE ALARMS CUT THE RISK OF FIRE ALARM DESK -- DEATH AND HAVE. THOSE WHO PREPARE A PLAN ARE MORE PREPARED AND WILL MOST LIKELY SURVIVE THE FIRE. 
          AND WHEREAS THE 2022 NATIONAL PREVENTION WEEK THEME IS FIRE WON'T WAKE PLEDGE YOUR ESCAPE TO REMIND EVERYONE TO HAVE A PLAN, JUST LIKE FED CHAIRMAN THAT INCLUDES TWO WEIGHTS OUT OF EVERY ROOM AND A CLEAR PATH TO THE EXIT AND A CLEAR PATH TO CALLED 91. BE IT RESOLVED THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WILL CLAIM OCTOBER 9-15 YEAR 2022 AS FIRE PREVENTION WEEK AND CLAY COUNTY. IN DOING SO ENCOURAGES ALL RESIDENTS TO MAKE SURE THEIR FAMILIES ARE PRACTICING FIRE SAFETY AND PREVENTION THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
          DULY ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS THIS 11TH 
          [00:10:02]
DAY OF OCTOBER 2022. DO WE HAVE A MOTION? WE HAVE A MOTION AND THE SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. 
          IT IS OFFICIAL FIRE PREVENTION WEEK AND CLAY COUNTY. 
          CHIEF, DID YOU WANT TO SAY A WORD? 
          >> I WILL SAY ONE QUICK AND THEN I WILL PASS IT OVER. 
          >> I THINK WE WOULD BE REMISS, THIS IS THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE COMMEMORATION OF FIRE PREVENTION WEEK. 
          AND THAT PERIOD WAS CHOSEN BECAUSE OCTOBER 8, 1971 FRANKLY IS ONE OF THE DARKEST DAYS IN U.S. FIRES HISTORY. 
          IT WAS AS A RESULT FIRST LEVEL FIRE THAT WAS ALLEGED TO HAVE STARTED IN ( INDISCERNIBLE ) BUT IT BURNED FOR TWO DAYS DESTROYING STRUCTURES AND 300 TEST AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO THREE-POINT THREE BOTTLES OF THE CITY. 
          THE IRONY OF IT, THAT WAS NOT THE WORST FIRE THAT OCCURRED IN THE UNITED STATES THAT DAY. IN WISCONSIN A WILDFIRE LITERALLY ROARED OUT OF THE FORCE DESTROYING THE CITY AND CAUSING 1700 DEATHS. AS A PERIOD OF TIME OF 50 YEARS WE DECIDED HOW TO COMMEMORATE IT EFFECTIVELY AND IN 1921 THEY DECIDED THE FOLLOWING YEAR, IN 1902 THEY WOULD START FIRE PREVENTION WEEK TO REALLY ANNOUNCE BOOK FIRE PREVENTION AND HOPE TO IT. WE ARE NOT IMMUNE IN THIS AREA BECAUSE IN 1901 A LARGE PORTION OF THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE WAS DESTROYED. WHEN YOU GO BACK TO 2016 AND WE SAW GATLINBURG HAVE DEVASTATING FIRES THEY STILL OCCUR IN THE WEST. BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE CAN DO IS PLANT FIRE SAFETY BEST ASK SAFETY IN OUR OWN HOMES. 
          WE WERE TALKING BEFORE WE CAME IN, WE HAD AN EXTENSIVE FIRE THIS MORNING AND IT DOES NOT GO AWAY, YOU HAVE TO BE AWARE. 
          THANK YOU FOR THE PROCLAMATION. >>> LET ME HAND THIS TO YOU AS 
          WELL. >> AS MENTIONED IN THE PROCLAMATION BUT THE CHIEF WHO STOLE ALL OF MY THUNDER, WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THAT, STILL, AT 100 YEARS, THE LONGEST RUNNING PUBIC HEALTH POLICY THAT THIS COUNTRY AS EVER SEEN, WE STILL LOSE OVER 2600 PEOPLE PER YEAR TO HOME FIRES. 
          AND CLAY COUNTY IS NOT IMMUNE. IT IS NICE AND WE CAN SEE THAT WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO. 
          THE COUNTY HAS ENTERED A NICE PARTNERSHIP WITH THE RED CROSS. 
          THE RED CROSS DONATES SMOKE DETECTORS TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. THE PROGRAM HERE, BUT GUYS ON THE TRUCK WILL ACTUALLY COME TO YOUR HOME, INSTALL SMOKE DETECTORS AND THEN SIT WITH YOU, AND PLAN A FIRE SAFETY PLAN. 
          AS MENTIONED, THE PLAN IS GREAT, BUT YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE IT. 
          THE KEY AND THIS IS GETTING THAT PLAN AND PRACTICING IT. 
          SO I WANT TO THANK YOU. 
          [Tourism Strategic Plan Overview]
          >> NEXT WE HAVE A PRESENTATION FROM THE TOURISM STRATEGIC 
          PLANNING EFFORTS. >> GOOD EVENING THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. I AM EXCITED TO BE HERE AND THIS PROJECT AND THE PLANNING INCLUDED IN THE FULL REPORT. 
          A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND FOR ALL OF YOU THAT WE'VE MET WITH IN OUR INITIAL VISIT. BUT OUR PARTNERS, AND HAVE BEEN 
          [00:15:01]
WORKING ON A TOURISM SEARCH -- STRATEGIC PLAN FOR THE LAST SIX MONTHS. THIS IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE IDEAS AND RESEARCH AND INSIGHT AS TO WHERE CLAY COUNTY STANDS TODAY AS A TOURISM DESTINATION AND THE POTENTIAL AND IT LAYS DOWN STEP-BY-STEP PLANS AND ACTIONS THAT WE CAN DO OVER THE NEXT 3-5 YEARS TO BETTER DEVELOP CLAY COUNTY AS WE SEE FIT AS A DESTINATION WHILE MAINTAINING UNIQUENESS AND AUTHENTICITY AS A PLACE TO LIVE AND WORK. A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND. 
          WE HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR ABOUT 30 YEARS DURING CONSULTING FOR TOURISM, SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT. 
          WE HAVE WORKED IN A VARIETY OF MARKETS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY INCLUDING CLAY COUNTY, BOSTON, LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY. 
          WITH OUR EXPERIENCE, OF 1,000 PROJECTS THIS IS ONE OF THE MORE INTERESTING AND ITS OUTDOOR AND ECO- FOCUS. 
          WE ARE EXCITED TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU TODAY. 
          ON THE CALL WITH ME IS MITCH MYERS. 
          IF YOU JUST WANT TO GIVE A QUICK INTRO ABOUT YOURSELF AS WELL. 
          >> GOOD AFTERNOON, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME AS WELL, IT WAS A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH TYLER AND HIS TEAM AND A FEW OF OUR TEAM MANNERS WE PUT TOGETHER THIS PROGRAM FOR CLAY COUNTY, I AM THE DIRECTOR OF DIGITAL MARKETING AND BRAND STRATEGY I HAVE BEEN WITH THE COMPANY FOR OVER TEN YEARS. 
          THEY SPECIALIZE IN TRAVEL, TOURISM AND DESTINATION PROGRAMS FOR OVER 30 YEARS, WE ARE BASED OUT OF MIAMI, FLORIDA. 
          I AM CURRENTLY IN NASHVILLE TENNESSEE. 
          OUR MAIN OFFICES ARE IN FLORIDA. >> WE WILL GET INTO THE RESEARCH, VERY COMPREHENSIVE AND WE HAVE 150 PAGE REPORT DOCUMENT THAT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED THAT INCLUDES THE ANALYSIS. 
          THIS IS A QUICK OVERVIEW OF EVERYTHING INVOLVED. 
          IN MAY WE MET WITH MANY OF YOU AND MANY OTHER STAKEHOLDERS AND BUSINESS OWNERS, THOSE WHO ARE INVOLVED, EITHER IN PERSON OR IN PERSON. WE INTERVIEWED PAST AND CURRENT WE DIDN'T WANT TO REINVENT THE WHEEL. 
          THERE WERE ALREADY PLANS TO WORK WITH. 
          SEVERAL PLANS THAT WE LOOKED AT. WE ALSO CONDUCTED SOME EXTENSIVE DEMOGRAPHICS, BUYER BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS NOT JUST CLAY COUNTY BUT DRIVABLE REGIONS, SO ANYTHING WITHIN A 2-3 HOUR DRIVE. OUR TARGET CUSTOMER, WHO CAN WE BRING IN HEARING WHAT KIND OF AN IMPACT WITH THEY HAVE ON US. 
          WE ALSO LOOKED AT WHAT WE HAVE TODAY AS FAR AS EVENT FACILITIES AND HOW THOSE COULD BE MADE BETTER. 
          WE COMPARED THAT WITH CURRENT TRENDS, THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF EVOLUTION ESPECIALLY AS GENERATIONS CONTINUED TO SHIP. 
          THERE ARE NEW DESTINATIONS ON WHERE PEOPLE LIKE TO TRAVEL. 
          MORE AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES. HOW CAN WE TIE INTO THAT IN CLAY COUNTY. WE ALSO IDENTIFIED DESTINATIONS THAT BENCHMARK THEM TO FIGURE OUT WHERE WE STAND. 
          WE ALSO CONDUCTED OUTREACH TO 35 OUT OF MARKET REPRESENTATIVES INCLUDING REAL ESTATE AND SPORTS AND ORGANIZERS TO GET A FRESH PERSPECTIVE ON WHAT ARE THE OPPORTUNITIES AND POTENTIAL FOR CLAY COUNTY. THIS SUMS UP THE STRENGTHS AND OPPORTUNITIES WE ARE WORKING WITH. 
          1ST AND FOREMOST, BEING A LOCAL SMALLER COMMUNITY AND MEETING MANY OF YOU IN PERSON AND A LOT OF THE PEOPLE ON THE FRONT LINES DURING OUR SITE VISIT AS WE WENT AROUND TO DIFFERENT ATTRACTIONS. THIS IS A SMALL TOWN AND WE DON'T WANT TO OUTGROW THAT. THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT THE PEOPLE HERE AND HOW WELCOMING THEY HAVE BEEN AND HOW ACCOMMODATING THEY HAVE BEEN. WE DON'T WANT TO EVOLVE OUT OF THAT ANYTIME SOON. BUT OUTDOOR ECO- ASSETS. 
          THE PARKS, THE TRAILS, THE BODIES OF WATER WE HAVE TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO THOSE AMENITIES. 
          PROACTIVE PLANNING, WE ARE AWARE OF THE GROWTH THAT WILL COME WITH THIS. WE ARE GETTING IN FRONT OF THAT. 
          AND THIS IS PERFECT TIMING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE WE WANT TO GO WITH WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE FUTURE. 
          >> WE ANALYZE DEMOGRAPHICS OF THE AREA. 
          [00:20:05]
THIS IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING REGIONS. 
          IT'S A UNIQUE DEMOGRAPHIC, YOUNG FAMILIES AND THOSE LOOKING TO GET OUT AND SPEND THEIR MONEY AT ATTRACTIONS AND EXPERIENCES. 
          WE ARE AFFORDABLE. WE HAVE LOW-COST HOTELS. 
          IT IS PRETTY EASY AND ASSESSABLE FOR FAMILIES TO COME HERE AND ENJOY. THAT TIES INTO YOUTH SPORTS AND WHAT WE CAN DO WITH THAT. THAT IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING MARKETS IT IS SPORTS TOURISM. 
          BUILDING SPORTS TOURISM SPORTS TOURNAMENTS. 
          THIS IS SOMETHING WE THINK WE HAVE POTENTIAL FOR AND I WILL TALK ABOUT THAT. AND MUSIC AND ART. 
          WE HAVE AN ARTS COMMUNITY HERE. WE HAVE TIES TO SLOW THE ROCK HISTORY. MAYBE FOR THE VISITOR INDUSTRY WE CAN TAP INTO ATTRACTIONS AND EVENTS. 
          THERE'S ALSO OPPORTUNITIES, FOR REAL ESTATE DEVELOPERS. 
          THIS LACKS A REAL SECONDARY CONVENTION CENTER IN JACKSONVILLE. THERE IS A GAP, AND SPEAKING WITH THEM THERE IS OPPORTUNITY FOR CLAY TO FILL WHETHER IT IS A NEW EVENT FACILITY OR A PROPERTY THAT MIGHT HAVE EVENT SPACE WITHIN IT. AND AT THE SAME TIME REAL ESTATE OPPORTUNITIES. THERE WILL BE DEVELOPMENT THERE WILL BE GROWTH HOW CAN WE PLAN AND PRIORITIZE ASPECTS OF THOSE DEVELOPMENTS. SOME OF THE CHALLENGES, JUST TO PUT IT SHORT, WE ARE UNDEVELOPED AS A PLACE TO ENJOY AND FIND ENTERTAINMENT. THERE IS A LACK OF THINGS FOR FAMILIES TO DO. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT GO OUT OF THE COUNTY AND SPEND THEIR MONEY IN JACKSONVILLE. 
          IT WAS DEFINITELY ABOVE AVERAGE VERSUS OTHER COUNTIES OF A SIMILAR SIZE. ANOTHER ASPECT IS THE LACK OF WATER ACCESS. THAT IS SOMETHING WE NEED TO PROVIDE, CONVENIENT ACCESS TO THE RIVERS AND THE CREEK, AND THEN THE WORRIES OF OVER TOURISM. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT. 
          IN FLORIDA ESPECIALLY, THE IMPLICATION OF A DESTINATION, TOURISTS COMING FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY AND WE WANT TO PROTECT OUR CHARACTERIZES. AND IN THE PAST YEAR, HANDS-OFF PLANNING, AND THAT WORKS WELL FOR THE PRIVATE SECTOR BUT WHAT WE ARE EXPECTING, CAN WE PLAY A PART IN HELPING TO GUIDE THAT AND STEER THAT FOR THE BENEFIT OF CLAY COUNTY. 
          AND THE QUESTION OF WHO ARE WE. IN TOURISM, THIS IS PART OF OUR PROMOTION AND BRANDING WORK. THE KEY MESSAGE WE ARE TRYING TO GET ACROSS, ARE WE OUTDOORS OR WHAT. 
          THESE ARE THE SEVEN KEY AREAS OF RECOMMENDATION. 
          WE LOOKED AT AMATEUR SPORTS. WE THINK THAT IS A REAL LOW HANGING FRUIT FOR THE REGION, OUTDOOR ADVENTURE, WE HAVE A LOT OF THOSE ASSETS TODAY, PARTS AND CULTURES THAT WILL TOUCH ON A FEW THINGS, THE GUIDING COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT IT WON'T BE PRIVATE BUT HOW DO WE WORK WITH DEVELOPERS TO HAVE INTERESTING PLACES TO DINE IN AND VISIT, KEEP PROJECTS AND IT HAS TO DO WITH THE WATERFRONT ON THE RIVER AND TOURISM PROMOTION AND VISION. THIS IS WHERE THEY FIGURED OUT WAYS WE CAN START TODAY TO MARKET CLAY COUNTY TO A GREAT AUDIENCE, AS WE THINK ABOUT HOW WE WANT TO REFRESH THE BRAND. 
