Just as a great play or movie has various segments that fow together, fireworks shows are similar type productions that should never leave the audience wanting more or leaving disappointed. Opening Presentation The Opening Presentation will start your display off "with a bang." A "mini-finale" will excite the crowd and get them energized for a great show. Body The majority of your display will be fired during the Body presentation. It will have a balanced pace with constant action. Radiant color combinations like Violet & Lemon, Aqua & Pink, and the always treasured Red, White, & Blue. Amazing effects such as Crossette, Twitter Glittering, Rings, and Color Changing Chrysanthemums will be mixed in to illuminate your skies! Your Grand Finale Presentation The Grand Finale Presentation is the ultimate crowd pleaser and most exhilarating part of your display. When the sky erupts with Multi-Color Peonies and Thunderous Salutes, there is no better visual experience. They will end your event in style and leave the audience wanting more! No Dead Air combinations. At any given time there will be multiple firing of shells layering the sky from 300' to over 600' in the air. These shots will be fired straight and with a slight angle, in single, pairs, and Aights of 5 shells Space and Safety Requirements Pyrotecnico adheres to all safety regulations provided by NFPA 1123 and the State of Texas. In addition, Pyrotecnico requires 100' per inch of diameter of shell for the fall out area which exceeds NFPA 1123 minimum site requirements of 70' per inch 800.854.4705 e WWWPROTEENICO.COM Pg. 06 PYROTECNICO YOUR SHOW We take pride in our ability to "layer" the sky with vivid surprises at varying heights and widths, painting the entire sky into beautiful scenes of color. Your show will be unique and precise, with a timeline that will include an opening mini-finale of bursts to kick off the display, followed by a body filled with unique scenes and special effect barrages, and concluding with a grand finale that will light up the sky like nothing your audience has ever seen! o o *Maximum shell heights will vary for each individual display. *On average, shells will reach100' of elevation for every inch in shell diameter. (Example: 2" shells will reach approximately 200'in elevation.)

This council is established via FL Statute 951.26, and meets for the purpose of assessing the, population status of all detention or correctional facilities owned or counteracted by the County, and formulating ecommendations to ensure that the capacities of such facilities are. not exceeded. Such recommendations shall include an assessment of the availability of the Pretrial Intervention or Probation Programs, Substance Abuse Programs, Gain-Time Schedules, applicable bail bond schedules, and the confinement status of the inmates housed within each facility owned or contracted by the That's an overly formal way to say that this group works to keep jail populations low, but we also work to keep our county safe for our citizens. Our committee includes the State Attorney, Public Defender, Judges, GPD Chief, ASO Sheriff & Jail Director, Probation Administrator, Court Services' Director, Alachua County BoCC chair, Meridian, and Manager of DJJ. I've included the full list of members (and who occupies that role) at the bottom of county. this email. In2 2022, a BoCC resolution passed to include a non-voting Municipal Ex-Officio Representative from each outlying city, starting with Alachua, and rotating aphabetically through the following: Alachua, Archer, Gainesville, Hawthorne, High Springs, Lacrosse, Micanopy, Newberry, and' Waldo. Each municipality would be asked to participate for one term, equal to one calendar year. If ar municipality declines to participate, they must notify the County in writing, and the rotation will move to the next municipality for the remainder of the year. The committee felt that it was very important to include the municipalties, as they are often forgotten or ignored, and we want to make sure that your safety concerns are addressed and heard by this group. The PSCC meets twice per year, once in the spring or early summer, and again in the fall. Meetings are 90 minutes, held at the Civil Courthouse in downtown Gainesville. The spring/summer meeting will be held on Thursday, May 9th, from So, what does this mean for you? Well, I know Ijust kind of sprung this on you, but you're up next in the rotation! The city of Alachua participated in 2023, and now it is your turn. There are no restrictions as to who can or cannot be a Municipal Ex-Officio Representative for 1:30pm to 3:00pm. There is no virtual (Zoom) option. 1 Archer; only that they live and/or work in Archer. It thought that sending it to the City Commission members and Manager would be a good start, as you would be a better assessor of who should attend to represent Archer for 2024. I've attached the minutes from our two 2023 meetings SO you can get an idea of what this committee is and what is discussed. Ican send more, if additional history is needed. that I can include them on all calendar events and dialogues. Please let me know who will be flling this role for 2024 no later than Friday, February 23rd, SO Ift this is a lot, and you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out! aw Per Resolution 22-106, this is the current roster of the PSCC.

