>> COMMISSIONER GAINES. >> MADAM CHAIR AND BOARD, IT IS MY PLEASURE TO INVITE BACK THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB OF ST. LUCIA COUNTY. AS YOU ARE AWARE, WE ARE TRYING TO BUILD A SITE IN THE DISTRICT ONE BEHIND THE 25TH STREET, RIGHT BEHIND GARDEN CITY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

I THINK THIS WOULD BE A GREAT INVESTMENT AND A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE THOSE KIDS IN THAT PART OF FORT PIERCE SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN CALL THEIR OWN AND SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN ENJOY AND BE SAFE. I ASKED THE BOARD AND THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB BUT TO COME TODAY TO PRESENTED TO US AND WE GO FROM THERE. I CAN SEE THAT WE HAVE SOME PEOPLE FROM THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB IN THE AUDIENCE.

I DON'T KNOW -- AREAS. >> I THINK MR. -- IS GOING TO BE

THE SPOKESMAN. >> I WONDERED HOW LONG HE WAS

GOING TO LET ME SPEAK APPEAR. >> I KNOW YOU DIDN'T TELL ME THAT BUT I WAS TALKING UNTIL YOU GET UP.

I WILL MOVE IT FORWARD. >> MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL, CITY MANAGER. I WOULD LET YOU KEEP TALKING BECAUSE I WANTED TO HEAR THE LOVE THAT YOU HAVE FOR THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S AND THE YOUTH IN OUR COMMUNITY.

BEFORE I TALK ABOUT THIS PROJECT.

FIRST, THIS IS A LEARNINGEA EXPERIENCE FOR OUR TEENS.

I LOOK AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY THAT WE CAN, GOOD, BAD, AND INDIFFERENT TO MAKE SURE TEENS SEE THAT PROCESS.

THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TEENS IN THE AUDIENCE.

BUT OUR TEENS IN FORT PIERCE PARTICULARLY ARE AN AMAZING GROUP OF PEOPLE. YOUNG PEOPLE.

IF I HAD AS A YOUNG PERSON WHAT THEY ARE TODAY I WOULD BE IN A BETTER POSITION. I CAN TELL YOU THAT I GREW UP IN BROOKLYN AND IT WAS ROUGH. I HAD TO JOIN THE ARMY NOT BECAUSE I WANTED TO, BECAUSE I HAD TO.

I WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF GREAT COMPANIES DOING SOME GREAT THINGS AND NOW I WORK AS A CEO FOR THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB WHICH IS THE BEST JOB I HAVE EVER HAD.

THE REASON IT IS THE BEST JOB I HAVE EVER HAD IS BECAUSE I GET TO TOUCH EVERY LIFE THAT WALKS PAST ME AT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S. AND BECAUSE I AM HIS CEO AND A MAN I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO GET EMOTIONAL APPEAR, I WON'T IS THAT IMPORTANT TO ME THAT OUR YOUNG PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. WE ALL WERE TEENS THAT ONE TIME AND WERE PART OF SOME THINGS. BUT I AM UP HERE TODAY TO TALK ABOUT THIS PROJECT WE ARE WORKING ON, THIS 25TH LIGHTHOUSE TEAM DEVELOPMENT PROJECT BECAUSE IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO AND IT IS THE RIGHT TIME TO PUT A BUILDING IN A PLACE WHERE THEY KIDS, THE TEENAGERS CAN CALL THEIR OWN.

I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU A QUICK SYNOPSIS OF THAT.

[00:05:02]

THEY ARE WITH A LOT OF THE KIDS WHEN THEY WERE LITTLE KIDS.

AND THEY GET THEM TO ABOUT THE EIGHTH GRADE AND THEN DON'T HAVE A PLACE FOR THEM TO GO. SO WE GO WHEREVER THEY NEED TO GO WHATEVER THAT LOOKS LIKE. FOR MOST OF THEIR LIFE THEY HAD A STRONG PLACE THAT WAS SAVE, A PLACE THAT THEY CAN LEARN AND GROW. AND THEN WHEN THEY GET TO ABOUT THE NINTH GRADE THEY DIE OFF BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE A PLACE THAT IS FOR OLDER KIDS, FOR TEENAGERS.

SINCE I'VE BEEN WITH THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S I MADE IT MY MISSION TO MAKE SURE OUR TEENS ARE TAKEN CARE OF.

WE HAVE DIFFERENT PARTNERSHIPS NOW THAT WE DID NOT HAVE SIX YEARS AGO. FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE WESTSIDE CLUB. WESTSIDE CLUB IS DOING AMAZING.

WE'VE ONLY BEEN THERE A YEAR AND A HALF.

IN THAT YEAR AND A HALF WE HAVE 110 TEENAGERS.

110 TEENAGERS ATTENDING THE CLUB ALL DAY.

THAT IS A HUGE SUITE FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO HAVE 110 TEENAGERS GO ANYWHERE. TWO OR THREE FOR THAT MATTER.

WE HAVE 250 LITTLE ONES THAT GO THERE, TOO.

PEOPLE SAID ARE WE GOING TO BE ABLE TO FILL IT UP OF COURSE.

22% OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY IS UNDER THE AGE OF 18. THAT MEANS THEY NEED A PLACE TO GO. WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PLACES FOR THESE KIDS TO GO. I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU OUR MISSION AND VISION. MOST OF YOU IF YOU HAVE SEEN ANY OF THE PEOPLE ON MY TEAM YOU WOULD KNOW THAT THESE ARE OUR VALUES. OUR MISSION IS TO ENABLE ALL YOUNG PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT NEED IS THE MOST TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL AS PRODUCTIVE, CARING AND RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS. OUR VISION IS TO PROVIDE A WORLD-CLASS CLUB EXPERIENCE THAT ENSURES SUCCESS IS WITHIN REACH OF EVERY YOUNG PERSON WHO ENTERS OUR DOORS WITH ALL MEMBERS ON TRACK FOR GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL WITH A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE, DEMONSTRATING GOOD CHARACTERS CITIZENSHIP IN LIVING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. THAT IS WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY.

WE ARE NOT DOING IT THE WAY WE DID 20 YEARS AGO BECAUSE IF WE DID IT WAY WE DID 20 YEARS AGO WE WOULDN'T HAVE ANY KIDS IN THE CLUB. WE ARE ENSURING THAT THE ITEMS AND THINGS WE ARE PROVIDING OUR KIDS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL ENTICE THEM TO COME TO OUR CLUBS.

WHEN I LOOK AT LINKIN PARK PROJECT OFF OF 25TH STREET, 6 ACRES THAT'S GOING TO ATTRACT KIDS TO WANT TO GO THERE.

IT'S GOING TO ATTRACT THEM TO GO THERE AND WE ARE GOING TO TEACH THEM LIFE SKILLS. OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS WE HAVE HAD SOME AMAZING STAFF AND IN THE RECENT WE HAD DOCTOR PAMELA WHO HAS EXPERIENCE IN WORKFORCE READINESS.

WE UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY KID IS NOT GOING TO GO TO COLLEGE AND WERE NOT EVEN GOING TO PUSH THAT.

WE WANT EVERYBODY TO GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL, THAT'S A MUST.

YOU GRADUATE YOU PICK IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO TO COLLEGE WE WILL HELP YOU OR IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN THE WORKFORCE.

YOU MAKE THE CHOICE. WE ARE HERE TO HELP HIM BESIDE YOU. AND WE HAVE PROVEN OVER THE YEARS THIS TIME LAST YEAR I BELIEVE IT WAS CARES MONEY.

AND WHAT IT DID WAS TO NOT TEACH KIDS HOW TO DO -- A TAUGHT THEM BASIC SKILLS. UNLESS YOU FIRST TO HAVE THE SKILL TO BE ABLE TO GO TO WORK ON TIME.

THAT'S WHAT WE TEACH AT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S AND ALL THE OTHER PIECES THAT GO WITH THAT WE BRING PARTNERS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY TO HELP US WITH THOSE THINGS.

I GUESS I HAVE TO LOOK AT THE CLICKER.

I'M GOING TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM DOING

WITH IT. >> THIS 12000 SQUARE-FOOT BUILDING IS MORE THAN JUST WORKFORCE READINESS WHICH IS GOING TO BE HUGE. IT WILL ALSO PROVIDE A PLACE WHERE THE COMMUNITY, THE CITIZENS THAT LIVE COULD USE IT.

SO FOR THE MOST PART BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB DURING THE YEARS GOING TO BE OPEN. 3:00 UNTIL 8:00.

ANY OTHER TIME ON THAT THIS IS OPEN FOR THE COMMUNITY.

YOU COULD USE IT. WE WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO PARTNER AND SAY WE ARE GOING TO USE THIS FOR COLD-WEATHER SHELTER AND

[00:10:06]

WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO SERVE KIDS PASS THAT.

THE CAPACITY IS GOING TO ALLOW US TO SERVE 800 KIDS.

WHEN WE TALK ABOUT SERVING 800 KIDS, WERE TALKING WITH QUALITY PROGRAMS. WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE OUR PROGRAM THE 80S OR 90S OR EARLY 2000'S.

WE WANT TO GIVE KIDS OPPORTUNITIES LIKE VR TRAINING.

WE WANT TO GIVE OTHER TRAININGS THAT IF THEY WANT TO BE A TECH OR WHATEVER THEY WANT TO DO WERE GOING TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT. BUT WE CAN'T DO THAT WITHOUT HAVING A BUILDING. I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT A PRIORITY TO ME, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO TEENS.

LET'S GET THEM IN THE BUILDING FIRST.

IF WERE ABLE TO BRING THEM IN A BUILDING WE JUST ONE BECAUSE WE GOT THE MENACING SPACE. I AM GOING TO ASK OUR FORMER REPRESENTATIVE LEADER TO STAND UP BECAUSE HE'S THE ONE WHO HAD THIS VISION IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO IN THE LINKIN PARK AREA.

BUT I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT SO FAR WE HAVE RAISED OVER $2 MILLION FOR THIS PROJECT. TODAY IT IS THE FIRST TIME THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB HAS IT RAISE MONEY FOR A CAPITAL PROJECT AND THE FIRST PLACE THAT WE DECIDE THAT WE ARE GOING TO WORK WITH OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND WE HAVE SEVERAL WAS IN THE LINKIN PARK AREA. WE PUT $2 MILLION RIGHT NOW AND A FEW OTHER PEOPLE ARE FOCUSED ON THIS BUT HERE'S WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR. WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE CITY AND OTHER ENTITIES TO COME ALONGSIDE US AND PARTNER WITH US.

THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THAT WE CAN MAKE IT FROM A PRIVATE PUBLIC STANDPOINT. WE CAN'T BUILD BY OURSELVES.

THE CITY CAN'T TO IT BY THEMSELVES.

