It is a very tough act to follow with these beautiful children and what a great way to start the day. My name is ken pruitt and I represent alzheimer's community care and I am here with the ceo and PRESIDENT Mary barnes who is in the audience. Thank you for take being time to meet with us individually. We are grateful for the time that you gave us particular ln on this important matter. Florida is home to an estimated 580 residents diagnosed with alzheimer's disease. This is going to increase 170,000 by 2025 and increase of 25%. The population age 65 and older is a greatest risk of develop ing alzheimer's disease. Currently, this group represent s 21% of florida's population and 31.5% of martin county's population. To date, alzheimer's disease does not have a cure or treatment capable of stopping the disease. To help address this, the alzheimer's community care seek s to establish a first of its kind, brain fit nsz institute in martin county. the brain fitness institute will advocate. Promote. Inspire advanced medical principles and clinical guide leans for promoting brain health. It will offer early comprehensive intervention for evidence of emerging cognitive impairment. It willboro side academia and law enforcement communities. The brain fitness institute will advocate establishing cognition as a sixth vital sign which is a cornerstone of the institute. >> cognition, the sixth sign will set the standard for roux seen cognitive screening when clinical intervention can have the greatest possible impact and reverse symptoms of dementia or delay progression of a diagnose neuro cognitive disorder. Our vision is to locate the brain fitness institute on property we are data center storage is located on the corner of willoughby and salerno road. The project size will be approximately 35,000 to 40,000 square foot facility with a construction cost between 14 million and $15,600,000. >> so, we can begin the capital campaign and move forward. Our ask here today is for you to respectfully get permission to make this an issue to go forward by allowing us to meet with the professional staff. And drafting a long term lease and to address other issues that you and the professional staff deem appropriate. We thank you very much. and we are grateful for the support of the county commission. >> senator pruitt, thank you very much. >> commissioner ciampi. >> senator pruitt, if you might stay for a moment. >> first off, thank you very much for coming this morning to share this with us and secondly , I would like to thank MISS Barnes and the alzheimer's community care. I know, we all do, for such a long time. We are fortune at to have that organization working in our community. So, for you all to take it to the next level, if you will. And for the brain cognitive care unit and facility that you are discussing for you all to want to do it here, it is a great benefit for us as residents. I work with a family as coworkers. And they have a family member who is struggling with this scourge with no cure in sight. Most of the time there is some light at the end of the tunnel. There is hope in most illnesses and ailments that there is some cure or some opportunity to get better. But, this particular case, most people. Most family members which is also terribly difficult on family members to suffer through and so I see it on a day to day basis. They bring the loved one with them to where we work. >> so, this has been a very close. And all of us have been touched by this issue. And their families and friends and loved ones. So, I am thrilled. That you would want to do this and if we could play a part on a piece of property that we have our data center. It is a large piece of property it is close to the hospital. And it is close to irsc and close to other rehabilitation facilities there on salerno. It is not on U.S.1 and shocking ly valuable. So. For us to be able to participate with you and the herculean effort will be on your part to raise 14 million to get you started. If we could play a small role. I make a motion that we ask staff to, any related staff to participate with you in giving you the opportunity to have a piece of this community property for such a remarkable community advantage. Thank you, commissioner. >> MR. CHAIRMAN, MAY I. >> please. >> this is no accident. This commission has valued alzheimer's community care and its care for a most vulnerable seniors with the ensidous disease and -- insidious. And we are here because of all of you. Thank you. >> I think we all would have liked to second that. >> absolutely. >> I am sure the record can reflect that. In the motion, ed, can you modify it just a tad that I think, the formal ask was to ask the staff to come back with a lomg term lease option or whatever the proper terminology on that is. And I don't, I don't know how long it takes to put something something like that. >> as soon as the first of the year. We can see it back again. As seen convenient. That can be part of the motion. >> I would make a motion that staph with the understanding that they would be crafting a long term lease for a portion of that property that the county owns. As quickly as feasible for the 2022. Erntle commissioner heard, you seconded that. Are you okay with that. >> does that achieve what you would like to do. >> what a wonderful christmas present. Thank you so much. >> thank you very much for all of your efforts as well. And I echo everything commissioner ciampi said. Probably every one of us in our room know someone dealing with it and it is incredibly special that you chose us and given us the opportunity to really play on a national stage with what you are trying to achieve. I wish you the very best of luck and see you back in JANUARY to wrap up an agenda item. >> thank you. >> in the meantime. Merry christmas to you and your family. >> thank you so much. All in favor of the motion. >> aye. >> opposed. >> that was an important part. >> motion carries. That was unanimous. >> thank you very much. MR. Fay and MR. Jenkins. You want to wait until the agenda item. >> great. That is the last public speaker form we have. Anybody else want to speak at this time. >> okay. Seeing none. We will go to commissioner comments. And commissioner jenkins. >> I am good for the moment. >> commissioner hetherington. >> I am all set. >> commissioner ciampi. >> this is our last meeting of 2021. It is obviously right before the holidays and I wanted to thank a moment to thank my colleagues for us navigating collectivelily through another challenging year. We are very fortunate to have the staff in place that can pivot and adapt as the situations changed. When you are very good at your jobs, sometimes people could misunderstand that and think the job is easy. It is not. It is just that when you have professionals that have decade of experience and collaborate together. Even the hard work. They make it look easy. I would like to thank not for profits. Church organizations and youth groups and everybody talks about 2020. 