City Council - Regular Meeting

Very quiet. We have one minute. You can speak in Tamil. I sent a message to the CET manager that it will be a little late due to traffic in the city. I would like someone to tell the Mayor about this. I know. I knew she would listen. She would listen.

Okay, friends.

Let's start today's yoga. Will Recorder Hajar call? Councilor Duggar is here. Council Mayor Pree is here. Councilor Hassan is here. Councilor Kimmy is here. Councilor Peter is here. Councilor Diwan is here. Mayor Bhatti is here. Okay, even though today's agenda is small, it is important. There are a lot of things in this. We have hip-hop as a subject. We are here. We have a lot of agendas. The report of the city manager, a general statement, and two work sessions that continue to end new issues in the council. So let's start today. If you don't know, hip-hop awards are being given on Saturdays and Sundays. So today I am conducting an audio presentation. In the early 1970s, hip-hop was established in the South Bronx and it was a message to the people of silent cities. This place has become the most popular part of music in the world of young people and urban communities. In the direction of DJ who takes bits from popular songs starting with jazz, soul and disco and creates loops, MC Mark described contemporary realities in a poetic way. Break dancers, beatboxers, graffiti artists, etc. are allowed to present their skills and start performances. The hip-hop culture in Odhigan is growing in the direction of a large group of people who represented Odhigan in regional, national and international events. Odhigan artists have represented Odhigan in many ways, from international competitions, advertisements, corporate campaigns, regional shows to presidential election campaigns. Beaverton is trying to attract people and groups who are growing local wealth, especially when they praise it as a well-developed, diverse, and good business. Today's focus is on the importance of the hip-hop culture and accepting its social and financial value in Beaverton. This acknowledges the efforts of Beaverton to strengthen the relationship between the Beaverton city and the hip-hop community in Tamil Nadu, to strengthen the relationship between the Beaverton city and the hip-hop community in Tamil Nadu, to strengthen the relationship between the Beaverton city and the hip-hop community in Tamil Nadu, to strengthen the relationship between the Beaverton city and the hip-hop community in Tamil Nadu, Mayor, CET Council

Thank you. Thank you, Mayor, CET Council. This is a happy occasion. Chris Suzuki, Rearer Executive Director. You may remember the year-long hip-hop expo we held last year. First of all, I say that this is one of the first occasions where such an event is held in a performing arts center, in the name of Rhythm and Revolution. This would not have been possible without the help of our advisory committee. This is the community leader who has been working for the community for the last 30 years in Portland. Youth Leader No matter how much I talk about him, it's not enough. The professional Portland Trailblazers DJ, along with him, and our education manager, Erin Nigel Smith, have a huge relationship with him. He is also an artist who has been nominated for the Grammy Award. He brought all this together for this community. That's why I, DJ OG1, took over this. I don't know how to continue with this.

The most hype man, Chris.

But he's a good guy. I'll call you to introduce me to some places. But thank you. Thank you. This was a great experience for me. Unfortunately, my PDX Hip-Hop news co-founder died in a fight against cancer in 2018. I know that he was happy to see how much this has grown in the last 11 years. As far as we are concerned, this is about unity. This is about unity in the world, and about celebrating in the world about the things that are often highlighted in hip-hop. Hip-hop often has the ability to protest evil. So our duty is not only to bring the community together, but also to help the leaders in the next generation grow. That's all I have to say about this. So this is just another step to get to that goal. Next is Otigon Hip-Hop Festival. That's our goal. I have some connections with the person who gave me this award. So, let's make this possible. As a child who grew up in California in the 90s, I think this is the greatest achievement I've ever done. So, let's take a photo. Participate in the HIP-HOP STAR AWARDS, which takes place every Sunday.

Every Sunday at 3 PM. A small event. Adi Adi Okay, let's move on to the opinions of the participants. The council needs to register online or directly to receive opinions. Registration ended this afternoon. All the registrations for this event are done via CET Recorder Office via email or by phone. Two people have registered to give their opinions in today's event. Let me tell you in detail, the participants have the opportunity to talk about things that are not in the agenda. Don't expect that the council will respond to their opinions. Since it is time for the council to hear the opinions of the community, we welcome all those who speak in the news. We would like to have an atmosphere of mutual respect. The members of the community can make opinions on issues and make suggestions, but it should be without barriers and barriers. It affects the participation of others who participate directly or online. At the time of general comments, council members do not stop anyone. We expect the members to show the same respect to others. The members will only have 3 minutes to give their opinion. If you need further advice, the CET manager or CET recorder will take care of it. So I need to come ahead of Alisa. No. Is she online?

I don't think she's online. Okay. Tyler, I saw him outside.

Did he go outside? Are you sure he's sitting outside? Okay. Okay, let's move on to the report of the CET Manager. Okay, the Mayor and Council members are getting a lot of support. Give us a minute to take a PowerPoint. Today, I have a small update for you about the main measures taken by the city. 1 Beaverton Street is closed. Good roads are starting here. And we have just started this campaign. This is just the beginning of a campaign to explain to the residents how the city of Paribhalana, which was launched on August 1, is being developed. Therefore, this website works as the basis for the information about our city of Paribhalana project. In addition, it will allow the residents to understand how the state of the land on each street in the city and the Paribhalana methods that have been implemented in Bavi are progressing. Stripping, crack sealing, etc. are all part of this process. We are also involved in the process of creating a video platform on social media. Therefore, we will show you the video of our street workers who are involved in this process. They are added to the website. In the next few years, we will continue to develop this website. We will publish photos of the past and future and inform the public about the possible activities through the city administration fees. So this is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks and months. Next slide, Devaayi. I am happy to know that the city is operating in an equity atlas, that internal investigations have begun, and that it can be released immediately. I know that the community is interested in knowing what our Equity and Inclusion Office is doing. We are planning to come back with more detailed information on this topic. However, we thought it would be good to provide a small update and detailed details about one of the interesting things our equity team is doing in the future. The first equity atlas of the city is a new data tool that makes clear where the needs of the community are most concentrated. Also, by operating in such a way, it will be possible to make more transparent decisions for the people. This is a mapping tool. It brings together information on population statistics, poverty, poverty, health, and situation. The aim of this is to provide a way to see where the needs of the community are concentrated in the city and to make it easy for the citizens and community members to participate. We can do this in Daryo's base when we take such program incentives, grant requests, and direct decisions. This tool utilizes the local information that is in high demand. It includes language, education, geography, and other popular information. As part of the development of this tool, we are currently experimenting with it in CET projects. This is to check if there are any changes or changes to be made. At the end of this year, we would like to make this more popular. So, we are very excited to see this become a reality. Thank you very much to our Office of Equity and Inclusion staff who worked hard on this project. Next slide is Devai. I am very happy to know that the law on our boards and commissions has started working. There are 36 levels in various levels. We are looking for volunteers who would like to participate in the major decisions of the city. So, let us know who you think will be interested in this. The application forms are available on our website. It will take 10 or 15 minutes to complete. We are trying to make it as easy as possible. The deadline for submitting applications is October 5. The deadline starts in January. The next slide is Devai. At the end of this venal period, numerous activities took place in Beaverton. I would like to mention some of them. After 2019, we had our first picnic in the park and it was a great success. This took place in Harmony Park, a park in South Beaverton's new Twin Hills Parks and Recreation District. This was the first activity that took place in that park. This was a great opportunity for the residents to come together in a friendly and pleasant atmosphere with the residents. Approximately 500 guests participated. We gave about 400 hot dogs. We distributed more than 100 books from Bookmobile. So, thank you Mayor, councillors. Many of you were able to see there. Many residents told us that they were happy to see the city and the city office. Then, the Beaverton Night Market was also a great success this year. It was a wonderful holiday. More than 8,500 people, 10 artists, and 68 artisans participated. In addition to the 31 artists, 56 people participated in the festival and the residents also participated in the festival. My children were also there. We were able to enjoy good food and a wonderful time. It was a wonderful event. Therefore, I would like to thank all the volunteers and the community volunteers who helped to make these two events and our other venal events possible. If you have missed it, let us know that we are not ready to leave you with wonderful events during the venal period. On September 12, there will be a Beaverton Celebration Parade. Then, because the air quality of the smoke was bad, we had to change our National Night Out. So, it has been moved to September 22, Wednesday. So, take it into account in your calendar. We hope to see you there. Thank you. Thank you, Mayor.

