ALL RIGHT, I'M GOING TO CALL THE MEETING TO ORDER THIS LEFLEUR, YOUR ROLL CALL, PLEASE.
[Disaster Relief Committee]
[00:00:08]
CHAIRMAN FELIX HERE IS CHAIR WOLBERG.MR. DUNCAN IS NOT PRESENT AT THIS TIME.
SHE IS NOT PRESENT AT THIS TIME.
THANK YOU, MISS LEFLEUR, LET'S GO THROUGH THE ADOPTION OF THE MINUTE ACTUALLY PUBLIC COMMENTS, IF ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE WOULD WISH TO SAY A FEW WORDS.
SEEING SAYING NONE WILL CONTINUE, THE OPTION OF THE MINUTES WILL TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO LOOK AT IT. AND CHAIRMAN, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MENTION THAT A CORRECTION HAS BEEN MADE UNDER THE ROLL CALL HEADING, WHICH NOW LISTS SUSAN WOLBERG AS THE VICE CHAIRPERSON AND KEITH MILLER AS MEMBER.
SO IT'S PRETTY SHORT. WE HAVE A MOTION, BUT WE CAN CONTINUE.
I HEAR A SECOND. I'M GOING TO CALL IT ALL IN FAVOR.
ALL RIGHT, MOVING FORWARD AND DOING BUSINESS.
DISCUSSION OF COMMITTEE MEMBER ROLES IS LEFLER.
YES, THE FOCUS OF THE DISASTER RELIEF COMMITTEE IS TO RAISE MONEY AND RECOMMEND DONATIONS BASED ON CRITERIA AS ESTABLISHED IN THE GUIDELINES.
THE FORMER COMMITTEE SUGGESTED ASSIGNING EACH MEMBER WITH SPECIFIC ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES. THEY HAD ASSIGNED ONE LIAISON TO COMMUNICATE AND WORK WITH EACH MEMBER OF THE FOLLOWING, RAISING FUNDS AND COMMUNICATIONS WITHIN THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY, RAISING FUNDS AND COMMUNICATIONS WITHIN THE RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS, RAISING FUNDS AND COMMUNICATIONS WITHIN THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES IN PARTICULAR, SCHOOLS AND MILITARY.
WORKING WITH CITY STAFF THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER, IN PARTICULAR, POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND THE PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE.
AND HANDLING THE LOGISTICS OF THE COMMITTEE, FOR EXAMPLE, COORDINATING PAYMENTS TO NONPROFITS, PREPARING AND SCHEDULE PRESENTATIONS AND MARKETING MATERIALS.
THE COMMITTEE CAN DISCUSS THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND ASSIGN A ROLE TO EACH MEMBER BASED ON THE LIAISON DUTIES SET UP BY THE FORMER D.R.C.
OR CHOOSE NEW AND DIFFERENT ROLES BASED ON THE CURRENT MEMBERS BACKGROUNDS AND EXPERIENCE. A CONSENSUS BY THE COMMITTEE WILL CONFIRM THE ASSIGNED ROLES.
LOOKING AT THE PAST, I KNOW THIS IS NEW BUSINESS AND MAYBE GETTING AHEAD OF MYSELF, BUT AS TO.
WHAT THE DISASTER RELIEF FUND CONSIDERED AS DISASTER, HOW DO WE DISTRIBUTE FUN AT SOMETHING? I WOULD DEFINITELY.
MAYBE THAT'S SOMETHING I MAY HAVE TO DISCUSS WITH STAFF PARTICULARLY, BUT WHAT? BASICALLY, WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IS TO ABORT, IF WE CAN HAVE CONSENSUS TODAY IN THIS MEETING TO LOOK THAT FURTHER LOOKED INTO HOW THIS DISASTER RELIEF COMMITTEE, THIS FIRST FUND MOVING FORWARD.
I KNOW BASED ON WHAT WE'VE LOOKED AT.
WE'VE SEEN HOW THINGS HAVE DONE IN THE PAST, WHAT I WANT TO LOOK THAT IS TO VENTURE MORE WAYS OF OF THIS FOUNDATION CAN BE USEFUL TO THE COMMUNITY.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS WE USE OTHER ENTITIES SUCH AS THE RED CROSS AND OTHER ESTABLISHED ENTITIES THROUGH THEM TO TO, YOU KNOW.
