Um at this time I'd like to ask Vice President Ryan to lead us in the pledge of allegiance. Thank you. Please stand if you're able.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. At this time, I'd like to ask council member council member Bader to read the land acknowledgement.

The city council wishes to acknowledge the original inhabitants of this place, the Stoopia people, and their successors, the Tle tribes. Since time in memorial, they have hunted, fished, gathered on, and taken care of these lands and waters. We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water. We will strive to be honest about our past mistakes and bring about a future that includes their people, stories, and voices to form a more just and equitable society. Thank you. And uh begin their evening. Um good evening, Mayor.

Good evening, President Schwab, council and community. Um I know I will get the opportunity to see many of our council members tomorrow for our for my ninth state of the city address at the new historic Ever Theater. It's a ticketed event hosted by the Greater Everett Chamber of Commerce. It'll be a great gathering of community leaders interested in the momentum we are building for a bright future for Everett. But we also have a community edition of the event scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Saturday at Walter Hall Golf Courses Olympic View Ballroom. This is a free event and I hope to see many of our community members there. I also wanted to let you know that I'll be out for a few days in March, both next week and the following week, which means I will miss the next two city council meetings. The first trip is fully paid for by Yale Mayor's College. And the second is a great opportunity to be in DC along with National League of Cities and mayors and council members from around the country. I'll be focused on some key priorities for the city of Everett. First, advocating for the epic bridge with our congressional delegation and the US Department of Commerce. I'm uh Department of Transportation, I'm sorry. And I'm also planning to visit the Pentagon to demonstrate our support for Naval Station Everett and remind them of the national security importance of our planned fire training facility. I'll also have a chance to meet with the delegation and talk about the way they can support the pedestrian, transit, and bike improvements near the future outdoor event center. Um that funding can help connect folks wandering and walking around to games and events at the uh at the outdoor event center. Um going downtown and also to Everett Station. And then I just want to apologize also because I'll be leaving council early and so I might miss part of the meeting. Thank you.

Okay. Well, thank you very much. All right. On to old business. Do I hear a motion to approve the minutes for February 25th? Move to approve. Second. Motion and second's been made. Clerk, please take the role. Council member Zarlingo. Yes. Council member Tui. Abstain. Council member Weir. Yes. Council member Bader. Yes. Vice President Ryan. Yes. President Schwab. Yes. Now it's time for public comment which includes written comment acknowledgement. Under our rules, written comment shall be considered in the same manner as oral comments. The person submitting comments must provide their name and city of residence. Written comments require this to be part of the official council record. And good evening, Angie. Do we have any written comments or anyone signed up to speak this evening?

Evening President Schwab. We received one written comment from John Peoples regarding flock and ice. and I provided this to council, legal, city clerk and administration to be part of the record. Okay, thank you. And then how about our online? Yes, we do have two individuals online. Um trying to promote them to be uh panelists, so just bear with me with technical challenges here. Maybe I'm here.

Oh, yes, I can hear you. Okay. Um, could you please state your full name, city of residence, and you have three minutes um to speak? And if you can turn on your video, great. But if not, it's okay.

I think I cannot turn on my video, but my name is Liz Vogley. I was planning on turning on my video and I will start. Oh, I live in Everett. Christine Gnome says 18 and reputable sources say more than 170 United States citizens, including military veterans, have been unlawfully detained and charged with no crime by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the first eight months of Trump's second term. Whichever whichever number you believe it is that number too many of United States citizens being detained unlawfully. ICE is already here in Everett and the surrounding areas. They are going to arrest whoever, wherever, and whenever they want. Going along to get along is not going to make any of us safer. Entering a 287G partnership to remove criminal aliens is ridiculous and redundant. ICE does not follow their own rules or constitutional law. Thank goodness we have a mayor willing to attempt to protect her constituents by publishing a directive that shows people their rights. Because one day the Department of Homeland Security, the President of the United States, and all those who aided and emedded them will be held accountable. DHS is claiming they are arresting rapists and murderers. And yet, one of the most prolific pedophiles in history is still claiming the title of United States President. And now they are dropping bombs on schools and killing young girls in Iran while they create blue butterfly zones for teenage girls detained by ICE. So to all those people out there who think Trump is doing right by the people of America, there is still time to reconsider and change sides. Thank you.

Thank you. I will try and get our next guest here to be able to speak. Okay. Hi, Jen. If you could unmute and turn your camera on if possible and state your full name and city of residence and you have three minutes to speak.

