I WILL TAKE UP MUCH OF YOUR TIME IS I JUST WANTED TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONSIDER THAT I'M CONCERNED AS YOU DISCUSS ITEM 12 AND TO THINK ABOUT THIS CURRENT PANDEMIC AND HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE REAL ESTATE MARKET AND MORTGAGE CREDIBILITY. LIBERTY SEEN SEVERAL LENDERS THAT HAVE [INDISCERNIBLE] THE PACE PROGRAM CREATES THE VALUE WHICH CAN LEAD TO MORE PRESSURE. WE DON'T NEED THAT ADDITIONAL PRESSURE OUT THERE.

YOU KNOW, WE ARE HOPEFUL THE REAL ESTATE MARKET WOULD NOT GO THE ROUTE AND I'M SURE YOU WILL BE HAPPY TO HEAR THAT BUT WE WANT TO BE MINDFUL OF THINGS THAT CAN HAVE EFFECTS ON THE MARKET. I JUST ASK YOU CONSIDERING Ã THE NEGATIVE IMPACT THAT WERE

[00:05:07]

AND I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I HOPE YOU HAVE A SAFE NIGHT.

[CONSENT AGENDA]

IS THERE A MOTION ON EQUIPMENT IS GENDER? >> MOVED TO APPROVE

>> SECOND. >> OKAY. THERE'S A MOTION AND A SECOND.

YES. >> AND THE CHAIRMAN VOTES IN THE AFFIRMATIVE.

SO MOVING PAST THE CONSENT AGENDA WE ARE INTO OLD BUSINESS.

[9.  Subdivision MSBU Agreements]

>> BEFORE YOU IS APPROVAL OF TWO INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS WHICH ARE AGREEMENTS WITH THE TAX COLLECTOR AND THE PROPERTY APPRAISER FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AND COLLECTION COSTS THAT WOULD BE INCURRED BY THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THE SUBDIVISION AS YOU WILL RECALL BACK IN DECEMBER YOU APPROVED MOVING FORWARD WITH THE NOTICE OF INTENT TO ENACT THE SUBDIVISION MSTU FOR NEW SUBDIVISIONS THAT COME ONLINE THAT YOU ACCEPT MAINTENANCE OF THEIR ROADS BUT SUBJECT TO AND MSTU. WE CURRENTY HAVE EIGHT SUBDIVISIONS THAT WILL BE INCLUDED AND THIS IS JUST IN CONNECTION WITH THE STATUTORY PROCESS FOR MOVING ALONG.

WE WILL BE BACK IN FRONT OF YOU FOR THE INITIAL ASSESSMENT RESOLUTION ON THE JUNE 23 BOARD MEETING AND THEN THE FINAL ASSESSMENT RESOLUTION THAT'S CURRENTLY PLANNED FOR THE AUGUST 25 BOARD MEETING. THESE ARE JUST A TWO PRELIMINARY AGREEMENTS TO MOVE

FORWARD WITH THE TAX COLLECTOR IN THE PROPERTY APPRAISER. >> DOES THAT COME WITH A COST TO THE COUNTY? DO I HAVE TO REIMBURSE THEM ANYTHING FOR IT?

>> THAT'S WHAT THE AGREEMENT IS FOR. HOWEVER NORMALLY THERE HAVEN'T BEEN CHARGES THAT THEY'VE ASSESSED US BUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE STATUTE THEY ARE

ENTITLED TO THEIR COSTS.> ANY QUESTIONS? >> ANY IDEA WHAT THOSE COSTS

COULD BE? >> THE COST THAT THE PROPERTY APPRAISER

>> HOW IS IT FIGURE? >> IS A VERY MINIMAL PERCENTAGE.

I DIDN'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS BUT THIS WAS SOMETHING WE TALKED ABOUT WHEN WE PUT THIS POLICY INTO PLACE THAT THERE WOULD BE FUN FOR REMUNERATION FOR THEM BECAUSE OF THE WORK THAT IT

CREATES FOR THEM IN THEIR DEPARTMENT. >> AND ON SOME LEVEL IF THEY DON'T GET IT THIS WAY THEY WILL JUST COME BACK WITH US TO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FUNDING.

[00:10:06]

>> WHAT'S YOUR PLEASURE? >> I MOVED FOR APPROVAL >> A MOTION AND A SECOND.

[10.  Update regarding Big Tree Lakes Road Grading MSBU Petitions (C. Grimm)]

THIS IS SHORT AND SWEET. COURTNEY? >> SURE.

NICK IS GOING TO SHARE A SLIDE WITH YOU BUT THIS IS IN CONNECTION WITH IF YOU WILL RECALL I BELIEVE IT WAS BACK IN THE FALL EARLY WINTER THAT WE RECEIVED PETITIONS FOR DIFFERENT SECTIONS WITHIN THE BIG TREE LAKE SUBDIVISION AND THEY REQUESTED MOVING FORWARD TO SET UP AND MSTU ÃFOR THEIR DIFFERENT SECTIONS. WE PROCEEDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH COUNTY POLICY AND SENT OUT BALLOTS ON MARCH 26. AND THE BALLOTS WERE CLOSED AS OF APRIL 26. IN ORDER TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PETITION THE COUNTY POLICY REQUIRES THAT 51 PERCENT OF THE TOTAL PARCEL OWNERS VOTE IN FAVOR.

AS YOU WILL SEE ON YOUR SCREEN, 51 PERCENT WAS NOT RECEIVED FROM ANY PARTICULAR SECTION BUT REGARDLESS, THE OVERWHELMING VOTES WERE NOT IN FAVOR OF MOVING FORWARD.

WE WILL SEND OUT TO ALL OF THE HOMEOWNERS OR PROPERTY OWNERS THAT SENT IN A BALLOT.

WE SENT OUT THE INFORMATION THAT YOU ARE SEEING ON YOUR SCREEN.

WE WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT. IN PARTICULAR COMMISSIONER ROLLINS MAY HAVE RECEIVED ÃBUT

IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS LET ME KNOW. >> THAT WAS YOUR DISTRICT.

ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT THAT NUMBER BREAK UP? >> A LITTLE, BUT THAT'S WHY WE VOTE. AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS PRETTY OVERWHELMING SO I WOULD NOT WANT TO GO AGAINST WHAT THE MAJORITY OF THOSE COMMUNITIES WANT.

>> OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS?

>> WHAT'S THE FUTURE OUTCOME OF THAT AREA? THEY DON'T HAVE ANY WAY AT ALL

NOW TO MAINTAIN THE ROAD, CORRECT? >> THEY ARE WORKING ON RECONSTITUTING AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A VOTE FOR THAT IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

SO I AM NOT SURE HOW THAT WILL TURN OUT BUT THAT WAS ALSO HAPPENING SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH

THE REQUEST FOR THE MSTU'S. >> BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE THAT'S EVEN TOUGHER THAN THIS.

>> MAYBE THE ROADS ARE IN THAT BAD OF SHAPE AFTER ALL. I'M NOT HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DROP THOSE SUBDIVISIONS. ANY OTHER COMMENTS? THIS IS JUST FOR INFORMATION.

[11.  SHIP Annual Report]

>> YES SIR. HOW ARE YOU DOING TODAY? >> WE ARE OUTSTANDING AS USUAL.

TERESA IS HERE WITH ME AND SHE WILL JUST TAKE A COUPLE OF SECONDS TO GIVE YOU A REPORT OF

THE ANNUAL REPORT. TERESA? >> THIS IS AN UPDATE OF THE ANNUAL REPORT THAT WAS PRESENTED TO YOU IN SEPTEMBER 2019.

THE REPORT THAT WAS SUBMITTED TO YOU AND SEPTEMBER 2019 SHOWED WE STILL HAD $226,000 THAT WE NEED TO HAVE EXPENDED. THOSE FUNDS HAVE BEEN EXPENDED AND THEREFORE WE HAVE UPDATED THIS REPORT. IT IS SHOWING THAT WE HAVE ASSISTED OVER 42 PEOPLE AND DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE. OWNER OCCUPIED REHAB. WE HAVE ASSISTED 39 PEOPLE, 39 FAMILIES. A LITTLE OVER ÃA OVER $881,000 ON THAT.

OUR SPECIAL NEEDS HOUSING, WE HAVE SPENT 12,663. WE DID THAT ASSISTING A GROUP HOME. OUR HOMELESS PREVENTION PROGRAM, WE HAVE ASSISTED 12 FAMILIES AND SPENT $91,000. SO THAT'S OUR UPDATED REPORT FOR REVIEW AND WE ARE REQUESTING AN UPDATED CERTIFICATION TO GO ALONG WITH THAT.

I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> I AM NOT TOTALLY FAMILIAR

[00:15:06]

THAT POINT IN TIME? >> WELL, THE DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE IF WE ARE HELPING FIRST-TIME HOMEBUYERS, THOSE MORTGAGES SIT AS A SILENT SECOND.

THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY THAT MORTGAGE BACK UNTIL THE HOUSE IS NOT THE PRIMARY RESIDENCE.

UNTIL THEY MOVE, THEY SELL IT FOR THEY RENT IT OUT. AT THE TIME THE MORTGAGE WILL BECOME DUE. THE DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE, THAT'S A SOFT SECOND.

NO PAYMENTS AND NO ENTRANCE NO ACCRUAL ON THAT. THE OWNER OCCUPIED REHAB, WE DO TAKE A MORTGAGE BACK ON THE AND SOME OF THOSE WERE DONE AS A GRANT BUT WE STILL TAKE A FIVE YEAR MORTGAGE ON THOSE. SO THEY LIVE IN THE HOUSE FIVE YEARS, THEN WE IS SATISFIED THAT MORTGAGE IF THEY DON'T LIVE IN THE HOUSE FIVE YEARS THEN IF THEY DIE OR SOMETHING

THEIR HEIRS WOULD NEED TO PAY THAT MONEY BACK >> WHICH IS PART OF THE SATISFACTION OF MORTGAGES THAT COME TO YOU GUYS A LOT OF TIMES ON THE CONSENT.

THANKS FOR THAT UPDATE. IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO HEAR YOU AGAIN.

>> WE NEED A VOTE TO ACCEPT REPORT AS PRESENTED. IS THERE A SECOND?

>> SECOND. MS. HUTCHINS? >> YES.

>> COMMISSIONER ROLLINS? >> YES. COMMISSIONER BOLO

>> YES >> COMMISSIONER STELLA >> YES

>> AND THE CHAIRMAN VOTES IN THE AFFIRMATIVE. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

MOVING ON TO ITEM 12. THIS IS THE DISCUSSION OF THE PROPERTY ASSESSMENT AND LOCAL SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT AND FINANCING OF QUALIFYING IMPROVEMENTS BY THE FLORIDA PACE FUNDING AGENCY. THIS IS WHAT MS. GARCIA HAD SPOKEN TO EARLIER, SO COURTNEY

DO YOU WANT US TO GIVE AN OVERVIEW ON THIS, PLEASE? >> BEFORE WE START NUMBER 12, THERE IS SOMEONE WHO HAS CALLED IN THAT HAS JUST EMAILED US A COMMENT BECAUSE SHE WAS CONCERNED ABOUT AN ITEM ON THE AGENDA THAT SHE DOES NOT SEE ON THE AGENDA.

