SO WITH THAT, WE'RE GOING TO GO INTO OUR PRESENTATION BY THE NORTHEAST, FLORIDA REGIONAL COUNCIL ON MILITARY PROJECTS IN THE REGION. SO MISS PAYNE, THANK YOU FOR YOU IN TYLER COMING OUT AND BRIEF US ON THIS THIS MORNING. >> OF COURSE, IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU. MY NAME IS BETH, AM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE NORTHEAST, FLORIDA REGIONAL COUNCIL. AND HOPEFULLY SOME OF YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT THIS PROJECT. BUT IF NOT, I'M REALLY EXCITED TO SHARE OUR PROGRESS. IT'S CALLED THE NORTHEAST FLORIDA MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW. >> SO WE HAVE A TEAM OF FOLKS WORKING ON THIS AT OUR OFFICE TYLENOL AND HE'S WITH ME TODAY AND FAIR ALONG ME BECAUSE AS OUR RESILIENCY MANAGER, THERE'S A HUGE RESILIENCY COMPONENT TO THIS PROJECT. IT USED TO BE CALLED A MILITARY INSTALLATION RESILIENCY REVIEW OF THAT ACTUALLY WAS CHANGED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND ABOUT HALFWAY INTO OUR PROJECT. SO WHAT IS WE CALL IT AN M R R? SO WHAT IS THIS TYPE OF PROJECT? THIS IS A REALLY UNIQUE PROJECT AND THAT IT FOCUSES ON THE COMMUNITIES AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS THAT SURROUND OUR INSTALLATIONS. SO WHAT IS THE SUPPORT THAT THESE COMMUNITIES PROVIDE TO OUR INSTALLATION? WHAT IS THE INFRASTRUCTURE? HOW DO THEY SUPPORT THE REALLY THE MISSION OF THE INSTALLATIONS? SO WE'RE TAKING A LOOK AT THAT. THIS IS ABOUT WORK AND PROJECTS AND INFRASTRUCTURE THAT HAPPENED OUTSIDE THE FENCE LINE. SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE'S A REALLY ROBUST SET OF STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE INVOLVED IN SOMETHING LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT INVOLVES THE MILITARY COMMANDING OFFICERS AND FOLKS THEMSELVES ALONG WITH ALL SORTS OF SUPPORTING LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, UTILITIES, CONSERVATION. SO THERE'S A REALLY HUGE SET OF STAKEHOLDERS. WE DID GET THIS GRANT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR. IT'S AN OFFICE CALLED THE OFFICE OF LOCAL DEFENSE COMMUNITY COOPERATION, OLD CC FOR ABOUT A MILLION DOLLARS. AND THEN THE REGIONAL COUNCIL PUT UP THE MATCH OF $113,000. SO A FINAL PRODUCT INCLUDES A VARIETY OF REPORTS. BUT REALLY, THE CRUX OF IT IS A PRIORITIZED PROJECT LIST. AND REMEMBER, THESE PROJECTS ARE ALL IN THE COMMUNITY. SO THEY'RE ALL IN JACKSONVILLE. THEY'RE ALL IN CLAY COUNTY THAT REALLY UNLOCKS A NEW SET OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE THEY'RE LISTED IN THIS IN THIS PROJECT LIST. AND I DO NEED TO POINT OUT THAT WE'RE THE LAST REGION IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO HAVE A MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW COMPLETED AS A PRIORITY OF THE DESANTIS ADMINISTRATION TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE GRANTS. AND SO THE ENTIRE STATE OF FLORIDA, EVERY INSTALLATION IN IN THE STATE FROM SOUTH FLORIDA TO TAMPA TO THE PANHANDLE ARE ALL COVERED BY THESE, WHICH IS VERY POWERFUL FOR THE STATE OF FLORIDA AS THEY WORK TOGETHER TO PROTECT THE MILITARY AND ITS MISSION. SO IN THIS PROJECT WERE, INCLUDING THOSE THAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN. SO THAT CERTAINLY IN THE MAJORITY IN JACKSONVILLE WITH GLEN ISLAND MAY PORT NAS JACKSON AS WELL AS THE CAMP BLANDING JOINT TRAINING CENTER IN CLAY COUNTY. SO HOW ARE WE IMPLEMENTING THIS PROJECT? SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE BEEN MAYBE NOT AT OUR KICKOFF MEETING THAT WE HELD OUT AT THE BEACH, BUT WE REALLY HAVE 2 COMMITTEES THAT ARE GUIDING THIS FORWARD. SO WE HAVE A STEERING COMMITTEE AS THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE, MEETS LESS OFTEN AND IS HIGHER LEVEL POLICY AND REVIEW COMPONENT. AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE A TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE. SO THE STEERING COMMITTEE, LIKE I SAID, THERE'S THE MISSION IS ABOUT BUILDING CONSENSUS AND PROVIDING THAT HIGH-LEVEL DIRECTION. WE HAVE FANTASTIC ENGAGEMENT IN THIS PROJECT. YOU ALL KNOW WHEN YOU SET THE PRECEDENT OF THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE IS A MILITARY FRIENDLY TOWN AND IT ABSOLUTELY SHOWS WHEN YOU DO A MILITARY PROJECT IN THIS REGION. SO WE HAVE ALL THE COMMANDING OFFICERS FROM ALL THE INSTALLATIONS COUNCIL, VICE PRESIDENT PALIN SETS. AND IT ENDS. WE HAVE CLAY COUNTY REPRESENTATION, ELECTED OFFICIALS. IT REALLY RUNS THE GAMUT. SO WE HAVE A REALLY ROBUST. SO THE FOLKS THAT ADD VALUE TO THIS TO THIS WORK, WE ALSO HAVE THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE. SO THEY MEET MONTHLY AND THEY ARE THE SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS IN ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO THAT IS PUBLIC WORKS AND UTILITIES, ENVIRONMENT, CONSERVATION, LOCAL GOVERNMENT STAFF. SO WE'VE GOT PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW 30 OR 40 PEOPLE ATTEND VIRTUALLY THESE MEETINGS EVERY SINGLE MONTH. AND THEY'RE REALLY THE KIND OF THE BOOTS ON THE GROUND, SHARING THE DATA FACT CHECKING AND MAKING SURE WE'RE GETTING IT RIGHT. SO THIS IS WHAT'S BEEN DONE TODAY. THIS IS AN 18 MONTH PROJECT AND YOU'LL YOU'LL SEE A TIMELINE HERE ON THE NEXT SLIDE. BUT WE'VE DONE INSTALLATION TOURS A SPECIFIC STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS WITH ALL THE COMMANDING OFFICERS AND THEIR STAFF. WE'VE HAD ONGOING COMMITTEE MEETINGS AND WE'VE COMPLETED