PLEASE COME FORWARD. >> GOOD AFTERNOON, GOOD EVENING, MADAME CHAIR AND MAYOR, COMMISSIONERS.

MY NAME IS ADAM FEDDERMAN AN ATTORNEY WITH FEDDERMAN LAW.

I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF REPRESENT THE IN CUBATE NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER. I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH MY PROJECT AND REPRESENTING THESE FOLKS FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND REMAINED BEHIND THE SCENES AS, WE'VE TRIED TO FARM ARENA THE OPENING OF THE BUILDING AND WORKING WITH CITY INTERESTS IN SO DOING UNFORTUNATELY AT THE LAST TWO MEETINGS OF THIS BOARD THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES MANNER IN WHICH IT IS CHARACTERIZED WAS UNFAVORABLE AND UNFORTUNATE. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS UNACCEPTABLE I COME YOU TODAY WITH THE INTEREST OF MAKE SURING THAT THE PARTIES REMAIN ON THE THAT THE PARTIES CONTINUE TO WORK TOGETHER, BUT ALSO, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

WHEN INC WAS FIRST GRANTED THIS BUILDING FOR A VERY NOMNAL FEE THE BUILDING WAS UNIN HABITABLE. IT HAD NO BUSINESS BEING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. IN THE TIME SINCE.

IT HAS INVESTED $A MILLION INTO THE BUILDING AND WE'RE STILL NOT THERE. ANY LARGE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT WILL HIT DELAYS AND DIFFICULTIES AND CHANGE ORDERS, THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS. THE MOST RECENT STAND STILL, HOWEVER, OVER A ROOF, AIR-CONDITIONING OR HVAC AND MOLD IN THE BUILDING HAS BEEN CHARACTERED AS IF THAT DELAY IS ONLY ON THE PART OF INC IT IS UNFAIR AND UNTRUE.

WE HAVE BEEN AWAITING THE CITY'S ACTION, AS IT RELATES TO THOSE THREE ITEMS SO, THAT OUR ITEMS CAN THEN BE COMPLETED IF WE DO NOT HAVE A FINAL FRAME IN WHICH THESTY WILL PROVIDE THOSE THREE ITEMS, WE CANNOT PROVIDE TIME FRAMES AS TO WHEN WE WILL COMPLETE OTHERS. INC REMAINS COMMITTED TO GETTING THIS BUILDING OPEN, WORKING WITH THE CITY AND CITY STAFF TO DO SO. AND INSURING IT IS SAFE AND SECURE, AND HONORING ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LEASE.

WE STAND READY TO RENEGOTIATE TERMS OF THE LEASE F IT IS DESIRABLE TO THE PARTIES. BUT WE WILL NOT ACCEPT THE IDEAS THAT THE LEASE SHOULD BE TERMINATED AND INC SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE BUILDING, BECAUSE IT IS NOT ANYWHERE APPROPRIATE IN THE SPIRIT OF WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMUNITY THAT DESERVES THIS BUILDING AND ABOUT, THIS PROGRAM TO BE OPEN CITY MANAGER HAS REQUESTED ANOTHER MEETING WITH THE PARTIES WHO WILL SCHEDULE THAT IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

I ALSO ASK THIS. WE REQUESTED MEETINGS WITH ALL OF THE COMMISSIONERS I ASK OF THE THREE NOT WILLING TO MEET WITH US. POLICE SIT DOWN SO WE CAN SPEAK WITH YOU IN GREATER DETAIL. YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID OF A

LAWYER I DON'T BARK. >> YOUR TIME IS UP, BUT THANK

YOU VERY MUCH. >> ANYONE ELSE WISHING TO ADDRESS THE COMMISSION, PLEASE COME FORWARD?

>> ANYONE ELSE? OKAY, LET'S MOVE ON.

>> PLEASE COME FORWARD. COME FORWARD TO THE MIC POLICE.

[00:05:04]

>> I'M NEW TO THIS. >> THAT'S OKAY.

>> I'M PRETTY MUCH IGNORANT. >> IT IS ALL RIGHT.

>> THIS IS MY FIRST TIME BEING HERE.

>> STATE YOUR NAME FOR US. >> WHAT'S YOUR ADDRESS?

>> I AM IN THE CITY OF PORT ST. LUCY.

>> YOU MAY PROCEED. YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES.

SHE'S GOING TO GIVE YOU A 10 SECOND WARNING.

>> I WAS A SCHOOLTEACHER I WAS INTERESTED IN THE WEEMS COURT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO SPEAK WITH AND GET AHOLD OF MR. BROD RICK, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WAS CAN BE

COMMISSIONER GAINS. COMMISSIONER JOHNSON.

COMMISSIONER BROD RICK. >> MADAME CHAIR, BEFORE WE FINISH THE VOTE, EXCUSE ME, ARE YOU GOOD?

GO AHEAD I APOLOGIZE. >> NO PROBLEM, I THINK I ASKED ABOUT THAT EARLIER BUT YOU'RE PROBABLY GOING TO ASK.

[A. Approval of expenditure for an Increase of $25,349.50 in the Purchase Order (PO 260135) Amount for the Completion of Improvements to the JC Penney Parking Lot.]

>> CHAIRWOMAN HUDSON. >> YES, NEXT IS 7A,.

>> APPROVAL OF EXPENDITURE FOR INCREASE OF $25,350 IN THE PURCHASE ORDER PO6 FOR THE AMOUNT OF COMPLETION TO THE JC

PENNEY PARKING LOT. >> I WOULD LIKE TO GET DETAILS ON WHAT WE'RE DOING FOR THIS $25,000.

>> ALL RIGHT OUR ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT.

WE HAVE SOME RADIUS ISSUES. >> MADAME MAYOR, COMMISSIONERS.

YEAH, THIS IS A TWO-PART ISSUE. THE FIRST PART IS THE CURBING.

HOW IT WAS DESIGNED AND INITIALLY THE TRASH TRUCKS CAN'T GET TO THE DUMPSTER SAFELY. SO BASED OFF OF A CONVERSATIONS WE HAD WITH SOLID WASTE THEY ASK IT THAT WE MODIFY THE CURB TO ALLOW THE TRASH TRUCKS TO SAFELY ACCESS THE DUMPSTERS THAT'S ONE THING. THE OTHER ONE IS, DURING THE DESIGN OF THE DUMPSTERS AND THE LOCATION, THEY GOT MODIFIED TO SOME DEGREE SO, THE GATES HAD TO CHANGE A LITTLE BIT.

SO, THEY GOT A LITTLE BIGGER. THEY DIDN'T PREVIOUSLY ORDER THE GATES. IT IS JUST A CHANGE TO WHAT WE ARE ORIGINALLY GOING TO DO. THOSE ARE THE TWO, MAIN THINGS.

BUT WORK IS, SHOULD BE DONE PRETTY QUICKLY, AFTER THIS IS APPROVED AND WE'LL BE DONE WITH THAT ONE.

>> GOOD. JUST WANTED CLARIFICATION.

>> I JUST HAVE A QUESTION. ACTUALLY A STATEMENT.

I'M NOT POINTING FINGER. I'M JUST SAYING IN THE FUTURE SOMEONE NEEDS TO THINK ABOUT THAT AHEAD OF TIME.

YOU'RE NEW. I DON'T KNOW WHO DID IT.

I'M NOT GOING TO SAY ANYTHING. IT IS JUST THAT, I HOPE WHATEVER HAPPENED IS GOING TO BE REMEDIED IN THE FUTURE.

>> YES, MAAM. >> WERE THOSE DRAWN INTERNALLY?

>> INTERNAL. >> NOT LOOKING TO HOLD ANYONE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, LIKE AN OUTSIDE COMPANY.

>> IT WASN'T AN OUTSIDE COMPANY. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ALL RIGHT YOU WANT TO MAKE A MOTION FOR THAT ITEM.

>> MOVE APPROVAL OF ITEM A. >> A MISSION AND SECOND.

CALL THE ROLL PLEASE. COMMISSIONER JOHNSON.

>> COMMISSIONER BROD RICK. >> YES.

COMMISSIONER ZEDSKY. COMMISSIONER BEGINS, AND

>> NEXT IS A RESOLUTION 261 IS THE RESOLUTION OF THE FORT PEER REDEVELOPMENT THE SPECIAL DISTRICT OF THE FORT PIERCE RECEIVING AND ACCEPTING THE MASTER PLAN WITH NO IMLYTATION.

PROVIDING A PEELING RESOLUTION AND HERE WITH AND PROVIDING AN

EFFECTIVE DATE. >> MR. COMES.

>> YES, TO SPEAK ON IT. >> YES.

CHEYENNE HARNESS DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY BE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. MADAME CHAIR, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. OUR CONSULTANT IS IN ROUT.

HE IS NOT HERE YET. WE HAVE ONE MEMBER OF THE

ARCHITECT TEAM, WHO IS HERE. >> SOMEONE JUST CAME IN, IS THAT

THE PERSON? >> THAT'S SO GREAT.

>> WAS TIMING. >> WORK ON THAT ENTRANCE.

>> YEAH, HE UP STAGED YOU COMMISSION BEGINS.

>> FORGET EVERYTHING I SAID. THEY WORKED ON THE OLD MASTER

[00:10:12]

PLAN. THE BUILDING WAS PREVIOUSLY LEASED TO A NON-PROFIT AGENCY. THE LEASE WAS TERMINATED WE DISCUSSED POSSIBLY PUTTING THAT PROPERTY BACK OUT FOR R F PS, BEFORE WE DID SO. WE WANTED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE COMMUNITY WANTED TO SEE, ONLY FROM THE BUILDING, BUT ALSO THE SURROUNDING THREE ACRES. WE HIRED CAUGHTLAND HEARING AND DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB WITH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT.