SO FOR HER BENEFIT, LET ME COMMENT THAT HER ITEM NUMBER THAT SHE IS INTERESTED IN WAS INCLUDED AS PART OF THE CONSENT AGENDA UNDER ITEM NUMBER EIGHT AND IF SHE WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE COMMENTS, THERE IS A PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION AT THE END OF THE MEETING AND WE CAN CERTAINLY ALLOW HER TO COMMENT AT THAT TIME. AND THAT WAS FOR MRS. WILLIAMS. MRS. WILLIAMS, DID YOU HEAR THAT, MA'AM? MISS WILLIAMS?

>> SHE CAN JUST EMAIL US IF SHE HAS ANY ISSUES. SO MOVING FORWARD WITH ITEM

[12.  Discussion regarding the Property Assessment Clean Energy (PACE) Program and Interlocal Subscription Agreement Relating to the Funding and Financing of Qualifying Improvements by the Florida Pace Funding Agency (C. Grimm)]

THEN AS YOU MOVE INTO 2019 THERE WERE 108 ACCOUNTS AND 22 OF THOSE ACCOUNT FOR NEW ONES.

THE AVERAGE INTEREST RATE THAT SEEMS TO BE IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROGRAM IS AROUND 5.99

[00:20:01]

THOSE ARE FOR THE RESIDENTIAL ACCOUNTS. THERE ARE OUT OF THE 108 ACCOUNTS, THERE ARE TWO COMMERCIAL ACCOUNTS. ONE OF WHICH IS THE MALL AND THE OTHER IS A COMMERCIAL BUSINESS IN KEYSTONE HEIGHTS. THE AVERAGE INTEREST RATE FOR THOSE WAS IT WAS AROUND SEVEN PERCENT. THE AMOUNT OF THE LOANS FOR THE RESIDENTIAL OUTLINE LOANS THE AMOUNT IS ÃRANGES FOR THE RESIDENTIAL, ANYWHERE FROM 13,000 TO 33,000. THE AVERAGE REPAYMENT AMOUNT IS USUALLY UNDER $3000 A YEAR BUT THAT'S HOW MUCH IS ADDED TO THEIR TAX BILL EACH YEAR. IN CONNECTION WITH THIS PROGRAM, WHEN A HOMEOWNER ENTERS INTO AN AGREEMENT FOR THE SERVICES THROUGH THE FLORIDA PACE AGENCY, THERE IS A NOTICE FILED IN THE [INDISCERNIBLE] THE QUALIFYING IMPROVEMENT ALONG WITH THE FINANCE AMOUNT, THE INTEREST RATE AND THE ASSESSMENT INSTALLMENT ALONG WITH THE PERIOD OF YEARS. THERE WOULD ADDITIONALLY BE A NOTICE OF COMMENCED REPORTING THIS ITEM IS BEING PRESENTED TO YOU FOR YOU FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES AND FUTURE DIRECTION AS TO WHETHER YOU NEED FURTHER INFORMATION REGARDING THE PROGRAM OR WANT ANY OTHER ACTION TAKEN IN CONNECTION WITH THAT.

>> I HAVE A QUESTION. COURTNEY, DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY COMPANIES ARE SERVICING OUR

RESIDENTS? INITIALLY WE JUST HAD ONE. >> RIGHT.

AND WE CURRENTLY JUST HAVE THE ONE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT FLORIDA PACE FUNDING AGENCY.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THEY MAY CONTRACT WITH TO DO THE CONTRACT WORK.

I'M NOT SURE. I KNOW OUR ONLY ENTITY IS THE FLORIDA PACE FUNDING AGENCY

THEY NEVER WENT FORWARD WITH THE OTHER ENTITIES. >> I HAD A QUESTION.

IF WE DISCONTINUED IT, THE EXISTING LOANS CONTINUE ON. IT'S JUST NO NEW LOANS ARE

ADDED? >> CORRECT. >> OKAY.

>> MS. GARCIA MENTIONED A NEGATIVE IMPACT EARLIER ON. REAL ESTATE IN GENERAL.

AND OF COURSE YOU DIDN'T GO AHEAD AND TELL US ABOUT THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS OR DO YOU HAVE

ANY INFORMATION THAT COULD ENLIGHTEN US ON THAT? >> IF YOU REMEMBER BEFORE IT WAS ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO THIS ITEM CAME BEFORE THE BOARD IN TERMS OF AN ADDITIONAL COMPANY WANTING TO REPRESENT CONSUMERS IN THE PACE PROGRAM. PWE WERE GOING TO HAVE A WORKSHOP AND NEVER GOT AROUND TO THE WORKSHOP BUT IT WAS BROUGHT AROUND BECAUSE THERE WAS A RESIDENT THAT HAD A PROBLEM BUYING ONE OF THESE HOMES AND THE ADDITIONAL MONIES, ONE OF THE ASSESSMENTS BEING ON TOP OF THEIR MORTGAGE PAYMENT BUT THEY WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT IT BEFORE PURCHASING. THERE'S A GAP IN TERMS OF WHEN IT GETS REPORTED. I'M NOT REALLY CLEAR WHETHER WE FIX THAT OR NOT.

LET'S SAY THAT WE HAVE. WHAT'S HAPPENED SINCE THEN IS THAT A NUMBER OF MORTGAGES ARE NO LONGER ELIGIBLE TO BE PASSED ON IT IT HAS AN ASSESSMENT WITH A PACE ASSESSMENT OR PACE LOAN ATTACHED TO IT. SHE MENTIONED FHA AND VA LOANS FANNIE MAE, FREDDIE MAC, AND THOSE ARE IMPORTANT IN TERMS OF BEING EITHER CONTINUE WITH THE MORTGAGE ITSELF OR EVEN SELL THE HOME. IN MANY CASES, VA LOANS ARE Ã YOU CAN TAKE OVER A VA LOAN BUT YOU CAN'T IF IT'S GOING TO BE ATTACHED TO A PACE PROGRAM. WHAT I THOUGHT WHEN WE FIRST TALKED ABOUT THIS AND WE HAD THE OTHER COMPANY COME IN TO TALK ABOUT IT WAS IT WAS A BOOM TO RESIDENTS BECAUSE IT GAVE THEM ANOTHER OPTION IN TERMS OF FINANCING.

IN RETROSPECT, I DON'T KNOW IF COURTNEY MENTIONED IT, BUT THESE ASSESSMENTS ARE ANYWHERE BETWEEN FIVE AND 30 YEARS. SO THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT'S ABOUT $300, $250 A MONTH ON TOP OF ÃTRADITIONALLY THE TITLE IS CLEAR. THE SELLER TAKES CARE OF THOSE OUT OF THE SALE OF THE HOME. IN THIS CASE IT WOULD STAY IN THE NEW BUYER WOULD HAVE TO ASSUME THOSE IN A TIGHT REAL ESTATE MARKET YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO BE A SELLER WITHOUT HANGING OVER THE HEAD. NOT ONLY DO YOU HAVE TO PAY MY SALES PRICE BUT THEN WHEN YOU

[00:25:05]

I THINK IT HANDICAPS THEM IN TERMS OF WANTING TO SELL THE HOUSE IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER HOUSE YOU CAN BUY. ALL THINGS BEING EQUAL AND YOU TAKE OVER AND YOU ARE PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT THE SELLER OF THE HOME HAS YOU ON THE HOOK FOR AS LONG AS THE PAYMENTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THERE. BUT SOMETHING WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT SEVERAL YEARS AGO.HESE ARE COMING UP AND CERTAINLY AS THEY KEEP PUTTING RESTRICTIONS ON ALL OF THESE LOANS LIKE THE VA LOANS AND THE FHA LOANS IT MAKES IT TOUGHER ON THOSE FOLKS THAT WANT TO GO OUT AND BUY AND SELL. I CAN SEE WHERE THERE IS A CONCERN.

ALSO ONE OTHER THING, AND THEN I WILL WRAP UP. BUT IT WAS NOT TOO LONG AGO WHERE WE HAD A CONTRACTOR GOING DOOR TO DOOR PROMISING THE ABILITY TO DO CERTAIN THINGS FINANCIALLY FOR PEOPLE IF THEY PURCHASEHOUSEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS. ROOFS WINDOWS AIR CONDITIONING UNITS AND SOLAR OR WHATEVER. THEY WERE MISREPRESENTING THEMSELVES AND THE PROGRAM WITHOUT EXPLAINING TO THE HOMEOWNER THAT THESE CERTAIN THINGS MIGHT BE A NEGATIVE AS WELL AS THE POSITIVE IN TERMS OF GETTING MONEY TO BE ABLE TO DO THE PROJECTS.

THOSE ARE THINGS WE ARE LOOKING AT AN COURTNEY AND I LOOKED AT COLLIER COUNTY IS ONE OF THE EXAMPLES. THEY DIDN'T DO WHAT WE HAVE EXPLAINED HERE IN TERMS OF ENDING THE RESIDENTIAL BUT CONTINUING WITH THE COMMERCIAL ASPECT IS THAT'S SOMETHING THEY WANTED. I THINK GREEN COVE AND ORANGE PARK ALSO HAVE THE PACE PROGRAM IN PLACE GREEN COVE I BELIEVE HAS THREE RESIDENTS ON IT AND ORANGE PARK HAS EIGHT.

IT'S NOT BEEN SOMETHING THAT IS EXTREMELY POPULAR OR SOMETHING THIS TURNED OUT TO BE A BENEFIT TO HOMEOWNERS SO TAKING IT AWAY I DON'T THINK WE ARE HURTING ANYBODY IN THAT REGARD.

I THINK WE ARE SAFEGUARDING THE FINANCIALS AND THE POSSIBLE HOME THAT THE PERSON IS TRYING

TO BUY OR SELL. >> AND THIS IS RIGHT UP THERE WITH BEAUTY SALONS.

YOU HAVE TO TAKE 30 YEARS TO PAY OFF A ROOF IT'S GOING TO LAST 15 YEARS.

YOU ARE ASKING FOR IT THERE. IF YOU SAID NOW THE COUNTY IS IN A POSITION WHERE WE ARE FORCING THE PEOPLE PAY ON THE LOAN SO THERE'S NO RISK, IT'S JUST NOT GOOD BUSINESS.

>> I WOULD CONCUR. WE GAVE IT A SHOT AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE SOMETHING THAT'S BEING UTILIZED A LOT. PLENTY OF STORIES WERE WAS NOT PROPERLY EXPLAINED TO PEOPLE AND THE AVERAGE HOME BUYER, WE SHOULDN'T EXPECT THEM TO DO THE DUE DILIGENCE AND IT CAN BE FOR SALE BY OWNER AND YOU HAVE NO ONE INVOLVED WHATSOEVER TO HELP THEM.

I'M NOT IN SUPPORT OF IT FOR THE RESIDENTIAL. ON THE OTHER SIDE AS YOU COMMENTED, COMMISSIONER, THE PEOPLE THAT ARE ON THE COMMERCIAL SIDE THEY HAVE THE EXPERTS ON HAND AND THEY WILL DO THEIR DUE DILIGENCE SO I'M IN FAVOR OF KEEPING IT FOR THE

COMMERCIAL SIDE. >> I CONCUR. >> A MAN OF FEW WORDS.