All right. Um, good evening um, council members and mayor Franklin. For the record, my name is Jen Chong Juel and I live in South Everett. And um my comment today is to um acknowledge and thank Mayor Franklin for um issuing a directive, but also more importantly um acknowledging the current laws that we already have in place such as the keep working uh keep Washington working um act. And um I have a lot of gratitude for Mayor Franklin. Um listening to community and responding to community. Um, I acknowledge that I'm in a time where I'm not seeing as many elected officials that I would like to see uh take a stand for community and you know honestly just um stand up for const our constitution, democracy and due process and most importantly human rights. So, um I just want to express deep appreciation and um knowing that this time will come to to pass eventually and um community will remember those who um stood up and spoke out and supported um communities that were most that are and continue to be so um racially profiled and targeted at this time. Thank you.

Thank you. And now we'll move to those that are in chambers. Oh, one second here. Um, we'll start with Travis. If you could please come to the podium and please um, hit the button on the mic there and state your full name. State your residence. You have three minutes to speak.

Hello. Good evening. Thank you. My name is Travis Partardo. I am the research fellow at the Family Policy Institute of Washington, the largest uh organization in the state of Washington for the politically active Christians in our state. Everett is my home. I grew up here. I went to Eisenhower Middle School. I delivered the Ever Herald newspaper to neighbors on my bicycle, two saddle bags on the back tire. I also graduated from Cascade High School. Go Bruins. Like you, I love this city. I treasure the memories and the bonds of friendship. For decades, I have been proud to call this my home. Yet too often in recent years, the old neighborhood has felt like a foreign city. With the impact of mass immigration year after year, thousands upon thousands, wave after wave of illegals coming into this region. It is immigration without assimilation. I have seen my home changed before my eyes. I see enclaves. I see people who live here who have no interest nor fundamental idea of what it means to be an American and no desire to celebrate our American heritage, our heroes, language, music, dress, customs and our way of life. The community in the unity in community has been wounded. I also see crime and gangs linked to illegal illegals increasing exponentially. Streets I walked in my youth are no longer safe. These days, who would want to be alone on Casino Road or at Lion's Park? Recently, an initiative by the mayor of Everett has made the national news. The mayor has instructed the to instructed employees to expose the location of ICE officers and to intervene in their operations. ICE rightly points out that the mayor serves criminal illegal aliens and is escalating tensions. We believe this initiative is a mistake.

A mistake that we hope will be corrected. ICE is protecting American citizenship. They are defending our neighborhoods. We agree that cooperation with ICE, not confrontation, is the solution. Therefore, the Family Policy Institute of Washington joins with others and respectfully calls for the mayor to rescend her directive, specifically those troubling sex. In initiative three, we hold our convictions firmly in our hearts with love for this city and we aim for a peaceful and reasonable solution. We hope and wish to work with you to find common ground for a positive solution and better direction for this great city, our home, to make it the best it's ever been. Thank you very much.

Thank you. Next, if Terry could please come to the podium. you state your full name and city residence. You have three minutes to speak.

My name is Terry Amberie and um I live here in district 1 in city of Everett. Good evening, mayor and city council members. Um my comment tonight is in regard to your recent directive as well and and the flock cameras. When they first installed these uh flock cameras, some of them were very near my home at Senator Henry M. Jackson Park. And I was excited um because I felt the intended purpose was very valuable. Unfortunately, hearing that the information from these block cameras is accessible to um the public leaves me greatly concerned. Uh public access creates the possibility of unintentional purposes causing fear to an integral part of our Everick community. I applaud your decision to set clear protocols protecting access to services and most importantly reinforcing your commitment to serving the entire community. Thank you.

Thank you. Next, if John could please come to the podium, [clears throat] please state your full name and city of residence. You have three minutes to speak.

John Peoples Everett. Good evening, city council. I acknowledge the sheer courage of Henry Knox and his men who 250 years ago, late in January, completed their monthsl long 300mile trek through the miserable winter wind weather to haul the guns of Fort Ticeroga to Boston for our patriot cause. And just last week in North Carolina, a patriot force defeated a loyalist militia in the Battle of Moors Creek Bridge. Stay tuned for more news in the weeks ahead. These brave I will say that uh I don't even know that I would have made the 300 miles. Um, these brave acts shine with honor and deserve our eternal gratitude in contrast to the weasly worded land acknowledgement that I believe is designed to sew an unearned sense of shame in the hearts and minds of innocent citizens spoken by those who have never offered up their own private property for reparation for supposed mistakes. The false claim that we have made mistakes without naming any is defamation. Someday a brave city councilman will decline to perform this graceless univil sacrament. It is good that we are here. It is good that the local Indian tribes gave up their practice of slavery per article 11 of the Treaty of Point Elliot. Everett and Snowomish County are good. Our little Republic of Washington is good and our great American republic is good. The council owes it to us to acknowledge that. One way to do that is to hold every person accountable for his own actions. The council finds itself in quite the pickle pickle by infringing on the civil liberties of citizens while attempting to withhold public records information from federal authorities in an effort to shield illegal aliens from the just consequences of their actions. A community in which the local government