I THINK YOU WILL BE PLESSED WITH THE MASTER PLAN.

I PRESENTED IT TO YOU INDIVIDUALLY NOW IT IS FINALIZED BASE ON YOUR AND THE COMMUNITY FEEDBACK.

I WILL HAND TO BE OVER TO ERIN. I HAVE A GRAY SCREEN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TONIGHT.

OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THE FINISHED PRODUCT OF THE ST. AN STAYS YAW PLAN OF THE ADAPTIVE RE-USE AND BRIAN OF RG ARCHITECTS THEY HAVE A LONGSTANDING HISTORY ON THE SITE. THEY FOCUSED ON THE ARCHITECTURAL ASPECTS OF THE BUILDING ITSELF AND THEN, A COUPLE OF OUR SUBCONSULTANTS FOCUSED ON THE SITE.

WE PUT TOGETHER THE FINAL GUIDELINES THAT WAS SENT OUT TO YOU HOPEFULLY AND HAD A CHANCE TO REVIEW AND TAKE A LOOK AT THAT. AGAIN, THE PROJECT TEAM, WE WERE THE PRIME CONSULTANTS ON THE PROJECT, THIS PROJECT WAS RUN THROUGH THE CONTINUING SERVICES RFP WE WERE ONE OF THE ACONSULTANT R F Y2024-005 AND WE BROW REG ARC,TECTS AND IN INGENUITY GROUP ON FIELD FOR DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF THE PROJECT. THE PROCESS IT WAS AMULET-STEP PROJECT STARTING WITH THE INITIAL SITE SURVEY, AS WELL AS THE BUILDING INITIAL FIELD INVESTIGATIONS.

WE WENT THROUGH A PRETTY IN-DEPTH AND LONG-COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROCESS THAT INCLUDED AN ON-LINE PUBLIC OUTREACH SURVEY. IT WAS QUITE LONG, BUT WE APPRECIATED ALL OF THE FEEDBACK THAT WE GOT FROM THE COMMUNITY, AS WELL AS I KNOW A LOT OF THE COMMISSIONERS TOOK IT AS WELL.

AND PROCEEDING INTO STAKE HOLDER INTERVIEWS WE MET WITH ALL OF THE AVAILABLE MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS, AS WELL AS SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY.

THAT, THEN TOOK US INTO THE ADAPTIVE RE-USE AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION. BRIAN WILL HIT ON THAT A LITTLE LATER IN THE PRESENTATION. AS WELL AS AMYL-PHASED CONCEPTUAL MASTER PLANNING. INTO THE FINAL MASTER PLAN.

WE ALSO HAD CURBMAN WAKEFIELD ON BOARD FOR A FEESIBLITY STUDY LOOKING AT MARKET TRENDS, RENTS FEASIBILITY OF THE PROJECT ITSELF. HITTING ON THE PROJECT AND GIVING YOU AN OVERVIEW OF THE PROCESS, AGAIN, WE DID OBTAIN AND PREPARE A FULL SITE SURVEY IT.

WAS PREPARED BY IN NEWT AT THIS INGENUITY GROUP AND A SITE INVESTIGATION, A FEW PHOTOS OF THE SITE.

EVERYONE, I'M SURE IS AWARE OF IT.

WE ALSO HAVE SOME REALLY, GREAT EYE-OPENING PHOTOS OF THE INTERIOR OF THE BUILDING, FOR ANYONE WHO HAS NOT BEEN INSIDE.

THAT'S LATER IN THE PRESENTATION.

THE SITE IS LOCATED AT 910 ORANGE AVENUE, RIGHT OFF OF THE MAIN STRIP IN THE PEACOCK ARTS DISTRICT.

JUST WEST OF THE DOWNTOWN A LITTLE DOWN THE ROAD FROM HERE.

SO, AS I MENTIONED THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROCESS WE REALLY WANTED TO MAKE THIS A COMMUNITY-DRIVEN PROCESS.

WE WANTED SOMETHING THAT REFLECTED FORT PIERCE AND THE PREFERENCES OF THE COMMISSIONERS, THE MAYOR, AS WELL AS THE FORT PIERCE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY.

WE DID COLLECT A LOT OF INPUT FROM THE ON-LINE SURVEYS AND THE STAKE HOLDERS INTERVIEWS AND THE COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS AND DIRECT

[00:15:06]

ENGAGEMENT WITH THE BUSINESS OWNERS.

THE COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION REALLY HELPED IDENTIFY THE PRIORITIES OF THE PROJECT, AS WELL AS DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE DESIRED OUTCOME. IT VERY MUCH DIRECTLY INFLUENCED THE OUTCOME OF THE MASTER PLANS, BOTH EARLY ON, AS WELL AS THE FINAL REFINED CONCEPT. AND I'LL HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THAT PROCESS AND DATA. SO, KIND OF PROUD THE INITIAL ON-LINE SURVEY WE PUT OUT OBTAINED OVER 450 RESPONSES FROM THE ELECTRICAL RESIDENTS IN THE DIFFERENT'S OLOCAL RESIDENTS AND THE DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN THE AREA.

OUR SINGULAR MOST SUCCESSFUL SURVEY WE HAVE EVER PUT OUT FOR ANY PROJECT. I REALLY COMMEND FORT PIERCE FOR STEPPING UP AND SPEAKING OUT IT. GAVE US A GREAT FOUNDATION TO BUILD THIS PROJECT OFF OF. REALLY APPRECIATE THE FEEDBACK OF THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS. YOU'RE ALWAYS A LITTLE NERVOUS WHAT YOU GET, BUT IT WAS VERY CONSTRUCTIVE IT.

WAS VERY WELL THOUGHT THROUGH FROM EVERYONE'S POINT.

AGAIN, THANK YOU. HIGHLIGHTING JUST A COUPLE OF POINTS. 77 PERCENT OF THE RESPONSES DID COME FROM ACTUALLY FORT PIERCE RESIDENTS THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS WE ASKED. WHERE THEY RESIDED, ZIP CODES, AND WHAT WE GOT BACK. IT IS HEAVILY FOCUSED ON FORT PIERCE, WITH VERY LITTLE OUTSIDE INFLUENCE.

YOU KNOW, AGAIN A COUPLE OF THE TOP POINTS THAT WERE HIGHLIGHTED FROM THAT SURVEY THE COMMUNITY REALLY WANTED COMMUNITY GATHERING SPACES, EVENT SPACES ARTS AND CULTURAL PROGRAMMING, AS WELL AS OPPORTUNITIES FOR LOCAL VENDORS OUTDOOR DINING OR OTHER SOCIAL SPACES. AND LEANING INTO THE PEACOCK ARTS DISTRICT, THE PUBLIC ARTS, AS WELL AS SOME PARK BOTICAL ECOLOGICAL FEATURES IT INFLUENCE THE INITIAL MASTER PLANS.

AGAIN, JUST HIGHLIGHTING A FEW OF THE DIFFERENT DATA.

LOOKING AT THE DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS YOU KNOW THAT IS WHAT WE WERE HIGHLIGHTING THERE. THE STAKE HOLDER INTERVIEWS WERE HELD NEXT, AFTER THE SURVEY CLOSED.

WE DID MEET WITH ALL OF THE COMMISSIONERS, AS WELL AS THE MAYOR INDIVIDUALLY. GOT GREAT FEEDBACK AND GREAT HISTORY OF FORT PIERCE AND ALSO YOUR VISION FOR THE SITE.

AND THE TOWN, AS A WHOLE OR THE CITY AS A WHOLE.

AGAIN, SOME OF THE POINTS TO HIGHLIGHT THAT IS THE DIFFERENT PRIORITY ITEMS THAT CAME OUT OF THOSE DISCUSSIONS.

YOU KNOW A LOT OF IT ACTUALLY MIRRORED WHAT THE COMMUNITY WANTED, AS WELL. AGAIN, VERY IN TOUCH WITH FORT PIERCE AND WHAT YOUR RESIDENTS ARE LOOKING FOR.

AGAIN, JUST A QUICK EXCERPT. JUST HIGHLIGHTING QUICKLY THE THREE, DIFFERENT MASTER PLANS PUT OUT. WE DID GENERATE THREE, VERY UNIQUE CONCEPTS SPANNING VARIOUS LEVELS OF PARK DEVELOPMENT. WITH LESS COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ALL THE WAY UP TO A VERSION WITH A VENDOR HALL-TYPE DEVELOPMENT.

THE COMMUNITY OPEN HOUSE, ALL THREE OF THOSE CONCEPTS WERE PRESENTED, ALONG WITH RENDERINGS AND DIFFERENT VISUALIZATIONS OF WHAT THE SITES COULD LOOK LIKE. WE DID GET GREAT FEEDBACK.

WE ENDED UP HAVING AROUND 40 RESIDENTS STOP BY, AND PROVIDE FEEDBACK. WE DID MAKE IT A VERY INTERACTIVE PROCESS. AGAIN, TRYING TO ENGAGE, AND GET COMMUNITY EXCITED ABOUT THE PROCESS AND THE PROJECT.

WE DID CREATE A KIND OF A VOTING SYSTEM.

SO, WE HAD A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES VOTING FOR THEIR FAVORITE CONCEPTS, AS WELL AS THEIR FAVORITE ALMOSTS WITHIN THOSE CONCEPTS. WE REALLY WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE DIFFERENT FEATURES OF ALL THREE.

