10/08/09 09:17:31 --
10/08/09 09:17:33 >> OH, THERE YOU ARE.
10/08/09 09:17:35 GLAD YOU ARE HERE.
10/08/09 09:17:35 >> GOOD MORNING.
10/08/09 09:17:38 MY NAME IS JASON WATSON,
10/08/09 09:17:41 CHAIRMAN OF THE
10/08/09 09:17:41 DOWNTOWN
10/08/09 09:17:42 COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMMITTEE.
10/08/09 09:17:44 I CAME --THE LAST TIME I WAS
10/08/09 09:17:47 BEFORE YOU GUYS WAS 6
10/08/09 09:17:47 MONTHS
10/08/09 09:17:47 AGO.
10/08/09 09:17:48 I GAVE YOU A BRIEF UPDATE OF
10/08/09 09:17:51 WHAT WE HAD DONE AT THAT
10/08/09 09:17:51 POINT.
10/08/09 09:17:52 SO IT IS SENSIBLE FOR ME TO
10/08/09 09:17:55 TELL YOU A FEW THINGS THE CAC
10/08/09 09:17:57 HAS BEEN LOOKING INTO AND
10/08/09 09:17:58 SUPPORTING SO FAR.
10/08/09 09:18:01 MOST RECENTLY IN FACT OUR
10/08/09 09:18:01 LAST
10/08/09 09:18:04 MEETING, WE VOTED TO
10/08/09 09:18:05 SUPPORT A
10/08/09 09:18:07 PUBLIC ARTS PROGRAM RUN OUT OF
10/08/09 09:18:09 THE CITY ART DEPARTMENT I
10/08/09 09:18:09 BELIEVE.
10/08/09 09:18:12 IT IS A PROGRAM THAT LIKE A LOT
10/08/09 09:18:14 OF PROGRAMS THAT ARE IN THE
10/08/09 09:18:17 CITY RIGHT NOW FACING
10/08/09 09:18:19 CUT BACKS
10/08/09 09:18:20 AND BUDGETARY CONCERNS.
10/08/09 09:18:22 WE FELT IT WAS AN IMPORTANT
10/08/09 09:18:25 EVENT TO HOLD DOWNTOWN AND KEEP
10/08/09 09:18:26 DOWNTOWN SO WE'VE ALLOCATED
10/08/09 09:18:28 MONEY TO HELP THEM WITH THEIR
10/08/09 09:18:29 START UP COSTS.
10/08/09 09:18:31 THE ACTUAL EVENT, IT IS BUY ENI
10/08/09 09:18:34 CAN'T LIKE, 2009 WAS THE LAST
10/08/09 09:18:34 TIME.
10/08/09 09:18:36 WE ARE GIVING THEM START UP
10/08/09 09:18:37 MONEY FOR THEIR 2011 PROJECT.
10/08/09 09:18:39 IT IS OUR HOPE THAT THAT WILL
10/08/09 09:18:42 GET IT OFF THE GROUND AND
10/08/09 09:18:43 PRIVATE CONTRIBUTORS AND OTHERS
10/08/09 09:18:45 WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE UP THE
10/08/09 09:18:48 REST AND GET IT
10/08/09 09:18:48 THERE.
10/08/09 09:18:50 ANOTHER EXAMPLE, DOWNTOWN
10/08/09 09:18:52 MARKETPLACE, IT IS A FARMERS
10/08/09 09:18:54 AND OTHER VENDORS COME TOGETHER
10/08/09 09:18:55 ON FRIDAYS, IT RUNS OCTOBER
10/08/09 09:18:57 THROUGH I WANT TO SAY MAY BUT
10/08/09 09:18:59 DON'T QUOTE ME ON THAT.
10/08/09 09:19:01 IT IS EXPANDING.
10/08/09 09:19:02 THEY ARE MOVING IT AND SHUTTING
10/08/09 09:19:05 DOWN A COUPLE STREETS AND ASKED
10/08/09 09:19:08 FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THE
10/08/09 09:19:09 CITY
10/08/09 09:19:09 COST, ADDITIONAL PERMITTING,
10/08/09 09:19:11 POLICE OFFICERS ET CETERA, THAT
10/08/09 09:19:13 ARE NECESSARY TO MAKE THAT
10/08/09 09:19:13 FUNCTION.
