>> Mayor Freaney: GOOD EVENING, WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER 17, 2026 CITY COUNCIL MEETING. WE'RE GOING TO BEGIN WITH OUR INVOCATION AND PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. >> LET'S BEGIN BY BEGINNING WITH A BRIEF MOMENT OF SILENCE. [ MOMENT OF SILENCE ] >> I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. >> Mayor Freaney: OKAY. THIS IS THIS COMMISSION'S THIRD MEETING OF THE DAY. IF AT ANY TIME YOU THINK WE'RE SLAP HAPPY, IT COULD BE. IF WE REQUEST HAVE ALL OF YOU COME UP FOR THE JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD. I CAME AWAY UNDERSTANDING THAT EVEN THOUGH THE SCHOOLS ARE NOT TOUCHED BY AMENDMENT 3, BUT THEY ARE. MONEY WILL GO AWAY, YOU DO A LOT OF THINGS WITH SCHOOL READINESS. YOU'LL TELL US ABOUT THAT. OF THERE'S A HUGE IMPACT IN THAT. >> 80th AN VERSEPY. 80 YEARS OF DOING GREAT THINGS. JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD OF PINELLAS COUNTY. IN THE EARLY 1940s, FEW ALTERNATIVES EXISTED FOR TROUBLED AND DEPENDENT CHILDREN IN PINELLAS COUNTY, OTHER THAN ADULT JAIL. AS ATTORNEY LEONARD COOPERMAN DRAFTED LEGISLATION SUPPORTED BY THE PINELLAS COUNTY LEGISLATIVE DESIGNATION TO KREE A TAXING DISTRICT TO GUARD THE RIGHTS AND NEEDS OF CHILDREN. SENATE BILL SPONSORED BY HENRY IS BAYNARD. ON NOVEMBER 5th, 1946, PINELLAS COUNTY CITIZENS RATIFIED THE JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD ACT, CREATING THE NATION'S FIRST INDEPENDENT BOARD, DEDICATING TO IMPROVING THE LIVES AND FUTURES OF CHILDREN. IN 1947 THEY ADOPTED THEIR FIRST BUDGET THAT SERVED ABOUT 1500 CHILDREN JWB STRENGTHS OUR COMMUNITY WITH PROGRAMS ACROSS 49 AGENCIES. INCLUDING CRADLE TO CAREER CONVENTION, AND SERVICES THAT REACHED OVER 83,000 CHILDREN LAST YEAR. WHEREAS THE JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD ALSO SERVES AS A CONVENER FORGING PARTNERSHIPS AND INITIATIVES TO PREVENT NEEDLESS CHILDHOOD DEATHS, CHAMPION CHILDREN'S MENTAL HEALTH. FIGHT CHILDHOOD HUNGER, AND SUPPORTING FATHERS AND GRANDPARENTS. ROBERT JAMES WALKER BY THE VIRTUE OF THE AUTHORITY VESTED IN ME, BY THE GREAT CITY OF DUNEDIN, FLORIDA, AND BY THE ENTIRE CITY COMMISSION, EXPRESS OUR CONGRATULATIONS TO THE JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD FOR 80 YEARS OF PUTTING CHILDREN FIRST. AND FOR ITS COMMITMENT TO THE CITIZENS OF PINELLAS COUNTY. >> Mayor Freaney: HE'S WALKING DOWN. WE DO THAT SOMETIMES. YOU'RE SPECIAL. >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR FREANEY. DUNEDIN CITY COMMISSIONERS, COMMUNITY LEADERS AND RESIDENTS. IT IS MY HONOR TO BE BEFORE YOU TODAY AS WE CELEBRATE A REMARKABLE MILESTONE IN THE HISTORY OF PINELLAS COUNTY. THE JUVENILE WELFARE BOARD'S 80th AN VERSEPY. I'M THE INTERIM CEO FOR JWB. WITH ME THIS EVENING IS ONE OF OUR JWB BOARD MEMBERS. WE ALSO HAVE SOME OF OUR NORTH COUNTY COMMUNITY COUNCILMEMBERS. WE HAVE DAVID HALE FROM ONE OF OUR FUNDED AGENCIES. AND JWB STAFF. FOR 80 YEARS, JWB HAS BEEN GUIDED BY A SIMPLE BELIEF, WHEN WE INVEST IN CHILDREN, WE