[00:00:13]
LIKE TO CALL THE MEETING TO ORDER.
AT 5 P.M. PLEASE RISE FOR THE PLEDGE.
I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.
>> ROLL CALL. >> COMMISSIONER MAYERSOHN, HERE.
COMMISSIONER CUTLER, HERE. MAYOR WALKER, VICE MAYOR ZERO AND COMMISSIONER BE BRIER. HERE.
WE ARE GOING TO START -- >> I WOULD START WITH AN INTRODUCTION. I WANT TO INFORM YOU THAT WE'RE DOING THIS MINI STRATEGIC PLANNING SESSION TO GET HOLD OF SOME ITEMS EARLIER IN THE PROCESS AND TO LIGHTEN THE BIGGER RETREAT WE HAVE IN APRIL. AND THIS WAS A REQUEST OF COMMISSION I THINK PROBABLY TWO YEARS AGO.
SO IT'S KIND OF TO BREAK IT UP AND TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE
[4.A. Public Art]
STRATEGIC PLANNING BEFORE THE RETREAT.SO ON OUR AGENDA TODAY WE HAVE THREE ITEMS WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT. THE FIRST ONE BEING PUBLIC ART, THE SECOND BEING THE PHOTO SPEED ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM AND THE QUICK UPDATE AND DISCUSSION ON THE AI CHATBOT.
I'LL TURN OVER PUBLIC ART TO JACKIE, WHO WILL GIVE YOU AN OVERVIEW. WE TALKED ABOUT THIS IN OUR PRIOR WORKSHOP. WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO A FORL REVIEW, AS WE TALKED ABOUT IN OUR PRIOR WORKSHOP BUT SOME TYPE OF FINANCIAL MECHANISM TO PUT IN PLACE AND THE BEGINNINGS OF A PROGRAM. JACKIE IS GOING TO FILL YOU IN
FOR SOME STRATEGY ON THAT. >> GOOD EVENING EVERYBODY SO YES, IT WAS JUST A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AT A WORKSHOP THAT WE HAD LESLIE FORDHAM AVAILABLE FROM THE CULTURAL COMMISSION, SHE GAVE YOU SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE PUBLIC ART, HOW CAN YOU SET UP A PROGRAM. SO VERY, VERY BRIEFLY.
WHAT IS PUBLIC ART? ITS FORM FUNCTION AND MEANING IS TO DO THROUGH THE PUBLIC PROCESS, SOMETHING THAT IS VISUALLY AND PHYSICALLY ACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC.
IT IS SOMETHING THAT EMBODIES PUBLIC AND UNIVERSAL CONCEPTS AND NOTHING THAT IS COMMERCIAL PARTISAN OR PERSONAL.
AND IT IS THE DIRECT OR INDIRECT PRODUCT OF A PUBLIC PROCESS.
SO OF COURSE, WE TALKED ABOUT PROS AND CONS OF PUBLIC ART.
AND, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PROS. RESIDENTS MAYBE DON'T -- DON'T HAVE ACCESSIBILITY TO EXPOSURE TO ART.
BUT THIS IS GOING TO ENHANCE THE CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES THAT WE HAVE RIGHT HERE IN THE CITY SO THEY CAN BE EXPOSETO ART RIGHT HERE IN PARKLAND. OF COURSE WOULD BEAUTIFY OUR CITY AND OF COURSE IT IS GOING TO CREATE COMMUNITY FINGERPRINTS, THIS IS SOMETHING WE CAN SAY WE ARE PARKLAND.
BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER, SOME PEOPLE COULD SAY I DON'T LIKE THIS PUBLIC ART SO IT IS A WASTE OF TAXPAYER MONEY.
PEOPLE CAN INTEND TO OR NOT INTEND TO FIND POLITICAL OR SOCIAL MESSAGING WITHIN ART, SO THAT CAN END UP BEING CONTROVERSIAL. I WANTED TO SHOW YOU A SMALL EXAMPLE. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU HAVE SEEN THIS PIECE OF ART BEFORE BUT I WANTED TO ASK IF YOU FEEL LIKE THIS PIECE OF ART THE CONTROVERSIAL IN ANY WAY.
THAT'S REALLY ALL IT IS. THAT IS 120 FEET LONG, 12 FOOT
TALL, PIECE OF R RUST METAL STE. >> I GUESS IT WOULD DEPEND ON YOUR INTERPRETATION. DOES THAT THEN RESOUND IN MILLION IDEOLOGY, SO THERE'S A NUMBER OF FACTORS THAT THAT CAN SUBJECTIVELY RAISE IN SOMEONE'S MIND.
>> SURE. >> AND TO YOUR POINT, NOWADAYS WITH THE POLITICAL CLIMATE, I THINK YOU CAN TAKE ALMOST
ANYTHING AND FIND SOME -- >> A TOILET WOULD BE POLITICAL.
>> SURE. SO THIS PIECE OF ART IS CALLED ESTIMATED ARC AND THIS WAS PLACED IN THE FEDERAL PLAZA IN MANHATTAN IN 1981. SO WHEN THIS ARTWORK WAS COMMISSIONED IN 1979 IT ACTUALLY COST $175,000.
IN 1979. SO YOU CAN IMAGINE WHAT THAT IS TODAY. BUT THIS ARTIST PUT THIS PIECE
[00:05:06]
OF ARTWORK HERE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PLAZA AND PEOPLE HATED IT. IT WAS SOMETHING THAT BLOCKED THE VIEW FROM A LOT OF THE FEDERAL BUILDING, IT IS SOMETHING THAT BLOCKED THE VIEW OF THE TREES AND THE FOUNTAINS AND EVERYTHING. AND THE ART 'TISIST SAID WELL TE MEANING OF THE PUBLIC ART IS IT'S SUPPOSED TO CHANGE THE PERSON AS THEY WALK THROUGH PLAZA, IT'S SUPPOSED TO ALTER THEIR PATH, MAKE PEOPLE MORE MINDFUL.PEOPLE HATED THAT IT ALTERED THEIR PATH.
THEY WANTED TO GET THROUGH AND GET GOING.
THEY ACTUALLY HAD A TRIAL AT ONE POINT BECAUSE THEY ARE VOTED TO REMOVE IT AND THE ARTIST FELT LIKE HIS FIRST AND FIFTH AMENDMENT RIGHTS WERE BEING VIOLATED AND IT TOOK UNTIL 1989 FOR THEM TO ACTUALLY REMOVE THE PIECE OF ARTWORK.
THE ARTIST SAID IT WAS MADE FOR THIS PLACE, CAN'T BE MOVED ANYPLACE ELSE, SO THE GOVERNMENT HAD TO MOVE IT SOMEPLACE ELSE FOR THIS ONE BIG UGLY PIECE OF STEEL.
>> IT IS ONE BIG WALL OF STEEL AND YOU CAN SEE IT COULD BE QUITE CONTROVERSIAL IF YOU WANT IT TO BE.
>> I GOT TO ASK A QUESTION. I'M CURIOUS.
SO THAT WAS ACTUALLY COMMISSIONED BY NEW YORK, BY
MANHATTAN? >> THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
>> FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. AND LIKE AND THE REASON I ASK IS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY I THINK HOW YOU COMMISSION A PIECE OF ART MATTERS, RIGHT? THAT RESULTS IN THE PRODUCT YOU GET AND THE PLACEMENT. SO I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT WAS SOMEWHAT ALMOST ENCOURAGED OF HOW -- IT WAS PROBABLY INTENDED TO HAVE AN EFFECT, RATHER THAN WHAT LIKE MOST ART IS, ESTHETIC AND MEANINGFUL THING RATHER THAN SHOCK VALUE.
I WOULD LOVE, WE DON'T HAVE TO GET INTO IT NOW BUT IF YOU CAN SHARE WITH ME LATER KIND OF WHAT THAT PROCESS WAS THAT WENT INTO IT SO I THINK WE CAN VOY IT. THERE IS A LOT TO BE LEARNED ABOUT THAT, IN THE 70S THE THINGS ARE LIKE MAKING A POINT AND SO I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO CAUGHT UP.
I MEAN I WORRY THAT SOMETIMES WE SCARE PEOPLE WHEN WE GO DOWN A ROAD OF COMPARING THAT WHEN I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS NOT PROBABLY THE IDEA OF WHAT I THINK AND HOPEFULLY THE COMMISSION CAN AGREE, WE'RE NOT MAKING A STATEMENT OF SOMETHING OTHER THAN MORE BEAUTIFICATION AND JUST WANT TO PUT THAT OUT
IT IS NO MATTER WHAT YOUR PROCESS IS LIKE, YOU COULD HAVE IF PERFECT PROCESS AND INVOLVE THE RIGHT PEOPLE BUT THEN THE RESULTS COULD END UP BEING THAT IT AFFECTS PEOPLE MORE SO THAN YOU THOUGHT IT WOULD. SO ABSOLUTELY, A MINDFUL PROCESS BUT KNOWING THAT ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.
SO HOW ARE WE GOING TO INCORPORATE PUBLIC ART? SO WHAT WE HEARD FROM YOU LAST TIME AT OUR WORKSHOP WAS A FEW THINGS. WE WANTED TO BEGIN A PROGRAM BUT NOT A BIG HUGE FULL BLOWN PROGRAM.
WE WANTED TO FOCUS ON SOME FUTURE THINGS LIKE THE TOWN CENTER, WE WANTED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ANY OPPORTUNITIES THAT COME OUR WAY AND THAT THERE WAS A CONCERN ABOUT FUNDING.
SO WE'RE HOPING THAT THIS PLAN WILL COVER ALL THOSE ITEMS WELL FOR YOU. SO WE WILL CONSIDER PUBLIC ART AS A PART OF PLANNING ALL OF OF OUR FUTURE PROJECTS.
WHETHER IT'S A BRAND-NEW PROJECT OR IT'S A RENEWAL.
