THAT I'M DULY QUALIFIED TO HOLD OFFICE. UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE AND THE CHARTER OF THE CITY OF PARKLAND AND THAT I WILL WELL AND FAITHFULLY PERFORM THE DUTIES OF A BOARD MEMBER OF THE PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD.

>> OKAY. MOVING ON TO ORIENTATION.
>> WELCOME, EVERYONE. I'M STEPHANIE, THE DEPUTY CITY CLERK. ALISON, OUR CITY CLERK PROVIDE A LITTLE WELCOME PACKET FOR YOU WITH INFORMATION THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL. I CAN BRIEFLY GO OVER IT WITH YOU AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT ANY TIME, FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT TO THE CLERK'S OFFICE OR STAFF.
THE CLERK'S OFFICE PROVIDES RECORDING AND ASSISTANCE TO OUR ADVISORY BOARDS WITH MEETING PREPARATIONS.
WE COMPILED THE AGENDAS AND THE PACKETS.
WE TRANSCRIBE MINUTES. WE PREPARE AND POST THE MEETING NOTICES. AND WE CAN ALSO ADMINISTER THE OATH OF OFFICE. CHRIS?
THE CLICKER IS NOT WORKING. >> THANKS.
SO WHAT ABOUT THE SUNSHINE LAW? WHAT ARE THE PACIC REQUIREMENTS? ... BASIC REQUIREMENTS? MEETINGS MUST BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. REASONABLE NOTICE MUST BE POSTED. MINUTES MUST BE TAKEN.
THE MINUTES BECOME THE PERMANENT RECORD OF EVERY PUBLIC MEETING.
OKAY. DOES THIS ONLY APPLY TO THE COMMISSION? THE SUNSHINE LAW APPLIES TO ADVISORY BOARDS AS WELL. IT APPLIES TO ANY GATHERING OF TWO OR MORE MEMBERS OF THE SAME BOARD DISCUSSING BUSINESS THAT COULD COME BEFORE THE BOARD TO BE VOTED ON.
EVEN THOUGH MEMBERS OF THIS BOARD ARE ADVISING AND MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE COMMISSION, THE SUNSHINE LAW STILL APPLIES. THANK YOU.
SO THE... DID WE DO THE SUNSHINE LAW? THE SUNSHINE LAW... LET ME SEE. THE SUNSHINE LAW APPLIES TO ANY GATHERING OF TWO OR MORE MEMBERS OF THE SAME BOARD DISCUSSING BUSINESS THAT COULD COME BEFORE THE BOARD FOR ANY VOTE.
SO EVEN THOUGH THESE MEMBERS ARE ONLY MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS, IT IS SUNSHINE LAW DOES STILL APPLY.
IT IS SUNSHINE LAW IS... APPLIES TO ANY MATTER OF BUSINESS THAT MAY COME BEFORE THE BOARD FOR A VOTE, ANY GATHERING LIKE FORMAL OR INFORMAL OF TWO OR MORE MEMBERS OF THE SAME BOARD.
IF THE CONVERSATION OR COMMUNICATION IS NOT BEING RECORDED AT A PUBLIC MEETING, YOU SHOULD NOT BE DISCUSSING IT WITH ANOTHER BOARD MEMBER. YOU CAN REACH OUT TO COMMISSION.
YOU CAN REACH OUT TO STAFF. YOU CAN'T TALK ACROSS THE DESK WITH THE SAME PEOPLE. SO WHAT IS A PUBLIC RECORD? ANY MATERIAL REGARDLESS OF FORMAT MADE OR RECEIVED IN CONNECTION WITH OFFICIAL CITY BUSINESS.
EVEN SOCIAL MEDIA PERTAINING TO CITY BUSINESS, TEXT MESSAGES,
[00:05:04]
EMAILS, THAT CAN ALL BE A PUBLIC RECORD.YOU ARE FREE TO TAKE NOTES. LIKE JENNIFER ASKED.
ONCE YOU SHARE SOMETHING, THEN IT BECOMES A PUBLIC RECORD.
IF YOU ARE JUST TAKING NOTES FOR YOURSELF, THAT WOULD NOT BE A PUBLIC RECORD. MAKING A MOTION, SO BASICALLY, A BOARD MEMBER CAN JUST SAY "I MAKE A MOTION." AND THEY WOULD STATE THEIR MOTION.
SOMETIMES THE CHAIR MIGHT ASK FOR A MOTION.
ANOTHER BOARD MEMBER CAN SECOND SIMPLY BY SAYING "SECOND." WHEN THEY SECOND A MOTION, IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT THEY ARE IN FAVOR OF IT. THEY MAY JUST BE MOVING IT ON TO DISCUSSION OR FOR A VOTE. AND THEN WE WOULD ASK THE CHAIR WHEN A MOTION IS MADE, TO SAY "MOTION BY SANDRA.
SECOND BY CASEY." SOMETIMES WE ASK YOU TO STATE THE MOTION WORD FOR WORD SO WE HAVE A RECORD.
AFTER THE MOTIONS WERE MADE AND THE DISCUSSION IS DONE, THE CHAIR WOULD ASK FOR A VOTE. HE WOULD SAY, ALL IN FAVOR, ANY OPPOSED. THEN HE WOULD ANNOUNCE THE RESULT. HE WOULD SAY "IT PASSES UNANIMOUSLY OR 5-2." THAT IS ALL THAT THE CITY CLERK PUT TOGETHER FOR US. WE HOPE THAT YOU ENJOY YOUR TIME ON THE BOARD. THANK YOU ALL FOR VOLUNTEERING
TO SERVE. >> THANKS, STEPHANIE.

GOOD EVENING. JUST WANTED TO WISH EVERYONE A HAPPY NEW YEAR. I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH EACH OF YOU. I WANTED TO THANK VICE MAYOR BRIER FOR THE APPOINTMENT. AND THANK THE MAYOR, THE CITY COMMISSIONERS, AND THE CITY STAFF.
I THINK THEY HAVE DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB PROVIDING LEADERSHIP IN THIS AREA. WITHIN THE COMMIT'S' PURVIEW.
HAVING LIVED IN PARKLAND FOR THE LAST TEN YEARS WITH MY WIFE RACHEL, MY DAUGHTER MALLORY WHO IS 14 AND BLAKE WHO IS 12, WE HAVE CERTAINLY ENJOYED THE CITY PROGRAMMING.
WE HAVE SPENT MANY DAYS AND F WEEKENDS AT THE CITY PARKS.

NEW BUSINESS. SINCE IT IS A NEW TERM, WE HAVE
[00:10:04]
ALL THE POSITIONS FOR CHAIR AND VICE-CHAIR OPEN.WE ARE GOING TO MOVE TO DISCUSSION TO SEE IF THERE IS
ANYONE INTERESTEDMENT. >> I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY, BASED ON HOWARD'S EXCEPTIONALLY LONG TENURE ON THIS COMMITTEE AND THE ABLE JOB HE DID AS CHAIR FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS, I WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT HIM REMAINING AS CHAIR IF HE CHOOSES TO DO...