I would like to approve the Council Consent Agenda and the Contract Review Board Consent Agenda.

I would like to approve the Council Consent Agenda and the Contract Review Board Consent Agenda. As a reminder to the community, we use Consent Agenda to quickly resolve the issues discussed through our one-to-one briefings. This is something that we have seen many times. Now, will Recorder Hajar call?

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes

You can ask questions to council to help you make decisions. I'm Shubha Sayanam, Mayor and CET Councillor. My name is KC Graziano. I'm the Parking Operations Manager. I'm here today to talk about the restrictions imposed by the Beaverton Code related to the Downtown Parking Permit Program. This is the first time that there have been any changes to this program. Tonight, I'm going to tell you two things. The first thing is to accept the restrictions imposed by the Beaverton Code. The second thing is to accept the Downtown Parking Permit. Next slide, please. So, let's come to the first thing. That is, the Beaverton codes are 6.2.3.6.2.3.9. Now, before downtown Beaverton became a lively place like today, the downtown parking permit program began in 1997. The development in downtown Beaverton took place. Hundreds of residents, dozens of businesses, and thousands of visitors came here. As you know, the development of the on-street parking permit program has not made any major changes in the program. We have changed the program to make it easier to handle, but it continues as it was when it was first adopted. The CET Council has required changes to the program, and the residents and community are working with it. The permit program is part of the fourth and fifth stages of the downtown parking plan. The required code measures include four things. The right of the council to approve a parking permit under the Down Down Permit Act. The right of the council to approve a parking permit under the Down Down Permit Act. The right to approve a parking permit under the Down Down Permit Act. It is mandatory for permit holders to have regular vehicle registration. We have made it mandatory for everyone who parks on the roads. Also, if a permit holder tries to forget his license plate or show his ID on it, the permit can be revoked. However, changes in the Residential Permit Program are not part of this Code. The Beaverton Code clearly states how Residential Permit Programs should be defined. The Code is used to define how Residential Permit Programs should be defined. The Code is used to define how Residential Permits should be defined. Next slide, please. Oh, actually, can we go one step back? I'm sorry. As you can see, some of our next episodes will be released at the end of this month or at the beginning of September. Yes, if this code is approved, we will introduce a new map to the council with the permitting locations of more people. We will be here in October for the permit fee work session. In addition, we are actively working to make major changes to the residential permit codes. You will be able to see them this year or next year. Next slide please. The second action is that if the code is accepted, the map will be accepted. The permissions and locations of this map are equivalent to the Beaverton code, but the permit is removed from the code and a map is allowed to be accepted by the council. This will speed up the permit program, and when changes occur each time, it will help to avoid the possibility of the Beaverton code being copied. After community arrangements, the residents will again receive a new permit in October. Again, even if we cannot change the location of the residential permit today, the residents are working to bring more code changes to the downtown program. When the Beaverton code is changed to the residential parking permit program during this time, the council of residents will invite you to update the clouds as needed today. Thank you for your time, I am happy to answer any questions.

Do you have any questions for the council? Shady. Since there are no questions, I will now open the public hearing. Is there anyone interested in talking about this crime? No, someone has registered. But they are not online or live or present. Okay. I am now ending the public hearing. There are two things to discuss tonight. First, the ordered ordinance. Then, if you agree to the ordinance, that's fine. Let's start from the ordinance. Mayor, I request the Weaverton Code Section to approve 6.2.2 Ordinance Council. In addition, 6.2.39 and parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking permits, parking Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes, Mayor. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas.

I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas.

I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Beaverton Parking Permit and Downtown Parking Permit areas. I request the council to accept the permit for the Downtown Be I am very happy that you have been able to take action to speed up the process. So I think this is a very good move. I hope that the changes in the parking permit code and the parking permit areas will be of greater benefit to the people who park in the parking district. Even though I voted against the parking enforcement, I intend to vote in favor of this amendment today. This week alone, about 9% of the population of the parking program in Nilavallu were connected to me. I have instructed them to come to the councillors who brought this proposal. Therefore, I expect that you will respond to our community members who voted for parking enforcement without any advance notice. They are currently in the CET hall. They are struggling to connect with the employees in this matter. Therefore, even though I am still having a lot of doubts about the parking enforcement, even if it is to determine who will vote today. So, my vote today is that I agree with what is happening in the parking enforcement. So, will Councillor Hust speak?

Yes, some of us are connected, but let me say it as a record. I am voting in favour of our continued efforts to ensure that we move forward and improve. I am sending my wishes and questions to those who are close to me. Because I think this will be a meaningful discussion. I don't think there's anything special in this code to deal with people's health issues. So I'm happy that this is moving forward. But we need to make sure that the discussions on parking are continuing. Okay, will the recorder vote be held?

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes We will start our work session with senior program manager Scott Keller and program coordinator Elizabeth Cole. When the session is over, each councillor will have the opportunity to ask questions to the representatives and give their opinions about the session. Okay, let's get started.