BUT WE'RE ALSO GOING TO TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LET DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT IN OUR CITY BE APRIL OPPORTUNITY FOR FUNDING AND FOR INTENTIONAL PLACEMENT OF ART.
SO ONE THING THAT'S GOING TO DO THIS IS SOMETHING CALLED A PUBLIC ART REQUISITE. SO THE PUBLIC ART REQUISITE IS WHERE ALL DEVELOPMENT, REDEVELOPMENT, REMODELING OR CONVERTING GREATER THAN 12,500 SQUARE FEET AND FLOOR SPACE IN NONRESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS, SOME HOMES ARE GETTING QUITE BIG, WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT RESIDENTIAL, BUT NONRESIDENTIAL, THEY WOULD PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROGRAM.
SO SUPPOSE YOU ARE AN OWNER OF A NEW DEVELOPMENT YOU WOULD PROVIDE ARTWORK IN YOUR DEVELOPMENT, IF IT'S REMODELING OR CONVERTING THAT WOULD BE 25 CENTS PER SQUARE FOOT.
THIS ARTWORK YOU WOULD NEED TO ENSURE THAT 75% OF THAT ART IS SOMEPLACE WHERE THE PUBLIC CAN CLEARLY SEE IT FROM A SIDEWALK OR FROM THE PUBLIC OPEN AREA. BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING HERE IS THAT THE ARTWORK THAT THEY PROVIDE WOULD HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION. AND IT WOULD BE RECOMMENDED TO THE CITY COMMISSION BY THE CITY MANAGER AND ANY PERSON OR GROUP THAT SHE INVITES IN AN ADVISORY CAPACITY.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? WELL IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S HAPPENING IN A PARK PERHAPS THE CITY MANAGER THOUGHT THE ADVISORY GROUP WOULD BE A GOOD GROUP TO INVOLVE.
IF IT'S ANOTHER BUSINESS IT MIGHT BE A CAB THAT MIGHT BE A
[00:10:02]
GOOD ADVISORY CAPACITY THERE. WE'RE GOING TO ADD ANOTHER WING TO THE LIBRARY, WOULDN'T THAT BE GREAT? MAYBE WE WOULD BRING IN THE FRIENDS OF LIBRARY TO BE AN ADVISOR. MAYBE THE CITY MANAGER FINDS THERE IS SOME OTHER RESIDENT OR RESIDENT GROUP THAT COULD PROVIDE SOME REALLY GOOD INPUT SO WHAT WE WOULD DO IS BRING THEM IN FOR THEIR ADVISING AND THEN THE CITY MANAGER IN THAT GROUP WOULD PROVIDE IT TO YOU AND YOU ALL WOULD BE THE ULTIMATE DECIDING FACTOR. SO SUPPOSE YOUR DEVELOPER SAYS I DON'T WANT TO BOTHER PICKING OUT SOME ARTWORK OR TRYING TO PROPOSE THAT. WELL WHAT WE COULD DO INSTEAD IS CREATE A CITY PUBLIC ART FUND. AND IN WHICH CASE THEY WOULD HAVE TO PAY A LITTLE BIT LESS THAN THEY WOULD OTHERWISE, 40 CENTS PER QUESTIONNAIRE FOOT FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT AND 20 CENTS PER SQUARE FOOT FOR A REMODELING OR CONVERSION.AND THE CITY MANAGER COULD TAKE A LOOK ONCE A YEAR TO SEE HOW MUCH IS IN THAT FUND TO SEE IF THAT'S ENOUGH FOR US TO CONSIDER PURCHASING OR COMMISSIONING A PIECE OF PUBLIC ART.
SO IN THIS CASE, NOT ONLY WOULD THE CITY COMMISSION BE THE ULTIMATE DECIDER AS TO WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT THAT PIECE OF ARTWORK BUT YOU WOULD DECIDE ON THE LOCATION OF THE ARTWORK.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE IN THE CITY ART FUND WE'VE GOT ENOUGH TO PUT SOMETHING IN A BRAND-NEW PARK OR IN A PLACE THAT WE THINK IS MORE APPROPRIATE, THEN YOU ALL WOULD GET TO DECIDE THAT AS WELL.
THERE'S ALSO AN OPPORTUNITY IF YOU'VE GOT LET'S SAY A RESIDENT THAT SAYS I LOCH PUBLIC ART, I WANT TO HELP FUND PUBLIC ART SO I WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME MONEY. THEY COULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE CITY'S PUBLIC ART FUND AS WELL UNDERSTANDING OF COURSE THAT THE ULTIMATE DECISION MAKER WOULD BE THE CITY COMMISSION.
SO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ALL OF OUR ADV ADVISORY GROUPS OR YU WOULD NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT AND THESE WOULD BE CRITERIA AT A MINIMUM IS THINGS LIKE WHETHER OR NOT THE ARTWORK IS APPROPRIATE TO THAT SITE, WHETHER OR NOT THE ARTWORK IS APPROPRIATE TO THE CITY'S VISION MISSION VALUES AND SLRN OR IDENTITY. WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE REALLY GOOD VISUAL ACCESSIBILITY TO PEDESTRIAN OR TRAFFIC, THE QUALITY OF THE ART WORK, HERE IS AN IMPORTANT ONE, IS WHETHER OR NOT THE ART ARTWORK INT RESEMBLR LOGO, WHAT THE REQUIREMENTS ARE FOR THE ARTWORK. ONE THING THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO YOU ALL THAT WE ALL HEARD AT THE LAST WORKSHOP TOO IS WE WANT TO COMMIT TO ADDING OR REVITALIZING ANY ART OR ARTISTIC ELEMENTS IN EVERYTHING THAT WE DO HERE IN THE CITY.
SO I BELIEVE THE VICE MAYOR HAD MENTIONED MAYBE IN WEDGE PRESERVE PARK IF WE'VE GOT A SPLASH PAD OR SOME OF THE RUBBERIZED SURFACE WE PUT AN ARTISTIC ELEMENT IN THAT.
WE MAKE A COMMITMENT MOVING FORWARD THAT WE ALWAYS ADD ART OR ARTISTIC ELEMENTS TO OUR PROJECTS.
AND PUBLIC ART FUND COULD BE USED FOR THOSE KIND OF ENDEAVORS. ONE OTHER THING THAT I THINK WOULD BE GREAT TO INVITE THE PUBLIC TO KNOW WHERE THE PUBLIC ART IS IN THE CITY, IS TO ADD TO OUR GIS SITE WHERE WE RIGHT NOW HAVE OUR HISTORICAL SOCIETY PORTALS.
WE'VE GOT THE MAP, WE'VE GOT THE PHOTOS, IT IS A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN LEARN MORE. SO WE COULD HAVE ANOTHER PAGE THERE WITH ALL OF THE PUBLIC ART IN THE CITY CATALOGED THERE.
THE MAPS, THE PICTURES, PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW WHERE PUBLIC ART IS, THEY HAVE ONE PLACE THEY CAN GO TO FIND IT AND GO DISCOVER IT FOR THEMSELVES. SO AGAIN NOT A BIG, FULL BLOWN FORMAL PROGRAM BUT WE WANTED THIS TO BE SMOOTH, PARKLAND LIKE, NICE TRANSITION INTO MAKING SURE WE ARE MINDFULLY
ADDING ART TO OUR COMMUNITY. >> I THINK EVERYTHING YOU DID
>> I HAVE A MORE COMMON QUESTION, I THINK THAT'S REALLY GREAT CONCEPT OF HOW WE DO THE FUNDRAISING BECAUSE IT IS ALMOST LIKE AN IMPACT FEE WITHOUT KIND OF CALLING IT IMPACT FEE BUT HAS THE SAME EFFECT. AND I ALSO REALLY LIKE THE GIS SYSTEM BECAUSE I THINK WE GO BACK TO LIKE WHAT IS ART, RIGHT? I DON'T THINK WE NEED A 27 FOOT WALL OF, YOU KNOW, STAINLESS STEEL. IT WOULD EVEN BE FUN TO START HAVING MICROART IDEAS OF THINGS THAT ARE KIND OF SMALLER, WE DO THESE SCAVENGER HUNTS IN THE STIFF GO FIND THIS GO FIND THAT.
I THINK IT WOULD BE FUN TO HAVE CERTAIN SMALL, WHETHER IT'S AN EAGLE OR WE DO BUTTERFLIES OR MSD WHATEVER IT IS, THINGS THAT DON'T HAVE TO BE THIS MASSIVE THING YOU COMMISSION AND BUY BUT SOMETHING THAT ADDS MORE ELEMENT OF LIKE YOU SAID OF KIND OF, YOU KNOW, I GUESS IDENTITY OR WHAT HAVE YOU, YOU KNOW SOMETHING TO THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. BUT I ALSO THINK IT'S IMPORTANTLY THAT WHEN YOU WENT BACK TO THE BENEFACTORS AND I DON'T KNOW, I'LL LEAVE IT TO THE COMMISSION TO TALK ABOUT BUT
[00:15:04]
SOME MAY WANT AN EARMARK, NOT WHAT THE ARTWORK IS GOING TO BE, BUT IF YOU ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO DONATE, TO HAVE SOME ELEMENT SAY WITHOUT ACTUALLY HAVING THE CHROME OVER WHAT IT IS, YOU MAY ENCOURAE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO ADD DIFFERENT ELEMENTS TO DIFFERENT PLACES IN THE CITY AND CONTRIBUTE.LIBERTY PARK IS AN EXAMPLE, I KNOW IT'S APPLES AND ORANGES BUT PEOPLE MAY SAY I WANT TO HAVE THIS IN MY CITY AND THEY MAY
WANT TO PAY FOR IT. >> THANK YOU.
BE. >> WE'LL MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT
[4.B. Photo Speed Enforcement Program]
PROGRAM. GREAT.NEXT WE HAVE IS THE PHOTO SPEED ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM.
