    “So in synergy to what Commissioner Smith mentioned, You all have to, because we don't have a strategic transportation plan, unfortunately. And I know a lot of the county lines have been removed. Some of them have been removed. So for the ones that we actually own, and for those lines, the bus lines that actually have been removed, there has to be some sort of synergy there to ensure that we're not duplicating anything. So I'm not sure if you all did that due diligence already. If not, I would love to get a follow-up on that.”

    “Thank you so much I want to piggyback off of commissioner. Floor on rice my smear. In reference to the relationships that we even have a current commercial commercial accounts so you know you know all the accounts that we have obviously a lot of big commercial accounts so the scope is. to his point, great, but we need to really have a follow up to see what direction you're trying to go into. In essence, I know you might elaborate on that tonight. But I mean, Commissioner Smith has no comments. That means, you know, we're on track.

    “My thing is, is that enough? And the reason I'm saying that is because our current customers, the changes in what happened with the county, I think someone mentioned it, you mentioned it last meeting, Commissioner Smith. A lot of folks are not educated on what's happening. They're a customer, their bill is increased, but they're blaming the city. And also we may be looking to to some different scales as it relates to our current model currently. So there has to still be outreach to our customers to let them know. So does this cover that scope?”

    “Thank you. How much are the wellness dollars this time around? Are they the same? $70,000? $70,000. I wanted to give this to the manager. This is an NGO screen that we learned about at Florida League of Cities. So maybe we can also offer this as a provision for our employees who may want to have that screening for heart attack prevention. So they did give us that information. Maybe that could be something that you all look into. But I think you guys can do better for wellness dollars. You know, because that's preventative care is very important. I know we're not supposed to be doing any of…”