Greetings to the Mayor and CET councillors. I am Scott Keller, Senior Program Manager for Recycling and Reuse. I am accompanied by our Recycling Program Coordinator, Elizabeth Cole. They will guide you through the first work session. I will handle the second one. So, I am giving Elizabeth the opportunity.

Thank you. Thank you for inviting us here today. Oh, okay. Stand next to me. Okay. Thank you. Let's move on to the next slide, Devaai. Today, I have come to discuss some changes to be made in the Karmaliniya Reuse Act. I will give a brief description of the changes received in the Agenda Bill. After that, I will give an opportunity for discussion and your questions and opinions. These changes in the law are mainly included in these three sections. The government has announced that the recycling of the state is subject to modernization. Special recycling measures have been removed from the CET Code to make it more flexible and to act according to the changes. According to your opinions, the method is to implement it through a policy or a comprehensive law. Our clean fleet policy has been updated and updated. The time limit for announcing the change in the franchise has increased from 60 days to 90 days. This will help to meet the agenda bills required by the council. Most of the changes are in the franchise system. This allows franchisees to avoid unnecessary things and avoid new franchise requests. Beaverton Solid Waste System is a non-exclusive franchise. This allows franchisees to request businesses they are interested in. This was tested for the first time in 2025. It showed the need to update this part and make the procedures clear. Next slide We have come here today to know the opinions of the council regarding the changes made. We will continue to accept your suggestions and make changes, and submit them to the general discussion and council meeting on 1st October and November. As I mentioned earlier, this is the time for discussion. I have included the three questions in the agenda bill in this slide. My presentation ends here. So let's start the discussion and questions. Thank you. Okay, do you have any questions?

Counselor Teeter, I don't have any questions, but I would like to say that I appreciate the changes we are making here. Oh, our code language is just to make it a little more clear and easy to understand. Thank you, Councillor Hasen.

Yes. And the first question. Where are we in terms of the timeline? If you have spoken about this, please forgive me. But are we getting feedback from the franchisors or are we writing this and doing it as the next step? Yes.

They have had a chance to give feedback before this draft. If we continue with the first reading, they may be able to give feedback. That's why. Then when we turn it into a speech, they can come if they are interested, if that's okay. Yes, okay. Then at the general public opinion time, they can still talk. Okay.

I remember that we had a holler that tried to make it a franchise. Do we know if anything is being implemented in this? I'm sorry, I don't know. Yes, of course.

That's where many parts of the franchise system and the process of making a new franchise come to light. And, we avoided unnecessary things in it, and made it clear to the new franchisee to edit the process in the code. Okay. Yes, that's right. I just asked. I don't have any specific feedback now.

If there's anything, I'll let you know. Thank you. Counselor Dagger Thank you.

I noticed that most of the parts of the fleet that needed to be relocated were terminated, but it seems that we have been using diesel for a few years. Can you tell me why we are involved in this? Because the state has regulations and requirements. The main reason I am asking this is whether it is for us to pay for relocating via fees or something else, right? Then if a diesel engine and the vehicle related to it have no problem, then it seems to be an illegal law to change it unnecessarily. So why did we change from 12 to 15 or why is there such a change, can you explain to you? When the diesel engine was converted to natural gas, the purpose of our plan was to eliminate the changes to vehicles related to the cycle. Some things we had to do within a certain period of time. When we were preparing that part, it was our goal to avoid all these things. A complete thing like this should not be done again in 2020. Therefore, there should still be a lot of other things to be done. In the section 48240, I am looking at the Clean Efficient Fleet. I don't know which page this is. Page 26. It is about the relocation of a fleet. It is still in it. It has been reduced from 12 years to 15 years. I was wondering why we did that. Even if we don't need to remove it from here, it is better for the situation that a vehicle is not used for as long as the Malinigarana Manathandangal is operating.

Yes, I don't know what is the need of a pure fleet. So let's definitely check it out. Okay. But it is very important to reduce the old, reuse it, and recycle it. So it is in the front. We are in the same opinion. We will ensure that the language is exactly what we intended. That's enough. Yes, thank you. Yes. Also, I think you are trying to avoid unnecessary things. As you said, it is not a problem for the trucks that operate in these places. Yes.

The things that operate properly have to be changed. Yes.

Yes. Yes.

Thank you.

No, Councillor Duggar, I think this is a good finding. The city is proud of the integrity of our fleet. We have been able to park more vehicles on the road for a long time than the cities around us. I know this is not only affecting us, but this is a good finding. I really admire the activities that are being carried out for this purpose. So, if this is new to you, I can show you how the code will look like in the future. Often, this has to be changed in discussions with the public. That is why it is necessary for many people to work as a coordinator for the code examinations. We have already talked about the help of the EU. But sometimes they don't understand it. Even though many have investigated, the council still has questions. Personally speaking, when such code examinations came, it was not included in my preliminary report. Instead, I would like to see the tree code in the laws related to trees. This is what I told you in the previous meeting. So this is not a new description. This requires the attention of the CET attorney. This requires time to find out. This requires a general question. Also, this is a copy of a policy that we had already implemented. So I think, from now on, this is not about the CET manager. The council is trying to implement all this before discussing it. The council has the right to decide the process when using so many policies. Because I am sure that this council was required by you to act in accordance with the law more than such investigations. Still, this is in front of us today. This is a good move. The reason why the Council often does not make large code packages like this is because this is not the way the city wants to operate. These are all laws. It is very difficult to change them. That is why we did not want to code in this way when we were working in IC, ICE, etc. Because it is here today for opinions. A general discussion is needed for this. For this, a large number of people are needed. But in other ways, the council can give direct instructions to the employees and make things quick. How many changes have to be made in these rules and code examinations, We would like to remind you that we are generally looking for help from consultants who are outside. Therefore, I have a request to the CET attorney and CET manager. I would like to know what you are going to do in the court next year. The council must be able to comment on it. In addition, we must be able to give instructions on how to move forward with the progress. Mr. Keller, I will not underestimate your intelligence. This is a great thing. You know how much I am interested in sustainability, right? That is the first thing on my list. The things we do with it. This is a great action. I am waiting to hear your response from the people. Counselor Hart.

Thank you. I especially appreciate the updates of the franchise. It feels good. Because it hasn't been a long time since it was released, right? It's not that it's out of date, but it hasn't been used on a large scale, right? That is why this was not seen as a priority, but last year we had to make a very ambitious decision. Since our code is not that clear, it did not help. That is why, Mayor, I fully understand what you are saying. Looking from the point of view of policy and social needs, I think there may be other priorities in this. However, I think this action is very important. When the Vaviyal Council or the people have equal opportunities, we will have a way to help that company or community and make the process clear. In addition, I saw that the council has the full authority to franchise. There were no insults in it. So I think it was good. Let's put it back. No, I think it was good. Let's be honest. Where it was, it was meaningless. So I approved it. Because it will make it difficult for so many innocent proposals to remain. So this is a good decision.

