[3:25] Have first up, mr.
[3:27] Devin Franklin.
[3:36] Good morning, council members.
[3:38] My name is Devin Franklin.
[3:40] For those who are viewing,
[3:42] I am your movement
Policy Council
[3:44] at the Southern Center
for Human Rights.
[3:46] This morning
I come to offer comment
[3:48] in support of legislation
2601483,
[3:52] also known
as the People's Voice Act.
[3:55] This legislation was first
brought before this committee
[3:58] about two weeks ago
on September 8th.
[4:01] At that point in time,
the sponsor for the bill
[4:04] made a request for the bill
to be held
[4:06] for additional language
to be to be put forth.
[4:09] And today, as I understand
[4:11] that that language
has been reviewed by law.
[4:13] There are no issues with that,
[4:15] that language, that language
that has been proposed.
[4:17] And I again, I'm here
[4:19] to advocate for the passage
of the People's Voice Act.
[4:22] The initial piece of legislation
was very simple.
[4:26] It simply sought to address
the fact that
[4:28] certain members of the public
were being called,
[4:33] not in the ordinance
which they had signed up
to speak at public comment.
[4:36] The original piece
of legislation
[4:37] sought to ensure
that if I signed up at 12:00,
[4:40] regardless
of whether or not I had
[4:41] someone seed time to me or not,
[4:43] that I would speak before
someone who signed up at 1:00.
[4:45] For example,
the additional amendment
[4:47] that has been introduced,
[4:49] specifically goes towards
concerns that were expressed by
[4:53] Council President
[4:56] Marcy Collier
Overstreet and a conversation
that she and I had
[4:58] and specifically,
we talked about kind of
[5:01] what the genesis of the concern
was for
[5:04] people having to stay throughout
council to raise their hands
[5:08] at whatever point
to show that they were present.
[5:11] And they had, in fact, seeded
time to, a chosen speaker.
[5:15] The amendment here, that is,
we expect to be
[5:18] formally introduced today
and to be considered.
[5:21] Simply allows
for that verification process
[5:24] to be done
earlier during City Council.
[5:27] So in this way,
the concerns about whether time
and actually been seated or
[5:31] are being met,
as well as the inconvenience
[5:33] that members of the public
who are sitting time
[5:35] have, are having,
is also being addressed as well.
[5:38] So this appears to be
[5:40] one of the examples
of what happens
[5:42] when we're able
to have conversations
[5:44] about the things
that are important
[5:46] to us and impact us,
and what it looks like
[5:48] when we have an opportunity
to work together.
[5:49] And I'm simply here to watch
and hopefully enjoy
[5:52] the conversation and debate
around the legislation.
[5:54] And I hope to see us. Passage.
[5:56] If any of you all
have any detailed questions,
[5:58] I am here
[5:59] and able to answer questions
that the sponsor otherwise
[6:02] would be able to answer.
[6:04] And of course, that sponsor
is a council member,
Kelsey Bond, as well as Liliana.
[6:09] Thank you. Okay. Thank you sir.
[6:11] The next to ladies on
[6:14] our public comment
is Miss Powell and Miss Shields.
[6:18] But understand that you are here
for appointments.
[6:20] You still can get
your three minutes if you want.
[6:22] If not, I understand we can move
on to the next people.
[6:25] So you're going to speak
during the appointment time?
[6:29] Okay. Perfect.
[6:30] Now we have Miss Thomas.
[6:42] Oh, I could just start speaking.
[6:45] Speaking to the mic for me.
[6:47] There you go. There
you go. Okay.
[6:48] My name is Thomas, and I'm here
today to talk to you guys
[6:54] about the issue with Marta
in the transportation.
[6:58] And, like, on my street,
they took our bus,
[7:02] and now we have to in order
for us to get where we're going,
[7:05] we have to schedule a blast.
[7:07] But the community so big,
it's like the bus.
[7:10] It's only one bus
for morning, afternoon.
[7:12] So it'll take like hours
