[16:56] department heads, and any guests that may be a part of uh this community.

[17:03] I really like to apologize for what I uh my actions uh from at the last city

[17:09] council meeting on Monday, May 18th. You know, I truly believe as mayor uh I

[17:17] must, you know, uh ensure that I have decorum uh when I sit in in this

[17:24] position and uh I must say I did not do that at

[17:29] the last meeting. I apologize. I I really do feel I uh I fell short of what

[17:37] this seat holds as mayor of the city of North Chicago.

[17:42] uh I I felt that uh my actions uh was not appropriate and uh to the citizens

[17:50] and this council I would do better. So uh saying that I do want to say also

[17:59] that goes both ways uh to our citizens and to this council.

[18:04] We must all have good if we want to move this city forward. People are watching

[18:10] us. they're watching us uh whether it's on Zoom or or here at council meetings,

[18:18] you know, uh and if they see us

[18:24] doing the things that we are and the way we act, you know, we're trying to

[18:29] attract economic development, businesses into our community and and it just

[18:35] doesn't work when there's disruption. So again, uh, council, from my

[18:42] standpoint and from me, I apologize. I will do better. Uh, and and I just

[18:48] wanted to make that statement as we continue to move forward as as a as a

[18:55] group. So, >> Mr. Mayor,

[19:00] » um, did I hear you say that we're going to follow Robert?

[19:04] » We always follow Robert.

[19:11] Omnibus vote agenda. >> I am Evans.

[19:16] » I would like to approve 5-15-9

[19:21] as presented. >> Second move by Alman Evans, second by

[19:25] Alman Allen that the omnibus vote agenda be passed as presented. Are there any

[19:30] questions on the omnibus vote? >> Mr. Mayor, Alderman Coleman.

[20:11] No question. Anyone else?

[20:14] » Hearing roll call. >> Alderman Ray.

[20:18] » Hi. >> Murphy.

[20:20] » Hi. >> Hi.

[20:23] » Coleman. >> Hi.

[20:24] » Evans. >> Hi.

[20:26] » Hi. Motion carried. Public comment.

[20:35] Courtney and Kathy.

[20:52] » Hi, good evening. My name is Marica Jones. Um, this is my team, Courtney and

[20:59] Kathy. Um, I grew up and lived in North Chicago for the majority of my

[21:06] childhood. And so what keeps me coming back is our wonderful afterchool program

[21:12] known as Drama Club. We Drama Club has been around for a a long time now. Um,

[21:18] but I've had the opportunity to be a part of drama club for the past three

[21:22] years and I um see that being a long-term commitment of mine. But um

[21:29] what we've been able to do for this community and the youth who live here um

[21:36] has been able to was to give them an outlet. Um it's not just about theater

[21:42] and the arts with us, but more so holding space for them and um giving

[21:47] them access to resources that typically would not be in their grasp due to

[21:52] circumstances outside of their control. And so we wanted to come here today um

[21:58] just to ask for your continued support in what we do. Um as of right now, drama

[22:06] club is a seasonal commitment. It is after school. However, our goal is for

[22:12] it to become something more um year round and we understand that once kids

[22:18] are out of school um they have a lot more time on their hands and so it would

[22:23] be nice for them to put that time into something more productive um and so they

[22:29] can continue developing skills that will set them up for success and keep them in

[22:34] alignment with their goals and aspirations. And so um we just wanted to

[22:39] ask once again for uh you to keep us in mind during those periods of

[22:44] implementation when you are going through you know how to continue

[22:50] forwarding this community. Um it would be helpful to us if we had more access

[22:55] to youth centers or community centers for us to utilize those spaces during

[23:01] the summer for our students. um as well as uh potentially become you know a part

[23:09] of the North Chicago community days. We I know that that's something that is an

[23:14] annual staple of North Chicago. The purpose of it is really to showcase the

[23:19] best parts of this city and I think one of those included in that is our youth.

[23:25] And so if we could also have the opportunity to um have our youth be a

[23:30] part of that for them to showcase their talents um that would be a really great

[23:35] opportunity for us to explore in the future as well.

[23:40] But thankful. >> And the other thing is we can expand

[23:44] then to North Chicago in general because right now we are

[23:48] » limited >> limited in who we can teach. But if we

[23:51] could expand during the summer and teach more the whole community, that would be

[23:57] great. And we could only do that during the summer. We work under the school

[24:00] during the uh regular year, academic year. But during the summer if we could

[24:05] do something like that, if you would afford us the space and then if we could

[24:10] reform whoever we teach, I mean it could be other students also. We don't want to

[24:14] be limited. Uh right now with our program, we do have we do do high school

[24:19] scholarships and we do have 35 enrolled in prep schools and we do have uh almost

[24:25] every one of our kids that has gone through with us is a college is in

[24:28] college or graduated from college. So we have a very good uh record, academic

[24:35] record. So we're very excited about that. But we would kind of like to, you

[24:38] know, be part of the community also because we are trying to help the whole

[24:41] community. >> Yes. Uh

[24:45] » I don't have anything to say. I hear from

[24:48] » I think the biggest thing is if we can get a sheet especially would like a

[24:52] space. >> Um

[24:53] » yeah, I was just going to clarify we currently work out of the learn 10 and

[24:58] learn six schools. Um and so uh once again our goal is to expand our team so

[25:05] that we are able to reach a much broader audience. Um but for now it's just four

[25:10] of us that kind of take this on and so it would be it would mean a lot if we

[25:15] had a little bit more um access and just support from the community.

[25:22] probably we could even run a program for the community separate from our program

[25:26] where we would run like uh during the summer as I said perhaps eventually

[25:32] during the school year different days or whatever through the community. So we'd

[25:36] like to try to work with the community eventually because like I said we're

[25:40] trying to help as many students as possible. That's our goal. We do third

[25:43] to eighth grade. Let let me say as as mayor

[25:47] » I support you. >> Yeah.

[25:49] » Uh I I don't know how many city council I know.

[25:54] » You guys did an excellent job at theater on Thursday. I think it was Thursday.