          >> STARTING WITH AMATEUR SPORTS. THESE THREE PICTURES HERE SHOW THE TIMELINE OF WHAT WE ARE THINKING FOR THE REGION. 
          THAT BEGINS WITH BRINGING INTO UNIQUE EVENTS, KIMBERLY AND HER TEAM HAS DONE A GREAT JOB WORKING TOGETHER TO BRING IN THE CHALLENGE TO BRING AND SURFING, AS WELL AS OTHER NICHE EVENTS. 
          WHEAT LACKED THE FACILITIES FOR SOCCER TOURNAMENTS FOR BASKETBALL AND THAT'S NOT JUST CLAY COUNTY THAT IS THE REGION. 
          THAT'S NOT JUST AN OPPORTUNITY FOR CLAY BUT AN OPPORTUNITY TO 
          [00:25:04]
HAVE 10-MORE FIELDS, COURTS, THE SAME STORY FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR SPORTS. BUT THERE IS OPPORTUNITY TO HOST 30-TOURNAMENTS PER YEAR, SOMETIMES 5,000 AND THAT IS WHERE WE TALK ABOUT ROOM NIGHTS ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE EVENTS. 
          SIMPLY BY BUILDING A PRODUCT, WE CAN BUILD IN TENS AND THOUSANDS OF ROOM NIGHTS THAT WE DON'T SEE TODAY, JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE TEN COURTS. SO WE CAN LEVERAGE WHAT WE WHAT WE HAVE TODAY, WE CAN CONTINUE TO TARGET THE NICHE EVENTS MAY BE THAT HIS SPARTAN RACES, WORKING WITH AIRSTREAM TO CONTINUE THAT. WE THINK THERE IS OPPORTUNITY FOR OTHER PARKS TO BE LEVERAGED A LITTLE MORE, OUT-OF-STATE OR OUT-OF-TOWN TOURNAMENTS. IN THE MEANTIME, BEGIN PLANNING FOR THIS PARK, AND I SHOULDN'T SAY BEGIN PLANNING, LET'S START TO PRIORITIZE HOW BIG AND MUCH OF A DROUGHT THAT COULD BE, MEANING, THERE HAS BEEN TOXIC COULD BE 5-10 FIELDS AND WE RECOMMEND THE TEN FIELD OPTION AND INVESTING IN TURF, LIGHTS AND INTO A CONCESSION SO IT IS TOURNAMENT QUALITY. 
          THEN I THINK OF SOMETHING LIKE A FIELDHOUSE, SOMETHING THAT COULD BE USED YEAR-ROUND AND WE DID FOCUS GROUPS AND INTERVIEWS WITH THE ORGANIZERS. WE SAID IF YOU BUILT THIS TODAY 
          WE WOULD START BOOKING TOMORROW. >> WITH OUTDOOR ADVENTURE THIS IS A STORY OF THREE KEY ITEMS. THAT IS THE TRAILS, INVESTING AND I WOULD TRAILS. MAINSTAY ADVENTURE ATTRACTIONS AND PRIORITIZING PARKS FOR POTENTIAL PARKS. 
          ALSO WORKING WITH OUTFITTERS AND PRIVATE BUSINESSES TO BECOME TOUR OPERATORS OR ATTRACTANT -- ATTRACTION OPERATORS AT THE PARK. TODAY WE CAN TALK ABOUT WORKING WITH THE PARKS AND WRECKED DEPARTMENT OF STATE LOOK FOR AREAS IN THE CONSERVATION LANDS. LOOKING AT THAT FROM VISITOR, WHERE ARE THE BEST PLACES TO PUT IN BOAT RAMPS FOR THE VISITOR AND ADD TO WATER ACCESS, CAN WE LOOK AT OPPORTUNITIES WHETHER IT IS TREE HOUSES AND THE CAPTAINS THERE, CAN WE DO A ZIP LINE TO BUILD PRODUCT THAT APPEALS TO THE PRODUCT. 
          AND CAN WE WORK WITH OUR CANOE AND START TO BUILD OUT A KAYAK AND CANOE SCENE. WE TALKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY. 
          THEY DID THIS ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE BY SIMPLY CREATING THIS FACEBOOK PAGE. THEY DID NOT USED TO HAVE WEEKLY VOTING RIGHTS ON THE RIVER. NOW THEY DO BY SIMPLY CREATING A FACEBOOK PAGE. SHOWING THAT YOU CAN'T GET OUT THERE IS CHAPTER ONE. THEN AS WE START BUILDING OUT, WE TALK ABOUT REALLY BUILDING PRODUCT. 
          THAT GOES BACK TO THE TRAILS AND WE KNOW THE GREENWAY IS COMING THROUGH, THAT WILL BE HUGE CONNECTING THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE COUNTY. HOW CAN WE PLAN AND WORK WITH THE STATE AND TAP INTO THAT TRAIL AND CREATE OTHER TRAILS WHETHER IT IS AN EXTENSION THAT THEN BRINGS FOLKS FROM THAT CENTRAL ARTERY TO THE URBAN AREAS WHETHER GREEN COLD SPRINGS OR OTHER AREAS OF INTEREST. THERE'S A LOT OF RIDING IN THE REPORT ON HOW THAT IS DONE. IT'S WORKING WITH THE STATE LEVEL BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE COORDINATION BEHIND THE DEVELOPMENT. WHERE DO WE FIND THE PLACE FOR THE OUTDOOR ADVENTURE PARK. WE ACTUALLY DID A SURVEY O RESIDENTS. THIS WAS THE OUTDOOR PRODUCT THAT WOULD HAVE ZIP LINES, ROCK CLIMBING AND MAYBE THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY WHETHER IT IS AT LAKE GENEVA AND LEVELED OUT WITH THE WATER OR THE POTENTIAL FOR SOMETHING LIKE LAKE HAS VERY. 
          IF WERE TALKING ABOUT PURCHASING LAND AND ABLE TO ACTIVATE THAT 
          [00:30:04]
AND TURN THAT INTO A DESTINATION PARK. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING WE ALSO HEARD. EVERYBODY IS MARKETING JOB THIS PARK, THIS CAN BE NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED IT WOULD BE THE CENTRAL PLATFORM. SO THAT IS THE BIG IDEA FOR OUTDOOR ADVENTURE AND THESE ARE THE AMENITIES WE HAVE SEEN. 
          BILLS THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS. 
          SHE HAS VILLAGE. SCULPTURE -- SCULPTURE, ZIP LINES ON THE RIGHT. THIS HAS WHERE EACH SCULPTURE PLAYS AN INSTRUMENT. SIMILAR TO CLAY FAVORITE YOU KAYAKS PAY RENT EVERYTHING TO WRITE ON THE TRAIL. 
          THAT IS HOW WE BECOME AN OUTDOOR DESTINATION. 
          AN ARTS AND CULTURE, THIS IS EVENTS FESTIVAL. 
          IT IS TAPPING INTO SOUTHERN ROCK AS WELL. 
          WITH ALL OF THESE THINGS TALKING ABOUT SPORTS AND OUTDOORS, THESE ARE THREE DIFFERENT BRANDS BUT I THINK ALL OF THESE THINGS, IF THEY ARE NOT DONE CONCURRENTLY BUT THEY CAN'T BE DONE IN SEGMENTS. WE CAN FOCUS ON THESE DIFFERENT ASPECTS. THERE IS A LOT OF POSSIBILITIES. 
          THERE'S A LOT OF MOVING PIECES BUT SPEAKING WITH THE ARTS COUNCIL AND STAKEHOLDERS THERE IS POTENTIAL. 
          IN THE NEAR TERM WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT THE FESTIVALS THAT WE HAVE TODAY AND WHICH ONES CAN WE GROW. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT IN THE PAST. 
          AND SCOTTISH GAMES AND HOW CAN WE MAKE THEM MORE INTERESTING OR MORE MULTIFACETED. DO WE HAD AN EDUCATION AND BRING IN BIGGER CONCERTS. DO WE HAVE A CONTEXT TO GROW. 
          THIS IS NOT JUST A TWO DAY EVENT, THE PUBLIC ART. 
          KIMBERLY HAS DONE EARLY WORK PUTTING TOGETHER THE ARTS COUNCIL. THAT WAS REALLY RECOMMENDED. 
          THEY ARE A GREAT EXAMPLE OF WHAT THAT SHOULD LOOK LIKE. 
          AND WHAT WOULD LEAD A PUBLIC ART PLAN. 
          PUBLIC ART IS SOMETHING THAT% REALLY BRINGS THE ARTS TO THE VISITOR AND CREATES TOUCH POINTS. 
          AND IF YOU CAN BUILD OUT PIPE FOOT TRAFFIC AREAS, AREAS IN ORCHARD PARK. NOW YOU ARE CREATING SOME OF THESE VISUAL CUES AND WE ALSO KNOW WE HAVE AN ARTS COMMUNITY LET'S CONTINUE THAT AND GIVE THEM A TRUE RESOURCE AND FUNDING TO GET THE PUBLIC ART PROJECTS FUNDED. 
          >> ONE FINAL POINT, MAYBE A SOUTHERN ROCK EVENT. 
          THIS IS SOMETHING WE THINK IS LONGER TERM AND MAYBE IT'S NOT JUST SOUTHERN ROCK. SOME TYPE OF HALL OF FAME MUSEUM THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE A FULL THEATER. 
          YOU HAVE THE CHALLENGE OF DEALING WITH AMPHITHEATERS AND WE NEED TO THINK MORE LIKE A FESTIVAL GROUND AND HOW THAT COULD BE BUILT THAT WOULD BE FOCUSED ON THE PROGRAMMING. 
          SO THE GUIDING DEVELOPMENT PIECE, WE KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A GOAL. OF COURSE, WE KNOW WE NEED MORE HOUSING AN OFFICE THAT IS THE GOAL. 
          BUT FOR THE VISITING INDUSTRY PERSPECTIVE, WE SEE THE 
          [00:35:02]
IMPORTANCE OF INCLUDING ENTERTAINMENT, EXPERIENTIAL COMPONENTS WITH THE REAL ESTATE IT'S IMPORTANT WE KNOW WHERE RETAIL LIVES TODAY. MORE DEVELOPMENT ARE LOOKING FOR ANCHORS AS OPPOSED TO SOME OTHER FAST FOOD CHAIN. 
          WHAT WE ARE SEEING NATIONALLY IS SYNERGY TO THE TOP LEFT THAT'S A MOVIE THEATER. DAVE AND BUSTERS. 
          CHICKEN AND PICKLE. THAT IS A TOP GOLF OR PICKLE BALL. YOU GET YOUR OWN PICKLE BALL COURT. YOU GET TWO HOURS. 
          ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT AND BOTTOM LEFT, THIS IS A SHUFFLEBOARD. 
          SOME OF THESE INTERACTIVE IDEAS, MAY BE FIVE OF THESE FIVE YEARS AGO. AND NOW EVERYONE IS TRYING TO CREATE THE NEXT BIG THING. HOW CAN WE INSPIRE THEM TO CONTACT THESE FOLKS. THEY ARE VERY INTERESTED IN THIS DEMOGRAPHIC AS I'VE MENTIONED. THIS IS WHERE THEY WANT TO DEVELOPMENT. THIS RESEMBLED NASHVILLE'S GROWTH. ALSO AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD A CONFERENCE CENTER THAT IS SOMETHING THEY BUILD WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITIES THAT THEY ARE IN. 
          >> AND THEN DINING. THIS WAS ONE OF THE NUMBER-ONE NEEDS. THEY DON'T HAVE UNIQUE PLACES TO GO. THESE ARE THE TRENDS WE SEE IN THE INDUSTRY. MORE COLOR ON THIS. 
          BREWERIES. THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAYBE BRING IN A SUCCESSFUL BREWERY FROM OTHER COUNTY. 
          THEY WANT TO EXPAND AND EXPAND THEIR BUSINESS AND TURN IT INTO MORE OF AN ATTRACTION AND THEY RUN OUT ON THEIR LEASE AND THE CITY AND COUNTY IS WILLING TO HELP THEM. 
          WHERE DO WE BRING IN SOME OF THE LARGER BREWERIES. 
          THE STUBBLE SAYS EVENT SPACE. THIS IS AN ASSET FOR EVERYBODY. 
          FOOD HALLS. ONE LOCATION FOR DIFFERENT TENANTS WHETHER IT IS FOOD TRUCKS OR OTHER RESTAURANTS. 
          >> IN SHORT, GETTING THESE INTO TOWN IS LESS ABOUT INCENTIVIZE AND THROW MONEY THEIR WAY IT IS ABOUT WORKING WITH DEVELOPERS WHO ARE COMING IN AND SHOWING THEM THIS VISION OF WHAT WE ARE THINKING ABOUT. IN THE REPORT WE TALK ABOUT MODEST INCENTIVES THAT GET YOU THE BIG WIN'S AND WHETHER IT IS A MAN DONATION, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THERE'S POLICIES THAT WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT LIKE AUTHENTIC, LOCAL CHARACTER PROTECTION. SO POLICIES THAT GIVE SPECIFIC HE'S ABOUT THE ONLY WON THIS MANY FAST FOOD CHAINS, THERE'S LANGUAGE ABOUT ANY BUSINESS WITH MORE THAN EIGHT LOCATIONS WE WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE IT. SOMETIMES SPECIFICS ABOUT HOW YOUR BUILDING SHOULD LOOK. THERE'S REQUIREMENTS ABOUT HAVING AN ENTERTAINMENT ANCHOR. SOME OF THAT LANGUAGE OR TERMS ARE SOMETHING WE RECOMMEND GOING FORWARD GETTING THESE BUSINESSES THAT WE THINK WE NEED. LONG TERM WE ARE LOOKING AT WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT. WHETHER AT THE PARK, THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A POSSIBLE LOCATION. 
          THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE DEMAND. A WATERFRONT ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT. THAT INCLUDES A RIVER WALK, WATER ACTIVITIES AND ACCESS TO THE WATER WITH THE KAYAK OR CANOE. UNIQUE RESTAURANTS, SPLASH PADS. 
          KIDS ACTIVITIES AS WELL. UNIQUE ALSO OFFERING INCLUDED THEIR. CONDOS AND RESIDENTIAL, MAY BE A 
          [00:40:01]
SMALL PERFORMANCE PLACE. AGAIN, NOT A MASSIVE DEVELOPMENT, BUT A SMALLER TYPE PERFORMANCE VENUE THAT THEY COULD ALSO PROGRAMMING. THIS IS A TEN YEAR PROJECT, BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT REAL ESTATE DEVELOPERS, IF IT WERE BUILT TODAY, THE INTEREST IS THERE TO GET SOMETHING STARTED TOMORROW. WITH THAT AND COMING IN-AND-OUT THAT WILL LINK OVER TO THE ST. JOHNS COUNTY, AND MANY VEHICLES PER DAY. THIS WOULD BE THE ANCHOR FOR THE 
          WHOLE COUNTY. >> TOURISM PROMOTION, MARKETING THE WHOLE DESTINATION. I WILL LET HIM TALK ABOUT THIS. 