10/08/09 09:19:14 WE SUPPORTED THAT AGAIN WE
10/08/09 09:19:16 THINK IT IS A GOOD SIGN FOR
10/08/09 09:19:17 DOWNTOWN AND FOR THE
10/08/09 09:19:17 MARKETPLACE.
10/08/09 09:19:20 THE GOAL THERE
10/08/09 09:19:23 IS IF IT CAN
10/08/09 09:19:25 SUCCEED ON FRIDAYS THEY MAY
10/08/09 09:19:27 MOVE IT TO SUNDAYS TO BRING
10/08/09 09:19:28 PEOPLE DOWN ON THE WEEKEND.
10/08/09 09:19:31 THIS FITS INTO THE GENERAL
10/08/09 09:19:33 THEME FROM CACs PERSPECTIVE WE
10/08/09 09:19:35 ARE TRYING TO ACTIVATE
10/08/09 09:19:36 DOWNTOWN, BRING MORE EVENTS,
10/08/09 09:19:37 MORE PEOPLE DOWNTOWN AND
10/08/09 09:19:40 GENERALLY EXPAND IT OUTSIDE THE
10/08/09 09:19:43 9-5 WORLD THAT IT GENERALLY
10/08/09 09:19:46 CONSISTS --THAT IT HAS
10/08/09 09:19:47 HISTORICALLY CONSISTED OF.
10/08/09 09:19:49 ANOTHER EVENT WE SUPPORTED THAT
10/08/09 09:19:52 WAS WORTH WHILE
10/08/09 09:19:53 WAS TAMPA
10/08/09 09:19:54 TWILIGHT CRY TIER YUM.
10/08/09 09:19:56 IT HAPPENED MARCH OF LAST YEAR
10/08/09 09:19:58 AND THE FIRST TIMES THE DONE.
10/08/09 09:20:00 A HIGH SPEED BIKE RACE THAT
10/08/09 09:20:02 TAKES PLACE ON THE URBAN
10/08/09 09:20:02 STREETSCAPE.
10/08/09 09:20:04 WE ARE VERY EXCITED WE JUST
10/08/09 09:20:07 LEARNED THEY ARE COMING BACK
10/08/09 09:20:07 NEXT YEAR.
10/08/09 09:20:08 THE PROGRAM WE FUNDED LAST YEAR
10/08/09 09:20:10 IN THE HOPES THEY WOULD BRING
10/08/09 09:20:13 THIS EVENT BACK, IT
10/08/09 09:20:16 IS A
10/08/09 09:20:17 NATIONAL GROUP THAT --THERE
10/08/09 09:20:19 IS A POINT SYSTEM ET CETERA.
10/08/09 09:20:21 IT BRINGS PEOPLE IN.
10/08/09 09:20:23 BRINGS HOTELS DOWNTOWN, HOTEL
10/08/09 09:20:24 ROOM STAYS DOWNTOWN AND IT JUST
10/08/09 09:20:26 PROVIDES ANOTHER ACTIVITY THAT
10/08/09 09:20:26 EXISTS.
10/08/09 09:20:28 WE WERE EXCITED TO SEE
10/08/09 09:20:30 SOMETHING THAT WE SUPPORTED
10/08/09 09:20:32 EARLY ON, LATCH ON IN HOPES IT
10/08/09 09:20:34 WILL BE HERE FOR MANY YEARS TO
10/08/09 09:20:34 COME.
10/08/09 09:20:35 AN ANNUAL EVENT.
10/08/09 09:20:38 AS I AM SURE YOU KNOW,
10/08/09 09:20:38 A
10/08/09 09:20:41 MAJORITY OF CRA FUNDS GO FROM
10/08/09 09:20:43 DOWNTOWN TOWARDS PAYING THE
10/08/09 09:20:45 BOND ON THE CONVENTION CENTER.
10/08/09 09:20:48 WE HAVE
10/08/09 09:20:51 A
10/08/09 09:20:52 SIGNIFICANT
10/08/09 09:20:53 INVESTMENT A WHOLE OPPORTUNITY
10/08/09 09:20:55 TO WALK AROUND THAT SITE AND IT
10/08/09 09:20:56 IS VERY IMPRESSIVE.
