    “Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you to the county attorney for that answer. My follow up question is, is it the same in Broward County and Palm Beach? Do they have six months, or do they have a year, and how are we looking to the south of us in Monroe County?”

    “And thank you, Mr. Chairman, and for the record, we love you, Dennis. Thank you. We will always love you, man. He's one of us. So Dennis, the next question is, do we know what's happening to the north of us, to the south of us, and to the west? Are the counties doing this exact same thing? Is it six months, is it a year? Where are we?”

    “Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And first of all, let me just publicly say thank you for allowing the modification of the original language. The modification that you made allowed for the funding that's captured now to be used in all parks throughout the county. So I take my hat off to you on that. Secondly, I'm not quite sure if we will have the same number of interests in certain districts in this county to advertise at certain parks. The demographics are different. The impact on revenue would be different. But more than anything, there are a majority, not the majority, but there are quite a few…”

    “And thank you so much. So I ask that question because- Can we lower down? Thank you. I ask that question because in reviewing this memo, it's almost as if this is a vindication for the CPOs who were pretty much tarnished. With the perception that CBOs are taking monies and are not being in compliance with the county's requirements. But it's also a great indicator that not only should we continue the funding and continue watching over these CBOs to ensure that they do the right thing. But it's also the very reason why I stated before and I'll say it again, that CBOs in Miami-Dade County should…”

    “Hold on, hold on, hold on. No, no, no, no, no, no. Listen, listen guys, listen, listen. We're going to do this in order. I get it. We're going to get there. Nomina. Nomina. Come back to the podium, please. Nomina. All right. I apologize, but you're going to be fine. Trust me on this one. So if you can repeat what you stated, and then again, I'm going to refer to Commissioner Gilbert for questioning, and then we'll go down the line for other questioning. But I want to give you that respect. So let's try that again. Repeat the numbers, and then if someone has questions, we'll get those…”