BSO WILL COME UP AND PRESENT AND EXPLAIN HOW THIS PROGRAM WORKS AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A DISCUSSION IF THIS IS SOMETHING YOU ALL WOULD LIKE FOR CITY TO PURSUE IN THE FUTURE.
>> GOOD EVENING EVERYBODY. PHOTO SPEED ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM.
A NEW RESOLUTION TOOK EFFECT THIS YEAR, ORIENTED TOWARDS SAFETY, SO I'M GOING TO GO OVER A FEW FLORIDA STATE STATUTES WITH YOU, JUST TO FAMILIARIZE YOU WITH WHAT'S GOING ON OR WHAT'S ON THE TABLE ANYWAY. 316.008 AUTHORIZES A MUNICIPALITY TO INSTALL OR CONTRACT WITH A STROARND INSTALL A SPEED DETECTION SYSTEM WITHIN A SCHOOL ZONE.
ACTING AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE INSTALLATION AND REQUIRES A MUNICIPALITY TO MAKE A DETERMINATION AT A PUBLIC HEARING. ALSO REQUIRES THE MUNICIPALITY TO PROVIDE NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH SIGNAGE THAT WOULD BE POSTED LEADING UP INTO THE SCHOOL ZONE.
SIGNAGE MUST INDICATE PHOTOGRAPHIC OR VIDEO ENFORCEMENT IN THE SCHOOL ZONE FOR THE FEED LIMITS.
THE SIREN AN SHALL CLEARLY DESIGNATE THE TIME PERIOD FOR THE SPEED LIMIT ENFORCEMENT AND MUST MEET THE INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS ESTABLISHED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. NOW THOSE GUIDELINES HAVE NOT BEEN SUBMITTED YET, D.O.T. HAS UNTIL DECEMBER 31ST OF THIS YEAR TO PUSH THAT OUT SO IT IS STILL IN THE WORKS.
OICIAL YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CONDUCT A PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN WITHIN 30 DAYS, SOCIAL MEDIA AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE COULD PISH OUT THINGS TO THE SCHOOL AND OBVIOUSLY YOU WOULD LIMIT THE PENALTIES DURING THAT AWARENESS CAMPAIGN.
TYPICALLY THEY WOULD GET A WARNING NOTICE IN THE MAIL IS ESSENTIALLY HOW IT WOULD PLAY OUT.
IT AUTHORIZES TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT OFFICER TO ISSUE A OOURCH FORM TRAFFIC CITATION FOR CERTAIN VIOLATIONS.
SO THE SPEED LIMIT WOULD HAVE TO BE IN EXCESS OF 10 MILES AN HOUR, EVERYTHING 11 MILES AN HOUR UP THEY WOULD BE CITED AND THIS TAKES PLACE BETWEEN 30 MINUTES BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS TO 30 MINUTES AFTER SCHOOL ENDS. SO ESSENTIALLY DURING THE SCHOOL ZONE TIME FRAME WHEN THE BEACON IS ACTIVE THEY WOULD BE CITED FOR ANYTHING OVER THE 15. SO 26 AND UP THEY WOULD BE CITED. WHEN THE BEACON IS NOT ACTIVE THE NORMAL SPEED LIMIT WOULD APPLY AND THEY COULD STILL BE CITED FOR THAT. DURING THE ENTIRE SCHOOL DAY THEY COULD BE CITED FOR SPEEDING WHETHER IT'S WITHIN THE SCHOOL ZONE TIME TRAIL OR OUTSIDE THAT PARAMETER WITHIN THE SCHOOL DAY.
>> ARE YOU SAYING THEY COULD BE CITED BASED OFF THE CAMERA? THEY COULD'S BE CITED IN GENERAL, USING THE CAMERA TO
ISSUE CITATION. >> IT'S KIND OF LIKE THE RED LIGHT CAMERA. YOU WOULD HAVE THE CAMERA UP THERE, TAKE A PICTURE, USE LASER OR RADAR, GET A PICTURE OF THEIR TAG AND ESSENTIALLY SEND THEM A CITATION IN THE MAIL.
>> THAT IS A MOVING VIOLATION? >> IT IS A CIVIL PENALTY ONLY
NOT A MOVING VIOLATION. >> I KNOW THIS WAS ACTUALLY JUST LEGISLATED BUT WASN'T THERE ACTUALLY A LEGAL CHALLENGE TO THE RED LIGHT CAMERAS, THAT'S WHY THEY WERE REMOVED? HOW DO WE DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THAT, EVEN THOUGH THE LEGISLATURE PASSED IT, WE DON'T END UP IN THE SAME PLACE WHERE SOMEONE FILES A LAWSUIT, QUHALINGS IT AND WE ARE BROUGHT INTO IT? -- ARE CHALLENGES IT AND WE ARE
BROUGHT INTO IT? >> WE CAN CERTAINLY EXPLORE THAT AND WE WHERE THE RED LIGHT CAMERAS FAILED AND WHERE THE
ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE THERE. >> I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOU, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG BUT I DO BELIEVE AN OFFICER DOES REVIEW THE FOOTAGE AS WELL BEFORE A CITATION IS ISSUED.
>> OF COURSE, I WAS GOING TO GET INTO THAT.
ESSENTIALLY THE WAY IT WORKS IS THE CAMERA WILL TAKE A PICTURE, TILL GO TOO TO A VENDOR, THE VENDOR WILL ENSURE THAT THAT IS
[00:20:05]
REGISTERED TO THAT MA MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE, WE WILL THEN THE VENDOR WILL MAIL OUT THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION.THERE IS AN EXTENSIVE VERIFICATION PROCESS THAT COMES
INTO THIS. >> THEY WOULD SEND A PICTURE OR
VIDEO? >> SOME VENDORS JUST SEND PICTURES, OTHERS DO VIDEOS. BUT EITHER WAY THE CITATION WOULD SHOW YOUR CAR AND LICENSE PLATE.
YOU CAN WATCH YOUR VIDEO IF THERE IS A VIDEO OR SEE THE STILL IMAGE OF THE VIOLATION AND YOU CAN EITHER PAY THE FINE OR
GO THROUGH WITH A FIELD PROCESS. >> YOUR SAME SPEED MONITOR --
>> AND THIS IS SOMETHING WE THINK IS NEEDED?
SORRY. >> THE WAY IT WORKS IS THE COMPANY WOULD COME OUT AND THEY WOULD DO A SURVEY AND PROVIDE THOSE RESULTS TO YOU GUYS FOR CONSIDERATION.
>> IS THIS ALSO (INAUDIBLE). >> YES.
>> WHY DON'T YOU CONTINUE WITH YOUR PRESENTATION AND THEN WE'LL
BE OPEN TO QUESTIONS. >> ALL RIGHT.
A NOTICE OF VIOLATION MUST BE MADE WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE REGISTERED OWNER WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE VIOLATION, AND THEN DIRECT THEM TO THE WEBSITE WHICH PROVIDES INFORMATION ON THE RIGHTS OF A HEARING WHICH I JUST ALLUDED TO AND MAY REQUEST A HEARING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE VIOLATION.
SO THE HEARING PROCEDURES, THE MIPTION MUST DESIGNATE A MEMBER TO SERVE AS CLERK TO THE HEARING OFFICER, THEY WOULD DO THE SCHEDULING FOR THE HEARING. SWORN TESTIMONY WOULD BE REVIEWED AND PROVIDED AT THE TIME OF THE MAGISTRATE HEARING SO THEY WOULD GET A COPY OF THE VIOLATION.
THE OFFICER WHO AUTHORIZES THE CITATION WOULD HAVE TO TESTIFY AND THE VIDEO AND/OR PICTURES WOULD BE EVIDENCE IN THE CASE.
THE FINAL ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER WOULD BE DETERMINED AND IF FOUND IN VIOLATION, YOU COULD ALSO ASSESS UP TO AN ADDITIONAL $250 IN FEES. THE STATUTE ALSO SPECIFIES THAT THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE MOTOR VEHICLE IS THE ONE THAT IS RESPONSIBLE AND LIABLE FOR PAYING THE UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION. SO IF THEY DIDN'T PAY -- IF THEY DON'T PAY IT, THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO RENEW THEIR LICENSE PLATE.
EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULE, THERE ARE SEVERAL EXCEPTIONS AS FAR AS THE LIABILITY ASPECT IS CONCERNED.
THERE'S AN AFFIDAVIT THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE IF SOMEBODY ELSE WAS DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE WHICH WOULD BE SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW.
WHICH WOULD ESSENTIALLY TRANSFER LIABILITY FROM THE REGISTERED VEHICLE OWNER TO THE PERSON OUTLINED ON THE AFFIDAVIT.
HERE IS A COPY OF OR AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT A NOTICE OF VIOLATION WOULD LOOK LIKE. AS YOU COULD SEE ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE, THERE IS TWO PICTURE THERE ONE FOR THE VEHICLE ONE FOR THE LICENSE PLATE AND THE BASIC INFORMATION AND THE WEBSITE INFORMATION TO GO ON REVIEW PAY OR APPEAL, WHATEVER YOUR PREFERENCE MAY BE. THIS IS THE BACK OF THE CITATION WITH A BUNCH MORE INFORMATION. STATE STATUTE REQUIRES THAT A LOT OF THIS INFORMATION BE APPLIED TO THE VIOLATOR SO THEY CAN GO ON AND LOOK AT THE APPEAL PROCESS IF THEY SO CHOOSE.
THEN I ATTACHED A VIDEO FOR YOU GUYS.
THIS VIDEO ENCOMPASSES A LOT OF IT.
I'M GOING TO PLAY IT FOR YOU, ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LONG AND THEN I HAVE A FEW MORE SLIDES AND WE CAN OPEN UP TO A Q&A.
STATE FOR PEDESTRIANS. TO DISCUSS THIS, HB 657 --
SPEEDING IN SCHOOL ZONES. >> IT IS A STATEWIDE LAW.
