“Well, I just want to give some clarity, and I'm sorry for interrupting. The item, and I just want to check for myself, the item we're voting on today is to remove the ballot question, right? The issue of the legality of the question and do we still apply that law is something that we still have to deal with. But today, because of the deadline, we need to give Miami-Dade County an answer. Do we put this question on or not? So this is not going to, and Steve, please correct me if I'm wrong, this is not going to give or take away what was put in until there is another action on that. So today is…”

“potentially, or it could completely stop those projects, right? Isn't that why you guys pulled it off in the first place?”

“No, no, no. When I said when your commission value engineered the memorial, it was for that exact purpose, which is if the voters voted no on it, you were completely screwed. You would never have been able to do the water main project. This town would never be able to build a memorial. So no, I don't think going to the voters right now on this, if that vote's no, it can have an adverse effect and completely mobilize this town. All right, so Madam Clerk, let's call the roll, please.”

“Well, first of all, I just want to make a comment. I mean, Commissioner, you've stated at prior meetings that you were all about process and procedure. And the town attorney has sat here for 50 minutes and explained why this process and procedure wasn't due diligence. At the August 6th special meeting, you tried to delay the memorial, saying that, hey, we're going to be able to change this very soon as soon as the attorney comes forward. So you've kind of made statements that you're alluding to it. We spent the last 45 minutes talking about this and you're just gonna say no anyway. So I'd…”

“All right, moving on to Item 1E, Agenda and Order of Business. I have a couple of changes, first and foremost. I don't see as many parents as I thought we would have. But Item 9F has been sitting on our agenda for, I think, this is the fourth month already. School is going to be starting on Thursday, and obviously we've had a lot of concerned parents reaching out I know Mario the town manager has been looking at other options and has some things for us to consider I would like to move this forward I don't know if there's parents here specifically for that if there's residents here for that…”

“All right. And I'm assuming there's some quotes that were added to the item. We're going with the same one. I don't know if you guys feel comfortable putting it to consent, if you had any questions ahead of time that were short enough so we don't get into full discussion. Otherwise, we can just leave it out.”

“So let's separate the items because you want to discuss how we want to manage the at-large and put in your person so they can meet if you have someone and this way the Youth Council could continue but again you want to have a much larger conversation I don't know if it's appropriate to put it over here into a board appointment.”

“All right, all in favor? Aye. All opposed? All right, moving on to item 1F, Mayor and Commission remarks. So thank you everyone for coming out here today. It's so nice to see public participation. I don't know if Commissioner, it's because of your video you put out, but I think you said it. I couldn't just state it better myself. There's a lot that happens in this room. And a lot of people don't really pay enough attention. So I'm glad that you know, sometimes it takes an item that affects people personally But to bring people out, but I'm glad to have people out here to see this And see the…”

“All right, so I keep hearing we have to, we have to. And I feel like this is manufactured a sense of urgency. As long as you have a quorum, they can meet. And as of now, they have a quorum so they can meet. And what you're doing is you're being presumptuous and you're deciding, the two of you right here, to choose all five or all six of the seats that are available. Now, you've done this before, and we've had to undo it. Again, you guys have two tonight, and you have the majority, so you can do whatever it is you want here. But understand that that's not right. What you're doing is you're…”