BUT TOGETHER WE CAN HAVE A PROJECT A BEAUTIFUL BUILDING THAT WOULD NOT ONLY SERVE THE PURPOSE OF SERVING THE TEENAGERS IN OUR COMMUNITIES BUT I SEE BEAUTIFUL WEDDINGS HAPPENING HERE. BUT ALSO SEE THE CITY AND OTHER ENTITIES GETTING USE OUT OF THIS BUILDING AS WELL.

IF YOU DON'T MIND, I DON'T HAVE AS MUCH HISTORY OF FORT PIERCE AS THE REPRESENTATIVE SO I'M GOING TO BRING HIM UP SO HE CAN SHARE A FEW MINUTES. [APPLAUSE]

>> THANK YOU. THAT IS A TOUGH ACT TO FOLLOW.

TO GIVE YOU SOME HISTORY ON HOW WE CAME TOGETHER.

WHEN I WAS IN THE LEGISLATURE, EVERY YEARS THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S WERE A PRIORITY FOR ME. AND THE WILL AND I GOT TO KNOW EACH OTHER VERY WELL. THERE WAS A GUY WHO HAD THIS PROPERTY FOR SALE. HE CALLED MY OFFICE ONE DAY AND SAID HE WANTED TO MEET WITH ME. HE CAME BY AND SAID I KNOW YOU ARE INTO HELP REVITALIZE THIS COMMUNITY.

I WANT YOU TO TAKE THE 6.6 ACRES AND DO SOMETHING FOR KIDS AND HELP THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND I SAID OKAY.

BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. A FEW YEARS WENT BY AND I GOT THIS IDEA THAT MAYBE WE SHOULD TEAM UP WITH THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB. THAT CAME FROM GREG NELSON WITH THE COUNTY BECAUSE WHEN WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT IT.

HE SENT WITH THAT GUY'S NAME ANTHONY INTO MY OFFICE TO GET INVOLVED I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE FIRST TEE WAS.

IT'S A GOLF PROGRAM THAT GOES INTO URBAN COMMUNITIES THAT TAKES KIDS TO THE GOLF COURSE. HE TOLD ME THEY DID SOMETHING AT THE STEWART RECREATION CENTER. AND I SAID WOW IT'S NEAT BUT IT'S A PUPPET COURSE AT THEIR COMMUNITY CENTER.

I CAME BACK AND I TALKED TO GREG NELSON WHO HAS BEEN A BIG SUPPORTER OF THE FOUNDATION AND HE SAID YOU COULD HAVE A BETTER ORGANIZATION YOU CANNOT HAVE A BETTER ORGANIZATION THEN THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB TO PARTNERSHIP.

ONE DAY YOU ARE GOING TO DIE IN YOUR VISION MAY DIE WITH THAT BUT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR 150 YEARS.

WE GOT TOGETHER AND SAID THIS IS THE PERFECT MARRIAGE.

WE TEAMED UP AND CANNOT HAVE A BETTER PARTNER.

THEN I WENT BACK TO ED AND SAID WE'D LIKE TO REALLY BUY THE PROPERTY BUT CAN YOU REDUCE THE PRICE.

I TALKED TO MY PARTNER IN NEW YORK AND HE SAID IF I SAID TO 40 HE WOULD SAY 300. SO ADD, IF YOU'RE LISTENING OUT THERE. SO MY SUPPORT AT PRIZE HE SAID 240 AND THEN I SAID WELL WE HAVE TO RAISE THE MONEY FROM THE FOUNDATION. COULD YOU GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY

[00:15:04]

THESE ARE SOME OF OUR BOARD MEMBERS.

[APPLAUSE] AND THEY ALONG WITH OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY STEPPED UP. AND THEY GOT TO HELP US WITH THE PURCHASE OF THE LAMB. THAT WE HAD BUSINESS OWNERS SENT TO MY SURPRISE IN 90 DAYS WE RAISE $240,000 AND WE HAD A GOLF TOURNAMENT THAT THEY PUT ON EVERY YEAR AND THEY KICKED HIM 40000 AND WE WERE THERE. NOW WE START THE CAMPAIGN TO RAISE THE MONEY FOR THE FACILITY.

WE HAD -- AND SON STEP UP. THEY NOT ONLY DONATED $5000.

THEY ARE DOING ALL THE SURVEY AND EXCAVATION WORK AT NO COST.

-- AND HIS SON, DARREN. DARREN AND BEN HAVE BEEN SUPERB IN TERMS OF THIS. WE HAD STEVE THEY HAVE DONE ALL OF THIS. TODD DID ALL OF THE RENDERINGS.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE THAT VIDEO BUT HE PUT TOGETHER AN ANIMATED VIDEO OF WHAT THIS WOULD LOOK LIKE ONCE COMPLETED.

WITH ALL THAT BEING SAID. THE OVERALL GOAL THAT I AM VISION AND HOPE WE CAN HAVE AT FORT PIERCE IS THAT WE CAN BECOME A NATIONAL MODEL. NO MATTER WHAT CITY YOU GO TO IN AMERICA IF THERE IS THE STREET NAMED AFTER MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. IT MEANS IT RUNS THROUGH THE NUTS AND NICE AREA OF THE CITY.

THIS COULD BECOME A MODEL BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT SEE ANY CLUB IN AMERICA LOOK LIKE THIS AND HAVE AT THIS HAVE IN TERMS OF THE GOLF FACILITY THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE, THE PUTT PUTT, THE SOCCER FIELD, THE CAFÉ, AND KIDS ARE GOING TO RUN THIS.

THAT IS SOMETHING I WANT TO MAKE SURE THE COMMUNITY KNOWS.

THE MAYOR AND I WENT TO A RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY AND IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE IN THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE TELL OUR STORY BETTER BECAUSE WE HAVE SO MUCH NEGATIVITY OUT THERE THAT NOTHING GOOD IS HAPPENING IN FORT PIERCE AND PARTICULARLY THE NORTHWEST LINKIN PARK COMMUNITY. IN THAT DAY WHEN I SPOKE I TALKED ABOUT THIS PROJECT. -- THE LIGHTHOUSE TEAM DEVELOPMENT CENTER. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS MUCH ACTIVITY TAKE PLACE IN THE LINKIN PARK COMMUNITY IN MY TIME AS A CHILD AND ADULT AS IT IS RIGHT NOW.

AND I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT HELP IT AND EVEN A BIGGER THINK IF IF YOU GIVE US THAT MONEY TODAY.

[APPLAUSE] >> I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO TAKE MORE TIME THAN HE DID. HE DID REALLY GOOD.

YOU SHOULD GIVE HIM ANOTHER HAM FOR SURE.

I WANT TO TOUCH BACK AND I DON'T WANT TO TAKE UP THE WHOLE MEETING. I HAVE FIVE HOURS WORTH OF STUFF HERE. I WILL CONDUCT CONDENSE IT.

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW METHODICAL AS AN ORGANIZATION WHEN IT COMES TO OUR BOARD MEMBERS WE HAVE A VARIETY OF BOARD MEMBERS WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE RIGHT PEOPLE WITH THE RIGHT TALENT THAT SERVE THE COUNTY.

AND IN FORT PIERCE 80 OF OUR 180 EMPLOYEES WORKING FORT PIERCE.

EIGHTY OF THOSE EMPLOYEES. I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE BELIEVE THAT OUR EDUCATION IS THE PRIORITY OF WHAT WE WANT TO SEE HAPPEN WITH OUR KIDS. WE HAVE 17 CERTIFIED TEACHERS IN OUR CLUB SON MOST ARE IN FORT PIERCE.

IT DID NOT START THAT WAY BUT WITH THE HELP OF THE BOARD AND THE STAFF WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO REMARKABLE THINGS OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. WE HAVE ALREADY RAISED OVER 2 MILLION. WE ARE WHAT WE CALL A SILENT PHASE IT'S NOT SO SILENT NOW BECAUSE I AM HERE.

WE ARE IN THE SILENT PHASE AND WE ARE ASKING THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE TO COME ALONGSIDE US. I HAVE A BIG NUMBER IN MY HEAD AND ON PAPER THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE COME ALONGSIDE A'S COME ALONGSIDE US IN A 500,000-DOLLAR WAY WE THINK IT'S THAT IMPORTANT.

WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT NOT JUST DIPPING THEIR TOE IN THE WATER BUT WE DIP THE TOW IN THE WATER AT THE SAME TIME.

THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO BE HERE WAY PAST ME.

I'M GOING TO BE GONE AND THE KIDS ARE GOING TO STILL BE HERE IN THAT BUILDING IS GOING TO BE HERE AND REPRESENT A LOT OF

[00:20:05]

WILL OPEN IT UP. >> ANY QUESTIONS?

>> I WILL START. YOU HAVE 2 MILLION COMMITTED FOR THIS PROJECT ALONE NOT FOR ANYTHING ELSE?

>> JUST FOR THIS PROJECT. >> AND YOU HAVE DONE IN THE

BANK? >> WE HAVE 1 MILLION IN THE BANK. WE HAVE TWO DONORS THAT ARE

PLEDGED. >> YES.

>> MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS. WE ARE NOT GOING TO NAME NAMES.

>> BUT WE HAVE HAD TWO VERY LARGE DONORS COME OUTSIDE OF THIS COMMUNITY AND OTHER COMMUNITY STEP UP WITH SIX-FIGURE DONATIONS. THAT IS HOW MUCH THEY BELIEVE IN FORT PIERCE AND THE KIDS AND THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT KNOWN BECAUSE WE HAD PEOPLE SUPPORTING THIS PROJECT THAT DON'T EVEN LIVE IN THE COUNTY.

>> THANK YOU. BUT YOU HAVE A NUMBER OF FACILITIES BUT THIS IS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT WILL BE

FOR TEENAGERS. >> THAT'S CORRECT.

IT'S GOING TO BE STRICTLY TEAM. WHAT HAPPENS AND I'M GLAD U.S.

THAT. IF YOU LOOK AT THE INFINITY UNIT WE HAVE A SPACE THAT HAS ABOUT 80 OR 90 YOUNG KIDS.

THAT'S BETWEEN THE AGES OF SIX AND NINE.

AND THEN THE TEN, 11 AND 12 -YEAR-OLDS THAT HAVE A SMALL SPACE AT THE INFINITY UNIT. WE HAVE OUR GARDEN TERRACE UNIT THAT HAS ABOUT A HUNDRED KIDS. THAT IS A FIVE OR 6000 SQUARE-FOOT BUILDING. YOU CAN IMAGINE 100 KIDS IN A SPACE LIKE THAT. WHEN THEY BECOME TEENAGERS THE ONLY PLACE WE HAVE IS THE GYM. WE HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB AND ARE VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THE COUNCIL, AT THE GYM AND WE HAVE DONE WHAT WE CAN DO. WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO PUT A MUSIC ROOM OFF TO HIS SIDE. WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO DO SOME OTHER THINGS TO MODIFY THE GYM. BUT WE HAVE 70 OR 80 KIDS THAT ARE ATTENDING THAT CLUB AS WELL. BUT IT IS A GYM.