SPEED MAY BE ENFORCED ONLY WHEN SCHOOL IS IN SESSION AND A HALF HOUR BEFORE CLASSES START DURING AND A HALF HOUR AFTER SCHOOL ENDS. CAMERAS CAN ONLY BE PLACED IN DESIGNATED SCHOOL ZONES. VIOLATIONS ARE ISSUED FOR SPEEDS EXCEEDING POSTED SPEED LIMIT BY TEN MILES PER HOUR, AND SITES MUST BE POSTED PRIOR TO THE CAMERA LOCATION.
THE MUNICIPALITY OR COUNTY MUST CONDUCT AN PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN AND ISSUE A WARNINGS 30 DAYS PLIER TO COMMENCING ENFORCEMENT. THERE IS A $100 CIVIL PENALTY, 60% IS RETAINED BY THE MUNICIPALITY, 40% IS DIVIDED BETWEEN VARIOUS STATE PROGRAMS. RED SPEED FLORIDA IS A TURNKEY
[00:25:04]
SPEED PHOTO ENFORCEMENT PROVIDER WITH TWO DECADES OF EXPERIENCE IN CREATING AND MAINTAINING PHOTO ENFORCEMENT PROGRAMS FOR OVER 120 COMMUNITIES IN FOUR STATES.RED SPEED WILL HELP YOU IDENTIFY POSSIBLE CAMERA LOCATIONS BY CONDUCTING IN DEPTH SPEED STUDIES, COMPILE ALL NECESSARY PAPER WORK FOR PERMIT APPLICATIONS, PURCHASE, INSTALL AND MAINTAIN CAMERA EQUIPMENT AND PROVIDE FULL BACK OFFICE SUPPORT FOR THE ENTIRE VIOLATION LIFE CYCLE.
ALL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED AT NO COST OF YOUR COMMUNITY AND PROVIDED BY THE EXCEEDING SPEED LIMITS.
PROVIDE YOUR POLICE DEPARTMENT WITH INVALUABLE VIDEO AND LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION CAPABILITY USED FOR DETERMINING CRIMINAL OR CIVIL LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTS CAPTURED BY THE SPEED INCIDENTAL SYSTEM, RED SPEEDS TURNKEY PHOTO ENFORCEMENT SOLUTION IMPROVES SCHOOL ZONE SAFETY, PROVIDES REVENUE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY INITIATIVES AND COMES AT NO COST TO THE MUNICIPALITY. BASED ON CUSTOMER NEEDS AND ENFORCEMENT LOCATION RED SPEED USES EITHER A 3D TRACKING RADAR OR LANE SPECIFIC LYDAR, LAIN SPECIFIC IDENTIFICATION AND SPEED TRIGGERS THAT RECORD ACCURATE SPEEDS WITHIN PLUS OR MINUS ONE MILE PER HOUR. OUR CAMERA IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO SIMULTANEOUSLY TRACK 350 OBJECTS IN ITS FIELD OF VIEW.
IN ADDITION TO ISSUING SPEED VIOLATIONS COMPREHENSIVE SPEED STATISTICS ARE COMPILED BY THE SYSTEM AND CAN HELP CLIENTS DETERMINE IF THERE IS A NEED FOR ADDITIONAL ENFORCEMENT.
THE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE A DAZELY START UP CALIBRATION CHECK AND WILL START ONLY AFTER ALL CHECKS ARE PASSED SFERL.
SUCCESSFULLY. REQUEST BE CONCONFIGURED TO WORE WORK WITH LICENSE PLATE. VIDEO AR CIEIVE T CIEFER.
ARCHIVE. CONSISTENT WITH STATE LAW FOR DETERMINING CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LIABILITY FOR EVENTS CAPTURED INCIDENTAL TO ENFORCEMENTS. AUTHORIZED USERS CAN ACCESS HD VIDEO FROM ANY OF THE OVERVIEW CAMERA STREAMS DEFINE THE TIME OF INTEREST AND DOWNLOAD THE VIDEO CLIPS DIRECTLY ON THEIR DEVICE. DIRECTED VIDEO IN THE SCHOOL ZONE MAY ONLY BE USED TO DOCUMENT VIOLATION HE OF SS 316, CRIMINAL OR CIVIL LIABILITY. FOR INCIDENTS CAPTURED BY THE SPEED DETECTION INCIDENTAL TO THE SPEED DETECTION SYSTEM.
LANE SPECIFIC VIDEO, COLOR, MAKE, MODEL, AND LICENSE PLATE IMAGES FOR ALL LANES OF ENFORCEMENT.
COMBINATION OF OVERVIEW VIDEO AND LAIN SPECIFIC VIDEO ALLOWS FOR CRIME INVESTIGATORS TO NOT ONLY TRACE A VEHICLE THROUGH INTERSECTION BUT ALSO READ ITS PLATE.
LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION, THE LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION MODULE IS A REALTIME LICENSE PLATE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM, CENTRAL PLATE ARCHIVE, WORKS SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH THE SPEED ENFORCEMENT SYSTEM. LPR LEVERAGES EXISTING HARDWARE, VIDEO CAMERA'S FIELD OF VIEW. LPR SUPPORTS REALTIME AMBER ALERT FUNCTIONALITY TO INDIVIDUAL OR GROUPS OF AUTHORIZED RECIPIENTS. LPR CAN IMPORT EXISTING STATE AND FEDERAL HOT LISTS, GENERATE CUSTOM HOT LISTS AND EXPORT PLATE DATABASES, TO THIRD PARTIES ALREADY IN USE BY THE
CUSTOMER. >> OKAY SO THAT WAS THE VIDEO.
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF POTENTIAL SIGNAGE.
THE ONLY REQUIREMENT IS THAT THE PHOTO ENFORCEMENT SIGN HAS TO BE APPLIED LEADING INTO THE SCHOOL ZONE.
THE REST IS AT YOUR PREFERENCE. AND THAT'S THE END OF THE SLIDE SO I'M SURE YOU HAVE QUITE A FEW QUESTIONS.
I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO ANSWER.
>> VS. THE AI CONVERSATION THAT WE HAD -- HAVING THE AI CONVERSATION WE HAD THIS MORNING, IT'S A LITTLE BIT SCARY, IT'S NICE BUT IT HAS SOME BENEFITS, IT IS A LITTLE SCARY.
THE ONE THING I DO LIKE IS IT HAS THE LICENSE PLATE READER, I
ASSUME THAT IS 24-7? >> YES, THAT IS A HUGE BENEFIT TO US. OBVIOUSLY A STOLEN CAR COMING INTO THE CITY OR ENDANGERED PERSON WITH THAT TAG REGISTERED TO THEM, STOP A CRIME OR FIND SOMEBODY THAT IS IN NEED OF SOME
[00:30:02]
TYPE OF SERVICES. >> I DON'T MIND YOU DON'T GET A TICKET NO. YOU ARE 11 MILES AN HOUR OVER THE SPEED LIMIT WHICH IS PRETTY LIBERAL. YOU KNOW SO IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S TWO MILES OVER THE SPEED LIMENTD.
LIMIT.I'M CURIOUS, I DON'T KNOWW MUCH SPEED TRAFFIC WE DO NOW TO KNOW IF THIS IS AN ISSUE. BUT I DO REALLY LIKE THE LICENSE
AND AS FAR AS THE SPEEDING GOES, THE COMPANIES WOULD COME OUT FREE OF CHARGE OBVIOUSLY, THEY WOULD DO A FIVE DAY SURVEY OBVIOUSLY WHEN SCHOOL IS IN SESSION TO GIVE YOU GUYS ALL THE DATA THAT YOU NEED TO MAKE A DECISION WHETHER IT'S SOMETHING YOU WANT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH OR NOT.
>> ARE YOU -- YOU DIDN'T PUT ANYTHING ABOUT COST OR ANYTHIG, I MEAN IT SAYS THE COSTS ARE RECOUPED BUT THERE'S GOT TO BE
AN INITIAL OUTLAY. >> THEY PAY FOR EVERYTHING UP FRONT. THE BREAKDOWN, THEY GET A PORTION OF THE $60 AMOUNT THAT GOES TO THE CITY.
WHICH WOULD PROBABLY BE UP FOR NEGOTIATION BETWEEN YOU AND
THEM. >> THE LONG TERM RECOUPMENT OF THOSE MONEYS. WE HAVE 6 PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE AREA TWO PRIVATE THAT I'M AWARE OF.
I DON'T KNOW IF THEY FALL INTO THE SCHOOL ZONES.
>> AS LONG AS THERE IS A SCHOOL BEACON IT WOULD APPLY TO THAT
GOAL. >> YOU WOULD NEED CAMERAS FROM WHATEVER DIFFERENT ANGLES, INTERSECTIONS, ET CETERA.
>> YES. >> MULTIPLE SIGNS THAT WOULD
>> AROUND THE CITY. >> ON UNIVERSITY, NO NOB HILL.
>> I'M GOING TO START BY SAYING I'M ALL FOR SCHOOL SAFETY.
I WILL START WITH THAT. BUT I THINK THIS GOES A LITTLE BIT BEYOND THE PALE AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUSLY A PRIVATE ENTERPRISE, THEY HAVE NIEK MONEY.
THE OBVIOUS QUESTION THE MAYOR ASKED, THE SMARTEST WAY TO GO, HOW MANY TICKETS ARE WE ISSUING HOW MANY ACCIDENTS ON A YEARLY BASIS. WHAT I'D HATE TO DO IS TRY OSOLVE A PROBLEM THAT DOESN'T EXIST AND CREATE NEW PROBLEMS IN
THE PROCESS. >> I CAN TELL YOU THERE IS SPEEDING IN THE SCHOOL ZONES. MOTORMEN ARE ISSUING TICKETS.
>> WITHIN A TEN MILE DELTA. >> POTENTIALLY.
>> WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT IS ONE, THIS IS ENCOURAGING CITATION IN A WAY BECAUSE IT HAS TO VALIDATE AND HAS TO JUSTIFY ITS EXISTENCE RIGHT? THE ONLY WAY IT MAKES SENSE FINANCIALLY IS TO MILC SURE TICKETS ARE CONTINUING TO BE GIVEN. TWO WE TALK ABOUT THE LICENSE PLATE READERS. I'M CONFUSED BECAUSE THE WAY THEY SAID IN THE VIDEO IS IT'S ONLY INTENDED TO BE FOR THE I GUESS THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE SPEED BUT NOW IT'S SEEMS TO BE SUGGEST YOU THAT THIS IS USED INDEPENDENTLY, MORE OF A LAW ENFORCEMENT TOOL RATHER THAN JUST A SPEED CONTROL DEVICE.
>> YES, THERE IS AN LPR WITHIN THE SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES US DATA 24-7. SO LIKE I SAID IF A STOLEN CAR COMES THROUGH CITY OR A MENACING PERSON, THAT WOULD ALERT US IMMEDIATELY AND WE WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE ACTION.
>> IT SAYS IT TAKES PICTURES OF EVERY SINGLE LICENSE PLATE.
>> THAT IS AGAIN, I WAS TAKING NOTES OF HOW IT CAN BE ACCESSED FOR AUTHORIZED USERS FOR HD VIDEO FOR CRIMINAL OR CIVIL LIABILITY. I MEAN I JUST HAVE TO -- I HAVE TO THINK THERE'S PROBABLY A LESSER INVASIVE WAY FOR US TO CONTROL THESE THINGS AND IF WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HAVING A LICENSE PLATE READER I WOULD IMAGINE WE COULD BUY THOSE INDEPENDENTLY, RIGHT? AND --
>> CORRECT SO LET ME CLARIFY A LITTLE MORE.
SO THE SPEED CAMERAS THAT WOULD BE ESSENTIALLY FUNCTIONING DURING THE DAY AND THE LPR'S ARE 24-7, OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY THERE THEMSELVES. IF SOMEBODY CAME IN AND LET ME BACK UP. AS FAR AS THE SURVEILLANCE ASPECT GOES, I THINK THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT, WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO CONTINUOUSLY WATCH.
THE STATUTE SPECIFICALLY SAYS WE CANNOT USE IT FOR THAT FUNCTION, WE CAN ONLY WATCH IT IN THE EVENT SOMETHING HAPPENED.
SOMETHING CRIMINAL OCCURRED WE CAN GO BACK AND REVIEW THAT VIDEO AND POTENTIALLY FIND EVIDENCE OF WHATEVER IT WAS, WITH WHATEVER TYPE OF CRIME. NOT FOR REALTIME MONITORING OF
THE COMMUNITY. >> I JUST WANT TO --
>> GO AHEAD. >> SORRY, IT'S HARD TO INTERJECT BUT I JUST WANT TO SAY NO FAMILY HAS BEEN AFFECTED MORE BY A SPEEDING DRIVER, DEVASTATING FAMILY AND KILLING A NUMBER MORE THAN HAS MINE. BUT SO I'M SENSITIVE TO ALL THESE ISSUES. BUT AS I UNDERSTAND IT, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT THE DSO WENT OUT AND THIS IS A VENDOR THAT
[00:35:05]
CAME TO US AS SORT OF A SOLVE IT OF TOPIC BUSINESS PROPOSING THIS RIGHT? THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT BSO HAS SAID WE NEED THIS TOOL IS THAT RIGHT?>> THIS TOPIC CAME UP A FEW COMMISSION MEETINGS AGO WHEN THE LAW TOOK PLACE. IT WAS BROUGHT UP WITHIN THE CHAMBERS AND WE WERE JUST EXPLORING THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE TO YOU ENJOYS TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION WHATEVER IT IS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO PROCEED WITH.
>> AND TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION OF COURSE WE RECEIVED NUMEROUS E-MAILS FROM A VARIETY OF VENDORS, THEY'RE OUT THERE KNOCKING ON DOORS OF MUNICIPALITIES.
>> I MEAN THE LAW JUST PASSED. OF COURSE THERE ARE PEOPLE --
>> RIGHT, AND ACTUALLY ANTHONY, YOU COULD SPEAK ON THIS, DEERFIELD IS ALREADY LOOKING AT PURSUING THIS ONCE WE KNOW THE FINAL SIGNAGE REQUIREMENT FROM F DOT.
>> SO SEVERAL OF OUR FIRM MUNICIPAL CLIENTS --
>> AND THAT WAS MY NEXT QUESTION.
>> SEVERAL OF OUR FIRM'S MUNICIPAL CLIENTS ARE PURSUING THIS. GO AHEAD.
COMMISSIONER. >> ANTHONY IS GOING TO LET US
>> INCLUDING BY THE WAY, WE REPRESENT THE VILLAGE OF PINECREST. THEY MAY BE THE FURTHEST ALONG, BUT CITY OF DEER BEACH A NOT FAR FROM HERE, THEY ARE ACTUALLY CONSIDERING THE ORDINANCE THAT WAS MENTIONED ON FIRST READING.
THEY WENT AHEAD AND DID THE STUDY THAT WAS REQUIRED TO BE DONE. BASED ON THAT INFORMATION THEY DIRECTED MOVING FORWARD AND SO THAT'S WHERE THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS. TO THE CITY MANAGER'S POINT YEAH OBVIOUSLY WE NEED TO GET THAT INFORMATION FROM F DOT BEFORE YOU CAN SNAWLT ALL OF THAT SETUP, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE SPECS BUT I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY.
>> THEY DO A SURVEY FOR US TO SEE IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S EVEN -- YOU KNOW, THAT IT'S WARRANTED.
SO IN MY OPINION YOU COULD DO THE SURVEY AND IF IT COMES BACK
AND SAYS WELL -- >> AND IT'S REQUIRED.
BEFORE YOU CAN MOVE FORWARD IN THIS DIRECTION THERE NEEDS TO BE A STUDY THAT'S CONDUCTED AND THEN ULTIMATELY THE COMMISSION VIA AN ORDINANCE WOULD NEED TO MAKE A FINDING THAT THERE'S A HEIGHTENED THREAT OF RISK. BASED ON THE AT THIS TIME DAD THAT'S PROVIDED TO YOU AND OTHER DATA CONSIDERED AT A PUBLIC
>> WHO DID THAT STUDY? THE COMPANY, THE VENDOR DOES IT OR THE CITY HAS TO GO OUT AND GET AN INDEPENDENT STUDY?
>> IN THAT CASE THE VENDOR DID IT AND I THINK GENERALLY FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THE VENDORS WILL COME OUT DO IT FOR YOU FREE OF CHARGE OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE TRYING TO GET A CONTRACT.
>> AND FROM WHAT I UNDERSTOOD, IN ORDER TO PROSECUTE THESE PARTICULAR THINGS IT'S EITHER AN ADMINISTRATIVE OR I GUESS TRAFFIC COURT KIND OF PROCEEDING BUT YOU WOULD NEED OFFICERS TO GO IN AND VERIFY THE ACTUAL VIDEO OR WHAT HAVE YOU WHICH WOULD MEAN WE WOULD NEED POTENTIALLY AN INCREAE IN PERHAPS ANOTHER OFFICER OR SOMEBODY THAT DEDICATED TO FOLLOWING UP ON THAT KIND OF STUFF, AND IS THAT A CHARGE THAT'S ALSO INCLUDED IN THE VENDOR INDICATING THAT THEY'RE PAYING FOR STUFF? OR IS THAT SOMETHING THAT INDEPENDENTLY THE MUNICIPALITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR?
>> SO MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE $60 FEE THAT WAS MENTIONED THAT GOES TO THE MUNICIPALITY IS INTENDED TO COVER ANY COSTS THAT THE MUNICIPALITY WOULD INCUR FOR THE PROGRAM.
>> WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE DEPUTY OR CENTER REVIEWING IT AND THAT IS PART OF TIME THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO APPLY TOWARDS IT.
THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT. >> I THINK WE WOULD HAVE DOZENS AND DOZENS OF PEOPLE WE WOULD BE REVIEWING EVERY DAY I DON'T THINK. I THINK IF YOU WARN PEOPLE WITH SIGNS THAT THERE'S VIDEO RECORDING I WOULD ASSUME MOST PEOPLE WOULD ADHERE TO THE SPEED.
>> AND COULD YOU ADD MORE SIGNAGE IF YOU FELT IT WAS RELEVANT. SOME COMPANIES OFFER TO PUT A REALTIME SPEED DISPLAY AS YOU'RE COMING IN SO IT'S A WARNING.
YOU'RE ENTERING AN ENFORCEMENT ZONE, HERE IS ANOTHER WARNING, HERE IS YOUR ACTUAL SPEED AND THEN IF YOU CONTINUE TO SPEED
AFTER THAT THEN YOU GET CITED. >> THAT IS ANOTHER ADDITIONAL THINGS IN OUR ROADWAY SO WE HAVE A LOT OF SIGNAGE ALREADY SO WE'RE NOW GOING TO BE ADDING CAMERAS, SPEED ZONES.
>> WE'RE NOT A LARGE CITY RIGHT? LARGE CITIES WHEN YOU HAVE A SCHOOL ZONE THAT IS IN ITS OWN SPACE YOU HAVE SIGNAGE.
BUT OURS ARE COMPACT. YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SIGNS LOOKS LIKE ON EVERY BLOCK. THE QUESTION I ASK IS IS THIS ADMINISTRATIVE, MEANING IT IS IN A COURT OR WE HAVE ONE LIKE
MAGISTRATE WHO IS GOING TO -- >> YOU WOULD HAVE A IMAGINE MAGISTRATEIF YOU HAVE ANYONE WH TO --
>> YOU COULD FINE THEM UP TO ANOTHER $250.
>> THE TICKET IS $100 AND THEN WE COULD ADD AN ADMIN FEE THAT
[00:40:02]
WOULD, YOU KNOW, BE 15 MINUTES OF A SPECIAL IMAGINE STRAIGHT'STIME OR SOMETHING ADDED. >> I GET IT.