I'M SORRY. I FORMALLY NOMINATE HOWARD
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? I THINK I STILL HAVE TO PUT IT... (LAUGHTER) I'LL GLADLY ACCEPT.
IF THERE WAS ANYONE ELSE WHO WAS INTERESTED, I DO WANT TO GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO, YOU KNOW, TO SEE IF THEY WANT TO BE NOMINATED. I GUESS WE COULD HAVE SOME DISCUSSION OUT THERE. IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE? I GUESS WE CAN CONTINUE WITH THE VOTE.
(LAUGHTER) THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I APPRECIATE IT.
IT PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. ALL RIGHT.
WE ARE GOING TO OPEN UP DISCUSSIONS FOR VICE-CHAIR.
AND SINCE YOU INDULGE THE FAVOR OF NOMINATING ME, I WOULD LIKE TO PASS ALONG THAT FAVOR AND NOMINATE THE GENTLEMAN AT THE
END HERE AS THE VICE-CHAIR. >> SECOND THAT.
>> CONGRATULATIONS. WELCOME TO VICE-CHAIR.
THANK YOU. >> PLEASE ATTEND ALL THE
IN YOUR... IN THE PACKET, WE'VE GOT SOME DATES THAT WE HAVE TO GO OVER. AS YOU KNOW, WE MEET EVERY OTHER MONTH. SO LOOK OVER THE DATES.
ALSO WE KNOW IN JULY, THAT IS SORT OF AN OPEN DATE.
IT IS THERE AS A PLACE-HOLDER. IN THE EVENT THAT WE HAVE SOME ACTION ITEMS OR THINGS THAT WE NEED TO DISCUSS, JUST LOOK IT OVER. AND IF THOSE DATES LOOK GOOD, WE JUST NEED A MOTION TO APPROVE THE DATES AND A SECOND.
>> JUST FOR CLARITY PURPOSES, JULY 3 IS GOING TO BE A MEETING DATE. YOU GUYS COULD HAVE DISCUSSION ABOUT IT IF THAT IS TOO CLOSE TO THE HOLIDAY.
WHATEVER. THE PLEASURE OF YOU GUYS SERVING ON THE BOARD WOULD LIKE TO DO. AND HAVE MAYBE SOME DISCUSSION TO KEEP THE SCHEDULE AS IS OR IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE ANY AMENDMENTS. I WOULD HAVE TO BE PART OF YOUR
MOTION. >> THE FOURTH IS SA TUESDAY.
>> THE GOVERNMENT EMPLOY EASY ARE OFF MONDAY AND TUESDAY? HOW UN-AMERICAN. (LAUGHTER).
>> YOU ARE HERE WEDNESDAY. >> I THINK THE THIRD MAY BE PROBLEMATIC. (LAUGHTER).
>> I WAS SAYING I THINK THE THIRD WOULD BE PROBLEMATIC.
>> I ACTUALLY AGREE. I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE SU SUMMER. PEOPLE ARE MAYBE TRAVELING.
I KNOW I'LL BE TRAVELING. SO IT IS PERHAPS NOT THE BEST
DATE. >> WOULD THERE BE AN ALTERNATE
DATE AVAILABLE? >> UNFORTUNATELY, I DID LOOK AT THE MONOOF JULY. WE ARE DOING SOME WORK TO OUR CHAMBERS STARTING AFTER THAT SUMMER BREAK AND SUMMER SESSION.
SO WE WOULD BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE MEETING ANYTHING LATER THAN THAT. YOU COULD TAKE THE MONTH OFF.
AS WE GET CLOSER, IF THE BOARD IS WORKING ON A PROJECT AND FEELS WE NEED TO LOOK AT SOME ALTERNATIVE DATES, I COULD BRING ADDITIONAL DATES AT THAT TIME TO YOU GUYS.
IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU NEED TO HAVE A MEETING.
OR YOU COULD SKIP THAT MEETING ALTOGETHER.
>> I GUESS THE MEETING PRIOR TO THAT, WE CAN TAKE A LOOK AND SAY, ALL RIGHT, WE WILL SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER.
>> OR WE CAN APPROVE THE SCHEDULE WITHOUT THE JULY 3 MEETING TONIGHT? THEY HAVE TO PUBLICIZE IT.
I THINK IF WE THINK WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE IT, WE SHOULD SAY
THAT AND THEN... >> ALL RIGHT.
WE WOULD NEED A MOTION TO REMOVE THAT DATE.
>> YES. THAT IS WHAT I'M SAYING.

WE NEED A MOTION TO REMOVE THAT DATE FROM THE...

[00:15:02]
>> SECOND THAT. >> ALL THOSE IN FAVOR?
>> YEAH. AT THE MAY MEETING, IF WE ARE WORKING ON SOMETHING, WE MAY HAVE SOME AVAILABILITY IN JUNE OR WHATEVER. AS LONG AS WE GIVE THE CITY CLERKS 48-72 HOURS NOTICE. WHATEVER THE REQUIREMENT IS.
>> IF WE WANT TO PUT IN A WATER PARK OR SOMETHING.
>> OR TOP GOLF HERE SOMEWHERE. (LAUGHTER) OKAY.
PARK AND RECREATION GENERAL UPDATES.
THAT IS CHRISTINE. TAKE IT AWAY.
>> SO WELCOME. I'M GLAD THAT YOU GUYS HAVE ALL VOLUNTEERED YOUR TIME AS YOU GUYS HAVE AN IMPORTANT ROLE TO WORK TOGETHER WITH OUR STAFF. I WANT TO FIRST START OFF INTRODUCING OUR STAFF FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW OR MAY NOT KNOW US. I'M CHRISTINE GARCIA.
I'M THE SENIOR OF PARK OPERATIONS.
USUALLY, I BRING MY MANAGEMENT TEAM WITH ME.
I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE SCOTT HARRISON.
HE IS OUR ASSISTANT DIRECTOR. WE ALSO HAVE NICK WILLIAMS WHO WAS RECENTLY PROMOTED TO OUR MANAGER ROLE.
HE IS OUR PARKS AND RECREATION MANAGER.
AND THEN SITTING BEHIND NICK IS NATALIE.
SHE IS NEW TO OUR TEAM. SHE PRESUMED NICK'S ROLE INTO OUR EVENT WORLD. SHE IS OUR PARKS AND RECREATION COORDINATOR. WELCOME, NATALIE.
A LOT OF YOU GUYS WERE ON THE BOARD AND SO FORTH.
FOR THOSE WHO ARE NEW COMING IN, I WANT YOU TWICE TO ALSO BE AWARE. I SENT THIS OUT IN THE EMAIL LAST WEEK. WE DO HAVE OUR PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN. IT IS A PRETTY EXTENSIVE THICK BOOK. WHEN YOU WANT SOME PLEASURE-READING, DIP INTO IT. THERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT PAGES YOU MAY WANT TO SKIM THROUGH IN REGARDS TO SOME RECOMMENDATIONS.