TO GIVE THE COMMUNITY OPPORTUNITY TO WEIGH IN ON EACH OF THOSE. SO, WHEN YOU'RE REFINDING THE MASTER PLAN DOWN TO ITS FINAL VERSION, THAT BECOMES VERY HELPFUL DATA. BECAUSE, WHILE ONE CONCEPT WAS THE KIND OF THE LEADER IN THE COMMUNITY PREFERENCE, THERE ARE CERTAIN ELEMENTS THAT WERE VERY POPULAR WITH THE OTHER ONES THAT WE WANTED TO INCORPORATE. AGAIN, JUST HIGHLIGHTING SOME OF THAT DATA FROM THE VOTING. AND CONCEPT 3 ENDED UP BEING THE FRONT-RUNNER. IT DID HAVE OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE FEEDBACK, WITH VERY LITTLE AGAINST.

BUT, AS YOU CAN SEE, GENERALLY THE COMMUNITY WAS IN FAVOR WITH ALL THREE. THEY DID ELEMENTS AND ELEMENTS OF ALL OF THEM. SO AGAIN, WHAT DID WE TAKE AWAY?

[00:20:03]

OBVIOUSLY PRESERVING THE ST. ANASTASIA BUILDING THE HISTORY AND THE CULTURE TIED UP IN THAT.

WHAT IT MEANS TO THE CITY AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE LOCAL COMMUNITY HOW TO CONTRIBUTES TO THE FACTOR OF THE FABRIC OF THE AREA. AGAIN, THEY REALLY WANTED TO FOCUS ON EXPANDING THE ARTS AND CULTURAL ASPECT OF IT.

CREATING THOSE OUTDOOR EVENTS SPACES ORDAIN EVENTS SPACE AS WELL. ACTIVATING ORANGE AVENUE BECAME A LEADING DISCUSSION. AS WELL AS CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE LOCAL VENDORS AND ENTREPRENEURS AGAIN, TWO ITEMS THAT BECAME A THEME. THEY DID WANT TO IMPROVE WALKABILITY AND CONNECTIVITY TO DOWNTOWN.

SAFETY, AND I HAVESIBLITY OF THE SITE, AND ANY OF THE USES WAS FOREFRONT IN EVERYONE'S CONVERSATION.

AGAIN, PROVIDING SOME GREAT GATHERING AREAS AND EVERY DAY PUBLIC USE WAS IMPORTANT. JUST SO THE SITE REMAINS A PART OF FORT PIERCE AND AVAILABLE TO THE RESIDENTS.

THEY KIND OF WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT DIDN'T FALL INTO PRIVATE DEVELOPER HANDS OR PRIVATE USE. AGAIN A COUPLE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS HERE IS THE FINAL MASTER PLAN. TAKING THE CONCEPT 3 AND DISTILLING IT INTO ITS FINISHED FRM.

WE'LL BLOW UP SOME OF THE AREAS, AS WE GO. AGAIN, IT IS JUST THE REFINED VERSION OF THAT CONCEPT 3.

ADDING IN SOME OF THE OTHER ELEMENTS FROM THE CONCEPT A, CONCEPT B THAT WERE NOT ULTIMATELY SELECTED.

YOU CAN SEE IN THE LOWER LEFT-HAND SIDE THE ST. ANASTASIA BUILDING WITH THE EXPANSION BRIAN WILL GET INTO THAT IN A LITTLE MORE DETAIL LATER A LITTLE EXPANDED VIEW.

YOU CAN SEE THE SITE DEVELOPMENT AROUND THE BUILDING, WITH THE PROPOSED EXPANSION AS WELL AS SOME OF THE ENTRY FEATURES INTO THE SITE. A FEW IMAGES FOR DIFFERENT CHARACTER AND MATERIAL POSSIBILITIES.

HAND RENDERING OF THE ELEVATION OF WHAT IT COULD LOOK LIKE IN 3-D FORM ONE OF THE MATE FEATURES IS THE PEACOCK DISTRICT VENDOR HALL. A MULTIPLE-VENDOR FAST ANALYSIS, SORT OF SIMILAR, TO THE CONCEPT OF LIKE AN EATLEY OR A SMALL VENDOR ANCHORED BY A COUPLE OF LARGER TENANTS IN THIS CASE WE HAVE A FEW RESTAURANTS PROGRAMMED.

ONE BEING ROOFTOP BEER GARDEN ON THE TOP COMBINED WITH A RESTAURANT ON THE BOTTOM. WE WANTED TO FOCUS ON THE ORANGE AVENUE AND WALKABLE, OPEN, INVITING ALMOST PLAZAING, PARK-LIKE FEEL IN THE FRONT. WE THOUGHT IT WAS A GREAT IDEAS TO PROVIDE A SMALL COFFEE SHOP OR GRAB AND GO SANDWICH SHOP IN THE FRONT. PROVIDING GREAT VISIBILITY.

AGAIN, IT WAS PRIMARY CONCERN PULLING THAT BUILDING OFF OF ORANGE AVENUE A LITTLE BIT HELPS TO ACTIVATE AND PROVIDE MORE VISIBILITY TO SOME OF THE PUBLIC USES.

AGAIN, A COUPLE OF IMAGES OF WHAT THOSE COULD LOOK LIKE.

AND THE 3-D RENDERING, HAND RENDERING OF WAS THAT COULD BE.

AND THEN IN BEHIND IT. WE DID WANT TO CREATE A LITTLE PARK-LIKE EVENT. AND PROMENADE AREA ONE OF THE MAIN FEATURES BEING A SEMI--PERMANENT FOOT TRUCK OPTION, FOR LOCAL DINING. COULD BE EVENING DINING WEEKEND DINING THIS IS BECOMING A VERY POPULAR CONCEPT.

THERE'S A BUNCH OF THEM IN ORLANDO.

IT GIVES YOU A LOT OF GREAT OPTIONS FOR GOING OUT AND TRYING DIFFERENT TYPES OF FOOD. NOT STUCK WITH ONE, TYPE OF VARIETY THE FAMILY CAN TRY A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT THINGS.

DOWN CLOSER TO OLD ST. AN STAYS YAW YOU HAVE THE OPEN LAWN SPACE IT. DOES GIVE YOU OPPORTUNITY TO DO UNCOVERED EVENTS, AS WELL AS A TWO-STOREY OPEN EVENT SPACE THAT IS COVERED. ACCOUNTING FOR ALL, DIFFERENT

[00:25:05]

TYPES OF WEATHER. AND A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT IMAGE WHAT'S THAT COULD LOOK LIKE. AS WELL AS RENDERING OF THE OUTDOOR DINING. OUTSIDE OF THE RESTAURANT, UNDERNEATH THAT TWO-STOREY COVERED AREA.

SOME GREAT ELEVATED SEATING, WHERE PEOPLE CAN LOOK OUT OVER THE GARDENS. YOU START TO SEE THE FOOD TRUCKS AND THE FOOD TRUCK PROMENADE IN THE BACK THERE.

THAT DOES TIE INTO THE PARKING. SO A COUPLE OF IDEAS.

AGAIN, LOOKING AT PHASING OF SITE THAT WAS A CONSIDERATION.

SOME OF THE FEEDBACK THROUGH THE STAKE HOLDER INTERVIEW PROCESS, AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY OPEN HOUSE, THERE WAS INTEREST IN PROVIDING A PARKING GARAGE ON THE SITE, TO SERVICE THE PEACOCK ARTS DISTRICT, SPECIFICALLY. SOME OF THE BUSINESS OWNERS WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF PARKING THAT'S AVAILABLE TO THE SHOPS. IT IS VERY LIMITED THE ON STREET PARALLEL PARKING. SO, IT WAS DISCUSSED THAT IT COULD BE, YOU KNOW AN OPTION IN A NICE FEATURE TO PROVIDE A PARKING GARAGE ON THE SITE. WE HAVE THAT SHOWN.

INITIALLY IT WOULD BE PROGRAMMED FOR SURFACE PARKING.

THAT'S WHAT YOU SEE ON THE LEFT. WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND INTO INTO A PARKING GARAGE. THE PARKING GARAGE DOES BRING ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE MORE VENDOR STALLS OR DIFFERENT COMMERCIAL SPACE. TURNING IT INTO A MIXED USE BUILDING. ADDITIONALLY WITH THE PHASING, THE VENDOR HALL ITSELF COULD POTENTIALLY BE PHASED AS WELL.

THAT WOULD PROVIDE OPPORTUNITY FORT PIERCE TO PRIORITIZE THE REHAB AND REVITTATION OF THE OLD ST. AN STAYS ANASTASIA BUILDING, AND SOME OF THE PARK IMPROVEMENTS AND THE VEHICLOR HALL COULD BE IMPROVED AND BUILT ON THE SITE THAT IS NOTED UNDER THE PHASING. AGAIN, A FINAL RENDERING OF THE SITE, THE TWO-STOREY STOREY CANOPY PROVIDING THAT SHELLERRED OUT OUTDOOR SEATING. GIVES SOME GREAT OPPORTUNITIES IN ALL TYPES OF FLORIDA WEATHER, AS WELL AS SOME SHADE.

THE UNCOVERED EVENT WITH THE OSA.

AND FOOD TRUCK PROVIDING DINING OPTIONS.

THE PARKING THROUGHOUT THE SITE RESPONDED TO SOME OF THE COMMUNITIES FEEDBACK ABOUT MOVING SOME OF THE MORE ACTIVE USES AWAY FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES.

SOME OF THE EARLY CONCEPTS WE HAD SOME AMPLY THEATERS AND THINGS AGAINST THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY AND THE RESIDENTS WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE NOISE. SO, IN THIS CASE, WE START TO MOVE THAT AWAY. WE DID NOT HAVE A SPECIFIC AMPLY THEATER AT THIS LOCATION BUT ONE OF THE GREAT OPPORTUNITIES THAT THE COVERED SEATING PROVIDES, YOU COULD DO SPORTING EVENTS OR HAVE A, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT IN THIS VIEW.