Jail Population Management Report & Comments Lillie Perkins shared that as of April 24, (the day that the Live Inmate Status Report was compiled), the current jail population was 864 which is 75.3% of total jail capacity (1,148). In the Report, the inmate status breaks down as follows*: Status Description Felony Awaiting Trial Felony VOP Felony Sentenced Over 1 Year Felony Sentenced Under 1 Year In Transit Parole Violation Book In /E Book Out Cases Status Description Cases 127 44 19 22 24 10 563 97 45 119 18 1 2 Misdemeanor Awaiting Trial Misdemeanor Sentenced Under 1 Year Misdemeanor Probation Violation Criminal Traffic Civil Action Other Jurisdictions Other/Unspecified TOTAL INMATES 864 The Current Jail Population case count includes everyone in the circuit, even if an individual is from another jurisdiction. The DoC has stopped limiting transfers from County to State Jails. Lillie also pointed out that there may be DoC cases in County jail because those inmates also have misdemeanor pending charges. Commissioner Prizzia asked if the low staffing (there are over 100+ vacancies), in conjunction with the high inmate count, could be a safety issue, not only for inmates but for staff as well? Since there was no representation from ASO at today's meeting, this would be a good discussion for the next agenda. Judge Denise Ferrero asked how the jail knows that an inmate has a Mental Illness? Lillie stated that it was either from an evaluation or via an inmate's self-report. Judge Ferrero followed up to ask how many of the 400+ inmates with reported mental illness are being housed in General Population VS Special Population, and how that might affect staffing and costs. Lillie did not have specific numbers for her. Commissioner Prizzia is also worried that the jail inmate numbers are much higher, when compared to pre-Covid numbers, and wonders what factors are driving that increase. Carl Smart stated that Court Services has had a discussion on this subject and said that a large problem is the DoC transportation and waiting issue, but that general crime rates are also up throughout the circuit. 2 Paris Owens agreed with Carl, that GPD has seen an increase in crime in Gainesville, in certain categories such as burglary, felony fraud, and drugs. Cheryl Kauffman added that there has been an increase inj juvenile Commissioner Prizzia asked why are inmates with misdemeanors awaiting trial in jail so long and ifi it's simply because they didn'tqualify for bail? Lillie said that each inmate is evaluated on their criminal history, the safety of the community and the victim (if applicable), and if the person is a flight risk. A recommendation is then put forth by First Appearance, based on those factors. If a person can be released on their on recognizance, they are released. If they cannot, First Appearance staff will make a recommendation to the court. Commissioner Prizzia then asked if there has been an increase in the use of treatment courts (such as Drug Court, or Veteran's Court). Lillie stated that treatment courts have caseloads above 100+. First Appearance and the Central Screening Team are making recommendations (sometimes multiple ecommendations) to treatment courts every day. She reiterated that Court Services' goal is least restrictive supervision possible because they don't want anyone sitting in jail if they don't have to be, to help people with mental illness or substance abuse out of jail and into treatment, to get the resources they need. Claudia Tuck stated that all treatment court numbers are down right now, since they are seasonal. She is working with judges to try to expand qualifications for who can enter into treatment courts to allow for more participants in the future. Michael Reeves added that he could make a report to get some data to Commissioner Prizzia. Jail population numbers tend to peak in the summer time, sO the number could get higher in a few months. Commissioner Prizzia would like to have an agenda item to look at this data at the next meeting, see what types of crimes are occurring, and if there's programs available or could be created to alleviate the increase. Heather asked how inmates with multiple cases are represented on the Current Jail Population list? Chris Carusone stated that this list (above) represents the number of cases, not inmates. At this moment, there are 227 cases that fit into multiple boxes (such as in inmate