IT IS NOT BUILT FOR PROGRAMS THAT WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO GIVE TO KIDS. WHEN I THINK ABOUT A PROGRAM I THINK ABOUT A PROGRAM LIKE AN AMAZON THAT IS BUILDING ALL THESE BIG WAREHOUSES AROUND HERE.

WE WANT COMPANIES TO COME IN AND TEACH OUR KIDS HOW TO DO IT AT AN EARLY AGE BETWEEN THE AGES OF 13 TO MAKE 15 YEARS OLD.

BY THE TIME THEY BECOME 17 AND 18, UNFORTUNATELY THE MINES ARE MADE UP. NO MATTER WHICH WAY, GOOD OR BAD. WHAT THIS FACILITY IS GOING TO DO IS ALLOW THE TEENAGERS TO DREAM BIG.

I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT SEVEN OF OUR TEENAGERS THAT HAVE HAD JOBS OR ARE IN PLACE IS BECAUSE WE GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO DREAM BIG. WE NEED 80, THE SAME 80 KIDS THAT GOT THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE TO CONTINUE ON WITH US UNTIL THEY

ARE IN HIGH SCHOOL AND BEYOND. >> THANK YOU.

>> THIS IS EXCITING. I KEEP THINKING ABOUT GOING FORWARD. YOU HAVE INCREASED PERSONNEL, OPERATIONAL COSTS, MAINTENANCE. YOU HAVE A BUDGET THAT CAN

SUSTAIN THAT? >> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

>> WHEN WE STARTED HERE AND JUST TELL YOU THE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT THAT WE GET THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY.

I STARTED HERE SIX YEARS AGO. WE WERE JUST AROUND THE 3 MILLION-DOLLAR BUDGET. WE SERVE 4700 KIDS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. RIGHT NOW WE ARE A 9 MILLION-DOLLAR BUDGET. AND SO, WE HAVE AN INFRASTRUCTURE, A BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS. AND DON'T ALLOW ME TO GO OUTSIDE OF THE SCOPE. IF WE CAN'T DO IT THEY WON'T ALLOW ME TO DO IT. BUT I HAVE A LOT OF IDEAS AND SOME OF THEM ARE NOT -- BUT THE BOARD FEELS GOOD THIS ONE CAN BE SUPPORTED BY CURRENT DONORS AND DONORS THAT WILL COME.

AND THAT IS JUST THE NATURE OF THE NONPROFIT WORLD.

IT'S NO DIFFERENT IN A FOR-PROFIT WORLD IS YOU DO YOUR BUSINESS, YOU GET PEOPLE YOU LOOK FOR REVENUE STREAMS AND THAT'S THE JOB OF OUR TEAM TO LOOK AT THOSE REVENUE STREAMS TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. THAT IS OUR JOB.

>> THANK YOU FOR COMING AND PRESENTING THIS VERY EXCITING PROJECT. YOU TALK ABOUT PROGRAMMING HERE.

[00:25:03]

YOU DIDN'T MENTION SOME PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES PERHAPS WITH THIS CITY AND SOME OF OUR NEEDS AND CONCERNS WITH THE COMMUNITY IN COLD WEATHER SHELTERS AND I WOULD LIKE TO FOCUS MORE. 800 KIDS IS QUITE A BIT.

THAT'S A LARGE FACILITY. CAN YOU HELP ME ENVISION WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE AN PROGRAMMING THAT WOULD TAKE PLACE?

>> I CAN TELL YOU WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON RIGHT NOW AND ANOTHER CLUB AT WESTSIDE. AND I WANT TO CLARIFY.

THE KIDS AT WESTSIDE ARE NOT THE SAME KIDS THAT ARE GOING TO GO TO THIS CLUB. THERE IS NO DUPLICATION OF KIDS.

IF YOU THINK ABOUT A PUBLIX, PUBLIX IS OVER HERE IN THE PUBLIC'S 2 MILES AWAY. THE PEOPLE OVER HERE GHOSTED THIS PUBLIC'S ON OVER HERE GO HERE.

RIGHT NOW YOU HAVE A LOT OF LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FINANCIAL LITERACY TO MIND, BODY AND SOUL. WE WANT KIDS TO BE ABLE TO THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. WE WANT TO GET KIDS IN THE TRADES. IN WHAT WE ARE DOING IS PROVIDING THE SHELL FOR WHAT KIDS WANT TO DO AND KIDS BRING TO US WHAT IS THAT THEY WANT TO DO.

CLUBS NATIONALLY HAVE ALL KINDS OF PROGRAM FROM KEEPING KIDS OUT OF RISKY BEHAVIORS. BUT WE ALSO ARE LOOKING AT THIS WORK STRESS WORKFORCE READINESS PROGRAM IN A DIFFERENT WAY BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IT'S THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB THAT WILL HELP PROVIDE THE RIGHT JOBS IN THIS COMMUNITY.

WE WILL BE LOOKING TO PARTNERS TO HELP US FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THE RIGHT JOBS AND WHAT ARE THE THINGS WE NEED TO TEACH.

AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE FUNDING THAT WE GET FOR STIPENDS WE GET THE DOLLARS NOT THE THEY CAN SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES BUT THEY CAN EARN LEARN THE EXCHANGES OF MONEY.

HOW TO SAVE, I ACTUALLY WALKED THROUGH WESTSIDE TODAY AND THERE WERE THREE DIFFERENT GROUPS IN ONE GROUP WAS ON THE COMPUTER LEARNING ABOUT THE BANKING SYSTEM AND WHAT THAT IS ABOUT.

AND THEN WE HAVE KIDS WHO NEED HELP IN READING AND MATH.

AND THAT'S WHERE WE HAVE ALL OF THE TEACHERS FOR TO HELP THE KIDS IN THOSE DIFFERENT AREAS. THE PROGRAMS ARE LARGE.

BUT IS BASED ON A CLUB AND WHAT THEY WANT TO TEACH AND WHAT THAT GROUP OF KIDS WANT TO LEARN. SOME KIDS MAY WANT TO BE A DRUMMER AND SOME WANT TO DO NAILS.

IF THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT TO DO THAN THAT'S WHAT WE'LL WORK

TOWARDS. >> THANK YOU.

I THINK MY BIGGEST MOMENT IS THE GROUP THAT IS BEING ADDRESSED IN THE 13 - 18-YEAR-OLD. WE PUT A LOT OF EMPHASIS AND SOMETIMES WILL GET LUMPED INTO THAT.

SOME ASSUMPTIONS MAY HAVE BEEN MADE.

AS I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A CLEAR DELINEATION OF 13 - 18 -YEAR-OLDS THAT WILL BE PROGRAMMED AND WORKING

THROUGHOUT THE STRUCTURE. >> YES.

>> IF I COULD ADD TO THAT. THERE IS A GOLF COURSE BEHIND HERE. I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF CONVERSATION ABOUT WHY YOU WOULD PUT A GOLF COURSE THERE.

OFFICE NOT SO MUCH ABOUT THE GOLD.

IT'S ABOUT THE GOLF PROGRAM AND ETIQUETTE CN TEACHING OUR YOUNG KIDS HOW THEY SHOULD BE NOT JUST ON THE GOLF COURSE BUT AT OTHER PLACES. THERE'S A LOT OF SCIENCE THAT KIDS CAN LEARN WHAT THESE TEENAGERS CAN LEARN NOT JUST FROM LIFE, BUT THERE IS A LOT OF CAREER IN GOLF.

>> WILL THAT BE SOMEONE MENTIONED EARLIER ABOUT THE FIRST TEE. WILL THAT PROGRAMMING BE HERE.

ARE YOU PROGRAMMING FOR THAT TEACHING OR WILL YOU HAVE ANOTHER PROGRAM THROUGH GOLF? I UNDERSTAND THE ASPECT OF GOLF IN TEACHING AND THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE THERE THAT ARE ON TAP.

HELP ME UNDERSTAND THAT. >> THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS HAVE CHANGE FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE. I KNOW WE'VE HAD A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS ALONG WITH MY TEAM I WANT TO GET THE BUILDING FIRST BECAUSE THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT VERSE.

LET'S GET THE BUILDING UP AND RUNNING WHERE WE CAN HAVE A SAFE PLACE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO GO TO. AND THEN LET'S LOOK AT IT AND PUT THE GOLF COURSE AS IT MATRICULATE'S DOWN THE ROAD.

FIRST AND FOREMOST WE HAVE TO GET A BUILDING SET UP.

I HAVE TEENAGERS RIGHT NOW THAT ARE GOING TO GO TO NINTH GRADE NEXT YEAR AND THEY DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO GO UNLESS YOU TAKE THEM OVER TO WESTSIDE WHICH SHOULD BE HONEST THEY DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO GO THERE BECAUSE IT'S FAR FOR THEM.

IN TERMS OF TRAVEL. >> THAT WAS GOOD CLARIFICATION.

I THINK AT ONE POINT WE SAW THE WHOLE VISION AND I DON'T KNOW IF

[00:30:01]

RIGHT NOW WHAT YOU ARE ASKING FOR IS TO HELP GET THE BUILDING

OFF THE GROUND AND UP. >> YES.

>> I APPRECIATE IT. I AM EXCITED TO SEE THIS COMING ON PAPER AND MOVING FORWARD WITH THE ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM.

IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN SIX OR SIX AND A HALF ACRES.

IS IT ON THE CREEK THAT LAST PARCEL? TWO I HAVE THAT LOCATION

RIGHT? >> YES.

>> I WAS LOOKING ON GOOGLE MAPS. I ALWAYS SEARCH THE MAP SYSTEM TO MAKE SURE TO MAKE YOUR OVERALL BUDGET I'M SURE YOU TALK TO SOME CONTRACTORS AND ENGINEERS.

WHAT HAVE THEY TOLD YOU THE BUILDING IS GOING TO COST IN THE

LAND SURROUNDED IT? >> THE TOTAL PROJECT IS ABOUT SIX MILLIONS DOLLARS. WHEN THE BUILDING PEACE IS OVER 4 MILLION. AND THAT HIS RECENT INFORMATION

AS EARLY AS LAST WEEK. >> THAT IS GOOD TO KNOW.

THAT PLAYS A PART IN THIS PROCESS.

THE OTHER INTERESTING THING GOING ON RIGHT NOW IN THE FPR A AND I DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE MENTIONED THIS TO YOU IS THAT RIGHT NOW IS A MORATORIUM ON IMPACT FEES.

THAT IS PART OF THAT PROCESS FORESTS AS A FPRA BOARD AND CITY CITY COMMISSION WHEN WE PUT OUR OTHER HAT ON THAT EFFORT.

ANY DEVELOPMENT DOES THIS MEET THE CONDITION?

>> IT'S VERY CLOSE. >> WE ARE ON THE BOUNDARIES.

>> THAT IS ANOTHER WAY. EVEN THOUGH IT'S SOMETHING ON PAPER. THAT IS STILL A PROCESS THAT THIS BOARD AND THE CITY COMMISSIONERS HAVE IMPLEMENTED THAT WILL HELP THE CAUSE HERE. THAT IS THE REAL COST AND THE REAL NUMBER THAT GETS PUT ON PAPER AND CAN BE DISCUSSED.

