“So I want to acknowledge your point of view, and I agree, and I think it's a wonderful nomination. At this moment, I'm going to support Chair Eretes, particularly because at this moment, we're dealing with a back and forth between him as our chair and the city with this issue with the city administration building. So specifically because of this interaction right now, I feel that it's an important time to keep him as chair, and I think that we should keep this in mind for next year. Since already this is an extension, I think let's kind of project that this would be his last term, since it's…”

“I mean, I appreciate how this is more impactful, and the concept of portals, I think that's a beautiful statement, and I understand it. I do have concerns about people jamming into it and getting hurt, but if the powers that need to approve those things, code-related or fire or whatever it is, approve it, then I would support it.”

“I mean, I was hopeful at last meeting since Commissioner Gabela's representative was here, and there had been such an issue with the art in their district that they would understand, well, this is your representative's responsibility. I mean, has that kind of been reiterated to them?”

“Make a motion for AIPP Resolution 18985, a resolution of the Miami Art and Public Places Board recommending to the Miami City Commission approval of an ordinance amending Chapter 62 of the Code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, titled Planning and Zoning, more particularly by amending Article 7, titled Historic and Environmental Preservation Board and Article 8. 16 titled art in public places to modify board appointments making findings containing a severability clause and providing for an effective date And I would just add that the first report quarterly report is going out this…”

“Okay, I remain confused about different things, which it's fine. I don't want to go through everything. What I want to understand is, you know, if... The chair is saying that already this language exists in the code. Why it needs to be reiterated or why isn't it being followed? Is it that it's not in the code? You know, this statement, no request for qualifications, request for proposals, call for artists or other solicitation shall be issued until the board has reviewed project scope, a budget allocation selection method. You know, does that exist in the code or not? No, it does not.”

“Okay, so that's definitely news to us. And in the last meetings where we, well, I guess last time Indra was not able to make this presentation, but in the previous one, when this call to artists came up, that was not explained to us, right? So he could have done it outside of us, but you're saying that he chose to ask the city to do the call on their behalf. Yes. Okay. And that is why you're saying it didn't come to us because this is a favor that we're doing them because we're not obligated to do it. Correct. That's what you're saying.”