At the same time, due to the lack of law on cutting trees, I saw someone cutting trees in Alam today. So, when we address this issue related to franchisees, we... Did you go to the trees and get tied up?

I thought about it, but I came to the council due to traffic. Okay, then okay. Thank you for joining us this evening.

Second part.

Who do you want to talk to now? Okay. Is this it? Who is it? I can see you. Oh. Oh, I thought everything in the book is over. What do you want now? You still have something to say, right? Definitely. Please continue. Oh, no.

I think we have another work session. So, if you are satisfied with this, we can end this. Yes. We will come back to this as the first chapter in October. Okay. Thank you.

Let's move on to our next work session. We will start this work session with the two of you. So, please begin. Oh, thank you, Counselor. Our second work session is to give you a brief description. Pardon me. Before you begin, we have some strange things to do.

Okay.

Even so, before you speak, I am going to conduct the presentation that requires our unique constitutional law. I am affected by the corruption and misuse of goods in Karamaliniyam and Beaverton. In this work session, I am aware that there is a possibility of conflict of interest in the fight of interest and conflict of interest, as there are discussions about goods that can be used by the residents of the city and those who use the service. In such circumstances, the struggle of the people may have to be expressed, but it will not stop the people involved in this from fully participating in today's work session. Next year, we expect a great solution. I asked the CET attorney today what the next year means. He has said that he will tell you the details later. However, if we agree to this agreement, we must tell you that it will have to be closed. Even though this is a problem for the cities, the legislature feels that this is not a problem. I urge my fellow councillors to conduct a similar process. You can say, I agree with this proposal. So let's move forward. I agree with this proposal. Today we are not conducting any voting. So this is just a discussion. I agree with this proposal. That is why I am expressing my concern for the candidates. You have said good and legal things. Go on. I agree with this proposal.

I agree with the proposal of the Mayor.

That is why I am expressing my concern for the candidates.

All of them have concerns for the candidates. Okay. The concerns for the candidates are because they are closed because we are closed. They don't have any special restrictions. Okay, Mr. Keller, you can continue now.

So, our second work session is all about this year's income growth. However, we would like to give you an overview of some of the details that you need to know about this year's income growth, as well as other employment updates related to unemployment. Since we have received your attention, this will help us in the next year's income growth process. So, the next two slides. First, the five franchisees of Beaverton, Malinia, Recycling, Sevena, Dadakal, are submitting annual financial and operational reports to all markets. Our residents and a chartered accountant together review those reports and prepare a comprehensive financial report. According to the Beaverton Code, the net operating profit of our franchisees is 9%, which is up to 7-11%. The operating profit for 2026 is 9.7%. This is the basis of our Shubharshi that should not be changed in Nireks this year. Although Nireks do not need to grow, there are various plants that can be grown in Nireks. The largest part of Nireks is Malini Samskarana Nirek. This has grown by about 9% this year. We also see high costs in terms of health insurance, compensation for compost, truck maintenance, etc. The chart on the right side of the screen shows the total cost of the 35-gallon cart and other expenses. This year marks the first full year of recycling modernization. The new law requires that the manufacturers of the products produced should contribute to the recycling cost. Recently, Pro Dhanasahayan is now a producer responsibility organization that has provided recycling materials. This change has reduced our total recycling content by nearly 90%. We expect that these expenses will continue in the beginning. Even if all the expenses of other cities in Bavi are not paid, this is the same as this year's expenses. Therefore, we do not intend to increase the amount. Therefore, in the next slide, we will go to the local service updates, then to a metro update, and then to some details at the local level. Last year, you had accepted the offer of temporary clean-up containers. This auction has been designed for the cleaning of small houses rather than a simple drop box. This is clear. This is a pre-existing price decision. This program started last October. The reporting period for this report ended in December. Therefore, we have not received much information about this so far. Therefore, we will inform you about how that program will go in the next reporting period. In connection with that, we are continuing to operate in the apartment communities, especially in apartment communities that include metro halls and other local communities. As we mentioned earlier, a multi-family composting pilot program is also underway. It took some time to start this, and it was an effort to find some property managers who were ready to test it in apartment communities. But six properties have been operating with us for months now. The amount of items collected, container auctions, the cost of construction, and the availability of facilities will help us to reduce the cost. In 2027, we plan to publish this information in front of the council at any time. This report will be about how all apartments in the city will be available to the residents. From 2017, it will be included in the single family program. Next slide. In 2023, Council approved a 75% discount program for families who are eligible for a guaranteed income. This program is ongoing with 250 new members each year. Now, in the third year of this program, we have registered 546 families according to the July 1st count. If there are enough applicants, this number may rise to 750 by the end of the year. Once they join, they will be part of that program for two years. After that, they can apply again. If their income continues at the appropriate level, they will be able to continue in that program. This is a great help for families who are experiencing financial hardship. The last major update is that there are some changes in the laws and regulations related to glass sculpture. At present, we are getting a subsidy for glass sculpture. It is likely to end in 2027. Therefore, we will investigate whether it is appropriate to change the structure of the glass sculpture from one week to two weeks. We will also discuss the amount, cost, and lack of equipment used, whether it is suitable for the community or not. Everything is going on on a weekly basis. You don't have to think about whether it is on a weekly basis or not. Otherwise, we have to change it. We will investigate it. In 2027, it will always come to the Council as a work session. After knowing your opinions, we think it will be able to be included in the cycle by the end of next year. Next slide. Let's pay attention to the metro. A new West Side Community Drop-off Depot is being built at the base of the Cornelius Metro. This place does not operate like a traditional transfer station. That is, there will be no access to fancy Malinia trucks. Instead, it is intended as a West Side facility where Malinia, recycling items, dangerous Malinia, and other reusable items can be brought and stored on their own. Only the best facilities are available for this kind of service in Washington County, especially for the dangerous malls in the houses. So, even if Beaverton is not that close, this depot will be useful for the community. That seems to be a big deal. Since this is not like a dump yard, we are very opposed to this place because it does not provide service to Washington County. This is a very remote area of the district. This is not a safe area at all. There is no such thing as a safe area for urban development to be built in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area in such a remote area The decision to increase traffic in North Beaverton is announced by Metro residents. Next slide. The Recycling Modernization Act was passed on July 1, and the first year of it was completed. The next steps are in progress. As mentioned earlier, the recycling and processing fees are now in the form of our monthly fees, so we don't have to increase them this year. They are paying costs for producers, or for producers who sell goods in the market, they are paying CA and CA costs. In some communities in Otigan where recycling facilities were not available before, there is a rapid development of facilities. There is also an increase in the number of recycling centers that our residents go to. To ensure that recycling items reach the responsible units, RMA and RMA mainly focus on the maintenance of the facilities in a way that is not harmful to the condition or human health. New collection depots for some plastic, plastic parts, glass, and block foam-started items are opening as recycling centers in this region. Seven recycling centers opened in the metro area this week. I think the opening is today. There is one near Beaverton, but it is not in Beaverton. There will be 34 in the metro region by the end of this year. Three of them are in Beaverton, but they have not yet decided where to put them. This is not as big as the depot in the Far West Five Hills in Allen Boulevard. They are very small and should not be used for recycling in houses, but they are focused on the things that should be used as per the law. The city is also getting funding for the reduction of pollution in recycling. The pollution rate in the world is about 24%. That is, about a quarter of the people who put in recycling should not be in it. So we are working to reduce it by 10% by 2032. As shown in the slide, you can immediately see Billy the Beaver and Beak the Great Blue Heron. They are our partners who help the community to run things in a pleasant way. It helps to remind them not to put anything in recycling bins. It is not always easy to be the first in the country. However, you may hear that a federal judge in Portland will issue a federal judgment on the possibility of a recycling modernization act in July, the end of this month or September. So, you can hear some news about it. We do not expect the law to be revoked. But there may be changes in some parts of the law, and it will have to be done by us, the state, or the authorities. But the 1st Amendment is still not clear. In California, Colorado, and many other states that have started, people accept the same laws. But in Oregon, it was the first amendment that went into effect. We are investigating the next amendments. I am ready to move on to the next slide. We would like to talk briefly about some of the things that affect our activities outside of the Council. We have responses from the Metro in the local Maliniya method. There are 36 waste sheds there. The term waste shed is equivalent to watershed. Therefore, each community has its own waste shed. We are in the metro watershed area. So, we have to accept the metro in a local way, which indicates how to handle cities for 10 years. We are at the local level of Metro Meghalaya to 2030, and there are some responsibilities that we have to fulfill in it. The things about the activities and awareness to reach the public have been highlighted in this slide. The status of the services to our homes, the types of services in the multifamily communities, the colour coding of recycling, the recycling containers, the need for business food scraps, and the need for business recycling are included in this. Metro is providing us with some of the necessities that we are trying to maintain every year. In return, they are providing us with a small amount of funding. This year, we are earning $1,18,000 for their activities. This is very little compared to the previous years, because the entire fund for business food scrap recycling was cut off by Metro this year. So, compared to what we previously earned, it is about $2 lakh less. This leads us to the loss of a life in our program. The next slide, or our last slide, is about the Opportunity to Recycle Act. Just like the needs in the metro, we also have some needs in the DEQ. The cities in different areas of the metro area have different needs. The cities with more than 10,000 inhabitants have to select 5 islands from the 7 islands and the Malini Nirmarjan from the local border. Thus, we have to do things in 12 different sections. They generally talk about the things that are given in bullet points. From the simple things like having a recycling container for everyone, to making sure that the awareness that we conduct reaches all participants four times a year. Let's count the Every Day is Recycling Day, which we give once a year, as one of them. Quote. So, that's it. Let's move on to the next slide. Do you have any questions about the program that will be completed next year? Is there anything that you would like us to do before it is completed next year? Are there any other questions related to service related to the things that we have announced? Thank you.