10/08/09 09:20:58 SAW VIDEO THE OTHER DAY OF THE
10/08/09 09:21:01 TAMPA MUSEUM OF ART WHEN THEY
10/08/09 09:21:01 TESTED THEIR LIGHTS.
10/08/09 09:21:03 I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN
10/08/09 09:21:05 THAT YET BUT IT WILL BE A
10/08/09 09:21:07 LANDMARK FEATURE AND SOMETHING
10/08/09 09:21:09 CAC IS EXCITED ABOUT.
10/08/09 09:21:10 LOOKING FORWARD, ONE OF THE
10/08/09 09:21:12 THINGS WE ARE PLANNING FOR OUR
10/08/09 09:21:14 BUDGET PURPOSES NEXT YEAR, WE
10/08/09 09:21:16 PUT A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY INTO
10/08/09 09:21:17 MARKETING AND EVENT PROGRAMMING
10/08/09 09:21:21 WITH THE IDEA NOW WE
10/08/09 09:21:21 WILL HAVE
10/08/09 09:21:24 THIS CENTER PIECE PARK THAT WE
10/08/09 09:21:26 CAN USE WE CAN ACTIVATE IT WITH
10/08/09 09:21:28 VARIOUS EVENTS AS THEY COME UP,
10/08/09 09:21:31 WE DON'T HAVE
10/08/09 09:21:34 SPECIFIC IDEAS,
10/08/09 09:21:35 BUT KNOW PROGRAMMING WILL NEED
10/08/09 09:21:36 TO TAKE PLACE THERE.
10/08/09 09:21:39 ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO ACTIVATE
10/08/09 09:21:41 THAT PARK IT IS A PRIORITY FOR
10/08/09 09:21:41 US.
10/08/09 09:21:43 THAT IS ALL I HAVE.
10/08/09 09:21:45 WE ARE EXCITED THE STREETCAR
10/08/09 09:21:47 EXTENSION BREAKS I BELIEVE
10/08/09 09:21:50 AROUND FRIDAY EVEN, TO BRING
10/08/09 09:21:53 THE STREETCAR FROM ITS EXISTING
10/08/09 09:21:54 TERMINATION POINT DOWN TO THE
10/08/09 09:21:54 WHITING STREET GARAGE.
10/08/09 09:21:57 I THINK THAT IS AN EXCITING
10/08/09 09:21:59 EVENT HAPPENING DOWNTOWN.
10/08/09 09:22:01 CAC FUNDS SOME OPERATION COSTS
10/08/09 09:22:03 OF THE STREETCAR BUT THE E
10/08/09 09:22:04 PANGS OF IT WAS FEDERAL MONEY.
10/08/09 09:22:08 BUT IN ANY EVENT IT IS
10/08/09 09:22:08 EXCITING
10/08/09 09:22:09 TO BE DOWNTOWN.
10/08/09 09:22:11 WE ARE HAPPY WITH THE PROGRESS
10/08/09 09:22:14 WE HAVE SEEN OVER THE PAST
10/08/09 09:22:15 COUPLE YEARS.
10/08/09 09:22:15 I AM HOPEFUL.
10/08/09 09:22:17 IF WE CAN GET THE ECONOMY TO
10/08/09 09:22:20 TURN AROUND A LITTLE BETTER, I
10/08/09 09:22:21 WILL BE EVEN MORE EXCITED BUT
10/08/09 09:22:24 THE SAME IS TRUE FOR MY 401 K.
10/08/09 09:22:26 I HAVE NOTHING ELSE OTHER THAN
10/08/09 09:22:29 CAC DID ASK THAT I
10/08/09 09:22:31 INVITE ANY

10/08/09 09:40:08 AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
10/08/09 09:40:11 HIGHLIGHT IT IS FACT THAT BY
10/08/09 09:40:12 2010 THERE WILL BE 20
10/08/09 09:40:14 SIGNIFICANT ART AND CULTURAL
10/08/09 09:40:16 VENUES IN THE DOWNTOWN TAMPA
10/08/09 09:40:18 WITH AT LEAST 20 ADDITIONAL
10/08/09 09:40:19 INSTITUTIONS IN THE IN TOWN
10/08/09 09:40:20 AREA.