INVEST IN THE FUTURE OF OUR COMMUNITY. WE ARE A SPECIAL TAXING DISTRICT, ESTABLISHED BY A SPECIAL ACT OF THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE, AND SOLELY FUNDED BY PROPERTY TAXES. OUR ANNUAL IMPACT BUDGET IS 128 MILLION. AND LAST YEAR WE HAD THE PRIVILEGE TO SERVE OVER 83,000 CHILDREN AND FAMILIES COUNTY WIDE. EVERY INVESTMENT WE MAKE IS INFORMED BY COMMUNITY NEEDS, GUIDED BY DATA, AND FOCUSSED ON CREATING LASTING IMPACT FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. FROM A CHILD'S FIRST DAYS OF LIFE THROUGH ADOLESCENTS, OUR GOAL REMAINS THE SAME, HELPING EVERY CHILD REACH THEIR POTENTIAL. AND THAT IS ONE REASON BEING HERE IN DUNEDIN IS ESPECIALLY MEANINGFUL. YOUR CITY LEADERS EMBRACE OUR MISSION AND PARTNER WITH US TO STRENGTHEN OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. AND WE HAVE PARTNERED WITH YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT AROUND INFANT SAFE SLEEP AND WATER SAFETY. AND SUPPORTED MULTIPLE CHILD SAFETY BACK TO SCHOOL AND FAMILY FRIENDLY EVENTSES HOSTED IN YOUR CITY, YOUR DUNEDIN PUBLIC LIBRARY SERVES AS A VITAL HUB FOR FAMILIES. FOR EXAMPLE, WE RECENTLY PARTNERED ON A WELL ATTENDED RACETRACK READ ALONG, GEARED WITH FAMILIES OF BABIES AND TODDLERS UP TO AGE 3, WE WERE HONORED TO HAVE DUNEDIN CITY COMMISSIONER AS ONE OF OUR GUEST STORY READERS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOUR LIBRARY SERVES AS A DYNAMIC PIT STOP FOR OUR TURBO BABIES CAMPAIGN. THEY'RE THEIR CHILDS FIRST AND BEST TEACHERS. THANKS TO THE COLLECTIVE EFFORTS OF ALL OF OUR PARTNERS LIKE YOU, 70% OF PINELLAS COUNTY THIRD GRADERS ARE NOW READING PROFICIENTLY, OUTPERFORMING THE STATE AVERAGE. AND LIKE THE LEADERS AND CITIZENS OF DUNEDIN, WE UNDERSTAND THAT INVESTING IN CHILDREN EARLY AND OFTEN, IT'S NOT JUST THE RIGHT THING TO DO, IT'S ONE OF THE SMARTEST INVESTMENTS ANY COMMUNITY CAN MAKE. WE HAVE 5 PROGRAM SITES, FEATURING FIVE PROGRAMS, FUNDED BY JWB, TO HELP CHILDREN LEARN, GROW AND THRIVE. DUNEDIN FAMILIES CAN ACCESS MANY OTHER JWB FUNDED PROGRAMS COUNTYWIDE. IN FACT, AS OF TODAY, AN ESTIMATED 30% OF ALL HOUSEHOLDS WITH CHILDREN IN DUNEDIN BENEFIT DIRECTLY FROM A JWB PROGRAM. THIS INCLUDES JWB INVESTMENTS WITH THE CITY OF DUNEDIN TO PROVIDE OUT OF SCHOOL TIME PROGRAMS THAT KEEP YOUTH PRODUCTIVELY ENGAGED, SUPPORT STUDENT ACADEMICS AND ENRICHMENT, AND AFFORD PARENTS PIECE OF MIND WHILE THEY WORK. SPECIFICALLY, JWB FUNDS THE CITY FOR AFTER SCHOOL LEARNING AT DUNEDIN ELEMENTARY, SAN JOSE ELEMENTARY, AND THE MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR RECREATION CENTER. JWB ALSO FUNDS A PROGRAM AT CURTIS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. AN ACADEMY AT DUNEDIN HIGHLAND MIDDLE SCHOOL. AND GIRL SCOUTS AT DUNEDIN ELEMENTARY. WE ARE PROUD OF OUR 80 YEAR HISTORY OF PUTTING CHILDREN FIRST. A MILESTONE MADE POSSIBLE BY YOUR PARTNERSHIP. THANK YOU FOR SHARING OUR COMMITMENT TO THE CHILDREN'S FAMILIES WHO CALL DUNEDIN HOME. IN YOUR PACKETS, YOU ALL SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN AN ORANGE FOLDER. YOU WILL FIND INFORMATION ABOUT OUR INVESTMENTS IN THIS COMMUNITY. THE OUTCOMES WE ARE ACHIEVING TOGETHER, AND THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT CHILDREN THROUGHOUT EVERY STAGE OF LIFE. AND WE ALSO HAVE THIS MAP TO LEAVE FOR ALL OF YOU. AS WE LOOK AHEAD, WE CAN CONTINUE IDENTIFYING NEEDS, EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES, AND ENSURING THAT MORE CHILDREN HAVE FAMILIES AND ACCESS TO THE SUPPORT THEY NEED TO SUCCEED. AND BECAUSE THE GREATEST LEGACY ANY COMMUNITY CAN LEAVE IS NOT THE BUILDINGS IT CONSTRUCTS, OR THE ROAD IT PAVES, IT IS THE FUTURE IT CREATES FOR ITS CHILDREN. FOR 80 YEARS, JWB HAS STOOD ALONGSIDE COMMUNITIES THAT SHARE THAT BELIEF. AND WE ARE PROUD TO STAND WITH DUNEDIN, TO CELEBRATE THE IMPACT WE ARE MAKING TODAY, AND WORK TOGETHER TO BUILD AN EVEN BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR GENERATIONS TO COME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTNERSHIP, LEADERSHIP AND UNWAVERING COMMITMENT, TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES OF DUNEDIN. THANK YOU. [ APPLAUSE ] >> Mayor Freaney: WE ARE GOING TO GET A PICTURE, BUT BEFORE WE DO, WE HAD A MEETING ON AMENDMENT 3. COMMISSIONER GOW HAD A COMMENT, IT HAD TO DO WITH, WE DON'T INVEST IN OUR CHILDREN NOW, WE'LL PUT MONEY INTO IT LATER, AND IT WILL BE MORE EXPENSIVE WHEN THEY'RE ADULTS. I THINK THIS IS A GOOD SERVICE, PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THE DEPTH OF WORK YOU'RE DOING. APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. LET'S GET A PICTURE. >> THANK YOU. >> Mayor Freaney: THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH. OKAY, AND NEXT WE HAVE A VERY SPECIAL PRESENTATION, AND I WON'T SAY BY WHO, BECAUSE I THINK NICOLE DELFINO IS GOING TO DO THE INTRODUCTION, IS THAT CORRECT? YOU'RE TRYING TO TRICK ME. SO LESS, LET'S -- YOU'RE ON. >> GOOD EVENING MAYOR, VICE MAYOR, COMMISSION. NICOLE DELFINO HERE, STRATEGY AND SUSTAINABILITY MANAGER, WHILE I OFTEN DON'T STAND IN FRONT OF YOU TO HAVE GOOD NEWS ABOUT THE LEGISLATURE, TODAY I DO. TODAY WE ARE RECOGNIZING A REPRESENTATIVE, KIM BERFIELD WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT A CHECK FOR THE WORK SHE'S DONE AS FAR AS SECURING APPROPRIATIONS. I KNOW SHE HAS SOME WORDS TO SAY, IF YOU WANT TO COME ON UP. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IT IS A PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU HERE TODAY >> Mayor Freaney: CAN I COME DOWN TO GET THE CHECK WHILE YOU'RE TALKING? I'M GOING TO BE ON MY WAY DOWN TO GET IT. >> IF YOU WANT TO. IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU ALL HERE TODAY IN THE CITY OF DUNEDIN, THE COUNCIL, THE CITY STAFF, AND THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. ON BEHALF OF THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE, I AM PROUD TO PRESENT A $1.5 MILLION IN STATE FUNDING SECURED FOR THE CITY OF DUNEDIN'S BAYSHORE WATER MAIN REPLACEMENT PROJECT. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT INVESTMENT THAT YOU ALL KNOW, IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE THE RESIDENTS USE ON A DAILY BASIS. AND IS A LONG TERM SAFETY AND RESILIENCE ISSUE FOR THE COMMUNITY. THE BAYSHORE PROJECT WILL REPLACE AGING WATER INFRASTRUCTURE ALONG BAYSHORE BOULEVARD, HELPING ENSURE RELIABLE ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER. TO STRENGTHENING FIRE PROTECTION, AND REDUCING THE RISK OF MAIN WATERLINE FAILURES. INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE THIS IS NOT ALWAYS VISIBLE, SO A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE TAKE IT FOR GRANTED. IT'S ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TO KEEPING OUR CITY SAFE, FUNCTIONING AND PREPARED FOR THE FUTURE. PROJECTS LIKE THIS DO NOT BEGIN IN TALLAHASSEE. THE HARD WORK BEGINS WITH YOU ALL. IT BEGINS WITH THE CITY LEADERS AND THE STAFF, AND RECOGNIZING A NEED UNDERSTANDING HOW IT IMPACTS THE RESIDENTS, DEVELOPING A STRONG PLAN AND ADVOCATING FOR WHAT THE COMMUNITY ACTUALLY NEEDS. ONE OF THE GREATEST HONORS IN SERVING AS A STATE REPRESENTATIVE IS HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK ALONGSIDE THE COMMUNITIES WE REPRESENT. MY JOB IS TO SIMPLY LISTEN TO THE NEEDS AND CONCERNS, CARRY THEM WITH ME TO TALLAHASSEE, ADVOCATE FOR THEM, THROUGHOUT THE LEGISLATIVE AND BUDGET PROCESS, AND TO FIGHT TOO BRING THOSE RESOURCES BACK HOME, WHICH WE ARE DOING TODAY. THE PARTNERSHIP IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT. WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER, WE ARE ABLE TO TURN THINGS THAT ARE LOCAL PRIORITIES INTO MEANINGFUL INVESTMENTS. IN IS ONE OF THOSE EXAMPLES WE GET TO CELEBRATE TODAY. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE MAYOR, THE CITY KOUCOUNCIL, AND THE ENE STAFF THAT WENT INTO FINDING THIS NEED. HALEY, WHO IS HERE WITH ME FROM MY OFFICE. AND MYSELF THROUGH THE APPROPRIATIONS OFFICE. THIS TAKES A TEAM EFFORT AND CONSISTENT COMMUNICATION. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A MINUTE AND THANK OR RECOGNIZE NICOLE FOR HER DEDICATION, HER HARD WORK THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS. NICOLE SERVED AS A VERY IMPORTANT POINT OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE CITY AND OUR OFFICE, AND HELPING US STAY ATTUNED TO EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE COMMUNITY AND HOW IT WAS CRITICAL TO ADVOCATE FOR DUNEDIN AND THIS PRIORITY. TODAY IS MORE ABOUT PRESENTING JUST A CHECK. A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK, WELL, YOU'RE GOING TO HAND ME A FANCY CHECK AND THAT'S GREAT. IT'S ACTUALLY ABOUT RECOGNIZING THE IMPORTANCE AND BRINGING ULTIMATELY THE RESOURCES BACK HOME THAT BELONG HERE. I AM PROUD TO HAVE HAD PLAYED A SMALL ROLE IN BRINGING THESE RESOURCES BACK HOME. AND I'M EVEN PROUDER OF THE PARTNERSHIP THAT WE HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE LAST FOUR YEARS. I LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING TO WORK WITH