Bye.

This Yogan of the Municipal Commission begins. Thank you, everyone. Let us begin the Yogan with silence for a minute, as per our tradition. Please join us in praying to God. I bow to the Republic of the United States of America. Under God, everyone has the right to freedom and justice. It is an unbreakable nation. Thank you, clerk. May God bless you. Commissioner Belchek.

Here.

Commissioner Perdue.

Greetings.

Commissioner Yasasi.

Here.

Commissioner Kilgore. Here. Commissioner Knight. Here. Mayor Lander. Here. Can our interpreter come and explain what their job is?

My name is Sandra Nichol. I am here to help you. I will serve anyone who needs to return to English or return to Spanish. Even if they come here or stay behind, we will do it happily. Thank you. Thank you.

The next few minutes in the agenda are for acceptance. Can this be expressed as a promise? Will you accept it? Will you accept it? Forgive me. I made a mistake. Forgive me. Now is the time for the public to give their opinion. Talk only about the agenda. Agendas are available in the hall. If you have anything to say about the agenda, please come and talk to me. Tell me who you are and where you live. That would be good. I will say two things. I will say it again later. You will notice that there is a clock, right? It can be seen clearly. There is a time limit of three minutes. If you are halfway through, I can spare some time, but please try to spare some time. This is not a general statement. Remember that you are speaking to the Commission. This is a complaint resolution statement. Okay, since no one has said anything, thank you. We can move on to the next minutes. I think that's enough. This is the minutes of our last yoke on August 25th. Those who accept the minutes, please accept it. Oh, we did it, right? But there is no confusion. There is no doubt about that. You will see it for the first time for all, right, Commissioner? Those who accept it, please say aye. Aye. Aye. Are there those who oppose it? Pramayam is passed. Now we are moving on to the questions and questions. Mr. Clerk. In order to complete the Kamasu Corridor Road Safety Audit, more funding was allocated and a letter from the Mobile GR Commission was filed.

A letter from the Hollande Dean Norma Central Ventures LLC filed a FOIR appeal for PR 2026-755.

Pressurer report from August 12, 2026 to August 25, 2026. Received. Filed.

Finally, the report of the CET Manager on the direct response to the city's inspection law on automated license plate readers. Therefore, I have been stopping here for some time to invite everyone to read the city's inspection law, whether online or in person. I think this is a very well-made and well-thought-out idea. However, the CET manager had something to tell you about this initiative. Yes, thank you.

At the end of August, I announced to the CET Commission that after our last General Security Council meeting, I would re-investigate our security policy, and I would prepare a statement that would bring license plate readers under the municipal security policy. That statement is in your pocket. It came into effect from Monday, September 7. You can read in detail about what is required from the General Security Council and the CET Commission regarding illegal uses. However, it is mandatory that these two boards are required for the application of the License Plate Reader Act and the changes in use. Moreover, this will be mandatory at the end of the 2027 June deadline. The department will conduct another survey, and will prepare an OPA-OPA surveillance report. In that report, we will provide information on how the law was used, and we will report it to the Public Safety Committee and the Commission. After that, we will decide whether to renew the law or submit it to another official. In short, without the permission of the public, this constitutional law will not be passed.

In addition, let me say one more thing. If our surveillance police officers suspect the misuse of this constitutional law, there is a clear way to report it. Therefore, those reports will be sent to the Office of Public Accountability, i.e. OBI. Therefore, thank you CET Manager. Next are the reports of our consent agenda and standing committees. This is a method of adding things that were previously passed in the committee and that cannot be removed from the consent agenda for further discussion. So, can we make a promise to accept the consent agenda? Yes, we can. Then what do we do? Those who agree to pass the consent agenda, say yes. Yes. Thank you. Is there anyone who opposes? The promise has been passed. We can now proceed to the ordinances without removing items from the consent calendar. First, it is a salary ordinance. So, will we get a permit?

We can do that.

I agree. Commissioner Sawi.

Thank you, Mayor. This is a salary ordinance. This was approved by our Civil Service Board. But the office of the CET clerk needs to make some changes to the job description. That is, Election 7. This is a supplementary group. These are the part-time adjunct supplementary documents we use. They are the ones who have received special training, but most of them, who use electronic devices and logistics, are city residents or tenants. In addition, we had complained to the next electronic inspector, so we wanted to cancel this at this time. So the criminals have been arrested in the memo. For example, I am not talking about 5 certificates. But in the first level, the salary was Rs. 20,000 and the guaranteed salary was Rs. 25,000. Is this to be accepted? Thank you.

Thank you. Members, is there any discussion on this? Or is this a roll call vote? Mr. Clerk, Commissioner Perdue.

Yes.

Commissioner Knight.

Yes. Commissioner Belzec. Yes. Commissioner Kilgore. Yes.

Commissioner Nassi. Yes. Mayor Lerande. Yes. Can you give a statement about the election? Yes. Can you give a statement about the election? Yes. Can you give a statement about the election? Yes.

Commissioner Kilmer. Thank you, Mayor. A new decree is being issued, calling for a new utility valve specialist. This decree will help to establish a union to operate and operate major utility valves in the water supply system. H.R. The details of the H.R. program have been included in the packet. Thank you. Since there are no further discussions, Mr. Clerk can conduct this as a voted by.

Commissioner Perdue.

Yes.

Mayor Land. Yes. The vote has been passed. Shall we announce a vote for the immediate election?

Yes. Yes.