HAVE AN OUTDOOR BAND STAND UNDER THAT CANOPY.

UP AGAINST THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, WHERE IT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE FITTING FOR THE NOISE AND THE ACTIVITY.

I DID WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT THAT WAS THE REASON FOR SOME OF THE ADDITIONAL PARKING A LONG THE BACK OF THAT SITE. THEN, WE DID GET INTO THE ACTUALLY PROGRAM OF THE BUILDING ITSELF.

BRYAN AND HIS TEAM WENT THROUGH AND STARTED HIGHLIGHTING SOME OF THE DIFFERENT USES. IT IS A LITTLE BIT SMALL TO SEE.

HOPEFULLY YOU CAN TAKE TIME TO GO THROUGH IT A LITTLE MORE DETAIL IN THE BOOKLET. AND BRYAN LES GET INTO SOME OF OUR THOUGHTS ON THAT, AS WELL. BUT AGAIN, THE MAIN FEATURE TO HIGHLIGHT THAT AND WE HAVE SOME GREAT IMAGES FOR YOU.

THE REQUIRED ADDITION. SO THE ONE THING THAT WE DID NEED TO DO, IS BRING IT UP TO CODE COMPLIANCE FOR ANY OF THE USES. AND THE EASIEST WAY TO DO THAT WITH THE THE LEAST AMOUNT OF IMPACT TO THE HISTORIC BUILDING WAS TO PROVIDE THIS ADDITION. SO THAT PROVIDES YOUR ADA-ACCESSIBLE ELEVATORS TO EACH OF THE FLOORS AS WELL AS, THE BATHROOMS THAT THE BUILDING IS CURRENTLY LACKING.

AGAIN, FOR THE VENDOR HALL ITSELF, WE DID GO AHEAD AND PROVIDE A SCHEMEATIC PROGRAMMING.

BRYAN AND HIS TEAM OF ARCHITECTS WERE GREAT AT HELPING US WITH THAT WITH SOME OF THE DIFFERENT SIZES OF SMALL VENDOR HALLS.

AS WELL AS SOME OF THE ANCHOR USES.

WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE WE GET SOME ANCHOR TENANTS INTO THIS DEVELOPMENT, IN ORDER TO ATTRACT SOME OF THE SMALLER LOCAL,

[00:30:01]

ENTREPRENEURS. ONE OF THE FEATURES OR I GUESS TWO-STOREY OF THE FEATURES THAT VENDOR HALL.

ONE IS THE ROOFTOP BEER GARDEN AND BAR.

PROVIDING A REALLY, GREAT VIEW OUT OVER THE SITE ITSELF.

AS WELL AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR AN OFFICE SPACE, AS A PART OF THAT DEVELOPMENT. THAT COULD EITHER BECOME A FLEX WORK SPACE, A CO-WORKING SPACE OR IF COULD BECOME OFFICE SPACE, IF THE CITY CHOSE TO LEASE THE ENTIRE BUILDING TO ONE OF THOSE VENDOR HALL-TYPE TENANTS THAT WOULD THEN TAKE CARE OF ALL OF THE LEASING AND THE OPERATIONAL ASPECTS OF IT.

THAT COULD BECOME A LOCAL OFFICE FOR THEM.

AGAIN, JUST HIGHLIGHTING THE GREAT BUILDING AND THE GREAT FEATURE OF THE SITE. OSA DOES ANCHOR THE BUILDING.

WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WAS STILL VERY PROMINENT ON THE SITE REGARDLESS. AGAIN, ONE OF THE DESIGN REASONS FOR PULLING BACK THAT VENDOR HALL, SO IT SITS AS A SECONDARY CONCERN TO OUR GREAT, HISTORICAL ICON HERE.

AND THEN, GETTING INTO MORE OF THE ADAPTIVE HISTORICAL PRESERVATION AND BRYAN CAN TAKE YOU THROUGH SOME OF THOSE

ASPECTS OF THE PROJECT >> OKAY.

GOOD EVENING. I'M BRIAN WITH REG ARCHITECTS.

THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT OUR VISION FOR THE ST. ANASTASIA ADAPTIVE RE-USE PROJECT.

BUILT IN 19 14678 IT IS ONE OF THE FORT PIERCE MOST HISTORIC LANDMARKS FOLLOWING THE SUCCESSFUL EXETERATIONS IT TAKES THE NEXT STEP BRINGING THE BUILDING BACK INTO ACTIVE COMMUNITY USE. OUR GOAL IS TO PRESERVE ITS HISTORICAL CHARACTER WHILE GIVING SUSTAINABLE FUNCTIONAL PROGRAM OF GALLERY SPACES, CLASSROOMS, TECHNOLOGY, MEDIA SPACES RENTAL SPACES INCUBATOR AND FLEXIBILITY AUDITORIUM FOR CULTURAL GATHERING. ACCESSIBILITY IS THE CENTRAL TO THIS EFFORT. THE BUILDING PREDATES MODERN STANDARDS. IT RELIES ON STAIRS TO REACH ITS UPPER LEVELS. LEAVING MUCH OF IT IN ACCESSIBLE, RATHER THAN ENCERTIFICATING THE ELEVATOR THE ACCESSIBLE RESTROOMS INTO THE HISTORIC STRUCTURES, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE DEMOLITION OF HISTORIC MATERIALS WE PLACED THESE IMPROVEMENTS IN COMPATIBLE CONSISTENT WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR STANDARDS. IT IS A PREVATION TOOL AND ACHIEVED ADA ACCESSIBILITY WITHOUT COMPROMISING FEATURES THAT MAKE THE BUILDING SIGNIFICANT BY DESEEN IT REMAINS ON BOARDANT TO THE ORIGINAL, AS A CONTEMPORARY INTERVENTION.

THE HISTORIC BUILDING STAYS AS THE FOCAL POINT.

YOU HAVE THAT SECONDARY BUILDING OFF SET PUSH BACK.

AND IT BECOMES SECONDARY TO THE MAIN, HISTORIC STRUCTURES, PART OF THE HISTORIC STANDARDS. IT IS PART OF THE REHABILITATION THAT IT FITS INTO. THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT IS SIGNIFICANT. WE TRANSFORM A VACANT LANDMARK INTO A VIBRANT DESTINATION. SUPPORTING EDUCATION, ARTS AND CULTURE. IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP.

THE PUBLIC GATHERING CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESIDENTS, STUDENTS AND ARTISTS AND LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS WHILE INSURING LONG-TERM STEWARDSHIP. THIS PROJECT IS PRESERVING HISTORY THROUGH USE. WE BELIEVE A STRIKES A THOUGHTFUL BALANCE BETWEEN PRESERVATION, ACCESSIBILITY AND PRESERVATION AND RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR SUPPORT.

WHAT WE HAVE IS THE EXISTING YOU'RE SEEING ON THESE SLIDES.

THEN YOU HAVE ALL OF THE EXISTING CONDITIONS, WHICH WILL MAKE A SITE VISIT. WE WALKED THROUGH AND TOOK PHOTOGRAPHS AND DOOMED I WAS WITH TLC WHO DID A COMPREHENSIVE ACCESS AND CONFIRMED THE HISTORIC STRUCTURES, AND IS FUNDAMENTALLY SOUND AND SUITABLE FOR REHABILITATION.

WHILE IDENTIFYING NEEDED MODERNIZATION THE BUILDING CONSISTS OF MASONRY WALL, CONCROAT SLAPS, STEELE FRAMING AND STEELE TRUSSES. LOCAL LICENSED CRACKING WATER IN POLLUTION AND DETERIORATED WOOD AND SURFACE CORROSION ARE ALL REPAIRABLE, THROUGH TARGETED MEASURES, MASSRY REPAIRS, WOOD AND CONCRETE WATERPROOFING THAT WAS ON THEIR ASSESSMENT REPORT, WHICH YOU PROBABLY HAVE A COPY OF.

THEY DID THE STRUCTURAL AND THE NAP AND ASSESSED THE EXISTING CONDITIONS. THE SIGNIFICANT INFRASTRUCTURE IS REQUIRED DECADE OLD ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION, PLUMBING SYSTEMS AND FIXTURES WILL NEED FULL REPLACEMENT TO, MEET CODE AND SUPPORT PUBLIC USE.

MECHANICAL WORK INCLUDES NEW ENERGY-EFFICIENT HVAC UPGRADED CONTROLS IMPROVED BE VENTRATION, LOOTER AND AUDIO VISUAL FOR PROGRAMMING FOR ALL OF THE INCUBATOR SPACES WE'RE PROPOSING

[00:35:04]

AND CLASSROOMS, AND ART GALLERIES THAT WOULD ALL REQUIRE THAT. THE LIFE SAFETY UPGRADES ARE EQUALLY CRITICAL THE BUILDING LACKS MODERN FIRE ALARM AND PROTECTION SYSTEM. NEW FIRE ALARM, EMERGENCY LIGHTING ANDS EXIT SIGNAGE WILL BE ADDED, WHILE RESPECTING ITS HISTORICAL CHARACTER. THESE IMPROVEMENTS ADDRESS DEFERRED MAINTENANCE AND PRESERVE HISTORICAL FABRIC CREATING A PATHWAY TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY IN ANOTHER CENTURY.