who has been sentenced on their felony case but is awaiting trial for their misdemeanor case). At the bottom of the spreadsheet, it lists the Total Inmates in the jail. (There's 1091 total cases, but 864 inmates). Cheryl added that the Department of Corrections had to activate the National Guard to act as Corrections Officers at the prisons, because they are having staffing crimes, too. issues as well. Work Release Closure Carl Smart shared that the Court Services Work Release Program has ceased operations, and they are looking for alternatives to assist low-risk inmates. One option is a Re-Entry Program. Claudia is working with the county's Equity Manager and community engagement, talking with stakeholders. There are many community partners who are interested in this program, and who may already be doing similar work. Court Services is also looking to expand the EM/GPS program to send people home and allow them to work. Judge Moseley is highly in favor of 24-hour monitoring. He would like to receive a prompt report to the court Commissioner Prizzia asked if there is data to show who in jail are repeat offenders? Michael stated that he provides that for CJMHSAG, looking at New Charges, New Arrests, and New Bookings, for one year before, and two years after. Those formulas can be used to get data for this committee as well. Judge Moseley reiterated that there are few, if any, misdemeanor case inmates who are in jail with no criminal history; those cases are almost always released with conditions. If they are in jail, they are most likely repeat offenders. Don Savoie stated that the CJMHSAG program would be ending in 2023, after being active for the past 15 years, and 51 total grant cycles. There will be one more "official" meeting in July to wrap everything up. Meridian found out in late February 2023 that there would be no additional grants available in Florida, and none will be renewed until January 2024, when more money is possibly appropriated. Meridian did a Statement of Intent to DCF and Lutheran Services Florida (LSF), and LSF partnered with Meridian to provide about half a million dollars to set up a Forensic Multidisciplinary Treatment Team (FMT). By state definition, this is as close as ofa any boundary violation. Conclusion of CJMHSAG 3 you can get to what CJMHSAG was. So, they will continue to operate the FMT Team with recurring funding tomanage about 45 clients in a WRAP Team environment. Meridian will absorb the costs of funding two Care Coordinators and a Counselor, who do the outpatient and psychiatry work for those clients who don'tneed the WRAP services. At the previous CJMHSAG meeting in April, Don asked the committee to continue to hold meetings to keep the group together to continue to do great work. After July, Meridian will take over the administration of meetings until such time as the grant comes back, no sooner than December 2024. There should be no noticeable lag in services due to the change, but if anyone notices detrimental issues, please reach out to Don directly sO that he can address the situation. Progress Report on Central Receiving System (CRS) for Alachua County County funding for building construction was finalized in December 2022. Legislative funds through GPD were appropriated. City of Gainesville contract is in progress, moving through Legal. The 100% construction plans are done and the bid packets will be released on May 1, with a 30-day bid response time. At that point, bids will be reviewed to see ifany cost-adjustments need to be made. Current estimate for construction completion is. June 30, 2024. The project has hit a few snags such as enlarging a retention pond, relocating a major water The operating contract with the county $1.75 million was signed in December 2022. The budget is in the Florida Senate, and in a "holding pattern" in the Florida House of Representatives. If approved, this will be The Advisory Council is TBD for now; Don has met with North Florida Regional Medical Center and UF Health Shands, with positive movement. MOUS have been sent to both hospitals. Additional MOUS will go out next month to law enforcement agencies and other committee members. Because operations are still a year away, the council will be tentative until the fall. Right now, the council will be made up of the following: main, and remediating unsuitable soil. recurring funding, which will be available indefinitely.