[25:59] » Yes. Thank you. >> Beautiful. I mean from from singing to

[26:05] dancing to tap dancing. >> I mean these kids perform to the highest

[26:11] level. >> And uh you know I I I hear that what

[26:15] you're saying that you need space and you want to get more involved in the

[26:19] community. Uh I think from the city, we're more than happy to to support

[26:25] that. Uh I I know that you know you probably need to get into the school

[26:31] district 187 though we are not directly you know

[26:36] uh a board for that. They have their own separate body. I do know that there's a

[26:41] board member here, Mr. Coleman, Gerald Coleman. Uh, and if

[26:47] he had an opportunity to see, I think if any of the board members had an

[26:52] opportunity to see what you guys actually can do for our children and how

[26:58] you uh achieve that, I think that you know they would be of supported also. I

[27:04] do know also we have a park district. So, I mean, you're you're you're

[27:12] » here at the right place at the right time,

[27:14] » right? >> And uh you know, this is something I

[27:17] agree. >> You know, we have things that we can do

[27:21] to support our children to not just say keep them off the street, but to achieve

[27:26] to to expand their minds not just into the books, but into the arts also. Uh

[27:32] that is something that is uh you know that is needed for them. So, yes,

[27:37] whatever type of Uh, I think that would be great to to

[27:41] see if we can do something into our community days to, you know, get you in

[27:46] to, you know, maybe uh do some performances that parents may want to be

[27:52] able to sign their children up to to be a part of. So, uh, be more than happy to

[27:57] work with you on that and, uh, you know, whatever we can do from our part.

[28:02] » Thank you so much. >> Thank you.

[28:04] Amen. >> And uh I don't know if you guys are

[28:07] going to be there Wednesday for graduation, but hope to see you there.

[28:10] » Yeah. >> Thank you.

[28:15] » Oh, like I say, I'll get the Christmas

[28:19] performance. Great job. Those kids performed so well. And I too, but I say

[28:25] that's why I gave you my number. So, come here on city council and get these

[28:28] get the city involved and get the mayor secretary phone number and and you come

[28:34] up with some things get this out. >> Yeah, I think at this point the park

[28:38] district would be great to work with because the park district would be

[28:41] separate from the school district and I don't think we want to yeah they would

[28:45] have the space and it would be like almost a separate program we'd run

[28:48] through the city which would be because we run this one through there running a

[28:52] different one through the city I think is what kind of we're looking at right

[28:55] now. So, I don't know who we talked to about getting space at a park district,

[28:58] but that >> he's getting

[29:01] that that is need to talk to. So, you know, Yeah. Thank you so much.

[29:05] » Thank you for >> and then then you can also talk with the

[29:09] mayor about getting you guys on community day. Yeah,

[29:11] » that would be a good performance. >> Absolutely.

[29:14] » And also we bring out the uh >> talk with the chief of staff over

[29:19] Jackson. >> Great.

[29:20] » Okay. >> Well, thank you all again. We really

[29:22] appreciate >> resources where you can

[29:24] » Yes, we we appreciate any help we can get.

[29:28] » Thank you. >> All right,

[33:28] that person resides in that ward. that person seeks to represent.

[33:34] Um the legal definition of residency in the Illinois legal residency is defined

[33:40] by two strict elements established by the Illinois Supreme Court. Markhamm

[33:45] versus Board of Election uh Markham versus Board of Election of

[33:52] Commissioners. One of the things is your physical presence in the home and the

[33:56] other is the intent to make the homes one's permanent primary residence. Um,

[34:01] buying a home is a permanent financial and legal commitment. If an older person

[34:07] buys a home in another ward, moves their belongings there, and sleeps there, they

[34:12] are legally they are legally abandoned their original ward. Um, that's the

[34:20] first part of the law. Um, before I go any further, anybody can go to the back

[34:25] page of their packet there.

[34:31] that uh that is the voter registration uh from the Lake County clerk. That is

[34:41] the official uh registration. And if you look at the previous page,

[34:48] you'll see that um that is actually registered in the six ward currently and

[34:57] they actually registered on 116 2025

[35:02] is actually when they register outside of their world.

[35:08] All right. Uh when you go to number two, it says moving out automatically

[35:14] triggers a vacancy. Um the law Illinois Municipal Code 65

[35:21] LCS531-10-5-

[35:25] C-1. A vacancy occurs in an office by reason

[35:30] of more than a temporary removal of residents from the ward. more than

[35:36] temporary. Buying a property and establishing a life in a different ward

[35:40] does not qualify as a temporary trip or a short-term displacement that

[35:46] constitutes a personal move. Automatic consequences.

[35:52] Under Illinois law, the moment an official permanently moves their primary

[35:57] residence out of the elected district, they structurally vacate the office.

[36:04] they are no longer legal uh to represent of that ward. So number two basically

[36:11] states that when that alderman registered um in a different ward that

[36:17] he actually represented uh Illinois law creates that seat as

[36:23] being vacant. Okay. Automatic. Um number three it comes down to us as alderman.

[36:32] um the city council's duty to act, right? That means it's our

[36:37] responsibility as all to act. Um the law Illinois municipal code 65 LCS

[36:44] 5-3-1-10-50.

[36:48] The corporate authority um has the authority to determine whether a vacancy

[36:54] has occurred. Corporate authority for Chicago that means mayor and the city

[36:59] council. The council's duty is on the second page. State law gives the city

[37:06] council the explicit power and responsibility.

[37:11] We have the power and the responsibility to investigate residency challenges if

[37:17] an older person is found to have moved. The council must officially declare the

[37:23] seat vacant so a proper representative can be appointed or elected.

[37:31] Those are the the three key elements um required to live in your ward moving out

[37:38] under state Illinois state statute automatically that seat is vacant and as

[37:44] city council we have a duty to act

[37:52] and you know saying less I think at this point um

[37:58] how is How is that relevant to this vote? Um, how's that relevant to this

[38:03] vote? It would be improper for an alderman that's not representing his

[38:08] ward to actually vote to move his home to a different ward. Um, currently by

[38:17] state statute, he's no longer an alderman. And secondly, in order to

[38:24] vote, you have to be an alderman. and it would most definitely be improper for

[38:31] you to vote on a district that will keep you as an alderman even though you moved

[38:38] out. So, I've given this notice to our attorney

[38:46] um and it's our duty to investigate it, which would take some time, which would

[38:52] take some table. I put a lot on the hardest plate today. Um, we've given you

[38:58] the facts and the laws. There's more information in the packet about

[39:03] redistricting. Um, but at this point,

[39:10] um, I still request that we table the matter because we have a voting issue

[39:18] now. Um, if that alderman's vote can actually make him award um and he's

[39:28] currently not in a so with his seat being vacant

[39:33] for him to vote would invalidate the vote. Now I know I just gave you guys

[39:40] this packet and I know you guys need time to read it. I know you guys need

[39:45] time to uh research the laws, the attorney time to research the laws and I

[39:53] really would hope that our whole council to make this decision at the time that

[39:57] we made that decision. But as of right now, um, the order, you have the facts,

[40:04] you have the responsibility, and you have the duty to your residents, to the

[40:11] city, and you're obligated by law um to do what's proper.