squeezes one group while another uh giving another a pass is inherently unsafe. The risks being abuse of authority by a council and police force that plays favorites. That is on you, not the federal government and not federal law enforcement. I recommend removing the flock cameras permanently in honor of the civil liberties of citizens. I also welcome immigration and customs enforcement everywhere in Everett to do its federal law enforcement job. I expect Everett police to assist ICE and other federal law enforcement. I ask you to use your council comment time to urge Ever residents to not interfere with federal law enforcement. We should all want everyone to deal peacefully with each other in spite of our differences of of opinion. Good night.

Thank you. And we have one more person, but they wish us wait till we get to item number 10. Okay, item number 10. Correct. All right, so we'll move on to council comments beginning with council members are lingo.

Well, thank you. Just a couple of reports on uh communities or boards that I serve on to represent Everett. Uh first one is Snomish County tomorrow. Um a lot of what they do is planning, but it's countywide. Uh we had some last week's meeting was some news on the new start centers. The these were the hotels that the county purchased a couple of uh well several three four years ago. One here in Everett and one in Edmonds. Uh these are designed to provide emergency housing for temporary housing and services for residents. Um this includes medical and mental health insurance assistance. Uh job resources. Their goal is to stabilize and connect these residents to long-term housing. Uh the first one set to be opened is Edmonds. Uh they're now soon getting their certificate of occupancy. They plan on having an opening event this month, later on this month. Um that'll be 40 resident rooms plus staff offices and some activity rooms with YMCA as the operator. Uh more close to us is the Ever New Start Center, the old uh days in. Uh a little bit later this spring, 70 resident rooms. Both these sites are gated, staffed 24 hours and including security and the Salvation Army will be operating the one uh on Ever Mall in South Everett. Uh news uh on a separate issue, separate board, the Puget Sound Regional Council's Economic Development District Board. Um and I attended that today with our economic development director Dan Ernesy. uh particular news there that's relevant to us is the region uh report uh a total loss of employment last year in the region of 12,900 jobs in 2025. That's about the same number that the region added in each of the past couple of years. So this is a pretty significant drop. Um some unusual nature in that there's more detail on the PSRC site as to which areas lost the most and which areas gained. Um gaining were healthc care. uh some of the largest

loss in numbers were in construction. Uh but of course we have a diverse city and county and uh that employment diversity will help us. I think uh manufacturing of high value products and export of those like we do with the Boeing company will help soften the blow that way and give us a uh a brighter long-term future. But again, healthcare was the the nearest term thing that expanded. Um and then one other element from that meeting today report by former Governor Christine Gregoire. She's now the CEO of a group called Challenge Seattle. Uh that's they're partnering with PSRC in regional efforts that can be more effective in than individual cities and counties in doing economic development. Uh and in particular, she noted the 5-year survival rate of new businesses in this state is actually poorer than most. So this is one of those cases where regional efforts I think can be more powerful than local efforts, especially with coordination. And so with a former governor working on that group, um I think that will that bodess well for the future. Uh and then lastly, um just a brief one, I I attended the opening of the Tapped Public House restaurant on the waterfront um couple of days ago. I think it was Monday, and the one thing I thought was worth mentioning in that was there was a number of attendees who are uh owners or proprietors of other local restaurants. And I thought it was remarkable they don't see tapped as competition uh but more uh leverage the establishment of a center of dining and entertainment services that should benefit them all. So I thought that was magnanis with them but probably pretty practical as well. That's it. Thanks.

Thank you council mayor Tuy. Uh yeah I don't have a report tonight but I want to thank uh thank Council Zaring Zarlingo for the update on that housing project in South Ever. Been waiting for that for several years. So, look forward to seeing it when it's all done. Thank you. Thank you, Council Member Weir. Uh, no comments tonight. Council Bader.