I think most people know that I represent Metro's recycling and trash committee in the city, whatever the name of it is. I am definitely of a different opinion in this group. For the money we lost, I was also strongly opposed to Portland. Because if recycling was easy, we would say that we should reduce, reuse, and recycle the food that grows in the 90s. But the truth is that things are handled by the community. We have to continue to educate people. We have to teach new restaurants about the food culture in restaurants because there are constant changes in businesses. Even if there are few communities in Beaverton, our people have to go there, talk to them, and encourage them to do so. So the decision to cut that fund was definitely not far-sighted. Mixed recycling should be reduced by 15%. In particular, I am very disappointed about where these small centers want to build the metro. Because our population is far and wide. They are all on the Marx line. Many of their centers have not been centered in Beaverton's heart. It is a problem for people who travel far and wide to recycle. The carbon footprint of your car, time, take your children to school, eat 150 grams of protein a day, and do all the other things on the road, this is an effort. Recycling and driving this far requires a lot from our community. There is no shortage of labor, but a 15% shortage is a challenge. I used to live in Europe. There, they used to give 3 times the price of a car. The first car I got when I was 19 was 75 euros. That week, that was all my money. Even then, I'm sure that I won't be able to put green glass recycling in a container. But I'm curious to see if we can do this in a situation where the numbers are decreasing. I would like to say that I'm here to help you. I have a life for these meetings. But we need to do more with fewer numbers. Losing a life is a big loss. This affects not only our activities, but also the entire sustainability sector. Council President

Thank you for the update. I am advocating for modern welfare systems. I strongly support it. I am eagerly waiting to hear about it. In my opinion, people are not using it as much as they intended. This leads me to my next point. When we do such things, we need a lot of encouragement. Don't just post it on Facebook. Right? I talk to people about these things all the time. I am such a person. But it is difficult to talk about temporary containers during a meeting. Yes, you have found a way for that. I have found a way. Especially in dog parks, it is difficult to say this.

But we have to find ways to make these things happen. That leads me to my next two points. I am proud of the fact that Maliniya Samskaran Nirek has not increased the number of other fees. We have to call it up from the CET Hall, right? We have to find a way to let people know about this. Because they feel that there are always more Nireks. This is a victory for the city. I think this is a victory for Pangalitha and Ekoban. We have to let everyone know what you are doing. Then I have Let's take a look. I saw a few things in the theory of consciousness about the beginning. If we want to get that number to ten percent, the theory of consciousness is very important. So I'm not going to dwell on it too much. Finally, a question. There is something that I felt when I played for the temporary constitution last year or years ago. Is there anything that I don't know? My Malay culture is very popular, but are there other things that other cities are doing that we should include in our activities? I know that you are thinking about reducing the number of glasses, but are there other things that we should pay attention to? It may not be today's question, but we also had to investigate the new methods that other cities have brought about reducing the number of glasses. And it is very important to me. When I talk about the decrease in the use of goods in the markets, I often think that our goods are not being used as much. How many of us are going to Amazon because it is the easiest way? If our garages had the capacity to store useful items, it might be necessary for my residents. Such things can only be done in front of the Municipal Assembly. I am not going into too much detail, but I want to reduce the use and bring in new services. So, this is something that is in the interest of the people. We have discussed some responsibilities related to the management of BCIP and the management of Maliniya. She has a close relationship with my BCAP-2. We have decided to come back with more discussions on this.