IT SAYS JUST THE RED CROSS AND I LOOK FURTHER, LOOK INTO IT, HOW CAN WE? LOOK, OTHER BABY EVENTS MAY SAY TO ALL, WE CAN BE USEFUL, ALL WE CAN HOPE.
[00:05:01]
SO IF IF YOU KNOW, BY JUST WE DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO THE PER SAY, BUT IF WE CAN HAVE CONSENSUS TO LOOK WITHIN WITH STAFF.THAT YOU MEAN? AND FROM OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AT ALL EVENTS, DONATE DONATION FROM THE BOARD, FROM THE COMMISSION, FROM THE COMMITTEE AT THE.
THE FOUNDATION. OH, WE DON'T NEED TO WHOM WE DONATE AND WHAT CAUSES.
RIGHT. AND I ACTUALLY WILL BE COVERING A LITTLE BIT OF THAT UNDER ITEM TWO BECAUSE THERE ARE GUIDELINES THAT WERE SET UP BY THE FORMER BOARD AND THAT WILL HELP PROBABLY ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS, BUT YOU MAY WANT TO LOOK FURTHER WITH STAFF INTO OTHER OPTIONS.
I WILL COVER SOME OF THAT UNDER ITEM TWO.
WELL, THIS IS A DISCUSSION NO ONE IS ANY ANYTHING ELSE YOU GUYS WOULD WANT TO ADD BASED ON.
AND WE ALL HAVE A DIFFERENT ROLE IN THE COMMUNITY.
I WOULDN'T SAY ALL HAVE OR HAVE A.
IF THE NETWORKS AS WELL, YEAH, THAT INFLUENCE OR.
AND IF ANYTHING, THE LEAST IS THAT GETTING THE WORD OUT WITHIN OUR NICHE, WITHIN OUR NETWORK, KNOWING THAT, MAKING IT KNOWN THAT A CITY OF PALM BAY, WE DO HAVE A YOU KNOW, A FOUNDATION OFTENTIME PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING, YOU KNOW, REPUTABLE, YOU KNOW, A NATIONAL INSTITUTION TO DONATE TO AND NOT KNOWING THAT THIS IS AN EXISTENCE AND SERVING A GOOD, GOOD PURPOSE AND GOOD CAUSE.
SO JUST MAKE IT KNOWN WITHIN OUR NETWORK.
I'LL NOTE THAT OUR WORK IS GOING TO BE EQUALLY AS HARD OUT TO THE THEMI AS THE.
I MEAN, IT'S NOT RIGHT MEANS THAT IT WORKED OUT.
UM, ANY ANYTHING ELSE? ANYTHING, ANYTHING SPECIFICALLY, I THINK YOU BROADLY MENTIONED THAT.
YOU WITHIN THEN ADD ANYTHING SPECIFIC.
MAKES AWESOME ACTION IN TERMS OF WHAT? THAT WAS PROVIDED AT THE LAST MEETING, THERE WERE BUSINESS CARDS AS WELL AS A FLIER, THAT WAS THE MARKETING MATERIALS THAT THE FORMER YES.
OR THE FORMER COMMITTEE CAME UP WITH.
THERE IS THERE IS A LINK ON THE WEB PAGE, THE CITY'S WEBSITE.
THEY'VE GOT THEIR OWN PAGE WITH THE DONATION BUTTON, WHICH I'LL ALSO COVER ALSO A LITTLE BIT UNDER ITEM TO. WE DON'T NECESSARILY NEED A MOTION.
SOUNDS LIKE WE HAVE SOME LEVEL OF CONSENSUS AND WANT TO ADD ANYTHING IN TERMS OF WHAT
[00:10:05]
SPECIFIC? UNITIES I.IT'S COMMUNITY AND ALSO RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY BECAUSE.
THEY SHOULD. SO, WELL, IT SOUNDS LIKE WE ALL PRETTY MUCH IN AGREEMENT IN TERMS OF HAVING COMMITTED TO GETTING THE WORD OUT TO.
KEEP IN MIND, AS WELL AS HURRICANE SEASON START AND HURRICANE, HE'S ONE ASPECT.
WAS. THAT'S IN MANY DIFFERENT FORMS, SO BEAR THAT IN MIND.