Thanks, Council President. Uh, last week I got here late, so I didn't give a report on two meetings that I had the week before. Uh, first the transportation advisory committee leen uh had um great report by u Corey Herd, our transportation or trans our traffic engineer about freight routes in the city and a very interesting one. uh you know a lot of obviously some controversy around that with uh uh you know people not wanting big trucks on their streets etc etc so if you're interested in that I think you can reach out to Corey our traffic engineer and uh get that uh information but uh well well done presentation and then uh Peterson Regional Council quick update on that growth management uh again I I sit on that board uh continue to discuss regional centers and uh other centers and I think there might be a move uh here to for a couple of the smaller centers that don't meet criteria uh to perhaps be descertified as centers. So, we'll see where that goes here over the next couple of months. It wouldn't affect none of this affects ever directly, not at our centers, but uh uh just so you know that that's being looked at uh regionwide to make sure they meet the criteria that centers are supposed to meet for density and mobility, etc. Thanks. That's it.

Thank you, Council Member Ryan. Great. Uh, no updates tonight, but just wanted to thank Mayor Franklin again for her strength and leadership with the mayoral directives last week. Grateful for them. Thank you. Okay. Thank you very much. I'm moving on to administrative report.

I have a couple things. Some were requested by council, so I'll try not to be too long. First, uh, quick legislative update. Um just this evening I was watching before I came over the um House Bill 2266 which was the um like supportive temporary emergency permanent supportive housing bill um sponsored by Representative Peterson passed the Senate. So they'll it still has to get to the end of session and it had they had amendments on it but it does allow for with some limits but allow for the management plans that we use for that type of housing here in Everett. Um and it also has a requirement for other cities for all cities to permit those types of housing when their comprehensive plan shows that it is a need in their community. Um there were a bunch of amendments. So those are the kind of the two highlights there. Um 6002 is the um bill addressing automated license plate reader cameras. It's in rules in the House and seems like it will be pulled for a floor vote. There's still good progress being being made with amendments on the bill. Um, including one that we would anticipate one that has all gross demeanors include gross misdemeanors. I think I said that wrong. Gross misdemeanor included. Um, others that have a more limited list, but an amendment is likely that would incl. Um there's also an amendment to allow the police to use vehicle descriptions. So the bill is written now just allows um police officers to enter a license plate number. And unsurprisingly when there's a situation sometimes folks have a description but not the whole plate. And so having that flexibility is important. So that's rolling along and I'll have more news next week I would expect.

Uh, and the other bill that I will mention, the last one, um, 2442, I have been tracking this bill all session. I don't know if I've mentioned it to you, maybe at the very beginning when I gave you a really long update. Uh, it is, um, it's a bill that's got a bunch of different revenue and financial tools for cities and counties in it. I think there it started out eight. I think it's around that amount still. Um, it passed through Senate Ways and Means with an amendment that includes language that would allow cities like ours to do municipal fire authorities. So, last week I told you the bill was dead, but we kept it alive by adding the L working with um this other cities as well that are interested in this tool. So, it's the language um basically allows the city to form a municipal fire authority. Um it adds a requirement to consult with labor and um other groups that are outlined in the bill, not as relevant to us before proceeding forward. We would do that anyways. Um it also requires that that municipal fire authority establish a separately elected commission to govern the fire authority. Maybe not totally what we envisioned from the start, but we are just excited to have that tool in the toolbox for you to consider just like we talked about at the January retreat. So, I'm very proud that we have kept it alive. We will see if it gets um a floor vote and and makes it through to the end, but it's been worked pretty good for the last couple weeks. So, uh the items that were requested is a little update on charter review. So, here at the city, our charter review committee has been meeting. They've had two meetings, but they've been getting lots done. Um, last week they asked

staff to draft a proposal related to updating our language about initiatives. So, legal staff are working on that. So, we have a a uniquely low threshold. There was conversation among the committee about adjusting that and looking at what other cities who have charters around the state do. Um, and we're also going to look at um some improvements to the language that we'll bring to them that would kind of modernize it, allow the clerk to set deadlines because that was kind of confusing when we had initiatives in 2024 and allow council to set kind of procedures. So, um how language comes to you and forms and things like that. Uh we didn't get to discuss uh too much eligibility for office. That language is in the charter, but we're going to talk about it next week. I would imagine that'll be on their list. We'll also have a presentation from staff um on the civil service chapter to modernize that. They probably more importantly than those things, they tentatively have a public hearing set for March 26th at the Evergreen Branch Library. I'm thinking it's a 5:00 pm start. Uh but it's not it's not final. Well, they booked the rooms, but it's probably pretty final, but that's all the details that I have. So, they do have 17 different ideas submitted so far on their list. Not all of which will probably be talked about, but they're throwing around ideas right now. Uh, Council President Schwab asked if I could chat with you about the county charter commission because I um was elected to that role outside of my job here. Um, but I always bring my Ever Lens of course as a representative of the district. Um, so the county charter uh commission advanced a couple things. They have we have a process across the street where um commissioners can bring forward ideas and as long as you get