10/08/09 09:40:21 SO IT IS REALLY --IT IS
10/08/09 09:40:24 SOMETHING THAT THE TAMPA
10/08/09 09:40:25 BAY
10/08/09 09:40:26 AND COMPANY, TOURISM INDUSTRY
10/08/09 09:40:29 IS INTERESTED IN AS AN
10/08/09 09:40:32 OPPORTUNITY TO PACKAGE THIS
10/08/09 09:40:33 WONDERFUL AMENITY THAT HAS
10/08/09 09:40:36 EVOLVED OVER THE LAST 40 OR 50
10/08/09 09:40:37 YEARS BUT REALLY CERTAINLY IN
10/08/09 09:40:39 THE LAST 10 YEARS.
10/08/09 09:40:42 OUR IN TOWN AREAS BECOME
10/08/09 09:40:43 REALLY
10/08/09 09:40:44 A CULTURAL MAGNET.
10/08/09 09:40:46 SO REFERENCING THE ARTS PLAN IT
10/08/09 09:40:48 IS CLEAR OVER THE LAST 18
10/08/09 09:40:50 MONTHS MUCH HAS BEEN DONE TO
10/08/09 09:40:53 IDENTIFY A ROLE FOR THE ARTS IN
10/08/09 09:40:54 THE CHANNEL DISTRICT AND LINK
10/08/09 09:40:57 IT CLOSELY TO ITS SURROUNDING
10/08/09 09:40:57 NEIGHBORS.
10/08/09 09:41:00 I AM QUOTING FROM THE PLAN
10/08/09 09:41:00 ITSELF.
10/08/09 09:41:03 BY KEEPING IT REAL AND
10/08/09 09:41:03 DOING IT
10/08/09 09:41:06 TOGETHER THE HINGES
10/08/09 09:41:08 THAT OCCUR
10/08/09 09:41:11 HAVE SHOWN POTENTIAL TO BECOME
10/08/09 09:41:13 A MAJOR URBAN DESTINATION FOR
10/08/09 09:41:14 ARTS, BUSINESS AND WHAT IS GOOD
10/08/09 09:41:17 FOR ONE IS SERVING ALL.
10/08/09 09:41:19 I WILL GLADLY TAKE QUESTIONS
10/08/09 09:41:21 AGAIN I WILL DELIVER THIS WHITE
10/08/09 09:41:23 PAPER TO YOU BEFORE NOON.
10/08/09 09:41:24 >> MISS SAUL-SENA.
10/08/09 09:41:26 >> THIS IS VERY VERY EXCITING.
10/08/09 09:41:27 I WAS AFRAID WITHOUT A PAID
10/08/09 09:41:29 STAFF PERSON NOTHING WOULD
10/08/09 09:41:31 HAPPEN WITH THE PLAN BUT UNDER
10/08/09 09:41:33 YOUR LEADERSHIP THINGS HAVE
10/08/09 09:41:36 HAPPEN ADD LOT AND THAT
10/08/09 09:41:37 20 BY
10/08/09 09:41:38 2010 SOUNDS TERRIFIC.
10/08/09 09:41:39 TWO SMALL QUESTIONS.
10/08/09 09:41:42 ONE IS
10/08/09 09:41:45 IS TAMPA BAY AND
10/08/09 09:41:47 CO,
10/08/09 09:41:47 APARTICIPANT?
10/08/09 09:41:48 >> YES.
10/08/09 09:41:51 >> THEY NEED TO TAKE THESE
10/08/09 09:41:51 AND
10/08/09 09:41:52 SHARE THEM.
10/08/09 09:41:55 >> THEY HAVE CULTURAL
10/08/09 09:41:55 TOURS.
10/08/09 09:41:58 WE ARE ENCOURAGING INVOLVEMENT
10/08/09 09:41:59 IN THE ARTS CO-OP BY SMALLER
10/08/09 09:42:02 INSTITUTIONS NOT ABLE TO AFFORD
10/08/09 09:42:02 TO EARLIER.
10/08/09 09:42:05 WE OURSELVES HAVE BECOME
10/08/09 09:42:07 MEMBERS TO HELP REPRESENT
10/08/09 09:42:08 SMALLER VENUES.