SO THESE ARE MORE OF THE PHOTOS WE TOOK THAT DAY FROM THE SITE VISIT. HERE'S THE ROOF PLAN AND THE PROPOSED ADDITION, WHICH HAS AA DA RESTROOMS, WHICH THE MAIN BUILDING DOESN'T HAVE WE HAVE TO BRING THAT UP TO CODE. THERE'S ANOTHER MEANS OF EGRESS, WE NEED TWO-STOREY MEANS OF EGRESS TO MEET CODE.

WE HAVE AN ELEVATOR AND STAIR AND ADA ACCESSIBLE EVERY FLOOR HAS RESTROOMS AND ACCESS TO THE ELEVATOR AND THE EDUCATE MEANS OF EGRESS. YOU SEE ON THE ELEVATION THESE ARE THE RENDERED ELEVATIONS. THE PROCEEDS POD IS WHITE, BECAUSE THAT'S YOU'RE SEEING A CUT THROUGH.

THAT'S WHY IT IS LIKE THAT. IT IS ACTUALLY IN FRONT OF YOU.

SO, WE TRIED TO RESPECT THE HISTORIC FABRIC, AND THE MATERIALALITY BY PLAYING OFF VARIATIONS OF BRICK, AND STONE.

AND THEN WE WANTED TO HAVE THIS TRANSPARENCY WITH THE CIRCULATION AND THE BRIDGING OF CONNECTING THE NEW ADDITION TO THE HISTORIC 23468 ENVELOPE, THAT'S WHERE YOU SEE THE GLAZED CONDITION THAT WOULD ILLUMINATE AND SEE KIRKLATION.

INTERESTING FROM AN ARCHITECTURAL STAND POINT HERE'S ANOTHER RENDERING TO SEE THE CONNECTION AND THE ACTUALLY SIZE OF IT IN COMPARISON TO THE HISTORIC.

SO, IT IS SET BACK. IT IS A GOOD DESSTANCE FROM THE OTHER MEANS OF EGRESS IN THE REAR.

IT BASICALLY HAS THAT DISTANCE AND UP TO CODE.

HERE'S ANOTHER OF THE CONNECTION OF THE TWO-STOREY.

IT FITS IN WELL THE REHABILITATION OF THE INTERIOR STANDARDS, WHICH ALLOW FOR REHABILITATION.

IT ALLOWS FOR A NEW ADDITION TO BRING THE HISTORIC BUILDING UP TO CODE. SO, IT PRESERVES ITS HISTORICAL CHARACTER, AS WELL AS ADA ACCESSIBILITY.

HERE ARE THE RENOVATIONS AND PROPOSED BUDGET THAT'S SELF ESTIMATE, DEPENDING ON THE SQUARE FOOTAGE.

IT IS BROKEN BY LOW, MEDIUM AND HIGH, AND WAS THE COSTS COULD POTENTIALLY BE. THIS IS ALWAYS ROOM FOR INTERPRETATION, DEPENDING ON WAS GC YOU BRING ON BOARD AND WAS THE MARKET IS DOING AT THAT TIME.

SO IT CAN FLUCTUATE. THE FINAL ASPECT WAS THE FEASIBLE STUDY. UNFORTUNATELY WE DO NOT HAVE ANYONE FROM CURBMAN WAKEFIELD TONIGHT THEY WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

BUT WE DID HIGHLIGHT GENERALLY THE STRUCTURES OF THEIR STUDY.

THEY DID A VERY IN-DEPTH MARKET ANALYSIS, TREND ANALYSIS, AS WELL AS POTENTIALS RENTAL RATE ANALYSIS.

IT DID GIVE THEM A KIND OF A RANGE OF THE PROTECTED RENT PER SQUARE FOOT COULD BE. FOR RETAIL, RESTAURANT, OFFICE AND THEN CIVIC WOULD BE MORE OF THE CITY OF FORT PIERCE PROGRAMMED ELEMENT. THERE WOULD BE NO RENT FOR THAT.

THEIR REPORT HIGHLIGHTED THE GENERAL INFORMATION.

THEY DID A FULL SWAT ANALYSIS IDENTIFYING STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES, AS WELL AS THE OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS.

IT DID HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE DIFFERENT POPULATION, HOUSEHOLD GROWTH. IT DID HIGHLIGHT DIFFERENT ECONOMIC FACTORS, SUCH AS GROWTH IN WAGES AND SALARIES WITHIN THE AREA. AND THEN ALSO, TRENDS, IN-FLOWS AND OUT-FLOWS AS WELL AS DIFFERENT COMMUTING TRENDS FOR THE AREA. THEN THEY DID A FULL, COMPETITIVE INVENTORY ANALYSIS. HIGHLIGHTING A SUPPLY IN DEMAND FOR YOUR RETAIL SPACE. THE RESTAURANT SPACE, AND THERE WERE REALLY NO CO-WORKING OFFICE SPACES IN THE AREA THAT THEY HIGHLIGHTED. EACH OF THOSE DIFFERENT AREAS DID HIGHLIGHT THE GENERAL MARKET RANGES.

THESE ARE SOME SOME ACTUALLY LISTINGS AVAILABLE.

[00:40:03]

THEN THE FULL SUMMARY OF FINDINGS WAS PROVIDED.

THAT'S ABOUT IT. >> ALL RIGHTY BOARD MEMBERS? QUESTIONS? THIS IS QUITE ELABORATE.

>> IT WAS. >> I'VE SEEN THE PRESENTATION, SO I'M PRETTY FAMILIAR WITH IT. THANK YOU, IT IS VERY DETAILED, AND A LOT OF GREAT INFORMATION IN THERE.

I THINK IT IS A GREAT PLAN, AS LONG AS WE'RE NOT SPENDING ANY MONEY ON CONSTRUCTION AT THIS TIME WITH IT.

NICE WORK. YOU GUYS DID A GOOD JOB OF THIS.

>> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR.

>> MADAME MAYOR. I HAVE ONE QUESTION I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT ONE OF MY VISIONS WERE TO USE THE BUILDING. MAYBE I SKIPPED OVER IT AND DIDN'T SEE IT. IS THERE GOING TO BE A PLACE WHERE SOMEONE CAN COME AND USE LIKE HAVE A MEETING? OR IF SOMEONE WANTED TO GET MARRIED AT THE OLD BUILDING FOR THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OR THE HISTORICAL POINT.

WHERE WOULD THAT OCCUR? IS THAT A POSSIBILITY? RIGHT NOW IN FORT PIERCE VENUES ARE VERY LIMITED.

I'M PRETTY SURE THE ONES WE HAVE ON THE WATER ARE ALREADY BOOKED OUT TO 2027. WHEN I TALKED ABOUT THIS I LOOKED AT THE IDEA OF HAVING A HISTORICAL VIEW IN THE BACKGROUND FOR A WEDDING AND ALSO LOCKING AT THE PARK AND EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE GOING ON. TYPICALLY YOU GO TO A WEDDING YOU DO YOUR THING, YOU DRESS UP. THEN YOU GET TIRED ASK WANT TO LISTEN TO THE BAND UNDERNEATH THE OVERHEAD AND HAVE SOME FUN.

I WAS WONDERING WHERE IN THIS PRESENTATION F SOMEONE WANTED TO RENT A SPACE TO HAVE A WEDDING OR GRADUATION CELEBRATION OR SOMETHING, WHERE WOULD THAT FALL INTO THIS BUILDING?

>> YEAH, SO WE DID TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT, BOTH INSIDE THE BUILDING AND OUTSIDE. THE ENTIRE TOP FLOOR, WHICH PREVIOUSLY FUNCTIONED AS A GYM IS A PERFECT EVENT SPACE.

SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WORKED THERE THROUGH WITH SARA AND CHEYENNE. TO MAINTAIN THAT AS A RENTABLE EVENT SPACE AT ALL TIMES FORT PIERCE.

THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST LOCATION.

WE COULD ALSO LOOK AT IT ON THE SECOND FLOOR.

THE THIRD FLOOR DOESN'T REALLY THRONED EVENT OR RENTALS BUT THE SECOND FLOOR COULD FUNCTION AS A FLEX SPACE FOR RECEPTIONS, FOR EXAMPLE. I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE A GREAT VENUE SPACE. BUT THAT TOP FLOOR WOULD BE MAINTAINED FOR THAT. ANY SORT OF EVENT WEDDING, GRADUATION, PARTIES. DIFFERENT CITY EVENTS.

THE OTHER SPACE WOULD BE THIS BACK EVENT AREA.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE CALLING. SOME PEOPLE LOVE GETTING MARRIED INSIDE, WHEN THE WEATHERER IS GREAT.

OTHERS LOVE BEING MARRIED OUTSIDE.

AND I ACTUALLY HELD MY WEDDING IN A VERY SIMILAR SPOT.

SOMETHING LIKE THIS REALLY SPEAKS TO ME.

BUT YOU WOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO USE THE OPEN EVENT LAWN FOR AN OPEN-AIR, OPEN-LAWN WEDDING.

WITH TWO-STOREY DIFFERENT OPTIONS.

YOU COULD SET IT UP WITH THE ALTER OR WITH OAS PROBABLY MOST PEOPLE PREFERENCE HAVING THAT HISTORIC BUILDING.

AS A FALLBACK IS THAT COVERED SPACE COULD FUNCTION AS THAT FALLBACK IN THE INSTANCE OF IN CLIMATE WEATHER.

WE HAD THAT IN DOOR AND OUTDOOR COMBINATION OPTION FOR THE SITE.

>> THANK YOU FOR THAT I'VE READ THROUGH THIS.

AND PEOPLE THAT ARE LISTENING YOU KNOW THEY'RE GETTING EXCITED. OKAY, WE HAVE ANOTHER SPACE TO GO. IT IS ALWAYS GREAT TO HAVE OUTDOOR SPACE, BUT WE DO LIVE IN FLORIDA.