>> IF HE'S GOT THE FAST FOOD APPOINTMENT >> HE'S GOING TO MISS HIS

APPOINTMENT. >> THIS PROGRAM IS PASSED AS STRICTLY COUNTY CHOICE.

IT'S STRICTLY VOLUNTARY? EITHER ONE OR BOTH OR NONE? >> YES.

>> THEN I MAKE A MOTION >> GO AHEAD >> FOR ENTERTAINMENT.

I MOVE THAT WE CONTINUE ON WITH THE COMMERCIAL BUT WE DO AWAY WITH THE RESIDENTIAL PACE

PROGRAM >> SECOND. >> THERE IS A SECOND.

[00:30:01]

>> SO THAT'S EVERYBODY'S CONSENSUS AS PART OF THE DIRECTION WE WILL PREPARE THE APPROPRIATE PAPERWORK WE WILL NEED TO BRING BACK TO THE BOARD.

>> WE DON'T VOTE ON IT TODAY? >> RIGHT. WE HAD TO DO A NEW RESOLUTION

AMENDING THE OTHER RESOLUTION >> MAY HAVE COMMISSIONERS AND AFFIRMATIVE DO WE HAVE A

CONSENSUS THAT'S THE DIRECTION WE NEED TO MOVE IN? >> YES.

MOVING ON TO ITEM 13, UPCOMING REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. HIS JENNIFER HEROD?

[13.  Upcoming Requests for Proposals – solicitations for the following RFP is currently in draft: Insurance Broker/ Consulting Services for Employee Insurance Benefits: Services currently provided by Abentras Benefit Administrators. Anticipated completion of procurement process by July 2020. (J. Bethelmy)]

YOU ARE ON NUMBER 13. >> JUST FOR THE BOARD'S INFORMATION REGARDING AN UPCOMING REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL, STAFF IS CURRENTLY DRAFTING THE RFP RIGHT NOW AND WILL BE MOVING FORWARD TO THE FRP LETTING AN INSURANCE BROKER OR CONSULTANT FOR EMPLOYEE BENEFITS CURRENTLY THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BY A BENCH TRUST AND STAFF WILL MOVE FORWARD TO TRY TO COMPLETE THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS BY JULY OF THIS YEAR AND WE ARE WORKING WITH SOME VERY TIGHT TIME FRAMES IN ORDER TO SECURE. WE GET SET UP FOR THE OPEN ENROLLMENT PROCESS. I'M ASSUMING AS YOU ARE COMPARING THESE TWO ONE IS BETTER BENEFIT ÃWHERE DRAFTING THE PROPOSAL TO GO OUT AND ASK BIDDERS TO COMPETE FOR THAT

SERVICE. >> OKAY. COMPETITION IS GOOD.

>> ANY QUESTIONS FOR JENNIFER BY THE BOARD? THIS IS JUST FOR INFORMATION

[14.  Software Agreement with Tyler Technologies]

I THINK WE HAVE ON BOARD CHEREESE. HE WAS GIVEN THE INITIAL PREP

>> SO THIS IS TYLER TECHNOLOGIES TO PIGGYBACK THE RFP ST. JOHNS COUNTY PUT OUT TO PAY MY SYSTEM FOR PERMITTING INSPECTIONS. IT'S A 10 YEAR AGREEMENT.

WE ARE WORKING ON THIS. I HAVE A COPY OF THE SWORN SHE SHOWS IT WAS COMPETITIVELY BID

AND TYLER WAS AWARDED AS NUMBER ONE. >> YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE US THE DOWN AND DIRTY ON WHY THE SYSTEM IS BETTER THAN WHAT WE'VE GOT?

>> WELL, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE DOWN AND DIRTY WHY IT AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER ON THIS IN OUR DEPARTMENTS. IT'S DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE HAVE.

WE HAVE TO WORK DILIGENTLY. BECAUSE ESSENTIALLY THEY ARE THE ONES THAT HAVE TO KEEP CHANGES FOR IT ALL THE WHILE. IT HAS ALL OF THE BELLS AND WHISTLES.

WE THINK IT WILL BE A GREAT PRODUCT FOR US TO USE AND WILL BE A GREAT PRODUCT FOR OUR CONSUMER TO USE ONE OF THE OTHER BENEFITS IS THE FACT THAT ST. JOHNS COUNTY AND DUVALL COUNTY ALSO USE THE SAME PRODUCT. ANYBODY THAT DOES BUSINESS IN OUR THREE COUNTIES WILL BE EXTREMELY FAMILIAR WITH IT WHICH WILL MAKE IT EVEN MORE CONSUMER OR CUSTOMER FRIENDLY. TROY AND HIS TEAM HAVE REALLY VETTED AND WE'VE HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS AND CONFERENCE CALLS WITH TOWER PERSONNEL ALONG WITH MYSELF AS WELL AND WE JUST THINK IT'S A GREAT PRODUCT AND WORK WELL FOR US. ONE OF THE THINGS ÃIT'S GOT Ã WE ARE EXCITED ABOUT GIVING IT A TRY. TROY AND HIS TEAM IS READY AND ONBOARD AND HELPFUL TO HELP US MAKE IT HAPPEN. THIS IS TRULY A TEAM APPROACH AND WE WOULD LIKE

YOUR GUYS APPROVAL TO MOVE FORWARD. >> THEY WERE NOT INVOLVED IN

[00:35:04]

>> IF EITHER TROY OR CHEREESE CAN YOU GIVE US ONE EXAMPLE OF WHAT THE SYSTEM WILL DO THAT WE HAVE TROUBLE WITH OR WHAT THE SYSTEM DOESN'T DO GIVE ME AN IDEA

>> TWO THINGS. THE CURRENT SYSTEM WAS BUILT BY ST. JOHNS COUNTY BROUGHT OVER TO CLARKE COUNTY AND BUILT IN 2005 IT WAS BUILT ON WHAT IS NOT TECHNOLOGY.

SOME OF THE THINGS OF THE CURRENT SYSTEM WILL DO HIS WILL DO ONLINE SUBMITTALS.

WE DON'T DO DIGITAL PLANT REVIEWS. EVERYTHING WE DO IS EITHER YOU EMAIL A PDF AND OR YOU PHYSICALLY BRING PAPER TO THE COUNTY.

HIS WOULD MOVE US TO BE FULLY ONLINE SUBMITTAL.

PERSON WOULD NEVER HAVE TO SHOW UP IN THE OFFICE AND IT WOULD ALLOW 100 PERCENT DIGITAL PLAN REVIEW. SO THE CONTRACTOR CAN SUBMIT THE PLAN AND ROUTE IT THROUGH THE ENTIRE PROCESS ELECTRONICALLY REVIEW EVERYTHING AND MAKE THE RECOMMENDED CHANGES AND SEND THEM BACK TO THE CONSUMER OR BUILDER AND HAVE BUTT-DIAL ELECTRONICALLY SO NOBODY COULD SHOW UP IN THE THAT BECAUSE THEY HAVE A SYSTEM BUILT-IN THAT ALLOWS FOR DIGITAL VIDEO INSPECTION INSTEAD OF HAVING TO SEND AN INSPECTOR OUT WE ARE NOT SAYING THAT SO WE ARE GOING TO INSPECT THE HOSPITAL BUT IF YOU ARE INSPECTING DID YOU PUT THE BREAKER BOX INCORRECTLY? SEE, I PUT IT IN. IF IT'S HERE, TRY TO MOVE ON. THOSE KIND OF THINGS AND I WILL

REFER TO CHEREESE. >> I WILL JUST PIGGYBACK ON TROY'S COMMENT RIGHT THERE.

SO THE VIDEO INSPECTION PIECE IS A SUPER EFFICIENT PIECE FOR EVERYBODY.

LIKE TROY SAID WE ARE NOT GOING TO DO IT ON OUR BIG COMMERCIAL BILLS AND THAT KIND OF THING BUT IF YOU HAVE A SIMPLE INSPECTION, ONE OF THE EASIEST THINGS TO DO WE'RE DOING IT Ã SO TYPICALLY WHAT WE WOULD DO FOR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS SOMEBODY PUTS IN A NEW AIR-CONDITIONING UNIT IN AND THEY CALL US AND THEY SET UP AN INSPECTION AND WE GO OUT THERE AND IF SOMETHING IS WRONG, WE HAVE TO TELL THEM WHAT TO FIX AND THEN WE HAVE TO DO A REINSPECTION. A LOT OF TIME YOU CAN SEE THAT IT GOES THROUGH JUST TO DO A SIMPLE MECHANICAL INSPECTION. THE WAY THE SYSTEM WOULD DO THE WAY WE ARE DELVING INTO RIGHT NOW IS THE FACT THE MECHANICAL CONTRACTOR CALLS US WHEN THEY ARE DONE AND WE DO VIA VIDEO, MY INSPECTOR IS SAY SHOW ME THE CONNECTION IN THE BREAKER BOX. SHOW ME THE BREAKER.

SHOW ME THIS, SHOW ME BACK. THAT GUY TAKES THE IPAD OR THE PHONE AND SHOWS HIM THOE ISSUES THAT OUR INSPECTOR IS ASKING.F EVERYTHING IS GOOD HE CAN PASS IT RIGHT THEN AND MOVE IT THROUGH THE SYSTEM AND GO TO THE NEXT ONE. IF IT'S NOT GOOD, THE DIFFERENCE IS HE CAN SAY YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG SIZE BREAKER IN THAT BOX.

YOU'VE GOT A 20 AMP AND NEED A 50 AMP AND THE GUY SAYS I WILL CALL YOU BACK IN 10 MINUTES AND GOES TO HIS TRUCK AND GETS A 50 AMP BREAKER AND PRESIDENT, BECAUSE THE GUY BACK, SHOWS HIM THE NEW ONE AND PASSES THAT MOVES ON TO THE NEXT ONE. SO I THINK THE BIG TICKET ABOUT THIS NEW SOFTWARE IS THAT IT IS ÃIT'S FOLLOWED WITH THE TIMES AND IT'S IN THE NEXT CENTURY AND IT CAN HELP US TO BECOME MORE EFFICIENT. WE GET CALLS EVERY DAY EVEN BEFORE THE COVID. WE GET CALLS ABOUT DIGITAL PLANS AND SUBMITTING STUFF ONLINE AND WE ARE JUST NOT THERE YET WITH WHERE WE ARE. I THINK THE SYSTEM THAT WE HAVE HAS LIVED HIS LIFE AND DONE A GOOD JOB WITH WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO, AND HONESTLY, IT'S JUST MORE EFFICIENT AND PROFESSION FOR CHOICE TEAM AND OUR TEAM TO PAY FOR SOMEBODY TO PROVIDE THE SYSTEM TO US. THIS IS MONEY THAT WOULD BE USED OUT OF THE NUMBER PRODUCT ENTERPRISE FUND AND ITS MONEY WE CREATE AND TO BE HONEST WITH YOU IT'S SOME MONEY WE HAVE GOT TO SPEND PER FLORIDA STATUTE OR THEY ARE GOING TO PROBABLY COME AND START TAKING IT FROM US, SO THIS IS GOING TO BE MONEY WELL SPENT MORE THAN ONE WAY IN OUR COMMUNITY

>> I HAVE A COMMENT TO MAKE. I THINK THE STAFF UNDERSTANDS THE COMMISSION GET A LITTLE

[00:40:06]

TIME FOR A SYSTEM IS BIG. THAT'S A GOOD THING FOR ME. >> THANK YOU.