THAT IS PART OF OUR CONTRIBUTION ALREADY.

>> THAT IS WHERE WE ARE HEADED. AND I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITIES OF A NEW FACILITY THAT IS GOING TO BE HARDENED.

YOU TALKED ABOUT USING IT FOR COMMUNITY EVENTS AND I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN DISCUSSION IN MY TENURE APPEAR ABOUT HAVING A DISTRIBUTION CENTER OR HUB OF OPERATIONS DURING DECLARED DISASTERS FOR INSTANCE. YOU ENVISION SOMETHING LIKE THAT

HAPPENING. >> I DO.

NOT JUST AT THIS LOCATION. I THINK ANYBODY THAT HAS AN OPERATION LIKE THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S, CHURCH, ALL OF THOSE ENTITIES SHOULD USE THOSE PLACES AND SPACES FOR THAT.

FOR US IT WOULD BE USED FOR DURING HURRICANES AND THAT SORT OF THING. COLD WEATHER AND OTHER THINGS

THAT ARE HAPPENING. >> AT LEAST IT'S AN OPTION.

YOU KNOW DURING THOSE TIMES IT'S VERY CONFUSING.

THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF GOING ON EITHER EEOC'S ACTIVATING MEN EMERGENCY OPERATION SOME FOLKS ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE WERE GOING TO DISTRIBUTE TARPS. NOT TO BRING BACK NASTY MEMORIES BUT THAT'S REAL LIFE. I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITIES. I CAN SEE IS STARTING TO GO THROUGH A LIST. I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE ANYTHING ATTACHED TO OUR AGENDA THAT TALKS ABOUT LINE BY LINE NUMBERS BUT I'M HAPPY TO HAVE THAT CONVERSATION WITH MY FELLOW

PEERS. >> THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUESTIONS AND I HOPE YOU GOT ALL OF YOUR ANSWERS. AS A PERSON WHO WAS BORN AND RAISED IN THIS AREA, I CAN ONLY TELL YOU THAT THE IMPACT THAT I KNOW IT WOULD HAVE ON THE TEENS IN THIS AREA.

I SAID EVERY DAY. I AM UP HERE WITH COMMISSIONER JOHNSON AND THE CITY MANAGER, AND I CAN ASK BOTH OF THEM, CAN YOU IMAGINE WHEN WE WERE COMING UP IF WE HAD SOMETHING THIS SIZE IN THAT BUILDING RIGHT AT THAT LOCATION? YOU COULD'VE COME THAT WAY ME AND CURTIS COULD'VE COME THAT WAY.

>> WOULD HE KEEP YOU OUT OF TROUBLE?

>> IT WOULD HAVE BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THEY COULD NOT HAVE PICKED A BETTER LOCATION BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT KIDS ARE COMING FROM THE LINKIN PARK AREA THAT CAN ACCESS IT. KIDS CAN ACCESS IT EASILY COMING ON. THEY CAN ACCESS IT COMING TO FAR

[00:35:05]

THEY SAY MR. GAINES BECAUSE I DEAL WITH TEENAGERS ALL DAY EVERY DAY. I DEAL WITH TEENAGERS.

AND SO SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD JUST GO ALONG WITH EVERYTHING ELSE WE HAVE DONE AS A COMMUNITY AND AS COUNSEL SITTING UP HERE IT GOES TO COMMISSIONER JOHNSON WITH FORT PIERCE.

IT GOES TO THE PATHWAYS COMING INTO FORT PIERCE.

IF YOU COME THIS WAY THAN HERE IT'S GOING TO CHANGE THAT WHOLE AREA. AND IT IS JUST ANOTHER SELLING POINT FOR ANY OF THE BUSINESSES THAT ARE TRYING TO CALM TO THE DOWNTOWN AREA. WE HAVE THE CENTER HERE IN THE CENTER OVER HERE, YOUR TEENAGERS CAN GO SOMEWHERE AND LEARN OR BETTER YET IF YOU COME INTO MEET US AND TALK ABOUT BRINGING A BUSINESS, DID YOU STOP BY ONE OF THE BOYS AND GIRLS SITES TO SAY WHAT TYPE OF TRAINING PROGRAM CAN YOU OFFER TO HELP CREATE MORE JOBS FOR THE INDIVIDUALS IN FORT PIERCE? I LOVE THE IDEA.

I WANT TO SEE IT HAPPEN IN MY AREA.

I KNOW THE IMPACT IT WOULD HAVE IN MY AREA AND I AM HOPING MY MEMBERS ON THE BOARD CAN STAND WITH THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB AND

MAKE THIS A REALITY. >> I AGREE.

BECAUSE I CANNOT THINK OF A MORE DESERVING PLAYS FOR A PLACE LIKE THIS FOR THIS AGE GROUP. I CANNOT THINK OF A MORE APPROPRIATE APPROPRIATE PLACE. LET'S TALK BY B.

DO YOU NEGOTIATE LAKE REPRESENTATIVE LEE? IS THAT THE

REAL AMOUNT? >> I'M A LITTLE BIT BETTER.

>> GOOD. WE HAVE A BUDGET AND WE WORK FROM A BUDGET AND YOU DO, TOO. DO YOU GOT ALL THE HEAVY HITTERS IN THE AUDIENCE INCLUDING THE TEENS WHO ARE THE HEAVIEST HITTERS. WE KNOW YOU HAVE GOT A LOT OF SUPPORT. BUT CHECK IT PEOPLE DON'T JUST COME IN HERE EVERY DAY AND ASK US FOR HALF A MILLION DOLLARS.

AND I CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME WE GAVE ANYBODY HALF A

MILLION DOLLARS. >> CANNOT JUST CHIME IN ON THAT.

A COUPLE OF THINGS. NUMBER ONE IS I THINK IT IS TIME THAT COUNSEL GIVE US A HALF A MILLION AND WE COULD BE THE FIRST. I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT.

THERE IS ALWAYS A FIRST FOR EVERYTHING.

>> ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE THE 40000 WE GAVE YOU YESTERDAY?

>> HERE IS A FACT. WHEN WE LOOK AT THE OVERALL HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IT'S A LOT OF BODY.

BUT THE INVESTMENT LONG-TERM. >> I AGREE.

>> WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO DO IN THAT BUILDING AND DO WHAT IT WILL COST THE CITY TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THEIR OWN VERSUS HAVING A PARTNER LIKE THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB'S, HALF A MILLION IS REALLY A SAVINGS.

AND THAT IS COMING FROM SOMEBODY WHO DOES THIS FROM THE HEART.

IT. >> I DON'T DISAGREE.

I JUST DON'T WANT TO SET A PRECEDENT.

AND SO I THINK IT WE WANT TO HAVE A CONVERSATION.

EIGHT AND WE HAVE TO LOOK AT OUR BUDGET.

MR. MIMS. YOU ARE THE KEEPER OF THE

BUDGET. >> IN LOVE HOW YOU DO THAT.

MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, WE ARE GOING TO BE COMING TO YOU NEXT MONTH FOR A PROJECT BASE BUDGET.

THE EF PRA IS EXPERIENCING GAINES AND WE ARE FINALLY

SOLVENT AND MAKING. >> THEY GOT WORD OF IT.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF -- HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT BUT I DEFINITELY KNOW THAT THE PRA IS HITTING A POSITIVE STRIDE.

AND IF WE ARE INTERESTED IN DOING SOMETHING OF THIS SORT THAN WE NEED TO BUILD THIS INTO OUR PROJECT BASE BUDGET AND IT CANNOT BE BUILT IN OVER FISCAL YEARS OR IT COULD BE A ONE LUMP SUM CONTRIBUTION. HOWEVER, AS WE BRING THIS TO

[00:40:02]

IT IS IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR GENERAL FUND BUDGET AS WELL.

WE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT THE GENERAL FUND BUDGET ON JULY 11 AND THEN ON THE NEXT DAY WE COME TO YOU WITH A FPRA PROJECT BASE BUDGET AND WILL HAVE A BETTER -- GREATER IDEA HOW WE EXPEND OUR FUNDS. I CAN'T ANSWER YOU RIGHT NOW BUT I CAN TELL YOU WE CAN DEFINITELY BUILD SOMETHING INTO THE PROGRAM

FOR YOU TO CONSIDER. >> I WAS NOT LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER. I WAS HOPING YOU WOULD TALK ABOUT THE BUDGET PROCESS. [LAUGHTER]

>> AS MUCH I LOVE THIS PROJECT AND I CAN TELL EVERYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE THAT I AM ALL FOR IT. I JUST DON'T WANT TO SET A PRECEDENCE OF SAYING YES WE ARE GOING TO DO IT TODAY.

>> IT YOU ARE ASKING GOOD QUESTIONS.

WHEN YOU ASK QUESTIONS IT STIRS UP CONVERSATIONS.

WE HAVE MUCH NOT MENTION TO YOUNG PEOPLE THAT CAME OUT OF THAT LINKIN PARK COMMUNITY. ONE OF THEM IS NOW COMPETING IN THE REGIONAL -- SHE IS THE FIRST STUDENT FROM THE COUNTY TO WIN STUDENTS HAVE THE YEAR IN THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB.

SHE IS NOW COMPETING FOR THE REGIONAL.

I CAME OUT OF THE COMMUNITY. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN ON THE NEWS MY BIG NATIONAL HOME BUILD JUST GAVE ONE OF THE STUDENTS OUT OF THAT COMMUNITY OF $5000 SCHOLARSHIP.

THE OTHER THING IS THIS COMMUNITY IS COMING TOGETHER.

I TALKED ABOUT FP UA. THE SCHOOL BOARD JUMPED ON IT SOME MORE BECAUSE INSIDE IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THAT AREA WITH A TRAFFIC LAY THE SCHOOL HAS A BIG FENCE.

THIS PROPERTY OF 6.6 ACRES ALONG THE CANAL BUT INSIDE THE AREA THEY DONATED AN ACRE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

EVERYBODY IS GETTING ON BOARD. I THINK YOU ARE NOT JUST DESTINED IN THAT BUILDING AND PROJECT BUT IT'S THE KIDS.

WE ALL KNOW THAT SOME OF THE MAJOR PROBLEM WITH OUR YOUTH COMING OUT OF THAT COMMUNITY THIS CLUB IS GOING TO BE A SAFE HAVEN AND GOING TO GIVE SO MANY KIDS IN THAT AREA HOPE THAT OTHERWISE THEY MAY NOT HAVE. WE ASK IT WE HAVE A BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB AT THE HOUSING PROJECT THAT YOU COULD PUT A BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB ON EVERY CORNER AND STILL WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SERVE ALL OF THE KIDS IN NEED.

SO, AS YOU KNOW I FEEL VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS.

I THINK THAT THE TIME IS RIGHT AND COMMISSIONER GAINES IS RIGHT. WHEN PEOPLE CAME IN ON 25TH STREET AND I THINK THE DATA WILL SHOW THAT IS THE SECOND MOST NORTH SOUTH TRAVELED QUARTER IN FORT PIERCE.