BOTH ON THE PROGRAM SIDE AS WELL AS PARK SIDE.
YOU WILL SEE A LIST OF ALL THE PARK AMENITIES AND WHERE THERE MAY BE SOME SHORTAGES AND SO FORTH FOR A CITY OF OUR SIZE AND MAGNITUDE. YOU COULD GO AHEAD, AND THAT KIND OF GIVES US THE DIRECTION OF WHERE WE WERE MOVING FORWARD.
IT IS A GUIDE THAT WE USE DURING STRATEGIC PLANNING WITH OUR COMMISSION. AND SO THEREFORE, WE COULD HELP GUIDE TO MAKE THOSE DECISIONS IN REGARDS TO OUR PARK AND PARK IMPROVEMENTS THROUGHOUT EACH BUDGET CYCLE.
ALSO IN FRONT OF YOU, IT IS A HANDBOOK THAT WE HAVE PREPARED.
JUST REAL QUICK, I WANT TO GO THROUGH IT SO YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND ALL THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE.
YOU CAN READ AT YOUR LEISURE. THE FIRST THING ON TAB ONE IS BASICALLY, JUST A BACKGROUND OF THE PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT. IT TALKS ABOUT OUR MISSION STATEMENT. WHAT OUR SERVICES ARE.
I ALSO PROVIDED YOU GUYS A LIST, A MAP OF CITY PARKS AND CITY PATHWAYS. I'M SURE YOU ALL KNOW WHERE THEY ARE, THOUGH. AND THEN ALSO I PROVIDED OUR ORGANIZATIONAL CHART THAT YOU COULD KIND OF SEE THE BREAKDOWN AND WHAT AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY WE HAVE.
THE NEXT PAGE AFTER THAT IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
IT IS PHONE NUMBERS AND CONTACT INFORMATION.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS IN BETWEEN MEETINGS AT ANY GIVEN ANY ONE OF US. AND YOU COULD ALWAYS REACH OUT TO ME AS WELL. I THINK I PROVIDED MOST OF YOU MY CELL PHONE. IF NOT, I WILL MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MY CELL PHONE AS WELL. TAB THREE WAS THE OH OF OFFICE THAT YOU GUYS ALREADY DID. JUST A COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS.
THREE IS A LIST OF YOU ALL. I ASK FOR YOU GUYS TO GO AHEAD AND PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT IT. MAKE SURE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AND CONTACT INFORMATION IS CORRECT. IF THERE IS ANY CORRECTIONS THAT ARE NEEDED ON THAT, YOU DO NEED TO REACH OUT TO THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE AND MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE RIGHT INFORMATION.
YOU GUYS JUST MADE THE MOTION. WE WILL REMOVE THE JULY 3 FROM THAT LIST. AND SHOULD YOU GUYS FEEL WE NEED TO HAVE ANOTHER MEETING BETWEEN MAY AND SEPTEMBER AT THE MAIN MEETING, WE COULD HAVE THAT CONVERSATION.
TAB FIERVETION THE ROBERTS RULES OF ORDER.
STEPHANIE DID A REALLY GOOD JOB IN GOING OVER THE BRIEF OVERVIEW OF HOW THAT IS. THERE IS SOME GUIDELINES IN THIS BOOK FOR YOU AS WELL. AS TAB SIX WITH THE SUNSHINE LAWS AND ETHICS. AGAIN, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON ANY OF THOSE, OUR DEPUTY CITY CLERK OR CITY CLERK IS AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT TO ME.
IF I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER, I'LL GUIDE YOU WITH THE CORRECT ANSWER THROUGH THEIR OFFICE. TAB SEVEN, OUR GENERAL ADVISORY BOARD COLD OF ORDINANCES. IT KIND OF GOES THROUGH HOW AN ADVISORY BOARD IS TO BE GOVERNED.
THEN NUMBER EIGHT, SPECIFIC TO OUR ADVISORY BOARD.
YOU CAN KIND OF SEE WHAT YOUR ROLE IS ON THAT TAB.
BASICALLY, YOU AREMARKING RECOMMENDATIONS ON SIZE AND LOCATIONS OF PUBLIC PARKS TO THE CITY.
[00:20:01]
RECOMMENDATIONS ON FACILITIES TO BE PROVIDED AT THOSE PARKS.RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE SYSTEMS AND PROGRAMS WE HAVE FOR RESIDENTS. AND THEN THE FOURTH THING IS RESM DAYS ON OTHER MATTERS INVOLVING RECREATIONAL SERVICES OR FACILITIES MAY BE REQUESTED FROM TIME TO TIME.
SO AS WE GO THROUGH, THERE WILL BE PROJECTS WE HAVE GONE THROUGH AND ASKED YOU GUYS TO REVIEW THE SPORTS POLICY IN THE PAST.
WE HAVE DONE SOME SUBCOMMITTEES AND UPDATES TO THAT.
AS WELL AS LAST TERM, YOU GUYS WERE VERY INSTRUMENTAL IN STARTING A BANNER SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM THROUGHOUT OUR PARKS.
THERE IS THOSE TYPES OF PROJECTS THAT MAY COME UP.
WE MAY ASK FOR SOME SUBCOMMITTEES TO GET TOGETHER, DO SOME RESEARCH. AND BRING PACK TO THE BOARD FOR SOME RECOMMENDATIONS OF US MOVING FORWARD.
NINE IS BASICALLY OUR RESOLUTION FOR HOW THE RULES AND PROCEDRES OF THE ADVISORY BOARD IS TO BE GOVERNED.
SECTION TEN IS SOME OF THOSE POLICY THAT IS WE HAVE SOME DISCUSSIONS AT IN OUR MEETING. SUCH AS OUR SPORTS POLICY, OUR SPECIAL EVENTS POLICY, AND OUR SPONSORSHIP POLICIES.
AND SO FORTH. THOSE ARE ALL OF THE RECENT POLICIES AND UPDATES. FEEL FREE TO READ THROUGH AS WELL. SO ON THAT NOTE, ONE OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS FROM LAST TERM THAT IS ROLLING OVER INTO THIS TERM IS OUR PARKLAND DAY PLANNING SUBCOMMITTEE.
LEO IS OUR CHAIR. LEO WILL STILL BE OUR CHAIR.
AND LATER IN THE MEETING, HE WILL BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE TO WHERE THAT PLANNING COMMIT DEE IS.
I INVITE THE NEW BOARD MEMBERS. IF YOU WANT TO BE PART OF THAT, LET LEO KNOW. I'M SURE HE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE MORE HELP AND SUPPORT IN REGARDS TO.