          >> THANK YOU, TYLER. WE REVIEWED CURRENT EFFORTS AND USED A 360 APPROACH TO PROVIDE A MARKETING STRATEGY OVER THE NEXT 5-10 YEARS. OUR STRATEGY GIVES EACH YEAR A MILESTONE AND A FULL REPORT AND WE TRIED TO MAKE IT SCALABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THE GROWING AMOUNT OF INVENTORY AND ATTRACTIONS AND THINGS TO DO THAT MIGHT BE COMING ONLINE IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS. OUR OVERALL STRATEGY, IS NOT JUST ABOUT ACHIEVING THE END GOAL OF GENERATING MORE SUSTAINABLE TOURISM BOATBUILDING A SELF-SUFFICIENT MARKETING PROGRAM THAT IS LESS DEPENDENT ON VARIABLES AND MITIGATES RISK FROM FUTURE CHANGES AND EXTERNAL MARKET DEMANDS. 
          IN THE NEAR TERM, LIKE WE HAVE RECOMMENDATIONS HERE AND CONFIGURING THE DEPARTMENT AND PRIORITIZING MORE UPSCALE DEVELOPMENT, AND OVER THE NEXT WHO THEY ARE TARGETING RIGHT NOW, WE FEEL LIKE IN THE NEXT 2-3 YEARS, YOUR TWO HOUR DRIVE RADIUS WILL BE YOUR BEST TARGET MARKET THAT YOU CAN INCREASE MARKET AND ADVERTISING. THERE IS A SUSTAINABLE MARKET WITHIN A TWO HOUR DRIVE THAT A LOT OF THE ADVERTISING AND MARKETING DOES NOT LEAVE THAT RADIUS. 
          WE HAVE, AND THE FULL PLAN, MORE FOCUS ON BUILDING OUT MORE WEBSITE CONTENT. GATHERING MORE FOR EACH TRAFFIC FROM SEARCH ENGINES AND ALSO, CREATING A VAST NETWORK OF CONTEXT IN YOUR E-MAIL DATABASE, ONE THING WE TALKED ABOUT WITH MITIGATING RISK FROM CHANGES IN THE LAND, WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND BUILDING A LARGE E-MAIL AND PHONE NUMBER DATABASE OF POTENTIAL VISITORS OR CURRENT VISITORS FROM THE TWO HOUR DRIVE RADIUS, SO YOU ARE ABLE TO MARKET TO THEM THROUGH E-MAIL AND TEXT MESSAGE. THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS TO DO AND CONTROL YOUR OWN DESTINY WITH DATABASE. 
          THAT WILL ALSO INCREASE ENGAGEMENT ON THE WEBSITE AND PUT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR THE FUTURE, WHEN YOU ARE STARTING TO BUILD THAT DATABASE AND MAINTAIN THAT AS ONE OF YOUR PRIMARY MARKETING SOURCES. AND THEN, AS WE HEAD INTO -- GO TO THE NEXT LINE. AS WE HEAD INTO 2025-2026, OR 6 YEARS FROM NOW, WE WILL WANT TO TAKE A LOOK AT OUR BRAND IDENTITY, AND WORK TOWARDS A NEW IDENTITY. 
          THERE WILL BE NEW THINGS TO DO. NEW ATTRACTIONS THAT WE WILL WANT TO REVISE AND REVAMP THE BRAND TO FIT THAT NEW DIRECTION. 
          WE TOOK THE SURVEY OF SOME OF THE STAKEHOLDERS IN THE COUNTY 
          [00:45:01]
AND ASK THEM THEIR OPINION ON THE LOGO AND THE BRAND AND HOW THAT FITS MOVING INTO THE FUTURE , MANY OF THEM, LIKE THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE LOGO, AND WHAT THAT REPRESENTED, THE TOP PORTION OF THE LOGO, THEY DID NOT FEEL LIKE THAT REFLECTED WHERE THE FUTURE WAS FOR CLAY COUNTY. 
          YOU HAVE A LOT OF DIRECT COMPETITORS IN THE MARKET NEARBY , THERE IS GAINESVILLE, SOME OF THE OTHER COUNTIES THEY REALLY FOCUS ON ECOTOURISM AND OUTDOOR TOURISM, SO MOVING IN THAT DIRECTION YOU WILL SET YOURSELF APART FROM THE COUNTIES NEARBY AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE DIFFERENTIATING YOURSELF. 
          WE FOUND THERE WAS SOME CONFLICTING MESSAGES AND TAGLINES OUT THERE THAT WE WANT TO CENTRALIZE THAT IN THE FUTURE VISION AND WE RECOMMEND IN THE NEXT 3-5 YEARS TO UPDATE THE BRANDING AND HAVE IT MORE IN LINE WITH THE VISION FOR THE 
          FUTURE. >> 
          >> SEVEN PRIMARY AREAS OF FOCUS IT IS A BIG LIST, A MULTIPLE TO DO LIST. WE WANT TO KEEP SIGHT OF THE MILESTONES. THIS IS WHERE WE WANT TO BE IN 5515 YEARS. THE NUMBERS WE HAVE A. 
          , WHERE WE ARE WITH AVERAGE DAILY RATE, THE HOTEL OCCUPANCY WHICH IS HIGH TODAY. WE WILL GET MORE HOTELS HERE. 
          WE KNOW WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT RETAIL DINING AND SPENDING GOING ON OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY. AND THEN IN OUR COUNTY SURVEY WE SCORED HIGH FORCE FULFILLING OUR POTENTIAL. 
          AS WE GROW, AND INCREASED DEMAND AND HAVE MORE VISITATION COMING IN. WE WILL CREATE MORE DEMAND FOR HOTEL ROOMS AND MORE DEVELOPERS WILL LOOK TO BUILD HERE. 
          THE GOAL IS TO GROW, WE ARE NOT ONLY INCREASING DEMAND BUT WE ARE GETTING BETTER HOTELS LIKE SELECT SERVICE AND MAYBE EVEN A FULL SERVICE. WE WANT TO CONTINUE THE HIGH HOTEL OCCUPANCY AND WE THINK WE CAN DO THAT WITH THE DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES WE WILL INVEST IN. WE WILL HAVE MORE SATISFACTION FROM RESIDENTS. MAYBE THIS WILL GROW TO A FOUR. 
          TEN YEARS FROM NOW, BASICALLY, IF YOU DO THE MATH WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A 50% INCREASE IN ADDITION TO THE SPENDING AND IN 2032A1 100% INCREASE IN HOTEL REVENUE. BY ITSELF THE GROWTH GOING ON WE KNOW WE HAVE INCREASE BUT IT'S OPTIMISTIC. 
          WE BELIEVE IT IS DOABLE IF WE THINK ABOUT THINKS LIKE A SPORTS FACILITY OR IF WE THINK ABOUT DOING A SOUTHERN ROCK FESTIVAL THAT DOES 5,000 ROOM NIGHTS. OR IF WE BUILD THE OUTDOOR ADVENTURES SCHEME. ALL OF THIS FACTORS INTO REACHABLE REACHABLE TARGETS FOR IN THE REPORT WE HAVE DIFFERENT CALLOUTS OF PARTNERS AND WHO NEEDS TO LEAD THE IMPLEMENTATION. THOUGH REPORT, THIS IS DIFFERENT PARTNERS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. 
          DEVELOPERS, THE ARTIST WE HAVE. THERE IS A ROLE FOR ALL OF THEM. 
          THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. THOSE ARE THE IDEAS WE ARE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. 
          >> MY QUESTION I GUESS, WE TALKED ABOUT LOOKING AT THE PARKS THAT WE HAVE AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THOSE ALONE. 
          [00:50:05]
WAS THERE ANYTHING IN THAT REGARD? 
          WAS THAT -- >> A LITTLE BIT. 
          WE KNOW THEY ARE DOING THEIR OWN MASTER PLAN ABOUT WHAT IS NEEDED. WE DO RIGHT LANGUAGE ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND NEEDING MORE BOOTS ON THE GROUND SO THEY CAN BETTER MAINTAIN THEM. FROM THE VISITOR INDUSTRY PERSPECTIVE WE WANT TO FOCUS ON 1-3 THAT WILL BECOME GO TO DESTINATIONS. IT'S WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT YESTERDAY. A CONSERVATION PLACE FOR VISITORS TO GO TO. TRAILS, WE KNOW THAT IS PLANNED AS PART OF THE GREENWAY. AND INCREASING THAT AND GETTING TWO MORE PARKS AND URBAN AREAS, THAT IS A BIG POINT OF EMPHASIS 
          FOR THE REPORT TOO. >> INCORPORATING SOME OF YOUR IDEAS, THAT IS GOOD I GUESS. AS FAR AS A SMALLER OUTLOOK AND 
          GOING FROM THERE? >> SOME OF THE IDEAS, LIKE A TRAIL YOU CAN PUT IN THE FOREST, USING STRUCTURES, A LOT OF PARKS WE HAVE WORKED WITH ARE DOING A. YOU CAN MOVE THIS PARK TO PARK THAT IS THOUGH IDEA. THAT IS SOME OF THE THINGS WE 
          WRITE ABOUT AS WELL. >> AS FAR AS WHERE IN THE COUNTY 
          >> WE HAVE TO WORK WITH HIGH SCHOOL GYM SPIRIT IN THE NEAR-TERM YOU CAN THINK OF USING TENNIS COURTS BETTER OUTDOORS TO DO THAT. BUT AS FAR AS SUPPORTING COMMUNITY DEMAND YOU NEED AN INDOOR FACILITY. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING WE SEE WITH THE FIELD HOUSES THAT ARE BEING BUILT. YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPACE WHERE YOU 
          CAN DO DIFFERENT LEAKS. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. 
          I AM VARIABLES VERY EXCITED. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE PRESENTATION. WHENEVER I LOOK AT A FUTURE FOCUS I LOOK AT VERSATILITY. I'M GLAD TO SEE THE CONCERT VENUE. ONE DAY HE A JAZZ CONCERT AND THE NEXT NIGHT ROCK OR A HEAVY METAL BAND OR WHATEVER. 
          ONE THING I DON'T SEE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHY IS A CONVENTION CENTER. THEY ARE REALLY HARD TO FIND. 
          IF YOU'RE RUNNING A CONVENTION YOU HAVE TO BOOK IT TWO YEARS OUT. THERE IS A HIERARCHY -- THAT IS THE KIND OF CAMPUS I'M LOOKING FOR. 
          ONE DY IT COULD BE A FINANCIAL CONFERENCE THE NEXT DAY HEALTHCARE, YOU NAME IT, IT CAN BE ANYTHING. 
          THAT IS WHAT WILL DRIVE YOUR RESTAURANTS, YOUR HOTELS. 
          AND QUITE HONESTLY, THAT IS WHAT DRIVES ENTERTAINMENT. 
          PEOPLE WILL BRING THEIR FAMILY IF IT IS A GOOD VENUE. 
          WHAT DO I DO WITH THE FAMILY DURING THE DAY? 
          DID WE LOOK AT THAT? >> I HEARD HIM SAY THAT. 
          >> WE DID NOT MAKE IT A STRONG POINT OF EMPHASIS. 
          WE WILL BE MONITORING A. I THINK THERE IS A DEMAND REGIONALLY TO ADD IT TO THE JACKSONVILLE AREA. 
          WE DON'T THINK THE MALLS ARE ADVANTAGEOUS. 
          WHEN WE DO THIS WE LOOK FOR THE PERFECT LOCATION. 
          WITH THAT SAID, MAYBE THIS COULD WORK OUT FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IF THIS RESORT WERE TO COME TO TOWN, THIS AREA LACKS A RESORT CONFERENCE SPACE. 
          IN ADDITION TO THE ENTERTAINMENT AND ATTRACTIONS, AND ALSO OTHER 
          [00:55:07]
THINGS AND THE COUNTY. THAT IS THE ULTIMATE PRODUCT. 
          THAT IS WHERE THE PRIVATE SECTOR LEAD. 
          THE CONVENTION CENTER IS PUBLIC. THEY THOUGHT THE CONFERENCE ANSWER WOULD BE $10 MILLION AND IT IS $7 MILLION. 
          SO THAT IS THE IDEA AND OPTION NUMBER ONE. 
          THIS IS DIFFERENT POSSIBILITIES FOR THIS. 
          >> NO QUESTION, A GREAT JOB BY YOUR TEAM, TYLER WENT THROUGH, AND MORE IN DEPTH IN A NUMBER OF VARIOUS. 
          I THINK IT SPEAKS VOLUMES, JUST THE STUDY IN ITS TOTAL. 
          IT DOES GIVE US A ROADMAP TO DETERMINE WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE WILL GO. WHEN I ASKED THE COUNCIL MEMBERS YESTERDAY, TO DO PRIORITIES OF WHAT THEY HAVE LAID OUT SO OUR NEXT MEETING, WE WILL BE ABLE TO DISCUSS AND ANALYZE THAT AND MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS GIVEN THE FACT WE ALL KNOW WHERE WE ARE IN TERMS OF INVESTMENT POSSIBILITIES AND WHAT'S BEING BUILT. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WERE NOT MENTIONED, THE TOURISM ATTRACTION. 
          CERTAINLY WILL BE OUTDOORS. WE KNOW THAT. 
          SO ONCE THEY COME BACK WITH THOSE, AND WE AS A GROUP SELECT THOSE PRIORITIES, WE WILL MAKE THAT DETERMINATION. 
          THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS THEY HAVE IDENTIFIED IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO THINK WE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD IN TERMS OF BIKE TRAILS AND THINGS THAT ARE NOT THERE. 
          AT THE NEXT MEETING IN NOVEMBER WE SHOULD HAVE SOME OF THAT AVAILABLE FOR THE BOARD. THE GROUP DID A GREAT JOB, AND THERE IS A LOT OF STUFF THERE. WE SAW MOST OF IT YESTERDAY. 
          GREAT JOB TYLER AND THE REST OF YOUR CREW. 
          >> >> WE HAVE DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE STUDY THAT IS GREAT. ONE THING IT DOES IS FRAME OUT TERMS THAT ARE NEAR. WE CAN START LOOKING AT A LOT OF IDEAS LIKE THE INDOOR SPORTS FACILITY WILL TAKE SOME TIME. 
          IT WILL BE ABOUT A PHASED APPROACH. 
          >> I HAVE ONE COMMENT. AT A MEETING WITH KIMBERLY TO GO OVER SOME OF THIS. BUT I KEEP HARPING THE IDEA OF WHAT IS A 10,000-FOOT VIEW WHAT WE NEED TOURISM IN CLAY COUNTY. 
          BILLS ARE THE QUESTIONS THAT I GET. 
          KIMBERLY AT A GREAT RESPONSE. COULD YOU REPEAT THAT FOR US 
          PLEASE. >> THE VALUE OF TOURISM IS REALLY ABOUT US HAVING MORE INVITE VISITORS. 