I'M JUST SAYING WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT HOW THERE IS ALWAYS SO MUCH GOING ON IN OUR CITY, WE ADD ANOTHER -- WE EVEN TALK ABOUT BEING RELUCTANT TO ADD A SUBCOMMITTEE BECAUSE OF OH NOW STAFF HAS TO OVERSEE IT. I MEAN TO ME IT'S ALWAYS LIKE A COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS AND OBVIOUSLY WE ALL AGREE SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT. BUT I HAVE TO WONDER IF THERE ARE LESSER MEANS TO ACCOMPLISH THAT SAME GOAL, TALK ABOUT WE HAVE SIGNS SHOWING PEOPLE SPEED, THERE IS ALSO SIGNS THAT SAY THIS IS THE SPEED ZONE AND THIS IS THE SPEED LIMIT AND IF PEOPLE NEED A SECONDARY SIGN SAYING THERE'S A CAMERA WACHTION YOU AND YET THEY'RE STILL ALLOWED TO GO TEN MILES OVER THAT SPEED I DON'T KNOW HOW HELPFUL THAT IS GOING TO BE.
>> HOW MUCH DO LICENSE PLATE READERS COST?
>> THERE ARE MULTIPLE VENDORS. SOME ARE AS CHEAP AS $3,000 A YEAR AND SOME ARE MORE PER CAMERA.
IF YOU NEEDED TWO, ONE FOR EASTBOUND AND WESTBOUND, THAT'S 6,000 A YEAR. THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE THE
BEST VENDOR. >> THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT THAT WE HAVE TO PUT THIS IN EVERY SCHOOL ZONE, CORRECT?
>> THAT IS CORRECT. >> I MEAN MY RESPONSE IS GO FORWARD WITH THE SURVEY. SEE WHAT -- I MEAN WHERE THE AREAS ARE, THE POSSIBLE NEED. I MEAN I COULD TELL YOU UNIVERSITY DRIVE, WITH MARY HELP, THEY ARE SPEEDING THERE TON OF INFORMATION ALL THE TIME NUMBER 1.
NUMBER 2 THAT'S AN ENTRANCE WAY TO THE CITY.
SO THAT'S KIND OF LIKE A DUAL PURPOSE.
PARKSIDE DRIVE, I DON'T WANT TO SAY THERE IS OR THERE ISN'T BUT THE LIKELIHOOD OF SOMEBODY SPEEDING DURING SCHOOL TIME IS PROBABLY HARD BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH TRAFFIC THERE.
THE LIKELIHOOD ESPECIALLY WITH LOCKS ROAD IS VERY DIFFICULT BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC. I WOULD IMAGINE THAT AND AGAIN WHETHER A VENDOR WANTS TO TAKE ON THE FACT THAT YOU ONLY HAVE, YOU KNOW WE MAY HAVE LIKE EIGHT SCHOOL ZONES BUT WE'RE ONLY GOING TO TRY TO USE ONE, GETS BACK TO ME I WOULD SUPPORT DOING THE SURVEY AND SEE WHAT IT SAYS. WE MAY NOT EVEN QUALIFY.
>> I THINK THAT IS A GREAT IDEA. I LIKE THE IDEA OF JUST DOING IT IN THAT ONE AREA BECAUSE YOU'RE RIGHT IT IS THE INGRESS EGRESS IN THE CITY AND IF WE ARE TALKING ABOUT BEING ABLE TO TRACK CARS THAT SHOULDN'T BE HERE OR LEESK HERE AFTER THEY COMMITTED A CRIME, CAMERAS AROUND THE ENTIRE CITY, TALK ABOUT TODAY WHERE IT'S AGAIN KIND OF LIKE PEOPLE YOU WANT THEM TO FEEL SAFE IN THEIR COMMUNITY BUT YOU ALSO WANT THEM FEELING LIKE, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE BEING, YOU KNOW, SPIED UPON OR THAT IT'S BECOME SO LAW ENFORCEMENT HEAVY.
LOOK WE HAVE INTHEM IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IN WATERRIEST AND OF COURSE WITH GOOD INTENTION YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT GO CRAZY BECAUSE YOU HAVE SOMETIMES WHERE SOMEONE HAS A BABYSITTER OR SOMEONE COMING INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT GIVES THE TICKET TO THE HOMEOWNER. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOUR CAR, YOU CAN GIVE AN AFFIDAVIT AND ALL THIS, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE'RE DOING IS NOT CREATING MORE OF A HEADACHE TO RESIDENTS, GO BEYOND THE SURVEY IF WE COULD GET SOME SORT OF DATA FROM BSO WHAT'S HAPPENED IN PARKLAND.
IN THE LAST 24 HOURS HOW MANY SPEEDING TICKETS HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN SCHOOL ZONES, HOW MANY ACCIDENTS OR INCIDENTS MEANING SOMEONE HAS BEEN HIT OR WHATEVER.
I'D LOVE TO SEE MANY OF OUR OWN DATA BECAUSE IF THERE IS THAT BIG OF AN ISSUE THAT THE SURVEY SHOWS I ALSO NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHY IS IT THAT WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING ALREADY?
>> I AGREE WITH THOSE CONCERNS. MY CONCERN IS ALSO IF SOMEONE IS DOING 15 MILES AN HOUR ABOVE THE SPEED LIMIT THROUGH THE SCHOOL ZONE THEY DESERVE GETTING THE TICKET.
>> YES, I AGREE. SO ARE WE IN FAVOR -- THERE IS NO REASON TO TALK MUCH MORE ABOUT IT, DO WE NEED TO DO THE SURVEY AND HAVE FURTHER DISCUSSION AFTER THE SURVEY?
RIGHT? >> I MEAN AS LONG AS THE SURVEY IS SOMETHING THAT'S NOT GOING TO COST THE CITY ANYTHING.
>> SURVEY ON ALL OUR ZONES AND THEN WE'LL ASSESS IT FROM THERE.
[4.C. AI Chatbot]
THE LAST ITEM FOR DISCUSSION IS AI CHATBOT.TODD WILL BE PRESENTING ON THAT. >> ACTUALLY I'M SURPRISED MANAGERS, THAT'S FUNNY. THIS IS GOING TO BE A MUCH LIGHTER NOTE THAN THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION.
[00:45:05]
SO THE CONVERSATION THIS EERVEG IS ABOUT MIGRATING THE WEBSITE TO USE AN AI CHATBOT. IT IS NOT THE INVASIVE SCARY AI THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT THIS MORNING.WE ARE LOOKING TO ENABLE VISIT TOORS OUR WEBSITE TO HAVE AN INCREASED EXPERIENCE, MORE EFFICIENT, MORE EFFECTIVE.
IT WOULD ALSO ENABLE RESIDENTS TO GET INFORMATION FROM US, 24-7, 365, MUCH OUTSIDE THE NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS.
AND WE WOULD BETTER BE ABLE TO E-BLAST OR CELL PHONE NUMBERS.
IT WOULD CERTAINLY NOT BE REQUIRED.
I DON'T THINK THIS IS ROCKET SCIENCE.
WE HAVE ALL BEEN TO WEBSITES THAT UTILIZE A CHATBOT, BUT IN FACT SOME OF YOU HAVE FIRMS THAT UTILIZE THIS.
SO THIS IS ARLINGTON, TEXAS, IT GIVES YOU A HI, HOW ARE YOU? YOU'VE ASKED IT A QUESTION, WHO IS THE CITY COUNCIL, LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT, GETZ THAT, GETST INFORMATION, HERE IS THE CITY COUNCIL, GETS YOU TO WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.
THIS IS R ROSEVILLE, CLAX CALIF, HOW DO I GET A COMMERCIAL BUILDING PERMIT, HERE ARE THE LINKS THAT ARE RELEVANT TO IT.
AND OF COURSE DIFFERENT CITIES WILL HAVE DIFFERENT LOOKS.
THIS IS POLK COUNTY, FLORIDA. YOU SEE IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT. I LIKE WHAT BROWNSVILLE HAS DONE WITH THIS. AND THIS IS CITRUS HEIGHTS,
CALIFORNIA I BELIEVE. >> I DON'T SEE ANY DOWN SIDE TO THIS. I MEAN WHY, I LIKE LOOKING AT YOUR PRESENTATION. I JUST --
>> SO LET ME JUMP TO THAT REAL QUICK.
>> SORRY TO GET YOU TO -- >> NO PLEASE.
I'M ALSO WRAPPING IT UP EARLY. >> THEN KEEP GOING.
I WANT TO SEE THAT. >> EVERY TIME I'M JUST GOING DO SAY I'M SORRY I CAN'T HELP YOU WITH THAT.
AS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A MOBILE APP WHICH HAS ALWAYS BEEN A BUILT WONKY AND NOT TERRIFICALLY POPULAR EVEN WHEN WE PROMOTED IT. THE APP PROVIDER NOW WILL NOT GIVE US A RENEWAL FOR MORE THAN ONE YEAR AT A TIME BECAUSE THEY'RE PHASING IT OUT. SO IT IS BASICALLY AT THE END OF ITS USEFUL LIFE. WHEN WE LOOK AT GETTING A REAL APP BUILT FOR US, THE PRICES GET LOFTY VERY QUICKLY, AS FAR AS THE BUILD AND MAINTENANCE THEREAFTER.
THOSE THINGS MAKE SENSE FOR LARGER CITIES NOT SO MUCH FOR US. WE DO NOT HAVE UTILITIES, WE WILL NOT BE TAKING UTILITY PAYMENTS ON AN APP.
WE DON'T HAVE PUBLIC PARKING SPACES THAT YOU WOULD BE PAYING FOR WITH AN APP OR PAYING CITATIONS WITH AN APP.