THAT I WANTED TO GIVE YOU GUYS AN UPDATE ON THE PARKLAND DASH AND OUR PUMPKIN PATCH. WE HAVE FINALIZED ALL OF OUR REVENUES VERSUS EXPENSES. WE ARE HAPPY TO REPORT BACK THAT FOR THE DASH, THE BROWARD SCHOOLS, EACH OF OUR FIVE BROWARD SCHOOLS, THE THREE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, THE MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL WILL RECEIVE $1,487.
FOR THE PUMPKIN PATCH, THE ATHLETIC FOUNDATION WILL RECEIVE 6 DLRKS 108. WE WILL BE PRESENTING THAT AT A FUTURE COMMISSION MEETING. OUR NEXT COMMISSION MEETING, FOR YOUR RECORDS, WILL BE JANUARY 18.
FEBRUARY 15, AND MARCH 1. I'LL CONTINUE TO GIVE YOU UPDATES ON WHEN THOSE MEETINGS ARE.
FIND THE AGENDA ON OUR WEBSITE AS WELL.
A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE MEETING, USUALLY, THEY GET POSTED THE FRIDAY BEFORE THE COLLISION MEETING.
YOU CAN FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH ANYTHING ON THE AGENDA.
FEEL FREE TO COME AND BE PART OF THE MEETINGS.
OR REACH OUT TO COMMISSIONERS. AND OUR NEXT ADVISORY BOARD MEETING WILL BE MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6.
SHERRY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL GRANTS THE CITY RECEIVES. AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ADMINISTERING THEM AND GETTING THE PAPERWORK AND EVERYTHING
THAT GOES ALONG WIT. >> THERE IS A GRANT THAT SHE WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU GUYS.
THAT WE HAVE A POSSIBILITY OF APPLYING FOR.
ON THIS GRANT IS FOR OUR NEW PARK, 36-ACRE SITE WE HAVE BEEN ABLES TO DEVELOP INTO... WE ARE GOING TO BE DEVELOPING INTO A PARK. IT IS CALLED OUR REJ PRESERVE PARK. THAT IS THE OFFICIAL NAME OF THE PARK. THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NEW, WE HAD 12 ACRES THAT WAS ORIGINALLY A PASSIVE PARK AREA.
THE CITY WENT OUT AND PURCHASED 24 ACRES NEXT-DOOR.
NOW WE HAVE 36 ACRES TO DEVELOP THIS ACTIVE RECREATION PARK.
SO I'LL TURN IT OVER TO SHERRY. SHE WILL GIVE YOU SOME
INFORMATION ON THE GRANT. >> THANK YOU.
I'M A LONG-TERM RESIDENT OF PARKLAND.
PARKLAND IELS. I HAVE BEEN HERE 17 YEARS.
I'M THE BUDGET AND GRANTS MANAGER.
A FORTUITOUS COMBINATION OF JOB RESPONSIBILITIES BECAUSE WHEN I DO THE BUDGET, WE DO LONG-TERM PLANNING.
FINANCIAL PLANNING. I CAN SEE WHAT OUR NEEDS ARE COMING DOWN THE ROAD. AND THEN I CAN LOOK FOR GRANTS.
THAT MIGHT MATCH THAT. THIS TONIGHT... I NEED TO TALK TO AND HAVE JUST A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE LAND AND WATER CONSERVATION FUND GRANT. LWCF, FOR SHORT.
IT IS OFFERED BY THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. IT IS DUE JANUARY 31.
AND IF WE HAVE A DISCUSSION WITH THE BOARD, WE RECEIVE EXTRA POINTS. IN OUR SCORING.
SO THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE... OF MY BEING HERE.
IT IS A COMPETITIVE GRANT. A LOT OF THE CITIES APPLY.
IT REQUIRES MATCHING FUNDS. 50-50.
WE HAVE RECEIVED THIS GRANT TWICE BEFORE IN THE PAST.
[00:25:03]
FOR THE PARK. IN THE PAST, THEY HAVE ONLY OFFERED $200,000 OF WHICH WE WOULD THEN MATCH $200,000.BUT THIS YEAR, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SUPPORTING THE FUND, AND THEY ARE OFFERING $1.5 MILLION.
SO WE COULD POTENTIALLY DO A $3 MILLION PROJECT IF WE WIN THE GRANT. PUTTING UP $1.5 OF OUR MONEY AND GETTING $1.5. THIS IS ON A REIMBURSEMENT BASIS. WHICH IS WHY I HAVE A JOB.
BECAUSE A QUARTER AFTER QUARTER, I'M FILING REPORTS, PROVIDING INVOICES, TRYING TO GET THEM TO PAY US THE MONEY.
LIKE FEMA, THEY CAN TAKE FOREVER.
SO THE PURPOSE OF THE GRANT WOULD BE TO DEVELOP THE WEDGE PRESERVE PARK WHICH CHRISTINE MENTIONED.
THAT IS THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF KNOB HILL IN HILLSBOROUGH.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF LAND. IT WOULD BE A GREAT PARK.
WE ARE GOING TO DEVELOP IT. WE GET POINTS FOR THE FACILITIES WE PUT ON THERE. SOUTH FLORIDA IS IN NEED OF FIELDS. IF WE PUT FIELDS ON IT AND PICK ANYWHERE AIAS,... AREAS, WE GET EXTRA POINTS.
AND THEN ALSO FOR SUPPORT FACILITIES SUCH AS REST ROOMS, LIGHTING, PARKING LOTS. THEY DON'T PAY FOR BUILDINGS.
THEY DON'T WANT A GYMNASIUM. THEY DON'T WANT A REC CENTER.
SO I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND APPLY FOR THIS.
IT IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE FLORIDA RECREATIONAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM GRANT. WE APPLY FOR THAT QUITE FREQUENTLY AND TEND TO GET IMENT.
THIS ONE IS JUST SO LARGE. WE REALLY SHOULD TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO GET ON THIS GRANT.
IF POSSIBLE. THE BEGINNING AND END DATES, IT IS NOT IN THE OUR CONTROL, AND IT IS NOT IN THE STATE'S CONTROL. IT IS UP TO THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE. IN THE PAST, THESE HAVE BEEN THREE-YEAR GRANTS. AND YOU DON'T FIND OUT ABOUT THEM UNTIL MAYBE, IF WE ARE LUCKY, AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER.
THEN WE WILL HAVE MONTHS BEFORE WE GET ALL THE PAPERWORK DONE.
THEN THE THREE YEARS STARTS TICKING.
THAT SHOULD BE WELL WITHIN THE TIME IT TAKES TO BUILD OUT AND DEVELOP WEDGE PRESERVE PARK. ONE OF THE STIPULATIONS OF THE GRANT, THOUGH, IS THAT THE SITE MUST BE DEDICATED IN PERPETUITY AS A PARK. AND THIS HAS COME UP IN DISCUSSIONS BEFORE WITH THE CITY COMMISSION BECAUSE OF THE GRANT WE GOT. A DIFFERENT GRANT TO PURCHASE THE LAND. AND WE HAVE VETTED THAT, GONE THROUGH THAT, AND I THINK EVERYBODY IS OKAY WITH THAT.