MR. FOLEY, IF YOU WOULD, GO OVER THE PRIOR DONATIONS, I'VE PROVIDED A LIST OF PRIOR DONATIONS THAT EACH OF YOUR STATES.
THIS IS JUST FOR YOUR INFORMATION TO USE AS A REFERENCE.
THE LIST OF DONATIONS HAS ALSO BEEN ADDED TO THE COMMITTEE'S WEBPAGE ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE. ALSO AT YOUR SEATS IS A REVISED LIST OF THE COMMITTEE'S GUIDELINES THAT WERE ESTABLISHED BY THE FORMER DNC MEMBERS.
YOU CAN DISCARD OF THE HANDOUT THAT YOU WERE PROVIDED AT THE LAST MEETING BECAUSE THIS IS THE REVISED VERSION AND THERE WERE A FEW CHANGES MADE TO IT.
I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT A FEW KEY POINTS IN THE GUIDELINES IN THE EVENT OF A DISASTER.
ANY MEMBER OF THE DRC CAN COMMUNICATE DIRECTLY WITH THE BOARD'S SECRETARY THROUGH THE CLERK'S OFFICE TO REQUEST A SPECIAL MEETING.
THE CHAIRMAN, HOWEVER, SHALL MAKE THE OFFICIAL CALL ON SPECIAL MEETINGS.
QUALIFICATION OF A DONATION SHALL BE BASED ON A FEDERAL DISASTER BEING DECLARED.
DONATIONS ARE NOT TO BE MADE TO ANY THE INDIVIDUAL BUSINESSES OR PEOPLE.
PRIORITY SHALL BE GIVEN TO LOCAL DISASTERS, THE DRC SHALL NOT COLLECT MATERIALS OR PHYSICAL ITEMS, THE AMOUNT OF 250 DOLLARS IS THE MINIMUM DONATION PER ORGANIZATION FOR EACH EVENT. DONATIONS ARE ONLY ALLOWED FOR THE FOLLOWING 501 C3 ORGANIZATIONS, AMERICAN RED CROSS TWO ONE ONE BOVARD INC AND UNITED WAY ARE PROVIDED WITH THE POTENTIAL OF ADDING ADDITIONAL FERVENCY.
THREE ORGANIZATIONS IN THE FUTURE.
THE AMOUNT OF THE DONATION CAN BE ADJUSTED BASED ON THE DARCEY'S OPINION OF THE LEVEL OF DEVASTATION. THE DISEASE WEBPAGE ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE CONTAINS A DONATION BUTTON.
DONATIONS WILL BE MADE THROUGH THE CITY'S PAYPAL ACCOUNT.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL FUNDS DONATED THROUGH PAYPAL ARE SUBJECT TO A NOMINAL FEE, WHICH WILL BE DEDUCTED FROM THE AMOUNT DONATED.
CASH AND CHECK DONATIONS CAN BE MADE DIRECTLY THROUGH CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES, WHICH THEY ARE LOCATED ON THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE CITY HALL ANNEX.
BUILDING RECEIPTS FOR THE WRITE OFF THE TAX WRITE OFF WILL BE ISSUED ANNUALLY.
NO MORE THAN FIVE PERCENT OF THE DAKIS FUND BALANCE SHALL BE SPENT ON ADMINISTRATIVE PURCHASES EACH FISCAL YEAR.
THESE ARE EXPENSES SUCH AS MARKETING MATERIALS AND BUSINESS CARDS.
AND LASTLY, THE CITY'S FINANCE DEPARTMENT HAS PROVIDED THE DARK'S TOTAL CASH AVAILABLE FOR PURPOSES, WHICH WAS TEN THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED FORTY AND 42 CENTS AS OF MAY 31ST.
AND THIS INFORMATION WAS ALSO UPDATED ON THE COMMITTEE'S WEB PAGE.
LEFLEUR. ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING IN REGARDS JUST PRESENTED? RIGHT, SEEING NONE.
I. IT BASICALLY GOES INTO AN ACCOUNT AND IT WILL SIT THERE UNTIL THE BOARD CALLS A MEETING, A SPECIAL MEETING AND WILL DECIDE WHERE FUNDING WILL GO.
SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE CARRYING A BALANCE OF 10000.
THAT WAS ACTUALLY PROCEEDS FROM THE MAYOR'S BALL A FEW YEARS BACK.