10/08/09 09:42:08 >> THAT'S GREAT.
10/08/09 09:42:11 THE OTHER QUESTION IS WHO WILL
10/08/09 09:42:11 DO THE PROGRAMMING?
10/08/09 09:42:14 I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A
10/08/09 09:42:17 QUESTION FOR
10/08/09 09:42:18 YOU OR MR. HUEY.
10/08/09 09:42:19 IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN
10/08/09 09:42:22 >> I WILL ANSWER TO MY EXTENT
10/08/09 09:42:25 OF MY KNOWLEDGE, THE PARKS
10/08/09 09:42:27 STAFF IS VERY VERY INVOLVED IN
10/08/09 09:42:30 PLANNING THE RIGHT
10/08/09 09:42:33 TYPE OF
10/08/09 09:42:35 EVENTS, DETERMINING THE RIGHT
10/08/09 09:42:36 EVENTMAKING SURE THOSE HAPPEN.
10/08/09 09:42:39 THEY ARE MADE FOR THE
10/08/09 09:42:40 PARK AND
10/08/09 09:42:41 DESIGN IS SUITABLE TO AFFORD
10/08/09 09:42:41 THOSE.
10/08/09 09:42:43 THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER
10/08/09 09:42:46 GROUPS THINKING OF
10/08/09 09:42:48 EVENTPLANNING SO THEY WILL MELD
10/08/09 09:42:49 WITH THE SCHEDULE THAT THE
10/08/09 09:42:51 PARKS STAFF IS PUTTING
10/08/09 09:42:51 TOGETHER.
10/08/09 09:42:53 THERE ARE PEOPLE WORKING ON
10/08/09 09:42:55 RIVER WALK PROGRAMMING THROUGH
10/08/09 09:42:56 THE PARK THAT COULD UTILIZE THE
10/08/09 09:42:57 PARK AS WELL.
10/08/09 09:42:59 WE ARE LOOKING AT A FEW EVENTS
10/08/09 09:43:01 BASED ON THINGS WE HAVE SEEN
10/08/09 09:43:03 DONE IN OTHER URBAN AREAS.
10/08/09 09:43:05 I THINK IT WILL IN THE END
10/08/09 09:43:07 BECOME ANOTHER BIG
10/08/09 09:43:09 COLLABORATION OF WHAT DATE IS
10/08/09 09:43:10 AVAILABLE BECAUSE WE WANT TO
10/08/09 09:43:12 HAVE SOMETHING GOING ON THERE
10/08/09 09:43:13 ALL THE TIME.
10/08/09 09:43:13 >> THAT'S GREAT.
10/08/09 09:43:14 THE PARKS DEPARTMENT WILL BE
10/08/09 09:43:17 THE LEAD AGENCY IN TERMS OF
10/08/09 09:43:17 KEEPING MASTER CALENDAR.
10/08/09 09:43:20 >> AS YOU LIKE TO SAY, AT THIS
10/08/09 09:43:21 POINT, THE PARK STAFF WILL BE
10/08/09 09:43:22 THE GROWN UPS IN CHARGE AND
10/08/09 09:43:24 THEY WILL BE KEEPING THE HOUSE
10/08/09 09:43:27 AND SO THEN IT WILL BE THE
10/08/09 09:43:27 OPPORTUNITY FOR EVERYBODY ELSE
10/08/09 09:43:30 TO COME AND MAKE THEIR JOB
10/08/09 09:43:33 EASIER PRESENTING EVENTS
10/08/09 09:43:35 COMPLIMENTARY TO THE PARK AND

10/08/09 09:44:37 CARRY OVER FROM A PREVIOUS
10/08/09 09:44:40 COUNCIL AND BOARD DISCUSSION.
10/08/09 09:44:42 I WAS REQUESTED TO COME AND
10/08/09 09:44:45 GIVE YOU SOME RECOMMENDATIONS
10/08/09 09:44:48 ABOUT HOW TO INTEGRATE THE
10/08/09 09:44:51 BOARD MORE INTO THE
10/08/09 09:44:51 RE
10/08/09 09:44:54 DEVELOPMENT TV SHOW AIRED ON

10/08/09 09:44:59 DO THAT AND BRING YOU
10/08/09 09:44:59 RECOMMENDATION.