WE CAN AGREE THAT THIS WILL ALWAYS BE A PARK.
AT THIS POINT. THERE ARE WAYS TO GET OUT OF.
THAT LIKE, IF YOU NEED TO SELL IT TO A DEVELOPER, THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER 36 ACRES TO GIVE TO THE STATE.
BECAUSE THE STATE IS ESSEN ESSENTIALLY... AND THE FEDS ARE GIVING US THE MONEY. AND THE FACILITIES WE PUT IN MUST ADDRESS AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT SOMEWHAT.
YOU HAVE TO SHOW SOME ACCESSIBILITIES AND PROCUREMENT WILL BE SUBJECT TO... IT IS CALLED BUILD AMERICA BY AMERICA ACT NOW. YOU WILL HAVE TO BE SUBJECT TO THAT. I'M HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUES QUESTIONS. I WOULD LIKE TO APPLY... IT IS DUE JANUARY 31. I THINK WE HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO GET IT DONE. IT WOULD BE A NICE FIT FOR THIS.
FOR THIS PARK. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR
BUT THIS IS A BIG ONE. IT IS A BIG... THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST ONES WE HAVE HAD. THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.
WE WILL HAVE TO PUT UP THE MONEY.
WE HAVE IT IN OUR FIVE-YEAR PLAN.
IT IS IN THE CAPITAL FIVE-YEAR PLANS.
IT IS PLANNED TO BE SPENT. NOT IN THIS BUDGET YEAR.
THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF MONEY IN THIS BUDGET YEAR TO GET THE LAND STARTED. THERE IS FUTURE MONEY AS WELL.
THIS WILL JUST OFF-SET WHAT WE HAD PLANNED TO SPEND.
IF WE GET THE GRANT. (INAUDIBLE).
>> CORRECT. WHEN SHE SAID IF WE DECIDED TO SELL IT THE A DEVELOPER OR SOMETHING, WE HAVE TO GIVE THE STATE OR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT... THIS IS GOING TO BE CONSIDERED
A... NOT A STATE PARK. >> THAT WAS FOR THE ACQUISITION OF THE LAND. WHICH WHEN WE BOUGHT THE LAND, WE GOT GRANT ASSISTANCE FOR THAT AS WELL.NG THE LAND.
AND WE HAVE TO NAME THE STATE AS A PART OWNER OF THE LAND, SO TO SPEAK. SO WE MAY HAVE TO DO THAT AS WELL WITH THIS GRANT. BUT WE ARE GOING TO... THIS IS
[00:30:03]
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT. TO PUT THE FIELDS IN.TO PUT THE PLAYGROUND IN. SO TO SPEAK.
I DON'T NEED A MOTION. JUST TO SHOW IN THE MINUTES THAT WE HAD THIS DISCUSSION AND YOU KNOW, IT HELPS IF YOU ARE SUPPORTIVE. THAT I CAN GO FORWARD WITH IT.
>> THANK YOU, THANK YOU. >> WE APPRECIATE IT.
>> SCOTT HARRISON. ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND REC. SO GETTING INTO PROGRAMS, WE HAD OUR PARKLAND KIDS DAY OFF CAMP. IT WAS ON NOVEMBER 8.

>> THEY ADDED THE NEW ROW. THEN THEY PAVED OVER WHERE THEY PUT THE NEW HANDY CAP SPOTS. THERE IS FIVE-INCH DEEP GOUGES WHERE THEY DRAGGED MACHINES AND STUFF IN THAT PARKING LOT THAT I
HAVE SEEN PEOPLE TRIP OVER. >> OKAY.
WE WILL TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW.
IF I DON'T SEE ANYTHING, I WILL TOUCH BASE WITH YOU OR WHATEVER.
MAYBE WE CAN MEET OUT THERE OR SOMETHING.
THANKS. THIS IS THE FIELD THREE THAT NICK HAD MENTIONED AT PINE TRAILS.
THAT FIELD IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
IT IS BEING USED. WE ARE PENDING SOME FINAL PAPERWORK TO FINALLY CLOSE OUT THAT PROJECT AS WELL.
PINE TRAILS PARK PLAYGROUND. AS WE MENTIONED, THERE HAS BEEN MUCH MORE ON STATUS. THE EQUIPMENT HAS BEEN ORDERED.
[00:40:02]
IT IS SCHEDULED TO BE HERE IN APRIL.HOWEVER, THEY ARE ANTICIPATING ON DOING SOME PRE-CONSTRUCTION WORK LIKE REMOVAL AND SOME SITE PREP AREA.
IN THE LATER PART OF FEBRUARY. SO WE ARE HOPING IT IS GOING TO BE A VERY TIGHT SCHEDULE. WE ARE POSITIVE AND HOPEFUL THAT IT WILL BE COMPLETED BEFORE SUMMER SO THE KIDS WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE THEIR PLAYGROUND BEFORE THE SUMMER.
ON SOME OF THE ADDITIONAL PROJECTS, OUR DOG PARK.
ON THE AGILITY EQUIPMENT, THAT HAS BEEN INSTALLED.
THAT IS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED. THEY DID SOME LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS. WE ARE LOOKING TO PURCHASE THE NEW BENCHES AND NEW PICNIC TABLES.
AND THAT BASICALLY, WILL WRAP UP ALL THE NEW STUFF INTO OUR DOG PARK AREA. ON THE EQUESTRIAN CENTER HORSE RING. WE INITIALLY RECEIVED OUR BIDS.
THEY WERE SUBSTANTIALLY OVER BUDGET.
WE TALKED ABOUT IT LAST MEETING. A LOT OVER BUDGET.
WE DECIDED TO REDEFINE THE PROJECT'S SCOPE.
IT CURRENTLY WENT OUT THE BID. IT WILL BE CLOSING FEBRUARY 2.
WE ARE ABLE TO DO TWO FIELDS. WE WILL BE DOING FIELDS TWO AND SIX. FIELDS ONE AND FIVE WILL BE DONE IN FUTURE PHASES. ON THIS PROJECT, IT WAS APPROVED AT OUR LAST MEETING IN DECEMBER. AND WE TOOK... WE HAD OUR KICKOFF MEETING LAST WEEK. WE WERE TRYING TO COORDINATE GETTING THE FENCE HERE AND IN TIME AND SO FORTH.
WE ARE LOOKING TO NOT PROBABLY DO THIS PROJECT, THOUGH UNTIL SUMMER. JUST BECAUSE OF OUR ATHLETIC SCHEDULES AND SEASONS AND SO FORTH.
TO NOT DISTURB FIELD USE. THE PARK ADDITION.
THE TWO ADDITIONAL PICKLEBALL COURTS.
THAT PROJECT DID START NOVEMBER 28.
THAT IS SCHEDULED. IT IS ON SCHEDULE.