[40:20] » So, we have a we have a representative also available to speak to this.

[40:28] » Hi, Mayor. Can you hear me? >> Yes, D. Go right ahead.

[40:32] » Hi, please uh state your name and who you're

[40:37] with and first.

[40:39] » Yes, mayor. Thank you. I'm Dan Bolan from Anel Glink. I'm one of the

[40:43] attorneys that's been working with the city's redistricting consultant on the

[40:48] redistricting ordinance that's in front of you tonight. I understand that one of

[40:52] the alder persons is raising a question about the qualifications

[40:57] of office for one of the current older persons uh another older person. And

[41:06] yes, the municipal code uh does give that power uh for the uh corporate

[41:14] authorities to determine whether a vacancy has occurred. that usually

[41:18] happens after notice and an opportunity to be heard. I don't I understand that

[41:25] that has not happened uh that that uh older person has not been deprived of

[41:31] their current uh office that term expiring

[41:36] uh in 2029. The ordinance in front of you has nothing to do tonight. The

[41:41] redistricting ordinance has nothing to do with any of the qualifications of

[41:48] current older persons. They will uh are respond the redistricting is responding

[41:54] to population shifts based on federal housing policy and university housing

[41:59] policy uh uh that have changed where the voting age population lives in the city.

[42:07] So the this ordinance will help you have fairer elections in 2027 for the even

[42:15] number of wards and in 2029 for uh odd number boards. And so to honor that

[42:22] principle, one person, one vote, uh that is why we undertook this project and

[42:28] worked with the redistricting consultant to uh uh propose maps that address the

[42:34] population shifts for future elections. Questions about anyone's current

[42:40] qualifications of office are uh frankly not related to the ordinance that's in

[42:46] front of you tonight. That's all I have. Mayor, thank you.

[42:51] » Mr. Mayor, >> can I address the attorney?

[42:57] » All right. Um, I kind of knew you were going to say that. So, everybody turn to

[43:01] the next page. The population balance window is closed. This is what he's

[43:06] referring to. Um, under Illinois law 65 CS53-1-20-25,

[43:16] a city council is explicitly required to redistrict the city based on the

[43:22] official census. The official census happened in 2020.

[43:28] Cities across Illinois finalized and passed their legally binding W maps back

[43:33] in 2122 in which we did and to balance the

[43:38] population for the entire decade. If the council needed to redraw the

[43:44] lines for population balance, that work was legally required to be finished

[43:50] years ago following a 2020 census, claiming we suddenly have a massive

[43:55] population crisis in 2026, conveniently matching the exact moment

[44:02] an alderman brought a house outside of his ward, fails the common sense test.

[44:09] The timing proves this is an emergency map for one politician, not a routine

[44:15] adjustment for the public. A map. And second, if you see the second point,

[44:21] okay, a map cannot cure a vacancy that already happened.

[44:27] Even if the council votes on a new map tomorrow, it cannot retroactively undo

[44:33] the law under Illinois statute 65 CS53-1-10-50.

[44:41] The office became vacant the instant the alderman relocated his primary

[44:46] residence. A map passed today cannot fix a law that

[44:52] was broken yesterday. The council cannot use a future map to

[44:57] reinstate someone who has already legally disqualified themselves from

[45:02] office. The timing is fundamentally flawed because the vacancy has already

[45:08] occurred by operation of state law. You cannot redraw the boundaries of a ward

[45:14] to bring back an alderman who already vacated his seat by moving out. Right

[45:21] now, as we stand here, the seat is legally vacant. Under 65 LCS53-1-10-50,

[45:32] you cannot legislate away an existing violation.

[45:39] it. Point number three, as I said last time, it invites an immediate audit and

[45:47] lawsuit. If council insists that they are doing a sudden mid decade

[45:53] rebalancing act, they have to prove it with certified population data under the

[45:58] 14th amendment. Every ward must have an equal number of residents. Changing a

[46:03] line just to swallow one house completely disrupts the map.

[46:14] If the change in the map was for balance, we have to explain why only why

[46:22] only the border near the autumn's new house is changing. If the council votes

[46:29] to pass a brand new mid decade map claiming it's for balance, you open the

[46:35] city up to massive legal liability. A judge will look at the timing and ask,

[46:41] "Why did the city wait until 2026 to balance the population? And why does the

[46:47] new lines perfectly carve out the new the the new alderman's new property?

[46:54] Passing a map under this false pretense is an arbitrary misuse of government

[47:00] power, and it invites an immediate lawsuit that North Chicago taxpayers

[47:05] will have to pay for.

[47:11] Mayor, may I respond? >> And yes, go right ahead.

[47:15] » Um, uh, I I agree with Alderman Coleman. The vacancy question is separate. Uh the

[47:22] redistricting ordinance in front of you tonight has to do with uh different

[47:28] terms of f future terms for offices in held in to be elected in the

[47:35] future in 2027 and in 2029. Um the qualifications questions that the older

[47:43] person is raising are are separate and could be taken up at another time. Um

[47:50] the if the c if the corporate authorities so wish the uh the question

[47:56] about the population data the if you read on in the statute it is uh for

[48:03] after a dennial census or for any other reason the the corporate authorities can

[48:09] redistrict the wards and in this case the reason is we know based on the

[48:14] American community survey and and federal housing policy changes and

[48:18] university housing policy changes since uh the last redistricting, which I was

[48:25] uh was a pleasure I had the pleasure of working with the city on uh last time as

[48:29] well. Um we know that we that the population has shifted drastically, the

[48:36] voting age population has shifted uh because of the the military housing

[48:41] policy and the university housing policy. redistricting the wards uh to

[48:48] balance out the population will actually insulate the city from one person one

[48:53] vote lawsuits and so that's why we undertook this project and its

[49:00] ordinances in front of you to consider tonight. Thank you mayor.

[49:05] » And a lot of that has stemmed from the fact that Paul village

[49:10] » Mr. Mayor >> point of order.

[49:14] » No, but I have a point of order. >> I have

[49:19] » I have the floor. >> I I have a point of order.

[49:24] » You have your point of order after I address.

[49:27] » I'm going to be courteous and give you that.