          WE DELIVER A GREAT EXPERIENCE, AND THE VISITORS ARE INVESTING IN OUR COMMUNITY, SO RESIDENTS DON'T HAVE TO INVEST AS MUCH AND THOSE VISITORS ARE NOT UTILIZING THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT THEY 
          HAVE INVESTED IN EVERY DAY. >> THIS IS CREATING A COMMUNITY WHERE THEY HAVE RESTAURANTS AND THEY HAVE PLACES TO GO, THAT IS WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. FUND THIS AND GET IT OFF OF THE 
          GROUND. >> THIS BRINGS US TO APPROVAL OF 
          [APPROVAL OF MINUTES]
MINUTES. LET'S GO THROUGH SOME OF THIS BEFORE WE GET TWO TIMES EARNINGS. 
          >> MOVE APPROVAL OF THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MINUTES OF 
          SEPTEMBER -- WHATEVER IT IS. >> FINANCE AND AUDIT MINUTES AS 
          WELL. >> SECOND.

ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. IT CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 
          THAT LEAD US TO PUBLIC COMMENT. SO 51 CARD FROM PAT. 
          THIS IS OUR BEST RECORD OPPORTUNITY TO TALK TO US ABOUT 
          ANYTHING FOR 3 MINUTES. >> THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS. 
          I WILL BE A LITTLE EASIER THAN I WAS LAST TIME. 
          MY NAME IS BADLY. I LIVE ON FLEMING ISLAND I MOVED THERE WHEN THERE WAS ONE TRAFFIC LIGHT BETWEEN DOCTORS LAKE AND GREEN CO SPRINGS, TODAY THERE TWO MONTHS AGO I ATTENDED A WORKSHOP. , IN THIS BUILDING ABOUT THE FUTURE OF CLAY COUNTY. WE BROKE UP INTO FOUR GROUPS AND WE TALKED ABOUT ZONING THAT WOULD AFFECT THE AREA. 
          AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR COUNTY. 
          I WAS THE ONLY ONE IN OUR GROUP IN THE WORKSHOP THAT WAS NOT A DEVELOPER, BUILDER OR REPRESENTING A DEVELOPER OR BUILDER. THAT SHOCKED ME. 
          THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT ATTENDED THE MEETING WAS THE PEOPLE STOOD TO BENEFIT FINANCIALLY FROM THE ZONING CHANGE THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO CREATE APARTMENT BUILDINGS IN HOMES SOUTH OF GREENVILLE. ELSE IF YOU ARE A DEVELOPER, WE HAVE CREATED A HUGE EXEMPTION FOR YOU. 
          IT IS CALLED THE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT. 
          IF YOU WANT TO GET AROUND ZONING BASICALLY PUT TOGETHER BY THE PEOPLE LIVE IN THIS COUNTY ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS COME TO THIS ROOM AND CONVINCE THREE OF YOU THAT IT WILL BE GOOD FOR CLAY COUNTY. AND WHETHER YOU IGNORE THE ZONING RULES THAT EVERYONE HAS TO FOLLOW, THIS PUD COULD BE 100 DWELLINGS PER 10 ACRES. THE CITIZENS THAT RELY ON YOU TO SPEAK FOR THEM WILL NOT MAKE A NICKEL FROM THE EXPLOSIONS OF HOMES AND SHOPPING CENTERS THE DEVELOPERS ARE SO WILLING TO BUILD. VOTERS ONLY GET STUCK IN THE TRAFFIC JAM EVERYONE IS EVERYONE TRIES TO CROSS THE BRIDGE. 
          FOR SERIOUS BEEN A PARKING LOT FOR 30 YEARS. 
          MOST DO NOT EVEN LIVE IN CLAY. EAGLE HARBOR WHICH IS A GORGEOUS DEVELOPMENT WAS ABOUT BY A COMPANY FROM RICHMOND VIRGINIA. 
          IN MAY A BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY BUT NO ONE ENRICHMENT HAS TO DRIVE DOWN 17 BETWEEN 3-6:00 P.M. ANKLE BY THE DOG TRACK. 
          I UNDERSTAND GROWTH IS INEVITABLE. 
          BUT LET'S DO THIS ON OUR TERMS NOT THE TERMS OF A DEVELOPER THAT DOES NOT EVEN LIVE HERE. LET'S FORCE THEM TO MAKE IT BETTER NOT JUST BUILDER. WHAT ABOUT A BIKE TRACK FOR EVERY TEN HOUSES HE BUILD. WHAT ABOUT ACQUIRING DEVELOPERS WITH 50 ACRES, TO PUT 25 INTO GREEN SPACE. 
          WHAT ABOUT REQUIRING THEM TO BUILD A TREATMENT PLAN AND IN EACH PLANNED NEIGHBORHOOD. HOW ABOUT EXEMPTING RESIDENTS FROM HAVING TO PAY A TOLL TO CROSS THE BRIDGE. 
          BASICALLY,. >> DOES ANYONE ELSE WANT TO 
          [CONSENT AGENDA]
ADDRESS THE BOARD? WE WILL CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. 
          THIS BRINGS US TO THE CONSENT AGENDA. 
          DOES ANYONE WANT TO PULL ANYTHING FROM THE CONSENT 
          AGENDA. >> I WILL TAKE A MOTION.

          I HOPE YOU CHECK YOUR RAINCOAT AT THE DOOR.

          THE HANDOUT THAT YOU SHOULD HAVE THE FIRST PAGE IS EXHIBIT A. 
          REVENUES THAT ARE CALCULATED ON THE SPOT. 
          IT TELLS ME HOW MUCH MONEY WE HAVE LEFT. 
          [01:05:06]
THIS IS A CHANGE IN THE AQUARIUS PROJECT WHERE WE ARE SHIFTING BUDGETS. THIS WAY WE CAN KEEP GOING MORE AGGRESSIVELY. AND EXHIBIT B, THESE TIED TO THE BONDED ROAD PROJECTS. THIS IS WHERE WE ARE INTRODUCING MOBILITY FEE INTO THE PROJECTS TO KEEP THAT GOING AND GET THE PROJECT THAT WE WANT. IT IS BROKEN DOWN, AND HOW WE WILL BE INTRODUCING MOBILITY FEES INTO EACH PROJECT OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS. AND EXHIBIT C IS THE BONDED ROAD PROJECT. AND BECAUSE I LIKE TO KEEP THEM BLUE, EVERY PROJECT WAS CHANGED. SO THIS REALLOCATE THE BUDGET TO PROVIDE WHAT WE BELIEVE CONTRACTUALLY WE WILL NEED TO GO AHEAD WITH THE PROJECTS. WE WILL DO IT NEXT MONTH WHEN I SEE YOU AGAIN I WILL CHANGE THE CURRENT BUDGET FOR 21-22, TO SEE WHAT WAS SPENT. UP TOP IS THE REVENUE SIDE OF THINGS. THAT WILL BE ADJUSTED TOO. 
          I KNOW HOW 2021 ENDED. AND OF COURSE, MOBILITY FIELDS -- MOBILITY FEES. AND EXHIBIT D, WE ARE BACK TO AQUARIUS. TWO PIECES, AND WE ARE USING BOTH, IF THERE'S UTILITY WORK BEING DONE, AND IF THEY ARE DOING OTHER STUFF OTHER THAN UTILITIES, AND WE DEDUCT FROM THAT BUCKET TOO. JUST A WAY TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT. 
          THIS IS A WAY TO KEEP BUSY AND GET THE ROADS BUILT.

          >> WE ALREADY HAVE $2 MILLION. >> ARE THEY MANAGING THAT PART 
          OR WE ARE? >> WE ARE.

          THESE ARE THE THREE BEING BROUGHT TO YOU. 
          THEY ARE FUNDED THROUGH THE PROGRAM AND WHAT WE ARE ASKING APPROVAL OF IS THE PURCHASE SALES AGREEMENT AS WELL AS THE RESTRICTIONS INCLUDED AS WELL AS AUTHORIZATION FOR THE COUNTY

          >> OKAY, ANY QUESTIONS SO FAR? >> I WAS JUST INTRIGUED NO ONE 
          WAS NEAR WATER. >> ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE COUNTRY CLUB ONE. WE ARE WORKING WITH THE HOMEOWNER COOLS INSISTENT ON BEING PART OF THE PROGRAM AND WE'VE HAD TO WORK WITH THE COUNTRY CLUB IN ORDER TO ALLEVIATE THE NEED FOR THE COUNTY TO TAKE IT OVER.

          DID NOT HAVE. >> THIS ONE IS REALLY BAD. 
          IT WAS ANKLE DEEP. >> THERE IS AN AREA, THAT IS REALLY LOW, AND DURING IRMA IT HAD 8 FEET OF WATER. 
          IT WAS A REVELATION TO SEE THERE WAS A HOME FLOODED OUT BY IRMA AT A COUNTRY CLUB. BUT THERE ARE SOME LOW AREAS. 
          >> HAVE THEY DONE ANYTHING WITH THE SUBSTATION YET? 
          >> DO YOU THINK THEY WILL ACCEPT THIS ONE? WE MADE IT CLEAR, WE WERE NOT TAKING IT ON IF WE HAD TO PAY 
          THE ASSESSMENTS. >> YOU NEED TO GET IT APPROVED BEFORE YOU MAKE THE OFFER. IT HAS BEEN VETTED PRETTY WELL. 
          I FEEL CONFIDENT, THERE WON'T BE ANY PUSHBACK. 
          >> AND FOR THE PUBLIC THIS IS A PROGRAM WHERE WE FIND HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN FLOODED NUMEROUS TIMES -- THEY CAN NEVER BE BUILT ON AGAIN AFTER WE BUY THEM AND REMOVE THEM. 
          SO IN THE LONG RUN IT SAVES ON INSURANCE AND A LOT OF OTHER 
          THINGS. >> THE TERM IS PERPETUITY. 
          BUT I DO WANT TO ASK A QUESTION GOING FORWARD. 
          THERE MAY BE RECOVERY IF WE CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT. 
          THE RULE IS THEY CAN'T TAKE THE FRONT DOOR OFF IT HAS TO BE INTACT WITH THE DWELLING. AND WE WERE TOLD WHAT THOSE VALUES COULD BE. AND THE DEMO COMPANY WOULD 
          REIMBURSE US. >> I'M NOT SURE BUT I CAN SAY A FEW OF THEM ALREADY CLOSE. THE PEOPLE NEVER MOVE BACK INTO THEM, THEY ARE IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE.

          TALKING ABOUT. >> THEY ARE TRYING TO TURN IT FOR THIS. OBVIOUSLY TO ME THAT WOULD BE AN AVOIDANCE. BUT ONE OF THE BEST THINGS TO DO, IF YOU LOOK TO THE BOTTOM LOVE THERE IS A SITE. 
          WERE WORKING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS AS FAR AS WHAT DO WE HAVE TO BUY TO MAKE THIS ALIGNMENT CORRECT. 
          THERE MAY BE SOME ABANDONMENT. THERE IS CURRENTLY A UTILITY CORRIDOR. WE HAVE BEEN TALKING WITH CLAY ELECTRIC. WE WANT TO MAINTAIN THAT, OR DO A RELOCATION. THEY HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE OF IT. 
          THIS IS FOR CONSIDERATION RIGHT NOW. 
          AND IF WE DO ABANDON HOW MUCH DO WE ABANDON. 
          >> HOW LONG IS A? >> I DON'T WANT TO TAKE A GUESS. 
          >> WE REMOVED THE ASPHALT. >> POTENTIAL TO WORK WITH THE DISTRICT FOR THE AREA WE ARE ADDING WHICH IS THE REALIGNMENT. 
          AND TO GET CREDIT FOR THAT AND REDUCE OUR MITIGATION. 
          >> >> THE SINGLE-STORY APARTMENTS THEY TALKED ABOUT AVENEL PARK WHERE IS THAT? 
          >> THEIR PROPERTIES THE CLEAR PROPERTY ON THE NORTH SIDE. 
          MAYBE A THIRD OF THAT. THE OTHER TWO THIRDS IS THE RESIDENTIAL AREA AND THE PARK WOULD BE IN THE CENTER AREA, IF 
          YOU WOULD. >> THEY WON'T USE THEM WROTE IT 
          ALL? >> KNOW THEY HAD BOTH ENTRANCES COMING OFF OF THE TOOL NINE. AND SOME OF THE ORIGINAL DISCUSSIONS THEY WOULD HAVE AN ENTRANCE OFF OF THAT SECTION BUT 
          THEY TOOK IT OUT. >> YEAH THEY REQUESTED THAT SO PEOPLE COULD GO TO WINN-DIXIE THAT WAY. 
          >> >> THEY PROVIDED THE INFORMATION 
          AND MADE THE ADJUSTMENTS. >> IT WAS PARKING, EXCUSE ME, I'M SORRY PICKED AS THEY SAID THEY WOULD COME DOWN THIS ROAD 
          AND PARK AT THE PARK. >> THE PARKING WOULD BE ON THE NORTH SIDE. THE POND WOULD BE TO THE WEST OF THE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. AND IT'S TOO THE NORTH SIDE OF THE COMMERCIAL. THEY WOULD COME DOWN TOOL NINE, TURN AND GO THROUGH THE AREA TO GET TO THEIR. 
          >> YES, MA'AM. >> THANK YOU. 
          [9.  Land Development Code Update]
          >> OKAY NUMBER NINE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE UPDATE. 
          >> HELLO GOOD EVENING. I'M WITH W G.I. 
          WE ARE HERE TO LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REVISIONS. 
          JUST LOOKING AT OUR TIMELINE WE ARE HALFWAY THROUGH THE PROJECT 
          [01:30:01]
WE ARE STILL ON TRACK FOR COMPLETION AND ADOPTION OF BOTH OF THOSE BY JULY. WE HAD TO PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT SECTIONS YESTERDAY AND THIS AFTERNOON. 
          YESTERDAY'S SECTION WAS GEARED TOWARD CITIZEN STAKEHOLDERS AND THIS AFTERNOON THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY THIS IS WHERE WE PRESENTED EXAMPLES OF AREA CHARACTERISTICS OF THE COUNTY AND INFORMATION AND FEEDBACK ON WHAT DEVELOPMENT THEY FEEL IS MOST APPROPRIATE FOR THOSE AREAS. 
          WE ARE ASKING QUESTIONS TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE NEED TO FOCUS GROWTH AND WHAT IT NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE THIS WILL BE ON THE PROJECT WEBSITE, THAT WILL BE READILY AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE. 
          >> SO THIS IS WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW. 
          THIS IS THE CURRENT CHAPTERS THAT WE HAVE BASED ON THE PROPOSED ARTICLE. SO STARTING WITH THIS WILL BE CONSOLIDATION AND THE MASTER PLANS AND TRYING TO MAKING IT OVERALL USER-FRIENDLY AND CONSOLIDATING A LOT OF THIS REDUNDANT TEXT. AND CHAPTER EIGHT WE LOOKED AT SIMPLIFYING THE COLD LANGUAGE. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS TO VISUALIZE SOME OF THE SECTIONS THAT DISCUSS HOW TO ADDRESS DISTRICT MAPPING AREAS AND WE ARE INCLUDING HYPERLINKS TO THE COUNTY ZONING MAP. AND WE'VE ALSO WENT AHEAD AND PUT INTO A TABLE ALL OF THE DISTRICTS AND COMMERCIAL AND PROVIDED THE CORRESPONDING SECTIONS THAT WILL LINK DIRECTLY TO THOSE. GETTING INTO CHAPTER B. 