Thank you. Counselor Tiffnon, If you are talking about traditional clean-up containers, I feel the same as you.

This is a great service for those who live here, but many do not know about it. Can you explain in one or two sentences how people can use this service?

How can they use this? Umm...

Someone is telling you that I am doing a job in my house. I have a lot of things with me. I am trying to put them in a drop box or it is expensive. Then... We will suggest them to call their garbage hauler. It doesn't matter who it is.

There are certain rules. Talk to the hauler about what size you want. They can give you directions on what to change from your house. Are you cleaning picnic tables or dirt? They will give you the required size, and then they will take it home. They will have seven days to use the container. If they say, if not after seven days, I don't want it anymore, the hauler will come and take it. This is only for a certain amount of time. It is different from a drop box, because until it is taken, it is not known how much it will cost depending on its weight and distance. Yes, everything should be ready in the beginning. Yes, yes, that's what you wanted to know. Yes, yes, that's what I thought.

I check the website of waste management. This is the place where I live. This website is not only for beavers. Because of the special equipment here, it is not that easy for only dropboxes. Then they have a new service using crane. Have you heard about it? It is a kind of partiality. It is not available in our region. That's why many people go to the website and see it. That's why there are some regulations here. I think it's less for people. Once they have an experience, then they only know it. That's why I agree with Ashiya Vinameth. Also, what you just said will help me next time. I think this is a matter of phone call. Don't rely on the internet for such services now, because things are a little different here.

We can give you directions about the website section that is only available to Beaverton. There are general things that they provide throughout the country. However, you have to be able to access a page that says what is available in Beaverton. Yes, it's a little difficult to get there. Okay.

Then, if we talk about the use of glass bottles, it is very interesting. There is a doubt whether the number of people selling butter is decreasing, because the wine and beer industries are now in great demand. I think it is very strange to think that it is decreasing because it is decreasing so much. I am fully prepared for such discussions. If no one is using it, I feel that we are only collecting bananas. I know that the intercourse is making people confused. Recycling and modernization act. Finally, I am proud of the fact that Oregon is ahead of many things. The thing we did about the bottle bill and the beaches, that we were the first in all this, and that it leads to big discussions outside, is also a big thing. We are waiting anxiously to see what the fate will be, but it was time to do it. It is a very good news that the percentage is decreasing and the costs are starting to drop significantly. I am happy to hear that there will be no strikes this year. That's all I have to say. Thank you.

Councillor Kimmy, I am speaking for the first time tonight. I appreciate what Councillor Tiffinone and Councillor Pecker said. Thank you for not making the strike a good one. I am happy to hear that. My question is, we conduct outreach activities for social events four times a year. But I've seen you. I'm happy to see you at a picnic in the park. I haven't heard about any of my community members or anyone else in the other community members' community. What are some of your methods to reach out to community members who don't speak English? We talk a lot about cultural injustice in Aashiyavinam, and we are trying to work on it in a relatively short-term manner. We have been trying to maintain that there are not too many people who need to come to Aashiyavinam. We are trying to implement it in a way that it can be given to the right people. Most of the endowments so far have been through community action. They get references from the city or from our water program. After they check, if you are a Beaverton resident or a Malini resident, you are eligible for this. If you want to apply or if this is part of the SNAP or SNAP-like method, they will tell you that you can apply for this yourself. That's why most of it is going through that program. But this year in August, only 546 people were there, Elizabeth and I were aware of that. We were able to reach 750 people by the end of the year according to our budget. That is not what we wanted to achieve. We believe that we need to do more outreach activities to keep 750 nodes close. Do you have any message for this? Do you have any message for the community action organizations or any other cultural organizations that you are working with? Nothing like that. The community organization I mentioned earlier was a community auction in Washington County. There are other groups that we have spoken to at that event, but we don't have a specific list at the moment. Okay. I think I can work with you to make a list of other small events. You just need to give them information. They will be able to get that information to other parties. But we can try to do it in the future. It is related to some of our BCAP, BCAP activities. We had spoken that we have not yet made a good list in the city. It is just that we have to do it ourselves and find out who our members should be. There is a list there. Then, yes, we can talk. Okay, we can talk. There is a list there. It was on the diversity department.

It is on our side.

So I am happy that my team is sharing it with you. I was happy to hear that. My other question was about the tipping fee. I noticed that it increased by about 100% after Covid. Is this still possible? I am not interested in the tipping fee. The Mayor has strongly opposed that this should not be increased.

I am not interested in the tipping fee either. Councillor Kimmy, let me make things clear. I have fought for this. I want you to call the Metro.

Yes, they have strongly opposed that the tipping fee should not be increased this much. The Metro is constantly increasing this by 7, 8, and 10% each year. For that, They say that the tipping fee has to be increased because the amount of property is reduced in some ways. It is not completely reduced in houses, but it is very high in terms of construction costs. According to the state's financial statements, construction activities in this region are low. A large part of the ordinary property is construction costs. That's why the amount of Maliniyat has been reduced. That's why Metro's departmental funding is coming from this program. Employees in rural areas say that some of your programs should be cut down instead of increasing the number of employees. But Metro has not heard the words of the employees in that regard. Yes, it is. I don't think I'm trying to blame Metro, but I think it should be fair to say how much each city uses Metro. Or should it be the same for everyone? They have set a certain limit for the facilities they operate. The facilities used by other companies are generally equivalent to that of the local limit. Okay, the reason is that I am afraid. What is the extent of this? How much will they increase this? It has been almost double since 2020. So, if this continues to rise, I'm afraid we'll be guilty. Isn't it? That's a great question. I think we should forgive what has been hindered. The staff can sometimes know more about what is happening. So, we will give you more opportunities to submit questions of opposition to this. When the Mayor and others write letters, they are not ready to hear it. But if the representatives of more powerful parties agree with them, they have a chance to hear it. That's all I had to say. Thank you.