[49:29] » Thank you.

[49:35] We work with the military in regards to

[49:42] Pauly Village. There had been residents there

[49:48] during our first census count and our redistricting.

[49:54] Since that time we have lost Pauly Village,

[49:58] 39 houses out of Forestto and Rosland Franklin or uh the Woodlands

[50:05] is no longer part of the jurisdiction is now under Rosland Franklin. again losing

[50:13] population and losing votes in a particular ward.

[50:19] When that ward has lost their population,

[50:26] that means that at they're no longer having an opportunity to uh have the

[50:32] balance that needs to be in all seven boards.

[50:36] That is the reason we move forward with redistricting

[50:40] all seven. so that it would be a balance for all council members sitting at this

[50:48] council chambers. So as Alderman Coleman states, I agree, but but we move forward

[50:57] and anybody at this time could go over to Forestall and you will not get in

[51:03] because it is barricaded and getting ready for demolition. Oh, excuse me. Hy,

[51:09] I'm sorry. pausing and it is getting ready for demolition.

[51:14] So you count every house that will been in

[51:19] that ward and it's gone and there's no more population for that war. So that is

[51:25] the reason we move forward. Your issue uh Alderman Coleman uh is a different

[51:32] issue than what this vote is on today. this ward this is balancing out all all

[51:40] of our wards so that we would have an even population throughout.

[51:44] » Mr. Mayor,

[51:49] » um village has been shut down for a very long time and the houses are falling

[51:55] apart. Um I thought we address Pauly and we remedy we remedy that imbalance in

[52:04] 2021. when Hoy was already gone and the census

[52:09] came in. Um Hoy's been a ghost town for >> people.

[52:16] I mean I >> So do we have those numbers? Um do we

[52:21] have has any of the alderman seen those numbers from the census?

[52:27] Uh the percentages have you seen >> sat sat down and did the maps alderman

[52:32] would talked to each of the alderman. >> You didn't never talk to we already

[52:36] talked about it. >> The data was the data was presented to

[52:38] the >> Has anybody else seen the data? You've

[52:42] seen the data. I haven't. when I met May I speak

[52:48] » when I met with um

[52:53] I'm sorry >> Kim Brace is Kim Brace is the consultant

[52:57] from EDS out of Washington >> I can't I I will not speak for my fellow

[53:04] » I met with him I saw the data >> we had the discussion

[53:09] » and I understand why I'm speaking for myself I understand why my ward is being

[53:16] my ward boundaries are being redrawn. >> So to answer your question, yes, I did

[53:21] see the data >> and

[53:23] » and if anybody else wants to talk about their meeting with Kim, then they can

[53:27] talk about that. >> Well, I wasn't.

[53:29] » Well, wait a minute, Alderman, did did everyone have that opportunity except I

[53:33] know Alderman Coleman said he did not. >> I'm sorry, Ward. But see, the only

[53:37] problem I have I've been looking at this right here now

[53:41] the question was I had At the beginning, it was saying that

[53:47] uh the sevenman was had to uh had to leave out of that

[53:54] district over there. I'm we going a different direction or not. He he got he

[53:58] got I know some other people still live over that in that we're now that's not

[54:04] uh just just regular citizens. So I don't think Dr. I don't

[54:08] » not not in for not in forest not in >> for people living forced out right now

[54:14] » civilian >> civilian my daughter I know

[54:17] » yes >> my daughter and two I'm just saying I'm

[54:20] just saying how many >> not against that I'm just saying

[54:22] » civilian housing >> that my understanding was all

[54:29] » no my daughter been there for five years uh the woman that runs the place she

[54:33] been living there about a year now then another couple

[54:38] had to move I'm just telling you what I seen so I look at this and see we got to

[54:42] follow the law. I can't support somebody. I got to follow the law. I'm

[54:46] not going to sit here and tell you that I'm trying to make it into hell. I'm

[54:50] going to do what's right. Once I get some information and see what's right,

[54:54] what's got to do what's right? Because I was going to go run with it two weeks

[54:58] ago. I really bring this paper out. Look at this. Then it tells me about they

[55:02] were the whole time. Is that right? >> So you want me to vote on something

[55:07] that's not right? I can't do that. >> Can I interject?

[55:09] » I'm just speaking all of that. Can I interject something? It was some it's a

[55:12] valid point that Alderman Coleman brought up.

[55:14] » Yeah. >> Right ahead.

[55:16] » If as Alder Alderman Coleman points out that the state statute says that that

[55:21] office is already being vacated by the by the individual leading the ward, if I

[55:26] if I'm misspeaking, let me know. >> Then what's the difference on the map?

[55:31] If the office is vacated, he's not there. What's the difference on the map

[55:35] then? >> Because he doesn't vote. If if his seat

[55:39] is vacated, he doesn't vote tonight. >> But remember, when we go through a

[55:43] vacation, there has to be a finding by city council or a petition, a poor

[55:47] Toronto petition brought by the state's attorney's office. And he has um due

[55:51] process rights to notice in a hearing. >> And this this actually, as my colleague

[55:57] pointed out, that has to do with is the term that expires in 29. What we're

[56:02] looking at tonight is redistricting ordinance to go into effect for 20

[56:07] looking forward, not looking backwards to where he lived when he was elected.

[56:11] He did live in in his district when he was elected.

[56:15] » Does he live in his district today? >> I don't know if he does or he does not.

[56:19] I don't believe that he does, but >> did I just send you Did I just give you

[56:24] uh his address and everything and you just read over the packet? What I what

[56:28] I'm saying to you all um Commissioner or Alderman Coleman is that he has right to

[56:32] a hearing on that which is separate and distinct from

[56:35] » Do you think that as a city council we should hold this vote off to see if he

[56:41] has the right to vote and see if drawing these lines are appropriate? Do you

[56:48] think that's would be appropriate? What is the rush?

[56:58] All I'm going to say is based on everything I'm hearing is we have two

[57:01] we're looking at two separate things and one

[57:07] which is the change in the population which has happened and even if there are

[57:11] still civilians living at forall village if 39 housing units have been taken out

[57:17] of the mix and anyone remaining at Holly Village is gone now because now it's

[57:22] entirely empty and the Woodlands is now student housing for Rosal and Franklin

[57:28] and under their jurisdiction. Then irrespective of this other issue,

[57:35] we now have an imbalance in the population which is what the data was

[57:39] addressing that I saw when I sat and talked with Kim Race. And that's what

[57:45] we're trying to rectify. They are not the same thing.