five votes, you'll get uh policy analysis from staff. They'll bring a proposal back and then there's a second vote to get it officially kind of placed, you know, on the list to be placed on the ballot. The city's committee is more advisory to the council. So they'll create a report and those ideas for ballot language will come or for ballot topics I guess you could say will come to you for approval at the county it's a little bit more of a direct pass through. So when the commission over there uh votes on stuff to put on the ballot it gets placed on the ballot. So things that we have that were approved for analysis doesn't mean they'll make it to the end although I can make guesses. Um um analysis of of adding two additional county council member districts, so seven instead of five. Um another one we had competing proposals. The one that was passed was to make basically the remaining county offices nonpartisan. So county executive, county prosecutor, and the county council member seats. Um and the last one so far approved analysis of a proposal to ban county officials. We'll kind of probably dig into it. It was a pretty wide definition. I don't know if it'll be as wide and as it is right now, but county officials from engaging in paid lobbying activity outside of their county work. So, um that's what's going on over there.

Thank you. Um I have a question. Do you have the um the bill expiration dates there in front of you for the state for I believe like the sixth we have a deadline. Oh, like like key dates in the legisle. Do you have those real quick?

Yeah. So, um the bills that I mentioned have to be passed. The step housing one 2266 already did this, but they all have to be passed off the floor by Friday and then they have until next um till the 12th, whatever day of the week that is, uh to sort of clean up if there were amendments that were made. So there 2442 that's a that's a House bill but it's over in the Senate right now. If it gets voted off the floor then it gets reconciled I guess on the other side by the 12th which is the last day of session. Okay. Yeah. Council Ryan

uh sorry to ask about the county commission. Um did uh glad to hear about a possible ban on um paid lobbying activities outside of being an elected official. Um, was there discussion about um not being able to hold two elected offices? Not I don't think there was at that meeting. I believe there will I I think that could come forward later. Okay. Just curious specifically for the county, right? Because we were talking about both just for clarity. Yeah. Just Okay. Thank you. Any other questions or comments? Okay. Well, thank you very much. Is there anything else? Any other subjects? Fantastic. Thank you. How about our city attorney, David Hall?

Nothing to report tonight, but we are requesting a 15minute executive session pursuant to RCW423140 sub4 to update you on the status of negotiations of two collective bargaining agreements with no council action to follow. Okay, thank you. Okay, so we'll move on to our consent items. We have items one through six. Do I have a motion and a second? So move the motion on consent. Second. Okay. Motion, second's been made. Clerk, please take the role. Council member Zarlingo, yes. Council member Tui, yes. Council member Weir, yes. Council member Bader, yes. Vice President Ryan, yes. President Schwab,

yes. Okay, moving on to item number seven, Council Bill 2602-06. Second reading, it's been read in the record. Are there any questions or comments from council? Okay, hearing none. Um, third and final reading will be March 11th, 2026. Item number eight, council bill 2602-07, second reading. Um, it's been read in the record. Are any questions or comments from council. Seeing none, third and final reading be March 11th, 2026. Item number nine, council bill 2602-08, second reading. Are there any questions or comments from council? Seeing none, um, our third reading will be March 11th. Okay. So, we'll move to item number 10. Um, our action item, Council Bill 2602-09, third and final reading. Adopt an ordinance creating a special improvement project entitled 2026 pavement maintenance overlay fund fund 303 program 138 to accumulate all costs for the improvement.

Yes, there summits. Okay. Motion uh seconded, but also I think we had a public comment on that. Okay. Is there um do we have a Yep. So, we have a public commenter. Oh, okay. Thank you very much. So, Tyler, if you could please press the button on the microphone. Thanks for the reminder. Welcome. And state your full name and city residents. You have three minutes to speak.

