This was written by the same people that pushed back when there was a referendum to try to bring clarity and transparency into where commissioners live, right? The same people that got up here opposing this and yell about ethics were the same people opposing a referendum item requiring transparency into where commissioners live in this town. because they knew who that…”

“I'm going to vote, but before I do, I want to address the comment by the commissioner. This doesn't make it easier to hide money. The form that we are required to fill out and file with the state every year, the form one is the exact same form that you created here, except with the town of Surfside logo. So again, all that, excuse me, please don't talk over me. This is the exact same form. It requires where you're getting your money and which houses. Look at a form one, look at the form that was created for Surfside. It's the same thing with a different logo on it. So to sit here and say that…”

“A couple of things. First of all, nobody's taking away anyone's First Amendment rights. Everybody has the right to speak. But this is a meeting and has a process as well, right? It's not a free where everybody can come and scream fire or accuse people of crimes they didn't commit without any sort of proof. And that's accusatory. That's defamation. There's laws that we follow up here. And yes, we volunteered for this role, and we expect a certain amount of heat, so to speak. But we don't also have to be abused and sit up here and do that. I HAVE A VERY DIFFERENT ROLE THAN EVERYBODY ELSE UP…”

“Please have a seat, thank you. I love it, it's the same people that scream about the First Amendment get up here and yell for keep going after hours, right? Is anyone being thrown out, is anyone, no. There is a time limit, everybody gets that same time limit and we move on. All right, opening up to commission discussion.

“This is a rescission on the restriction. This restriction made it an offense where you can be recalled and you're violating all kinds of statutes that were made up. This is a rescission on a restriction. You don't have to take an office. If the mayor, like the previous mayor, has no interest in being involved in the town and wants to run for governor, he doesn't have to take an office.