[57:51] » Mr. Mayor, >> two different issues,

[57:53] » Mr. Mayor um what what was the percentage population larger

[57:59] » the data in front of me >> do you remember the data

[58:03] » satisfied my discussion >> to see the data and to see those facts

[58:08] and figures >> data

[58:10] don't have that available wait no no no no

[58:17] » let's let's become >> right

[58:21] » so as as We went to every alt except for alderman Coleman. There was a a

[58:30] population and I I refer I don't know if dad do you have any of that information

[58:35] that that is being >> discussed at this time.

[58:39] » He had to go to another meeting. >> Okay.

[58:43] » I think the best I think the best way to look at is you look at the packages that

[58:46] you all received. You see that the balance for the um uh ideal population

[58:54] for each one of the ws is 2412 >> law requires a deviation of plus or

[59:01] minus five on that 2412. The fourth ward for example had well

[59:06] over 5% of of the population. They had the largest population uh in in their

[59:12] ranks. So there had to be a tweak in order to turn around and balance off

[59:18] from the fourth ward from the fifth ward for every ward. Um we did some balancing

[59:23] and shifting in alderman Evans. So it was to bring it to the deviation based

[59:28] on the new population numbers based on the loss of population that we had in

[59:32] Hollyy Village for um if the question I guess the question

[59:38] that may may assist here or not if I can continue

[59:41] » what's the data >> is I'm sorry

[59:43] » what's the data in the war how many people We lose in that ward. 39 houses

[59:49] is not a lot. That's like a public. >> No, but the whole 81 acres in Holly

[59:53] villages, >> but we don't do land. We do people. So

[59:57] 39 people. >> We do units of houses though.

[59:59] » Correct. >> Not acres.

[1:00:01] » Correct. Correct. >> But you said 39 houses.

[1:00:04] » No, 39 was in Forest. >> That's just Forest.

[1:00:08] » That's just Forest. >> Correct.

[1:00:10] » By village is every single house in Baldi Village.

[1:00:13] » Well, we've determined that not to be. We're not sure of that. What's that

[1:00:17] » of? You say every house in Holly was empty. How many people was that?

[1:00:22] » That's what I'd have to get you the numbers. I didn't bring them with me, so

[1:00:24] I can't tell you the numbers of >> because it was a high percentage that

[1:00:27] was already missing, right? >> Uh, no. I wouldn't say there was a high

[1:00:30] percentage. We >> So, why would the senator call it a

[1:00:32] ghost town? >> Because there were parts of it that

[1:00:35] looked like a ghost town. >> Okay. So, a percentage of it was already

[1:00:39] missing. >> Yes.

[1:00:40] » Okay. So, what other percentage left since 20 And since we did that the ward

[1:00:47] redistricting in 2021, how many people moved out since 2022 to 2026?

[1:00:54] » The data sets I do not have with me. I'm happy to distribute them. Again, they

[1:00:57] were presented to us when we saw the shifts and when we were looking at the

[1:01:00] maps. We also have the woodlands which the woodlands were occupied and and we

[1:01:05] don't have that. >> The data

[1:01:08] » now I think that data was presented several

[1:01:12] months ago. I mean, and you were privileged to it that you were more than

[1:01:19] welcome to have looked at it and and and uh was able to,

[1:01:26] you know, make a judgment on it. >> I I think I have a question, Mary. I

[1:01:31] think it goes right to the alderman Pullman's point. If the point So, if the

[1:01:37] point here is only that

[1:01:42] one alderman vote on this because they don't live in the ward because they're

[1:01:48] out of office or however however it was. >> One seat is vacant.

[1:01:54] » One thing one seat is >> other than that the map should pass

[1:01:59] because if that one person didn't vote, the map should pass because we have a

[1:02:03] balanced. >> Okay. So,

[1:02:05] » one person, one vote, right? >> Correct. So, let's not have that person

[1:02:10] vote and see if it passes. Um I don't

[1:02:14] » that he has the right to vote. He hasn't been removed from office. He noted his

[1:02:18] seat vacant. He has right to he's a due process right in his seat. He was

[1:02:24] elected while living in there. >> He he has a right to notice in a hearing

[1:02:32] separate. >> Just curious. Were you aware that he

[1:02:34] moved out of his award when you were doing the redistricting?

[1:02:38] » I did not draft the redistricting ordinance.

[1:02:40] here tonight. >> Is Dan available to answer the question?

[1:02:44] » I believe he just walked into a meeting with the client. He had to jump off at

[1:02:49] » so I mean that's an important question is really it's two separate issues

[1:02:54] regardless of of where that alderman lives is the population shift is what's

[1:02:59] causing the need for redistricting. It's the It's the policies that were

[1:03:04] implemented by um >> we're saying it's a population sh

[1:03:12] it's clear that I was not invited to the meeting.

[1:03:16] » Right. Well, >> I don't I I never knew about Kim.

[1:03:19] » There were several >> I wasn't invited to the other meeting.

[1:03:23] » You're going to sit here and tell me that you did not have there was not

[1:03:28] attempts to get in touch with him. >> There wasn't. That's what I'm trying to

[1:03:57] while we were redistricing while we were redistricing

[1:04:01] in committee >> in which we held several of them you

[1:04:07] were there >> very possible.

[1:04:10] » No no it's not very either on Zoom or here in person. Did we show the data in

[1:04:15] committee? Cuz everybody would have seen the data if we showed it in committee.

[1:04:20] » Did Did we show the data in committee? I think there was private meetings like

[1:04:24] she said she spoke with Kim and Kim showed her the data.

[1:04:29] » Oh, well, I'm sorry. Mr. Kim showed her showed her. I don't know who Mr. Kim is.

[1:04:34] Mr. Kim never called, so I don't I have no idea who that is. And we're going

[1:04:39] based off of data. >> Let me ask this. Has anybody else Let me

[1:04:42] ask. I haven't seen the data. >> All did you speak to Mr. Kim regarding

[1:04:48] it? >> Did you did you have an opportunity to

[1:04:51] speak with Mr. Kim regarding redistricting your war?

[1:04:54] » Yes, I did. >> I didn't.

[1:04:58] » Well, was it for >> you had an opportunity to sit down and

[1:05:02] and discuss the redistricting? >> I did.

[1:05:05] » You know I did. >> Murphy Alderman Brooks.

