Water awareness, fire rescue station nine, Moffitt Cancer Center
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.

Uh I believe I have some pictures. Um if you'll put up the one for uh I attended the uh 2021 water awareness, this is that picture. Mr. Kavallo was with me.
That was quick.
That's another picture, but uh the second picture is uh Well that it doesn't stay up long, is it on timer?
Y'all playing jokes for me today.
There you go.
Well there's a contest. Has anybody ever been to the Urban Air Adventure Park? Uh if you haven't been there, it's really neat uh place, I tell you. All indoors, all air conditioned. So if you're gonna work out and it's it's really a pretty neat place. So it's pretty amazing. And and their um attendance there with people coming back in have started increasing. So it's right there in New Port Richey. Go to the next picture. Oh, there you go.
Some real good artwork. amazing ideas that some of the young kids have about The water cycle.
Okay, go to the next picture. The next picture is uh fire rescue station number nine. Last Tuesday, May 27th, Land O' Lakes. Um That's in Ms. P Fitzpatrick's uh area there of the county in her district. And it's uh what's really important about this station and of course that was groundbreaking in it nine, ten months we'll see a station there. But uh what's really amazing is the fact uh is this station was
not just voted on by the Um commission, but this was part of the referendum we asked for our citizens to vote on. And this is one of the first nations that was approved by the citizens of our county. So we have a lot to be thankful for. If they hadn't voted in, I think we still would have had to vote on this issue and we would have. But it's great to know that your citizens in Pasco County. feel the same way we do. And and it's
actually uh great to know that that we're all on the same page and moving forward with the growth that we're having here in this county. So pretty amazing. Yes
sir. I think we get we make make special notes. Like Eric Breitenbrock looks very serious about getting this thing done.
He he was worried about the contractor being delayed by the ceremony.
Yeah, right. There you go. But it was good. That's that's a great station. So it's a four base station. Um Before this station goes in. The neighborhood Uh south of this station. was five miles from any station. So this fills in a gap that will bring service to the citizens a lot quicker than it did before. So It really helps out. Um, did you say we had the Moffat? To
play? I'd like to play that. They put out a a video on uh Moffat Cancer Center.