10/08/09 09:45:02 WHAT I WILL BE DOING
10/08/09 09:45:03 IS MEETING
10/08/09 09:45:06 WITH DEANNA LOPEZ AND MINDY
10/08/09 09:45:08 SNIDER AND WOULD LIKE TO BRING
10/08/09 09:45:11 RECOMMENDATION FOR YOU FOR YOUR

10/08/09 09:45:16 >>
10/08/09 09:45:17 ANY QUESTIONS?
10/08/09 09:45:18 MR. DINGFELDER?
10/08/09 09:45:19 >> JUST PERSONALLY, I DON'T
10/08/09 09:45:22 KNOW THAT IT IS SOMETHING THAT
10/08/09 09:45:23 NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT BACK TO THE
10/08/09 09:45:24 BODY.
10/08/09 09:45:26 WE HAVE A LOT MORE IMPORTANT
10/08/09 09:45:26 THINGS TO DISCUSS.
10/08/09 09:45:28 I THINK IT IS SOMETHING MARK
10/08/09 09:45:31 COULD PROBABLY JUST DISCUSS
10/08/09 09:45:32 WITH US INDIVIDUALLY.
10/08/09 09:45:34 IN OTHER WORDS, CHAIRMAN SCOTT
10/08/09 09:45:36 AND HIS DISTRICT, HE MIGHT HAVE
10/08/09 09:45:39 AN EVENT MARK WANTS TO INCLUDE
10/08/09 09:45:42 HIM ON A PARTICULAR SHOW.
10/08/09 09:45:43 I JUST USE YOU AS AN EXAMPLE
10/08/09 09:45:46 BECAUSE YOUR DISTRICT HAS A LOT
10/08/09 09:45:47 GOING ON.
10/08/09 09:45:49 BUT ANY WAY, SO MY SUGGESTION
10/08/09 09:45:52 WOULD BE NOT EVEN NECESSARILY A
10/08/09 09:45:52 BOARD ISSUE.
10/08/09 09:45:55 MARK HAS THE MESSAGE AND YOU
10/08/09 09:45:58 CAN JUST DO
10/08/09 09:46:00 IT INDIVIDUALLY.
10/08/09 09:46:00 >> OKAY.
10/08/09 09:46:03 >> I CAN ONLY SPEAK FOR
10/08/09 09:46:04 MYSELF,
10/08/09 09:46:07 I NEVER GOT
10/08/09 09:46:09 ELECTED TO PROMOTE
10/08/09 09:46:11 MYSELF BUT TRY TO STEER THE
10/08/09 09:46:12 SITUATION WE ARE IN TO THE BEST
10/08/09 09:46:13 OF THIS WHOLE COMMUNITY.
10/08/09 09:46:16 I AM NOT GOING TO GO
10/08/09 09:46:19 ON TV AND
10/08/09 09:46:21 TAXPAYERS EXPENSE AND DO A SHOW
10/08/09 09:46:22 ON A CRA BUDGET.
10/08/09 09:46:25 I AM NOT GOING TO DO
10/08/09 09:46:25 THAT.
10/08/09 09:46:25 MONEYS ARE TIGHT.
10/08/09 09:46:27 YOU HAVE TO EXPEND THOSE TO THE
10/08/09 09:46:29 BEST THAT YOU CAN, TO MAKE
10/08/09 09:46:31 THOSE GOOD PEOPLE THAT ARE
10/08/09 09:46:32 SPENDING THAT TAX DOLLAR A
10/08/09 09:46:33 BETTER PLACE TO LIVE NOT ONLY
10/08/09 09:46:36 IN THE CRA DISTRICT BUT
10/08/09 09:46:36 THROUGHOUT THE CITY.
10/08/09 09:46:38 YOU CAN COUNT ME OUT.
10/08/09 09:46:41 >>
10/08/09 09:46:42 ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
10/08/09 09:46:44 MISS SAUL-SENA
10/08/09 09:46:47 >> I
10/08/09 09:46:50 THINK
10/08/09 09:46:52 IF MR. HUEY WOULD
10/08/09 09:46:55 CHAT WITH US INDIVIDUALLY
10/08/09 09:46:56 E
10/08/09 09:46:59 COLLUDING MR. MIRANDA, THAT
10/08/09 09:46:59 WOULD BE SUFFICIENT.
