[0:05] adjourned.

[0:25] City council, public hearing, minutes, adjourned.

[0:28] day. Her party is going to be on a Saturday, Doris is on Sunday.

[0:38] What's your birthday?

[0:40] Do you have a date?

[0:42] 13. Is that Sunday? Yeah. 13. Doris is October the last. I have that.

[0:51] I'm probably missing. Okay. Hers is going to be on the 14th on Saturday. December? Uh-huh.

[0:58] That's not a Saturday.

[0:59] So the 12th and 13th is a Saturday or something.

[1:03] That's well said.

[1:04] My guessing is to say today is the...

[1:06] Here's why I'm asking.

[1:07] There are some inspectors to Santa Claus without it being careful of when.

[1:11] Okay.

[1:12] So if you want to get that from me so we can make sure that we can sit her appropriately

[1:15] or not, or find another very comfortable chair that looks like that,

[1:20] because that's Santa's chair.

[1:22] So please help us with that restraint.

[1:28] Yes, a lot of things have been already mentioned, but I would be remiss if I did not mention

[1:36] thank you Chief, thank you Chief for all that you do and especially the happenings

[1:43] that we've had this past week. I appreciate everything you guys do.

[1:47] And I would like to thank John and public works and the people, the AC show, and everybody involved with the well.

[1:56] I mean, and I'd really like to thank the citizens of Perlock for coming back onto water and make it do in, you know, going through a rough time.

[2:12] We've already talked about, but again, I'll be doing this.

[2:16] Seems like it gets bigger every year.

[2:19] A good turnout.

[2:20] A good job by all school starting soon.

[2:26] Watch out for the kids.

[2:28] Seems like we just said school is ending.

[2:30] Watch out for the kids.

[2:32] But now school is starting soon.

[2:34] So, I'll be in makeup next week.

[2:41] On Wednesday, I'll be warm, Wednesday, early,

[2:43] probably come back to our day.

[2:47] I will not be here at all on September 14th,

[2:51] giving you a month notice.

[2:53] I will be important.

[2:56] I will be very interested in going,

[3:00] you know, the sky through whatever.

[3:03] that that works out. If not, I'll take my head, you know what I have to do.

[3:14] I think that's

[3:16] here in the hospital. That's all I have. Thank you for coming out. And be careful when

[3:21] I'm getting South's pretty rough out there. I do want to, I do want to make a comment about

[3:29] the solid fire. Even though it was mentioned as empty, it did go out and we had 15 departments

[3:35] answered the call and assistance. I'm going to say 25 pieces of equipment. So the network

[3:44] of relations that came together from Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

[3:53] So I wanted to say that, and I also wanted to do a shout out to the Holocaust and Deli for

[3:57] simple reason. I was on my way back, but I was out of the area. And in doing so, hearing

[4:06] how many people would come and serve, and everything, I called Holocaust and Deli and said,

[4:11] how many cases of water do you have? And he said, is everything okay? So we have a fire.

[4:16] There's going to be firemen on scene, and I want to make sure there's as much water available to be to rehydrate them.

[4:23] And they took, there's like eight cases of 40, and right off the bat, put them right in the freezer to cool them down.

[4:29] I said, I'll be there to pick them up.

[4:31] The good news is, we didn't need it.

[4:35] But they didn't hesitate to do that, and it was just something expertly we were looking at.

[4:40] What else can we do, because you guys were taking care of the seriousness of that while John was working on it,

[4:46] And with that quick phone call, there was going to be

[4:50] a water available in the road.

[4:51] And then there was backup as far as that goes.

[4:54] There's ain't we're ready to go to you all the things

[4:55] I got here.

[4:56] I just want to say that.

[4:57] Let's shout out to them and surely other businesses

[5:00] would have jumped in for different things as well.

[5:03] That being said, I'm going to go to public comments tonight.

[5:06] Anyone here?

[5:07] Mr. Regans?

[5:08] No, I don't.

[5:09] I figured in, I'm going to go back to the ladies

[5:11] and they're very quiet couple in the back, for sure.

[5:16] I'm going to go to you and then go right back to them.

[5:20] So a couple things.

[5:21] The theme I didn't mention earlier, I started the process of reaching out to other museums.

[5:26] There's one in Vienna.

[5:28] Excuse me.

[5:29] There's one in Eastern Market.

[5:30] We're going to be starting kind of like communication and dialogue to say, you know, how can we cross

[5:36] promote and work together?