PEOPLE NOW USE THAT TO GO TO -- TO AVOID THE TRAFFIC ON U.S.

ONE. WHAT BETTER GYM TO HAVE AT NIGHT. I LOVE ROYAL PALM'S BUT I CAN SEE IT WITH THE LIGHT SHINING ON IT AT NIGHT.

>> I'M BEHIND IT. >> THE WAY I FEEL LIKE YOU DON'T NEED TO SELL US. YOU CAN STOP.

BUT. >> IF I COULD SAY ONE MORE THING I ASKED WHO WAS GOING TO COME UP FIRST I WAS GOING TO SAY AS I STARTED READING THE PAPER UNLIKE DON'T DO THAT.

SO I DECIDED NOT TO GO THAT ROUTE.

>> EVEN WITH ALL OF THE HEAVY HITTERS.

>> WE APPRECIATE YOU. >> THE LAST COMMENT IS HAVE YOUR TECHNICAL EXPERTISE SCREW BRING FORWARD ALL OF THE LITTLE DETAILS AND DESIGN ELEMENTS. GET IT IN HIS OWN SO WE CAN CALCULATE THE NUMBERS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.

THAT'S A REAL NUMBER. PART OF THIS WHOLE PROCESS.

THAT'S WHY I ASKED YOU THAT INFORMATION.

>> THAT'S THE BUILDING OFFICIAL. THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT IT ALL OF

THE TIME. >> GOT IT.

THANK YOU. >> WE THANK YOU FOR COMING UP WITH THIS AND ALL OF THE PEOPLE IN THE ROOM, THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT AND REALLY EXCITING. AND NOW THE DEVIL IS IN THE

DETAILS. >> THANK YOU.

[b. Incubate Neighborhood Center Multi-service Community Hub Update]

[APPLAUSE] >> THE NEXT ITEM IS INCUBATES IT CENTER MULTISERVICE COMMUNITY HUB UPDATE.

>> MR. MIMS. >> MEMBER MADAME OF THE BOARD WE HAVE WITH US A SUCCESSFUL COMMUNITY PARTNER FROM INCUBATE NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER. WE HAVE CARNELIAN A GARDENER THAT IS GOING TO GIVE US AN UPDATE AS TO THE ACTIVITIES AND PROGRESS OF THE PROJECT THAT WAS THESE RECENTLY AWARDED.

I THINK IT WAS SIX OR EIGHT MONTHS AGO.

[00:45:04]

>> I AM EXCITED TO SEE YOU. AND SO, WHO IS GOING FIRST?

>> I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME BEFORE YOU ON THIS AFTERNOON. IT IS ABOUT SEVEN OR EIGHT MONTHS AGO I WAS HERE TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE WANT TO DO WITH THE BUILDING. AND I AM EXCITED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT HAS BEEN DONE TO THE BUILDING.

>> THAT'S EXCITING. >> WE HAVE SEEN IT.

>> MY NAME IS CAMELLIA. I AM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER. WE ARE KNOWN TO THE COMMUNITY AS INCAN. WE THINK EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE EQUAL BUT EQUITABLE ACCESS TO RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITY.

OUR PROGRAM MISSION WHY WE EXIST IS TO REVITALIZE POOR COMMUNITIES OF COLOR LIKE LINKIN PARK.

WE HAVE THREE CORE PROGRAMS. THE FIRST IS OUR ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAM CALLED -- ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND OPERATION KNOWN AS CEO. IT IS A NATIONAL BUSINESS MODEL CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED ACROSS 50 COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE NATION.

IT HAS FOUR PILLARS. THE FIRST IS TRAINING OF BASIC BUSINESS FOUNDATION. A LOT OF PEOPLE OPEN BUSINESSES BUT THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO SUSTAIN THEIR BUSINESS.

GOING INTO IT WITH A STRONG BUSINESS FOUNDATION THE SECOND PILLAR IS LEADING. THE THIRD PILLAR IS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE. THAT'S ALL THE BUSINESS SERVICES. THE FOURTH PILLAR IS REAL ESTATE, BRICK AND MORTAR AND GIVING INTO THE LOCATION.

WE ARE CURRENTLY TRAINING 15 BUSINESSES RIGHT NOW.

THIS COHORT STARTED WITH 17. WE GRADUATED IN A WEEK AND A HALF. WE ARE 15 STRONG BUSINESSES.

WE HELP ANOTHER 100 MINORITY OWNED BUSINESSES ON THE LIST TO GET INTO THE PROGRAM. WE ARE DOING THE WORK.

THE NEXT PROGRAM IS CULVERT. IT'S A SIMPLE PROGRAM.

OUR COMMUNITY IS WORK RICH WITH WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT.

WE PLUG THEM INTO THE FUNNEL THAT IS ALREADY EXISTING IN OPPORTUNITIES AND TRAINING WHAT IS THE MORE OFTEN IS THEY JUST DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO GO AND WHAT TO START.

WE HAVE COMMUNITY PARTNERS. THE DREAM HOMES AND OUR HOMEOWNERSHIP PROGRAM. SEVENTY-SIX PEOPLE HAVE REGISTERED FOR THE DREAM HOME PROGRAM.

WE HAVE A TOTAL OF 55 THAT HAVE ACTUALLY COMPLETED PHASE ONE.

THAT PROGRAM HAS A TOTAL OF SIX PHASES.

THE FIRST IS THEY ARE JUST GOING TO LEARN EVERYTHING ABOUT HOW TO BECOME A HOMEOWNER. WE HAVE 56 PEOPLE TO ACTUALLY GO THROUGH THE FACE. THE OTHER ONE ARE WAITING ON THE NEXT CLASS TO START. WE HAVE TWO CLASSES PER MONTH.

WE HAVE ONE ON A SATURDAY ON ONE ON A WEEKDAY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COVER BOTH BASES TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE FULL.

ALSO LOOKING AT THE CREDIT. ONLY 20 TO MAKE 20% OF THE PARTICIPANTS ACTUALLY REALIZE THIS PHASE.

THAT'S TO HAVE A CREDIT REPAIR WORKSHOP AND THEY PARTNER WITH A CREDIT COUNSELOR PERSON THAT WORKS ONE-ON-ONE WITH THEM TO CREATE AN INDIVIDUALIZED PATHWAY TO HELP IMPROVE THEIR HOME.

THE THIRD PHASE IS TO BE PREAPPROVED FOR THEIR HOME.

SOME HAVE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT PHASE -- ON THE FOURTH PHASES ONCE THEY HAVE THE PREAPPROVAL THEY ARE WORKING WITH THE REALTOR TO GO OUT AND LOOK FOR THE DREAM HOME.

ONCE THEY PUT IN THE OFFER AND ACCEPT THE OFFER THEY WOULD GO TO PHASE FIVE WHICH IS CLOSING. ONCE THEY CLOSE THEY GO TO PHASE SIX AND WILL HAVE A HOME DEDICATION CEREMONY FOR THEM.

ALSO BRING THEM BACK INTO TEACH THEM HOW TO MAINTAIN THEIR HOME.

THAT IS A VERY IMPORTANT PHASE AS WELL.

SPACE UTILIZATION. SO FAR WE HAVE HAD THE BLACK HEALTH PANEL -- SUMMER KICKOFF AND BASKETBALL TURNOFF.

BASIC COMPUTER CLASSES. EVERY WEDNESDAY -- COMES OUT TO PROVIDE FOOD TO THE COMMUNITY. ALSO THE HEALTH CENTER COMES OUT IN THAT WE JUST PARTNER WITH THE HANDS OF ST. LUCIE COUNTY AND WILL BE COMING OUT ON THURSDAY. FINANCIAL LITERACY AND ENTREPRENEUR CLASSES. WE HAVE A PARTNERSHIP WITH DRUG-FREE ST. LUCIE. WE HAVE THE INITIATIVE HIDDEN IN

[00:50:03]

WE HAVE A DEDICATED GROUP OF BUSINESS ADVISORS THAT IS INVITING LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS TO WANT TO PUT UP THEIR OWN MONEY TO INVEST IN THESE ENTREPRENEUR BUSINESSES.

AND SO IT'S EXCITING BECAUSE THE NEXT ONE IS NEXT WEEK.

AND WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE IN JULY. AND THE OTHER ONE IS GOING TO BE IN SEPTEMBER. BUDGETS GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET A BIG GET -- TO GET THEM TO HELP SCALE THEIR BUSINESS.

THE EXCITED TO BE HOLDING THE JUNETEENTH FREEDOM BLOCK PARTY CELEBRATION IS GOING TO BE ON SITE.

THAT'S THIS COMING FRIDAY FROM 5:00 P.M. UNTIL 10:00 P.M.

THE REASON WHY I PUT THE PICTURE HERE IS BECAUSE THE NEXT IT'S GOING TO BE HOW WE PIN IT ON THE COLUMNS.

ON THE RIGHT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THIS LOOKS A LITTLE BIT MORE MODERN AND CLEAN. WE DO EXTERIOR PAINTING AND ALSO HAVE -- THERE IS A LITTLE BIT OF MILDEW ON THE BUILDING SO A POWER WASH. AND WE HAVE THE SIDEWALKS POWER WASHED AS WELL. THIS IS OUR MAIN ENTRANCE.

THE PICTURE TO THE RIGHT IS ACTUALLY WALLPAPER THAT WE HUNG IN THE BUILDING AND THIS IS OUR RECEPTION DESK.

WHEN PEOPLE COME BY HAPTICS SYNANON AND AND THEN THEY CAN UTILIZE OTHER SPACES. THIS PHASES ALREADY COMPLETED.

THAT THE INITIAL PHASE WAS TO JUST TAKE POSSESSION OF THE BUILDING THEN PREPARE THE FACILITY TO BE UTILIZED BY THE COMMUNITY. IT IS TO RETROFIT THE CURRENT SPACE. TO PROVIDE THAT A FACELIFT AND THAT INCLUDED INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PAINTING TO CREATE A WARM AND INVITING ATMOSPHERE. FACE 1.1 WAS TO PREPARE THE THINK TANK WHICH IS OUR FLEX SPACE FOR THE SENIOR PROGRAM RIGHT NOW. IT IS THE TV PRODUCTION AREA.

WE WILL REPLACE FLOORING AND AIR-CONDITIONERS.

THE ADDED FURNITURE. PHASE 1.2 INCLUDES A BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY CENTER A CONFERENCE ROOM, COPY CENTER, INTERNET CAÉE . AND A BATHROOM REFRESH. THIS IS THE BEFORE PICTURE OF THE INTERNET CAFÉ. AND THIS WORK GOOD BECAUSE WE HAD A LOT OF CORDS EVERYWHERE. THAT THERE WAS HOLES IN THE RUG THAT YOU COULD SEE OUTSIDE. SO, WE REMOVE THE CARPET, WE REMOVED THE COUNTERTOPS AND CABINETS.