          THIS IS A HEFTY SECTION. WHAT WE HAVE DONE SO FAR AS CLARIFY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR GENERAL DISTRICTS AND YOUR COMMUNITY DISTRICTS. WE HAVE ADDED A LOT OF LANGUAGE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND WE ARE REFERENCING CHAPTER D WHICH WE WILL GET INTO LATER WHICH IS DISCUSSING OUR ZONING DISTRICT AND REGULATIONS AND THAT WILL BREAK DOWN WHAT APPLIES TO EACH. WE HAVE ALSO FOUND A LITTLE INCONSISTENCY IN THE WAY THE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL LAND CATEGORY WAS WRITTEN. WE HAVE MADE THAT CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS WELL AS THE FUTURE LAND USE DISTRICTS AND THAT TABLE WILL BE SHOWN ON THE COUNTY'S WEBSITE WHEN IT IS COMPLETE. GETTING INTO CHAPTER SEE. 
          THIS IS A SHORTER CHAPTER. WE JUST HAD MINOR CHANGES. 
          WE HAVE ADDED ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE TO CLARIFY THE FOUR TYPES OF NONCONFORMITIES. WE HAVE BLOCKED STRUCTURES AND SO FORTH. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE TO CLARIFY RIGHTS AND ADDED A METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE THAT REPLACEMENT VALUE. SO THIS IS CHAPTER D AS I MENTIONED BEFORE. SO WE ARE FOCUSING ON SHOWING EACH DISTRICT WHAT THE SETBACKS AND NIGHTS ARE. 
          WE HAVE COMBINED SIMILAR PURPOSE AND INTENT SECTION WE HAVE LOOK BAD REORGANIZING THE DISTRICTS BASED ON THEIR CONSISTENCY AND WE HAVE REORGANIZED AND CONSOLIDATED A LOT OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT AND USES BECAUSE AS IT EXISTS, A LOT OF THAT IS IN PARAGRAPH FORMAT. IT CAN BE TRICKY TO READ THROUGH AND UNDERSTAND JUST TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE DON'T MISS THINGS AS THEY'RE GOING THROUGH AND IT'S IN ONE PLACE. 
          AND AGAIN, THOSE WHO ARE FAMILIAR WITH ARTICLE SEVEN AND AT THE CHANCE TO LOOK OVER IT. YOU GOT TO SEE WHAT THE TEMPLATE 
          [01:35:03]
STRUCTURE WOULD LOOK LIKE. YOU APPLIED THAT TO CHAPTER E. 
          WE HAVE THE REGULATIONS TEMPLATE WHICH WILL HAVE A DESCRIPTION OF THE USE FOLLOWED BY THE LOCATION WHICH WOULD INCLUDE YOUR BUILDING PERMITS, YOUR ZONING ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS AND THEN WE HAVE YOUR LAND DEVELOPMENT AND REGULATION AND IF THERE ARE ANY SPECIFIC USE REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS SEPARATION BETWEEN USES, FOLLOWED BY ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS AND LIGHTING. 
          IT'S ALL A ONE-STOP SHOP. >> MOVING ON TO CHAPTER F. 
          THIS IS THE MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITIES. 
          WE LOOKED AT THE MASTER PLANS AND OF CONSOLIDATED THOSE SIMILAR REQUIREMENTS SUCH AS SIGNAGE AND LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING. WE ARE DEFERRING THAT TO OTHER CHAPTERS AND ARTICLES IN THE CODE TO REDUCE THE REDUNDANCIES. 
          AS YOU KNOW WE ARE WORKING ON ARTICLE THREE AND ARTICLE SEVEN, THE REMAINDER BEING ARTICLES WORKED ON BY COUNTY STAFF, WE HAVE CLARIFIED SOME OF THOSE PROCESSES AND MOVE THEM OVER TO ARTICLE TWO. WE HAVE APPEALS AND VARIANCES. 
          PUBLIC FACILITIES, AND IN ADDITION WE PROVIDED HYPERLINKS OF THE MASTER PLAN TO THE COUNTY GIS WEBSITE. 
          >> A LOT OF THE WORK HAS BEEN CONSOLIDATION. 
          WE WILL BE BACK BEFORE YOU IN DECEMBER TO DIG INTO DETAILS AND CHANGES AS WELL AS THE PLANNING COUNCIL ON DECEMBER 9. 
          WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER OPEN HOUSE IN FEBRUARY WHERE WE CAN PRESENT SOME OF THESE CHANGES TO THE COMMUNITY, AND WE WILL BE BACK 
          IN FEBRUARY TO DO THE SAME. >> DECEMBER 6 IS THE TENTATIVE DATE FOR THE UPCOMING WORKSHOP. WE ARE GETTING E-MAILS ON PUBLIC COMMENT, LDC CHANGES. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS TONIGHT, WE ARE HERE TO ANSWER THEM. 
          >> I JUST HAVE A COMMENT. I SPOKE TO SOME INDIVIDUALS THIS AFTERNOON AND SOME WERE REPEAT ATTENDEES WHICH I THOUGHT WAS INTERESTING. BUT VERY POSITIVE COMMENTS ABOUT THE PROCESS WE ARE GOING THROUGH, SO THANK YOU. 
          >> ANYONE ELSE? >> KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. 
          WE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A LOT OF YEARS. 
          IT IS SO BIG. IT IS SOMETHING NO ONE REALLY WANTED TO TACKLE BUT THANKS TO STAFF WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS. 
          [10.  Discussion of Impact Fee Study for Fire/Rescue, Law Enforcement, Cultural and Libraries, Parks and Recreation and Government Facilities. (C. Vilarreal, Willdan Financial Services)]
          I AM EXCITED. >> THANK YOU. 
          >> OKAY, NUMBER TEN. IMPACT FEE DISCUSSION. 
          >> GOOD EVENING. AS YOU ARE WHERE WE ENGAGED IN THE FINANCIAL SERVICES TO CONDUCT IMPACT FEE STUDIES FOR US SPIRIT IN VARIOUS AREAS. THE STAFF IS HERE TO PRESENT TONIGHT AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. 
          >> SO I AM CARLOS I'M A PRINCIPAL AND I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE STUDY. I AM HERE TO GIVE YOU AN OVERVIEW OF IMPACT FEES, THE METHODOLOGIES WE USE IN THE STUDY, PRESENT TO YOU THE RESULTS AND HOW THEY COMPARE TO OTHER JURISDICTIONS. SO, FIRST OFF SO WE ARE ON THE SAME PAGE, IMPACT FEES ARE ONE TIME CHARGE IMPOSED AT THE BUILDING PERMIT STAGE. TO ALL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, SO I KNOW CURRENTLY THE MOBILITY FEES VARY BY ZONE AND OUR STUDY THEY ARE INTENDED TO BE CHARGED WITHIN THE INCORPORATED AREAS OF THE COUNTY. THE KEY THING TO KEEP IN MIND THE STUDY NEEDS TO DEMONSTRATE THE FEES WITH FUN FACILITIES 
          THAT HELP DEVELOPMENT. >> WE START BY DEMAND FOR FACILITIES IN TERMS OF PEOPLE. PEOPLE LIVE AND WORK IN THE COUNTY. WE CAN ALSO ESTIMATE THE MAN OUT TO A FUTURE PLANNING HORIZON. WE CAN THEN IDENTIFY FACILITY 
          [01:40:01]
STANDARDS, AND I WILL DISCUSS THAT MORE INTO FUTURE SIDES BUT THERE'S A WAY TO QUANTIFY DEMAND FOR FACILITIES. 
          USING THOSE STANDARDS AND OTHER PLANNING FILL COUNTY ANSWER WORKING ON WE CAN DETERMINE THE NEEDS FOR THE FACILITY AND THE COST NEEDED TO SERVE THE COUNTY GOING FORWARD. 
          SO THERE ARE CERTAIN CASES WHERE FACILITIES WILL SERVE EXISTING AND NEW DEVELOPMENT. OF FIRE STATION AND IN THESE CASES BECAUSE THEY DON'T PURELY SERVE NEW DEVELOPMENT WE HAVE TO ALLOCATE A SHARE TO SERVE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT SO NEW DEVELOPMENT IS NOT PAYING FOR EVERYTHING. 
          THE STUDY ALLOCATES THOSE COSTS. AND WE HAVE TO IDENTIFY THE FUNDING SHARED THAT CANNOT BE PAID FOR WITH THE IMPACT FEES SO ESSENTIALLY NEEDS TO BE FUNDED WITH ANY FUNDING SOURCE OTHER THAN THE IMPACT FEES AND FINALLY WE CAN'T CALCULATE THE FEE SCHEDULE BY LOCATING THE CALLS DEVELOP IT OR 1,000 SQUARE FEET 
          OF LAND USE. >> SO WHAT WERE THE CATEGORIES WE WERE LOOKING AT IN THIS STUDY. 
          WE WERE LOOKING AT GOVERNMENT JAILS CONSTITUTIONAL FACILITIES, LAW ENFORCEMENT, PARKS, AND LIBRARY. 
          SO FOR EACH ONE OF THESE CATEGORIES, THEY WOULD GO INTO A SEGREGATED ACCOUNT AND WOULD ONLY BE SPENT ON WHAT IT WAS 
          COLLECTED FOR. >> 'S NEW SLIDE SHOWS LAND USE SCENARIO. WE HAVE SEPARATED OUT THE RESIDENCE FROM THE UNINCORPORATED AREAS AND CITIES. 
          THE REASON WE DID THIS IS BECAUSE SOME COUNTY SERVICES SERVE MORE THAN JUST THE UNINCORPORATED AREA. 
          FOR EXAMPLE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FIRE SERVICE AREAS INCLUDE SOME OF THE INCORPORATED CITIES. WHEN WE DO THAT, WE NEED TO INCLUDE RESIDENTS AND WORKERS FROM THOSE JURISDICTIONS. 
          BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY WERE LOOKING AT A PLANNING HORIZON AND AS YOU CAN SEE THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF GROWTH PROJECTED IN THE COUNTY. RESIDENTS AND ALMOST 102,000 WORKERS. SO WITH THAT MANY PEOPLE MOVING IN AND WORKING FOR THE COUNTY WILL HAVE TO PROVIDE SERVICES AND FACILITIES TO HOUSE THOSE SERVICES. 
          I MENTIONED THIS EARLIER. THIS BREAKS DOWN THE APPROACHES THAT ONE COULD USE. THE FIRST APPROACH, THE EXISTING INVENTORY AND UNDER THIS BE IDEA WE CAN QUANTIFY THE CURRENT FACILITIES, AND THEN SIMPLY EXTEND THAT SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE TO NEW DEVELOPMENT AS IT OCCURS. 
          A GREAT EXAMPLE, IS PARK ACRES WEEKEND SOME OF THE TOTAL PARKS. 
          CALCULATE THE RESIDENCE, AND FOR ANY ADDITIONAL ONES WE WILL HAVE THE SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE. THE OTHER APPROACHES USING THE STUDY. THE GENERAL IDEA, IN SOME CASES WE CAN IDENTIFY THE FACILITIES AND ONE MAY BE WASTEWATER. 
          SO IN THAT SITUATION IT IS SIMPLE. 
          EVERYONE WOULD PAY THEIR SHARE OF THE FRONTLINE. 
          BUT, WE DON'T USE THAT APPROACH BECAUSE THERE ARE NOT ANY FACILITIES THAT MEET THAT CRITERIA BUT THE THIRD APPROACH IS THE SYSTEM PLAN APPROACH. THE IDEA IT IS THE ENTIRE FACILITY THAT WILL SERVE EVERYONE BOTH NEW AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AT THE PLANNING ARRANGEMENT. 
          THIS MAY BE DIFFICULT TO IDENTIFY, OR IN THE PRIOR EXAMPLE, THE NEW FACILITIES WILL SERVE EVERYONE. 
          AND WE TAKE THE VALUE OF YOUR EXISTING SYSTEM PLUS THE VALUE OF YOUR FUTURE PLANT FACILITY AND THE RESULTING STANDARD 
          CALCULATION. >> WE USE BOTH THE EXISTING INVENTORY AND THE SYSTEM PLAN APPROACH, THIS CHART GIVES YOU A GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF THE APPROACHES UNDER THE METHOD AND THE AMOUNT OF FACILITIES NEEDED PROPORTIONAL TO THE DEMAND AND IT SCALES ACCORDINGLY. UNDER THE SYSTEM PLAN APPROACH THE FACILITY STANDARDS ARE INCREASING AND WE CAN CHARGE DEVELOPMENT AT THE HIGHER LEVEL OF SERVICE. 
          BUT THEY HAVE TO PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE OF THE HIGHER LEVEL OF SERVICE. YOU CAN SEE THE SEGMENT OF THE 
          [01:45:04]
BAR LISTED AS DEFICIENCY AND THAT REPRESENTS SHARES OF THE HIGHER LEVEL OF SERVICE THAT MUST BE FUNDED OTHER THAN THE IMPACT FEES OTHERWISE YOU HAVE BEEN OVERCHARGING NEW 
          DEVELOPMENT. >> WHAT DO WE USE ON THE STUDY. 
          WE USE THE SYSTEM PLAN FOR FIRE AND RESCUE SO, HERE IS A LISTING THEY HAVE CONTEMPLATED IN THE STUDY. 
          SOME ARE SHARED BETWEEN MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS. 
          FOR EXAMPLE FIRE AND RESCUE LAW ENFORCEMENT, SIMILARLY THERE IS A PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY BETWEEN PUBLIC SAFETY AND SHERIFF'S, AND THE GOVERNMENT JAILS THEY ARE CONTEMPLATING A NEW JUDICIAL SERVICES BUILDING. FOR FIRE RESCUE B INCLUDES EIGHT NEW FIRE STATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS AT EXISTING FIRE STATION AT SPIRIT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT BEYOND THESE FACILITIES, CALCULATING FOR A FEE FOR NEW VEHICLES. 
          THIS WOULD NOT JUST BE A REPLACEMENT BUT HOUSING NEW OFFICERS AND FOUR PARKS, WE ARE USING THIS APPROACH WERE WERE ASKING THEM TO MAINTAIN THE EXISTING LEVEL OF SERVICE AND FOR LIBRARY AND CULTURED THE STUDY CONTEMPLATES A NEW LIBRARY. SO THE NEXT SLIDE SHOWS YOU THE MAXIMUM JUSTIFIED FEE SCHEDULE. THE FEE CATEGORY, CORRESPONDS WITH THE LAND USE CATEGORIES AND YOUR MOBILITY'S CASE STUDY AND THE MOBILITY STUDY AS A LAND USE MIX BECAUSE DIFFERENT NON- RESIDENTIAL AREAS WERE LOOKING AT TYPES OF FACILITIES WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT EMPLOYEES. IN THIS STUDY THERE'S A CROSSWALK THAT SHOWS THIS CORRESPONDS WITH THE MOBILITY FEE. ONE OTHER NOTE THIS IS THE MAXIMUM JUSTIFIED FEE SCHEDULE. YOUR COMMISSION COULD ADOPT SOMETHING LOWER THAN WHAT IS SHOWN HERE BUT THIS IS THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT BASED ON THE ANALYSIS. 