for us to get where we're going.
[7:16] Like, even for school.
[7:18] I couldn't get a ride one day
and Missy had to come pick me up
[7:21] because they said
the bus was full in one letter.
[7:23] Schedule a bus. And
[7:26] it's very inconvenient
[7:27] because people we can't get to
where we need to go on time.
[7:32] Sometimes I'm late for school.
[7:34] Sometimes we like to go pick
ourselves
[7:37] up from school. And.
[7:44] They really shouldn't
have to like because
[7:47] at first it was like two busses,
[7:49] like two vans for like
the morning and afternoon.
[7:52] But now we're just one.
[7:54] Even though
it's like not a lot of areas
that the bus come around,
[7:58] like the Marguerite's
come around and.
[8:03] I don't know, I don't think
they're going to fix that part,
[8:06] but I feel like we
[8:08] need our busses back
because it's very inconvenient.
[8:12] The busses come every like our
that's closer to our house.
[8:16] But our bus before that we had
come like every 15 minutes.
[8:20] So it'll help us,
like get to school faster.
[8:30] And get
some places where we need to go.
[8:31] I'm so sorry.
[8:32] My head just everywhere.
[8:36] You know. Good.
[8:37] What else? Take your time.
[8:40] Oh, yeah, I we had
I think the bus was like
[8:43] 183 on county line.
[8:45] It took us to
[8:48] want to say Lakewood station.
[8:50] I don't I don't really remember
being a minute,
[8:54] but they took it like April 18th
[8:57] and now like with the new Marta
stuff, like,
[9:00] we gotta do all this extra stuff
just to get to where
[9:05] we're going.
[9:06] So yeah. That's it.
[9:08] Okay. Thank you.
[9:09] Thank you. Leave.
[9:11] Miss Thomas.
[9:12] You said it's county
line is the area.
[9:15] Yes, sir.
[9:16] What's that?
Wayne Martin 11, district 11.
[9:18] Okay, because I won't.
I won't get her to her.
[9:21] You okay?
[9:22] So this is Miss Collins,
citywide.
[9:25] So this will have
a resident as well.
[9:27] I know exactly what you're
talking about.
[9:30] Okay,
so we want to make sure we get
you to the right person to
[9:32] to share your grievances with.
[9:33] But thank you for coming down.
[9:37] With that being said.
Been joined by my colleagues,
council member Boone
[9:39] and of course, vice chair,
Council member Collins.
[9:43] That is
[9:46] that's
the end of public comment,
[9:47] but yes, recognized
council member.
[9:49] Thank you. Chair,
[9:52] you know, I wanted to thank you
for coming down here.
[9:55] It's not easy
to come down to City Hall.
[9:59] Marta made these changes
[10:02] with the with
the facade of community input.
[10:06] They moved, they came, and
they said community hearings.
[10:09] And they got our feedback.
[10:10] And the response was,
we'll pray on it.
[10:12] And then they didn't
incorporate any of it.
[10:14] So they were supposed to come
and present to transportation,
[10:18] I believe, this past week
and rescheduled.
[10:20] So they were supposed
to present this week,
[10:22] from my understanding,
they rescheduled to October.
[10:26] But I'll go ahead and say
on the mic that I have had
[10:28] so many busses
removed from my community
[10:30] where new infrastructure
was just put in.
[10:32] And this council has brought up
a number of issues
[10:35] with the bus program,
including this app.
[10:37] And if we are going to have true
equity in the city, then they
[10:41] actually need to start.
[10:43] They have to do better.
[10:44] And the bus
situation is a big one.
[10:46] My district has been complaining
[10:48] about it
and reaching out quite a bit,
[10:50] and making it more difficult
for students to get to class.
[10:53] So I just want you to know
that when they come
[10:54] next month, there's
going to be a lot of questions.
[10:59] And you've been heard today and
you did a great job at the mic.
[11:03] Thanks. Okay. Thank you.
[11:07] Is that it?
So that takes us to
communications, Mr. Overton.
[11:10] Thank you, Mr. Chair.
This brings us to item
number 126 C 5076.
[11:14] A communication