AND I WILL ADD TO THAT WITH TROY'S WORK AND COURTNEY'S WORK WITH PIGGYBACKING ON ST. JOHNS WE GOT A BETTER DEAL THAN WE WERE INITIALLY TALKING WITH WITH TYLER WHEN WE WERE TALKING TO HIM INITIALLY ABOUT WHAT WE WANTED. ONCE WE GOT INTO THE GUTS OF ST. JOHNS THAT ALLOWED US TO GET A BETTER PRIE THAN WE WERE GETTING INITIALLY.

SO AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT HAS REALLY HELPED US IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE.

>> IS CALLED PURCHASING POWER. >> TROY, IF WE WENT WITH THIS, HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET

EVERYTHING TURNED OVER? >> A YEAR.>> THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT A YEAR.

THEY WILL COME IN AND EVALUATE THE WAY YOU REDO PROCESSES AND MAKE SURE THEY KNOW EVERYTHING THE WAY IT NEEDS TO BE SET UP AND BUILD OUR SYSTEM. I SHOULD NOT SAY BUILD THE SYSTEM. THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS I WANT TO SAY IS WITH THE CHANGING TO KEEP UP WITH THE BUILDING CODES AND THEY HAVE ST. JOHNS AND YOU WILL END THEY CAN QUICKLY

IMPLEMENT SOME CHANGES WE WENT TO MCLENNAN COUNTY SIGN. >> DO THEY CHARGE US BY THE VOLUME OF INSPECTIONS? OR HOW DO THEY ARRIVE AT A PRICE.

IT'S BASED ON THE NUMBER OF LICENSES WE USED SO IT'S THE NUMBER OF STAFF YOU HAVE DOING INSPECTIONS IN THE PLAN REVIEWS AND THE NUMBER OF STAFF YOU HAVE AND THE APPLICATION SUBMITTALS. AND HOW MUCH LICENSING THEY ARE USING.

ST. JOHNS WAS LARGER AND HAS A LARGER BILL THAN WHAT WE HAVE. WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF

AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR LICENSING PRICES >> SPEAKING OF PRICING, 645,000

IS THE PROGRAM FOR THE YEAR? >> LET ME PULL THAT UP REAL QUICK.

>> THE FIRST YEAR, YES SIR. AND THAT'S INCLUDING THE FIRST YEAR CONTRACT, THE IMPLEMENTATION, THE TRAVEL AND THEN EACH YEAR AFTER THAT IS ROUGHLY 250

>> 245. >> SO IT WOULD GO DOWN AFTER THE FIRST YEAR.

I GUESS THE FIRST YEAR WITH INSTALLATION IS MORE EXPENSIVE AND SHOULD DROP TO 240 OR 250

STARTING IN THE SECOND YEAR. >> YES, SIR. IF THE PRICE GOES UP WE WILL BUY MORE LICENSES AND THAT MEANS HOPEFULLY WE ARE DOING MORE BUSINESS.

>> WHAT'S THE WHOLE DEAL HERE FOR 10 YEARS. >> ROUGHLY $3 MILLION.

>> WE ARE LOOKING AT A $3 MILLION DEAL THAT WE WERE DONG IN AN EMERGENCY PURCHASE ORDER ON WE CAN'T WAIT TO MORE TO GET IT TO THE AUDIT COMMITTEE AND DO THIS BY THE NUMBERS.

AND THEN IF WE CAN, HOWEVER, WE DO WITH THE SHEER NUMBER THIS WAS GOING TO BE IT WAS GOING TO COME TO YOU GUYS ANYWAY. SO WE WANTED TO SAVE THAT TIME AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON OUR TEAMS AND OUR DEPARTMENTS WERE CLOSE TO SIX MONTHS AND TO BE HONEST, EVERY DAY MAKES A DIFFERENCE. IT'S GOING TO TAKE A WHOLE YEAR TO IMPLEMENT ANYWAY.

WE NEED TO GET SOME OF THOSE DOLLARS SPENT OUT OF OUR ENTERPRISE FUND DURING THIS

FISCAL YEAR.O THE WE CAN'T DO IT FOR LESS THAN 10? >> WE COULD DO IT FOR LESS THAN 10 AND WE ACTUALLY STARTED WITH CONVERSATIONS LESS THAN 10 AND AFTER CONVERSATION WITH OUR DEPARTMENT INTERNALLY WITH TYLER AND LOOKING AT WHAT ST. JOHNS AND SOME OF THE OTHERS ARE DOING, WE LANDED ON AND AS A BETTER ÃAS A BETTER DEAL FOR US ALL THE WAY AROUND AND WE

[00:45:05]

WE THINK IT'S GOING TO WORK OUT BETTER FOR US IN THE END. PLUS WITH THE DEAL WE GOT FROM

PIGGYBACKING ON ST. JOHNS, IT'S SAVING US A TON OF MONEY. >> FROM A CONTRACT STANDPOINT, ONE THING TO ADD TO THAT IS IF YOU'RE ORIGINALLY WE WERE LOOKING AT DOING IT MAY BE FOR FIVE OR EIGHT YEARS AND WHEN TYLER CAME BACK THE REVISIONS MY CONTRACT IF WE DID IT AND WE WANTED TO RENEW OUR RENEWAL OR EXTENSIONS, WE ARE GOING TO BE AT THEIR THEN EXISTING PRICES.

SO THAT'S WHY WE DECIDED TO FOLLOW ALONG WITH WHAT ST. JOHNS DID SO WE CAN LOCK IN

PRICES. >> DID EVERYONE HERE COURTNEY ANNA.

I WOULD ALSO SAY ONLY PURCHASING POLICY AND THE PIGGYBACKING, OUR PURCHASING POLICY SPECIFICALLY ALLOWS FOR PIGGYBACKING IN ORDER TO SAVE TIME AND ESPECIALLY THE HEAVY LIFT AS COMMISSIONER HUTCHINS STATED. ST. JOHNS COUNTY HAD RECENTLY DONE THAT HEAVY LIFT FOR US. THEY HAD SEVEN RESPONSES TO THEIR RFP SO IT WAS A VERY THOROUGH BID AND WE FELT VERY COMFORTABLE PIGGYBACKING ON IT. TRYING TO HURRY UP GOVERNMENT.

>> I WOULD MAKE ONE OTHER OBSERVATION. THE UPFRONT COST IS SO MUCH PROBABLY NOT A SWEET SPOT FINANCIALLY. TO DO IT FOR LESS THAN 10 EVEN EIGHT WOULD BE QUESTIONABLE BECAUSE IF YOU START OVER YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A BIG

UPFRONT COST IF YOU GO TO ANOTHER VENDOR. >> WE AGREE.

>> THE LAST TWO CONTRACTORS, LIKE THE DUPLE SYSTEM I DID NOT GET ANY STERLING REPORTS.

I STILL DON'T KNOW. I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO REALLY LOOK AT THIS

>> I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE FULLY IMPLEMENTED. THE CITY OF ST. JOHNS IS

IMPLEMENTING. >> THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME BENEFIT WHEN THE CONTRACTORS THAT DO WORK HAVE A REGIONAL PROGRAM AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO RELEARN IT FOR EACH COUNTY SO THERE'S GOT TO BE A BENEFIT TO THAT. I GUESS CONSISTENCY WOULD BE WHAT COMES TO MIND FOR THE CONTRACTORS IT ALSO SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL SAVE US MANPOWER AS WELL BECAUSE THERE'S LOTS OF DRIVING TIME GOING OUT INTO THE FIELD THAT YOU ARE CUTTING DOWN

ON IF YOU ARE DOING VIRTUAL MEETINGS. >> IT WILL HELP OUR GUYS AND NOW BECAUSE OF THE VIRUS WE HAVE ONE OF OUR INSPECTORS WHO HAD SOME HEART CONDITIONS.

HE'S DOING A LOT OF THOSE REMOTELY NOW. WE'VE GOT TO HAVE THEM AS AN INSPECTOR BUT WE ARE RESPECTFUL OF HIS PAST SURGERIES SO A LOT OF THE STUFF HE'S DOING IS THE SIMPLER INSPECTIONS AT THIS POINT IN TIME. IT'S WORKING GREAT FOR US AND

IN THE FUTURE I THINK IT WILL BECOME MORE IMPORTANT. >> THEY ARE NOT ONLINE YET.

THE CONTRACT WAS SIGNED MARCH 13 2019. WE ARE REALLY HAVE NO DATABASE O DRAW FROM AS FAR AS H THING IS WORKING FOR ANYONE

>> OUTSIDE OF THIS REGION THERE ARE PEOPLE USING IT DOWN IN SOUTH FLORIDA AND OTHER AREAS

OF THE COUNTY >> WHAT IS NOT TELLING US? >> THEY HAVE POSITIVE REVIEWS.

I THINK THE TEAM HAS TALKED TO SOME OF THEM. I KNOW WE HAVE TALKED TO A FEW OF THEM IN THE MIAMI AREA OF BROWARD COUNTY WHEN WE FIRST STARTED TALKING ABOUT THIS AND I'VE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH ST. JOHNS COUNTY ABOUT THE IMPLEMENTATION SINCE MY OLD

BOSS IS STILL OVER THERE AND THEY BEEN ASKING QUESTIONS >> THEY SAY IT'S A BIG DEAL OR

THEY HAVE PROBLEMS >> EVERYBODY THAT MY BUILDING GUYS HAVE SPOKEN TO LOVE THAT SYSTEM. I THINK IT'S DONE SOME GROWING TO GET SOME OF THEIR KINKS WORKED OUT AND I ALSO THEY BEEN DOING IT LONG ENOUGH THAT THEY HAVE JUST ABOUT FIGURED ALL THE ISSUES AND I AM REAL POSITIVE IS GOING TO DO A BIG JOB FOR US AND IT'S ALSO GOING TO HELP TROY'S GUYS TO TAKE CARE OF OTHER THINGS WITHOUT HAVING TO PDEAL WITH BILLY DEPARTMENT

STUFF ALL THE TIME. >> ARE THESE REVIEWS FROM THE CUSTOMER OR THE INTERNAL STAFF PEOPLE? MY GUYS HAVE STOPPED TALKED TO THE INTERNAL STAFF AND THEY ARE

EQUALS. >> WE KNOW IT'S PROBABLY OKAY FOR LESSONS INSIDE THE BOX BUT

[00:50:01]

TO ÃYOU KNOW WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS. >> MY THOUGHT ON IT IS I DON'T KNOW TYLER TECHNOLOGIES WHETHER THEY ARE GOOD OR BAD. I THINK IT MAKES SENSE TO UPGRADE THE TECHNOLOGIES ESPECIALLY SINCE WE HAVE THE MONEY IN THE ENTERPRISE FUND.

