Charging stations Yellow Dot program RFQ process
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

Those were other people. Those were other people. I won the win last night. So we're moving on for them to win every game here in Pasco County, right? Right. That's right. Right. So that's it. Go Bolts.
Okay. Uh yeah, I I second your global. Mr. Um So a couple things. It says in my notes here, charring stations, but I think that is change charging stations. Um I was having a discussion with someone and I realized that we don't have any requirements for charging stations. to be um constructed and I think we should because more and more people are uh purchasing the electric cars and I don't know if any of these apartments are putting
in any of the charging stations um there but I think we should be looking at requiring to have some. I mean But i I I can't recall what it is, but pretty soon it's gonna be all electric cars. Local
governments have stations, so
What does?
Well the city is every hills has one.
I
know
but you gotta have where you live. And so we need more. I I think the uh Amazon fleet is all going to uh electric vans. But my understanding is they're not they're not putting them in a lot of these apartments and we need to have some. We need to have some. Otherwise they're gonna come in and tear it all up. You're looking at personal
has an electric car, don't you think they'll put it in?
I I think we should be um requ requiring Some of them can be a lot. Yeah. Otherwise,
we have less apartments, we don't need any of 'em.
We could have less police and less fire. All right, so I've handed out something to you called the Yellow Dot program. This was sent to me by a constituent and it said the the program first began in twenty fourteen after the Florida Senate passed Senate bill. SA262, blah, blah, blah. It authorized all counties in Florida to elect to implement the Yellow DOT program. I'm sorry our firefighters left. The Office of Public Safety Director, F DOT, is the responsible agency for action taken at the state
level. I don't know why it says F Dot. I think that's a mistake. Any person in the county that is participating in the program simply has to follow the guidelines. They are provided a yellow sticker and medical information form. The sticker is typically placed in the rear window of your car and the medical form with a photo in your glove compartment. And I think you could put it on a window at your house. But and it's voluntary. But you I think the county has to decide if they're going to be in the program. So I I wanted everyone
to take a look at this and um see if it's something that we want to do.
I uh wanted to uh see if the Sheriff's Office could give us an update on first. Um it's very exciting about what what's going on there, so maybe sometime in the future schedule uh an update for us on first. And um Just uh wanted y'all to know um I met with uh our county attorney, Jeff Steinsnyder, and others, and um I think the county and the attorney's office is working on a a good program to increase the um
I should say decrease the time it takes to get an RFP out on the an RFQ out out on the street. Um as some as you know, sometimes it's it's taken a little longer than we'd like to see. So uh we're moving towards uh a uh a program that I think will imp improve that.
That's what I have.
That's it. Okay, Mr. Bradford.