Then you know, I brought Metro here to the council. You were not so critical, not because you were not critical, but I know you are going to interfere. There are some, but they have to listen. Metro has a lot of residents. They have to reduce the number of residents to know what is happening. We are experiencing this in connection with the SHS funding. They take 5% of that fee. This is more than $30 billion. You have to call your metro representatives. Because they don't want to hear anything from me. That's the problem. There's no point in a close call. You have to take the phone and carry out the activities of old-fashioned representatives in Tamil. Mayors have to listen to their opponents. I think Scott is right. But there is no point in a knife. These fires are spreading all over the metro. They have a lot of lives. Those who handle these sites are government employees. We are not handling a private institution. This is the government. The government can raise the fires. There is no limit to this. They can continue this. I have been talking for years like a fire in a fire pit. So welcome. I not only encourage you, but also welcome you to this discussion. Yes, thank you. Some of the things in this are happening for the first time. For example, the tip fee has been reduced. So, if we can handle things more carefully, I am here for that. Anyway, thank you for making sure that there will be no complaints about the questions in the slide. I really appreciate it. I support the opinion of Councillor Kimmy. I felt as if there was another such platform. I know that there is a platform somewhere. You have various community-based organizations that respond culturally and operate as a community. So, if you need help to create that platform, or if the living need help, I am sure that many of us will help to add it to that platform. As a general issue, what I have previously mentioned is that the awareness of the community should continue, no matter what it is. I think there are many people who have many misconceptions and also people who don't understand things. When I try to understand things by looking at pictures, I often stop there. So, we will continue to think about how to raise awareness in our communities, and we can use it in our boards, commissions, people and other ways to maintain it. If you apply it to some cultural and special events, I think that more people who don't know about these processes or systems will come forward to study. So, it will help a lot. So, thank you. Thank you, Councillor Hartman.

Okay, I am the beginning of the 40s. We are called Elder Millennials, right? Geriatric Millennials. So, my memory is not that good. But I definitely remember these speeches. We brought the metro forward. That day, President Peterson was here. We may not have treated them as much as the Mayor wanted, but it was a very intense debate. Because last year or the year before that, they had raised concerns, right? Because they had stopped it for a long time, they raised it strongly. So this year, even if it is about 9%, there was a problem there. And then they justified it by saying, oh, we have to do it, we have to do it. What I'm saying is, when you hear that the city is going through a lot of painstaking cuts in terms of all budgets, it's difficult for them to know that they're going to rise. It's really an effort to hear that, and that's why I think it's a little new for me to say that, because I don't think they explained it to me. I think we need that part of spending, right? That's why I think, even if we can call, I wonder if it is helpful to conduct a close presentation in such cases. So we can act strongly. Yes, but that's not new. Thank you for the advance and for the action, right? Then it is difficult. Because you are right. As a council, we have to accept the responsibility to increase fees for many things. We have to accept this. But we can't say enough opinions in this, right? We don't have much freedom of opinion, so we don't have to increase it this year. I am very happy to see that RME, RME is helping to reverse this, isn't it? That is, it is a matter to be done, it is done. I know this is not completely decided, but I hope this will help to focus the attention on the parts that we lack. Because when you have to pay a fee for the goods you buy, it makes you think, doesn't it? That's why I think this is great. Yes, but yes, thank you. We can decide whether or not we will be able to hold a council or a council meeting. Then, yes, we need a way forward, right? This is an opportunity to call and talk to our co-operators. But I agree. Then, when such things come, this is what we have been talking about for years, isn't it? So, this is definitely not new to us. However, I understand that many things happen to me in the past. Um, but I remember this correctly. It was a serious discussion, wasn't it? Then, we felt very strongly that this was not right. Suddenly, we had to accept that cost increase. So, we had to accept this situation. But I think, especially now when we see how an offset has happened, we have to continue to support it. Even if next year RME, RME, offset is done, our howlers may not be able to stand at the right level. If the metro continues to increase their fees, we have a responsibility to the howlers in our community and in terms of business activities. So I think there is a balance this year. But next year we have to pay more attention to the services provided by the metro. Counselor Teeter Scott Nanny Elizabeth Tonight, there have been many positive comments. I am also disappointed by the lack of funding for the work we need. We are working here in a very good way, but we need to do more than that. Metro is putting more pressure on our jobs, but it is not providing the necessary support. My question is, before sending our haulers to the Metro facilities, is there a limit to the tonnage that can be used in their own facilities? When our haulers reach their destination, does the metro think about changing that destination so that they don't have to go to Portland?

In my opinion, it is a long-term discussion between the staff of ARWSC and ARWSC. ARWSC is a major committee. There are discussions and discussions about raising those limits. Moreover, it is being investigated how to balance it with the support of the people. Because, to provide the services and programs of the Metro, a certain amount of money has to be given to their facilities, otherwise funds will not be received. So they are thinking about how to balance it all. They have been talking about this for years. And for me, Within the next year, they will be able to make a decision to change that law. But I don't know what the actual law is right now. Okay, thank you. Because as a councillor, this is very disappointing. Our howlers are doing a lot of work, and we know that it will continue for the most part for our community. However, since the metro is unable to provide the same quality of service, people are forced to use their facilities. This affects our residents negatively. This is really disappointing. Therefore, if there is no very simple and just explanation that has not been heard so far, I hope we can change this. But we are trying to reduce the financial burden of our residents. Therefore, I am grateful that our local authorities have not changed this year. Yes, I think this is very important. As Councillor Duggar said, we are trying our best to ensure that our fees are met. My last question, Councillor Kimmy spoke a little about this. I was curious about the need for programs with reduced fees. That's more. When people seek help from other fees and fees, they know about this. Therefore, I am interested in promoting and promoting more marketing about this, because I believe there are more people who can use this. If we are going to conduct more promotions and more people are coming, and we have to move forward to announce community action, then yes. I would be happy if such meetings could be held. But this is a very good service we provide. I don't want to go without using it just because people don't know about it. Thank you for your activities this year. We will continue to try to increase the number of people who come to the metro. Thank you to both of you. Thank you for all your opinions. RMA, RMA, even though there were needs, this year's Metro Meghalaya, which was unprecedented, On the other hand, I am particularly proud that we have only one right. So, I am particularly happy about it. I know that you are also happy. We are happy that we can stand on it. But the situation is not favorable for everyone through this cloud.

Also, I think this is important. About Redwell, Redwell, one of the reasons why we are discussing so much is that our franchisees are our holders and they are protecting us and our skills to do this. The most union holders in the country are in this cloud. They are getting a lot of money to live with their family. We know that franchisees are making it clear that when someone takes something from the garage, we can check what is happening in the basement. This is not the case for those who take your white box from the road. Many of the things that are included in it are very important. But we cannot control it in the same way as a selected society. We cannot guarantee it. We know very well that their life is not the life of the union. They are not responsible for it. They are responsible for giving Malini culture services to everyone who is part of the franchisee career. Even if they are 10 miles away, they have to fulfill it. The private companies that are not part of the franchisee career are not responsible for this. . . . Thank you, Scott. Thank you. Oh, forgive me. I am sorry. Ashley is coming.