UNLESS YOU PICK THE RIGHT MONTH, IN FLORIDA YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE OUTSIDE IN 100° IN A TUXEDO OR WHATEVER TRYING TO GET WED.

AS LONG AS WE HAVE COVERED THAT, I'M HAPPY WITH IT AND GREAT JOB.

>> THANK YOU. >> MILLION COMMISSIONERS?

>> CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT HAPPEN. >> YEAH AND THE ANCILLARY BUILDING OR THE EXPANSION IS ACTUALLY CONNECTS TO THE

ORIGINAL BUILDING RIGHT? >> YES.

>> THAT'S THE ONLY WAY IT COULD WORK, RIGHT? I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD THAT.

>> YEAH, IT HAS TO BE PART OF THAT BUILDING TO MEET THAT CODE.

[00:45:02]

>> SO THAT'S VERY CREATIVE. I APPRECIATE ALL OF THE HARD WORK AND WHAT YOU PUT INTO THIS. IT IS HARD, IF YOU LIKE ME, WHO IS A NATIVE OF FORT PIERCE AND GREW UP.

THAT WAS ONCE THREE DIFFERENT BUILDINGS THE RECTORY, AND ALSO THE CHURCH, AND THE SCHOOL, IS THE ONLY THING THAT SURVIVES.

I THINK IT IS VERY CREATIVE. I LIKE A LOT OF THE GREEN SPACE AND THE OPENNESS, BECAUSE THAT'S GOOD FOR FLORIDA.

>> YES, I AGREE. >> AND GOOD HERE IN FLORIDA.

SO ANY OTHER COMMENTS? ANY OTHER COMMENTS? I THINK WE HAVE TO VOTE ON THE RESOLUTION, WHICH IS 2612 ITEM

8A. >> MADAME CHAIR I MOVE APPROVAL

OF ITEM 2612. >> THE MOTION AND SECOND.

TO ACCEPT THE MASTER PLAN, WITH NO IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENT.

SO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. CALL THE ROLL.

[00:50:02]

I KNOW YOU WON'T SAY IT. I'LL TAKE IT AND SAY IT.

WE'RE TRYING TO CHANGE THE WAY FORT PIERCE IS DOING BUSINESS

WE'RE TRYING TO DO IT RIGHT. >> EXACTLY RIGHT.

>> NEED THAT PURCHASING CODE AND WE'RE GOING TO GET IT.

>> COMMISSIONER BROD. >> THAT'S ALL, I JUST WANTED TO

CONFIRM THAT. >> ANYTHING ELSE COMMISSIONERS.

>> YOU HAVE LIVED THROUGH THIS LEASE FOR QUITE SOME TIME.

I HAD TO CATCH UP SO, I APOLOGIZE F THESE QUESTIONS ARE REDUNDANT FOR YOU. HAS THE CURRENT TENANT CAN COMPLIED WITH ALL OF THE MATERIALS TERMS OF THE LEASE I GET SOME INFORMATION FROM THE STREET, AND TC PALM AND HOMETOWN NEWS. I WATCHED SOME OF THE MEETINGS.

THERE'S A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT I NEED ANSWERS TO, TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE'RE GOING FORWARD. WE HAVE TALK ABOUT IT UP HERE SEVERAL TIMES. BEING IN THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS, AND MANAGING LEASES AND SO ON AND SO FORTH HASN'T BEEN OUR FORTE. I JUST WANT TO KEEP GOING BACK OVER THE THINGS THAT WE CONTINUE TO START TO TROY TO CHANGE FOR THE FUTURE. SO THAT WE DO A BETTER JOB WITH

OUR LEASE-HOLDS. >> I CAN ANSWER THAT FIRST, MADAME CHAIR, COMMISSIONER. SO, I'M NEW TO THIS AGREEMENT SO, I CAN'T SPEAK TO ITS INSPIRE SPAN.

IT WAS ACTUALLY ASSIGNED TO THE CURRENT TENANT FROM THE PREVIOUS TENANT I THINK IT WAS IN-- LET ME NOT TRY TO GO THROUGH THE DATES. I PUT THEM IN THE AGENDA ITEM, SO IT IS IN THE RESOLUTION, AS WELL.

SO LATE LAST YEAR, WE DID ISSUE A NOTICE TO THE TENANT OF DEFAULT FOR THE BUILDING PERMIT ISSUES THAT WERE OUTSTANDING.

A NOTICE OF OUTSTANDING BUILDING PERMITS.

>> MET WITH THE TEN, AND HER COUNCIL REGADING THOSE BUILDING PERMITS. THEY HAVE ALL BEEN ADDRESSED EXCEPT FOR ONE WE'RE WAITING ON THE FINAL INSPECTION FOR THE TICKI STRUCTURES. THE ONLY TISHES ISSUES ARE BUILDING PERMITS CURRENTLY BEING RESOLVED.

>> THAT WAS MY NEXT QUESTION WERE THE LEASE DEFAULTS REMAIN UNSOLVED AND THEY ARE. IS THERE A TIME FRAME? I THINK WE KNOW SOMEONE IN THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT?

>> WE'RE ACTUALLY WAITING ON THE TENANTS CONTRACTOR TO SCHEDULE THE INSPECTION. I WAS TRYING TO GET THAT INFORMATION BEFORE THE MEETING TODAY.

IT MAY ALREADY BE CURRENTLY SCHEDULED.

ALL OF THE OTHER ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVE WITH THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT. JUST WAITING ON THE CONTRACTOR TO SCHEDULE THE FINAL INSPECTION FOR THE TI K I STRUCTURES.

>> YOU JUST CONFIRM THERE HAD ARE UNPERMITTED RENOVATIONS IN OUR LEASES WE HAVE THAT IN THERE.

SO WE HAVE TO DO A BETTER JOV MANAGING THESE TYPES OF THINGS.

IT IS OUR PROPERTY. SO MR. CHESS, IS THIS GOING TO BE IN YOUR BUCKET. THESE TYPES OF THINGS HAPPEN, WE HAVE TO TAKE THE POLICY, PROCEDURES AND NOT HAVE THESE THINGS HAPPEN IN REAL-TIME AND THEN BE MONTHS OR YEARS LATER AND STILL TRYING TO RESOLVE THEM.

IF THE VIOLATIONS HAD OCCURRED WERE THEY CURED AND YOU JUST SAID NO, TO THE PERMIT SIDE OF THAT THE ONE CONCERN I HAVE.

IT COMES FROM THE STREET, THE FP FROM BEFORE THE PROCEEDS.

I UNDERSTAND THERE'S A IDEAS TO HAVE THE REPORT RELEASED AND THE REVENUE AND HAVING A POSITIVE PART OF WHAT DOWNTOWN IS.

I UNDERSTAND THAT PART OF THE SCENARIO.

I'M JUST GOING TO GIVE YOU THIS PAPER.

AND MR. CHESS, I'LL GIVE YOU MY THOUGHTS ON THIS.

THIS IS GOING TO BE THE SAME THING I WILL BRING FORWARD.

THE SAME PROCESS I WILL DO FOR ANY KIND OF LEASES THAT HAVE HAD CHALLENGES IN THE PAST. I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE A SET POLICY THAT MANAGES THIS GOING FORWARD DON'T KEEP MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE OVER AND OVER.

FOR EFFECTIVE DATE. >> MISS GASSER YAW.

>> THE NEXT IS FOR 2203 ST. LUCY SHERIFF PAL PROPERTY.

THIS WAS THE BUILDING PRIOR TO THE OTHER CONSTRUCTION.

THEY HAVE CONSTRUCTED THE SHADE STRUCTURES.

NOW THEY ARE REQUESTING A SECOND MIAMI, REQUESTING A 6 MONTH EXTENSION TO OBTAIN THE PERMIT AND ADDITIONAL MONTH TO MAKE SURE THE PROJECT IS COMPLETED APPROPRIATELY, WITH THE PERMITS

THAT WERE REQUIRED. >> THIS IS THE ONE WHERE THEY DID THE WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT? AM I REMEMBERING THAT CORRECTLY?

>> YES, THAT, IS CORRECT. S, YOU HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH

COMMUNICATION WITH THEM? >> CORRECT.

SO WE ATTEMPTED TO COMMUNITY WITH THEM LATE, LAST YEAR.

WE SENT A LETTER OF DEFAULT. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE.

SO, THEN WE WERE MOVING INTO THE TO TERMINATE THE AGREEMENT.

THEN THEY NOTIFIED US THAT THEY HAD ISSUES WITH SEVERAL CONTRACTORS. THEY'VE RETAINED A NEW ENGINEER TO ARCHITECT TO REDRAW THEIR PLANS.

>> SO, HERE'S WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO ME.

IF YOU'RE GRANTING SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT, I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE GOOD COMMUNICATION WITH THE PEOPLE THAT WE ARE TRYING TO HELP THEM.

WE'RE TRYING TO HELP FORT PIERCE.

SO I-- DONATION KNOW HOW THIS VOTE IS GOING TO GO, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO EMPHASIZE-- TO THE PERSON WHO IS GETTING THIS THAT THEY ARE OUR PARTNERS.

THEY SHOULD NOT IGNORE US AND NOT DO THINGS WITHOUT PERMITS,

RIGHT? >> CLEARLY.

THAT'S JUST. >> I'M SORRY, GO AHEAD

COMMISSIONER GAINES. >> I'LL SAY IT FOR YOU MADAME CHAIR. I HAVE A PROBLEM HERE.

I HAVE A PROBLEM HERE. I'M TRYING TO STOP THIS RIGHT NOW. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT.

