“And the last question I have isn't just about something else. It's not even the parents asking. It's just my curiosity. For the FPL bill on running the lights and all of the systems, who's paying that bill? Is that separated from what they use in the fields versus what we use in the community center? Yes.”

“I have a question about this space for kids versus teens. Some of the parents were wondering, you know, when we talk about the teen programs versus the younger children programs on the second floor. Like, you remember last year when we had the kids that came in for the internship and their presentation? Yeah. Some of the things that they talked about was having that multi-use rooms for their studies, even for people who are doing business that want to have a meeting. Would that be something that that third floor will be also for teens or would it be just the second floor even for teens?”