>> NOT YET. >> THE PRIMARY FUNCTION OF OUR APP RIGHT NOW IS REPORT A CONCERN FEATURE WHERE SOMEBODY WOULD REPORT A POTHOLE AS YOU SEE HERE IN MY CITRUS HEIGHTS EXAMPLES. AND YOU WOULD SUBMIT THAT VIA THE CHATBOT. SO YOU GO AND CLICK AND IT TAKES YOU WHEREVER WE WANT THEM TO GO. SO THAT'S JUST A QUICK LOOK AT IT. AND WE WOULD TRANSITION FROM THE REPORT A CONCERN TO THE USE IT HERE.
THIS WOULD NOT PRECLUDE US THERE GETTING A MOBILE APP AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE IF WE DECIDE THAT'S THE WAY TO GO BUT FOR THE SMALL NUMBER OF REQUESTS WE ARE GETTING VIA THE APP ON THE REPORT A CONCERN FEATURE WE BELIEVE WE WOULD GET MORE TRACTION HERE. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO WITH THIS IS SERVE MORE RESIDENTS. THIS IS NOT JUST ON THE FRONT PAGE OF OUR WEBSITE, IT IS ON EVERY PAGE OF OUR WEBSITE.
WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE TIME WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE THE RESIDENTS TIME BY GIVING THEM MORE INFORMATION MORE QUICKLY AND HELP THE RESIDENTS GET THEIR QUESTIONS ANSWERED AROUND THE CLOCK. IF WE DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS I THINK WE ARE BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS.
THIS IS THE LOOK OF IT, THE CONTENT, THE RESPONSES AND WE CAN WORK SOME MARKETING INTO IT. IT CAN BE DONE IN MULTIPLE
LANGUAGES, ET CETERA. >> (INAUDIBLE) MOBILE APPS
(INAUDIBLE). >> THE MOBILE YOU APP RIGHT NOW WE GET ON A GOOD YEAR ABOUT 120 REPORT OF CONCERNS.
THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE SENDING US REPORT OF CONCERN A YEAR FOR THERE'S A POTHOLE OR THERE'S A DECEASED RACCOON THAT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM HOMEBERG ROAD, SOME OF THEM ARE DUPLICATES,
[00:50:05]
FROM THE SAME PEOPLE. THE MONEY WE PAY FOR THAT MOBILE APP IT'S ALMOST EXTORTION FOR THOSE KINDS OF NUMBERS SO I WOULD LIKE TO GET OUT OF THAT BUSINESS IRRESPECTIVE OF IT BEING BEYOND ITS USEFUL SHELF LIFE.AND THIS SEEMS LIKE A LOGICAL NEXT STEP.
>> WHAT IS THE COST FOR CHATBOT? >> WE ARE LOOKING AT 7500 IN THE DOOR AND ABOUT THE SAME PER YEAR.
>> AND I'M CURIOUS FOR THE APP WHAT IS IT WE ARE PAYING FOR AN
>> NOW THAT YOU SAID IT I'M GOING TO HAVE TO IT'S -- IS IT FOR SOMEONE TO SERVICE IT OR MAIRCHT OR WHATEVER?
>> THAT' FOR US BECAUSE IT IS NOT OUR BUILD.
IT IS SOMEONE ELSE'S SO IT'S TO HANG IT ON THEIR SHELF
BASICALLY. >> I'M READY TO CANCEL THE APP,
TODAY IS FINE BY ME. >> IN REGARDS TO THE CHATBOT, TODD, WHAT HAPPENS NOW? GO ON THE WEBSITE AND THEY HAVE TO TRY TO NAVIGATE THE WEBSITE WITHOUT HAVING A CHATBOT TELL THEM HERE'S THE LINK OR WHATEVER?
>> YES. >> THEY HAVE TO DO THAT ONE LITTLE EXTRA STEP OF DOING SOME RESEARCH OPEN THE SITE ITSELF AND IF THEY DO REPORT SOMETHING I MEAN IT MUST GO TO EITHER A DEPARTMENT PERSON OR SOMETHING ALONG --
>> YES, THE BARK INDEPENDENT OF THAT WHEN THEY SUBMIT THE REQUEST VIA THE CHASHT, HE IT GOES TO WHOEVER WE WANT IT TO.
MUM PEOPLE WOULD GET IT, IN CASE SOMEBODY IS OUT ON VACATION, OUT OF POCKET, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. IT WOULD BE AN EFFICIENT WAY OF PUSHING THAT TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE.
AS FAR AS WHAT THE CHATBOT DOES TO MAKE IT A BETTER EXPERIENCE ON THE WEBSITE WHEN YOU'RE JUST LOOKING FOR SOMETHING AND NOT REPORTING SOMETHING EVERY WEBSITE HAS A SEARCH FEATURE.
NONE OF THEM ARE REALLY AS EFFECTIVE AS A BNCHES E-BOT, BASICALLY POSING THROUGH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE POSING AS A PERSONAL. WHAT IT DOES IS SCOUR THE WEBSITE, TO PROVIDE AN EFFECTIVE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION THAT WAS
RAISED. >> MOST WEBSITES ARE GOING TO
THIS FEATURE. >> SO A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE. OBVIOUSLY THE COST IS RELATIVELY INEXPENSIVE. NUMBER 1, HOW MANY PEOPLE, WHAT WOULD BE THE GOAL THAT YOU WOULD WANT TO SEE OF THE INTERACTION WITH RESIDENTS? IF YOU ARE TALKING 120 VERSUS THE APP AND OBVIOUSLY IT IS NOT EFFECTIVE IN THE SENSE OF WHAT THE PRICE IS, BUT WHAT WOULD BE THE EXPECTATION OF HOW MANY RESIDENTS WOULD INTERACT WITH THE CHATBOT?
>> WELL I THINK MORE SO -- >> NO I'M JUST --
>> I THINK IT'S MORE SO THAT THE RESIDENTS DON'T CALL TO INTERRUPT PEOPLE FROM THEIR DAILY.
THE EASIER THE WEBSITE IS TO NAVIGATE TO GET APPLICATIONS OR WHAT HAVE YOU, THE LESS APT SOMEONE IS TO CALLING AND MAKING
SOMEBODY GET OFF THEIR DAILY -- >> ALSO IT IS APPLES TO ORANGES, THE 120 IS PEOPLE JUST REPORTING THIS, THIS IS FOR THE ENTIRE USE
OF THE WEBSITE. >> SOMEBODY GOING ON TO THE WEBSITE FOR INFORMATION, WHAT IS THE EXPECTATION OF THE GOAL?
ARE WE EXPECTED -- >> MAYBE THE BETTER QUESTION IS HOW MANY VISITORS LIKE A MONTH OR YEARLY BASIS DOES OUR WEBSITE
EVEN HAVE? >> WAY MORE THAN THE FRONT PAGE OF OUR WEBSITE IS THE HOTTEST THING THAT WE HAVE.
IT'S HOTTER THAN OUR FACEBOOK, OUR X, OUR NEXT DOOR, OUR INSTAGRAM. IT'S WAY HOTTER THAN THE MOBILE APP. SO TO YOUR QUESTION JUST FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE REPORTING A CONCERN, WOULD I EXPECT THAT WE'RE GOING TO INCREASE THOSE NUMBERS DRAMATICALLY JUST BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE PUMPING OUT YOU HAVE A ONE STOP SHOP, THE CITY'S WEBSITE IS A PLACE TO FIND A CONCERN, THAT ALONE IS GOING TO GET PEOPLE TRAINED I THINK IN MUCH GREATER NUMBERS TO GO TO THAT PLACE TO REPORT A CONCERN.
ADJUNCT TO THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ALSO GS GOING TO HAVE AN IMPROVED EXPERIENCE ON THE WEBSITE BY FINDING INFORMATION FASTER GETTING QUESTIONS ANSWERED AT ANY TIME OF DAY AND THAT'S WHETHER WE GET INTO THE TIME SAVER. WHERE IT'S NOT A PHONE CALL TO US TAKING US OFF ANOTHER TASK. WE'RE HAPPY TO FACE THOSE CALLS OF COURSE BUT IT IS ALSO ANSWERING THE QUESTION WHEN IT COMES INTO THE MIND OF A RESIDENT.
IF SOMEBODY'S GOT A QUESTION RIGHT NOW THEY HAVE GOT TO WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW MORNING TO GET THAT ANSWERED.
THEY COULD GO TO THE WEBSITE IN FAIRLY EASY SURFACING WITHOUT NAVIGATING THROUGH EVERYTHING, GET AN ANSWER, YOU NEVER GET A DEAD END WITH THE BOT BECAUSE IF THE CHATBOT IS NOT ABLE TO GIVE YOU THE INFORMATION, WE WILL REACH OUT TO YOU TO GIVE YOU THE
ANSWER TO THE QUESTION. >> OR YOU COULD TAG MAYOR WALKER
[00:55:03]
ON FACEBOOK. >> WHICH IS WHAT EVERYONE DOES.
>> WHATEVER IT MAY BE DOES THAT SATISFY YOU OR DOES THAT PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION YES OR NO OR DID YOU WANT TO ASK THE QUESTION DIFFERENTLY OR YOU KNOW WHAT, I CARCHLT HELP YOU.
ANY FIRST I DON'T WANT TO SAY CONCERN BUT WE HAVE A LOT OF INFORMATIONAL PAGES THAT ARE IRRELEVANT.
THAT IF I GO IN THE SEARCH BOX AND ASK FOR SOMETHING I GET SOMETHING FROM EITHER 404 NOT FOUND OR SOME INFORMATION THAT'S IRRELEVANT. DOES THE CHATBOT PICK THAT UP?
>> THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION. THIS WOULD REQUIRE THAT WE SCOUR THE WEBSITE BEFORE WE GO LIVE TO ENSURE THAT EVERYTHING WE HAVE ON THE WEBSITE IS ACCURATE AND CURRENT.