AND THAT'S WHERE THEY'RE TAKING THE DONATIONS FROM AT THE CURRENT TIME.
AND THEN ANY MONEY THAT IS NOW BROUGHT IN FROM NEW DONATIONS THAT WILL ALSO GO INTO THAT SAME ACCOUNT AND SIT THERE.
AND THERE MAY BE TIMES THAT A BIG DEVASTATION HAPPENS, LIKE WHEN THE BAHAMAS LAST YEAR,
[00:15:04]
THEY HAD ACTUALLY SET UP A WEBSITE WHERE YOU COULD DONATE JUST FOR THAT PURPOSE.YES. AND THEN THOSE FUNDS WOULD GO DIRECTLY TO THAT CAUSE.
I MEAN, THIS IS CONSIDERED A SEPARATE ESCROW ACCOUNT ORDERS THAT GOES TO THE CITY'S GENERAL FUND. NOW THAT IS ACTUALLY SEPARATE, SEPARATE.
IT'S THE PALM BAY MUNICIPAL FOUNDATION.
IT'S FROM THAT ORGANIZATION AND EVERY EVERY DONATION THAT THIS BOARD VOTES TO RECOMMEND, IT ACTUALLY GOES TO THE I'M SORRY, PALM BEACH MUNICIPAL FOUNDATION.
AND THEY MAKE THE FINAL DETERMINATION.
SO ONE OTHER THING THAT I GUESS THAT'S WHY I WAS GETTING TOO FAR AHEAD OF MYSELF IN TERMS OF A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT THINGS, I'VE.
AND GRANTED, I'M PRETTY SURE THE THIS ONE THIS THE BOARD WAS STILL VERY WELL THOUGHT OUT BE THE INTENT WAS GREAT AND STILL IS A GREAT INITIATIVE, I BELIEVE.
BUT SOME OF THE THE WAY CURRENTLY, BASED ON WHAT YOU JUST READ, STATED THAT IT HAS TO BE DECLARE A FEDERAL.
THAT'S ONE THING I DON'T KNOW NECESSARILY THAT SITS WELL WITH ME.
WHAT IF IT'S NOT WHAT WE WANT? IF IT'S JUST A LOCAL, IT COULD BE A LOCAL DISASTER.
SO IS THAT MEAN THE BOARD CANNOT I MEAN, THE COMMITTEE CANNOT ATTRIBUTE A DONATION? THAT'S ONE ASPECT.
AND I'M LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW, THE RED CROSS, THE RED CROSS IS A VERY LIMITED ORGANIZATION THAT WE ARE USING AS A.
WE UTILIZE RED CROSS ONLY LAST FOR THE LAST.
A YEARS. MAYBE THE LAST TWO, 20, 19 OF CONTRIBUTIONS THAT ARE MADE ARE MADE THROUGH THE RED CROSS. INCLUDING TWENTY TWENTY, TWENTY EIGHTEEN WAS SPACE COAST WAS A DIRECT DONATION TO. BOVARD ENTITY, I DON'T KNOW, I THINK WE ARE LIMITING OURSELVES, YOU MENTIONED TWO TO ONE ONE AND AND ALSO.
THAT WAY, YOU KNOW, A WAY TO PROVIDE I THINK THAT'S THAT'S THESE ARE AREAS WE, THE BOARD, MUST LOOK LOOKED INTO.
WE CAN BROADEN OUT OF SCOPE IF WE WANT TO BE REALLY FAIR AND USEFUL.
THE NEEDS OF THEIR. AND I WOULD AGREE THAT.
TWO INDIVIDUALS AND SO ON, BUT IF THE NEEDS ARE THERE AND THAT'S ALL THE PURPOSE OF THE DRC, SO WE WANT TO BE CONSIDERED LOOKING AT OTHER WORTHY CAUSES AND ENTITIES THAT WE CAN PARTNER WITH. ABOUT.
THE RED CROSS. YES, YOU WOULD TELL THEM FOR WHICH DISASTER YOU WERE DONATING AND THEY WOULD MAKE THE FUNDING BASED ON THAT.
MEAN. AND TALK ABOUT PRESSING.
I SAY. ACCORDING TO THE WAY THINGS ARE NOW, WE WOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT. I'M SAYING THAT'S CORRECT.