10/08/09 09:47:02 >> ONE IS PROGRAM IS ALREADY
10/08/09 09:47:05 BEING SHOWN, SMART?
10/08/09 09:47:08 SO IT IS NO --IS THAT
10/08/09 09:47:08 RIGHT?
10/08/09 09:47:11 SO IT IS
10/08/09 09:47:13 NO ADDITIONAL TAX
10/08/09 09:47:13 EXPENSE.
10/08/09 09:47:15 NUMBER TWO I BELIEVE IT IS
10/08/09 09:47:16 ABOUT PROMOTING WHAT IS
10/08/09 09:47:18 HAPPENING IN THE CITY OF TAMPA.
10/08/09 09:47:19 THAT IS FROM MY STAND POINT.
10/08/09 09:47:21 I HAVE DONE THESE IN THE PAST
10/08/09 09:47:22 IT IS ABOUT PROMOTING WHAT IS
10/08/09 09:47:25 GOING ON IN THE
10/08/09 09:47:28 DISTRICT OR
10/08/09 09:47:28 COMMUNITY.
10/08/09 09:47:30 I SEE NO REASON WHY AT SOME
10/08/09 09:47:32 POINT YOU DON'T WANT TO INVITE
10/08/09 09:47:34 THOSE WHO WANT TO COME AND TALK
10/08/09 09:47:35 ABOUT PROJECTS ON THE SHOW.
10/08/09 09:47:37 THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THAT
10/08/09 09:47:37 NOW.
10/08/09 09:47:39 AIM NOT SAYING --I DON'T CARE
10/08/09 09:47:40 IF YOU NEVER INVITE ME.
10/08/09 09:47:42 THAT IS NOT THE ISSUE.
10/08/09 09:47:43 THE ISSUE YOU HAVE CERTAIN
10/08/09 09:47:46 PERSONS ON THE CRA BOARD,
10/08/09 09:47:49 THOUGHT IT WAS A
10/08/09 09:47:50 GOOD IDEA.
10/08/09 09:47:52 THE SUGGESTION CAME FROM MISS
10/08/09 09:47:52 SAUL-SENA.
10/08/09 09:47:55 WHY NOT HAVE THEM COME ON
10/08/09 09:47:57 AND
10/08/09 09:47:59 DISCUSS PROJECTS.
10/08/09 09:48:01 I AM NOT OPPOSED TO THAT.
10/08/09 09:48:03 YOU ARE DING IT ANY WAY.
10/08/09 09:48:06 SPENDING TAX
10/08/09 09:48:08 DOLLARS ANY WAY.
10/08/09 09:48:11 THERE IS NO BREAK DOWN HOW
10/08/09 09:48:12 THESE THINGS ARE DONE.
10/08/09 09:48:14 I GOT A WHOLE FEEDBACK FROM
10/08/09 09:48:16 THAT WHEN I RAISED THE QUESTION
10/08/09 09:48:18 ABOUT THE TAMPA SPORTS
10/08/09 09:48:18 AUTHORITY.
10/08/09 09:48:19 THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHEN I
10/08/09 09:48:21 SAT DOWN AND DID NUMBERS
10/08/09 09:48:21 MYSELF.
10/08/09 09:48:23 I DON'T SEE A REAL PROBLEM WITH
10/08/09 09:48:23 THAT.
10/08/09 09:48:26 MY FEELING IS THAT YOU
10/08/09 09:48:26 MAY WANT
10/08/09 09:48:28 TO CONTACT AND SEE WHO WOULD
10/08/09 09:48:29 WANT TO GO ON AND TALK ABOUT
10/08/09 09:48:32 WHAT YOU
10/08/09 09:48:35 ARE TALKING ABOUT.
10/08/09 09:48:37 COUNCIL MIRANDA DOES NOT CARE.
10/08/09 09:48:39 MISS SAUL-SENA WOULD LIKE TO GO
10/08/09 09:48:39 ON.
10/08/09 09:48:41 TO ME, IT DON'T MATTER ONE WAY
10/08/09 09:48:41 OR OTHER.