WE HAVE A PARTNERSHIP THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO.

THEY DON'T COMMUNITY WITH YOUR OFFICE.

THEY GO AHEAD AND BUILD IT AND COME BACK AFTER IT IS BUILD FOR US TO SAY, OKAY. NOW CAN WE HAVE A 6-MONTHS TO GET THE PERMITS THAT WAS ALREADY BEEN BUILT.

AND A MONTH TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT, WHICH, OKAY WHAT ARE

[01:00:02]

THEY GOING TO COMPLETE? I HEARD YOU SAY MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING WAS TYPICALLY DONE OKAY.

SO MY CONCERN IS, I UNDERSTAND THE KIDS NEED SHADE.

I'M NOT MAD ABOUT THAT. BUT I'M MORE WHAT MADAME CHAIR IS SAYING. YOU KNOW WE HAVE A COMMUNICATION. HOW ARE WE GOING TO PREVENT THIS IN THE FUTURE F WE HAVE ANOTHER PARTNER WHO SAID, I'M NOT GOING TO COMMUNITY FOR WHATEVER REASON.

NOT SAYING IT IS INTENTIONAL DON'T SEND ME E-MAILS.

NOT SAYING IT IS INTENTIONAL. FOR WHATEVER REASON.

WE TAKE A PICTURE AND THEY'VE BUILT SOMETHING MAYBE WE BE DON'T LIKE. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

AT THAT POINT WHAT'S OUR OPTIONS? TO SAY NO, YOU'RE NOT GETTING MONEY.

YOU BUILT IT NOW TEAR IT DOWN? OR PAY THE FINE.

I WANT SOMETHING IN THE FUTURE, SO WE WON'T BE HERE AGAIN.

>> YES. SO IN THERE AGREEMENT IT INDICATES WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD.

THEY USUALLY HAVE RENDERINGS OF WHAT THEIR INTENTION IS.

IF IT IS NOT WAS IS LISTED IN THE AGREEMENT, THEN WE CAN DENY

THE PAYMENT. >> SO IN THE FUTURE, IF SOMEONE DOESN'T COMMUNITY WITH COMMUNITY WITH YOUR OFFICE, YOU GO OUT THERE AND YOU SEE NEW CONSTRUCTIONS HOW DO WE KNOW WHATEVER IS BILL IS STRUCTURALLY SAFE.

ESPECIALLY DONE KIDS DOES THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT GET INVOLVED AND SAY HEY, GUYS YOU BUILT THIS.

NOW IT IS ON THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT TO GO IN AND STOP OR DO WHATEVER? I'M TRYING TO PREVENT THIS FROM

THE FUTURE. >> CORRECT THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT WAS NOTIFIED THIS STRUCTURES WAS BUILT WITHOUT THE PROPER PERMITTING. COME ON DOWN, MY FRIEND.

YOU KNOW I'M LOOKING AT YOU. COME ON DOWN.

I'M REALLY TRYING TO SAVE YOU HEADACHES.

>> YEAH. SO IF THEY'RE GOING IN FOR BUILDING PERMITS THEY'RE HAVING TO SUBMIT DRAWINGS THAT'S WHY I'M ASSUMING THEY WOULD HAVE A NEW ENGINEER AND WOULD HAVE TO DO THAT TO COMPLY WITH STRUCTURAL CODES.

IT IS TYPICAL PART, IF THEY'RE DOING THE AFTER THE FACT PERMIT, THEY STILL HAVE TO OBTAIN THOSE DOCUMENTS AND PRESENT THOSE

DOCUMENTS FOR THE PERMIT. >> SO I'M SATISFIED LOOKING AFTER THE FACT YOUR EYES ARE ON IT.

THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT EYES. >> IT IS THE BUILDING.

BUT YOU'RE MY ENGINEER, SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE ARE ALLOWING TO BE BUILT IN FORT PIERCE, ESPECIALLY ON AVENUE, SINCE WE'RE PUTTING ON OF THIS MONEY IN ORANGE AVENUE, BUT REALLY ALL OF FORT PIERCE. I'M TRYING TO MAKE SURE IF, WE DON'T HAVE COMMUNICATIONS AND THEY BUILD IT TO OUR STANDARDS.

>> IF THEY'RE PULLING BUILDING PERMITS IT HAS TO BE THE

BUILDING CODE STANDARDS. >> THIS IS AFTER THE FACT.

>> CORRECT. >> IF AFTER THE FACT THEN IT DOESN'T MEET STANDARDS? IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE GETTING TO?

>> LET'S SAY THEY, SOMETHING WAS NOT TO CODE, THE ENGINEER THAT'S GETTING INVOLVED IS GOING TO MAKE THEM REINFORCE THE STRUCTURES OR DO WHATEVER TO GET IT TO THE CURRENT CODE.

>> THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND.

>> THEY WILL NOT SIGN OFF ON THE BUILDING PERMIT.

>> THAT IS NOT OUR COST? >> I KNOW YOU CAN'T COMMENT ON

THAT. >> THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING I DON'T WANT TO COME BACK AND THEY TRY TO SAY WE OTHEM X AMOUNT OF DOLLARS. I'M TRYING TO NIP IT IN THE BUD RIGHT NOW. IT IS SAFE, AND YOU DIDN'T FOLLOW THE RULES OF OUR PROGRAM. CORRECT? SO AM I-- SAYING EVERYTHING IN.

>> I'M ON THE SAME PAGE. YES,.

>> I HAVE A QUESTION. MISS GASSER YAW WHAT WAS, REMIND OF THE ORIGINAL INTENT WE WENT BACK AND FORTH THEY WERE GOING TO DO SOMETHING. WE WERE RELUCTANT ON THIS AREA, BECAUSE OF THE WAY IT WOULD BE PHYSICALLY LOCATED.

>> IT WAS A SHADE RESTRUCTURE AND WE HAD TO REQUEST A REVISION, BECAUSE IT WAS NOT APPROVED FOR THE BUILDING CODE.

THEN THEY HAD TO PRESENT NEW, UPDATED RENDERINGS, WHICH IS THIS ONE WE DID APPROVE THIS ONE.

IT IS UP TO WHATEVER THE PERCENT OF IT IS, RIGHT?

>> CORRECT. >> WAS IT 50?

>> THIS ONE YOU AWARDED UP TO $15,000.

>> UP TO $15,000. THAT'S WHY I WANT TO MAKE SURE, UP TO $15,000. I WE APPROVED AN IMPROVEMENT OF

[01:05:04]

THAT BUILDING. NOT THIS DESIGN, BUT IT WAS SOMETHING TO BE A SHADE STRUCTURES UP TO $15,000.

>> I CAN PULL THEM UP. >> MY SCREEN WENT GRAY.

>> TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON.

THAT'S WHAT I DID THERE'S A BUTTON ON THE LOWER RIGHT HAND. JUST UNDERNEATH IT.

>> WHITING FOR IT TO LOAD. DO YOU WANT TO SEE THE ORIGINAL WE APPROVED IN THE FIRST AGREEMENT?

>> THE ONE WE APPROVED. THE SECOND ONE, I THINK

>> SO THIS WAS THE FIRST AMENDMENT THAT WE APPROVED ON NOVEMBER 12, 2024. TOWARDS THE END WE HAVE THE REND ERRINGS, THE REVISED RENNERRINGS.

>> WHAT WAS THAT ESTIMATED BUDGET ON THIS THING?

>> $65,000. SO, IN LIGHT OF THIS HAVE WE COMMUNICATED TO THEIR BOARD, AS WELL AS ORGANIZATION THAT THEY MAY BE AFFILIATED WITH ABOUT THEM BASICALLY NOT FOLLOWING LAW? HAVE WE COMMUNCATED THAT TO THEM? FROM THE CITY'S PERSPECTIVE? FPRA YOU'RE AN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, SIR.

I'M HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE SHERIFF PAL AREA, EJUST SAYING WHATEVER, WHATEVER LAW AND JUST DOING WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.

I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANY PUNITIVE PART OF THIS FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE. I KNOW THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH BUILDING AND THE CODE AND THAT STUFF.

I'M THE SIGNAL NEEDS TO BE SENT HERE, PARTICULARLY WITH THIS ORGANIZATION. BECAUSE TO ME THIS IS

UNACCEPTABLE. >> I BELIEVE THIS IS ALONG THE LINES OF ALL OF OUR AGREEMENTS NOTED BY THE COMMISSIONER DZADOVSKY. WE NEED TO ENFORCE AGREEMENTS AND I'VE BEEN STRESSING WITH THE STRAVINSKI WHETHER IT IS A GRANT OR LEASE AGREEMENT. WE NEED TO HOLD THE TENANTS OR THE VENDORS RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE.

THEY VIALITE NEED TO CITE THEMLE AND INFORM THE CONTRACT TERMS. IN THIS MANNER THEY DID DEFAULT. APPARENTLY WE DID NOT CITE THEM AND SEEM TO QUESTION THE FUNDING.

BUT WE HAVE TO TAKE ACTION F WE PUT THE WORD OUT WE'RE NOT GOING TO CONDUCT BUSINESS WITH THIS. I AGROW.

I CAN GET THE DETAIL OF THE COMMUNICATIONS WITH THIS ORGANIZATION. FROM MY UNDERSTAND, THEY BE HAVEN'T BEEN RESPONSIVE. SO, AT THIS STAGE, I CAN'T SAY WHAT THE SITUATION IS, BUT I CAN GET MORE DETAIL.

>> I CAN BE RESPONSIVE AND I HAVE A VOTE.