THE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT, WHICH IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT HAS A MILITARY FOCUS LENS. SO TAKING ALL THE GOOD DATA THAT EVERYONE IS PUT TOGETHER, YOUR CHIEF RESILIENCY OFFICER AND HER STAFF SAT ON THE COMMITTEE. SO NO DUPLICATION OF EFFORT JUST TAKING WHAT'S BEEN DONE AND USING IT FOR THIS PURPOSE. SO HERE WE ARE IN THE PROJECT TIMELINE WE STARTED IN MARCH WILL BE DONE IN SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR. SO WE'RE REALLY KIND OF RAMPING UP THE EFFORTS. OUR CONSULTANT IS JACOBSON IS DOING A FANTASTIC JOB, PUTTING THIS TOGETHER. SO MANY TALKING THROUGH OF A LITTLE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE PARTS THAT MAKE UP KIND OF WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE'RE GOING. THE FIRST IS A VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT AND I'LL BE THE FIRST ONE TO ADMIT. IF YOU HAVE A VERY TECHNICAL QUESTION, I'LL HAVE TO PASS IT ON AND GET THE ANSWER. BUT I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND IT FROM A HIGH LEVEL. SO LIKE I SAID, WE TAKE A LOT OF THAT DATA THAT'S BEEN DONE BY THE CITY. YOU GUYS HAVE EXTREMELY ROBUST VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT AND SET OF DATA. SO WE'VE USED THAT AND WE REALLY TAKE A LOOK AT HOW THAT IMPACTS THE MISSION. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, CAMP BLANDING HAS VERY DIFFERENT HAZARDS AND THINGS THAT THEY WORRY ABOUT. THE IMPACTS THEN A PLACE LIKE PORT, RIGHT. THERE'S A LOT OF WILDFIRE CONSERVATION ISSUES AT CAMP BLANDING, A PORT. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE'S EROSION AND SEA-LEVEL RISE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO THEN WE LOOK AT HOW IT IMPACTS THE MISSIONS. SO IS IT ABOUT ASSETS IS ABOUT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND AND THEY THEN BREAK DOWN THAT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE BASED ON PRIMARY AND SECONDARY. SO THERE'S A VERY SPECIFIC FOCUS ON THE MISSION OF THE INSTALLATION, WHICH WE SPENT A WHOLE MEETING DEFINING WITH A COMMANDING OFFICERS AND THEN LOOKING AT THE VULNERABILITIES IN THE HAZARDS AS THEY RELATE TO THOSE SPECIFIC MISSIONS, A GOOD EXAMPLE THAT WE PROBABLY WOULD'VE THOUGHT OF NECESSARILY IS ALL OF THE FUEL FARMS THAT MAY POOR ENDS ON HECKSCHER DRIVE. THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO THEM. THAT'S REALLY CRITICAL TO THEIR MISSIONS. SO WE HAD TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WAS WELL DEFINED AND WE UNDERSTOOD THE IMPACTS AND THE HAZARDS THAT MAY IMPACT THE BIG SHOW FARM. SO THERE WE GO. AND I THINK ANY OF THESE ARE SURPRISE TO YOU ALL WHO LIVE IN FLORIDA, THESE OF THE HAZARDS THAT WE'RE CONCERNED WITH. I THINK YOU GUYS JUST HEARD A PRESENTATION, A COMPOUND FLOODING FROM YOUR CITY. SO IS ALL OF THOSE TYPES OF THINGS THAT, AGAIN, THAT WE'RE ALSO THINKING ABOUT. BUT I THINK MORE IMPORTANTLY, WE'RE THINKING ABOUT OTHER HAZARDS THAT GO ALONG WITH US. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THIS LIST, THERE'S THINGS LIKE ENCROACHMENT, LIGHT POLLUTION, LAND DEVELOPMENT, AIRSPACE, CONGESTION THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES. THERE'S ALL THIS KIND OF OTHER SETS OF THREATS THAT MAYBE DON'T HAVE A VERY SPECIFIC PROJECT ASSOCIATE, BUT OUR POLICY ISSUES THAT WE WANT DOCUMENTED. SO THOSE CAN BE DISCUSSED AS WELL. CERTAINLY THINGS LIKE LACK OF ATTAINABLE HOUSING, LACK OF CHILDCARE. YOU KNOW, THE DIFFERENT REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS, YOU KNOW, DRONE ISSUES, SCHOOL, TRANSPORTATION. YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE THINGS THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO SOLVE WITH FUNDING FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. BUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALL AS YOU UNDERSTAND THIS AND IT'S DOCUMENTED, YOU CAN HELP YOU AND YOUR POLICY DECISIONS AS YOU THINK ABOUT THE MILITARY'S IMPACT IN JACKSONVILLE. ANOTHER BIG COMPONENT OF THIS IS MUTUAL SUPPORT. SO WHILE WE TALK ABOUT HOW THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE AND HOW THE BEACHES COMMUNITIES AND HOW CLAY COUNTY AND THOSE MUNICIPALITIES SUPPORT OUR INSTALLATION. WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN? A LOT OF IT IS MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS. YOU KNOW, WE'VE ALL HEARD OF YOU GUYS ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THE MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENT TO GO ON BETWEEN FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND HOW WE WOULD SUPPORT ACROSS COUNTIES. THE SAME IS FOR OUR MILITARY INSTALLATIONS. THERE IS A LOT OF MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS DOCUMENTED THAT HAVE THE CITY AND THE COUNTY CLAY COUNTY SUPPORT OUR INSTALLATIONS. SO PART OF THIS PROCESS WAS TO IDENTIFY WHAT THOSE WERE. BUT THEN ALSO LOOK AT THE GAP, SAYS THERE'S SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T EXIST THAT SHOULD EXIST, SAYS THERE'S SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS, BUT IT'S NOT DOCUMENTED AND WRITTEN DOWN AND PUT ON PAPER. SO WE WENT THROUGH THIS BIG EXERCISE AND IDENTIFYING THOSE. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS IS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. THERE'S I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY IT'S IT'S FIRED. EMERGENCY SERVICES CENTRIC WAS NO LAW ENFORCEMENT. WE HAVE LAND USE AND RESILIENCY ISSUES AND UTILITY. SO THERE ARE QUITE A FEW THAT EXIST. BUT AS YOU GO THROUGH THIS, THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM FOR MORE. SO THERE ARE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT SOME ADDITIONAL PARTNERSHIPS THAT COULD BE FORMED. SO THOSE ARE THE BASIS FOR SOME OF OUR RECOMMENDATIONS MOVING FORWARD. SO THAT WAS A REALLY INTERESTING EXERCISE FOR EVERYONE TO KIND OF DIG DEEP, SCRATCH YOUR HEADS, PULL OUT THEIR FILES AND REALLY LOOK LIKE WHAT LOOK FOR WHAT'S ACTUALLY BEEN DOCUMENTED VERSUS WHAT WE KNOW PEOPLE DO. SO THEN WE GET TO KIND OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS SECTIONS. SO THIS IS DONE THROUGH ADAPTATION, PLANNING INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS, AND THEY HAVE A VERY DETAILED APPROACH, OUR CONSULTANTS AND OUR TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON REALLY HOW TO GET THAT DONE. BUT I WILL TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, THE IT'S PART INNOVATION ON WHAT NEW PROJECTS CAN CAN BE DISCUSSED AND CAN BE PUT TOGETHER BASED ON THE FINDINGS. BUT IT'S ALSO COMING THROUGH EXISTING PLANS AND EXISTING CIP KNEES AND LOOKING AT PROJECTS THAT SUPPORT THESE MISSIONS AND PULLING THOSE OUT AND PUTTING THEM ON OUR PROJECT LIST. SO IT'S NOT JUST THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PROJECTS. SO THAT'S IMPORTANT. IT'S ALSO ABOUT HOW DO WE TAKE THINGS THAT ARE EXISTING PRIORITIES FOR THE CITY, JACKSONVILLE, FOR THE BEACHES, FOR CLAY COUNTY AND THEN ELEVATE THOSE PROJECTS. SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT. BUT WE'RE ALSO HAVING PARTNER CONVERSATIONS ABOUT PROJECTS THAT WOULD GO ON THIS LIST. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, WE'RE WORKING A GREAT DEAL OF FOLKS IN THE CITY. CERTAINLY JTA, AS YOU KNOW, PLAYS A HUGE ROLE IN SUPPORTING OUR MILITARY INSTALLATIONS THROUGH THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE. SO THOSE HAVE BEEN ROBUST CONVERSATIONS. AND WE'RE CONTINUING THE SAME WITH CLAY COUNTY AND CONTINUING OUR WORK WITH THE INSTALLATIONS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN PUTTING IN. I WILL TELL YOU, THERE'S SOME REALLY KIND OF INNOVATIVE IDEAS THAT ARE COMING FROM THE MILITARY SECTOR THAT MAYBE WE WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD BE INTERESTED IN. BUT BUT THEY'RE GETTING A VETTED AND THOUGHT OUT. SO THAT'S AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY. SO THIS IS WHERE WE ARE NOW. WE'VE KIND OF FINALIZING OUR MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS AND OUR RECOMMENDATIONS WERE WERE REALLY WORKING THROUGH THIS PROJECT PRIORITY LIST. THIS IS THE TIME CONSUMING AND TAKES A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS TO MAKE SURE PROJECTS ARE VETTED BECAUSE ONCE ARE VETTED AND THEY GO ON THE LIST, WE'RE ALSO GOING TO DO SOME RESEARCH INTO SOME FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND KIND OF A FUNDING PACKAGE THAT GOES ALONG WITH SOME OF THOSE PROJECTS TO REALLY KIND OF TAKE THIS FROM BEING A LIST TO THEN FIGURING OUT HOW TO MOVE THEM FORWARD AND ACTUALLY GET THEM FUNDED. THEN WE'LL HAVE A FINAL REPORT. AND THEN WE ARE WORKING CURRENTLY AT THE COUNCIL TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE BEST WAY TO TURN THIS GREAT COORDINATION, COLLABORATION INTO SOMETHING ONGOING THAT CAN WORK TOWARDS IMPLEMENTATION. SO NOT FINISH THE DOCUMENT AND PUT IT ASIDE AND THEN EVERYBODY GOES ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS. BUT HOW DO WE STAY ENGAGED IN MAKING SURE THEIR CHAMPIONS FOR THESE PROJECTS TO GET THEM FUNDED? SO THAT IS IS ON THE COUNCIL. SO LIKE I SAID TO BE DONE IN SEPTEMBER, WE'RE FIGURING OUT THAT THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION SIDE AND YOU'LL CERTAINLY HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS AND THE NET IN THE COMING MONTHS AS WE CLOSE IT OUT AND WE MOVE TOWARDS KIND OF ACTION ORIENTED PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION. EVERYTHING IS AVAILABLE ON OUR WEB SITE. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A BIG PRESENTATION IN SEPTEMBER AT THE STATEWIDE DEFENSE SUPPORT TASK FORCE MEETING THAT'S BEING HELD UP AT THE AIRPORT. SO THAT'LL BE EXCITING AND GET A LOT OF THE RIGHT PEOPLE IN THE ROOM TO HEAR ABOUT THE SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR SHARE WERE INFORMATION, BUT YOU MIGHT WANT. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. GREAT UPDATE. WE APPRECIATE THAT. I DON'T HAVE ANY ONE OF THE KEY. I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS OF MISS PITTMAN. YOU'RE IN THE QUEUE AND YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >> TO THE CHAIR. THANK YOU SO MUCH. VERY EXCITING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS PROJECT, ESPECIALLY HERE IN DUVAL COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES. ONE OF MY QUESTIONS REGARDING THE THREATS IN AND HAZARDS ARE OUR BRIDGES. YOU KNOW, WHEN I THINK ABOUT MILITARY BASE, WE ARE CONNECTED BY BRIDGES. HAVE THERE BEEN ANY THOUGHT OR ANY ASSESSMENTS REGARDING OUR BRIDGES AT THE BEACH AS IT CONNECTS TO DUVAL, SAME ON THE WEST SIDE AS WELL. AND ALSO THE EQUIPMENT, MAJOR EQUIPMENT LIKE CHIPS. AND HOW IS THAT INCLUDED IN THIS PROCESS? >> SO THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT SPECIFICALLY WE TALKED ABOUT AT THE BEACHES AND MAYPORT, BLUNT ISLAND, KIND OF THE VULNERABILITY OF THAT PART OF THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK. SO THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT DEAL. AND LUCKILY, THAT IS A WELL-STUDIED. THE TPO HAS DONE WORK OUT THERE. THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA HAS DONE WORK ON THAT. SO WE HAVE TAKEN A LOT OF THAT WORK. AND I KNOW THAT WORKED WITH YOUR PARKS DEPARTMENT. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON OUT THERE ABOUT PROTECTING A LOT OF THE FLOODWAY. SO THAT HAS BEEN INCLUDED. I DON'T THINK THE BRIDGES ARE AS BIG OF AN ISSUE OUT THERE. IT'S AN UNDERSTANDING OF IT IS A VULNERABILITY, BUT THAT'S ONLY IN A SPECIFIC KIND OF OPERATIONAL WHEN THERE'S A HURRICANE COMING IN, THE BRIDGES ARE CLOSED. WE DO HAVE DONE A LOT OF WORK ON 17 ON ROUTE 17 BY NAS JACKSONVILLE BECAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. TRANSPORTATION HAS BEEN INCLUDED WHOLESALE AND THEY'LL WILL BE, OF COURSE, RECOMMENDATIONS UP ABOUT STRENGTHENING AND SOME ALTERNATIVES TO TRY TO RELIEVE SOME OF IT. OKAY. AND INCLUDING THE SHIPS AS WE AS WE HAD A LOT OF WORK ON THE PORTS, IT'S ON OUR STEERING COMMITTEE. SO WE'VE DONE A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS ABOUT DREDGING AND ABOUT HOW THEY KEEP THEIR FACILITIES READY AND OPERATIONAL. BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S INTERESTING. WE TALK ABOUT EQUIPMENT. ONE OF THE BIGGEST I THINK THINGS THAT WILL FIND IS IT'S THE RAILROAD THAT IS EVEN ALMOST NOT MORE CRITICAL BUT OF EQUAL IMPORTANCE BECAUSE THEY DO TRANSPORT SO MUCH EQUIPMENT, THE RAIL. SO THERE ALSO WILL BE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS I BELIEVE ABOUT THE RAILWAY AS WELL. SO YES, EQUIPMENT, KINDA FROM ALL SIDES, OK, GREAT. >> THANK YOU. THAT'S WHERE JONES. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR AND THANK YOU FOR THE CHANCE. THANK YOU FOR THE WORK THAT YOU DO WITH THE REGIONAL COUNCIL AND OF WORK WITH YOU EXTENSIVELY. THE QUESTION IN MIND THAT I HAVE I KNOW IN MY DISTRICT, ONE OF THE FEW ONLY 2 DISTRICTS IN THE KHON, THE COUNCIL THAT HAS A MILITARY INSTALLATION IN WHICH IS IN AS JAX. ONE OF THE THINGS WE WERE ABLE TO DO UNDER THE LAST COMMAND, JUST KIND OF PUTTING IT FORWARD AND WONDERING IF THERE ARE MORE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO IN THIS SPACE. BUT WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE OVER THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE. >> THE >> MAINTENANCE OF THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS THAT ARE THROUGHOUT THE BASE, WHICH IS A GOOD THING FOR THE PENTAGON. BUT IT ALSO BRINGS SO MANY GENERATOR FOR THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE. ARE THERE OTHER OPPORTUNITIES AND IF NOT, IF THAT HASN'T BEEN EXPLORED? I HOPE THAT I DO HOPE TO ATTEND AT LEAST ONE OF YOUR MEETINGS COMING UP SOON, BUT THAT WE EXPLORE THOSE OTHER POSSIBILITIES THAT ARE REVENUE GENERATORS FOR THE CITY, BUT ALSO ALLOWS THEM TO FOCUS ON KEEPING US SAFE AND WE CAN'T HANDLE THE THINGS THAT WE DO GOOD LIKE MUNICIPAL GOVERNANCE OR HANDLING TRAFFIC LIGHTS. >> CORRECT. I DO THINK THAT THOSE CONVERSATIONS ARE ONGOING. I THINK A LOT OF THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT WITH THE JTA ABOUT SOME OF THE MAINTENANCE OF SOME THINGS. SO, YES, THOSE THINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY INCLUDED BECAUSE RIGHT, IT ONLY MAKES SENSE TO TAG ALONG WITH YORK SPECIALLY IN THE CITY, WHICH IS SUCH A, YOU KNOW, A LARGE CITY WITH SO MANY RESOURCES. SO IT ABSOLUTELY DOES MAKE SENSE. SO THAT IS A PART OF THE CONVERSATION ANSWER. >> THANK YOU. NOTES OF THE KEY I HAD ONE QUESTION IS KINGS BAY, OBVIOUSLY KINGS BASED IN GEORGIA. BUT THAT'S NOT PART OF THIS STUDY. WAS THERE ANY THOUGHT INTO CONSIDERING IT ALWAYS EXAMPLE STATION AT BOTH NAS JAX IN KINGS BAY WHILE LIVING IN THE SAME HOUSE? A LOT OF OUR CITIZENS ARE STATIONED UP THERE, BUT STILL LIVE IN DUVAL COUNTY. AND I KNOW THE NAVY. I MEAN, THE NAVY CALLS IT A TRY BASE AREA. SO JUST WONDERING AND AGAIN, I REALIZE IT'S IN A DIFFERENT STATE. BUT JUST WONDERING IF THAT WAS PART OF THE CONVERSATION LEAVE, THEY'RE COVERED BY. >> INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW ALREADY BELIEVE THEY'VE HAVE ONE DONE. BUT RIGHT, IT IS THE KIND OF A LITTLE HANKY WITH WHAT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE, HOW THEY KIND OF CLASSIFY SOME OLLIE. WE COULDN'T COVER THE COAST GUARD SECTOR. THAT'S SO IMPORTANT HERE BECAUSE THEY'RE UNDER HOMELAND SECURITY AND NOT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. WE'VE KIND OF DONE OUR BEST TO STILL INCORPORATE SOME OF THOSE ITEMS. >> BUT CERTAINLY IT IT DOES BEAR MENTIONING THAT WE SHOULD BE AT LEAST LOOKING AT THE KINGS BAY MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY THINGS THAT WE CAN GLEAN FROM FROM THAT TO A PLOT ARE SO. >> OKAY. YEAH. I KNOW THE BASE COMMANDERS WORKED TOGETHER WELL, BUT IT MAKES SENSE THAT WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS STAY WITHIN THE STATE, I GUESS, RIGHT? RIGHT. I MEAN, WE'RE GOING TO DO OUR BEST TO TRY TO NOW COLLECTIVELY ONCE. >> WE FINISH HERE IN NORTHEAST FLORIDA, THE FINAL PIECES ARE I'M BEING DONE FOR THE PINE CASTLE BOMBING COMPLEX RANGE, WHICH IS UNLIKE OCALA, PUTNAM LAKE COUNTY AND ALSO BUG SPRING, WHICH IS A SPRING THAT'S USED TO CALIBRATE NAVY SONAR. SO ONCE THAT WRAPS UP, WE'LL HAVE THE STATEWIDE INITIATIVE AND WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO WORK TOGETHER TO HAVE THE STATE PRIORITIZE FOR THEIR FUNDING, THE PROJECTS THAT ARE LISTED A MILITARY INSTALLATION READING THIS REVIEW. SO WE COLLECTIVELY AS REGIONAL COUNCILS, ALL THE REGIONAL COUNCILS IN THE STATE ARE THE ONES THAT HAVE DONE ALL THESE ARE OURS. SO WE'RE GOING TO KIND OF KEEP PUSHING AND KEEP WORKING TO KEEP GETTING THESE THINGS FUNDED WEATHER LOCALLY OR STATE OR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. >> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. I HAVE NO ONE ELSE IN THE QUEUE SAY THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT TODAY. WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THAT. A FINAL REPORT LATER IN THE YEAR. YEAH. THANK YOU. THANK YOU TO MY COLLEAGUES. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANYTHING BEFORE WE ADJOURN, THEN WE ARE ADJOURNED. THANK YOU

