28
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,440

recording or is it necessary?

36
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,720
» Um, try to think what the exact wording

37
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,960
is, but I believe we can play it just to

38
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:20,320
make sure we're covered if that's all

39
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:20,560

was posted on the agenda?

58
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,680
>> Uh through the chair, yes, we should

59
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,439
read the purpose of the meeting.

60
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:09,679
>> Okay.

61
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:11,360
So, the purpose of this meeting is for

62
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,080
council to discuss a proposed pre-motion

63
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,760
resolution framework for the legal

64
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,760
matter regarding Bertrren versus

65
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:24,150
Township of Rome uh 20262

66
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,920
and to discuss the notice of application

67
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:32,390
to HRTO file number 2026-67479-1

68
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,480
and to appoint an interimm treasurer

69
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,040
prior to the restricted acts period. Of

70
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,120
course, as many of you know, uh we will

71
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,120
be lame duck here in a couple days and

72
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,800
then we wouldn't be able to pass any of

73
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,200
these motions at that time. And I

74
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,480
believe we're lame duck. And madam

75
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,000
clerk, you can clarify because there's

76
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,920
only a potential of five counselors

77
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:52,080
returning. Correct.

78
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,840
>> Um through the chair, yes. At this time,

79
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,280
we're anticipating we'll be in the

80
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,200
restricted acts period effective

81
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,879
tomorrow at 2 p.m. Um, as he noted right

82
00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:02,959
now, we would have potentially five U

83
00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:04,959
members who were feasibly able to return

84
00:03:04,959 --> 00:03:07,280
based on nominations of our offices

85
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,200
being sought. So, at that point, that

86
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,959
would put us below the restrict the

87
00:03:10,959 --> 00:03:13,920
threshold. So, that's our anticipated um

88
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:15,519
movement at this time. However, we do

89
00:03:15,519 --> 00:03:17,360
have until tomorrow at 2 p.m. for that

90
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,319
to fully take effect. And just if I can

91
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,000
go back up one item, when you have the

92
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,080
chance, Mr. Mayor to adopt the agenda.

93
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,920
>> Oh, I'm sorry. Yes. Uh, go ahead and

94
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:32,869
read the motion to adopt the agenda.

95
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:34,560
At the special council meeting regarding

96
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,400

Goff, second by councelor Snutch. Any

109
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:08,319
questions on the agenda?

110
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:11,840
Not seeing any. All in favor?

111
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,280
Any opposed? That is carried. Thank you.

112
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,519
Um, disclose your pecuniary interest by

113
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:20,079
anyone. I I will have one. Oh, go ahead.

114
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:23,280
C. I I'll do mine first. It's item 5.22

115
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:25,440
of the in camera file. I am one of the

116
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,080
name parties. Councelor Bell.

117
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,759
>> Also item 5.22. Uh again it doesn't name

118
00:04:31,759 --> 00:04:34,320
anybody but uh I will recuse from that

119
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,520
as well.

120
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,120
>> Any other declarations? Counc

121
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,800
>> uh the same item.

122
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,240
>> Councelor Bell.

123
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,040
>> Same item

124
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,280
>> or deputy mayor Bell I apologize. And

125
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:46,720
counc

126
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,919
>> same item.

127
00:04:47,919 --> 00:04:49,840
>> Thank you. So then I'll remind council

128
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:51,440
there will still be two counselors left

129
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,440
which is fine and legal. They can deal

130
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,840
with the matter. However, after camera

131
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,479
when we excuse ourselves, the council

132
00:04:58,479 --> 00:05:01,360
must remain in the meeting because we'll

133
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,840
need to reconvene and pass the

134
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:05,919
adjournment bylaw and the uh the

135
00:05:05,919 --> 00:05:07,440
important one that we always have to get

136
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,680
the confirmatory bylaw. So, even though

137
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,600
we'll leave the breakout room, we'll

138
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,039
just have to wait in the waiting room

139
00:05:13,039 --> 00:05:15,039
until we're let back into council to

140
00:05:15,039 --> 00:05:18,400
wrap up the day. So, so with that, I

141
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,720
will look for a motion to move into

142
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,000
close session. Madame Clerk,

143
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,400

You can let me know when I can proceed.

166
00:06:37,199 --> 02:40:18,630
Oh, here we are.

167
02:40:18,640 --> 02:40:27,590
Oh god.

168
02:40:27,600 --> 02:40:30,319
» Uh David, your sound is on.

169
02:40:30,319 --> 02:40:32,960
>> Yeah. Do you want it on?

170
02:40:32,960 --> 02:48:19,510
>> No, we are still not in the meeting.

171
02:48:19,520 --> 02:48:28,230
Are we coming back, folks?

173
02:48:30,640 --> 02:48:31,840
Rebecca

174
02:48:31,840 --> 02:48:33,680
>> for the cherry. Yes, we are coming out

175
02:48:33,680 --> 02:48:35,279
of close session.

176
02:48:35,279 --> 02:48:38,080
>> Okay. I got a text from Council Goff. uh

177
02:48:38,080 --> 02:48:40,640
he had connected. We lost him and he

178
02:48:40,640 --> 02:48:42,319
isn't able to get back in. So, he's

179
02:48:42,319 --> 02:48:44,240
having technical difficulties, but I

180
02:48:44,240 --> 02:48:46,080
believe we still hopefully have a

181
02:48:46,080 --> 02:48:49,840
quorum. Yes, looks like we do. But I

182
02:48:49,840 --> 02:48:53,359
will confirm he texted me his regrets. I

183
02:48:53,359 --> 02:49:00,710
just want to reopen our agenda.