SO I'M GOING TO BE NOT SUPPORT ANYTHING AND WITHHOLDING MY SUPPORT, UNTIL THEY ARE . THEY CAN COME AND THEY CAN TALK, BECAUSE THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THEY HAVE A BOARD THEY DO WORK

IN THIS COMMUNITY. >> THEY REPRESENT LAW

ENFORCEMENT. >> AND THEY ARE JUST GOING TO DO SOMETHING, WITHOUT AND NOT BE RESPONSE IF? I'M GOING TO BE RESPONSIVE TODAY.

>> UNDERSTOOD SIR, BUT I WILL FOLLOW-UP AND GET MORE DETAIL.

>> MISGARCIA WE HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE PAL CENTER HERE. MR. KENNETH.

>> I JUST WANT TO SAY I ATTEND N EMERGENCY FAMILY.

I WAS ONLY KNIFED LAST WEEK TO BE HERE.

NOTIFIED LAST WEEK TO BE HERE. I THINK WHAT YOU HAVE PRESENTED THE MESSAGE IS VERY CLEAR. IT WAS POOR COMMUNICATION.

THOSE THINGS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED.

THE BOARD IS AWARE, AND APPARENTLY TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING TO STRENGTHEN THE COMMUNICATION.

THEY HAVE SAFETY IN MIND. SAFETY IS ONE OF THEIR MISSIONS

[01:10:03]

THAT THEY HAVE FOR THE KIDS. THERE WERE APPARENTLY SOME MISUNDERSTANDINGS. I DON'T THINK THEY PURPOSEFULLY IGNORED WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO.

I THINK IT WAS A MATTER OF IGNORANCE AND ASSUMPTIONS OF WHAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW. BUT I KNOW THEY'RE TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO.

IF MR. PEERSON WAS HERE THIS EVENING, I THINK HE WOULD EXPLAIN THE STEPS THEY HAVE TAKEN TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

I'M JUST A STAND IN THIS EVENING FOR TRYING TO COMMUNICATE THAT.

TRYING TO COMMUNICATE THEIR FEELINGS.

IT IS A WONDERFUL PROGRAM. IT IS NOTHING TO MISLEAD ANYONE.

I THINK IT IS POOR COMPUNCTION. >> SIR ARE YOU ON THE BOARD?

>> YES, I AM. >> YOU HAVE BEEN AT ALL OF THE BOARD MEETINGS WHEN IT WAS DISCUSSED.

>> I'M BEEN TO MOST OF THEM, SO MY PARTICIPATION ON THE BOARD IS BASICALLY REPRESENTING THE ATHLETIC PART OF THE KIDS.

SO SOME OF THESE I WEREN'T REALLY PRIVY TOO.

>> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OF THIS GENTLEMAN?

>> I JUST THE INDIVIDUAL THAT IS PART OF THIS GROUP HAS BEEN WORKING WITH THE CITY FOR MANY, MANY YEARS.

I'M DUMBFOUNDED THAT THIS IS UNFOLDING.

WE'VE HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RECREATION CENTER.

AT THE OTHER PLACE I GOT IT TAKEN AWAY FROM THE YMCA TO GIVEN TO THE CITY AND HALL-TYPE HAD IT FOR ALL OF THE YEARS.

>> THEY SEVERED THEIR TIES WITH THE CITY AND WENT WITH THE SHERIFF THIS WAS UNDER THE PREVIOUS SHERIFF.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT RELATIONSHIP THE CURRENT SHERIFF HAS WITH YOUR PAL, THE POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE NOW.

I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THAT. >> I'M JUST LEARNING.

THIS IS MY FIRST GO AROUND WITH THIS ONE.

>> I'M EXTREMELY FUM FOUNDED. >> THEY HAD TO DUMBFOUNDED THEY HAD TO PURCHASE AND BUY A BUILDING AND RENOVATE THE BUILDING, BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE A HOME.

THEY HAD LOST THEIR PREVIOUS HOME.

IN THE PROCESS OF BUILDING EVERYTHING TOGETHER THERE ARE A LOT OF THING THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE.

THIS IS ONE. SO IT IS OLD GARAGE THEY HAD TO RENOVATE, PUT ON A ROOF. SO IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING EVERYTHING SOLID AND WHOLE, THAT'S WHERE THE MISCOMMUNICATION I THINK TOOK PLACE.

>> YOU HAVE LICENSE PROFESSIONALS IF YOU HAVE LICENSED PROFESSIONALS THEY KNOW TO GET A BUILDING PERMIT?

>> I THINK THERE WAS SOME MOVEMENT TO GET A PERMIT.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY WENT. BUT I KNOW THERE WAS ACTIVITIES

TO PURSUE THAT. >> YEAH, AND I'M SORRY THAT, YOU DON'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO IT.

BUT YOU'RE TRYING TO. YOU'RE TRYING TO AND I APPRECIATE THAT. WE'RE JUST, WE'RE HAVING A HARD TIME, BECAUSE ALL OF THE OTHER RENOVATIONS THAT THEY DID, THEY KNEW WHAT TO DO WITH THEM, PREVIOUS BEFORE THIS,

PARTICULAR, APPARENTLY. >> I UNDERSTAND.

>> IS THERE ANY MESSAGE YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ME TAKE BACK?

>> COMMISSIONER GAINES. >> MADAME CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS, I'M NOT AT A POINT WHERE I WANT TO APPROVE OR DENY, BECAUSE I NEED TO HAVE AND THIS YOUNG GENTLEMAN HAS GRACEFULLY STOOD IN INTO THE FIRE.

>> INTO THE BREECH. >> AND I'M NOT GOING TO HAMMER YOU, SIR, BECAUSE BUT I UNDERSTAND THE NEED OF SHADE FOR KIDS AT THE POWER CENTER. I'VE BEEN TO THAT CENTER.

I'VE BEEN OUT THERE BEFORE THAT SHADE WAS, AND I UNDERSTAND.

I KNOW WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO THAT BUILDING.

AND I ALSO KNOW THAT IF YOU DRIVE BY THERE T DOES LOOK NICE ON ORANGE AVENUE. I GET THAT, BUT I NEED TO HEAR FROM I DON'T KNOW IF SHERIFF PEERSON WANTS TO COME IN OR SEND SOMEONE ELSE FROM HERE TO EXPLAIN TO US, HOW WE GOT HERE.

AND THEN, AT THAT POINT, ONCE I HEAR THAT EXPLANATION, I HAVE NO PROBLEM APPROVING, BECAUSE I THINK WE OIT TO THE TAXPAYERS OF FORT PIERCE TO LET THEM HEAR WHY WE'RE HERE.

BUT I KNOW THAT IN THE FUTURE, I'M JUST LETTING YOU KNOW IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW WHAT WE'RE DOING, I'M NOT GIVING YOU ANY MONEY.

YOU CAN GET MAD AND SEND ME THOSE E-MAILS, I DON'T KIR.

I'M NOT GIVING YOU ANY MONEY. I'M TRYING TON DO THAT HERE.

I WOULD RATHER WE PULL THIS AND LET THEM COME BACK TO EXPLAIN TO US. YOU CAN HAVE YOUR WHOLE BOARD COME THAT WOULD BE PERFECT TO EXPLAIN TO

[01:15:02]

US, WHY WE'RE HERE. AND TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T EVER GET HERE AGAIN. AND WE CAN ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AT

THAT TIME. >> UNDERSTOOD AND FAIR ENOUGH.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF I NEED TO MAKE A MOTION.

EXTEND IT? >> EXTEND IT TO THE NEXT F PR MEETING THAT'S WHAT I WOULD WANT TO DO.

NO ACTION OR MAKE A MOTION TO EXTEND THIS RESOLUTION 16 TO THE

NEXT F PR. >> THIS IS 17.

>> 17 TO THE NEXT MOTION. >> I'LL SECOND, WITH MAYBE AN ADDITION TO IT. THAT WE REQUIRE YOUR BOARD, AND ALL OF THEM TO APPEAR TO HELP US UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED HERE.

>> SOMEONE FROM THE BOARD WITH HOMEBOY COULDN'T MAKE T SOMEONE WITH THE MOST INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE QUESTIONS. TELL HIM TO GO BACK AND LISTEN TO THE MEETING AND THEY'LL HEAR WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO GET TO.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY MOTIONS.

WITH THE ADDITION TO MY COLLEAGUE, AGAIN MOTION IS TO MOVE THIS TO THE NEXT MEETING WITH SOMEONE FROM THIS BOARD

EXPLAINING TO WHY WE GOT HERE. >> MISS HUGE DOES YOU WANT TO

CHIME IN HERE. >> NO, MADAME CHAIR.

>> WE'RE CLEAR. >> YES, MA'AM.

>> THANK YOU. THERE'S A MOTION AND SECOND.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? >> JUST WANT TO AGAIN.

>> WE MIGHT WANT, DID YOU HEAR? >> OKAY.

GOOD. >> FOR THE RECORD, THIS IS NO KNOCK AT YOU, SIR. YOU STOOD UP AND DID SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULDN'T STAND UP AND DO, AFTER THEY HEARD US SAY WHAT WE WE ARE SAYING YOU RAISED YOUR HAND.

IS THIS NO KNOCK ON YOU. I WANT YOUR BOARD TO UNDERSTAND THAN YOU CAME AND DID WHAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DO, BUT WE

NEED SOME MORE. >> AND WE ARE VERY, VERY AWARE OF THE VALUE OF THIS ORGANIZATION.

AND HONESTLY WE APPROVE THE ORIGINAL, BECAUSE WE DID KNOW THAT THERE NEEDED TO BE SHADE. WE WANT YOU TO BE CLEAR.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU. >> CALL THE ROLL.
