[2:31] yes um I'm going to be voting no on this
[2:34] um again you've all heard my objections
[2:36] many many times in our previous meetings
[2:39] um I definitely want to say that I I
[2:41] think very strongly feel very strongly
[2:43] that Chief Marino and chief Clifford in
[2:45] particular all of our department heads
[2:47] but um I I feel that not um putting in
[2:51] the overtime as the mayor mayoral budget
[2:54] had uh asked for um is really showing
[2:58] that um the majority majority of this
[3:00] Council doesn't seem to have confidence
[3:02] in mayor in uh Chief Clifford or chief
[3:04] Marino and the figures that they've
[3:07] given us so um because I feel very
[3:10] strongly that Public Safety is probably
[3:12] should be all of our number one concern
[3:15] around this table um I'm voting no on
[3:18] this budget Mr palini no m p
[3:24] yes the measure passes three four to
[3:28] three time to call for motion to adourn