[5:37] I know we have a bunch of like the NNRB at the museum that they may not know that we have.

[5:43] and just I figure a network of museums can tell a broader story of the history of

[5:48] our town in this part of the county. But that's on that, below the place. The data

[5:52] centers, well I think the more important was the right way to go. Absolutely. I know

[5:58] they're not exactly popular, but I don't think they're going anywhere. We can see

[6:03] the way the worlds move into worlds. AI and assistance, they're going to be

[6:07] somewhere, but I think two things can be true. They're not going anywhere, but they

[6:10] They don't need to be in a hurlock, they don't need to be in smaller challenges whose infrastructure can't handle it.

[6:15] So I think that was definitely the right way to go on the board to work.

[6:20] And just saying you're thinking about everything that happened this week and just from a citizen standpoint,

[6:25] the fire department, all of our first responders, especially the ones that are paid and a volunteer,

[6:30] I'm not taking away from anybody, but for the volunteers, it just really hit me that these are people that don't get compensated, necessarily financially.

[6:37] sometimes the individuals aren't recognized but it's just kind of inspired to me

[6:44] that any given time the tones could drop they have no idea what they're

[6:47] walking into they have no idea if their own well-being or health is going to be

[6:52] impacted has what happened the other night and they just put themselves without

[6:57] question and danger and I think we kind of maybe all take it for granted you just

[7:01] call a fire department but in a community like this the fire department has made

[7:05] up of our neighbors, business owners, it's not a particular race or age group or man

[7:12] or woman.

[7:13] These people to sign up and I just think it's a really, we're very fortunate and very

[7:18] blessed to be one community that has a strong lease and fire EMS and that they just without

[7:24] a question of put themselves in the service of others and unfortunately this individual

[7:30] was severely hurt in our prayers with them and prayers ain't made so full recovery and

[7:34] it takes a toll on our other volunteers like our chief and stuff. So for with you you'll

[7:39] be in the prayers. Thank you for everything you do. That's all I would like to say. I just

[7:44] wanted to make a point of that. Oh and as far as the speed bumps in prospectites I am part

[7:49] time employee or all I guess know and we deliver and I can definitely vouch for what Mr.

[7:58] The biggest fear I have is when I go out there is police don't, where are the kids at?

[8:03] Let me educate a kid. That's a tragedy. I don't think anybody wants me to have that at our hands.

[8:07] And if we could be proactive to help curb that, I think that would be great.

[8:11] Because these kids are just out here on the time of their lives, they're kids, they're playing, they're with their friends.

[8:18] Biggie back and off the thing with the fireball, you never expect something bad to happen.

[8:21] It could happen, but if we can be proactive in getting ahead of it, I think that's to be the right thing to do.

[8:27] Some definitely needs to be done. I don't want to impact their play area, but I don't want to be responsible for calls

[8:32] You know, actually somebody getting hurt. I appreciate it. I'll have to say thank you so much. Fam, you've been patient. May I ask you?

[8:44] Well, what he said is true, because there's so many little kids out there. They're not at all. There are some shorter than

[8:52] Then the schools, and they get all in the road, and people do come to their, yes, and you need to be more people.

[8:59] Then also about what the artistic someone.

[9:02] Yes, they're awesome out there, but they need to come a little closer to where people can see them.

[9:08] Because people is not expecting them, and I feel like you feel it.

[9:12] Someone's child is going to get killed, and it shouldn't get to that.

[9:17] because they are the future and they don't have nowhere really to play.

[9:22] The little genie kids that are out there by surprise back to the apartment,

[9:26] they have to go all the way from out to the apartment,

[9:30] go across the road to go around the corner and that's too much.

[9:34] So, you know, they're just sure they're too small.

[9:37] They need to be sent out there, even if it's for people that own the place,

[9:41] should put something out there for the smaller kids so they don't have to be crossed in the road

[9:45] because that's what I'm here for. I don't want to see nobody's child dying or

[9:52] when it can be avoided before it's too late.

[9:57] And it just upset me because it's

[10:01] so much going on out there and they might propose to all to you know they came

[10:07] out Saturday and they were told about Saturday you Sunday but before then we

[10:13] We weren't seeing them down there, and we need to see our own public policies down there,

[10:19] because they do communicate with the kids, and the kids love them.

[10:24] And, you know, I just try to say, don't want to see nobody scare her.