AND SO WE PUT A ROOF -- NEW FLOORING AND ALSO BRING A NEW COUNTERTOPS WE HAVE A REFRIGERATOR AND THIS AREA IS THE INTERNET CAFÉ. WE HAVE COMPUTERS JUST IN CASE PEOPLE DON'T HAVE ONE. A LOT OF PEOPLE ALREADY HAVE LAPTOPS. THEY MAY NOT HAVE THE INTERNET.

THEY COME IN ITS WARM AND INVITING.

IT THEY GET ON TO -- WHICH IS SPONSORED BY COMCAST.

SO THAT IS THE FREE WI-FI. THIS IS A SOUNDPROOF BOOTH.

SO WE ACTUALLY HAD THIS CUSTOM BAR THAT WRAPPED AROUND.

THIS IS ANOTHER WALLPAPER AND WE PUT A NICE TOWEL AND BACKSPLASH THAT MATCHES THE ONE OVER THE COUNTERTOPS.

WE PARTNERED WITH THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB PROVIDING PASTRIES AND COFFEE FREE EVERY MORNING AND THEN WE HAVE WATER IN THE REFRIGERATOR AS WELL. PEOPLE CAN COME AND GET A SNACK AND SIT DOWN AND GET TO WORK. THIS IS WHAT THE SPACE LOOK LIKE FROM THE SINGLE. IN IT'S A POTENT 95% DONE.

WE JUST NEED TO ADD MORE ARTWORK AND WE NEED TO PUT A WALL A BEAUTIFUL WALLPAPER. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FROM THE SIDE. FIFTY PEOPLE CAN FIT IN THIS ROOM COMFORTABLY. WHAT IS YOU CAN SEE THE EVENING

[00:55:01]

THE NEXT IS OUR THINK TANK WHICH IS A TEMPORARY SPACE.

AT 3000 SQUARE FEET AND WE HAVE CONVERSATION STATIONS.

THE TV PRODUCTION STUDIO, CARPET, INTERIOR PAINT, REPLACE THE AIR CONDITIONER, ADD NEW FURNITURE AND CARPET.

THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW. THIS IS FROM THIS ANGLE.

OUR COMMUNITY WE LOVE THEM AND THEY ARE INVITED INTO THE SPACE.

THIS IS OUR LIBRARY THAT IS IN THE BACKGROUND AND I WILL TALK ABOUT THAT IN A MINUTE. THE BUSINESS LIBRARY, THIS WAS THE ACTUAL STAGE. THAT IS WHY THIS FLOORING IS DIFFERENT. IT WAS A PINK CARPET THAT WAS DOWN. IT TOOK A LOT TO GET THAT UP.

AND WE PAINTED THAT THE CABINETS.

AND WE PAINTED THE FLOORS. OUR AWESOME VOLUNTEERS DEDICATED A LOT OF BOOKS AND HELP TO DISPLAY THE BOOKS.

THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW. WE HAVE A SECTION THAT IS A CHILDREN'S SECTION. IN THIS SECTION THAT WE DID WE RECENTLY ADDED A COMPUTER JUST IN CASE SOMEBODY NEEDS TO DO RESEARCH. WE UTILIZE THE BOOKS AND THEY HAVE ACCESS TO PRINT FROM THE COMPUTER.

THIS IS THE CONFERENCE ROOM IN THAT SPACE.

IF IT'S ABOUT EIGHT PEOPLE COMFORTABLY.

IT HAS A LIBRARY AND WE HAD TO REMOVE THE CARPETS.

WE DID INTERIOR PAINTING. WE ADDED THE VIDEO PRESENTATION.

WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO DO POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS AND PUT A NEW FURNITURE AS WELL. THE NEXT IS OUR INTERACTIVE ART GALLERY WHICH WE PUT IN THE DOWNSTAIRS MAIN HALLWAY.

IT DISPLAYS HISTORY. ALSO AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY, POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS WHICH IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT BECAUSE SOMETIMES WHEN LIFE BEATS YOU UP YOU DON'T FEEL GOOD ABOUT YOURSELF. WE ARE GOING TO CONSTANTLY TELL PEOPLE THAT THEY ARE WORTHY OF EVERYTHING THEY HAVE COMING.

ART FROM LOCAL ARTISTS. AND IT CREATES A CULTURAL EXPERIENCE. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE BEFORE. ON THESE ARE PICTURES OF HOW WE TRANSITION ONE THING IS THE TILE.

THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW. THIS IS A POSITIVE AFFIRMATION ON THE WALL. MINDSET IS EVERYTHING.

DON'T WISH WORK, WORK FOR IT. DEDICATION, NO EXCUSES.

THERE'S A LOT IT VARIES BY COLORS.

AND THIS IS SOME OF THE ARDOR. THE ART TO THE TOP RIGHT IS A LOCAL ARTISTS. WE HAVE TABLETS I JUST HAVE NOT INSTALLED THAT YET. WHICH OF THE ARTISTS WITH HISTORY ABOUT THEMSELVES AND TALK ABOUT THE ARTS AND IF THEY WANT TO BUILD THEIR WEBSITE SOMEONE CAN INTERACT WITH THE ART. THAT'S WHY SEE INTERACTIVE ART GALLERY. THIS ART RATE HERE HAS A POSITIVE AFFIRMATION ON IT. THE ONE TO THE LEFT SAYS NEVER GIVE UP. THE ONE TO THE RIGHT, ANOTHER POSITIVE AFFIRMATION. WE WANTED TO GIVE POSITIVE MESSAGES THROUGHOUT ARTS. AS YOU CAN SEE THE FURNITURE IS VERY MODERN. THIS IS AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY TO THE RIGHTS. TO THE LEFT AS A LOCAL ARTISTS.

THIS IS ALSO A LOCAL ARTISTS. THE PICTURE TO THE LEFT ONE ACTUALLY TOOK A PHOTO IS THEN CAME BACK AND PAINTED HER.

SHE IS THE SAME ARTIST OR THE RIGHT.

THAT IS THE BACK DOOR. ON THEN TO THE RIGHT CADIZ HISTORY OF THE BUILDING THAT WE HAVE ON DISPLAY.

THE NEXT IS GOING TO BE OUR CLASSROOM THAT WE PAINTED THE NEW FURNITURE AND HOLDS ABOUT 25 PEOPLE.

WE HAVE NEW COMPUTERS, VISUAL TECHNOLOGY PROJECTOR, A PODIUM AND FACILITATORS DESK. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS ONE OF THE STAFF MEMBERS. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW AND IS PROBABLY THE MOST UTILIZED ROOM IN THE BUILDING.

WE HAVE OUR ENTREPRENEURSHIP CLASSES, HOMEOWNERSHIP CLASSES, THIS MORNING SOME OF THAT IS USS CLASS AND OUR BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY CENTER FOR TRAINING BUT THIS IS BEING USED ALL OF THE TIME. MAIN STREET HAD THE BLACK WAX MUSEUM IN THIS SPACE AS WELL. OUR BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY CENTER

[01:00:08]

RIGHT NOW BARRIER IS THAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE INTERNET AT HOME YOU ALSO DON'T HAVE A PRINTER AT HOME BUT IF YOU NEED SERVICES HAD SOCIAL SERVICE ENTITY THEY TELL YOU TO BRING COPIES OF THIS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO GET COPIES THAT CAN CREATE A BARRIER.

WE HAVE AN ORGANIZATION WITHIN HALF A MILE OF US THAT CHARGE $2 FOR A BLACK-AND-WHITE COPY. HIS STAPLES, IF THEY DON'T HAVE THE COPY TO MAKE IT YOU HAVE TO GET ON A COMPUTER.

IT IS A DOLLAR AND HALF A MINUTE TO UTILIZE THEIR COMPUTERS TO MAKE A COPY. HERE, YOU CAN JUST SIT DOWN AND I WILL SHOW YOU THE PICTURE. YOU CAN SIT DOWN AND MAKE A COPY AND CREATE A SORTING STATION. WE GIVE THEM PAPERCLIPS THEY CAN STAPLE PAPERS OR TAKE THEM BUT ALL OF THE COMPUTERS ARE VERY MODERN. WE JUST WANT TO MAKE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND HAVE THEM FEEL GOOD.

THAT'S WHAT I'M LEARNING THE MOST.

SOMETIMES WHEN YOUR HOME ENVIRONMENT IS NOT THE BEST THEY LIKE TO BE IN A PLACE WHERE IT FEELS VERY INVITING.

THIS IS THE BATHROOM. THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW.

IN THE AND SO WE DID INTERIOR PAINTING, UPDATED THE FLOORS IN THE SOAP DISPENSERS AND TRASH CANS AND ALL OF THE SIGNAGE IN THE BATHROOM AND ALSO GETTING READY TO ADDRESS -- AS WELL.

THIS IS ONE OF OUR SHARED OFFICE SPACES.

WE HAVE ABOUT 1,600 SQUARE FEET OF SHARED OFFICE WORKSPACE.

THESE ARE THE CUBICLES OF THE SPACES.

WE DO HAVE RESOURCES THEY ARE. SOMETIMES SOME OF THOSE ENTITIES WOULD HAVE A PRIVATE PLACE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION.

THEY THEN UTILIZE THE SPACE OR MAYBE ANOTHER ENTITY WANTS US TO CLAIM OUR SPACE SO THEY UTILIZE THIS AS WELL.

THIS IS THAT THE SHARED RESOURCES.

PHASE TWO IS PROGRESS TO DO. THAT IS TO PREPARE FOR THE BUSINESS INCUBATOR. THE FLEX SPACE FOR THIS EEO PROGRAM TO REPLACE THE FLOORING, THE AIR CONDITIONER.

UPGRADE BATHROOM SAID FURNITURE AND AN ELEVATOR.

INTERIOR PAINTING, AT A COPY AND PRINT CENTER.

DATA CLASSROOM. AT A CONFERENCE CONFERENCE ROOM.

THE BREAKROOM BECAUSE THE BUSINESSES SOME MAY NEED TO UTILIZE OUR ADDRESS FOR THEIR BUSINESS LICENSE.

BUT WE NEED TO HAVE A DEDICATED STATE SPACE FOR THEM TO GET THEIR MAIL WHICH IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.

AND INDIVIDUAL OFFICES. SOME STUFF WE HAVE DONE WE DO HAVE A COPY AND PRINT CENTER ON SITE SO WE CAN DO SIGNS AND HEAVY BUILT COPY. SOME GRAPHICS LIKE SHIRTS AND STUFF LIKE THAT BECAUSE IF WE DO THAT FOR THE BUSINESSES WE ARE WORKING WITH TO SAVE MONEY WITH THE HOPES THAT THEY REALLOCATE THEIR SAVINGS BACK INTO THEIR BUSINESS.

IN PHASE THREE SHOPS AT THE VILLAGE.

THIS IS DESIGNED TO RESET ECONOMIC BASE.

IT IS GOING TO BE A PART OF RESTORING THE VILLAGE INITIATIVE. WE WANT TO HAVE 20 DEDICATED -- THIS WILL BE ON THE LAND WHERE THE BASKETBALL COURT IS NOW.