THEY WERE ABLE TO DO ALL THE LIGHTING AND SUB-SURFACE WORK AND SO FORTH. THEY ARE ANTICIPATING ON BEING DONE TOWARDS THE END OF FEBRUARY.
HOWEVER, THE COURTS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
UNTIL MID-FEBRUARY. JUST BECAUSE THERE NEEDS TO BE THAT CURING TIME. YOU MAY HEAR SOME OF OUR RESIDENTS SAY, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE DONE.
WE CAN'T GET ON UNTIL THAT ASPHALT HAS SOME TIME TO CURE.
OUR LED LIGHTS AT THE TENNIS CENTER.
THE TENNIS CENTER IS GAINING FRESH NEW LED LIGHTS.
THAT PROJECT WAS APPROVED BY COMMISSION AND THE CONTRACT HAS BEEN FINALIZED. WE MET WITH THE CONTRACTOR.
THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ORDERED. WE ARE EXPECT... THEY ARE EXPECTED TO BE SHIPPED NEXT MONTH.
WE ARE HOPING TO HAVE THIS PROJECT CLEATED BY MARCH.
... COMPLETED BY MARCH. WEDGE PRESERVE PARK.
WE TALKED EARLIER IN THE MEETING ABOUT.
THIS THE COMMISSION HAS APPROVED THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE DESIGN FIRM. WE ARE CURRENTLY STILL WORKING ON THAT CONTRACT AND FINALIZING OUT ALL THE CONTRACT DETAILS.
ONCE THAT GETS DONE, WE WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE A KICKOFF.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE DESIGN PHASE TO PROBABLY TAKE TEN MONTHS TO A YEAR. AND FORECAST JUST SO YOU GUYS KNOW, YOU GUYS WILL ALL BE A PART OF THAT PROCESS.
WE WILL HAVE A MEETING. IF IT IS NOT READY FOR THE MARCH MEETING, TO HAVE ANY SORT OF PRELIMINARY CONVERSATION.
THEN THAT IS WHEN WE MAY WANT EITHER... IN THE MAIN MEETING OR WE MAY NEED TO HAVE A MEETING IN N IN BETWEEN.
I WILL KEEP YOU GUYS POSTED IN OUR NEXT MEETING.
WE WILL BE DISCUSSING THOSE IDEAS WITH YOU GUYS.
THE REST ROOM REMODEL. WE ARE FINISHING Y UP THE DESIG.
WE ARE HOPEFULLY, GOING TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS BEFORE CONTRACTS.
SO WE COULD START WORKING ON REDESIGNING AND REMODELING OUR TWO BATHROOMS OVER AT THE PARK. THE EXPANDED PARKING.
THIS IS AN ADDITIONAL PARKING AREA.
THE PROJECT WE JUST COMPLETED DID ADD 19 NEW PARKING SPACES.
WE ARE STILL FINDING THAT THERE IS STILL NOT ENOUGH PARKING.
ESPECIALLY DURING PEAK SEASON. SO THERE IS SOME AREAS THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE ENGINEERS LOOK AT IN REGARDS TO THAT OPEN SPACE JUST SOUTH OF C&D. BETWEEN THERE AND THE PAVILIONS.
IT WOULD TAKE AWAY SOME GREEN SPACE THAT IS IN THAT PARK, OBVIOUSLY. WE ARE REALLY TRYING TO GET WITH THEM AND WORK WITH THEM TO PROVIDE US WITH TWO DESIGN OPTIONS. YOU KNOW? AND HOW MANY PARKING SPACES WE COULD GET WITH EACH OF THOSE DESIGN OPTIONS. ONE WOULD BE TO PRESERVE MORE GREEN SPACE. AND THE OTHER WOULD BE TO REALLY MEET THE NEED OF THE ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES THAT WE HAVE.
I'LL KEEP YOU GUYS POSTED ON HOW WE GO THROUGH THAT.
FENCE REPAIRS AND RESURFACING OF THE BASKETBALL COURTS AT PINE TRAILS ONE AND TWO. THREE AND FOUR WERE RECENTLY DONE. IT IS NOW TIME FOR OUR REPLACEMENT PLAN TO HAVE COURTS ONE AND TWO DONE.
THAT WILL BE DONE AFTER THE CURRENT BASKETBALL SEASON.
DORIS DAVIS, EVASIVE... INVASE I PLANT REMOVAL AND FENCE REPLACEMENT. DORIS DAIS GOT SOME INVASIVE
[00:45:01]
PLANTS ESPECIALLY ALONG THE FENCE LINE.THEY WILL GO IN AND CLEAN THAT UP.
IT WILL KIND OF LOOK BARE FOR A LITTLE WHILE ALONG THE FENCE LINE. BE AWARE OF THAT PROJECT.
AND WHILE WE DO THAT, WE ARE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND REPLACE THE FENCE. LIBERTY PARK PLAYGROUND IMPROVEMENTS: AS YOU MAY RECALL, LAST YEAR WE WENT IN AND WE HAD AN ASSESSMENT DONE ON THIS PARK.
WE WENT IN AND WE DID THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE NEEDED TO DO FOR SAFETY PURPOSES. AND THE TEAM IS NOW LOOKING AT WAYS THAT WE COULD IMPROVE THE PARK WITH KEEPING THE AESTHETIC AND THE LOOKS AND THE FEEL OF THAT PARK.
BECAUSE IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PARK. IT IS BUILD A PARK.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE THAT IN OUR OTHER PLAYGROUNDS.
WE UNDERSTAND ALL OF. THAT WE ARE WORKING HARD WITH THE DESIGN TEAM ON THAT. ONCE... WE ARE WORKING THROUGH ALL OF THAT. SCHEDULING ANY IMPROVEMENTS DONE AT LIBERTY PARK WILL NOT TAKE PLACE UNTIL AFTER SUMMER.
WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE PINE TRAILS AND LIBERTY PARK IN EFFECT. PINE TRAILS WILL BE CLOSED DOWN FOR THAT PROJECT. AND THEN WE WILL GET THROUGH OUR SUMMER. WE WILL START WORKING ON THE LIBERTY PARK. THAT IS ALL OF OUR PROJECTS.
I'M HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS MAY HAVE.
YES? >> YOU HAVE BEEN HEARING ABOUT THE PARKING. NOT SAYING ANYTHING NEW.
SOMETHING TO CONSIDER. OBVIOUSLY, WE LOVE PARKLAND HAVING AS MUCH GREEN SPACE AS POSSIBLE.
ANYONE WHO IS DROPPING THEIR KIDS OFF ON THE PEAK SEASON KNOWS THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU ARE CIRCLING THAT PARKING LOT.
YOU MIGHT MISS THE GAME. >> RIGHT.
>> IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SPOT. PEOPLE ARE PARKING ON WHAT IS
GREEN SPACE ON THE GREEN SPACE. >> RIGHT.