Judge Moseley stated he was worried that Alachua County residents would be footing the bill for out-of-county clients, but Don shared that Meridian is funded for Baker Act beds by the county from which the Baker Act came. It's important to state that the Central Receiving Facility is not beds it's separate from The Hospital and The Crisis Stabilization Unit. Meridian is a private not-for-profit corporation, who receives funding from the County. When a Baker Act is filed, Don thinks of it just like 'emergency medical care" but for mental health, instead of physical health. Meridian, just like medical hospitals, look at each patient to see if they have health insurance, do they have Medicare or Medicaid? Are there any grants or funding available to assist with the cost of care? They follow this line of funding to ensure that they stretch every possible Public dollar available. Currently they have 65 pay sources, and 40 grants, and will apply for any dollar possible to lessen the burden on the public as much as possible. Commissioner Prizzia added that Central Receiving Facilities (CRFs) are meant to be an intertwined network of facilities across the entire state ofF Florida, with State Funding. That funding would help fund the CRF and reduce the amount of County funding required for operational purposes. She hopes that soon the hospitals will see the benefit of CRFS and provide funding as well. Don reiterated that per Florida Statute 394, there is a requirement for 50% local match for Don is expecting to serve 4,500 per year, which is based on the annual reports received from University of South Florida, of the number of Baker Acts in the region. They've also added capacity to serve voluntary walk- appointed by the BoCC. funding. 4 in clients, and 23-hour voluntary observations. Judge Moseley asked what the release plans entail? Don said that clients are offered to be transported home, wherever home is, as well as coordinated treatment in their local area. For children, the family has to come to Meridian and be part of the discharge process; this has led to a very large drop in recidivism for juveniles. No matter what, when a Baker Act expires, Meridian cannot legally hold anyone against their will, if they don't want to stay for treatment. JMHCP Oversight Subcommittee Update David Johnson shared that the JMHCP subcommittee has moved back to meeting quarterly (previously they were meeting every other month). They are looking at revising their membership, paring it down to about 11 members, including two Peers (1 justice-impacted, and 1 behavioral nealtr-impacted). Grant #2 ends on September 30, 2023. They will be submitting a No Cost Extension in July, which will allow them to extend the current funding into March 2024. The Research Team will be completing their final report in Summer 2023 David just submitted the second of two grants called Connect & Protect (which falls under JMHCP) with GPD to continue funding one oft the Co-Responder Teams. JMHCP will fund a Peer Specialist who will be dedicated to law enforcement, to assist with drop-offs at UF Health Psychiatric hospital. That peer will meet the officer at custody exchange and assist the individual through the process through 30 days after, with case Grant #2 will total $1.1 million dollars (with $554,000 coming from federal funds). Connect & Protect will be $738,000 (with $485,000 federal funds). The total of both grants willl be almost $1.75 million dollars. The grants are competitive, and David should know if he received both, either, or neither, no later than Summer 2023. The Alachua County Behavioral Health Transportation Plan was recently updated and will remain valid through and they look forward to holding a speaking tour with that data. management. It will also fund a paid research assistant for 6 months of each grant year. There are only seventeen grants to be awarded nationwide. 2026, or until such time as it needs to be updated due to the CRF coming on line. Court Services Department Temporary Re-Organization Carl Smart shared that the County Manager has temporarily reorganized Court Services, upon the loss of Claudia Tuck (Director of Community Support Services) will lead Meta, OPUS, Treatment Courts, and Heather Akpan (Director of HR) will lead Pretrial Services, Day Reporting, Community Service, and Carl Smart (Deputy County Manager) will lead Probation, Jail Population, Records Techs, ITS/Security The next step, over the coming months, is to review the department before bringing in a new director. The County Manager's Office is reaching out for an agency, such as the National Corrections Institute, or a consultant firm to look at the department and provide recommendations on how to move forward in a positive direction. They hope that these reviews don't take more than a few months, sO that they can hit the ground previous Director Michael Arizmendi.