WHICH IS A GOOD CLEANUP TASK ANYWAY BUT IT WOULD REQUIRE THAT WE DO THAT. BECAUSE IF WE HAVE SOMETHING FROM 2014 ON THERE IT IS GOING TO SCOUR THAT TO PROVIDE THE
ANSWER. >> SO THAT'S THE FIRST QUESTION.
SO THERE'S A HEAVY LIFT IN% CLEANING UP THE WEBSITE PRIOR TO
GOING LIVE WITH THIS. >> I WOULDN'T SAY A HEAVY LIFT
BUT A LIFT. >> BUT IT'S POSITIVE.
>> RIGHT, IT CLEANS IT UP. THE OTHER QUESTION THAT I HAVE WITH THE INFORMATION THAT WAS ACTUALLY, I SEE A POTHOLE OR WHATEVER, THE CURRENT APP THAT WE HAVE PROVIDES AT LEAST SOME SORT OF RESPONSE WHERE A RESIDENT CAN THEN FOLLOW UP.
SO THERE'S A, OBVIOUSLY GOING BACK AND FORTH AND MOST THINGS, YOU KNOW, IT GIVES YOU A RESPONSE TO SAY YEAH, HERE IS YOUR REFERENCE NUMBER OR WHATEVER, PLEASE CHECK OR WHATEVER MAY BE. HOW DOES THEN A RESIDENT FOLLOW UP TO ENSURE THAT A, SOMEBODY GOT THE INFORMATION, B, IT'S BEING FOLLOWED UP AND C OBVIOUSLY IT COMES TO CONCLUSION, WHATEVER THAT CONCLUSION OR RESOLUTION MAY BE?
>> THE ULTIMATE CONCLUSION WOULD BE THEY DRIVE PASS THAT POTHOLE AND SEE IT WOULD BE FILLED. WE WOULD BE WORKING ON THE BACK END TO MAKE SURE ALL THE TASKS ARE TAKEN CARE OF AN THE RESIDENT IS FOLLOWED UP WITH. THERE IS ANOTHER BACK END THAT DIFFERS FROM THE ONE WE CURRENTLY HAVE AND YOU SAW SOMETHING ON CITRUS HEIGHTS THAT ARE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY AS WELL. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS THAT WE COULD USE SO I DON'T HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE ANSWER FOR YOU EXCEPT THAT WE WOULD WANT TO ENSURE THAT WHAT WE'RE MOVING THROUGH IS AN IMPROVEMENT AND MORE RESPONSIVE
AND NOT A STEP BACKWARD. >> LIKE I SAID WITH THAT PROCESS JUST SOMETHING THAT RESPONDS BACK TO THE RESIDENT A WE RECEIVED YOUR INFORMATION, B HERE IS A REFERENCE NUMBER AND C SOME WAY FOR THEM TO FOLLOW UP. IF THE NOT HOLE IS REPAIRED, IF THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE THAT IS TIME SENSITIVE, THEY WANT TO CHECK TO MAKE SURE, SOMEBODY CALLING UP, BY THE WEIGH, WHAT'S THE WEATHER ON THE FIELDS, ARE THE FIELDS CLOSED? CALL THE HOT LINE, IS THE CHATBOT GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THAT OR IS IT NOW I GOT TO CALL ANOTHER NUMBER OR DO ANOTHER ACTIVITY TO FIND OUT AN ANSWER? THAT'S KIND OF COORDINATION, IS THAT IF WE'RE DIRECTING PEOPLE TO ONE AREA TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION, WE ALSO HAVE TO TAKE A LOOK AT, WHAT INFORMATION PEOPLE ARE ASKING FOR, THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE SOMETHING IN PLACE. OTHERWISE PEOPLE ARE GOING IN 12
DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. >> UNDERSTOOD AND IT WOULD VOX.
WE WOULD TWEAK IT AND CHANGE IT. IF YOU WENT ON OUR WEBSITE IF WE HAD THE BOT YOU COULD CHECK ON, JOIN US ON PINE TRAILS AND CHECK IN TO THE PARK. IT WOULD EVOLVE AS WE GO, WE WOULD MONITOR IT AND MAKE SURE WE ARE AS RESPONSIVE AND RESPONSIBLE TO OUR RESIDENTS AS POSSIBLE.
>> ONE QUESTION TODD, RELATIVE TO THAT THEN, ON THE BACK END YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE SOMEBODY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED TO CONTINUALLY UPDATE THE DATA FOR THAT PROCESS, I WOULD IMAGINE.
IT'S NOT A STATIC CHATBOT, IT IS LOOKING AT THE WEBSITE AND RELATING WHAT LINK TO FOLLOW. I THINK WHAT BHOB IS SUGGESTING IS SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE IN DEPTH, WHERE YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING INTERRELATING TO WHOEVER IS MAKING THE PHONE
CALL. >> TWO THINGS, ONE IS THE BOT ON THE FRONT END AND ONE IS THE TASK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ON THE BACK END BUT THEY'RE TWO SEPARATE THINGS AND BOTH WOULD
HAVE AN INFRASTRUCTURE. >> BUT THE CHATBOT IS NOT GOING TO FOLLOW BACK UP WITH YOU NEXT WEEK AND TELL THAT YOU THE
POTHOLE IS -- >> SO THAT WOULD BE WHOEVER IS
DESIGNATED TO HANDLE THAT. >> THE MAYOR WOULD DO THAT
CLEARLY. >> EXACTLY BUT ALSO WHAT I'M SUGGESTING IS THAT IN RESPONSE TO WHAT TODD SAID ABOUT THE DECEMBER 8TH EVENT, SOMEBODY ON THE BACK END HAS TO TELL THE CHATBOT THAT THAT IS ACTUALLY COMING UP, THAT THERE'S THESE THINGS GOING ON. AROUND, YOU KNOW --
[01:00:01]
>> WE HAVE AN EVENTS PAGE. WHAT I THINK TODD'S SUGGESTING IS WE ARE ALREADY UPDATING OUR WEBSITE ON AN ONGOING BASIS WHATEVER THE UPDATED INFORMATION IS.
PULLING FROM THE SUBPAGES THAT HAVE THAT INFORMATION.
AND YOU JUST HAVE TO GIVE IT THE PROCESS OF WHEN SOMEONE FIRST ENGAGES IT, IF YOU WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THE MOST RECENT
UPCOMING EVENTS -- >> OR TODD WOULD JUST PLUG THAT IN. HERE IS OUR INITIAL RESPONSE SINCE THIS IS COMING UP I'M JUST GOING TO PLUG THIS IN FOR THIS MONTH EVERY TIME SOMEBODY USES IT FOR THIS MONTH I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE THAT SENTENCE IN. SO I DON'T THINK THE CHATBOT IS GOING TO DO THAT PER SE, THAT IS GOING TO BE TODD.
>> IT WOULD BE A CHANGE WE HAVE TO GO IN AND PHYSICALLY CHANGE,
LIKE CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE. >> INFORMATION WHICH MAY INVOLVE HAVING A PERSON CONSISTENTLY DO THAT.
>> BUT WE ALREADY MAINTAIN IT. IF YOU GO TO THE PARKLAND WEBSITE RIGHT NOW TO THE EVENTS PAGE SOMEONE'S ACTIVELY UPDATING
BUT IF YOU GO INTO THE SEARCH ENGINE AND ASK, DO YOU HAVE INFORMATION ON SNOW, IT HAS INFORMATION FROM 2021, 2022 --
>> THAT IS LITERALLY JUST GLEANING THROUGH THE INDEX OF
THE ENTIRE SITE. >> IT'S STILL GOING TO PULL UP THE OLD STUFF. YOU CAN'T GET RID OF ALL THE OLD
STUFF. >> I'M NOT TECHNICALLY --
>> ALL THIS IS, IS A GLORIFIED SEARCH ENGINE FOR THE WEBSITE.
>> BUT IT HAS MORE FUNCTIONALITY.
BECAUSE WE GET TO CONTROL HOW WHEN SOMEONE SEARCHES FOR SOMETHING HOW WE WANT IT TO RESPOND.
IF WE DON'T NEED IT TO SEARCH FOR ANYTHING PRIOR TO THE YEAR WE'RE IN IF THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT AN EVENT.
>> BUT SOMETIMES GO BACK PREVIOUS YEARS.
>> WE'RE NOT GOOGLE. PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO COME TO OUR WEBSITE AND ASK FOR -- I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA.
THE ONLY THING I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND TODD IS THAT WE TALK ABOUT PHASING OUT THE APP BUT THEY NEED TO GO USE IT OPEN UP THE RIG WEB PAGE ON THEIR PHONE AND USE IT OR ARE WE GOING TO CREATE SOME SORT OF OTHER APP THAT IS GOING TO ACCESS IT?
>> USING THE CHATBOT TO REPORT YOUR CONCERN.
IT WOULD BE AN INTERACTIVE THING WOULD YOU GO AND TYPE IN POTHOLE
AND GET THE FORECAST -- >> YOU WOULD BE ACCESSING THE CHATBOT THROUGH SAFARI ON YOUR PHONE.
>> YES. >> DOES THIS CHATBOT COMPANY SOMETIMES THEY HAVE THEIR OWN INDEPENDENT APP, SOMETHING WE COULD USE AND PEOPLE LOG IN THROUGH PARKLAND VERSION OF THE
>> SOMETIMES THESE TYPE OF SOFTWARE COMPANIES IT'S NOT LIKE HEY YOU GO TO MY WEBSITE YOU ACCESS THE CHATBOT, IT IS LIKE OH YOU ALSO HAVE AN APP WHEN YOU OPEN IT YOU ARE ESSENTIALLY TALKING TO THE BOT FOR YOUR WEBSITE.
>> YES, I'VE NOT EXPLORED THAT TOO MUCH.
>> NOW WE KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE APP, WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO REPLACE OUR APP WITH STILL THE FUNCTIONALITY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> ANYTHING ELSE? I GUESS THAT'S IT. MOTION TO ADJOURN? ALL RIGHT. SEE YOU.
GOOD DAY EVERYONE.