>> EITHER WAY. >> I SUPPORT PARKING SPACE.
>> YEAH. PINE TRAILS PLAYGROUND WORK? WE HAD TALKED, I THINK, AT THE LAST MEETING ABOUT COMMUNICATION STRATEGY. AS WE ARE GETTING CLOSER, HAVE WE FLUSHED SOMETHING OUT ON THAT?
>> YES. >> NOTHING WORSE THAN A MOM SHOWING UP WITH THEIR KIDS AND THE PARK BEING CLOSED.
AT OUR MEETINGS THE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT IS PART OF THE MEETINGS. THEY WILL ROLL OUT... ONE OF THE THINGS WE ARE WAITING SON TO G GET... YOU KNOW, A LITTLE BIT CLOSER. WE WILL NOT CLOSE DOWN THE PLAYGROUND UNTIL THE EARLIEST WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, THE THIRD WEEK OF FEBRUARY TO THE LAST WEEK OF FEBRUARY.
JUST MAKING SURE THAT WE WILL HAVE THE EQUIPMENT IN APRIL WHEN THEY SAY IT IS GOING TO BE HERE SO WE DON'T HAVE ALSO THE PLAYGROUND SITTING CLOSED AND NO WORK BEING DONE.
LONGER THAN IT NEEDS TO BE. WE WILL DEFINITELY MAKE SURE COMMUNICATIONS IS INVOLVED. AND WE HAVE THAT ROLLED OUT.
>> THANK YOU. >> AS WELL AS SIGNAGE.
ON THE PARK ITSELF. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LEADING UP TO IT. THOSE WHO ARE FREQUENT VISITORS WILL SEE IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS COMING UP TO IT.
THEY WILL EXPECT THAT DATE. WE WILL REDIRECT THEM TO LIBERTY PARK AND OUR OTHER PLAYGROUNDS IN THE CITY.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU, CHRISTINE. OKAY.
[9. Old Business]
MOVING ON TO OLD BUSINESS. PARKLAND DAY.GET US UP TO DATE. >> LEO GORDON AGAIN.
PARKLAND DAY, IF ANYONE... IF NEW MEMBERS HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT IT YET, IN MY OPINION, IT IS GOING TO BE THE LARGEST EVENT THE CITY IS PUTTING ON THIS YEAR.
I HAD TO TAKE A GUESS AT THAT. THE NUMBERS YOU SEE WILL ALLOW THE EVENTS AROUND 6,000 PEOPLE. I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE A PROJECTION YET, BUT I COULD PERSONALLY SEE IT POSSIBLY DOUBLE AT LEAST. I WOULD SAY GIVE OR TAKE.
ON MARCH 11 OF 2023, WHICH IS A SATURDAY, IT IS THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF PARKLAND. THE CITY IS PUTTING ON A MAJOR EVENT. IF YOU GO ON THE WEBSITE, THE CITY OF PARKLAND, YOU WILL SEE A NICE COUNTDOWN ON THERE.
WE HAVE 60 DAYS, 15 HOURS, TEN MINUTES AND 40 SECONDS.
AS YOU CAN TELL, THE CLOCK IS TICKING.
60 DAYS IS NOT THAT LONG, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE.
WE JUST DID TWO YEARS SITTING UP HERE.
FRVES IT FELT LIKE LESS THAN 60 DAYS.
SOME OF THE EVENTS, THERE IS GOING TO BE A PARADE AT 10:00 A.M. IN THE MORNING. THERE IS A PARADE APPLICATION ON THE WEBSITE. WE ENCOURAGE ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ARTIST PATE OR KNOW ANYONE IN THE CITY WHO WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE, OR OUTSIDE THE CITY AS WELL, GO ON THE WEBSITE. THERE IS A BUSINESS EXPO.
THERE IS ALSO BUSINESS SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY.
THERE IS A KIDS ZONE THAT DAY. FOOD COWARD.
FOOD COURT. THERE IS A CONTEST FOR KIDS.
THEN CAPPED OFF WITH THE EVENING CONCERT.
I BELIEVE THE CITY IS STILL LOOKING TO FINALIZE... OKAY.
THE CITY HAS FINALIZED THE MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING.
WHICH IS THE BAND SUGAR RAY. WHICH CAME TO FAME IN THE 90S.
SOME YEARS AFTER, THE LEAD SINGERST MARK MCGRATH HAS
[00:50:01]
KEPT HIMSELF PRETTY RELEVANT. WE FEEL LIKE THAT WILL BE A NICE DRAW. ESPECIALLY WITH THE DEMOGRAPHICS IN THE CITY. SOME OF THEIR SONGS WILL STRIKE A TUBE THAT EVENING. ... A TUNE THAT EVENING.WE WILL HAVE A NICE PRESENCE BASED ON.
THAT OVERALL, THE HELP THAT WE COULD USE AS A COMMITTEE IS...
HOWARD IS ALREADY INVOLVED WHICH IS GREAT.
BRIAN, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND.
RIGHT NOW, WE HAVE THE MEETINGS AS SCHEDULED THROUGH GOOGLE TEAMS. OR MEET.
SOME HOW, SOME WAY, WE ARE STARING AT EACH OTHER THROUGH A COMPUTER. SO THAT NEXT ONE WILL BE JANUARY 24. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE PART OF THE MEETING, YOU CAN SPEAK TO MYSELF OR NICK.
GIVE US YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS. NICK WILL SEND OUT AN INVITE.
IT IS AT 5:30 PNL. IT IS SOMETHING WE WILL DISCUSS.
I FEEL LIKE WE MAY HAVE A COUPLE MORE, PROBABLY A FEW MORE BEFORE MARCH, IF I HAD TO GUESS. SO ANY INVOLVEMENT THAT ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE, LET US KNOW FOR SURE.
I MEAN, AGAIN, WE ARE NOW... THE COUNTDOWN IS STILL GOING, UNFORTUNATELY. WE HAVE CAN'T STOP.
THAT IT IS STILL MOVING. IF NICK COULD FIGURE OUT A WAY TO STOP THAT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
OTHERWISE, ANYBODY WHO WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE, IT IS GOING TO BE THE EVENT OF THE YEAR. AGAIN, MY FAVORITE THING TONIGHT. IF I HAD TO GUESS.
I DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY PROMISES.
THAT IS REALLY IT. JANUARY 24.
LET US KNOW. IT IS A TUESDAY NIGHT.
5 50BG. MEETINGS, USUALLY, 30 MINUTES TO AN HOUR, TOPS. AGAIN, A LITTLE INVESTMENT OF YOUR TIME. BEING PART OF THIS EVENT, WILL DEFINITELY LEAVE A LASTING LEGACY FOR THE CITY ON THIS ONE.
>> IT IS FREE TO JOIN. FORECAST.
>> FREE TO JOIN. >> JUST GOING TO ASK A QUESTION.
WHEN I SAW IT WAS ON THE AGENDA, I WENT TO THE WEBSITE.