2021 had its share of challenge s as well. And as a community and as a state and hopefully as a country. We are navigating in the proper direction. We have taken really difficult situations. And sort of rallied past them. I wish you all. And to whoever is listening and my colleagues and staff. A wonderful holiday. Merry christmas to you and take us into 2020 with health. Without health. As senator pruitt was saying. >> 2022. >> not back to 2020. >> in 2022, health, you know, my real prayer and wish for all of you is health. Because if you have your health , as we figured out. This last couple of years. We can figure out the rest of it from there. I wish you all a merry christmas. Special best wishes for a merry christmas and happy new year. >> one thing I would like to add. A conversation for two seconds. I met with john mail and he had a successful trip up to to tallahassee last week and get ting some of our project as little bit higher on the state 's acquisition list. Priority list a little higher. We, the county and all those that participate in the conversation were very success ful in that effort. And we also had a conversation that the water management district. Apparently is in the process. >> commissioner heard, you might want to listen for two seconds on this one. Is in the process of redoing their maps for the irl south and cerp footprints for natural land storage. So. I am not sure exactly what all is going to change. And in those maps but some things have changed over time. And so, they are updating those maps. And I think it would be a good idea if we could also request from the district to include the rest of pal-mar. >> about 2/3 of pal-mar is included in the map and about a third is not. So. If they are redrewing the boundaries or the maps and it is important to one of the many steps we will take. To include all of pal-mar into the natural land storage component. So. I don't know if we need a motion. If you would like a motion to do that and if you are interested. It would be a good next step for us. >> I would make a motion that we request of the south florida water management district, that they include all of the pal-mar property that is are appropriate in their mapping future mapping so that we have a more consistent, concise target. >> commissioner heard, how do you feel. >> this is the first I heard about it. we know the yellow book which is the original brew print for the irl south. That the natural lands were map ped out. So, I will be talking with john mail and also with staff from south florida water management district to see what, if any, changes they are proposing. >> just a quick side to that. What john shared with me yesterday, apparently, there, I don't know if he said a lot of property that is are in the map in the foot print. That the owners have no interest in selling. And so the water management district apparently from their conversation with john has shared with him. That they want to remove those properties from the map and not waste time annually to try to get the trort properties. >> regularrive to everything we are doing with the federal government and matching dollars for cerp. Apparently all the acquisitions are getting to be super important because the matching dollars relative to what that puts up with federal dollars. They are trying to clean up. If you will. And the map somewhat. There are not significant changes from what john said. There are some properties that they don't spend time on trying to achieve. >> pap learn apparently, -- apparently, they don't want to be part of it whatsoever. >> for us. Including the other third of pal-mar in will help us with the process of range being and what we are trying -- range ranging and what we are trying to achieve. >> done donaldson. >> as appropriate. It allows the flexibility to work with the district staff to determine the boundary, whether it is all or a piece of that. So, staff would be supportive. >> that's why I crafted it that way. And I would also, in my think ing. It doesn't hurt us if we add some the things in or ask the staff to work with the district it doesn't hurt us. But, if it is not there. That could hurt us. Including it is not a bad thing . I will second the motion. >> thank you. >> we have a motion and second to request of the district to include remaining portions as we were. As appropriate. For pal-mar. >> all in favor of the motion say aye. >> commissioner hetherington. >> it doesn't affect the vote. So, what is the team line for them amending these maps? >> again, >> I am sure. It is, they are doing a project participation agreement in preparation for a >> wrda. >> the next wrda bill. Whenever that is. >> items. And commissioner correct me if I am wrong. >> items that are being considered for wrda 2022 are in play right now and there are various pieces of it that are being asked to be modified throughout wrda. And all of wrda. And I think of the 16 county coalition meeting. The expectation is that striem this summer, they will be hopefully taking wrda 2022 up. >> so. The district has work to do to get the maps done and get them submitted what ever form shape that takes. >> oak I ca. >> curious on the time line. >> thank you. Motion carries unanimously. >> thank you, all. >> you know, two things this morning and other things this morning and ed touched on this a lot with his comments. We have a lot to be thankful for and I think when we we get see the kids from gertrude weald den come in -- walden come in and see what an amazing special program MISS Washington runs over there. And others that make that all happen. It shows again how amazing the community is. And the second request of us this morning or certainly first request from senator pruitt, alzheimer's community care. To be able to step into a major way in in the arena is just another very special thing martin county will have on its list of things that make us what we are. >> so. I am thankful for that and look ford to a proas per russ 2022. >> -- prosperous 2022. >> MISS Kryzda? miss woods. >> did you all each other on red. >> kind of a giveaway day. >> okay. >> so. >> also, light pink is very festive. >> little too much bleach in the wash, but that is all right it started off a beautiful red. >> shade of red. >> all right. So the first item we have on the agenda this morning is the affordable housing committee appointments. You should have your veeting sheets. If you department turn them in. >> everybody but me. Fantastic. >> I dishled three. >> I circled three. >> always something. >> donna gordon. The two easy ones first. This is the affordable housing advisory committee. There are 11 different categor ies which makes it fun. And actively engaged as low advocate for low income person, nick blont and for profit provider. Mary gavin and then you have four people to to and four applicants to appoint. Up to three people. MR. Jesse. >> the incumbent received five votes. MR. David oleo received four votes. >> MR. Donald barber junior and MRS. Linda fithian received three votes each. >> so, it is between donald and linda. Okay.