[1:05:08] » So, Mr. Mayor, wait. One second. Mr. had an opportunity to talk with the

[1:05:13] gentleman that was responsible, qualified, and certified to be able to

[1:05:21] redistrict our wards. >> Ottoman Coleman had that same

[1:05:26] opportunity. He decided not to. >> No, no, don't lie on me.

[1:05:31] » Okay. I'm sorry. >> I'm sorry. I apologize about my my

[1:05:36] mistake. For some reason, for unknown reasons Mr.

[1:05:43] Alderman Coleman was not contacted as he said

[1:05:50] I I don't know I don't know why Mr. Kim out of all the other alderman that were

[1:05:57] contacted and was and was notified why Alderman Coleman did not have that

[1:06:04] opportunity. >> So Mr. mayor.

[1:06:07] » So, we all agree I did not have the opportunity. So, now I'm asking my

[1:06:12] order, can I have an opportunity to to discuss this with this new information

[1:06:16] that I've presented and the new information that you guys have? Can I

[1:06:20] have an opportunity to talk? >> You know, let me just say in regard in

[1:06:24] regard because we're ready to move forward, Alderman, we're ready to move.

[1:06:28] We we we respected you from last meeting saying that you wanted time

[1:06:33] » and and now it's time to move forward. >> No, no. I asked for time and I said to

[1:06:38] present and as I promised I asked for time everybody has packets today that I

[1:06:45] spent a lot of time working on. Okay. And as I promised the alderman give me

[1:06:49] some time. Let me get some things together so I can present it to the art

[1:06:54] so that we all know what we're voting on. Right? And I withheld and and I did

[1:06:59] that. So now that you have the evidence or you have the information, we need

[1:07:04] more time to look it over and you guys can investigate it and I can talk to Mr.

[1:07:09] Kim and we can as an audition

[1:07:19] to talk to Mr. Kim.

[1:07:24] » So can you give me an opportunity to talk to Mr. Kim? I'm telling you, I

[1:07:29] didn't have that opportunity. >> You decided not to.

[1:07:32] » Well, did I have the opportunity when we did the city when when we did the city

[1:07:41] and they came in and they rebranded the city. I didn't have an opportunity then.

[1:07:46] » If you if you were at these council committee meetings

[1:07:49] » and then we did the master plan and I wasn't invited to the master plan. This

[1:07:55] is like the fourth meeting I haven't been invited to. So at at a certain

[1:08:01] point it's no longer a coinc if if you attend

[1:08:08] council meetings >> I do

[1:08:10] » and committee meetings >> besides the ones you don't let me submit

[1:08:14] to me you always have an opportunity

[1:08:19] whether you're uh brought into the meeting and I think every council member

[1:08:24] here anytime you say you need to to be zoomed in they've always voted get you

[1:08:29] in. Is that not Have there ever been a time you not been able to zoom in?

[1:08:34] » Yes. When you and the attorney talked and you didn't let the alderman know

[1:08:39] that I was in the lobby, so the alderman didn't get an opportunity to vote to let

[1:08:44] me in. >> You read that a few times.

[1:08:46] » Question on the >> I'd like to call the question.

[1:08:49] » Question on the vote. >> I'd like to call the question.

[1:08:54] » Can I motion? I have a pardon me. a motion and a second on the floor already

[1:08:59] and I am calling the question which means

[1:09:01] » I know I >> which means that I am asking that we

[1:09:06] proceed with the vote. We have a motion and a second properly made on the floor.

[1:09:13] I'm calling the question. You're the expert on Robert's rules. You should

[1:09:17] know what that means. >> Murphy deformed.

[1:09:20] » That's the second time. I and I'm and I'm asking for the court.

[1:09:25] » Calm down. >> I what I just as necessary

[1:09:28] » what I just asked. I did. >> I think she she heard

[1:09:33] » Mr. May the question on the >> Mr. Mayor. I have I have a point of

[1:09:38] order and I have a parliament question which trumps the call the question. I

[1:09:45] have a point of order. I have a point of order which trumps the question.

[1:09:53] See, I I thought you just apologized everybody and you said you was going to

[1:09:56] follow wherever rules of order, right? I do. I have a Do you have to address me

[1:10:01] with a point of order? And I have a question before I vote

[1:10:05] » on you for a vote.

[1:10:10] » I have a point of order is what I have. >> You can vote yes, no.

[1:10:19] » Move on.

[1:10:27] vote. >> I'm not non voting. I still have the

[1:10:30] floor. >> No, you No, you don't.

[1:10:31] » Yes, I do have I have >> The vote is being taken.

[1:10:34] » No, you can't call the question. I have a point of order.

[1:10:38] » The vote >> and I have a question before I vote. So,

[1:10:41] I can ask >> The vote has already started. There's no

[1:10:44] more. >> No, you started the vote.

[1:10:48] » You started the vote, sir. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Point of

[1:10:53] order. Point of order. The attorney does not have the right to run the meeting.

[1:10:58] She cannot tell Lori to call the call. >> He's not an alman.

[1:11:07] » That's the questions on the vote of uh

[1:11:12] » are we going toally are we illegally going to put Dante in office and he

[1:11:17] shouldn't be voting today? That is not

[1:11:22] » is he's the only property that we drew into that line. He moved then we redrrew

[1:11:28] the district map so he can still be an art. That's what really happened. So in

[1:11:33] order for us to cover Dante, we have to vote to amend this map so that the man

[1:11:39] Dante can still stay sitting up here. And that's illegal, right? So that's

[1:11:43] what I'm saying. I'm not voting on anything illegal because if I moved,

[1:11:49] y'all wouldn't change the map for me illegally. Right.

[1:11:54] » The issue The issue that I have is we have to illegally vote on this right now

[1:12:01] in order for an alderman to stay an alderman. And that is an illegal vote.

[1:12:07] And that is the issue that I have with voting for my friend Dante. I have no

[1:12:12] problems with him, but I won't do anything illegal

[1:12:17] considering I have a pending case. And this is illegal. Illegal.

[1:12:22] » He's the only alderman that you drew out. He moved out of his ward. You

[1:12:28] redrrew the map because you're endorsing him for mayor.

[1:12:32] » It is illegal. Out of all the alderman, you pick one alderman

[1:12:36] » alderman your vote >> and you move his house into another ward

[1:12:41] and then you force the alderman to >> vote on it. You you stated your case.

[1:12:47] » No, you called the question. I wasn't done. I still had the floor.

[1:12:51] » We still No. Okay. Well, I challenged the chair. I challenged the chair.