TWENTY DEDICATED RETAIL SHOPS FOR OUR CEO PROGRAM.

THE PLAN IS THAT WE TRAIN NOW AND SOME NEED TO LOCATE AND THAT'S WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO FINISH PHASE TWO.

THEY COULD BE UPSTAIRS AND BUILD THEIR CLIENTELE AND THEN WE CAN MOVE THEM TO OUTSIDE WHERE THEY CONTINUE TO BUILD THEIR CLIENTELE TO MOVE INTO BRICK-AND-MORTAR.

WE DO A FEASIBILITY STUDY AND ONE THING THAT WAS OBVIOUS TO US IS THAT IN LINKIN PARK THERE IS NOT A LOT OF LEGITIMATE BUSINESSES. I THINK BUSINESSES NEED TO BE LEGITIMATE SO THAT THEY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE PPP FUND ON THE OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE THEY DON'T PAY TAXES OR THEY TRY TO WRITE OFF EVERYTHING. THEY HAVE LEARNED THAT STRONG BUSINESS FOUNDATIONAL IN THIS EEO PROGRAM.

WE BRING IN THE EXPERTS AND SAY THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU DO.

THIS IS THE RIGHT WAY TO DO YOUR BUDGET.

I SEE THESE YOUNG PEOPLE AND ENTREPRENEURS COME ALIVE BECAUSE

[01:05:02]

BECAUSE OUR PLAN IN ORDER TO REVITALIZE THAT AREA, THE BEST WAY STRATEGICALLY AND STATISTICALLY TO BUILD THAT WITHIN THE COMMUNITY IS FROM WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.

AND THAT IS THROUGH STRONG BUSINESS ENTREPRENEURSHIP.

THIS PROGRAM THAT WE ARE IMPLEMENTING HAS SO MUCH STATISTICS ABOUT IT. EACH BUSINESS GROWS THEIR BUSINESS TO HIRE AND CREATE JOBS THAT AN AVERAGE OF SIX JOBS FOR BUSINESS. AND THEY ALSO PLAY A PAY DOLLARS BACK INTO THE LOCAL TAXES. IT IS BENEFICIAL TO THEM TO GET UP AND GET STARTED SO THEY CAN PAY BACK MONEY INTO THE COMMUNITY. BUSINESS OWNERS DO BECOME BUSINESS MENTORS. THAT IS PRETTY MUCH OUR CORE AND FOCUS JUST TO TRY TO GET THE BUSINESSES WHERE THEY NEED TO BE. THESE BUSINESS OWNERS HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR EIGHT YEARS AND SOME MAKE A LOT OF MONEY BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING IT TO THE POINT WHERE THEY CAN SCALE EFFECTIVELY. WE ARE GIVING THEM THE BLUEPRINT. SO SHOPS AT THE VILLAGE WANTS TO CREATE THAT FUNNEL. SO HOLD THEIR HAND AND WALK THAT JOURNEY TO GROW THEIR CLIENTELE SO THEY CAN SUSTAIN PAST THAT TWO YEAR MARK WHICH YOU KNOW IS DIFFICULT FOR SMALL BUSINESS TO GET PAST TWO YEARS. IT'S GOING TO BE LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SIDE TO CREATE THAT PIPELINE OF RETAIL SPACES FOR OUR PARTICIPANTS IT GIVES TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE.

AND IT'S GOING TO HAVE SHADED SEATING AREAS.

A CENTRAL THEME OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN HISTORY TO REALLY DRIVE TOURISM. ONE THING WE WANT TO ADD IS WHAT WE DO FOR THE HERITAGE TOUR. WE HAVE A SCHEDULE.

SO IT'S A PLACE THEY WANT TO BE AT BECAUSE OF THE RICH HISTORY THAT IS GOING TO BE THERE AS WELL AS THE HIGHWAYMEN IS GOING TO BE RIGHT IN FRONT OF US SO ALL OF US ARE COLLECTIVELY WORKING TOGETHER TO PUSH TOURISM INTO THE LINKIN PARK COMMUNITY.

PHASE FOUR IS ALL ABOUT BEAUTIFICATION.

THAT'S THE BENEFIT, THE COMMUNITY GARDEN, HYDROPONIC FARM AND PRODUCE PRODUCTION CONTAINER.

THIS MIGHT HAPPEN SOONER THAN LATER.

JUST ENTER INTO A PARTNERSHIP WITH ANOTHER ENTITY.

THIS COULD HAPPEN WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR.

HOW EVERYTHING IS LINING UP TO CREATE THIS ON OUR SITE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THAT IS OUR UPDATED AND WHAT WE DO TO UTILIZE EVERY INCH OF THE FACILITY.

I AM APPRECIATIVE FOR YOU ENTRUSTING ME TO BE THE LEAD ON IT. ANY QUESTIONS MICRO.

>> YOUR PRESENTATION HAS PROVED OUR FAITH IN YOU.

VERY IMPRESSIVE. QUESTIONS OR DISCUSSION?

>> LINKIN PARK MAIN STREET MEETS THEY ARE NOT GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE IT EVERY TIME I COME. I'VE ONLY HAD ONE RESIDENT AT THE MEETING BECAUSE THAT'S MY MEETING PLACE ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS. BUT I KNOW WHAT YOU WENT THROUGH. I SAW THE BUILDING AND I JUST WANT TO SAY FROM THIS HE, GREAT JOB.

>> ABSOLUTELY. >> I WOULD ECHO THAT.

IT IS A TELL ALL. AS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER MYSELF I AM LOOKING TO TAKE SERVICES DOWN THERE FOR MY BUSINESS WHEN I MEET WITH CLIENTS TO COME TO TOWN I WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT SOME OF THAT PROGRAMMING. I AM EXCITED.

THIS WAS THE VISION I HAD SEEN IN OTHER COMMUNITIES WHERE HE LIVED THAT WAS MISSING. YOU HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB OF STEPPING UP TO PROVIDE THOSE SERVICES AND THE BUSINESSES THAT ARE HERE WILL BENEFIT AS A RESULT FROM THIS.

ONE OF THE ENGAGEMENTS OF -- WAS HELD HERE IN THIS BUILDING.

THAT COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP WAS VERY GOOD BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO GET A VERY STRONG SIGNAL TO BROADCAST FROM THERE.

IT'S BECOMING A GREAT PLACE TO DO TOWN HALLS FROM BECAUSE IT IS A VERY GOOD BROADCAST PLACE AS WELL AS THE INTERNET SIGNAL.

WITH THAT HUGE GREEN SCREEN AND THE IMAGINATION CAN REALLY RUN WILD. THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO AND YOUR STAFF. LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON

[c. Authorization to advertise an RFP 2022-021 City of Fort Pierce Florida Highwaymen Museum.]

FRIDAY. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> THE NEXT ITEM IS AUTHORIZATION TO ADVERTISE OUR FP 2022-021 CITY OF FORT PIERCE FLORIDA HIGHWAY MEN MUSEUM.

[01:10:05]

>> MATTA MAYOR, MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE FPRA BOARD A SPECIAL COURT NADER COMING BACK AND SHE.

>> MULTITASKING. >> I SAW HER RUNNING AWAY.

>> SHE IS GOING TO TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR UPCOMING

RFP FOR OUR MUSEUM. >> CAN YOU TOP THIS PREVIOUS

PRESENTATION? >> ABSOLUTELY NOT.

I WON'T EVEN TRY. I SAID WHEN I TALK TO HER BECAUSE WE TALKED FREQUENTLY IS THAT YOU ARE JUST MAKING ME TIRED. IT IS AMAZING WHAT SHE HAS BEEN

>> I TO THINK THAT BUILDING WOULD TURN INTO THAT.

>> IS BEAUTIFUL. >> MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE FPRA BOARD. I AM PRESENTING TO YOU AND RFP FOR THE UTILIZATION OF THE JACKIE BUILDING TO HOUSE THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE FLORIDA HIGHWAY MEN MUSEUM.

THE REASON WHY WE ARE HAVING TO REQUEST PROPOSALS FOR THIS SPACES BECAUSE LAST YEAR WHEN WE BEGAN TO IMPLEMENT THE VISION FOR LINKIN PARK THIS BUILDING BECAME AVAILABLE.

WE MOVED TO LINCOLN PARTON MAIN STREET TO MAIN STREET CENTER.

WE WANTED TO GIVE THE HIGHWAY MEN A HOME IN A PLACE WHERE THEY COULD OPERATE A BASE OPERATION FOR THEIR ORGANIZATION WITH THE THOUGHT THAT THIS COULD BECOME A MUSEUM TO HOUSE THEIR WORKS OF ART. AND BASICALLY AT THAT TIME WE COULD ONLY ENTER INTO A TEMPORARY ONE YEAR AGREEMENT WITH THEM. WITH THE THOUGHT THAT WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN OUR STANCE AS IT RELATES TO THE COMMUNITY IN OUR CITY OF FORCE PIERCE ORDINANCES. WE HAVE TO PUT THE SPACE OUT FOR A PROPOSAL WHEN WE ARE LOOKING TO EXTEND OUR CONTRACT FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. AND THAT IS WHY WE ARE HERE TODAY, IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COMPLY WITH THOSE ORDINANCES THAT ARE IN PLACE. AND SO WHAT WE WILL BE DOING IS, IF APPROVED TODAY TO WE WILL ISSUE TO PUBLISH AN THE 21ST.

IT HAS TWO ADVERTISING DATES. THE 21ST ON THE 26.

THE RFPS WILL BE DUE JULY 22. DURING THE MONTH OF AUGUST WE ANTICIPATE PULLING A COMMITTEE TOGETHER TO EVALUATE THE PROPOSALS PRESENTED AND IN SEPTEMBER PRESENT THE RECOMMENDATIONS TO THIS BOARD FOR APPROVAL.

QUESTIONS? >> DO YOU KNOW HOW WE ARE DOING

ON THE LICENSE PLATE? >> I HAVE NOT CHECKED RECENTLY.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS OVER 300. >> I'M NOT CERTAIN IF IT HAS

REACHED 200 YEN. >> THAT MAY BE.

>> WE KEEP ADVERTISING IT IN THE CITY MANAGER ON THE WEBSITE AND

EVERYTHING. >> I CAN GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE GRANT. IN.

>> WE HAVE RECEIVED THE CONTRACT FROM THE STATE.

WE ARE LOOKING THROUGH THAT TO ENSURE THAT WE COMPLY WITH THE PROCEDURES AND EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN OUTLINED.

WE HAD TO CERTIFY OUR BUDGET AND GET THAT BACK TO THEM AND WE HAD SOME INCREASES BECAUSE OF THE COSTS.

IT HAS BEEN SOMETIME SINCE WE INITIALLY SUBMITTED THE BUDGET.

WE HAVE A FEW INCREASES AND WE EXPECTED THAT.

ONCE WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW THE CONTRACT IT WILL BE SIGNED AND THEN WE WILL SEND IT BACK.