THE VIRTUAL ONLINE ALL OF IT MAKES SENSE BECAUSE ESPECIALLY IF THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS COMPLICATED CONTRACTORS CAN FIGURE THAT OUT HERE BECAUSE THEY BEEN DOING LOTS AND LOTS.

PER YOUR AVERAGE PERSON TRYING TO PULL A SMALL OVAL PROJECT MIGHT HAVE DIFFICULTY.

I DON'T HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE ON WHETHER THIS IS THE FIRM WE SHOULD GO WITH.

THE STAFF IS TELLING US THEY'VE DONE THE DUE DILIGENCE AND I WOULD DEFER TO THEM AND I THINK WE NEED TO UPGRADE THE TECHNOLOGY AND IT'S NOT MONEY COMING OUT OF THE GENERAL FUND THAT WE COULD SPEND ON OTHER THINGS AND IT'S DEDICATED AND HAVING TO GO TOWARDS THE

BUILDING FUNCTIONS. >> I THINK I HEAR WHAT COMMISSIONER EBOLA IS SAYING AND IS A LARGE PURCHASE. IT IS. BUT AT THE SAME TIME I NEVER HEARD THE CONTRACTOR I TALKED TO RECENTLY PRAISE US FOR THE SYSTEM TO HAVE.

OFTEN TIMES WE ARE LOOKING AT BEING COMPARED TO ST. JOHNS IN DUBOIS COUNTY AND BOTH OF THEM WITH THE CURRENT SYSTEMS, WAY AHEAD OF US. BEING ABLE TO UPGRADE CERTAINLY THAT'S NOT THE QUESTION. I THINK IT WILL MAKE US MORE EFFICIENT AND IN MANY CASES LESS LABOR-INTENSIVE AND CERTAINLY PROVIDE BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE.

IT CAN'T BE WORSE THAN WHERE WE ARE NOW. I MEAN, I THINK IT'S

[INDISCERNIBLE] WHAT'S THAT? >> CAN I QUOTE YOU ON THAT? >> YOU TALK TO AS MANY CONTRACTORS AS I DO. THEY ARE NOT REAL HAPPY WITH OUR SYSTEM IN THE SENSE IS LIMITED BY WHERE IT STARTED FROM AND WHERE IT IS THIS POINT IN TIME.

GUYS DO A GREAT TIME IN TRYING TO KEEP IT UP BUT AS TROY INDICATED JUST BUILDING CODE CHANGES AND THAT KIND OF STUFF. THE ONLY THING I WOULD LOOK AT, ORIGINALLY WE HAD BOOKS IT'S A $617,000 ONE YEAR TERM AND $42,500 POTENTIAL TRAVEL COST IN THERE AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT SOMEHOW BE ABLE TO NOT LET TYLER RIDE IF THEY HAD A WHOLE SECTION OF WHAT THEY CHARGE AND DON'T CHARGE. IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD MONITOR AND MAKE SURE THEY ARE DOING OR IN SOME CASES KEEP TABS ON THE RESERVATIONS AND TRAVEL BEFORE THEY GET HERE.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY FOR YEARS WORTH OF IMPLEMENTING.

I COULD BE WRONG ON THAT. >> WE WILL TRY TO DO AS MUCH OF IT VIRTUALLY AS WE CAN.

I KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN TALKING TO THEM ABOUT TROUBLE. THAT WAS NOT TO EXCEED, CRAIG

>> THAT WAS NOT TO EXCEED AND IT WAS GOING TO BE FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TRIPS IF NEEDED. THEY WOULD HAVE TO SUBMIT DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT.

>> QUESTION TROY AND CHEREESE. THIS IS REALLY NOT MY AREA OF EXPERTISE AND I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING NOSEK. IN YOUR OPINION WHAT I CAN GET IS THIS WORTH GOING?

>> I WOULDN'T PUT MY NAME ON IT. THE CODE WE'RE WORKING ON THIS 15-YEAR-OLD CODE IF WE CONTINUE GOING WE WILL NOT ÃWE HAVE LOOKED AT THAT REWRITING IT AND BRINGING IN CONTRACT WORKERS TO REWRITE IT. LANDED ON THIS BEING THE BEST LONG-TERM SOLUTION BECAUSE SOMEBODY ELSE WAS SUPPORTING IT AND THEY ARE DOING THE CHANGES AND THEY ARE MANAGING ALL OF THE STUFF AND ANYTHING WE NEEDED FOR THE SYSTEM.

>> LET ME ASK CHARLIE A QUESTION. SO $3 MILLION OVER 10 YEARS IS

[00:55:08]

WHAT? ABOUT 300,000 A YEAR? >> RIGHT.

THAT'S ABOUT THREE FULL-TIME PEOPLE. IS THAT THE KIND OF RESOURCE

YOU HAVE ON IT NOW RUNNING OUR OWN SYSTEM? >> WE DID NOT WRITE THE SYSTEM

FROM SCRATCH WE DID IT FROM ST. JOHNS >> WHAT DO WE HAVE NOW IN TERMS

OF RESOURCES? >> THREE OF MY STAFF OFTEN ON DOING IT AT DIFFERENT TIMES

BASICALLY KEEPING BAND-AIDS ON IT TO KEEP IT RUNNING. >> WE WOULD ASK YOU HOW MANY PEOPLE IF WE SPEND THIS $10 MILLION? AND I GUESS TERMS OF COUNTY SPEAK ABOUT 15 OF THOSE HOURS FOR MY PERSONAL HOURS I PUT IN ABOVE AND BEYOND TO KEEP US RUNNING ON NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS. THERE'S NOT A LOT OF IN THE COUNTY JEREMY WHO WORKS WITH ME IN PROGRAMS I ÃYOU WILL NEED A PROJECT MANAGER AND THEN MY OTHER PROGRAMMERS WORKING ON OTHER PROJECTS. LIKE REWRITING SOME OF THE SYSTEM WE USE.

SO I DON'T THINK I CAN LOSE ANY NOW WE'RE JUST GOING TO REASSIGN THE STAFF TO OTHER

PROJECTS. >> I THINK A GOOD QUESTION, LET ME JUST JUMP IN HERE BRO QUICK.

WHAT IS THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT. IF YOU ADDED UP ALL OF THE COSTS, YOU HAVE COST TO REWRITE THE PROGRAM COST TO MANAGE THE CURRENT PROGRAM AND WE DIDN'T EVEN DO ANYTHING.OU HAVE GASOLINE. YOU HAVE A LOT OF FACTORS THAT COME INTO PLAY IF YOU JUST LOOK AT THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT JUST IN TIME ALONE IN THE AMOUNT OF THOSE TIME THE TEAM MEMBERS ARE SPENDING ON THE PROJECTS AND INCLUDING THE IT SIDE AND THE INSPECTORS. MAYBE TROY AND CHEREESE CAN COMMENT ON THAT.

YOU ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR EFFICIENCIES WHEN IT COMES TO THE BOTTOM LINE AND THE DOLLAR.

THERE'S MANY WAYS TO GAIN THOSE DEFICIENCIES >> CHEREESE, THE SAME QUESTION WHAT'S THE IMPACT YOUR DEPARTMENT IN TERMS OF RESOURCES

>> TOUR TROY AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS TO THIS PROBLEM.

SO WE HAD ÃHONESTLY BEFORE WE LANDED ON TYLER AND BEFORE WE FIGURED TYLER OUT AND WHAT THE OPPORTUNITY THAT CAN BE, UNITED HAD THE DISCUSSION. WE ARE GOING TO ÃMY ENTERPRISE FUND WE WERE GOING TO FUND TWO OR THREE CONSULTANTS TO COMMON AND TOTALLY REWRITE THE PROGRAM. SO I WOULD SAY WE WOULD BE CLOSE TO ADD LEAST IN THE BEGINNING WHEN DOING THAT CONSULTANT AND GETTING THESE FOLKS TO REWRITE IT WE WOULD BE SPENDING THOSE SAME DOLLARS AND WE MAY NOT BE SPENDING 245,000 EVERY YEAR RECURRING.

BUT AS TROY SAID IT'S AN OLD SYSTEM. THESE GUYS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY THEM TO REWRITE AND I THINK WE WILL CONSTANTLY HAVE THEM ON CALL TO COME ÃTO CONTINUE TO IMPROVE THE WORK AND IMPROVE THE WORK. WE HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL OF TROY'S GUYS AND THEY WERE KIND OF DOING IT WHEN THEY CAN. THEY ARE TRYING TO KEEP ALL OF THE OTHER SOFTWARE PROGRAMS UP AND RUNNING AND WE HAD GOTTEN TO WHERE WE JUST NEEDED IT TO BE UPDATED WITH THE ONLINE AND ALL OF THAT GOOD STUFF. WE HAVE GOTTEN TO A POINT WHERE SOMETHING HAD TO HAPPEN WHETHER IT WAS TO HIRE CONSULTANTS OR GET A NEW PROGRAM.

>> HAD TO SPEND $25,000 REWRITING THE PROGRAM BECAUSE THERE WAS A CHANGE IN STATUTE.

THAT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF WHAT CHANGES CAN HAPPEN. >> SO TROY'S GUYS HAVE TO STOP EVERYTHING THEY ARE DOING AND PUT ALL THAT ASIDE TO PUT ANOTHER BAND-AID ON THE SKY.

AND BY THE WAY NEXT WEEK SOMETHING ELSE CHANGES. AND IT WILL BE NICE TO HAVE THOSE CONTRACT GUYS THROUGH TYLER TO DO ALL OF THAT THE GOOD THING IS WITH THEM WORKING

[01:00:06]

STATE OF FLORIDA. >> HOW ARE YOU WITH THE INSPECTOR SHORTAGE?

>> IF THIS DOES ANYTHING WILL HELP THEM TO BE MORE EFFICIENT BUT WE ARE STILL SO UNDERSTAFFED THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO ÃIT WILL BE A GREAT HELP FOR US, TO BE HONEST WITH

YOU. >> I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT ON THAT.

AND I HAVE NOT SAID ANYTHING EVEN TO CHEREESE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I KNOW YOU ARE UNDER STAFF BUT I HAVE COMPLAINTS THAT THE COUNTY IS JUST NOT DOING IT AS FAR AS GETTING OUT AND DOING THE INSPECTIONS AND EVERYTHING. SO ONE WAS A CONTRACTOR WORKING ON MY OWN ROOF. I COMPLAINED BECAUSE I KNEW YOU ALL WERE UNDERSTAFFED.

>> AND I WILL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE. TODAY, WE HAD AN INSPECTOR THAT IS OUT TODAY. WE HAVE INSPECTIONS WE HAVE GUYS WORKING TILL 7:00 OR 8:00 OR 9:00 TO GET THEM TAKEN CARE OF BUT WITH OUR GUY OUT TODAY AND WE HAD OVER 160 INSPECTIONS THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE, I HAVE FOUR GUYS HERE TODAY TO DO THEM.