Thank you. Tyler Ror, uh Everett here, Washington. Um good evening, council. I was asked some time ago to come and just kind of share my thoughts with you on the state of bicycling in Everett because I'm kind of known for that. Um I've been riding my bike here for coming up on 20 years. Um I also had the privilege of serving on the transportation advisory committee for seven. Six of those uh somehow my my peers selected me as the chair. I I don't know why. I always felt like I was threading a needle between just constantly complaining uh at the state of our transportation system, but then also trying to convey how much I respect the the hard work and that um effort that goes into transportation planning here in the city um among the city staff and and everybody who's involved. So that said, you know, I I got to know a lot of people who work for the city. I certainly don't want to throw people under the bus, but biking here 20 years ago sucked and it still sucks. It's terrible. We are missing opportunities left and right. Last year during the pavement maintenance overlay, we failed to incorporate something that's in the plan, the bicycle master plan, something I'm very familiar with. I've read it cover to cover. Um I'd like to ask you all to become more familiar with it. But on uh East Casino, we did nothing and we had a blank slate. We could have restriped. I still don't understand why we don't restripe when we have the opportunity. The cost is in the planning, but the, you know, the paint and the asphalt are free at that point. We missed a number of years ago an opportunity on KBY. Plenty of width. I did a parking study. I got a GPS app on my phone. I went up and down Colby. I measured how many cars are parked. You know, the excuse was that we couldn't take away parking. But it's public right away. The storage of personal property

is not something that we have to do. And that parking all along the corridor is severely under utilized. Um I had a hard time getting anybody to even look at my report. I had real real data. I had like the date and time and the location and the number of cars on each side of the street. Nothing. I found that, you know, we have a complete streets ordinance. The complete street that we built on Rucker was hardscaped with a concrete median in the middle. It's certainly an improvement for pedestrians, but it's completely off limits for somebody riding a bike. Last week, I watched the meeting and Tom Hood said the same thing that I have found. Nose in angle parking is terrible if you're riding a bike. People can't see when they're backing out of parking spaces. It's been proven. There's lots of data. Back in angle parking is safer. There's lots of reasons. You drive past an empty parking space where there's no action happening. You back your car in. When you get there, your trunk is at the sidewalk or your hatch or whatever. all of your doors open so when your kids get out they're protected from accidentally walking into traffic. They're they're like funneled toward the sidewalk and then when you leave the parking space you can see where you're going. It's like there are all the reasons in the world to only build backin angle parking riverfront or like just the Miltown Trail is not not a trail at all. You can't just put the word on it. So anyway, apologize for going over um I've shared my thoughts again. I apologize for taking so long to get here, but uh thanks for listening.

Thank you. Okay, so we have a mo counselor.

Yeah, ju just wanted to comment to Tyler's comments. Obviously, Tyler watched the uh uh TAC meeting as well. I think that qu question about the bicycle overlay did come up uh at the TAC meeting in regards to these uh the overpayment overlays that are being done. and and um I I if I recall that uh uh Corey hurt point 19th is one of those streets by uh the areas repaid I think is stripe for bicycles uh already uh the other ones uh that are up for as you can see on the map in our pack in our packet is are are really somewhat constrained. I think Friday may uh Friday Avenue may have that, but uh uh the boulevard uh between Dogwood and Evergreen and Evergreenway itself are uh are ones that uh just are already constrained uh as well, but it certainly question was asked for the ones that are coming up this year. I I can't speak to the, you know, previous year, but uh I just wanted to report that as well.

Okay. Thank you very much. All right. So, clerk, we have a motion, a second. Is that correct? Okay. Is there any other questions or comments from council? Okay, clerk, please take the role. Council members, yes. Council member Tui, yes. Council member Weir, yes. Council member Bader, yes. Vice President Ryan, yes. President Schwab, yes. Okay, moving. I do actually have one thing. Okay. Um, Jennifer, if we could add to our list for the parks and built environment committee an update on our bicycle master plan, that would be great. Thanks. Yeah, I I guess I had a question since you brought it up. We do that every 5 years or is it 10 years that we we approved one? I know since I've been here

I think that the current plan is around 10 years old. Um but I believe that they're working on an update like as part of the vision zero efforts. Yeah. And it was they wanted to tackle that after they have the resoning the re is what I my understanding perhaps. Yeah. Yeah. But I can I'll more up to date and vote for advice. Yeah. Thank you very much. All right. Um, okay. So, item number 11, authorize a call for bids for the 2026 payment maintenance overlay project. Move to approve. Second the motion. Okay. Um, questions or comments from council. Clerk, please take the role. Council members Arlingo. Yes. Council member Tui. Yes. Council member Weir.