EXACTLY. BECAUSE HERE'S MY ISSUE.
I MEAN, NOTHING WRONG WITH THE I THINK THE RED CROSS IS A GREAT ORGANIZATION.
I'LL SAY IT, I'M NOT A BIG FAN PERSONALLY, NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE NOT BY ANY MEANS, BUT I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU LOOKED AT THE ADMINISTRATIVE PART OF IT, A BIG PART OF IT IS THAT THE ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTRATIVE FEE THAT GOES INTO ANY DONATION TO THE RED CROSS IS SUCH A HUGE ORGANIZATION.
AGAIN, YOU KNOW, I WOULD SAY IT.
I THINK THEY'RE GREAT. I'M JUST THAT JUST ME PERSONALLY, I'M NOT A BIG FAN.
JUST THE SIMPLE FACT THAT WHEN THERE'S A HUGE PORTION OF MY DONATION THAT GOES TOWARDS ADMINISTRATIVE FEE, IT DOESN'T SIT WELL WITH ME.
BUT BUT AGAIN, THAT'S WHY I'M SAYING WE WE WE OUGHT TO LOOK INTO SEE HOW WE CAN STRETCH THAT DOLLAR, YOU KNOW? THAT'S IT, SO THAT'S THAT'S SIMPLY WHY I'M SAYING.
[00:20:02]
AND AND OR EXPAND THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT RECEIVE THE RIGHT.YEAH, YEAH, BY STRAIGHTENING IT, THAT MEANS IT GOES SO A GREATER PURPOSE.
WE GOT WE GOT ALL LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE REPRESENTATION HERE, IF CAN YOU SPIN ON THAT IN TERMS OF. THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT THAT ASPECT AS WELL.
WHY WAS IT, YOU KNOW, IS THERE A SPECIFIC REASON WHY WE LOOKED AT A CERTAIN ORGANIZATION, THESE THERE MAYBE A LEGAL ASPECT THAT WOULD NOT.
FOR FOR THE INTEREST OF THE BOARD, IF YOU, YOU KNOW, KIND OF GIVE US AN IDEA, WHY WOULD THE HISTORY OF THAT AND ALSO MAYBE IF POSSIBLE, MAYBE HE CAN LOOKED INTO THE THE THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS AS WELL.
IT'S NOT JUST THE RED CROSS AND THE THE OTHER TWO AS WELL.
AND I CAN JUST ALSO ADD THAT THERE WAS A MEETING A COUPLE OF YEARS BACK WHERE THEY INVITED ORGANIZATIONS TO COME PRESENT TO THE BOARD, WHICH THEY DID RED CROSS, UNITED WAY.
THEY WERE ALL INVOLVED. AND THAT'S WHERE THOSE NAMES CAME FROM.
AS YOU KNOW, THAT'S A GOOD POINT, BUT YEAH, AND THAT'S IMPORTANT.
ONE THING THE OTHER THING AS WELL WE HAVEN'T SAID MUCH ABOUT IS THAT, YOU KNOW, THE WHOLE THE NOTION OF IT HAS TO BE DECLARED.
AT ALL DISASTER GIVE TO LOCAL AND YOU GET IT HAS TO BE DISTRIBUTED LOCALLY.
IT SOUNDS WILD, BUT IT'S ACTUALLY NOW.
SOMETHING MAJORLY CAN BE HERE, JUST, YOU KNOW, ASSOCIATED WITH BRAVADO, PALM BAY PARTICULARLY, BUT.
THERE'S A CERTAIN. AND THE COUNTIES WERE ABOUT.
SO THINGS MAY NOT BE DECLARED A FEDERAL SOME AREAS IN PALM BAY THAT MAY GET FLOODED, MAYBE THEIR HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE WOULD COVER THAT, MAYBE.
OH, SINCE WE DON'T GIVE TO BUSINESSES AND OR PEOPLE.
BUT THAT PARTICULAR AREA THAT GOT FLOODED, HE SERVED UP YOUR LOCAL.
ALL RIGHT, GIVE ME THE DEFINITION, RIGHT, IF IT'S NOT DECLARED FEDERAL, THEY'RE OUT OF LUCK AND I'M SAYING THAT WE VISIT, RIGHT? MISS LEFLEUR, ME, YOU.
YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH IS THERE IS SOME OF THIS DISCUSSION EVER CAME UP AND WAS THAT EVER SOMETHING THAT CONSIDERED.
HE ACTUALLY CAME UP WITH THESE GUIDELINES AFTER HAVING A MEETING WHERE THE CITY MANAGER GAVE SOME INPUT, LEGAL, GAVE SOME INPUT.
I CAN CERTAINLY GO BACK INTO THE VIDEOS AND LOOK FOR THE PREVIOUS AND ACTUALLY PROVIDE YOU
[00:25:03]
THE MINUTES AND MAYBE COPIES OF THOSE VIDEOS SO YOU CAN SEE THOSE AS WELL.I'D LIKE TO ACKNOWLEDGE, MADAME CHAIRMAN, CITY MANAGER, CURRENTLY SITTING IN THE AUDIENCE, WERE YOU PART ON ANY SHAPE OR FORM, PART OF THE OK, THE FORMATION? IT WAS UNDER THE PREVIOUS CITY MANAGER UNDER LISA MORRELL.
SO THE NEXT STEP FORWARD WITH THAT SO FAR IS, IS IS WHAT DO WE MEET AGAIN TO LOOKED AT AND OR IS THAT SOMETHING WE CAN GET WITH STAFF AND WITH LEGAL TO TRY TO GET SOME OF THE ANSWERS? WERE YOU THE NEXT MEETING IS ALREADY SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 30TH BECAUSE THIS BOARD ONLY MEETS QUARTERLY UNLESS A SPECIAL MEETING IS TO BE HELD.
AND I HAVE SOME OF THOSE ANSWERS PRIOR TO SEPTEMBER.
YES, WE CAN CERTAINLY GET THOSE WE CAN GET INFORMATION FROM STAFF AND EMAIL IT TO THE BOARD AND THEN WE CAN GO FROM THERE.
AS FAR AS OUR NEXT OTHER BUSINESS, OUR NEXT MEETING IS SCHEDULED FOR MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 20TH, AS WE SAID EARLIER, UNLESS THERE'S A REASON FOR A SPECIAL MEETING.
THE NEXT REGULAR MEETING IS SCHEDULED FOR MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 20TH, AT SIX P.M..
A MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE WANT TO ADD ANYTHING.
YOU WANT TO ADD ANYTHING? WELL, I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT INDIVIDUAL ROLES IN TERMS OF WHAT? THE. ARE WE ASSIGNING THOSE ROLES TODAY OR THAT'S GOING TO BE A.
AND A GOOD GRASP. THEY REQUIRE.
ORGANIZED, I LIKE THAT, I LIKE TO BE AHEAD OF IT, WE CAN WE COULD CERTAINLY DO IT AT THE NEXT MEETING IF YOU WANT TO GIVE IT SOME THOUGHT AND THEN COME BACK WITH MAYBE SOME DIFFERENT IDEAS VERSUS WHAT THEY HAD ON THE PRIOR BOARD.
WE'D JUST LIKE TO ACKNOWLEDGE MISS DONKIN AND MISS SCOTT.
WE ARE JUST ABOUT TO ADJOURN THE MEETING OR THE SIX.
WE BE PARTICIPATING OR ARE WE ABLE TO BOARD MEMBERS PARTICIPATE, MANY THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON LOCALLY. SEE THAT EMAIL FROM THE LOCAL CHAMBER THAT THERE THAT'S ESTHER SPEAKING ABOUT HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
WHAT SHOULD OUR ROLE BE, CHAIRMAN? BY. IT IS A MEMBER IT IS A CHAMBER EVENT THAT THE CITY ACTUALLY WE CO-SPONSORED WITH PARTNER THE CITY OF BOMBAY PARTNER.
SO IN TERMS OF OUR DIRECT ROLE AS THE BOARD, WE DON'T HAVE A DIRECT ROLE PER SAY BECAUSE IT'S A CHAMBER CHAMBER EVENT.
IT'S REALLY MORE ABOUT BEING MORE INFORMATIVE, IF ANYTHING, JUST INVITING LOCAL
[00:30:03]
BUSINESSES IN IN THE INDUSTRY TO INFORM THE PUBLIC.A GREAT. CERTAINLY, I MEAN, I WILL CERTAINLY ATTEND.
MEETING ADJOURNED.