WE GAVE 42 TO THE UNIVERSAL PROVIDER AND HOPEFULLY WHEN I GO BACK TO MY OFFICE I DON'T HAVE AN EMAIL FROM UNIVERSAL THAT SAYS THESE KICK SOME OF THOSE 42 BACK TO US.

I HAVE SOME UNASSIGNED INSPECTIONS TODAY BECAUSE WE JUST GOT TO GET SOME FOLKS.

SO WE ARE SO ÃWE HAVE GOT SO MANY INSPECTIONS TO DO THIS TYLER TECHNOLOGIES IS GOING TO

MAKE IT BETTER FOR US BUT WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK. >> THIS WILL NOT SAVE A NICKEL, BUT IT WILL IMPROVE OUR RESPONSE TIMES AND PUT SMILES ON THE FACES OF CONTRACTORS.

IS THAT CORRECT? >> THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND.

>> AND A CONSUMER NOT JUST THE CONTRACTOR. >> AND ITS FUTURE SAVINGS SO WE WON'T HAVE TO CONTINUE TO HIRE MORE AND MORE BECAUSE WE WILL BE MORE EFFICIENT WITH THE

PEOPLE WE HAVE. >> CAN I PUT YOU ON THAT? >> ANYTHING YOU OR TROY WANT TO

ADD BEFORE WE COME TO SOME DECISION ON THIS? >> NO, SIR.

NOT REALLY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS LET US KNOW.

>> ALL RIGHT, FOLKS. LAST CHANCE. QUESTIONS?

>> I MOVE THAT WE WAIVE THE PURCHASING POLICY AS IT APPLIES AND MOVE FORWARD ON THESE, THIS

TYLER SYSTEM >> I WILLSECOND THAT. >> THERE'S A MOTION IN A SECOND. WE WILL DO A ROLL CALL VOTE.

THANK YOU SO MUCH >> GOT IT. AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT EASY LIFTING FOR EURO. WE HOPE YOU ARE COMING UP WITH A PRODUCT THAT SERVES THE

[COUNTY MANAGER/CLERK OF THE BOARD]

NEEDED TO PRESENT. >> A FEW SLIDES IF YOU DON'T MIND.

THE COMMISSIONERS START OFF WITH EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE A BONNER SPRINGS A MAP OF FLORIDA

AND A TOTAL NUMBER OF CASES FOR FLORIDA. >> I THINK IT'S ON THE WAY.

THE NUMBER OF CASES IN THE GRAFT HERE FROM THE BEGINNING OF MARCH WE ARE NUMBER 48 YOU

[01:05:04]

WE ARE TRYING TO FOLLOW THE PRESIDENT'S GUIDELINES WITH THE GATING IN THE PHASE 3 APPROACH ON THAT AND THOSE SHOULD BE MORE TO FOLLOW FROM THE GOVERNOR HOPEFULLY HERE SOON.

FOR CLAYTON COUNTY SPECIFICALLY, AS YOU LOOK AT THE COUNTY 'S CASES BY COUNTY YOU ALL CAN SEE HERE ÃYOU CAN SEE HERE THE AGE DISTRIBUTION THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY AND WE ARE AT 272 POSITIVELY WENT UP ONE DAY OVER DAY AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THE NUMBER OF HOSPITALIZATIONS HERE IS THREE AND WE WENT UP SIX HOSPITALIZATIONS DAY OVER DAY AND THEN OF COURSE THE THE 14 DEATHS THAT ARE HERE. YOU CAN ALSO KIND OF SEE THE SPIKES ÃDID YOU WANT TO MAKE A COMMENT? AFTER THE END OF THE SOULMATE Ã YOU CAN DEFINITELY SEE HERE ON THE DAILY NUMBERS OF NEW CASES PER DAY THE SPIKES THAT ARE HERE AND WE WENT INTO THE FACILITIES TO TEST AND HAVE THOSE LARGE SPIKES IN THOSE FACILITIES. THIS IS A REALLY NICE GRAPHIC. IF THIS IS DATED TODAY, IT'S A DAILY GRAPHIC THAT COMES OUT. YOU CAN SEE THERE ARE 272 CASES.

YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THERE FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS HERE SINCE MAY 22 WE'VE BEEN HOLDING STEADY AT THREE AND WENT DOWN TO 1 AND A +2 AND A PLUS ONE FOR US TODAY.

YOU CAN SEE THE PERCENTAGE THAT ARE LISTED HERE. YOU CAN SEE RACE AND F NECESSITY AND DEATHS AND I THOUGHT THIS GRAPHIC WAS PRETTY INTERESTING RIGHT HERE FROM THE 14TH OF APRIL TO THE 27TH. THE NUMBER OF NEGATIVES, THE PERCENTAGE OF POSITIVE AND A NUMBER OF POSITIVES REALLY GOOD NEWS HERE AT THREE PERCENT ON THE PERCENTAGE OF POSITIVE SPIRIT AND DOWN BELOW, THIS IS A KEY INDICATOR AND FACTOR OF COST ÃEMISSIONS, THAT'S THAT WHAT THE PRESIDENT ALLUDES TO WORK THE DOWNWARD SLOPE AND WE CAN SEE IS FLATTENED OUT AND STAYED OUT. THAT'S THE INFLUENZA -LIKE SYMPTOMS. THE DAILY PERCENTAGE OF EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS THAT MENTION COUGH, FEVER OR SHORTNESS OF BREATH THOSE ARE THE THREE MAIN ITEMS YOU CAN SEE HOW THAT GOES THROUGH HERE, THE SHORTNESS OF BREATH IS THE PART THAT PANICS PEOPLE AND BRINGS THEM TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. THE CENTERS OF DISEASE CONTROL ADDED SIX ADDITIONAL SYMPTOMS TO BE AWARE OF AND I WILL PUT THOSE OUT NOW. IT'S CHILLS AND REPEATED SHAKING WITH CHILLS AND MUSCLE PAIN, HEADACHE, SORE THROAT AND LOSS OF TASTE AND SMELL.

THOSE ARE THE LATEST INFORMATION WITH REGARDS TO COVID-19 IN THE COUNTY.

ANY QUESTION. MOVING ON. SOME GOOD NEWS.

WHILE THE LIBRARIES HAVE BEEN CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC, WE ARE THE SECOND COUNTY TO ACHIEVE CULTURED CITY DESIGNATION, ONE IN SIX INDIVIDUALS HAS A CENTURY NEED AND OUR COUNTY HAS BEEN QUALIFIED FOR AND WE ARE VERY PROUD OF THAT. AND NOW WE ARE CERTIFIED FOR INCLUSIVE INDIVIDUALS WITH SENSORY NEEDS. SO I THOUGHT THAT WAS A REALLY NICE THING TO BRING UP. WITH REGARDS TO HUMAN SERVICES, OUR NUMBERS AND I'VE ASKED ANNA-LYSA TO EMAIL THIS TO YOU ALL DAILY. YOU CAN SEE THE NUMBER OF PRESS CONFERENCES THAT ARE THERE AND WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER ONE AT 1:00.

NUMBER OF PRESS RELEASES AND MEDIA CONTACTS AND SOCIAL MEDIA I WILL JUST POINT OUT HERE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE REACHED OVER 9.5, 9.6 MILLION PEOPLE. VISITED THE PAGE.

YOU CAN LOOK AT THE VIDEO VIEWS AND NOT IN THE WEBSITE USE 271,000.

I REALLY WANT TO POINT THIS NUMBER OUT HERE AND I WILL HIGHLIGHTED HERE.UMBERS OF MEALS SERVED WITHIN THE COUNTY CUTS THROUGH THE FOOD BANKS AND SENIOR CENTERS YOU CAN SEE THAT FROM MARCH 13 THROUGH APRIL 24 188,587 MEALS. HATS OFF TO THE VOLUNTEERS OUT THERE IN THE FOOD BANKS, THE DONATIONS THAT THE COUNTY HAS RECEIVED THE LATEST DONATION WAS FROM THE TOWN OF ORANGE PARK IN THE AMOUNT OF $10,000. THIS IS BEING USED TO PURCHASE NONPERISHABLE ITEMS AND I KNOW JOHN, TROY, VICTORIA, IS REALLY WORKING HARD ON GETTING THOSE

[01:10:08]

ANY QUESTION FOR ANYBODY WITH NUMBERS >> COMMUNICATION WITH THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND A STRONG RELATIONSHIP WE HAD. I WILL MENTION BRIEFLY I DON'T WANT TO STEAL ANY THUNDER FOR THE PRESS CONFERENCE BUT WE HAVE RECEIVED TEST KITS AND WE HAVE A COMMITMENT BY THE STATE TO PROVIDE 1000 TEST KITS A WEEK AND THERE WILL BE AN

ANNOUNCEMENT. MORE TO FOLLOW 1:00 TOMORROW. >> THAT'S GREAT NEWS

>> HEATHER DID FANTASTIC ON THAT. THAT'S ANOTHER GATE THAT THE PRESIDENT HAS TOLD US WE NEED TO CONDUCT MORE TESTING SO WE UNDERSTAND THE DATA.

I SAW THE COMMISSIONER HAD A QUESTION >> HOW CLOSE ARE WE TO GETTING MOST OF OUR NURSING HOME SITUATIONS TESTED TO 100 PERCENT?

>> THE GUIDANCE FROM TALLAHASSEE HAS BEEN ÃFROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH HAS BEEN TO TEST THOSE THAT HAVE A POSITIVE CASE INTEGRATED MEDICAL TEAM THAT IS HERE WITH A CREW OF 22 NURSES THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH THOSE FACILITIES THAT HAVE A POSITIVE IN THEM AND THE TESTING WAS CONDUCTED AND THOSE WERE THE SPIKES WITHIN THE DATA.

THEY ALSO ENSURE THEY UNDERSTOOD THE PROTOCOLS FOR INJURY IN TAKING CARE OF PATIENTS AND SOME THINGS HAVE IMPROVED A LONG NAP. BUT I DO WANT TO POINT OUT A LOT OF THIS IS DUE TO ASYMPTOMATIC. THE INDIVIDUAL DID NOT KNOW THEY HAVE THE VIRUS. THE OTHER ONES ÃWE HAVE APPROXIMATELY SIX MAIN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES IN THE COUNTY AND THE OTHER 24 OR SO HAVE BEEN TALKED TO AND HAVE BEEN GETTING GUIDANCE. NO MOVE TO TEST EVERYONE IN THIS FACILITY UNLESS A POSITIVE COMES UP. AGAIN, GUIDANCE FROM THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.

>> SO WE HAD DISCUSSED ÃWE HAVE SOMETHING ON THE ORDER OF 26 FACILITIES IN THE COUNTY

>> 30 TOTAL >> 30 TOTAL. OF THE 30, HOW MANY HAD A CASE?

>> IT WAS APPROXIMATELY FIVE OR SIX AND I HAD THAT OTHER SLIDE OUT.

I CLOSED IT. IT IS LISTED ON THE DAILY REPORT AND THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH'S WEBSITE. IT'S FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH COVID.

>> ON ÃWE HAVE 25 LETTER LETTER WE HAVE NOT DONE ANY TESTING.