SO WITH THAT, WE'RE GOING TO GO INTO OUR PRESENTATION BY THE NORTHEAST, FLORIDA REGIONAL COUNCIL ON MILITARY PROJECTS IN THE REGION. SO MISS PAYNE, THANK YOU FOR YOU IN TYLER COMING OUT AND BRIEF US ON THIS THIS MORNING. >> OF COURSE, IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU. MY NAME IS BETH, AM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE NORTHEAST, FLORIDA REGIONAL COUNCIL. AND HOPEFULLY SOME OF YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT THIS PROJECT. BUT IF NOT, I'M REALLY EXCITED TO SHARE OUR PROGRESS. IT'S CALLED THE NORTHEAST FLORIDA MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW. >> SO WE HAVE A TEAM OF FOLKS WORKING ON THIS AT OUR OFFICE TYLENOL AND HE'S WITH ME TODAY AND FAIR ALONG ME BECAUSE AS OUR RESILIENCY MANAGER, THERE'S A HUGE RESILIENCY COMPONENT TO THIS PROJECT. IT USED TO BE CALLED A MILITARY INSTALLATION RESILIENCY REVIEW OF THAT ACTUALLY WAS CHANGED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND ABOUT HALFWAY INTO OUR PROJECT. SO WHAT IS WE CALL IT AN M R R? SO WHAT IS THIS TYPE OF PROJECT? THIS IS A REALLY UNIQUE PROJECT AND THAT IT FOCUSES ON THE COMMUNITIES AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS THAT SURROUND OUR INSTALLATIONS. SO WHAT IS THE SUPPORT THAT THESE COMMUNITIES PROVIDE TO OUR INSTALLATION? WHAT IS THE INFRASTRUCTURE? HOW DO THEY SUPPORT THE REALLY THE MISSION OF THE INSTALLATIONS? SO WE'RE TAKING A LOOK AT THAT. THIS IS ABOUT WORK AND PROJECTS AND INFRASTRUCTURE THAT HAPPENED OUTSIDE THE FENCE LINE. SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE'S A REALLY ROBUST SET OF STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE INVOLVED IN SOMETHING LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT INVOLVES THE MILITARY COMMANDING OFFICERS AND FOLKS THEMSELVES ALONG WITH ALL SORTS OF SUPPORTING LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, UTILITIES, CONSERVATION. SO THERE'S A REALLY HUGE SET OF STAKEHOLDERS. WE DID GET THIS GRANT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR. IT'S AN OFFICE CALLED THE OFFICE OF LOCAL DEFENSE COMMUNITY COOPERATION, OLD CC FOR ABOUT A MILLION DOLLARS. AND THEN THE REGIONAL COUNCIL PUT UP THE MATCH OF $113,000. SO A FINAL PRODUCT INCLUDES A VARIETY OF REPORTS. BUT REALLY, THE CRUX OF IT IS A PRIORITIZED PROJECT LIST. AND REMEMBER, THESE PROJECTS ARE ALL IN THE COMMUNITY. SO THEY'RE ALL IN JACKSONVILLE. THEY'RE ALL IN CLAY COUNTY THAT REALLY UNLOCKS A NEW SET OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE THEY'RE LISTED IN THIS IN THIS PROJECT LIST. AND I DO NEED TO POINT OUT THAT WE'RE THE LAST REGION IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO HAVE A MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW COMPLETED AS A PRIORITY OF THE DESANTIS ADMINISTRATION TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE GRANTS. AND SO THE ENTIRE STATE OF FLORIDA, EVERY INSTALLATION IN IN THE STATE FROM SOUTH FLORIDA TO TAMPA TO THE PANHANDLE ARE ALL COVERED BY THESE, WHICH IS VERY POWERFUL FOR THE STATE OF FLORIDA AS THEY WORK TOGETHER TO PROTECT THE MILITARY AND ITS MISSION. SO IN THIS PROJECT WERE, INCLUDING THOSE THAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN. SO THAT CERTAINLY IN THE MAJORITY IN JACKSONVILLE WITH GLEN ISLAND MAY PORT NAS JACKSON AS WELL AS THE CAMP BLANDING JOINT TRAINING CENTER IN CLAY COUNTY. SO HOW ARE WE IMPLEMENTING THIS PROJECT? SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE BEEN MAYBE NOT AT OUR KICKOFF MEETING THAT WE HELD OUT AT THE BEACH, BUT WE REALLY HAVE 2 COMMITTEES THAT ARE GUIDING THIS FORWARD. SO WE HAVE A STEERING COMMITTEE AS THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE, MEETS LESS OFTEN AND IS HIGHER LEVEL POLICY AND REVIEW COMPONENT. AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE A TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE. SO THE STEERING COMMITTEE, LIKE I SAID, THERE'S THE MISSION IS ABOUT BUILDING CONSENSUS AND PROVIDING THAT HIGH-LEVEL DIRECTION. WE HAVE FANTASTIC ENGAGEMENT IN THIS PROJECT. YOU ALL KNOW WHEN YOU SET THE PRECEDENT OF THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE IS A MILITARY FRIENDLY TOWN AND IT ABSOLUTELY SHOWS WHEN YOU DO A MILITARY PROJECT IN THIS REGION. SO WE HAVE ALL THE COMMANDING OFFICERS FROM ALL THE INSTALLATIONS COUNCIL, VICE PRESIDENT PALIN SETS. AND IT ENDS. WE HAVE CLAY COUNTY REPRESENTATION, ELECTED OFFICIALS. IT REALLY RUNS THE GAMUT. SO WE HAVE A REALLY ROBUST. SO THE FOLKS THAT ADD VALUE TO THIS TO THIS WORK, WE ALSO HAVE THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE. SO THEY MEET MONTHLY AND THEY ARE THE SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS IN ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO THAT IS PUBLIC WORKS AND UTILITIES, ENVIRONMENT, CONSERVATION, LOCAL GOVERNMENT STAFF. SO WE'VE GOT PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW 30 OR 40 PEOPLE ATTEND VIRTUALLY THESE MEETINGS EVERY SINGLE MONTH. AND THEY'RE REALLY THE KIND OF THE BOOTS ON THE GROUND, SHARING THE DATA FACT CHECKING AND MAKING SURE WE'RE GETTING IT RIGHT. SO THIS IS WHAT'S BEEN DONE TODAY. THIS IS AN 18 MONTH PROJECT AND YOU'LL YOU'LL SEE A TIMELINE HERE ON THE NEXT SLIDE. BUT WE'VE DONE INSTALLATION TOURS A SPECIFIC STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS WITH ALL THE COMMANDING OFFICERS AND THEIR STAFF. WE'VE HAD ONGOING COMMITTEE MEETINGS AND WE'VE COMPLETED THE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT, WHICH IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT HAS A MILITARY FOCUS LENS. SO TAKING ALL THE GOOD DATA THAT EVERYONE IS PUT TOGETHER, YOUR CHIEF RESILIENCY OFFICER AND HER STAFF SAT ON THE COMMITTEE. SO NO DUPLICATION OF EFFORT JUST TAKING WHAT'S BEEN DONE AND USING IT FOR THIS PURPOSE. SO HERE WE ARE IN THE PROJECT TIMELINE WE STARTED IN MARCH WILL BE DONE IN SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR. SO WE'RE REALLY KIND OF RAMPING UP THE EFFORTS. OUR CONSULTANT IS JACOBSON IS DOING A FANTASTIC JOB, PUTTING THIS TOGETHER. SO MANY TALKING THROUGH OF A LITTLE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE PARTS THAT MAKE UP KIND OF WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE'RE GOING. THE FIRST IS A VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT AND I'LL BE THE FIRST ONE TO ADMIT. IF YOU HAVE A VERY TECHNICAL QUESTION, I'LL HAVE TO PASS IT ON AND GET THE ANSWER. BUT I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND IT FROM A HIGH LEVEL. SO LIKE I SAID, WE TAKE A LOT OF THAT DATA THAT'S BEEN DONE BY THE CITY. YOU GUYS HAVE EXTREMELY ROBUST VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT AND SET OF DATA. SO WE'VE USED THAT AND WE REALLY TAKE A LOOK AT HOW THAT IMPACTS THE MISSION. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, CAMP BLANDING HAS VERY DIFFERENT HAZARDS AND THINGS THAT THEY WORRY ABOUT. THE IMPACTS THEN A PLACE LIKE PORT, RIGHT. THERE'S A LOT OF WILDFIRE CONSERVATION ISSUES AT CAMP BLANDING, A PORT. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE'S EROSION AND SEA-LEVEL RISE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO THEN WE LOOK AT HOW IT IMPACTS THE MISSIONS. SO IS IT ABOUT ASSETS IS ABOUT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND AND THEY THEN BREAK DOWN THAT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE BASED ON PRIMARY AND SECONDARY. SO THERE'S A VERY SPECIFIC FOCUS ON THE MISSION OF THE INSTALLATION, WHICH WE SPENT A WHOLE MEETING DEFINING WITH A COMMANDING OFFICERS AND THEN LOOKING AT THE VULNERABILITIES IN THE HAZARDS AS THEY RELATE TO THOSE SPECIFIC MISSIONS, A GOOD EXAMPLE THAT WE PROBABLY WOULD'VE THOUGHT OF NECESSARILY IS ALL OF THE FUEL FARMS THAT MAY POOR ENDS ON HECKSCHER DRIVE. THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO THEM. THAT'S REALLY CRITICAL TO THEIR MISSIONS. SO WE HAD TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WAS WELL DEFINED AND WE UNDERSTOOD THE IMPACTS AND THE HAZARDS THAT MAY IMPACT THE BIG SHOW FARM. SO THERE WE GO. AND I THINK ANY OF THESE ARE SURPRISE TO YOU ALL WHO LIVE IN FLORIDA, THESE OF THE HAZARDS THAT WE'RE CONCERNED WITH. I THINK YOU GUYS JUST HEARD A PRESENTATION, A COMPOUND FLOODING FROM YOUR CITY. SO IS ALL OF THOSE TYPES OF THINGS THAT, AGAIN, THAT WE'RE ALSO THINKING ABOUT. BUT I THINK MORE IMPORTANTLY, WE'RE THINKING ABOUT OTHER HAZARDS THAT GO ALONG WITH US. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THIS LIST, THERE'S THINGS LIKE ENCROACHMENT, LIGHT POLLUTION, LAND DEVELOPMENT, AIRSPACE, CONGESTION THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES. THERE'S ALL THIS KIND OF OTHER SETS OF THREATS THAT MAYBE DON'T HAVE A VERY SPECIFIC PROJECT ASSOCIATE, BUT OUR POLICY ISSUES THAT WE WANT DOCUMENTED. SO THOSE CAN BE DISCUSSED AS WELL. CERTAINLY THINGS LIKE LACK OF ATTAINABLE HOUSING, LACK OF CHILDCARE. YOU KNOW, THE DIFFERENT REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS, YOU KNOW, DRONE ISSUES, SCHOOL, TRANSPORTATION. YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE THINGS THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO SOLVE WITH FUNDING FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. BUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALL AS YOU UNDERSTAND THIS AND IT'S DOCUMENTED, YOU CAN HELP YOU AND YOUR POLICY DECISIONS AS YOU THINK ABOUT THE MILITARY'S IMPACT IN JACKSONVILLE. ANOTHER BIG COMPONENT OF THIS IS MUTUAL SUPPORT. SO WHILE WE TALK ABOUT HOW THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE AND HOW THE BEACHES COMMUNITIES AND HOW CLAY COUNTY AND THOSE MUNICIPALITIES SUPPORT OUR INSTALLATION. WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN? A LOT OF IT IS MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS. YOU KNOW, WE'VE ALL HEARD OF YOU GUYS ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THE MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENT TO GO ON BETWEEN FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND HOW WE WOULD SUPPORT ACROSS COUNTIES. THE SAME IS FOR OUR MILITARY INSTALLATIONS. THERE IS A LOT OF MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS DOCUMENTED THAT HAVE THE CITY AND THE COUNTY CLAY COUNTY SUPPORT OUR INSTALLATIONS. SO PART OF THIS PROCESS WAS TO IDENTIFY WHAT THOSE WERE. BUT THEN ALSO LOOK AT THE GAP, SAYS THERE'S SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T EXIST THAT SHOULD EXIST, SAYS THERE'S SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS, BUT IT'S NOT DOCUMENTED AND WRITTEN DOWN AND PUT ON PAPER. SO WE WENT THROUGH THIS BIG EXERCISE AND IDENTIFYING THOSE. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS IS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. THERE'S I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY IT'S IT'S FIRED. EMERGENCY SERVICES CENTRIC WAS NO LAW ENFORCEMENT. WE HAVE LAND USE AND RESILIENCY ISSUES AND UTILITY. SO THERE ARE QUITE A FEW THAT EXIST. BUT AS YOU GO THROUGH THIS, THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM FOR MORE. SO THERE ARE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT SOME ADDITIONAL PARTNERSHIPS THAT COULD BE FORMED. SO THOSE ARE THE BASIS FOR SOME OF OUR RECOMMENDATIONS MOVING FORWARD. SO THAT WAS A REALLY INTERESTING EXERCISE FOR EVERYONE TO KIND OF DIG DEEP, SCRATCH YOUR HEADS, PULL OUT THEIR FILES AND REALLY LOOK LIKE WHAT LOOK FOR WHAT'S ACTUALLY BEEN DOCUMENTED VERSUS WHAT WE KNOW PEOPLE DO. SO THEN WE GET TO KIND OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS SECTIONS. SO THIS IS DONE THROUGH ADAPTATION, PLANNING INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS, AND THEY HAVE A VERY DETAILED APPROACH, OUR CONSULTANTS AND OUR TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON REALLY HOW TO GET THAT DONE. BUT I WILL TELL YOU, YOU KNOW, THE IT'S PART INNOVATION ON WHAT NEW PROJECTS CAN CAN BE DISCUSSED AND CAN BE PUT TOGETHER BASED ON THE FINDINGS. BUT IT'S ALSO COMING THROUGH EXISTING PLANS AND EXISTING CIP KNEES AND LOOKING AT PROJECTS THAT SUPPORT THESE MISSIONS AND PULLING THOSE OUT AND PUTTING THEM ON OUR PROJECT LIST. SO IT'S NOT JUST THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PROJECTS. SO THAT'S IMPORTANT. IT'S ALSO ABOUT HOW DO WE TAKE THINGS THAT ARE EXISTING PRIORITIES FOR THE CITY, JACKSONVILLE, FOR THE BEACHES, FOR CLAY COUNTY AND THEN ELEVATE THOSE PROJECTS. SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT. BUT WE'RE ALSO HAVING PARTNER CONVERSATIONS ABOUT PROJECTS THAT WOULD GO ON THIS LIST. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, WE'RE WORKING A GREAT DEAL OF FOLKS IN THE CITY. CERTAINLY JTA, AS YOU KNOW, PLAYS A HUGE ROLE IN SUPPORTING OUR MILITARY INSTALLATIONS THROUGH THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE. SO THOSE HAVE BEEN ROBUST CONVERSATIONS. AND WE'RE CONTINUING THE SAME WITH CLAY COUNTY AND CONTINUING OUR WORK WITH THE INSTALLATIONS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN PUTTING IN. I WILL TELL YOU, THERE'S SOME REALLY KIND OF INNOVATIVE IDEAS THAT ARE COMING FROM THE MILITARY SECTOR THAT MAYBE WE WOULDN'T HAVE THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD BE INTERESTED IN. BUT BUT THEY'RE GETTING A VETTED AND THOUGHT OUT. SO THAT'S AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY. SO THIS IS WHERE WE ARE NOW. WE'VE KIND OF FINALIZING OUR MUTUAL SUPPORT AGREEMENTS AND OUR RECOMMENDATIONS WERE WERE REALLY WORKING THROUGH THIS PROJECT PRIORITY LIST. THIS IS THE TIME CONSUMING AND TAKES A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS TO MAKE SURE PROJECTS ARE VETTED BECAUSE ONCE ARE VETTED AND THEY GO ON THE LIST, WE'RE ALSO GOING TO DO SOME RESEARCH INTO SOME FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND KIND OF A FUNDING PACKAGE THAT GOES ALONG WITH SOME OF THOSE PROJECTS TO REALLY KIND OF TAKE THIS FROM BEING A LIST TO THEN FIGURING OUT HOW TO MOVE THEM FORWARD AND ACTUALLY GET THEM FUNDED. THEN WE'LL HAVE A FINAL REPORT. AND THEN WE ARE WORKING CURRENTLY AT THE COUNCIL TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE BEST WAY TO TURN THIS GREAT COORDINATION, COLLABORATION INTO SOMETHING ONGOING THAT CAN WORK TOWARDS IMPLEMENTATION. SO NOT FINISH THE DOCUMENT AND PUT IT ASIDE AND THEN EVERYBODY GOES ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS. BUT HOW DO WE STAY ENGAGED IN MAKING SURE THEIR CHAMPIONS FOR THESE PROJECTS TO GET THEM FUNDED? SO THAT IS IS ON THE COUNCIL. SO LIKE I SAID TO BE DONE IN SEPTEMBER, WE'RE FIGURING OUT THAT THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION SIDE AND YOU'LL CERTAINLY HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS AND THE NET IN THE COMING MONTHS AS WE CLOSE IT OUT AND WE MOVE TOWARDS KIND OF ACTION ORIENTED PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION. EVERYTHING IS AVAILABLE ON OUR WEB SITE. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A BIG PRESENTATION IN SEPTEMBER AT THE STATEWIDE DEFENSE SUPPORT TASK FORCE MEETING THAT'S BEING HELD UP AT THE AIRPORT. SO THAT'LL BE EXCITING AND GET A LOT OF THE RIGHT PEOPLE IN THE ROOM TO HEAR ABOUT THE SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR SHARE WERE INFORMATION, BUT YOU MIGHT WANT. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. GREAT UPDATE. WE APPRECIATE THAT. I DON'T HAVE ANY ONE OF THE KEY. I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS OF MISS PITTMAN. YOU'RE IN THE QUEUE AND YOU ARE RECOGNIZED. >> TO THE CHAIR. THANK YOU SO MUCH. VERY EXCITING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS PROJECT, ESPECIALLY HERE IN DUVAL COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES. ONE OF MY QUESTIONS REGARDING THE THREATS IN AND HAZARDS ARE OUR BRIDGES. YOU KNOW, WHEN I THINK ABOUT MILITARY BASE, WE ARE CONNECTED BY BRIDGES. HAVE THERE BEEN ANY THOUGHT OR ANY ASSESSMENTS REGARDING OUR BRIDGES AT THE BEACH AS IT CONNECTS TO DUVAL, SAME ON THE WEST SIDE AS WELL. AND ALSO THE EQUIPMENT, MAJOR EQUIPMENT LIKE CHIPS. AND HOW IS THAT INCLUDED IN THIS PROCESS? >> SO THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT SPECIFICALLY WE TALKED ABOUT AT THE BEACHES AND MAYPORT, BLUNT ISLAND, KIND OF THE VULNERABILITY OF THAT PART OF THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK. SO THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT DEAL. AND LUCKILY, THAT IS A WELL-STUDIED. THE TPO HAS DONE WORK OUT THERE. THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA HAS DONE WORK ON THAT. SO WE HAVE TAKEN A LOT OF THAT WORK. AND I KNOW THAT WORKED WITH YOUR PARKS DEPARTMENT. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON OUT THERE ABOUT PROTECTING A LOT OF THE FLOODWAY. SO THAT HAS BEEN INCLUDED. I DON'T THINK THE BRIDGES ARE AS BIG OF AN ISSUE OUT THERE. IT'S AN UNDERSTANDING OF IT IS A VULNERABILITY, BUT THAT'S ONLY IN A SPECIFIC KIND OF OPERATIONAL WHEN THERE'S A HURRICANE COMING IN, THE BRIDGES ARE CLOSED. WE DO HAVE DONE A LOT OF WORK ON 17 ON ROUTE 17 BY NAS JACKSONVILLE BECAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. TRANSPORTATION HAS BEEN INCLUDED WHOLESALE AND THEY'LL WILL BE, OF COURSE, RECOMMENDATIONS UP ABOUT STRENGTHENING AND SOME ALTERNATIVES TO TRY TO RELIEVE SOME OF IT. OKAY. AND INCLUDING THE SHIPS AS WE AS WE HAD A LOT OF WORK ON THE PORTS, IT'S ON OUR STEERING COMMITTEE. SO WE'VE DONE A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS ABOUT DREDGING AND ABOUT HOW THEY KEEP THEIR FACILITIES READY AND OPERATIONAL. BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S INTERESTING. WE TALK ABOUT EQUIPMENT. ONE OF THE BIGGEST I THINK THINGS THAT WILL FIND IS IT'S THE RAILROAD THAT IS EVEN ALMOST NOT MORE CRITICAL BUT OF EQUAL IMPORTANCE BECAUSE THEY DO TRANSPORT SO MUCH EQUIPMENT, THE RAIL. SO THERE ALSO WILL BE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS I BELIEVE ABOUT THE RAILWAY AS WELL. SO YES, EQUIPMENT, KINDA FROM ALL SIDES, OK, GREAT. >> THANK YOU. THAT'S WHERE JONES. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR AND THANK YOU FOR THE CHANCE. THANK YOU FOR THE WORK THAT YOU DO WITH THE REGIONAL COUNCIL AND OF WORK WITH YOU EXTENSIVELY. THE QUESTION IN MIND THAT I HAVE I KNOW IN MY DISTRICT, ONE OF THE FEW ONLY 2 DISTRICTS IN THE KHON, THE COUNCIL THAT HAS A MILITARY INSTALLATION IN WHICH IS IN AS JAX. ONE OF THE THINGS WE WERE ABLE TO DO UNDER THE LAST COMMAND, JUST KIND OF PUTTING IT FORWARD AND WONDERING IF THERE ARE MORE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO IN THIS SPACE. BUT WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE OVER THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE. >> THE >> MAINTENANCE OF THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS THAT ARE THROUGHOUT THE BASE, WHICH IS A GOOD THING FOR THE PENTAGON. BUT IT ALSO BRINGS SO MANY GENERATOR FOR THE CITY OF JACKSONVILLE. ARE THERE OTHER OPPORTUNITIES AND IF NOT, IF THAT HASN'T BEEN EXPLORED? I HOPE THAT I DO HOPE TO ATTEND AT LEAST ONE OF YOUR MEETINGS COMING UP SOON, BUT THAT WE EXPLORE THOSE OTHER POSSIBILITIES THAT ARE REVENUE GENERATORS FOR THE CITY, BUT ALSO ALLOWS THEM TO FOCUS ON KEEPING US SAFE AND WE CAN'T HANDLE THE THINGS THAT WE DO GOOD LIKE MUNICIPAL GOVERNANCE OR HANDLING TRAFFIC LIGHTS. >> CORRECT. I DO THINK THAT THOSE CONVERSATIONS ARE ONGOING. I THINK A LOT OF THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT WITH THE JTA ABOUT SOME OF THE MAINTENANCE OF SOME THINGS. SO, YES, THOSE THINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY INCLUDED BECAUSE RIGHT, IT ONLY MAKES SENSE TO TAG ALONG WITH YORK SPECIALLY IN THE CITY, WHICH IS SUCH A, YOU KNOW, A LARGE CITY WITH SO MANY RESOURCES. SO IT ABSOLUTELY DOES MAKE SENSE. SO THAT IS A PART OF THE CONVERSATION ANSWER. >> THANK YOU. NOTES OF THE KEY I HAD ONE QUESTION IS KINGS BAY, OBVIOUSLY KINGS BASED IN GEORGIA. BUT THAT'S NOT PART OF THIS STUDY. WAS THERE ANY THOUGHT INTO CONSIDERING IT ALWAYS EXAMPLE STATION AT BOTH NAS JAX IN KINGS BAY WHILE LIVING IN THE SAME HOUSE? A LOT OF OUR CITIZENS ARE STATIONED UP THERE, BUT STILL LIVE IN DUVAL COUNTY. AND I KNOW THE NAVY. I MEAN, THE NAVY CALLS IT A TRY BASE AREA. SO JUST WONDERING AND AGAIN, I REALIZE IT'S IN A DIFFERENT STATE. BUT JUST WONDERING IF THAT WAS PART OF THE CONVERSATION LEAVE, THEY'RE COVERED BY. >> INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW ALREADY BELIEVE THEY'VE HAVE ONE DONE. BUT RIGHT, IT IS THE KIND OF A LITTLE HANKY WITH WHAT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE, HOW THEY KIND OF CLASSIFY SOME OLLIE. WE COULDN'T COVER THE COAST GUARD SECTOR. THAT'S SO IMPORTANT HERE BECAUSE THEY'RE UNDER HOMELAND SECURITY AND NOT THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. WE'VE KIND OF DONE OUR BEST TO STILL INCORPORATE SOME OF THOSE ITEMS. >> BUT CERTAINLY IT IT DOES BEAR MENTIONING THAT WE SHOULD BE AT LEAST LOOKING AT THE KINGS BAY MILITARY INSTALLATION READINESS REVIEW TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY THINGS THAT WE CAN GLEAN FROM FROM THAT TO A PLOT ARE SO. >> OKAY. YEAH. I KNOW THE BASE COM