Commission on Women.
[11:45] And this is a great organization
to be a part of.
[11:48] I've learned so much and
I've helped with the healthcare.
[11:52] I was the vendor sponsor person
who all the vendors
[11:57] had to come to me in order to
participate in our healthcare,
[12:01] and I've never done that before.
[12:04] So that was eye opening,
and I appreciate learning
all the different roles in that.
[12:08] And, I just love Acle,
[12:12] so I would like to
continue my membership.
[12:15] Thank you very much.
Councilmember.
[12:16] Yes, Joanna, just thank you
so much for your willingness
[12:19] to continue to serve

tremendous work with town
[12:26] hall meetings, health fairs,
financial literacy seminars.

[13:13] Miss Overton brings us to item
number 226 C 5077.
[13:17] A communication from Council
member Antonio Lewis.
[13:19] District 12, reappointing
Mr. Shields.
[13:21] Serve as a member of the Atlanta
[13:23] Commission
on Women Disappointment
[13:24] for a term of two years,
to begin retroactively
[13:26] on May 6th, 2026,
and expire May 5th, 2028.
[13:30] Miss shields,
this year in the office.
[13:32] Miss you.
[13:39] Good morning.
[13:41] Good morning.
[13:43] Just give us your name
and tell us why you want
[13:46] to keep serving. Okay.
My name is a shields,
and I would like to continue
[13:50] to serve on the Atlanta Women
Commission.
[13:52] As you see, we have again served
[13:55] so many different women
in each community.
[13:59] The town halls,
the mental health affairs,
[14:03] the financial
literacy and the importance
[14:05] of bringing young ladies
like this to be able to come in,
[14:09] learn their community
[14:10] and to be able to advocate
on their community.
[14:13] And Lana's Women's Commission
gave me the opportunity
[14:15] to share my voice and to share
my voice is the reason why we
[14:20] go out in the community,
and we teach these young ladies
to share their voices
[14:23] and know who their community
representatives are.
[14:25] So having this opportunity
to learn more,
[14:28] consecutively, is very important
to me,
[14:32] and I truly appreciate
all the opportunities
[14:35] that you all have provided
for me to myself.
[14:39] Thank you ma'am. You,
Councilmember Collins.
[14:41] Yeah, I just want to
just want to also,
[14:44] echo TC's work
and also really excited
[14:47] to see you be reappointing
to the Commission on Women.
[14:51] I truly feel that you really,
along with the other women,
[14:54] but particularly for district
12, have really uplifted
[14:57] what the issues and also
how the how women can be
[15:02] a part of the solution as well.
[15:03] So just really excited
and always going to champion
[15:07] to have you at the table
[15:08] because you are truly,
truly representing district 12.
[15:11] Well, so with that Mister chair,
I make a motion to approve.
[15:15] Oh, sorry.

Is there a second?
[15:19] I second.
So for the discussion,
I just wanted to take
[15:23] you have truly been the
heartbeat of that organization.
[15:27] You have truly, truly,
gone out into the communities
[15:31] where folks would not normally
[15:33] want to go spreading the word
about what
[15:35] the Atlanta Commission on Women
does.
[15:38] Thank you, thank you.
Thank you for your sacrifice
and making all the meetings
[15:41] and bringing all the suggestions
and just bringing the podcast
[15:45] to the organization.
[15:46] And I invite
all the council members to,
[15:50] come to one of their meetings
and see what they are about.

a spectacular group of women.

in terms of any feedback, that
[19:16] any conversation that came
from FEC in regards to this,
so I can speak to that.
[19:20] There was no conversation

