Firefighter Amador stated that team Captain, Firefighter Sergio Morejon, could not make it today as he is out of town in training. Firefighter Amador thanked the City on behalf of the team for their continued support to allow us to participate in this competition, because ultimately this competition and the training required helps us to better serve the citizens of Coral Gables in any type of emergency that we might find. Firefighter Amador stated our success would not have been possible without the support of the Fire Department under the leadership of Chief de la Rosa, further stating from day one the Chief said we could do whatever we needed to do in regards to personnel, money, and equipment to compete. Firefighter Amador stated they knew the history behind the Fire Department’s Special Response Team, and it was a history that we should continue.

Human Resources Director Green stated that she wished to highlight, that while reviewing Anton’s file, which includes many commendations, she noticed that he had also been the recipient of the “Employee of the Month” in 2005, and interestingly enough both his current and former supervisors had the same thing to say about Anton. Human Resources Director Green further stated that Anton’s supervisors mentioned his great work ethic and his ability to mentor and encourage other staff within the Utilities Division.

Public Affairs Manager Higgins-Fallon stated that as you may know Coral Gables Television was nominated for an Emmy this year by the National Academy of Television Art and Sciences, and to put that in perspective the Emmy is for TV as what the Oscar is for movies and the what Grammy’s are for music. Public Affairs Manager Higgins-Fallon stated that attending the red carpet Emmy Award Ceremony this weekend was Daiana Rocha and Michael Rocha, who traveled to Orlando to represent us and we brought to you a small video clip, so that you can see with your own eyes this very special, emotional, remarkable and nerve wracking moment, where we all were waiting to hear who the winner was. A videotape was then played showing the Emmy Award presentation. Public Affairs Manager Higgins-Fallon stated without further adieu, she would like to present the City of Coral Gables our first ever Emmy Award awarded to the City for the outstanding work in Coral Gables Television. Public Affairs Manager Higgins-Fallon further stated it was her pleasure to introduce the lady behind the video, the one and only remarkable reporter and producer, Ms. Daiana Rocha. Ms. Rocha thanked the City Commission, City Manager, City Clerk and City Attorney, and stated it was her pleasure and she doesn’t want to reiterate anything she has already said, but said it is beyond happiness, and she is truly honored to serve the City of Coral Gables and to put the City’s name up representing the highest standards of quality in television production. Ms. Rocha stated that you should know that being awarded an Emmy does not happen very often for City and government access channels like us, and the fact that we got this puts us beyond excellence in production in television and this is what the City deserves, and this is just a reflection on our commitment and engagement to do the best for the City and added she is truly honored to serve the City. City Manager Swanson-Rivenbark stated we have been blessed with Telly Awards City of Coral Gables Page 4 City Commission Meeting Minutes December 5, 2017 before, but this is the first Emmy Award and we won it Saturday, and before they publicly announced it they wanted to present this news directly to the City Commission. Vice Mayor Keon stated we really need to thank former City Attorney Craig Leen to for inspiring all of us and helping us to recognize the world that the autistic child lives in and making us better public officials by recognizing that and doing things to make this a better world, and a better place and a better life for both children and adults who are autistic, and added that she hopes Craig is listening, he was such an inspiration for that world, he is wonderful].