WE CAN BEGIN TO PUT OUT AN RFP FOR A GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO OVERSEE THE PROJECT. JUST ABOUT EVERY ASPECT OF THE GRANT IS GOING TO HAVE TO BE PUT OUT FOR REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL ON THAT AS A STATE REQUIREMENT. MAKE ANY QUESTIONS JUST A FOLLOW-UP ON THE LICENSE. I THINK IT WOULD BE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO ADVERTISE THIS WEEKEND WITH THE JUNETEENTH EVENTS GOING ON AND ESPECIALLY WITH THE BLOCK PARTY TO PUT

[01:15:01]

I DO KNOW THE FAMILY OF HIGHWAY MEN, MR. WALKER -- THEY TALKED ABOUT THE MUSEUM AND THE HIGHWAY ON THE LICENSE TAKE.

JUST AN OPPORTUNITY I KNOW ALL OF THESE EVENTS THAT ARE COMING UP JUNETEENTH. WE COULD GET ONE, TWO, THREE AND

ANY SALES WE GET. >> I WILL DEFINITELY MENTION THAT TO MS. GARDNER. SHE HAS ADDED A POP-UP ART GALLERY TO THE EVENT ON FRIDAY NIGHT.

THIS WOULD BE MOST APPROPRIATE. >> WE FULLY EXPECT THE GROUP THATIS IN THERE NOW TO APPLY FOR THIS BUT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS. IT COULD BE SOMEONE ELSE.

OKAY. >> I LIKE THE TIMELINE.

I THINK IT'S THE RIGHT APPROACH AND IT GETS US AT THE RIGHT MOMENT IN LIFE. WHAT IS THE AGREEMENT NOW? WHAT ARE THE DATES? FOR THE LEASE AGREEMENT?

>> IT IS GOING TO BE UP IN AUGUST.

>> WE ARE CUTTING IT CLOSE. >> YES.

>> AT THAT POINT WE DISCUSSED WITH MR. MIMS THAT WE WILL GO WITH A MONTH-TO-MONTH AGREEMENT WITH THE ORGANIZATION AS IT RELATES TO THEM REMAINING IN THE BUILDING UNTIL WE CAN GET THE

RFP BEFORE YOU. >> DOES THAT PASS OUR TEST FOR

LEGAL BOUNDS? >> I THINK WE'LL BE OKAY.

>> OKAY. >> THE UNION EMOTION? MAC I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THIS TIMELINE AND BROADCAST THE RFP.

>> SECOND. >> THERE IS EMOTION AND IN A SECOND. CALL THE ROLE.

>>

[d. Avenue D Streetscape Update by City Engineer]

STREET SCAPE UPDATE. >> OF SPECIAL PROJECTS CORD NADER WILL REMAIN IN THE AREA BUT WE WILL HAVE A CITY ENGINEER WHO IS GOING TO GO OVER THE NEXT TWO ITEMS THAT ARE ADJACENT TO ALL OF THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT LATELY.

THE INK CENTER AND THE MUSEUM. >> GOOD AFTERNOON.

WE EXPECT TO HAVE 100% PLANS BY JULY, BY THE END OF JULY.

AT THAT TIME WE WILL DO OUR FINAL REVIEW, GO BACK TO THE CONSULTANT FOR THE FINAL TWEAKING.

AND OUR INTENTION IS TO PROCEED RIGHT TO BID AND HAVE CONSTRUCTION THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR.

WE ARE LOOKING TO MOVE THIS PROJECT ALONG.

CONSTRUCTION SHOULD GO FAIRLY QUICKLY ON THIS SECTION FROM 29TH TWO U.S. ONE. THAT WOULD BE MOSTLY A MALE AND RESURFACE ON RECONSTRUCTION OF THE CROSSWALKS AND THE OTHER SECTIONS WILL TAKE A LITTLE BIT LONGER FROM U.S. 12 INDIAN RIVER DRIVE BECAUSE THAT WILL BE TOTAL RECONSTRUCTION.

AND WE WILL HAVE A LOT OF UTILITY WORK AND PAVING AND DRAINAGE AND EVERYTHING IN THAT. WE ARE HOPING THAT WE HAVE ONE GOOD CONTRACTOR WHO WILL COME IN AND COMPLETE THIS PROJECT.

>> TO THINK YOU WILL BE DONE BY THE FIRST PHASE BY CHRISTMAS?

>> I WON'T HOLD YOU TO THE. >> IS THT TOO AMBITIOUS?

>> TOTAL CONSTRUCTION WILL BE EIGHT MONTHS TO A YEAR.

>> ANY QUESTIONS? >> THE NEXT ITEM IS PUBLIC

[e. Proposed free public parking lot in the 1200 Block Avenue D.]

AVENUE D. >> YOU WANT TO START.

>> I WOULD HAVE THE SAME THING. >> MR. ANDREWS AND HIS TEAM JUST PUT TOGETHER ONE OF THE BEST LOOKING PARKING FACILITIES I HAVE EVER SEEN. I CHALLENGE SHAQ TO DO THE SAME

[01:20:03]

>> HOW CAN YOU TOP THAT? >> HE'S GOING TO.

>> CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. >> I KNOW BEFORE PROPOSAL TO IMPROVE THIS PARCEL THAT THE CITY HAS TWO PROVIDE SOME OFFSTREET PARKING IN THE AVENUE B COURT ORDER.

IN THE PRESENTATION. YOU WILL SEE AN ESTIMATED COST AND YOU WILL ALSO SEE A PRICE FOR A TEMPORARY PARKING LOT.

MY RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE TO GO FOR THE PERMANENT PARKING LOT.

WE TEND TO DO THIS A LOT OF TIMES TO MAKE TEMPORARY PARKING

LOTS. >> TEMPORARY LONG TERM.

>> I THINK FOR THE REVITALIZATION AND THEY CONTINUED GROWTH OF THE AVENUE D SECTION WE NEED TO GO IN AND DO AN ATTRACTIVE PARKING LOT TO FOLLOW OUR CODES TO PROVIDE DRAINAGE, PROVIDE A PERMANENT SURFACE AND TO DO A VERY NICE LOOKING PARKING LOT IN THAT AREA.

>> IT WILL BE THROUGH THE CHALLENGE OUT AND HE THREW IT

BACK. >> I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT

HAPPENED THERE. >> YOU ARE GETTING GOOD AT THIS PING-PONG THING. I THINK THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. I BELIEVE THAT THIS DESIGN AND TO THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING WITHIN THE CORRIDOR ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE STREET ON THE RFP AND THE MEANS COURT IS

WHERE WE SHOULD BE. >> YES.

>> I AGREE. THE CITY GETS A GOLD STAR OF THINKING ABOUT FUTURE PARKING DATES.

BEFORE WE ABSOLUTELY NEED IT. THIS IS A WAY THAT WE NEED TO OPERATE IN THIS COMMUNITY. I THINK WE HAVE DONE THAT.

AFTER ALL OF THESE GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN THE AREA EVENTUALLY IT WILL CATCH ON LIKE WILDFIRE AND THEN YOU HAVE A

PARKING ISSUE. >> THIS IS A GREAT LOCATION TO EVENTUALLY GO VERTICAL ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

WHICH I AM SURE THIS COMMISSION WILL LOOK AT SOMEDAY.

>> DO YOU NEED AN EMOTION. >> AT THIS POINT WE JUST NEED THE APPROVAL OF THE CONCEPT. WE WILL COME BACK WITH A MORE

SPECIFIC DOLLAR AMOUNT. >> OF THE MURAL AND LANDSCAPING.

SO WHAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU IS THE FOUNDATION.

BUT WERE GOING TO COME BACK WITH SOMETHING AND BRING BACK TO YOU PROBABLY WITH A BID AND A MORE SPECIFIC COST AT A LATER

MEETING. >> IT GREAT.

>> ALL OF THAT. THE SCOOTER STATION.

[f. Approve proposal to demolish the dilapidated structure behind Old St. Anastasia School in the amount of $6,454.00.]

>> THNK YOU. >> NEXT ITEM IS TO APPROVE PROPOSAL TO DEMOLISH THE DILAPIDATED BIT STRUCTURE BEHIND OLD SAINT ANASTASIA SCHOOL IN THE AMOUNT OF $6454.

>> NOW THAT WE HAVE AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MANAGER TO TALK TO US ABOUT THE OLD SAINT ANASTASIA PROPERTY.

AND SPECIFICALLY A STRUCTURE LOCATED TO THE NORTH OF THAT

BUILDING. >> THAT IS RIGHT.

MATT THIS IS A QUICK ITEM BUT AS WE ARE TRANSITIONING FROM THE ARTS WE ARE GOING TO BE PUT IN THIS PROPERTY BACK OUT FOR PROPOSALS IN THE NEAR FUTURE. IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION MORE RECENTLY THAT THIS STRUCTURE, RUN WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT I THINK THE RESTROOMS AT 1.4 FOR THE SCHOOL AND CHURCH IS REALLY AND HIS STATE OF DISREPAIR.

IT IS AN EYESORE. AND COULD POTENTIALLY POSE A SAFETY HAZARD. WE ARE PROPOSING THAT WE DEMOLISH JUST THE SUCCESS DWELLING BACK HERE AND GET THE SITE PRIMED AND READY FOR REDEVELOPMENT SO THAT WHEN WE PUT THE PROPERTY OUT FOR PROPOSALS LISTED IS A NICE CLEAN

OPEN SITE. >> NOTHING IS IN THEIR? NOBODY

USES THAT? >> EXCEPT MAYBE PEOPLE WHO ARE

NOT SUPPOSED TO USE IT? >> AND THE PROPOSAL WAS BY L.E.D. THAT'S WHAT WE USE FOR ALL OF OUR DEMOLITIONS ABOUT

$6500 TO TAKE DOWN. >> ANY POTENTIAL OF THIS BEING A CONTAMINATION OF USE IN THE OLD SYSTEM, WAS THAT A CASE WAS THAT

A BATHROOM AT ONE POINT? >> I CANNOT ANSWER THAT BUT I

KNOW WE HAVE QUALIFIED. >> YES.

[01:25:11]

>> BECAUSE AS I LOOK AT THE ESTIMATES AND SAY THAT'S A LITTLE HIGH. BUT THEN I ALSO WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I ASKED THE QUESTION BECAUSE IF THERE WAS A SITE THAT WAS ONCE USED I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS COVERS.

NO OTHER SURPRISES COMING BACK TO SAY NOW WE NEED 10000 MORE.

VERY WELL. >> MY INITIAL THOUGHT WAS TO COME WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER. AND I WOULD SAVE ABOUT $5000.

>> WHAT WAS THIS BUILDING USED FOR?

>> BATHROOMS. >> THAT'S IT?

>> THAT IS ALL I KNOW OF. >> NORMALLY THIS IS WHERE THEY TAKE CURTIS AND I BY THE EAR AND GO BACK TO THE SHED FOR

MISBEHAVING. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? YOU NEED
