close the door to the chambers, please, and have everyone take their seats. Our airport, aviation, and seaport committee is about to commence. We welcome everybody this Monday morning. If we could close the doors to the chamber, I'd greatly appreciate it. Commissioner Gilbert, please lead us in a prayer followed by the Pledge of Allegiance led by Commissioner Orbis. Please rise for invocation. Bow your heads. Close that door. Thank you. God our Father today, on this day we've never seen before and we'll never see again, we come first just saying thank you. Thank you for another opportunity to do your will on this planet. We pray that you give us wisdom to make good decisions. Deliberative powers of solving. We pray that you would give us the ability to embrace the needs of the community and fulfill those needs with your resources. Amen. I don't have any speaker cards. I believe that there are speakers that want to approach. Now is your opportunity. You'll have two minutes. Please share your name and your address. This is the reasonable opportunity for the public to be heard. Please make your way to the podium. I'm Braswell. Oh, here we go. Braswell, Eric H. Braswell, 11979, Southwest 92nd Lane, zip code 33186, Miami. Standing before you is a 33-year veteran of the Security Enforcement Division from 79 to 2012. I brought some mutual aid proposals. I presented to Commissioner Higgins' office two or three times in order to meet the challenge of higher than normal tariff, triggering high unemployment and a high crime rate. I had a meeting on March 26th with the Deputy Port Director, a MDSO captain, and chief of security. They mentioned that they only have training, live training, every three months. I mentioned that day, March 26th, that training should be done every month, whether we have a foreign adversary problem or not. Also, I laid out a list of port directors I spoke with about the mutual aid packs, including Mike Meekins of Palm Beach and a lady named Charlton of Port Everglades to see that they get together and start acting upon the mutual aid packs, particularly providing free diesel fuel for the truck drivers who do business in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and Miami-Dade, River and Seaports. Hmm, not bad. 36 seconds. So anyway, it's urgent that this should be done or else we're going to have a pretty serious recession and a higher crime rate. Also, that they should hire consultants from the ranks of the ATF and the FBI to provide crime suppression advice and training in acts of terrorism, counterterrorism. Any questions, comments? Thank you, Mr. Roswell. Thank you so much. Any other public speakers? This is your opportunity. At least you get the copy of the reports from the clerk's office. We're in receipt. Neat. And thank you again for your service to our country, Mr. Roswell. Right. Good morning, Mr. Perry. Please state your name and your address. We'll have two minutes. Good morning, Madam Chair and members of the Aviation Committee. My name is Bill Perry. Address 2908, Northwest 62nd Street. Thank you. 33147. Before you commence, Mr. Perry, let the record reflect that Commissioner Hardiman is now with us. Thank you. You may proceed. Thank you. Thank you, Madam Chair and commissioners. I would like to say we are thankful and grateful for the support that you all have given us throughout the years. For the most part, and most recently, we were in December given an additional contract in terms of providing parking management services at the airport. This represents our sixth competitive, successful process. We are, we have returned $66 million to this airport and managed it in fiscal year 2024. Our concern here is not dealing with us, but we have a, what we consider a severe problem relative to the experiences that we've had with the parking access revenue control system, also known as the equipment. And I specifically want to address the issue that came out in the Miami Herald as far as the system being ultimately in good place or where, you know, it's in good condition. That is absolutely a misstatement of fact. Some say 95%. We say 70, 75, more or less. But at the end of the day, it's still not properly functional. The Miami Herald also reported that during that time period, so I think it went down in the meltdown, was February 9th. It is still from our perspective as managers in the meltdown phase. Now, Commissioner Hardeman, in 2021, when he was the chair of the aviation committee, there was a meeting held at the Miami International Airport that dealt with this issue in terms of challenges as it relates to the functionality of the equipment. In 2023, at Commissioner Hardeman's, he was still the chair of the aviation committee, this issue came up again. And for the most part, what has happened is there's been some improvements made, but what happens is it always goes back to where it was. We see it as an emergency. We see it as a customer service. Thank you, ma'am, for your time and consideration. We're here for further comments and questions. Thank you. Any other speakers? Now is your opportunity to approach. You'll have two minutes. Please state your name and your address for the record. Thank you, Councilwoman. Brett Winslow, 5050 Westway Parkway, Houston, Texas, 77041. I'm the managing director for designated access control systems, also known as the parking and revenue control system at the Miami International Airport. Obviously, it takes a village to run a system like this. We've been partnering with MDAT IT and APA, the operator at the airport. We did have an incident that occurred at 930 in the morning on February 9th. We've been working with both the operator and the airport during that time. We were able to successfully implement an interim solution within four to five days. The system has been up and running since that time and we brought the system back up to its full competency prior to the February 9th. We're still aggregating all of the data, the historical data that occurred before that and we continue to work with APA and MDAT IT to make sure that we're solving the future problems and the current problems of the airport including but not limited to bringing on SunPass as a new credential which I know the airport is very excited to do that. So I'm here today to let you know we are partnering with the airport. We're partnering with the community to make sure we're maximizing the revenue and the guest experience for the people coming at the airport. Thank you. Thank you. Any additional speakers? Seeing none, reasonable opportunity for the public to be heard is now closed. To the attorneys, any changes to our agenda this morning? Good morning, Madam Chair. Yes, you have one change to your agenda. It's the addition of item 3D. That's 3D. I also want to highlight that 3A has a substitute so that's 3A substitute and with that, a motion to set the agenda is in order. I'll entertain a moment, excuse me, a motion. It's been moved by Commissioner Gonzales, second by Commissioner Orbis. All in favor of setting the agenda, signify by saying aye. Anyone wish to be recorded no. Our agenda is set to my colleagues. Any items that you'd like to discuss or bifurcate on this morning's agenda, we have no public hearing. Seeing none, Commissioner Gilbert moves our entire agenda. It's been second by Commissioner Orbis. Any further discussion or comments? All in favor signify by saying aye. Anyone wish to be recorded no. Our agenda carries. To the attorneys, does that include 7A reports? Did that just move on consent? Yes. Okay, any further business or on readiness for our members or for the attorneys? Seeing none, we move to adjourn. Have a great morning, everyone.