[1:12:56] » And I'm the chairman now. >> And I'm saying that

[1:12:59] » and No, you never acknowledged me. See, you're out of water.

[1:13:02] » So, that's the whole point. And that's what it is. I'll have everybody I'll

[1:13:07] have this at the back counter. >> Very good.

[1:13:10] » And what this is is we have an automan registered in another ward. He's not

[1:13:14] even in his ward. And what we're up here doing now is covering it up. So, with

[1:13:19] this new map, right, it will allow that effective immediately, correct? To stay

[1:13:26] an correct? This is an ordinance addressing a

[1:13:31] redistricting that will go forward for the 2027 and 2029

[1:13:36] vote. >> Say that again.

[1:13:40] » This is addressing future voting. We are redistricting redistricting for 2027 and

[1:13:46] 2029. And and you know what the problem is? The problem is we've had three

[1:13:51] attorneys here and the last attorney said that it was effective immediately

[1:13:55] when Alderman Bobby Allen said when does it take effect and he said it takes

[1:14:01] effect immediately during the circulation.

[1:14:03] » The ordinance will be adopted immediately if it passes. However, the

[1:14:07] actual ramifications have to do with when you are voting.

[1:14:16] I just need to object. I >> I regress

[1:14:18] » I object to any information being passed to people with my address on it.

[1:14:26] » It's It's your voter registration card. >> Find it on their own.

[1:14:29] » It's public. >> I adise for not to pass out.

[1:14:33] » It's public. >> I adi then let them find it on their

[1:14:36] own. I advise to not pass out my address.

[1:14:41] » Why? My address is 1610 Sherman Road. >> You're a public official. Why wouldn't

[1:14:46] you want your residents to know where you live?

[1:14:47] » There's a vote on the floor. >> Evans.

[1:14:58] » I don't think he know anything. >> Move on.

[1:15:02] » You say yes. >> He said it already. He moved on.

[1:15:06] Alderman Ray. Yes. >> Motion carried.

[1:15:11] You can look at me all you want.

[1:15:17] » 7-2 authorization and approval of a professional service agreement with

[1:15:24] McKenna Associates uh planning group LLC in the amount not to exceed 142,000

[1:15:31] for code consulting service. Uh yeah, code consulting service.

[1:15:38] » All right. Good evening, mayor and uh city council. Um this item was

[1:15:42] previously heard by the economic development planning and zoning

[1:15:44] committee. Uh it's a proposal to enter into a professional service agreement

[1:15:48] with McKenna, the planning associates uh for our uh unified development

[1:15:54] ordinance. Currently, we have a zoning ordinance and a subdivision ordinance.

[1:15:58] Uh this firm would help us uh consolidate those into a single unified

[1:16:02] development ordinance that would govern uh zoning districts and regulations for

[1:16:06] development and use of property throughout the city.

[1:16:10] » Yes, sir. >> Before you We did get a motion or a

[1:16:13] second. So you can I'm sorry. >> Thank you.

[1:16:15] » Is there a motion and a second on 7-2? >> Second.

[1:16:21] » It's been moved by Brooks second by Alderman Murphy that uh 7-2 be passed as

[1:16:26] presented. Now go right ahead. >> My apologies. Thank you.

[1:16:30] » Um so uh this was previously discussed at the committee. Um this is the same uh

[1:16:36] terms and agreement that was discussed at that meeting except we had the final

[1:16:40] copy of the professional services agreement. So that's the reason why it's

[1:16:44] on the regular agenda this evening as opposed to the omnibus. Again, this

[1:16:48] contracts for $142,000 a not to exceed number. Um, and this would take uh, of

[1:16:54] course, over the next 18 months that we'd be working with this planning. So,

[1:16:58] I'm happy to take any questions. >> Are there any questions to u

[1:17:07] hearing? None. Roll call. >> Alderman Brooks.

[1:29:18] America. We bid the project out last year. Attached on the second page is the

[1:29:24] the bid results uh from the bidding. Pipe View was completed the work and as

[1:29:30] part of the contract we included language in there that allows uh if

[1:29:34] mutually agreeable by both sides, both the city and the contractor that we can

[1:29:39] extend it for a period of two separate times for one-year periods. Um so I'm in

[1:29:45] front of you. I spoke to Pipe View. They would like to they're in of extending

[1:29:50] the contract. Um they've done an outstanding job. Public works staff uh

[1:29:55] been really happy with the work they've done and we're here to ask your

[1:29:59] permission to extend the contract to move it forward.

[1:30:02] » Questions.

[1:30:08] Item number two is uh is uh very similar to in nature except uh this one we did

[1:30:15] not have uh an annual sanitary sewer cleaning program last year. So we are

[1:30:20] going out to bid. Uh we will uh we would like to go out to bid. We have $170,000

[1:30:25] in the budget. It's just the annual sanitary sewer cleaning project. It's

[1:30:30] nothing exciting but it's very important like the storm sewer cleaning. It's the

[1:30:35] annual maintenance work that you have to do to keep the flooding down uh and

[1:30:38] reduce SSOs, which are san sewer overflows in people's basement. Um

[1:30:46] we're we we've done quite a bit of the city already, but basically it's we're

[1:30:52] we start in one area, we work our way all the way around, and we just keep

[1:30:55] going in a circle until we get it all done and start over again in order to

[1:30:59] keep on top of things. san

[1:31:06] question, Steve. So once we get all through the city, probably because

[1:31:11] hasn't been done in years. I mean, some some areas are going to be more cleaner

[1:31:17] than, you know, others. When you start over again,

[1:31:23] do you get more bang for your buck because most of it's clean already? I

[1:31:28] mean, it shouldn't be as bad as the first time, you know? You know what I'm

[1:31:32] trying to say? >> Yes. Um it it goes faster. What we're

[1:31:35] really finding is that uh there's a lot of stuff that we don't know that we have

[1:31:39] out there. >> Uh where public works has gone out and

[1:31:44] they put in an 8 in uh sewer line uh storm sewer line going up

[1:31:50] an alley and it's completely plugged and it's not shown on any existing atlases.

[1:31:54] Right. >> Um, so when it comes to stuff like that,

[1:31:58] we're actually gaining more information because we're finding it and we're

[1:32:01] cleaning it and we can actually, okay, hey, there's a problem here. It should

[1:32:06] actually be a 12 in pipe, not a 8 inch pipe. So,

[1:32:10] but yes. Is it going to get faster and better? Yes.

[1:32:21] » May I talk about it on 16th Street? They cut the city street up. So

[1:32:29] that's still on a warranty, right? >> Correct.