YOU, IN SECURING THESE RESOURCES, AND BRINGING THEM BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY. AND THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE A PART OF THAT PROCESS. MAYOR, IF YOU'D LIKE TO DO THE CHECK PRESENTATION, HOWEVER YOU'D LIKE TO. >> Mayor Freaney: YOU TELL US. I'M GOING TO HAVE ALL THE COMMISSIONERS COME DOWN. >> THANK YOU. > Mayor Freaney: YEAH, I'D ASK REPRESENTATIVE BERFIELD TO STAY FOR A SECOND. I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU IN BRINGING THIS MONEY HOME. IT'S A REALLY IMPORTANT PROJECT, IMPORTANT INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT. THAT HELPS US IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY AND OVERALL SERVICE LEVELS. IT REALLY MEANS A LOT. ANYONE ELSE WANT TO ADD ANYTHING TO THAT? >> YEAH, SO REPRESENTATIVE BERFIELD, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR DUNEDIN. YOU ARE ALWAYS VERY ACCESSIBLE TO US. AND YOU'VE BEEN SO INSTRUMENTAL IN CARRYING FORWARD INITIATIVES THAT WE NEED IN OUR TOWN AND I WANT TO PERSONALLY THANK YOU FOR THAT. >> AS I MENTIONED THE OTHER DAY, IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU SHOW UP AND BE A PART OF OUR DUNEDIN COMMUNITY. ONE OF YOUR STAFF MEMBERS HELPED ME STUFF BACKPACKS. VERY RARELY DO I NOT SEE -- WHAT'S YOUR FIRST NAME AGAIN? ONE DAY WE SAT TOGETHER ON A HURRICANE EXPO. WHAT YOU DO FOR THE CITY OF DUNEDIN IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. AND THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE. >> Mayor Freaney: COMMISSIONER DUGARD? >> ONE OF THE THINGS ABOUT BEING A REPRESENTATIVE, YOU HAVE TO BE PRESENT IT AND YOU'RE PRESENT HERE. YOU'RE VISIBLE, YOU'RE ENGAGED, AND WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL FOR ALL YOU DO. BUT BY THE WAY, BRINGING $1.5 MILLION IS REALLY A NICE THING TOO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> Mayor Freaney: AND I JUST ALSO WANT TO SAY, WE HAD A PROPERTY TAX FORUM JUST THIS PAST TUESDAY, AND WE HAVE A SECOND ONE ON OCTOBER 6th. AT THAT TIME OUR PANEL IS GOING TO BE REPRESENTATIVE BERFIELD, SHERIFF GAULTIERRI, TRYING TO MAKE SURE WE'RE FACTUALLY GIVING YOU INFORMATION ABOUT AMENDMENT 3. SO AGAIN, THANK YOU. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO STAY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO. THE NEXT PRESENTATION IS FIND THE GOOD DAY PROCLAMATION. I'M GOING TO TURN THIS OVER TO COMMISSIONER SANDBERGEN. >> GOOD AFTERNOON AND WELCOME. YOU KNOW, I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKES DUNEDIN SPECIAL IS WHEN A CITIZEN RISES UP TO DONATE THEIR TIME TO VOLUNTEER, AND MAKE SOMEONE ELSE'S LIFE A LITTLE BIT BETTER. TODAY YOU'VE COME FORWARD. YOU PROBABLY DO THINGS THAT PEOPLE NEVER RECOGNIZE, BUT YOUR EFFORTS ARE BEING FELT. TODAY YOU WENT ONE STEP FURTHER TO MAKE IT ALL ABOUT THE GOOD DAY.

THE JUNIOR LEAGUE HAS BEEN SERVING NATIONALLY SINCE 19 01, WE'VE BEEN IN NORTH PINELLAS WORKING HARD SINCE 1948. WE'RE PROUD OF THE IMPACT OUR MEMBERS HAVE HAD ON THIS COMMUNITY.