[10:28] And I want them to respect the speed out there, because I mean, it's ridiculous, it's not

[10:36] I'm not saying how many of it is, but I don't think so, because they don't respect

[10:41] the state of the 15 miles an hour, but they steal them to go and open them up, and

[10:47] it's ridiculous.

[10:49] Would you help me or help me?

[10:51] Yeah, I'll help anybody.

[10:52] You have my number back there, correct?

[10:54] Okay.

[10:55] Let me say this.

[10:56] I don't mind if I'm calling and looking at everybody on this council notice, and I will take

[11:00] calls all the time.

[11:01] By asking if you know these individuals, call them out themselves and say, I'm watching you and give me their names and numbers and I'll go on and say to them, just as a protective way of those who recognize they need to also be aware of the children in the neighborhoods that they live in and that they take it upon themselves to slow down as well.

[11:21] I know the chief is going to do everything he can, but I'm asking for the neighbors to

[11:26] get involved to where we can recognize those individuals who don't respect those signs

[11:31] and who don't respect the function, who don't respect the speed, so that we can present

[11:35] it to them as well to take a little more care in what they're doing behind the wheel.

[11:41] I don't want to say that we have to do all those things, and I'm sure we're going to look

[11:45] at all of these things.

[11:46] We also need to reiterate who's behind the wheel and ask them to take responsibility for

[11:50] their actions as well. Everything he did mention tonight has been someone not caring.

[11:56] And then after someone just hurt us, Mr. Hagen says that can happen, then people begin

[12:01] to care. So let's prevent it ahead of time and reiterate to them that they need to

[12:06] slow down. And if I need to say hello, my name is Mayor Murphy. We were told that you were

[12:12] doing you, would you please do so? And I'm asking from the bottom of my heart to do so.

[12:16] I'll make that call if I have to, okay?

[12:19] And I appreciate you bringing it tonight

[12:21] so we can address it tomorrow and the next day

[12:24] and the next day.

[12:25] And we're working together with the community members

[12:27] and making it more clear to those behind the wheel.

[12:30] We've got kids that want to live to see tomorrow

[12:32] and the next day and be our future leaders.

[12:35] That's what I'm asking.

[12:38] Anything else, ma'am?

[12:39] No, I want you to know.

[12:41] That's not a problem.

[12:42] Could it have that all you call it?

[12:46] Well, people in the front of the house.

[12:50] Trainers are in the front of your house.

[12:50] Trailer.

[12:51] It's a carrier.

[12:52] Trailer.

[12:53] Could it be?

[12:55] Could it be someone at the place that she got.

[12:58] Can't wait about your destiny.

[12:59] That's the one present one time.

[13:02] That I'd like to hit on Brandon's house.

[13:06] If I had been paying the attention to this child,

[13:08] would you hit or would you kill him?

[13:11] If he were a nun, he'd come off the street.

[13:13] I didn't express his rage.

[13:15] that I addressed the issue with the chief about two weeks ago, right, chief?

[13:20] Oh, OK.

[13:21] I've already tried.

[13:23] That's right.

[13:24] I think the issue is they don't have to be able to factor up into New York, but we're working on that.

[13:31] That's not true.

[13:32] That's where we've got to pick up.

[13:34] I don't see them.

[13:35] That's where I was going.

[13:36] Yeah, I see them.

[13:37] But they got to pick up.

[13:38] Put them out in the resident mode, chief.

[13:45] She can ask a question if you don't mind if this is something that is not supposed to be parked in the street

[13:51] Is it something we can?

[13:53] It is legally tied and has been there too long

[13:59] It needs to be up into the or they have plenty of room

[14:02] The last officer of one matter came back from and may be incorrect if it is

[14:17] They have a pickup. They bought it from Philly to here with the pickup.

[14:38] if you have any comments, please present your name so I never want to speak into it.

[14:46] At the start, I'm waiting for a certain day at the next meeting, because that's how I can feel, how you're on your things at hand.

[14:53] So that way I can address it correctly.

[14:55] I also want all the idea and I appreciate that at the same time.

[14:58] And I had...

[15:31] May I have a

[15:41] motion to adjourn? May I have a motion to adjourn? May I have a motion to adjourn?

[16:02] I suppose ladies and gentlemen, the meeting is adjourned.

[16:07] Please be careful in the weather going home.

[16:09] Thank you all for being here.