[1:32:32] » And your fees on a warranty. >> Yes. There's the city is not paying for

[1:32:38] any of this. So what happened on as part of

[1:32:42] » as part of the storm sewer cleaning project? Uh we identified where we had a

[1:32:47] couple uh service lines where the contractor that installed them

[1:32:52] directionally drilled them and they actually installed them uh through our

[1:32:55] existing uh storm sewer system. So when we were in there cleaning them, we

[1:33:00] identified them. So they have to come back and they have to put in a new I

[1:33:04] think there's three or four spots where they did that. Um

[1:33:08] » five or six. >> Is there five or six?

[1:33:10] » Yeah. So they have to come back and they have to turn around and go from the

[1:33:15] water man which is out in the street and put in a new copper service line and

[1:33:19] dive it down and miss all all the storm sore and then they have to fix the storm

[1:33:25] sword as well because they put a hole through it.

[1:33:28] » Right. So the road once we fix this now because it's under warranty but that

[1:33:35] road start getting uneven again they going to be still warranty because you

[1:33:38] know how when you cut that road it's going to stop

[1:33:43] » yeah we're going to make sure that they they patch it properly and they compact

[1:33:48] the trench back fill material. >> Uh and then we're going to make sure

[1:33:51] that they're going to do a nice big patch, not a small little patch.

[1:33:55] » What's the time on this? >> Uh we should be having it here in the

[1:33:58] next I would think within the next month.

[1:34:05] » And real quick though, your your bill to oversee that goes to them.

[1:34:14] » Um, >> it should, right?

[1:34:18] » It should. >> Yes.

[1:34:23] » I mean, you know, if they did a mistake, did that type of mistake, somebody cover

[1:34:28] your cost to make sure it's done properly.

[1:34:30] » Yep. >> I will be to one of the bill that they

[1:34:35] want. >> Okay.

[1:34:42] » Yeah. Um actually that's that's uh second w there. Quick question. um the

[1:34:48] sidewalks. Um at the time that you did 16th Street,

[1:34:52] I had requested that um you replace the sidewalks to go with the street. Um the

[1:35:00] sidewalks, there was a sidewalk that was real bad. And I at the same time you did

[1:35:05] the street, I requested that you do the sidewalks as well. And you said that you

[1:35:10] want to do them. and you did a really good job on the sidewalk that I had

[1:35:16] identified, right? But there's like four places that might have been overlooked

[1:35:23] because it seemed like the attempt was there to do all the sidewalks. It just

[1:35:27] seemed like they missed a piece of it. Would is that part of the guarantee

[1:35:33] warranty? >> No.

[1:35:35] » No. Okay. That's something I would probably have to talk to the public

[1:35:38] works chair. >> Yes. Let us know the spots. Are they

[1:35:43] broken up really bad? Because that's >> Yeah, they just missed it. That's

[1:35:48] You guys did like the whole street, but there's like four blocks there. So, it

[1:35:53] was >> Yeah, give me a list and I'll I'll get

[1:35:58] it taken care of. >> Okay. I just if it was free that's why

[1:36:02] I'm asking now because it went out of warranty of free but I'm sure they take

[1:36:07] care. >> Thank you Steve.

[1:36:11] » You're welcome.

[1:36:15] Can you come up?

[1:36:28] » I just wanted you to inform everybody. Is it still going on every Thursday in

[1:36:34] awards? >> Once a month.

[1:36:36] » Once a month. Once a month. >> Once a month. Right.

[1:36:39] » For everybody at the same time or >> it's they it takes two days

[1:36:44] » and they have two sweepers and they do the entire city.

[1:36:53] » Do what? >> Which week? The first week or second

[1:36:55] week? >> I know it's on Thursday. Yeah, it's the

[1:36:59] third week. >> Third week, right?

[1:37:01] » I just want everybody. >> Right.

[1:37:04] » Okay. >> Before you sit down,

[1:37:13] » Mr. Chairman. >> Um, did you make any progress on the

[1:37:17] sweet sweeper? Uh, any information on the sweet sweeper?

[1:37:20] » It uh didn't appear to make the budget. >> Okay. All right. Okay.

[1:37:24] » Next time. >> All right. Any

[1:37:28] other questions? Okay. At this time, I'd like to close the public works committee

[1:37:33] meeting.

[1:38:05] » here.

[1:38:10] We have one item discussion of the FY 2027 appropriation or one.

[1:38:20] Good evening, council. Being that I'm the last one on this

[1:38:25] agenda, yeah, >> let's go ahead and get it started.

[1:38:28] » So, we're just here to uh to set the public hearing for uh June 15, 26 uh

[1:38:35] 2026 at 6 PM um at for our passing of our appropriation budget. Um we, as we

[1:38:44] know, we have to pass it every year by the end of the first quarter of the

[1:38:48] fiscal year. And so we want to make sure we get everything processed. Um

[1:38:52] generally it's just the budget with 5% on top of it is how we pass the

[1:38:57] appropriation. But alderman Allen we try to stay within the budget line that we

[1:39:01] pass um on last just before you say that. So, we try to

[1:39:06] stay within those parameters. And so, we're just asking for us to set

[1:39:11] the hearing date and for a um it will be published in the newspaper on June 4th,

[1:39:18] which is um we require 10 days prior to the the P uh 10 days prior to the public

[1:39:24] hearing in order for us to pass it. So, >> any questions on the appropriation?

[1:39:29] » Mr. Chairman. >> Yes. Go ahead.

[1:39:31] » Uh Tanda. >> Yes, sir. And the council meeting serve

[1:39:34] as a public hearing. >> Uh we do it before the council meeting.

[1:39:39] So the mayor will open up the um the meet the public hearing. We have the

[1:39:44] public hearing. We'll close it and then we'll start the public the council

[1:39:47] meeting. >> The question is do we even have to have

[1:39:50] a public hearing? Can we >> Yes. Yes, we do.

[1:39:52] » Okay. So public hearing and council meeting is two separate things.

[1:39:55] » Oh yes, absolutely. >> All right. Well, we we we will have the

[1:39:59] public we the public hearing inside of the council meeting if that makes sense.

[1:40:04] » But it' be two separate things. >> The council meeting doesn't serve as a

[1:40:09] public hearing. >> Correct. That is correct. No, we are

[1:40:11] going to have official public beach hearing.

[1:40:16] 6 >> o'm

[1:40:24] a question. >> What's that?