IS THAT ABOUT RIGHT? THERE HAS NOT BEEN TESTING CONDUCTED IN A FACILITY UNLESS THERE IS THEY HAVE TESTED POSITIVE. THE FACILITY CAN GO ON ON THEIR OWN AND CONDUCT DURING TESTING WHICH THERE IS A FACILITY THAT PIS IN THE PROCESS OF DOING

THAT. >> THERE IS A REMAINING 25. >> YES, SIR.

OKAY.'M JUST TRYING TO THINK THIS THROUGH. I WAS ASKED WHAT KIND OF TESTING WE ARE DOING. ANY IDEA, MAYBE MR. PRICE, WHEN WE ARE GOING TO GET ONE OR TWO STANDARD DEVIATIONS AWAY FROM THE PEAK SO WE CAN DECLARE VICTORY HERE?

>> I HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE. >> I THINK ONE OF THE TOUGH PART ABOUT THIS IS THE DELAY IN TERMS OF THE RESULTS THEMSELVES. I THINK THAT'S PROBABLY ANYWHERE BETWEEN THREE AND FIVE MORE DAYS IN TERMS OF WHEN SOMEBODY GETS TESTED AND WE FINALLY GET THE RESULTS. WE HAVE WHITTLED BACK DOWN A BIT BUT I THINK THAT SOME OF THE REASON WE END UP IN SPIKES BECAUSE IT'S DIFFICULT TO TELL WHEN THESE TESTS WERE TAKEN.

IT COULD BE AS MUCH AS IN SOME CASES I TALKED TO PEOPLE THAT HAD SEVEN OR 10 DAYS OR MORE IN BETWEEN THE TIME THEY TOOK THE TEST AND GOT THE RESULTS. SO THE OTHER ASPECT TO THAT IS IF YOU HAVE A PERSON THAT IS A POSITIVE AND THEY RECOVER AND TAKE ANOTHER TEST.

THUS CONSIDERED TO BE A NUMBER OF CASES THAT MEANS WE THINK THAT'S TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE WHO JUST GOT TEST. SO THE TESTING I THINK IT'S GREAT WE HAVE IT.

A LOT OF FOLKS HAVE CALLED AND TALKED TO ME ABOUT WHY WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OFFER THE TESTING

AND IT'S NOTFOR THE LACK OF TRYING AND GETTING HERE. >> YES, SIR.

[01:15:04]

AND AS THE PRODUCTION IS STARTING TO RAMP UP WITH REGARDS TO THE TESTS, THE CAPACITY AT EACH ONE OF THE FACILITIES TO DO THAT WHETHER IT IS A GOVERNMENT OR CDC SITE OR ONE OF THESE COMMERCIAL SITES THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO TEST IT.

IF YOU REMEMBER EARLY AT THE BEGINNING IT TOOK 6 TO 8 DAYS SOMETIMES 10 DAYS TO GET RESULTS BACK AND WE ARE SEEING A BIG TURNAROUND ON THAT AND I CAN GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.

ST. VINCENT HAS A QUICK TURNAROUND TEST THAT THEY HAVE ORDERED AND THEY HAVE IN-HOUSE AVAILABLE. THE BOTTOM LINE FOR THE COMMUNITY IN ANY OF THE INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE THAT HAS ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS AND EVEN THE NEW SYMPTOMS THAT ARE OUT THERE YOU CONTACT YOUR MEDICAL CARE PROVIDER AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND THEY WILL GLADLY TEST YOU, AND THEY WILL HAVE THE AVAILABLE TESTS BEAR. THERE WAS A LOT OF FOCUS ON USING THE TESTS. AND THEN THE FINAL ONE IS ANTIBODY TESTING.

THE FDA LEANED TO A FACT OF OPENING THAT UP FULLY CHECKING IT BECAUSE WE NEEDED TO QUICKLY KIND OF GET THAT OUT. THAT'S KIND OF WORKING INTO THESE FALSE POSITIVES THAT ARE OUT THERE. JUST ON DATA THAT THEY BEEN LOOKING AT AND TAKEN A LOOK AT AND THERE'S 14 COMPANIES OUT THERE AND ABOUT THREE OF THEM THAT ARE DOING IT RIGHT.

THE REST OF THEM ARE HAVING HARD TIMES, AND PROCEDURES THEY ARE USING TO TEST FOR THOSE ANTIBODIES. THE CONFUSION HAPPENS BECAUSE IT'S A NOVEL CORONAVIRUS AND IS VERY SIMILAR TO INFLUENZA AND OTHERS. SO IF YOUR TEST IS NOT SPECIFIC ENOUGH FOR CORONAVIRUS, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE THAT FALSE POSITIVE.

SO JUST SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT ARE ONGOING AND I KNOW THE GOVERNOR ALONG WITH THE PRESIDENT AND THE OTHER STATES. THEY ARE DEFINITELY PUSHING FOR THIS ANTIBODY TESTING TO HELP US DETERMINE HOW PREVALENT THE VIRUS IS IN THE COMMUNITY AND WHETHER INDIVIDUALS HAVE BUILT UP IMMUNITY VIA ANTIBODIES. EVENTUALLY REACH THEM I HAD A COUPLE OF OTHER QUICK THINGS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT CORONAVIRUS?

>> ONE OTHER COMMENT. I THINK THE GOVERNOR SAID YESTERDAY AT HIS PRESS CONFERENCE MAY 1 MIAMI WAS GOING TO BE GETTING THE FIRST WAVE OF THE ANTIBODY TESTS, SUGGEST KIND OF A TIMELINE ON THAT. MORE COME IN AND MAKE FIRST IS WHEN THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO GET ON THE ANTIBODY CORRECT TESTS. ST. VINCENT SO WE DO A WEEKLY CALL WITH THE LOCAL HOSPITALS MEDICAL FACILITIES THEY ARE EXPECTING THEIR TEST IN HERE AND PROBABLY A WEEK AND 1/2. SOME OTHER THINGS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT CHEREESE TALKED ABOUT PERMITS OVER 1400 PERMITS SINCE WE STARTED THIS ON MARCH 13, AND MORE INSPECTORS ARE DOING 140 TO 160 INSPECTIONS PER DAY. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE KNEW THAT DEMAND SIGNAL THAT'S OUT THERE WE ARE OPEN FOR BUSINESS AND ITS THROUGH AN APPOINTMENT BUT WE ARE DEFINITELY SERVICING THE COMMUNITY AND KEEPING THINGS RUNNING ALONG. WE HAD AN ECONOMIC SUMMIT ABOUT A WEEK AND HALF AGO AND WE HAVE OUR ECONOMIC SUMMIT COMING UP ON FRIDAY AND WE ARE WORKING WITH THE CHAMBER AND THE CC D.A. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE AND LOCAL BUSINESS LEADERS CHEREESE IS LEADING UP.

[01:20:04]

KAREN FOUND A CONTRACTED WEST PALM BEACH THAT WAS JUST SIGNED ON MAY 5 ÃFEBRUARY 5, 2020.

>> SO THE AGREEMENT IS WITH PALM BEACH COUNTY AND AWARDED TO A CONSULTING GROUP AND THE CONTRACT WAS SET UP ON AN AS-NEEDED BASIS AND IT IS ISSUED THROUGH EACH SPECIFIC TASK IS ISSUED THROUGH A WORK ORDER WHICH IN THIS PROCESS COULD BE SIGNED BY THE COUNTY MANAGER AS WE DON'T ANTICIPATE ANY WORK ORDER TO GO OVER 25,000 WHICH IS HIS AUTHORITY LEVEL AND OUR PURCHASING POLICY. THERE ARE GRANTS COMING UP THAT WILL HELP US RECOUP SOME OF OUR FUNDS I WILL MENTION SOME OF THE DEADLINES ARE APPROACHING US QUICK SO WHAT ARE OTHER REQUEST FOR APPROVAL IS THAT WE CAN SUBMIT THOSE APPLICATIONS AND THEN BRING IT BACK TO THE OARD MEETING.HE XT AVAILABLE RATIFICATION ITEM.

LANGSTON CONSULTING DID CONSULTING FOR US IN THE PAST. THEY ARE FAMILIAR WITH OUR

OPERATION. >> CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE PROCESS WITH REGARD TO THE WORK ORDERS AND THE DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND THAT THAT WE WOULD BE MOVING FORWARD WITH?

>> EACH SPECIFIC GRANT APPLICATION WOULD BE ISSUED UNDER AN INDIVIDUAL WORK ORDER AND THOSE WILL BE NEGOTIATED PER THE AGREEMENT. AS I SAID WE DON'T ANTICIPATE THEM TO EXCEED 25,000 OR COME CLOSE TO THAT AMOUNT. THE COUNTY MANAGER HAS THE AUTHORITY TO SIGN THOSE. SIMILAR TO WHAT WE DO ON OUR CONTINUING CONTRACT.

>> DID YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THAT, COURTNEY? >> NOW.

>> SOME OF THE GRANTS THAT ARE OUT THERE WE HAVE A 10 PAGE DOCUMENT.

FEMA THE EMERGENCY FOOD AND SHELTER PROGRAM, FEMA MANAGEMENT PERFORMANCE GRANTS AND I KNOW THERE IS A FIRE GRANT THAT'S OUT THERE THAT'S DUE ON MAY 15 AS AN EXAMPLE.

IT HAS TO BE SUBMITTED, CORRECT? >> CORRECT.

THERE'S A BUNCH OF OTHER ONES THAT ARE ON ERE. THERE IS A HUD, A FEW OF THEM THAT ARE ON HERE. AND SOME OTHERS. SO LOOKING FORWARD AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THIS GRANT MONEY THAT'S OUT THERE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE PEOPLE WERE'S GUIDANCE AND POSSIBLE CONSENSUS TO MOVE FORWARD WITH APPLYING FOR THESE REIMBURSEMENTS THROUGH THIS

CONTRACT THROUGH LINKEDIN. >> I WOULD JUST SAY FREE MONEY IS GREAT.ITH EVERY ONE OF THOSE THEY EXPECT SOMETHING OR THEY WOULD NOT BE GIVING MONEY AWAY.

I KNOW WAS I WAS ON THE SCHOOL BOARD, WE HAD HALF POSITIONS JUST MONITORING SOME OF THESE REALLY HOOKED UP GRANTS OR THEY ARE LOOKING FOR REPORTING BACK AND A LOT OF OTHER STUFF SO JUST KEEP AN EYE ON WHAT WE ARE ACTUALLY BUYING HER MOMMY ASKED FOR THE FREE MONEY.

>> I THINK LAUREN IS ALSO UP. MAYBE YOU COULD GIVE SPECIFICS ON THE FIRE ONE THAT WOULD GIVE

THE BOARD SOME INSIGHT ON THAT SPECIFIC ONE. >> I CAN, SIR.

THE GRANT IS THE ASSISTANCE TO FIREFIGHTERS GRANT. THE GOAL OF IT WILL BE TO

[01:25:06]

I THINK IT OPENED TODAY. WE HAVE A VERY SHORT-TERM TO GATHER THE COSTS MAKE APPLICATION AND THEN HOPEFULLY GET A WORD AND SO WE CAN GET REIMBURSED.

