Southeast Overtown/Park West, and I believe we had a few items, and I just wanted to -- I thank
you, Mr. Chairman, for allowing us to do it during this City Commission meeting. I didn't want
you to have to come back on Monday from your vacation to address this, so I really appreciate
you addressing it now. So we'd like to officially call this meeting to order, and I'm going to turn
it over actually to our director of the CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency).
Clarence Woods (Director, Community Redevelopment Agency): Good afternoon,
Commissioners. The first item is the CRA financial report.

saying every month, we don't have any reportable conditions to disclose to the Board.