I HAVE YOUR COUNTDOWN. I PRINTED EVERYTHING.
>> IT STOPPED ON THE PRINTOUT. DIDN'T IT?
IT STOPS ON THE PRINTOUT. >> FROZEN IN TIME.
THE ONE THING I DID NOTICE IS, YOU KNOW, IN ADDITION TO THE CAR SHOW WHICH LOOKS REALLY FUN, THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU ARE LOOKING FOR BUSINESSES AND FOOD VENDORS. I NOTICED BY PULLING DOWN THE APPLICATION, THE DEADLINE FOR THAT IS JANUARY 31.
I WAS JUST WONDERING HOW IT WAS COMING ALONG IN MATERIALS OF VENDORS FOR FOOD AND FOR BUSINESSES.
AND OBVIOUSLY, YOU NEED A CHANCE TO VET THOSE.
AT THE SAME TIME, STILL TRYING TO ADVERTISE FOR THAT AND
MAXIMIZE THAT SUPPORT. >> YEAH.
WE HAVE BEEN SENDING OUT THAT APPLICATION TO QUITE A FEW.
IF WE TECHNICALLY GOT ANY AFTER JANUARY 31 AND WE THOUGHT THEY WERE A GOOD FIT, WE WOULD PROBABLY STILL ADD THEM IN.
RIGHT NOW, WE HAVE AROUND FIVE. WE ARE TRYING TO GET VENDORS WE DON'T NORMALLY REACH OUT TO. YOU KNOW, WE ARE REACHING OUT THROUGHOUT YELLOW GREEN MARKET. THERE IS A BUNCH OF BIG FOOD COURTS THAT YOU CAN FIND THROUGHOUT SOUTH FLORIDA.
WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO ALL OF THOSE TO.
GAUGE INTEREST AND SEE WHO IS INTERESTED IN COMING.
WE HOPE TO HAVE SOMEWHERE AROUND 30-40 THERE IN TOTAL.
>> HAVE YOU BEEN USING THE FARMER'S MARKET FOLKS?
>> YEAH. OUR FARMER'S MARKET INDIVIDUALS ARE DEFINITELY SOME PEOPLE WE COULD PULL FROM.
WE USUALLY HAVE AROUND 20 THERE EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND.
THERE ARE SOME RESOURCES WE COULD USE.
ALL RIGHT. >> JUST ONE OTHER THING I WANTED TO ADD. GREAT JOB.
ON ALL THE EVENT ACTIVE DISAND SO FORTH.
ONE IMPORTANT ASPECT IS BECAUSE WE ARE CELEBRATING 60 YEARS, I WANT TO KNOW... WE ARE ROLLING OUT SOME HISTORICAL COMPONENTS.
YOU KNOW, WITH OUR HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS AND SO FORTH AS WELL, TOO, AT THE MAIN EVENT, THERE WILL BE A BOOTH AREA. THAT WILL HAVE THE CITY'S HISTORY AND SOME ARTIFACTS. AND THINGS TO THAT NATURE.
THEY ARE ALSO WORKING HARD AT GETTING SOME OF OUR PAST PIONEERS TO COME OUT AND SPEAK AND BE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS FROM RESIDENTS WHO MAY WANT TO INQUIRE IN REGARDS TO WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST 60 YEARS THE CITY.
ANOTHER EXCITING ACTIVITY WE ARE GOING TO BE DOING IS WE ARE UPGRADING ALL OF THE PORTALS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW THROUGHOUT THE CITY, THE CITY CURRENTLY HAS 13 PORTALS.
WE ARE ACTUALLY ADDING ONE. FOR THE 14TH PORTAL.
THAT WILL BE IN FRONT OF CITY HALL.
THEN THE IMPORTANCE OF THAT ONE IS THIS IS ACTUALLY A TIME CAPSULE THAT NEEDS TO BE OPENED IN, LIKE, ANOTHER 25-0 YEARS.
WHATEVER IT IS. WE WILL HAVE 14 PORTALS.
WE ARE GOING TO ROLL OUT WHAT WE CALL OUR CLUES IN THE PARK.
BASE KRI, THEY WILL BE TASKED WITH GOING AROUND TO ALL THE PORTALLINGS. THE PORTAL ITSELF WILL HAVE A FEW SENTENCES AND INFORMATION IN REGARDS TO THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THAT SPOT. AS WELL AS A Q.R. THAT YOU CAN SCAN. YOU COULD READ PAGES UPON PAGES OF MORE DETAILED HISTORY. OUR CLUES IN THE PARK WILL BE A FEW QUESTIONS. THEY WOULD HAVE TO READ THOSE TO BE ABLE TO FIND THOSE ANSWERS ABOUT THE HISTORY OF PARKLAND.
THEY WILL SUBMIT THOSE AND BE ABLE TO ENTER INTO A RAFFLE FOR SOME WINNINGS AND SOME LITTLE GIVE-I HAVE A WAYS OR WHATEVER.
IT IS KIND OF COOL FOR EVERYTHING.
[00:55:03]
WE WILL HAVE A LOT OF THINGS FOR FAMILIES, FOR KIDS, THE ENTERTAINMENT. WE WILL DO COMMUNITY-BASED PERFORMANCES. LEECHING UP TO SUGAR RAY.UP ON STAGE AND SO FORTH. IT IS GOING TO BE A FULL DAY.
STAFF IS GOING TO BE DEAD-TIRED BY THE END OF THE NIGHT.
AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS.
ANOTHER EXCITING THING THAT WE HAVE ADDED AS WELL, TOO IS A VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION LUMP. ... LUNCH.
WE ALSO RECOGNIZE NOT JUST VOLUNTEERS FOR PARKLAND DAY BUT VOLUNTEERS IN PARKLAND THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
SO WE HAVE DONE SOME OUTREACH. WE HAVE DEVELOPED A LITTLE STAFF SUBCOMMITTEE WORKING GROUP. LIBRARY VOLUNTEERS.
EVENT VOLUNTEERS. OUR ATHLETIC BOARD MEMBERS.
AND THINGS TO THAT NATURE. WE WILL BE RECEIVING AN INVITE IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO. AND THERE WILL BE A LUNCH THAT DAY AS WELL. SO AFTER THE PARADE B BUT BEFORE THE MAIN EVENT, WE WILL HAVE A LUNCH IN THE REC.
YOWCH GUYS WILL GET AN INVITE IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
AND YOU GUYS ARE ALSO WELCOME TO BE A PART OF THAT FOR THE VOLUNTEERING YOU GUYS DO. AND OUR PREVIOUS BOARD MEMBERS THAT SERVED LAST YEAR. WITH THAT, I THINK I COVERED IT ALL. THANKS, LEO.
>> OKAY. ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM STAFF? NO? ALL RIGHT. I WOULD LIKE TO GET A MEETING TO ADJOURN THEN. MOTION, I'M SORRY.
>> ALL RIGHT.
