Authorization to Shortlist and Delegation of Negotiations and Execution of Agreements to County Administrator for RSQ-TPR-25-061 – Design Services for Dade City Multifunctional Community Recreation, Veterans Center and Shelter – Not to Exceed Budgeted Amount Plus 20%

59:15Because we want that to keep working. So we'll they have left off my district. So C thirty, Commissioner Oakley. Okay. Don't try and read this one.

59:31Shortlists, and delegation of negotiations, and execution of agreements to county administrator. This was the shelter item commission?

59:39Oh this is shelter. Keith Wiley is behind that. Keith and I have been working with the city of Dade City and and many about this shelter and actually last year was one of our asks for the shelter last year. So hopefully we'll be able to achieve that. twenty million dollars that we're looking for from the state uh to match what we're gonna match with twenty million dollars is a forty million dollar project. So Very much needed on east Pasco and it for a

1:00:09regional shelter to be able to help people from Hillsborough and Pineas Counties I think is very warranted for for what we're asking for for the state for for shelter for people coming off the coast.

1:00:23Chair. I think we need to ask for a million for each degree of the temperature swing we have over over a twenty four hour. Period and then it would be fully fully funded.

1:00:34Yeah. But that's a good project that's coming and it it has a lot of emergency services with it that provides oxygen all for those people that that come here that need that care during the bad weather times and Getting them off that coast so absolutely and out of harm's way. So

1:00:51We are supporting your So I move

1:00:53approval.

1:00:54Second second more discussion?

1:00:56Yes.

1:00:56Um and I'm I'm very happy that we're moving this forward, trying to get the help from the state again. Uh hopefully they'll see it because what the people from the east side of the county went through was devastating. We know a lot of times when on the west side when the storm's coming in, the storm surge coming, people don't want to go to Wesley Chapel. They don't want to go to Dade City. So Having it close to where the people are is is definitely a need and there's so many other benefits to it to be multi-purpose. And I think we should add this with our um as far as we talk about what to do with Federally, as far as things. I think February,

1:01:27when we go to DC for the uh NACO conference, or before we add this into it, uh as far as when our Federal asks.

1:01:34Yeah, and I'm thinking that we do a separate trip as well because sometimes it's I think

1:01:39part of this is getting the design ready and we're moving forward on the design. But we still want to we still wanna set the stage to ask for the money now to get ourselves in position because it takes time to get it anyway.

1:01:49Yeah.

1:01:49Yeah.

1:01:50Okay, so you wanna make a motion?

1:01:52Some you have a motion second array.