Forgive me. I had a small question to ask. Since we are making such small changes in our other utilities, I know. I think, Elizabeth, I'm looking. Forgive me, Scott. I didn't mean to insult you. Elizabeth, do we take it in? Do we give the impression that you have access to this service if you need it? Do we take it in our utility bills? That's right. Through community action, we often talk about the aid that we provide. Yes, that's right. Because through community action, I believe that the aim of this is to create a unique system to achieve it with as few obstacles as possible for those who need it. But yes, when we hear that, we think that some people may not know about it yet. So we have to make sure that we are doing everything we can for that. Elizabeth, my opinion is this. Is it also about malignancy in it? If we are taking it in there, Instead of finding a new way, we can use the things we are doing now. Yes, I wanted to make that clear. Because I think we are doing it somewhere. So... Good. Thank you. Okay, you haven't gone this far. The councilor president wants to pass laws here.

Everyone wants to say their last words. Continue, president.

When the councilor teacher spoke about alcohol, I thought... Will we be able to know when people close their bills?

Can we understand why? For example, if someone is more than 90 days late, they are not the first ones we have to contact. The city does not have the capacity to do so. However, we have spoken to people before to refer to a program that has reduced the number of people with disabilities. Through that, they will be able to verify whether that program is valid. Yes, we believe that they are doing it. Yes, we believe that they are doing it. Let's check it out. Next week, there is a HALAR program. We can remind them about that duty. Sometimes, there are very complicated cases. In the past, a family had a lot of difficulties to pay their garbage bill. They joined the program with a low salary. But it helped the poor. It was of no use to the past. That's why we decided to remove the garbages that were used as a garbage hauler. We helped to solve their problem by joining a community service organisation. There are very few such cases, but if anything happens, we try to find a solution.

Finally, there is a difference in the capacity of each container. That is, do you get 75% capacity in one container or 75% capacity in the other container? This is the same for everyone. The capacity you get is 75% of the capacity of a normal container. This will vary according to the size of the container. The size of the container can also be different. But any normal container will get 75% capacity. It can be an opportunity that we can think about in the future. For example, if a person is not able to reach the level required to get 75%, or if they are close to it, or if they have a fixed income, we can discuss such things. Sometimes you may not get a full 75%, you may get a 25% or 50% or if there are any problems, if there are few people, if you get a fund. So this is my last part. Thank you.

Thank you for joining us this evening. Counsel, Counsel, New Business Counselor Kimmy Yes, I would like to announce an announcement to our events team.

I heard that they are a team of three, but they are very eager to organize events throughout the year. I have tried to participate in most and all activities of Beaverton during this venal period. They are doing a great job. Many people are coming to participate. I used to go to the night market. I used to go for picnics. But even if I take a lot of photos, I don't get to see them. Something is hiding somewhere.

Are you asking for photos? No, just to see one.

You know, right?

Like your friend's photo on the Instagram of the city. That's right. Right. Right. Is Elizabeth or Nicole listening to that?

Counselor Kimmy.

Still, thank you for all the support. I think it helps us to welcome other cities and keep our cities separate. Then I also thank Sister City Sandarshanam. It was a wonderful thing. They really paid for it. The time in the night market was very accurate. They were able to understand how Beaverton was. I understood that there are more than 10,000 residents there. They have 33 council members.

Yes.

So I asked, how? When you think that life is hard, they have to do it according to the law that 33 people for 10,000 people. Yes. They have a list.

If a councillor changes, they will bring the next person to that place.

That's why, that's why I told them that within 50 years, the whole community and council will be there. Yes, yes, I think we have a very good activity here. That's good. That's why I wanted to introduce it. Thank you.

Yes, then you know that there is a OneDrive for photos. but I know that it is difficult when you are not in touch. I will tell my team to send you some photos of the council. Because it is important. I think it is part of our efforts. I am not joking. I am being respectful. I can help you get some photos. I can choose what I think is good. You will get it. COUNCILOR TETTER

Okay, okay, I'll remind you of the last thing from my part. This coming Sunday is the last Concerts in the Round. If you haven't been able to come to any of these yet, it's a very good thing. After 5 pm on Sundays, it's 30 minutes. Then on 1st Street Dining, Commons, every Friday night at 6 pm, there is a downtown music event. It was also very good. It will continue until the end of September. So, there are a few more Sundays. I think you will all go to see it. Councilor Hermier, Prague. This is a wonderful experience.

I appreciate everything my co-councillor said. The Beaverton Music Festival took place in the last week. I was especially happy to see this place so lively during this time of year. It was amazing. Then I really liked our sister city Sandarshanam. I think there are about 20,000 people in those two cities. I think there are more than 20 councillors in Germany. Then the most interesting thing is that even though I took part in the Sisters E.T. activities, I didn't know that it started with the foundation of peace. It started to help the peace of Agola and to prevent it from being like a world war again. It is sometimes difficult to think about such a beautiful thing being created. At the same time, when we think that there are big wars going on and those big wars are affecting our society here, So this is the reason why we are trying to maintain peace with other cities. But there are a lot of difficulties. It is good to remember that even when things are difficult here, there is no problem. We have a lot of community members and people who participate in it, so there is no problem. But things are not like that for some people. So, thanks to everyone who helped make this possible. I think we can continue the sister city partnership. Because in such moments, it is very important to remind us of our social history. That too in our common language or not. We are trying to conduct and connect with each other. It was a special moment. I would like to thank the councillors who took the time to visit our sister cities. We will get another opportunity. Our two Japanese sister cities will be here for the events of the next few months. We can assure you that you will get those details. We are waiting for the port. We are planning to establish a new sister city in Bawi as another city. We worked as a Mexican consulate to find a place in Mexico that many of our community members visited. Therefore, we will stay here for more than a day this year. If Councillor Kim wants, we can find a way to go to Korea together. This week, the new Consul General of South Korea is coming to the CET Hall. That's why there are a lot of demonstrations in the city. Many people come here because of our proximity and diversity. That's why it is important for us to do these kinds of diplomatic relations in the city. One thing I understood when I was in the city and when I was in office here is that the federal government will come and go, but the relationship between the cities is the most important. That's why I think the counsellor needs something else. I have one more thing to thank you for. Those beautiful changes in the hall. It was very beautiful. When we went inside, we saw it was very beautiful. I was surprised. What is this? We are in reality. It is very beautiful. So thank you to everyone who made it possible. It was a special moment. When I saw it, I felt a special experience. I asked, what is this? One who has been waiting for a long time, ask Elizabeth. Councilor Hassan's daughters have come to see us today.

Oh, your husband's daughters.

Oh, your husband's daughters. That's right. And her children too. So, welcome to our council chamber. I think you will have a good time tonight. So, let's stop here for today. You can spend some time with your daughter-in-law, right? Okay.