          >> NOW I WILL SHOW HOW THESE COMPARE TO OTHERS. 
          A FEW NOTES HERE. FIRST IS THAT I INCLUDED THIS TO SHOW WHAT THE TRANSPORTATION FEE WOULD BE. 
          THIS IS ONLY SHOWN HERE FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES. 
          THEY ARE NOT COLLECTING IT CURRENTLY. 
          FOR YOUR COUNTY AND A FEW OTHERS THERE'S THE LOW AND A HIGH FEE SCENARIO. WE ARE SHOWING THAT BECAUSE THEY HAVE DIFFERENT ZONES. FOR YOUR COUNTY AND THE OTHERS IT IS BECAUSE THE MOBILITY FEES VARY BY ZONE. 
          I WANTED TO SHOW THE RANGE OF POTENTIAL FEES WHEN WE SHOW CURRENT FEES AS WELL. AGAIN, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE BUILDING YOU MAY PAY ON THE LOWER END OR THE HIGHER END OF THE ZONE. THE NEXT SLIDE, VISUALIZES THE PRIOR SLIDE. BOAT TWO BARS IN YELLOW ARE THE DRAFT FEES. AND THE MOBILITY FEE AND THE SCHOOL FEE. AS YOU CAN SEE, IF YOU ARE IN THE MOLD MOBILITY FEES LOAN, YOU ARE SLIGHTLY HIGHER COMPARED TO THE COMPARISON COUNTY SPIRIT AND IF YOU'RE HERE YOU ARE ALMOST AT THE HIGHEST OF THE JURISDICTIONS. 
          WE ALSO DID THIS COMPARISON FOR THE COMMERCIAL LAND USE. 
          THIS SHOWS WHAT THEY WOULD BE FOR 1,000 SQUARE FEET OF RETAIL LAND USE. THE SAME CAVEATS APPLY. 
          THIS IS NOT COLLECTING FEES AND THE LOW AND I FEES CORRESPOND WITH VARIOUS FEES THAT VARY BY ZONES. 
          WHEN WE VISUALIZE IT WE HAVE A SIMILAR RESULT TO THE RESIDENTIAL FEE COMPARISON. IF YOU ARE IN ONE OF THE LOW MOBILITY FEE AREAS YOU WOULD BE AMONGST THE LOWER COUNTIES. 
          BUT IF YOU ARE IN THE HIGH MOBILITY FEES LOAN YOU WOULD BE IN THE HIGHEST SPIRIT AND THAT SAME STORY APPLIES TO OFFICE AND INDUSTRIAL. YOU CAN SEE A SIMILAR RESULT, 
          [01:50:08]
YOU WOULD BE ON THE LOWER END OF THE SCALE. 
          AND THE SAME GOES FOR INDUSTRIAL, BUT IF YOU ARE IN THE LOWEST YOU WOULD HAVE THE LOWEST FEES AMONGST THE COUNTIES. THAT IS IT FOR MY PRESENTATION I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TAKE ANY FEEDBACK YOU HAVE FOR ME. 
          >> I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. IS THERE ANY FLEXIBILITY WHEN WE CHARGE IT? SAID YOU CAN DO IT WITH BUILDING 
          PERMIT OR CERTIFICATE OF -- >> A FOOTNOTE. 
          I THINK WE WOULD PLAN TO CHARGE IT WHEN PAY SEEK ELECTRICAL 
          CLEARANCE. >> DISPROPORTIONATELY THIS IMPACTS MY DISTRICT BECAUSE PEOPLE COME, AND SEEK A BUILDING PERMIT TO BUILD ON LAND THEY ALREADY OWN. 
          SO THEY HAVE TO WRITE A CHECK AND THERE'S NO OPPORTUNITY TO PUT THAT INTO THEIR MORTGAGE WHERE'S THE BUY HOME FROM THEIR DEVELOPER IT'S PART OF THEIR MORTGAGE AND THEY DON'T REALIZE 
          THEY PAID. >> WE DO THE ELECTRICAL 
          CLEARANCE BUT LATER. >> 
          >> AT THAT TIME THEY APPLY THEY ARE PROVIDED THE AMOUNT BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY IT UNTIL LATER. 
          >> IF SOMEONE HAS A CONTRACT OR SOMEONE BUILDING THEIR HOUSE WERE GOING THROUGH A DEVELOPER, A LOT OF TIME THE DEVELOPER WILL PAY THAT EARLIER. SOMETIMES THE HOMEOWNERS THAT INVOLVED IT IS JUST THE FEE THAT THE DEVELOPER OR CONTRACTOR HAS 
          ADDED TO THE COST. >> THAT IS NOT THE FEEDBACK I GET. IN I WOULD DISTRICT I GET THEY HAVE TO WALK INTO OUR OFFICE AND WRITE A CHECK. 
          >> IF THEY HAVE A CONTRACTOR, MOST OF THE TIME BACK CONTRACTOR 
          PAYS THAT FEE. >> ESSENTIALLY THEY GOT WHEN THEY TURNED THEIR PERMIT IN THE WE APPROVE IT, THEY CAN PAY EVERYTHING VEIL THAT DAY. MOST PEOPLE WAIT. 
          >> THEY CAN PAY THE DAY THEY GET THE PERMIT BUT THEY DON'T HAVE 
          TO. >> IT'S IN THE FEE. 
          WHEN THEY TELL ME THEY CAN BUILD IT FOR SO MANY SQUARE FOOT IS IN 
          THE FEE. >> SO YOU WENT AND GOT YOUR MORTGAGE AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO WRITE A SEPARATE CHECK. 
          THE PEOPLE I'VE HEARD THAT FROM, ARE THE ONES -- OKAY THANK YOU 
          FOR THE CLARIFICATION. >> MY NEXT QUESTION IS, WHY WAS THE CHOICE MADE THAT WE WOULD NOT CHARGE THIS TO THE MUNICIPALITIES, I'M SPEAKING SPECIFICALLY, WHEN ONE OF SCHOOLS CHARGER TO THE MUNICIPALITIES,. 
          >> THE ANALYSIS DOES TAKE THE DEMAND FROM THE INCORPORATED CITIES WHERE THEY RECEIVE A SERVICE COVERAGE FROM THE COUNTY. THEY TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT. 
          IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING, WE CAN'T EXPECT THE MUNICIPALITY COLLECT 
          OUR IMPACT FEE. >> AND IT'S FRUSTRATING BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO SIZABLE FOR KEYSTONE HEIGHTS. 
          ONE IS A 200 HOME SUBDIVISION. ONE IS A 50 SOMETHING SUBDIVISION THAT THEY HAVE TAKEN NO ACCOUNT OF. 
          THAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THAT AREA OF THE COUNTY WITHIN THE NEXT TEN YEARS. THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY THE 
          ADDITIONAL FEE. >> THAT'S NO DIFFERENT FROM YOUR 
          MOBILITY FEE. >> SO, GREEN COAL PROVIDES 
          [01:55:27]
POLICE SERVICES. THEY PROVIDED ORANGE PARK. 
          WRINKLE DOES NOT PROVIDE FIRE SERVICES BUT WE NEED A NEW FIRE STATION IN GREENVILLE. THERE'S A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT AND WE HAVE THE 1,000 HOME SUBDIVISION COMING TO CRINKLED SPRINGS. I THINK IT WERE LOOKING AT WHO WILL MAKE AN IMPACT, UNDERSTAND THE MAJORITY OF WHAT YOU FOUND IS THE GROWTH WILL BE IN INCORPORATED AREAS BUT I THINK 
          IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. >> HOW DO YOU -- THE AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY. WE DO ( INDISCERNIBLE ) WE DO TAX EVERYONE IN THE MUNICIPALITIES ALSO FOR GENERAL GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONS. I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN BUT I THINK THAT IS ANOTHER QUESTION WE HAVE TO ANSWER ON HOW THOSE 
          SERVICES ARE PROVIDED. >> CAN YOU EXPLAIN IN THE CASE 
          OF GREEN COVE SPRINGS, -- >> THE FEES, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO COLLECT THE FEES AND IF IT CITY RECEIVES SERVICES FOR THE AREAS THEN THE FEE SCHEDULE COULD BE APPLIED. 
          FOR EXAMPLE THE GOVERNMENT AND CONSTITUTIONAL BENEFITS. 
          EVERYONE IS INCORPORATED. THEY COULD CHARGE THE FULL SCHEDULE HERE. SIMILARLY, FOR FIRE AND RESCUE, ALL OF THE CITIES EXCEPT ORANGE PARK. 
          WHEN YOU TAKE INTO A CURRENT FEE SCHEDULE IT COULD BE APPLIED IN THOSE CITIES. WEEK INCLUDED THE DEMAND AND ALL OF THE FACILITIES AND THE SERVICE AREAS THEY JUST HAVE TO CHARGE THE FEES WITHIN THEIR JURISDICTION. 
          >> SO WE HAVE A WAY TO DETERMINE WHAT THE FEE SHOULD BE BUT NOT A 
          WAY TO COLLECT IT? >> THE FEES WOULD BE INSIDE THE MUNICIPALITY. YOU WOULD HAVE AN AGREEMENT TO SAY THEY WILL COLLECT THIS ON YOUR BEHALF. 
          >> THEY DO IT BECAUSE WE PROVIDE SERVICES. 
          THINK IT SOMETHING FOR IT AND THEIR SERVICES SHOULD NOT ADD TO 
          THE BACKS OF THE TAXPAYER. >> 
          >> ORANGE PARK ISN'T THE BIG GROWTH AREA. 
          >> WERE NOT THE GROWTH AREA, BUT , THERE ARE SOME TACTICS THAT WE USE WITH ONE PUNCH POT -- ORANGE PARK TO GET AN INCREASE BUT WE SHOULD AT LEAST INQUIRE ABOUT IT. 
          KNOWING FULL WELL WHAT THE ANSWER IS. 
          BUT NONETHELESS, I AM IN AGREEMENT, IT IS AN INCREASE IN SERVICE AND THE WORK THAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. 
          >> I THINK IT IS A MECHANISM. THEY WILL HAVE TO COME TO THE 
          TABLE AND AGREED TO DO THAT. >> WHAT CAN THEY SAY? 
          [02:00:05]
          >> THANK YOU. >> NOT GOING TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT. BUT IF YOU HAD OVER 300 NEW HOMES THEY MAY HAVE TO EVALUATE THEIR STAFFING. 
          THAT MAY ADD 1-2 DEPUTIES THAT THEY HAVE TO PUT DOWN THEIR FULL TIME JUST BECAUSE THE DEMAND FOR CALLS SPIRIT THERE'S REAL COST REFLECTED HERE. AND I WILL NOT PUT YOU ON THE 
          SPOT. >> 
          >> WE ALSO NEED TO KNOW TO CHARGE FOR SERVICES WHETHER 
          AGREEMENTS ARE MADE. >> AND THEY WOULD CONTINUE TO PAY THAT. THEY WOULD CONTINUE THIS IS THIS 
          WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE. >> YOU'RE SAYING, YOU WOULD HAVE NEW TAXES BUT WE WILL GET NEW ( INDISCERNIBLE ) TAXES ON ALL OF THE OTHER HOMES TOO AND THE IMPACT. 
          MY UNDERSTANDING, BUT I'M SEEKING CLARIFICATION FOR YOU ON YOUR COMMENTS BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING IS WE ARE EXPLORING THIS BECAUSE THE TAXES ARE NOT ENOUGH TO KEEP UP WITH WINGS DO GIVE SOME COMPENSATION IT MAY NOT BE COMPENSATION BUT 
          IT DOES COME TO US. >> THAT COVERS OPERATIONS. 
          WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT A 200 HOME DEVELOPMENT, DO YOU THINK THEY WANT TO PARK IN THE AREA, THERE'S NO MONEY TO COVER THAT EXCEPT CURRENT RESIDENCE. IT WILL HAVE TO BE INCOMPETENT TO FUND THE PARK IN KEYSTONE. THIS WILL REQUIRE NEW 
          DEVELOPMENT. >> I THINK IT IS WORTHY OF 
          FURTHER THOUGHT. >> MAYBE WE CAN ASK THE SCHOOL 
          BOARD. >> WHAT IS THE TIMELINE ON -- 
          >> TONIGHT WE THOUGHT WE WOULD GET DIRECTION ON THE BOARD ON ALL YOU WANT TO BRING THE ORDINANCE BACK BECAUSE THE PLAN WAS TO BRING IT BACK IN TWO WEEKS BUT WE NEED TO KNOW ARE WE MOVING FORWARD AS PROPOSED AS PRESENTED OR IS THERE OTHER 
          THOUGHTS YOU WANT TO PURSUE? >> LET'S TAKE A POLL, THREE OF US THINK THIS IS WORK GOING INTO THE NEXT ORDINANCE. 
          >> I DO HAVE ONE QUESTION, AND I ASKED SPECIFICALLY IN TERMS OF WHAT WAS BEING SPENT ON THE SURFACE. 
          WHAT DID WE FIND OUT ABOUT THAT? >> WE LOOKED AT IT AND WE DID MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT. THERE WAS A MISCLASSIFICATION. 
          [02:05:07]
I PUT IT AS IMPROVED AND THAT INCREASE YOUR PARK ACRES. 
          ON DISCRETION WITH CITY STAFF IT BECAME CLEAR TO ME IT IS AN UNIMPROVED PARK SO WE MADE THE ADJUSTMENT. 
          THERE WERE OTHER SMALL CHANGES THAT BROUGHT DOWN THE REVISION TO MORE ACCURATELY CLASSIFY THE PARKS THAT THE COUNTY OWNS. 
          >> GO TO -- PRETTY SOON, GO UP ONE MORE. 
          I THINK IF YOU LOOK AT THIS COMPARE CLAY COUNTY TO NASSAU COUNTY AND ORANGE COUNTY THAT IS A COMMON THEME. 
          WHEN YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THE PRICE OF BURYING PARKLAND TO MEET THAT NEED, OURS IS DOUBLE GOVERNMENT FACILITIES. 
          THAT HOLDS TRUE IN NASSAU, ORANGE COUNTY, AND I DON'T THINK 
          IT IS UNCOMMON. >> PARK FEES ARE GIVEN BY THE COST OF LAND AND THAT CAN BE PRICEY. 
          THAT IS SOMETHING WE SEE AND THE JURISDICTIONS AS WELL. 
