Those recommendations come to the council. And of course, those recommendations are accompanied by their actual proposals.”

“I WANTED TO, I KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ALS, BUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT SERVICES, WE'RE LOOKING AT MEALS, what they call personal care assistance, somebody who needs help in bathing or dressing, managing their medication, housekeeping, group events under social or recreational activities, transportation.

“Chair? Yes. I wanted to ask about those services. I think that I'm very concerned about local participation. Because you talk about home health care, meals, nursing services, arts and crafts, financial literacy, outdoor activities, hair salons. How are you going to tap into Riviera Beach residents to provide some of those services? Because I know that there are home health care services here in the city. There are nursing services here in the city. There is PEOPLE WHO DO YOGA, PEOPLE WHO DO PILATES. THERE'S A LOT OF VENDORS IN THE CITY OF RIVERA BEACH. AND HOW ARE WE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT…”

“Yeah. And that gives you no confidence. Right. That gives me no confidence when you say housing authority, Palm Beach County.

Because that is a opportunity for the Riviera Beach home health care services to be able to provide services in their own cities.

“I would like to make a motion to table this to the very next meeting because I have a list of questions that I want to ask in regards to the project.

“NEW SPEAKER I PLACE THIS ON THE AGENDA BECAUSE I WANTED TO MAKE SURE I THINK THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY'S CONTRACT ENDS IN DECEMBER AND I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD AN EVALUATION PROCESS SET UP FOR HER, AND SO THAT WHEN WE GET TO HER CONTRACT RENEWAL, THAT WE WILL HAVE THE INFORMATION THAT WE NEED TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION.
