Petitions, blue law, and community cleanup

35:53We are ahead of schedule, so we will go to miscellaneous business until we do have a time certain at eleven, so we'll get as far as we can and bounce back to that and go back to miscellaneous business after R one is heard. So Commissioner Oakley, we'll start with you, sir.

36:13Yep, just uh a couple things. You'll notice in the day as we put up their petitions in there, so facilities uh took care of that for us and it made it very good and uh amical to our surroundings here in the historic courthouse and they did a great job. So certainly appreciate our staff's work and putting these up right away. So um I think that's all I have.

36:39Yeah. Thank you, Commissioner. Commissioner Starkey, do you have anything today?

36:43Uh I do and I'm um hoping my assistant Morgan is listening because she was supposed to send me something on one of my items. But um I did want to bring up Uh something called the blue law. Um a lot of counties in the state and around the country have kind of moved and cities moved away from this kind of old fashioned law, which um in Pasco County you cannot buy any alcohol on Sunday before eleven. And um I

37:13I've heard from many constituents, and I've been in publics myself when people are standing around, say they're going out voting. or scalloping and they wanna take some beer or something with them and they they can't They can't purchase it because we have this rule for eleven that you can't buy it until eleven. Or you're going out for Sunday brunch and you can't have a mimosa or or purchase groceries for the week. So I want to uh suggest that we have the county attorney um bring

37:44us back an amendment to the ordinance to um change that time um to uh a time that we think might be appropriate, maybe seven in the morning.

37:57were uh I'll I'll defer there to

38:01Well I would uh I mean it if the idea is that you'd want to treat Sunday the same way you're treating the rest of the weekdays, that's what I would do. Is so the so what your hours of alcohol sales for

38:16every day of the week would also apply to Sun Sunday wouldn't have special hours, basically.

38:20Well that would be my recommendation.

38:23Any discussion?

38:24Or would you just like County Attorney to bring back something for us to review?

38:29All right, great. Thanks.

38:31We can we can put this on the list uh and it would be it would come back to you for introduction so that before we advertised the board was happy with it. Yeah.

38:40Thank you. I um Uh Morgan was researching this, but um I uh had a request last year from Tad to do a community cleanup. And because of COVID, apparently it was pushed off. And now they're scheduled for one of the first weekends in October. And I had thought we had already done the holiday lakes, but it was the TAT one and it got pushed off. Um So

39:11we as commissioners are allowed one cleanup per fiscal year. And so uh if you would um allow me to encumber the money for TAT in this year's cleanup. Since they're doing it a one week after our new fiscal year starts and then we're gonna do the Holiday Lakes one in October, I think I may need board approval for that.

39:36Um you're just switching is what you're doing?

39:38No, I just um the TAT one was scheduled for for this year but was moved to October The first weekend in October and I would be doing two in one fiscal year. I just wanna make sure that the TAP funding gets allocated.

39:54You won't be too new

39:55fiscal year

39:56new fiscal year starts in October.

39:58Right, and that would be the Holiday Lakes one that we're also gonna do.

40:00Oh, you just wanna m you just wanna move it down the road.

40:03One in in uh twenty twenty was cancelled.

40:06Commissioner Weightman. I'd say if it was allocated for this past year, if you just continue the funds over till funded and then you can do the right-of-way.

40:16I apparently I might need board approval for that. Because they you know they do the sweep. They take all the money. Please don't take my tap money. We

40:25we can make sure that rolls forward. Okay. Yeah, I don't think you need approval.

40:29All right, so then I uh would uh ask for board approval to um conduct a uh community cleanup for the Holiday Lakes community.

40:36You don't need it, you don't need you don't need our approval for that. You already have it.

40:41general.

40:42We already that we already made this decision in the past. It's budget. Okay. But thanks for asking, but you're good.

40:49All right.

40:52And let's see if there's anything else. I guess someone else is gonna talk about the Wiregrass Sports Complex. Yeah, I'll bring that

40:58up.

40:59And okay, I think that's all I have that I remember for right now. I reserved the ability to come through. We got some of these kind of quick.