          >> I DID TEXT LAND WITH THE CITY OF KEYSTONE HEIGHTS THEY DO NOT CHARGE THE SCHOOL IMPACT FEE. FOR ME, THAT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DEVELOPMENT THE MUNICIPALITIES ARE PUTTING ON AN 
          SPECIFICALLY THESE AREAS. >> ONE OTHER THING, AND THE CALCULATION IT IS THE AMOUNT OF ACREAGE OF PARKS AND PER CAPITA. 
          I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO STRESS THAT IS WHY OUR QUALITY OF LIFE IN CLAY COUNTY IS HIGHER BECAUSE OF THE PARKS WE HAVE AND THAT IS 
          INDICATED WITHIN THE FEE. >> YOU HAVE MORE THAN 10 ACRES OF LAND AND IMPROVED PARKLAND. THAT IS DRIVING THE FEE. 
          WERE ASKING THEM TO MAINTAIN THAT SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE AS IT 
          OCCURS. >> AS FAR AS PARKS, THERE'S A REQUIREMENT FOR DEVELOPERS TO HAVE L PARK WITHIN SO MANY FEET FROM THE RESIDENCE. IS THAT CORRECT. 
          WERE TALKING ABOUT LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, WHY CAN'T WE DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT AS FAR AS MAKING A REQUIREMENT, WHY CAN'T WE GET THEM TO DO OTHER THINGS FOR US, WHAT CAN WE DO THERE? 
          >> YOU WILL HAVE THE SAME THINK YOU HAD WITH, WHAT IS THE DEVELOPMENT THAT SUSAN IS PART OF? 
          >> WE JUST GOT A DONATED PARK AND WE WILL GIVE THEM CREDIT. 
          BUT IT DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR THE FACILITIES. 
          >> THERE IS A REQUIREMENT. >> HOW MANY ACRES ARE THERE? 
          >> YOU CAN OFF-CENTER WITH CREDITS. 
          THIS ALLOWS THE COUNTY TO CONTROL WHAT'S GOING ON. 
          LIKE YOU HAVE AN AGREEMENT TO BUILD A FIRE STATION. 
          SOMETHING YOU'VE BUILT THE FIRE STATION FOR ME THE COUNTY DOES NOT HAVE TO CONSTRUCT EVENT TO GIVE THEM CREDITS FOR THAT FIRE STATION OPENED A SHE IS. THERE ARE OTHER THINGS IMPACT 
          FEES CAN HELP YOU LEVERAGE. >> IF YOU HAVE TO PICK. 
          >> YEAH IF YOU HAVE THEM. >> WHICH WE DON'T. 
          >> TAKING LIKE A BUSINESS. WITH THE MUNICIPALITIES, WHY NOT NEGOTIATE WITH THEM, CAN WE SAY YOU COLLECT FOR US WE GIVE YOU A 
          [02:10:02]
PERCENTAGE AS OUR WAY WE COULD GET THEM FROM HOPELESS OUT? 
          >> GET THE MUNICIPALITIES ARE WILLING TO COLLECT IMPACT THESE YOU WOULD START PUTTING THINGS IN YOUR IMPACT THESE THAT BENEFIT THEM DIRECTLY. IF YOU STARTED COLLECTING PARK IMPACT FEES, I AM ASSUMING AT SOME POINT THERE WILL BE A PARK BUILT INSIDE OF GREEN COVE USING THOSE MONIES. 
          >> THAT IS A VERY INTRIGUING PROPOSITION. 
          WITH THE OTHERS WERE NOT AGREEING TO DO THOSE IN THOSE SPECIFIC AREAS. IN THE GOVERNORS PARK. 
          THERE'S NO GUARANTEE WE WILL PUT A FIRE STATION IN THE PARK AND WHERE THE NEXT ONE IS ON THE LIST NEEDED. 
          >> THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. IT HAS ALREADY BEEN 
          PREDETERMINED FOR. >> WE NEGOTIATED WITH THEM AND THEY GAVE US THE PARK, THEN WE GOT THE LAND ON 315 FOR THE FIRE STATION IT WAS A STRAIGHT DONATION WE DIDN'T HAVE IMPACT FEES. THIS IS NO DIFFERENT. 
          YOU HAVE A REVENUE STREAM COMING IN AND WE HAVE TWO HAVE A PLAN ON HOW TO SPEND THE MONEY WE HAVE NOW. 
          AND IF YOU IMPLEMENTED IN IMPACT FEE WE WOULD HAVE A FIVE-YEAR PLAN OF THE POOR WOULD DECIDE HOW IT IS SPENT THROUGHOUT THE 
          COUNTY. >> HOW DO THESE APPLY, WHEN DO THEY APPLY, A LOT OF THE DIVISIONS ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. WHERE DOES THE APPLY. 
          >> IF THE DEVELOPMENT OCCURS AND IT COMES TO A THRESHOLD YOU CAN'T CHARGE THEM THE IMPACT FEES. 
          >> THE INDIVIDUAL PERMIT. >> SOME CAN BE NEGOTIATED BUT 
          THAT IS A TYPICAL APPROACH. >> WHATEVER YOU TAKE ACTION ON AND THAT STARTS THE 90 DAY WINDOW. 
          WHAT. >> WOULD HAVE TO LOOK AT THE 
          STATUTE AND SEE. >> HOW IS THE LIBRARY NUMBER DETERMINED? THIS IS HALF OF WHAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS THERE. HOW DO WE GET THE BACKUP. 
          >> THE LIBRARY AND CULTURAL FEES AND THE REC CENTER AND COMMUNITY CENTERS AND WE USE THE EXISTING FACILITY STANDARD APPROACH. 
          THE IDEA IS IT WILL REFLECT YOUR EXISTING LEVEL OF SERVICE. 
          WE QUANTIFY THE REPLACEMENT VALUE OF THE EXISTING FACILITIES THAT FALL WITHIN THIS CATEGORY AND WE COME UP WITH THE REPLACEMENT VALUE. WE CAN THEN COMPARE THAT TO THE EXISTING SERVICE. DIVIDE ONE BY THE OTHER WE GET AN EXISTING COST PER RESIDENT. WE WILL ASK NEW DEVELOPMENT AND THE DOWNSIDE IS IF YOUR LEVEL OF SERVICES LOWER THAN YOU WANTED THE IMPACT FEE WILL REFLECT THAT SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE BUT MAINTAIN THE EXISTING ONE GOING FORWARD. 
          [02:15:05]
OR AT LEAST, THE PRODUCT WE HAVE TODAY. 
          WAS THERE ANY THOUGHT WE GOT TO THE EXISTING DEFICIENCY IMPROVING FEE. THIS ONLY APPLIES TO THE CATEGORY WHERE WE INCREASE THE LEVEL OF SERVICE. 
          IT WAS A STRATEGIC DECISION BECAUSE THOSE WERE MORE NEEDED FACILITIES, YOU WANT TO DIRECT THE FUNDING TO THOSE TYPES OF FACILITIES AND BE MORE CONSERVATIVE ON THE LIBRARY FEE AND STAFF SAT AROUND AND TALKED ABOUT EXISTING FACILITY STANDARDS VERSUS FUTURE STANDARDS. 
          WITH FIRE STATIONS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT IT IS EASY. 
          YOU KNOW YOU WILL BUILD FIRE STATIONS. 
          YOU KNOW YOU WILL SEND AMBULANCES OUT. 
          THE TYPE OF VEHICLE MAY HAVE CHANGED AND THE LAST 100 YEARS, BUT THE FUNCTION IS SIMILAR. PARKS, LIBRARIES IT IS HARD TO PREDICT WHAT A LIBRARY WILL LOOK LIKE IN 20 YEARS. 
          YOU HAVE TO LOCK YOURSELF INTO WHAT YOU'RE DOING. 
          TWENTY YEARS AGO IF WE WOULD HAVE DID THIS ONE OF THE COMMISSIONERS WOULD NOT OF BEEN HAPPY IF WE SAID WE COULDN'T USE THE MONEY FOR PICKLE BALL COURT BECAUSE WERE USING IT FOR TENNIS COURTS. KEEP OUR EXISTING LEVEL. 
          COULD WANT TO INCREASE WE HAVE TO PUT SOME CIP DOLLARS TO REPAIR WE DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT A LIBRARY, COMMUNITY CENTER WILL LOOK LIKE IN 20 YEARS WE DON'T WANT TO BE LOCKED INTO SOMETHING 
          THAT WE CANNOT PREVENT OUT OF. >> HOW ABOUT ALACHUA COUNTY OR SOME OF THE OTHERS. I MEAN,, WE ARE WAY LOW IN EVERY 
          CATEGORY HERE. >> WE WOULD HAVE TO FACTOR THAT INTO THIS. AND STAFF HAS THREE NEW 
          LIBRARIES? >> I THINK IT IS MAKING THE ONES WE HAVE BETTER. THE LAST NUMBER I LOOKED AT, THERE WERE $45 PER CAPITA IN JACKSONVILLE FOR THE LIBRARY SYSTEM. CLAY COUNTY WAS AT $12. 
          THAT. >> SOME ADDRESS IT, I ALWAYS GET THI WRONG BUT WILD SPACES IN OPEN PLACES, AND IT ADDRESSES THEIR CONSERVATION PLAN AND THEIR CULTURAL FEES. 
          >> >> INDICATED THAT TRACK THE LINE IS ONE WEEK AGO, WE COULD GO THROUGH EVERY LISTING AND SEE WHETHER IT IS ALACHUA OR DO BALL. 
          THEY HAVE MORE MONEY AND THAT IS WHAT THEY SPEND IT ON. 
          YOUR FUTURE BOARDS WANT TO SPEND ADDITIONAL MONEY, THEY COULD ADD THAT TO INCREASE BUT AT LEAST IT IS COVERED. 
          >> MY CONCERN IS, WE DON'T WANT TO DRIVE THEM AWAY, BUT WITH MOBILITY WE TALKED ABOUT CERTAIN KINDS OF COMMERCIAL. 
          WE DON'T WANT -- WERE TALKING ABOUT FINE DINING RESTAURANTS. 
          >> THE FEE SCHEDULE HERE DOES NOT MAKE ANY -- I GET CERTAINLY SOMETHING THE BOARD COULD DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THESE. THE COUNTY WITHIN NEED TO BACKFILL THE LOST REVENUE FROM REDUCING OR EXEMPTING ANY LAND USE BUT THAT IS A POLICY DECISION YOU COULD MAKE AND GIVE 
          [02:20:01]
          US DIRECTION ON. >> OF THE BOARD WHEN IT'S GOING THAT DIRECTION, WE HAVE INCENTIVIZED CATEGORIES WITH THE MOBILITY FEE THAT WOULD CARRY OVER. 
          IF THAT IS WHAT YOU WANTED TO DO. 
          >> SHE'S GETTING TO DOLLAR GENERAL SPIRIT WE WANT TO INCENTIVIZE CERTAIN THINGS INSTEAD OF THOSE. 
          I DON'T KNOW. >> TERESA CAN YOU GO FORWARD. 
          >> I WAS THINKING THE OPPOSITE. WE JUST HAD A PRESENTATION ON TOURISM WHERE HE TALKED ABOUT PARKS AND THOSE PLACES BEING THE REASON PEOPLE WOULD COME HERE. SO IT IS INTRIGUING TO ME, THEY DON'T PAY PARKS OR LIBRARY AND CULTURAL, I KNOW THEY WON'T USE THE LIBRARIES BUT WHAT WOULD OUR RESIDENTS NOT BENEFIT FROM COMMERCIAL PAYING? IF SOMEONE REALLY NOT GOING TO OPEN THAT BUSINESS BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY A? 
          >> I AGREE THE PRICES BEFORE WERE PRETTY HIGH. 
          >> 20,000 COMPARED TO 3,000. >> THAT 20,000 INCLUDED $19,000 FOR TRANSPORTATION MOBILITY. THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED. YOU ARE TALKING $1,000. 
          HOLD $20,000 IS TRANSPORTATION INCLUDED. 
          >> THAT IS PER 1,000. FEET -- $1,000 PER SQUARE FEET. 
          >> ONLY THING I WOULD ASK THAT WE LOOK AT A BUDGETARY CAP. 
          BECAUSE RIGHT NOW YOU DON'T HAVE IT. 
          >> THIS WAS NOT INCLUDED IN AFFORDABLE HOUSING. 
          >> IN YOUR ORDINANCE YOU CAN INCLUDE AN EXACT DISTANCE 
          REDEMPTION. >> UNDER A CERTAIN INCOME WE COULD EXEMPT THEM FROM THESE FEES. 
          >> IS NOT BASED ON YOUR MOBILITY FEE. 
          IT IS BASED ON HOW THEY DEFINE IT. 
          IT IS MUCH HIGHER THAN YOU THINK. 
          >> THAT IS INTRIGUING TO ME. THAT MAY TIP THE SCALES WITH ME BECAUSE THAT MIGHT BE A WAY TO CREDIT THE PEOPLE WHO IN MY DISTRICT, DO YOU FOLLOW MY LOGIC? BECAUSE WE TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE, I ASKED IS THERE ANY EXEMPTION FROM PEOPLE LIVE ON THEIR LAND FOR GENERATION AND JUST WANT THEIR CHILD TO HAVE 5 ACRES AND BUILD A HOUSE ON A. 
          THAT IS NOT ADDING IMPACT TO THE COUNTY THE WAY THESE NEW DEVELOPMENTS ARE. BUT MOST OF THOSE PEOPLE WOULD FALL BELOW THOSE INCOME THRESHOLDS I WOULD IMAGINE. 
          IF YOU'RE SAYING IT'S HIGHER THAN YOU THINK IT WOULD BE, THAT PREVENTS THE BIG LANDOWNERS FROM GETTING THOSE EXEMPTIONS. 
          I DON'T KNOW. I WOULD BE WILLING TO TALK ABOUT THAT FURTHER WHEN YOU BRING IT BACK. 
          >> IT DOES NOT PENALIZE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. 
          >> ANY OTHER COMMENTS? >> YOU NEED ANYTHING FROM US? PANTS I GUESS THE QUESTION WE HAVE, DO WE THINK WE WOULD BE -- WHEN IT BE BEST TO BRING BACK A PROPOSED ORDINANCE FOR FURTHER DISCUSSION AND ADVERTISE IT TO BE A HEARING ON NOVEMBER 9, OR HAVE THE HEARING SET, AND YOU CAN LOOK AT THE ORDINANCE AND CONTINUE IT? WHAT WOULD BE YOUR PREFERENCE? 
          >> I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE FINAL SHOT. 
          WE CAN ALWAYS TWEAK IT. YOU PRETTY MUCH KNOW WHERE YOU WANT TO BE WITH THE. WE ARE LOOKING FOR EXEMPTIONS 
          HERE. >> I THINK WE CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THE ORDINANCE THEN ADDRESSED THE SITUATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN MENTIONED HERE WHETHER IT'S LOOKING INTO REVENUE OR INCOME OR WHETHER A MUNICIPALITY IS WILLING TO WORK WITH US TO PAY THEIR SHARE. WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL DIFFERENT QUESTIONS AND WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT. 