[21:36] Council Member Dozier,
you're up.
[21:39] Thank you, Mr. Chair.
[21:40] Colleagues,
this is the legislation
[21:41] that we discussed
a couple of weeks ago.
[21:44] I know we didn't
substitute our men at that time,
but this was the substitute
[21:47] that we had discussed
in the previous meeting.
[21:49] I recognize that there's
still some questions or
[21:54] concerns about the legislation,
what it will do,
[21:56] and I'll defer to the author
to clarify
[21:58] any additional information
about that.
[22:00] So I'm I recognize
in the respect
[22:02] of having those giving providing
opportunity in space for those
[22:06] parts of conversations,
[22:09] I'm okay with
it being held, and I'm happy
[22:11] to have a conversation
with the author legislature.
[22:14] I know
they don't serve
on this commission,
[22:16] on this committee,
but I want to make sure
that y'all have an opportunity
[22:18] to have
those conversations as well.
[22:19] So I want to make the motion
to hold or or keeping on hold.
[22:24] I guess we have to make a motion
to keep it on health.
[22:27] I'll make a motion to keep it on
held.
[22:29] And, well, if there's any,
[22:32] continued reticence, all defer
to the rest of the committee
[22:34] to share that. But one of the.
[22:37] Put that motion out there.
Thank you.
[22:38] There's motion that's been made
I was seconded.
[22:40] So we shall continue
conversation.
[22:43] Discussion.
Great. Yeah, I wanted to
[22:47] I was going
to support that that
that motion to hold as well.
[22:50] Just wanting to
I know I need to get back
[22:53] with a couple of people
to get more details.
[22:57] And we were
and and my apologies for that,
just being tied up with
[23:02] the other.
But for I will say the questions
that I do have and would love
[23:06] to see in this legislation,
there's a couple of things.
[23:09] So in section A,
[23:11] and co-sponsor Councilmember.
[23:14] So section A which says
that individuals wish to speak,
[23:19] excuse me,
that the clerk shall begin
[23:21] accepting individuals
to speak up.
[23:24] 105 minutes prior
to the start of the meeting
[23:27] and shall continue
with the new addition
[23:29] until the commencement
[23:31] of the public comment section
of the Council member
[23:35] for consideration.
I would I'm just
going to be public about that.
[23:37] Would love any consideration
to change.
[23:39] Wish to sign up
to speak 105 minutes
[23:42] to 30 minutes
before the start of the meeting,
[23:46] knowing that proclamation time
is allocated for an hour
[23:49] and could possibly go over.
[23:51] So in fact,
where you're giving where,
[23:55] you're still giving
more time to sign up, however,
[23:58] you are given additional
individuals to come as well.
[24:02] So in essence, it will be
120 minutes total to sign up.
[24:07] If that's something.
[24:08] And I'm putting that figure out
for 30 to 45 minutes,
[24:11] that also gives our clerk office
to be,
[24:13] you know, enough time to set up.
[24:15] So still additional
time to sign up
[24:17] if it is agreement to go once
the start of public comment.
[24:21] We do know oftentimes
the proclamation section
[24:24] does go over a little more
than an hour at times.
[24:27] So so in this essence,
[24:30] the community is still given
more time to be able to sign up.
[24:34] So that so we'll,
you know, 30 to 45 minutes,
[24:38] before the meeting starts up
until the end of proclamation.
[24:41] So that actually, again
gives 125 plus more minutes
[24:46] versus the 105 minutes
to start the second piece.
[24:51] I know that I wanted to have
some questions about is also,
[24:56] having individuals
that are going to six
[24:59] that's going to give time
[25:01] and kind of doing this
roll call strategy.
[25:04] Also give this roll call
strategy in terms of yielded
[25:10] time,
I do know
there were some concerns
[25:11] that was being expressed
by council members and council
[25:15] leadership in terms of
if that is the roll,
[25:18] the roll call at the beginning
is what will what will happen,
[25:22] what is the process in terms
of reducing the ten minute
[25:27] yielded time?
Is it find and balance
for eight minutes.
[25:29] And so that allows a person for
[25:31] you know, them and three other
individuals to sign up.
[25:34] And the yield at time
[25:36] total will be eight minutes
because you
[25:38] you will have more people
that's going to sign up
[25:40] and have time yielded.
[25:42] Now, you know,
knowing that they're
[25:45] their private constituency,
I'll call that.
[25:48] They're the group that
they bring with them to support,
[25:50] does not have to stay
for the full,
[25:51] you know,
for the full public comment.
[25:54] So that's two things
I would just want
[25:56] to publicly come out
for consideration
[25:59] that that has been shared.
[26:00] And we could talk more about
what that looks like, but I do.
[26:03] We just
want to put that out there.
[26:05] Yes, that Mr.
[26:06] Chair, I yield
[26:08] all great questions.
[26:09] I think it's wonderful
[26:11] that you asked them on the mic
so that people understand
[26:12] that there's critical thinking
going into it,
[26:15] especially on public comment,
[26:16] just the transparency
of the discussion.
[26:19] To the point
that was made
by Councilmember Dozier
[26:21] with the amendment
of the substitute
[26:23] giving it another cycle,
[26:24] because there are
some colleagues
[26:25] who haven't had a chance
to give that a read.
[26:27] And, I do think,
[26:30] Councilmember Collins brings up,
[26:33] brings up opportunities
for debate
[26:35] over the next two weeks
and trying to
[26:37] get those questions
answered and,
[26:41] seeing if any adjustments
need to be made. So,
[26:45] point taken.
I'm going to pass all of this
along as well.
[26:47] And with that Mister chair,
I yield.
[26:51] Thank you.
Seeing no more speakers,
there's motion
[26:53] has been made
in a second in the discussion.
[26:55] Open the
vote, please. Vote is open.
[27:03] Vote is closed. 680.
[27:05] Nacional remains
held in committee.
[27:10] Overton. Mr.
chair, that concludes our
legislative agenda for today.
[27:12] That concludes
our legislative agenda.
[27:14] Any more conversation,
discussion, announcements?
[27:17] Seeing.
No. We stand adjourned. Thanks.