>> AND THE OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? >> I KNOW YOU AND I ÃI BROUGHT THAT UP TO YOU BECAUSE I WAS GETTING BOMBARDED WITH ALL OF THESE GRANT OPPORTUNITIES IN A COUPLE YOU HAVE NOT MENTIONED FROM THE STATE. THE FACILITIES AND ONE WAS HAD TO DO WITH JOBS AND SMALL BUSINESSES. WE HAD TALKED ABOUT IT AND THE PROBLEM WITH THESE GRANTS AS THEY COME UP QUICKLY AND PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND GET THEIR APPLICATIONS IN. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS AND EVEN MILLIONS. THERE MAY ALSO BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR US WHEN THEY MOVED TO THE NEXT LEVEL IN PTERMS OF A TEARS ACT AND A PHASE OF 3.754 4.0 OR WHATEVER THEY'VE GOTTEN UP TO ADD THIS POINT IN TERMS OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND CERTAINLY WE WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO BE PRESENT AND VISIBLE SO WE CAN GET OUR SHARE OF WHATEVER IS AVAILABLE AND SOMETIMES I THINK YOU NEED TO GO OUTSIDE JUST THE WAY THESE THINGS COME UP AND ALL OF THE THINGS GOING ON SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER TO HAVE SOMEBODY THERE TO TAKE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF MAKING SURE WE GET INTO GET SOME OF THAT PIECE OF WHATEVER'S BEING GIVEN

AWAY. >> YES, SIR. >> SO I THINK I AM WORKING ON LEGAL TERMS AND JUST HAVE USED THE PURCHASING POLICY PROCEDURES DEEP WITHIN THE GUIDELINES THAT I HAVE THEIR AND THEN BRING IT UP FOR A RESOLUTION AND A VOTE.

P>> KAREN AND I HAVE DISCUSSED IT AND WE WOULD PIGGYBACK WITH THE PALM BEACH AGREEMENT AND YOU WOULD JUST ENTER INTO WORK ORDERS AND AS WE ANTICIPATE EACH PROJECT WOULD BE MOVING

THE THRESHOLD AND YOU WOULD MOVE FORWARD >> I DON'T FEEL I NEED A VOTE.

>> JUST CONSENSUS. >> I HAD ÃWILL BE ON 5 MAY. >> TWO DEPARTMENTS LEFT TO TAKE A LOOK AT AND I HAVE ÃAND HE'S COMING IN FLAT AND POSSIBLY IF HE RECEIVED GRANTS HE MAY BE SAVING US APPROXIMATELY A FOURTH MILLION. GOOD THINGS ARE HEADING THAT SHOWS US WHY THE GRANTS ARE SO IMPORTANT. I HAD A MEETING ON MAY 8 WITH THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE AND THE CLERK OF THE COURT TO DISCUSS AND MOVE FORWARD.

AND THAT'S ALL I HAD. >> I KNOW THE GOVERNOR IS GOING TO COME UP WITH A GAME PLAN BECAUSE THAT'S THE EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT ALLOWS US TO WE HAVE A PLAN B WHEN IT ÃON THE LEGAL SIDE COURTNEY WE WILL TAKE A LOOK AT THAT AND OUR FLEXIBILITY PASSED MAY 8 AND I WILL LET COURTNEY BRIEF THAT IN SOME THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT. WHEN THE GOVERNOR MAKES HIS PRESENTATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE REOPENING WHICH APPARENTLY HE IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT TOMORROW, THAT THEY WILL MAKE A DECISION AT THAT TIME ON WHETHER TO EXTEND THE MAY 8 ORDER OR NOT. THE COUNTY MANAGER AND I DISCUSSED THAT IF THAT DOESN'T

[01:30:23]

TOMORROW? >> NOW. I HAD JUST SEEN RIGHT BEFORE WE

HOPPED ON IT WAS GOING TO BE IN THE MORNING. >> OKAY.

THE FIRST PART OF THE DAY. >> ANYTHING ELSE, COUNTY MANAGER?

>> JUST A MEDIA REQUEST ABOUT CONSENSUS ON THE GRANT AND THE GRANT CONTRACT.

>> OKAY. WHAT'S YOUR PLEASURE ON THE GRANT?

>> IF YOU DON'T APPLY, YOU CAN'T GET IT.O WE ARE ALL FOR APPLYING.

>> I WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT THAT ALSO. >> I SUPPORT IT.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE GOOD TO GO. LET'S CALL ON MIKE. HE HAD AN ITEM HE WANTED TO

JUMP IN ON. PARE YOU STILL THERE? >> I AM STILL HERE BUT IT'S

VERY BEEN DECIDED. >> WELL, WAS IT DECIDED WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE OR A FROWN?

>> I'M ALWAYS FROWNING. THE CHAIRMAN THOUGHT THAT THESE ISSUES GO A LITTLE BIT MORE SMOOTHLY WHEN I'M NOT HELPING AS MUCH. WELL, ALL RIGHT.

I'M SURE IF IT WAS ANY IMPORTANCE ATTACHED TO IT YOU WOULD BE SPEAKING TO US.

HOPEFULLY WE GOT PAST YOUR MASTER. OKAY.

[COUNTY ATTORNEY]

COUNTY ATTORNEY. ADAM? >> [INDISCERNIBLE] WE WILL MOVE

[15.  Appointment of Bradley Shumaker to the Health Planning Council of Northeast Florida]

WHAT'S THE WORD'S PLEASURE ON THIS > I WILL MOVE IN APPROVAL

>> IS THERE A SECOND? ? DO WE HAVE ANYONE OUT THERE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT AT THIS TIME?

[COMMISSIONERS' COMMENTS]

>> NO, WE DO NOT. >> NO PUBLIC COMMENT. WE WILL MOVE RIGHT ON TO THE COMMISSIONERS COMMENTS. WE WILL START WITH HUTCHINS. YES, MA'AM.

>> I WANTED TO BRING UP THE LETTER THAT WE RECEIVED FROM SENATOR BRADLEY ASKING IF WE HAD ANY PRIORITIES. OF COURSE MY TOP PRIORITY IS NONE OF OUR TRANSPORTATION REQUEST GET REDUCED OR SCRUBBED BUT BESIDES THAT I JUST WONDERED IF THERE WAS ANYTHING

ELSE WE WANTED TO WEIGH IN ON. >> WELL, THEY ARE ALL WORTHY PRODUCTS BUT I'M STILL THINKING WE NEED TO GET OUR OLD COURTHOUSE FIXED. THAT THING IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE MAINTAIN OUR HISTORY. SO THAT WOULD BE ON THE TOP OF MY LIST.

>> OTHER COMMISSIONERS? >> I WAS GOING TO BRING THAT UP AS WELL.

I'M GLAD YOU BEAT ME TO THE PUNCH. I COLOR-CODED MY LIST AND ESSENTIALLY THE INFRASTRUCTURE ROADS AND ALSO FIRE STATION IS SOMETHING AS WELL AS THE AGENCIES THAT WE SEE GET FUNDED EVERY YEAR I HATE TO SEE THEM END UP NOT HAVING THOSE.

THERE ARE A FEW THAT PROBABLY DON'T MAKE THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE NEW OR WHAT HAVE YOU BUT

THAT'S WHERE I STRIKE THEM DOWN ON IT. >> I DID TALK TO REPRESENTATIVE, SON AND HE DID SEEM TO THINK THAT INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SAFETY PROBABLY WOULD MAKE IT THROUGH. HOPEFULLY WE WILL KEEP OUR

FINGERS CROSSED. >> IF YOU CAN'T DRIVE ON IT, I DON'T NEED IT.

[01:35:09]

>> IF WE HAD A DECENT BUS SYSTEM IN THE COUNTY >> THE CAVEAT IS GETTING PEOPLE

TO USE THEM. >> YOU ARE JUST GOING TO PAY FOR THE BUS AS OPPOSED TO THE ROAD. WE ARE STILL SPENDING MONEY ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

>> BUT A LOT LESS. >> I CONCUR WITH IT BEING CRITICAL AND PUBLIC SAFETY.

>> OKAY. >> DO WE NEED TO COMMUNICATE THESE TO SENATOR BRADLEY?

IT SOUNDED LIKE HE WAS LOOKING FOR A RESPONSE. >> I WOULD THINK NOT ONLY TO

SENATOR BRADLEY BUT REPRESENTATIVE BRADLEY >> AND REPRESENTATIVE PAIN.

>> YES. THANK YOU. >> IS THAT SOMETHING THAT

COUNTY MANAGER MR. WANAMAKER COULD DO FOR US? >> YES.

I'VE BEEN WRITING THEM DOWN. >> DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE COMMENTS?

>> NO >> YOU JUMP RIGHT INTO IT I WAS GOING TO COUNT ON SOMEBODY ELSE

SO I COULD GET MY THOUGHTS TOGETHER >> WE CAN MOVE ON AND COME BACK

TO >> THAT'S ALL RIGHT. WE WILL PLUNGE RIGHT AHEAD.

WE KNOW THAT YOU PROBABLY HAVE A DINNER DATE WAITING FOR YOU. I JUST ÃI WOULD LIKE AS ALWAYS IT'S EASY FOR US TO TAKE FOR GRANTED THE WORK THE STAFF HAS DONE OVER THE PAST 30 OR 45 DAYS, 60 DAYS. WE ARE WORKING WEEKENDS AND EVENINGS AT THE EEOC.

THEY HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB. HOWARD IS IN A REALLY GOOD JOB OF MAKING SURE WE ARE ALL INFORMED AS TO WHERE WE ARE GOING OR HOW WE ARE GOING AND HOW WE WILL GET THERE.

I JUST THINK THAT I'M VERY PROUD OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE AND CRITICAL DECISIONS HAVE TO BE MADE YET IN TERMS OF UNPACKING AND MOVING AHEAD TO OPEN UP THINGS THAT WILL COME AS Ã REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE GOVERNOR AND THE REST OF THE STATE DOES. BUT I THINK OUR FIRST RESPONDERS, SHERIFF'S OFFICE, THE DEPUTIES AND MEDICAL PERSONNEL I DON'T THINK ANYBODY CAN BE MORE PROUD OF WHAT WE'VE DONE IS A COUNTY TOGETHER AND WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT GOD'S

VOICE. >> IT'S ÃEVERYONE IS READING THEIR HANDS BUT I'M PRETTY PROUD OF THE WAY WE BEGAN THIS. I DON'T THINK THE COUNTY OR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR THE STATE COULD HAVE DONE MUCH BETTER UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES. I HAD ONE THING FOR THE COUNTY MANAGER. WHEN WE FIRST HIRED YOU ON, I ASKED FOR AN ORGANIZATION CHART

I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT'S COMING AND I'M REMINDING YOU. >> YES, SIR I HAVE A DRAFT UP

ON MY WALL. >> GAVE ME A PEEK TOMORROW. SEND SOMETHING OUT SO WE CAN Ã EVERY TIME WE HIRE SOMEBODY WE HAVE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT HOW TIGHT WE ARE IN PERSONNEL.