          I LOOK AT THAT, AND I SAID AT THE MEETING, WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE G-BAR. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING. THERE HAS TO BE ADDITIONAL 
          [02:25:06]
REVENUES TO CATCH US UP TO WHERE WE'D NEED TO BE IN SOME CASES FIVE CRITICAL MISSION SPIRIT SO THE SOONER WE GET TO IT THE BETTER. NOT TOTALLY COMFORTABLE WITH PUTTING THIS ON THE BUILDING INDUSTRY, ONLY IN THE SENSE YOU COMBINE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN PLAY COUNTY IT WOULD BE THE THIRD LARGEST EMPLOYER IN THE COUNTY. 
          IT HASN'T 245 MILLION-DOLLAR FINANCIAL IMPACT BECAUSE THERE'S AN X AMOUNT OF PEOPLE MAKE THAT AND I WOULD HATE TO DO SOMETHING THAT DAMPENS THAT INDUSTRY, AND WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING READY TO BE REPLACED. BUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY'RE THE ONES BENEFITING FROM INTRODUCING NEW RESIDENTS INTO THE COUNTY SO THIS IS ONE WAY. I SAY WE JUST MOVE FORWARD WITH THE NEW ORDINANCE TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN ESTIMATES DISCUSSED AND WE CAN ALWAYS TWEAK IT TO INCLUDE THOSE SPIRIT WE CAN GENTLY NEGOTIATE SOME DEALS WITH HOWARD AND SEE IF HE HAS ANY PUSHBACK OR SUCCESS ON IT. 
          >> THE REASON WE DECIDED TO DO THIS IS BECAUSE OUR JAILS ARE AT CAPACITY. PASS -- 
          >> THAT WAS THE WHOLE REASON BUT IT'S A GOOD REASON. 
          >> WE ARE AT CAPACITY. >> IF WE WANT A GOOD COMMUNITY, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE IS OUR CONSTITUENTS ARE DEMANDING MORE SERVICES. WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GIVE IT TO THEM. WE HAVE RUNAWAY GROWTH. 
          YOU THINK IF WE INCREASE THE FEASIBLE STOP THE GROWTH, NO. 
          IT WILL CONTINUE TO GROW. WE DON'T NEED MORE PEOPLE BUT IF THEY COME, LET'S MAKE IT A QUALITY COMMUNITY. 
          >> I THINK CHOI DID AN ANALYSIS OF A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME. 
          >> ARE TALKING ABOUT THE $11 PER MONTH. 
          >> YET, IF YOU DO IT LIKE THAT YOUR MORTGAGE IS $11 EXTRA. 
          >> I DON'T THINK THAT IF IT A LOT. 
          I THINK MOST PEOPLE ONLY HAVE A MORTGAGE FOR SEVEN YEARS. 
          THEY WILL BE USING THE SERVICES. BOTTOM LINE, I'M TOTALLY COMFORTABLE WITH IT. I DON'T SEE ANOTHER OPTION. 
          >> WE WILL BRING BACK AND ORDINANCE IN TWO WEEKS, LOOK AT SOME LANGUAGE FOR THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. 
          HELP ME OUT. >> I AM ASSUMING WE WANT SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THE MOBILITY FEE. 
          JUST BE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE. 
          >> ALONG WITH FIGURING OUT A WAY TO HELP THE MUNICIPALITIES SHARE 
          IN THE PROJECT. >> IS IT ALL RIGHT IF WE TAKE THAT ONE, I THINK IT WILL TAKE MORE TIME TO DEVELOP WITH THE BOARDS AND WORK WITH THE CITY MANAGERS. 
          >> I DON'T THINK YOU WILL GET ANY AGREEMENTS BUT LET'S FOLD THE QUESTION TO HIM AS HE WHAT RESPONSE WE GET. 
          >> WE CAN INCLUDE -- I LOOKED AT THE SCHOOL IMPACT FEE ORDINANCE. 
          IT PROVIDES IT IS COVERED IN THE UNINCORPORATED TO THE EXTENT THEY ENTER INTO AN INTERLOCAL. I'VE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH THE SCHOOL REPRESENTATIVE RIGHT NOW. HE'S NOT AWARE BUT HE'S TRYING TO FIGURE THAT OUT. THEY MAY WANT TO CONSIDER IT. 
          >> THIS IS THE FIRST TIME AND THE CITY OF KEYSTONE HEIGHTS, ALTHOUGH THE GROWTH IS AT KEYSTONE HEIGHTS ELEMENTARY WHICH THAT CAPACITY, BUT FOR CRINKLE PET IS ANOTHER 1,000 HOMES THAT ARE STARTER OR FAMILY SIZE HOMES. 
          ARE THEY EVEN 1,000 SQUARE FEET, >> 1500. 
          I THINK THEY ARE ABOUT 1500. >> I THOUGHT THEY WERE 1,000 
          SQUARE FEET. >> I THINK THAT IS WHO THEY ARE GEARED TOWARDS FAMILIES. I JUST DON'T KNOW, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE HAD ANY GROWTH SIZE AND THOSE MUNICIPALITIES SINCE ORANGE PARK TOOK OFF. 
          >> THE TRAIN HAS LEFT THE STATION FOR ORANGE PARK. 
          [02:30:03]
          >> I WILL ENGAGE WITH THE CITY MANAGERS. 
          AND I HEARD A LITTLE BIT OF THIS EARLIER, IT IS WITHIN PROPORTION OF THE GROWTH WITHIN THE MUNICIPALITY, IF THE BOARD WAS COMMITTED TO REFUND THAT BACK, BUT TO USE THE MONEY TO IMPROVE THAT SERVICE AREA, THAT WOULD BE FAIR ACROSS THE BOARD. 
          THEY MAY LIKE THAT. IT IS A REVENUE STREAM FOR THEM TO HELP THEM OUT, AND THEY'RE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THAT. 
          THEIR BUDGETS ARE SO TIGHT. >> OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. >> WE BEAT THAT WENT TO DEATH. 
          >> MILTON, I UNDERSTAND YOU ARE UP NEXT. 
          >> GOOD EVENING. BEFORE US DARK TALKING NOT TO GET INTO DETAILS BUT ( INDISCERNIBLE ) DO HAVE A 
          MILLAGE RATE FOR OPEN SPACES. >> AM I SAYING IT WRONG. 
          WILD PLACES, I DON'T THINK THAT IS RIGHT. 
          BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. 
          >> IT IS FOR PASSIVE USAGE, HIKING AND BIKING. 
          >> THAT WOULD NOT FIT THEIR LIBRARY. 
          >> OF THE LIBRARIES ARE ACTUALLY A SEPARATE TAXING DISTRICT WITH THE BOARD IN THE SAME WAY THAT WE ARE HERE. 
          >> AS A STANDALONE TAXING DISTRICT THEY SET THEIR OWN VILLAGE RATES FOR THE LIBRARIES SEPARATE FROM THE MILLAGE RATE. 
          TO ME THAT IS A MAJOR DIFFERENCE IN HOUSEBOAT FIBERS ARE FUNDED. 
          >> WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE ONE OF THE HIGHEST PROPERTY TAXES IN THE STATE THAT ARE NOT WATERFRONT. 
          >> I JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON WHERE THE YARD TRASH STANDS THIS EVENING. I WAS HOPING WE WOULD SEE THE COLLECTION ROUTES AT 50% COMPLETED THEY ARE MORE AT 35%. 
          IT'S NOT AS HEAVY, BUT IT SEEMS AS IF EVERY HOUSE HAS SOMETHING OUT THERE TO COLLECT. I THINK WE WILL MAKE HEADWAY ON FRIDAY AND HOPEFULLY FINISH. WE WILL HAVE NINE ADDITIONAL TRUCKS SO THAT WILL BE A LOT OF TRUCKS. 
          THE DIFFICULTY IS IT'S ONE OF OUR WORK NORTHERN AREAS IT'S A LONG TURNAROUND TIME WE TO LOSE TIME AND THAT'S A LOT OF EXTRA RESOURCES. SO SO WHEN WE GET VECTRA CONVERT DRIVER, AND IN THE CASE OF ORANGE PARK, THEY ALSO RECOMMEND 
          ASSISTANT. >> THIS IS GOING ALL OF THE WAY

          THURSDAY IS FINE AVENUE. >> I DON'T I DON'T KNOW GLOBALLY PULLED OUT OF THERE TODAY THEY HAD FIVE TRUCKS. 
          >> THE MAGNITUDE IS MORE THAN WE EXPECTED. 
          THIS IS TO HAPPEN THREE DAYS AFTER THE STORM. 
          WE DIDN'T SEE THE VOLUME THAT HAS COME OUT SINCE. 
          IS JUST ADJUSTED ON THE FLY. >> IT'S A LOT OF LETTER STUFF PEOPLE WERE DISCUSSING IT AT LUNCH TODAY. 
          BUT I DID GET A COMPLIMENT AND I PASSED IT ON, THINGS SEEM TO BE KIDDING PICKED UP A LOT FASTER THAN THEY DID BEFORE. 
          KUDOS TO YOU GUYS. >> SEVERAL THINGS HELP US WITH THAT. WE APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THAT WAS SHARED. THIS STORM WASN'T AS BAD BUT ALSO WE HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE A FW TIMES NOW. 
          SO WE GEARED UP WITH THE EXTRA TRUCKS MUCH EARLIER, AND WE HAVE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD. THAT HAS HELPED US A LOT. 
          WE JUST ASK PEOPLE TO BE PATIENT REMOTE PICKED GOD UP. 
          >> >> SOMEONE SAYS MY COUSINS IT IS 
          SO PEOPLE ARE PICKING THAT HAVE. >> THE CONVERSATION STARTED IS WHEN YOU GUYS WILL START RECYCLING AGAIN. 
          >> WE HAVE HAD THE BOARD APPROVED FOR US TO WAIVE THE YARD TRASH FEES. I THINK THAT DID HELP US, EVEN THAT SATURDAY AFTER THE STORM MORE PEOPLE WERE BRINGING IN GARBAGE AND YARD TRASH. THE FOLKS THAT WERE BRINGING 
          [02:40:03]
YARD TRASH REALLY APPRECIATED IT.

          RICHARD SMITH,. >> I DID MENTION THAT TO HIM. 
          >> THAT WOULD BE ONE WAY. THEY COULD GET ENOUGH RESIDENTS 
          WHO LIVE ON THE ROAD. >> THE OTHER IS WE HAVE HER A LOT OF TIMES INDIVIDUALS HAVE SUCCESS REACHING OUT TO THE CONTRACTOR. I WORK WITH THEM DIRECTLY AND. 
          >> COMMISSIONER CELLA. >> I HAVE A LITTLE NEWS. 
          YOU MAY RECALL A GENTLEMAN CAME TO US AT THE LAST MEETING. 
          AND HE CAME TO REQUEST THE LORD TO REBATE HIM $42,000 WHEN HIS HOUSE WAS FORECLOSED UPON. I THOUGHT WE SHOULD PROBABLY LOOK INTO HIS CASE FURTHER. SO COURTNEY WAS KIND ENOUGH TO BACKTRACK WITCHERY CENTER STAFF TO SEE WHAT TRANSPIRED IN THIS PARTICULAR HOME AND THAT WAY EVERYTHING WENT DOWN. 
          AS IT TURNS OUT, I THOUGHT, BECAUSE IT WAS SUCH A LARGE FINE THAT STARTED BEFORE HE OCCUPIED THE HOME AND TOOK OVER HIS THAT'S HOME, THERE'S SOME CONJECTURE THERE, AS TO WHEN HE STOPPED PAYING THE MORTGAGE IT WAS LONG AFTER HIS DAD PASSED AWAY. WE COULD'VE MEANT 2012 OR 2017 BEEN A HARD TIME TRYING TO FIGURE THAT OUT. 
          IN EITHER CASE, CONSEQUENTLY, ANTHEM FORECLOSURE THE BANK GOT PAID OFF AND WE GOT PAID AS WELL. 
          ANNIE GOT THE OVERAGE WHICH I THINK WAS $100,000 PER. 
          >> THERE MAY BE SOME MITIGATING CIRCUMSTANCES. 
          HE WAS IN THE HOUSE FOR MANY YEARS. 
          AND WE LOOKED AT IT. AS SOMEONE HAD A SIGNATURE WHERE THE SIGNATURE WAS THERE. WE WENT TO THE HOUSE THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. HE LIVED THERE WITH ROOMMATES. 
          I FEEL BADLY FOR THEM. >> IF THE BOARD WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD THIS IS THE TIME TO SAY IT. 
          >> WE SHOULD MOVE ABOUT OUR BUSINESS TO CONSIDER THE CLOSE 
          CASE. >> HE DID INDICATE TO US, EVERYONE HEARD THEY PUT ON HOLD. BECAUSE OF THOSE BIDS THEY CAME IN WAS $180 MILLION OVER WHAT THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE OR WHAT THEY BUDGETED IT TO BE. THE LOWEST BID CAME IN AT 600 MILLION. NATURALLY, WE ALREADY KNOW THAT. 
          WE SAW THAT IN OUR GROUP AS TO WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE COST. 
          [03:05:01]
AND THERE WAS SOME THOUGHT AS TO WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO. 
          HE SAID THEY WERE MOVING AHEAD. DID HE SAY THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT WAS PICKING UP SOME OF THE TAB. 
          >> WAS THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE AUTHORITY. 
          >> >> THERE SHOULD BE NO DELAYS. 
          >> THE CONSTRUCTION WILL GET STARTED. 
          >> WE TALKED ABOUT HIGHWAY 16 AND THE POSSIBLE EXPANSION. 
          SOME OF THE THINGS WE HAVE TO DO TO MOVE FORWARD ON THAT. 
          >> I HAVE MORE IN THE NEXT MEETING. 
          >> MOSES DONATING COMING NOVEMBER 4. 
          THIS IS FOR DIFFERENT STORES THAT WILL SHOW UP TO INSTALL ALL OF THIS PLANT MATERIAL. WILL HAVE MORE ON THAT COMING 
          UP. >> I JUST WANT TO REITERATE RIM OF THE TOWN HALL FOR DISTRICT FIVE AT RUSSELL BAPTIST AT 
          2:00 P.M. >> FOOD TRUCK FRIDAY, I WANTED TO COME THURSDAY. THE DEVIL SPLASHES THURSDAY NIGHT. THE PARADE IS FRIDAY ALL AROUND FOR SCHOOL BOARD. AND THAT'S IT. 
          THAT'S ALL I HAVE. >> I WAS GOING TO TRY AND ASK IF WE NEEDED MORE CITIZEN INPUT AS MR. LEE TALK TO US. 
          I ASSUME WE ARE ADVERTISING THE HECK OUT OF IT. 
          THAT IS ALWAYS BEEN THE ISSUE IN CLAY COUNTY. 
          THEY WILL GET INVOLVED WITH THE INITIATIVES AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEY ARE SUBVERTING THEM ALONG AND CITIZENS ARE ASKING US COME WE'RE DOING X, Y, AND Z. 
          >> I THOUGHT WE HAD AN EASY TURNOUT LAST NIGHT.