10/08/09 09:48:44 IF YOU WANT TO INVITE ME FINE,
10/08/09 09:48:45 IF YOU DON'T THAT IS FINE TOO.
10/08/09 09:48:48 I AM NOT GOING TO COME AT YOU
10/08/09 09:48:49 BE ON THE PROGRAM.
10/08/09 09:48:50 >> THANK YOU.
10/08/09 09:48:52 I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY IT IS
10/08/09 09:48:53 NOT THAT I DON'T CARE IT IS
10/08/09 09:48:55 THAT I DON'T --YOU KNOW,
10/08/09 09:48:57 THINGS HAPPEN IN POLITICS AND I
10/08/09 09:48:57 AM NOT
10/08/09 09:49:00 --I AM NOT A VERY GOOD
10/08/09 09:49:00 POLITICIAN.
10/08/09 09:49:03 I AM A GOOD ELECTED OFFICIAL
10/08/09 09:49:05 BUT I DON'T LIKE TO POLITIC IN
10/08/09 09:49:05 OFFICE.
10/08/09 09:49:06 I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS WHAT IS
10/08/09 09:49:08 GOING ON BUT WHAT I AM SAYING
10/08/09 09:49:10 IS THAT I DON'T MIND IF SOMEONE
10/08/09 09:49:12 CALLS ME AND WANTS TO TALK
10/08/09 09:49:13 ABOUT SOME HISTORY THING ABOUT
10/08/09 09:49:15 BASEBALL LIKE I HAVE DONE
10/08/09 09:49:18 BEFORE IN THE PROGRAM
10/08/09 09:49:18 OR

10/08/09 09:49:24 I DON'T WANT TO BE VIEWED AS
10/08/09 09:49:25 SOMEONE USING THIS TYPE OF --
10/08/09 09:49:28 I AM NOT SAYING YOU OR ANYBODY
10/08/09 09:49:30 I AM SAYING ME.
10/08/09 09:49:31 YOU CAN LAUGH, DO WHATEVER YOU
10/08/09 09:49:33 WANT BUT THIS IS REAL SERIOUS
10/08/09 09:49:34 WITH ME.
10/08/09 09:49:37 I AM NOT GOING TO GO OUT
10/08/09 09:49:38 AND DO
10/08/09 09:49:39 THAT AND THAT IS JUST ME.
10/08/09 09:49:42 THAT IS THE WAY I

10/08/09 10:01:08 CRA ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT

10/08/09 10:01:17 PROBABLY NOT AS MUCH WITH THE
10/08/09 10:01:19 ECONOMY BUT IN THAT
10/08/09 10:01:20 NEIGHBOURHOOD, IN THE
10/08/09 10:01:22 NEIGHBOURHOOD AROUND THAT
10/08/09 10:01:22 AMOUNT OF MONEY.
10/08/09 10:01:24 THINGS ARE BEING DONE THAT HAS
10/08/09 10:01:26 NOT BEEN DONE BEFORE.
10/08/09 10:01:29 I MEAN MAY NOT BE HAPPENING IN
10/08/09 10:01:31 THE --AS FAST AS WE WANTED IT
10/08/09 10:01:33 TO HAPPEN BUT IT IS BEING DONE.

10/08/09 10:01:38 THINGS ARE
10/08/09 10:01:39 LOOKING BETTER.
10/08/09 10:01:40 SO I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO THINK
10/08/09 10:01:42 THERE IS NOTHING --THAT IS
10/08/09 10:01:43 NOT TRUE.

10/08/09 10:01:47 THE COMMUNITY LOOKING BETTER,
10/08/09 10:01:48 PEOPLE ARE INVOLVED.
10/08/09 10:01:50 MONEY IS BEING SPENT.

10/08/09 10:01:53 WE MAY NOT AGREE WITH
10/08/09 10:01:55 EVERYTHING GOING ON BUT THERE
10/08/09 10:01:58 ARE THINGS BEING DONE

10/08/09 10:02:23 ARE
10/08/09 10:02:23 SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS.
10/08/09 10:02:26 FRANKLY, THERE IS SO MUCH TO BE
10/08/09 10:02:28 DONE THAT SOME TIMES YOU ALMOST
10/08/09 10:02:31 LOSE SIGHT OF WHAT WE