Are there any opponents? The election has been passed. Since there are no other elections or general elections on today's agenda, this is the second opportunity to give feedback to the public. I remind the people that this is an opportunity to speak to the Commission. Please come forward and say your name. Please try to pay attention to the time. I will give everyone a small amount. But please try to speak within three minutes. Namaskaram. Shall I press the small button on that microphone?

Pardon me. Okay.

Yes. Namaskaram, Commissioners. My name is Shiona Nadusky. I am honored to have been able to participate in the Community Relations Commission. I am a member of the Moon Sinegai and Grand Rapids Community. Every month, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the second Thursday, from 30 minutes to 1120 Monroe Avenue NW, I would like to welcome you all to our Grand Rapids Community Relations Commission Yogi, which was established in 2011. Our Yogi is open to the public, and we welcome the opinions of the community. I have something to say. I would like to thank the Grand Rapids Fire Department, the Hort Hort team, and all our public security officers for their wisdom and dedication. As our city grows with the arrival of Accure Amphitheatre and Amway Soccer Stadium, we are celebrating the celebration and participation that helps residents and visitors to enjoy these events safely. As we celebrate the growth of Grand Rapids, I would like to ask a few questions. The changes in Medicaid that are coming will affect some residents. The changes in the terms of some foreigners who live legally in October 2026 and the new employment conditions for some beneficiaries in January 2027 will be included in this. What do we do to solve these problems in terms of the city and the community? How do we develop clinics, health centers, labor-intensive facilities and employment centers that meet the needs of the people? What do we do to ensure that the residents understand these changes before they happen? What do we do to help families, ex-soldiers, immigrants, disabled people and workers move forward through a more inclusive system? Today, I do not expect an answer to this, but I assure you that we will be asking these questions together. It is not only because of development, but also because of how well we take care of our residents and by helping each resident to find their own opportunity and sense of belonging, the powerful Grand Rapids is being built. Thank you again for your time and for your continued service to our community. Greetings, Commisioners. My name is Matthew. I live in Theridu Ward. I am standing next to Kasia's six-bedroom apartment. I have come here again to cancel the Floke cameras and cancel Floke Carrar. I had intended to offer a small tribute to all of you for bringing Floke Carrar under the supervision of the City Council. But when you look at what Mayor Land said and what Mr. Washington said, I don't think there will be a proper discussion about this next year. I can't accept that. I have seen that the FLOC is insisting on your constitutional rights. I don't think they can be trusted. Their sole responsibility is not with our city or this commission. After I talked to you for the last time, you don't have to believe my words. After I talked to you for the last time, the sheriff of Rayson County, Wisconsin, asked them to sign the papers and said, they will take this data that we don't know, use it, make money, and sell it to other organizations. We agreed to all that. But unfortunately, when they agreed to the flow and signed the papers, that's what we agreed to. This does not end there. As Wisconsin's Sheboygan city continues to misuse data, the next step to end your career has appeared. The Sheboygan Police Department received an email from the executive of the Floke Safety Account. In it, the Sheboygan Public Works Department was offered an anonymous offer to sell traffic volume, vehicles, speed, etc. data, and to use the remaining 15 cameras to deliver data for up to five years. The Sheboygan Police Department did not know whether it was illegal or not, and they did not agree. They may not have known, but they agreed like the GRPD did for us. So, as I said, not only in Wisconsin, but also in the past two weeks, Floke has been accused of lying about the laws of the Constitution. I can't believe them, but I agree that they have told us a truth. It's not about them, it's about their opponents. Floke is the only ALPR president who hasn't died. So, Mr. Washington, as you said earlier, I don't want to send a letter to another vendor next year. I want all ALPR letters to be removed and their hardware to be removed from our city. Thank you for your time. Hello everyone. I am happy to see you all again. I have three things to say quickly. So I would like to say them as soon as possible. First, the most important thing is about Floki. Thank you all for the open discussion that took place last time. It was very long. I saw that you continued even when I got down. Thank you for the effort you made for it. I would like to thank you for your quick action that brought this LPR game under surveillance. I heard a lot of thoughts about it. So, thank you. I have added this now, but I am trying to make sure that we are not changing to another vendor in the future. I know that Aaxan is another vendor. Even though the auction is precious, they are looking for ways to show that their cameras can be installed faster and easier than Floki. So there are a lot of things to discuss about it. Secondly, I would like to talk about today's event at the Kent County Sheriff's Office. Thank you for all your questions. I am trying to investigate as much as I can during my work. Since I work related to audio, it is very difficult to hear everything. However, I thank some questions. Especially Commissioner Perdue, thank you very much for all those things. Mayor, thank you for sharing your personal experiences. Alicia Mary, thank you for talking about the referendum in the county. More discussions are needed about this. More discussions are needed to ensure that the funding we provide is not just more and that such significant needs are being met. All these things come very quickly, so we have to be very careful when we ask things like property tax. Finally, if we talk about VU, I talked about VU when I came here last time. The first time I ran it, it was a big success. The second thing is about the housing industry. As I saw on Reddit, I talked about some problems in the mobile GR housing industry, especially in terms of the amount to be paid. In some places, it seems that it is more to be paid when looking at it in terms of geography. I am grateful that they made things clear. But I think it will be easier to explain how we can stop the urbanization through urban planning. Also, I think it will be easier to stop the urbanization if more restrictions or changes are made in some places. So, if we make it clear through a city-wide initiative, we can come up with a lot of ideas to fulfill the needs of those in need. Because it felt a little odd on my first trip, and I didn't get any membership-like facilities there. These were the overall opinions about the city's initiative, Viva. Still, thank you for all the things you do. We really appreciate it. So thank you all. Hello, my name is Gail. I am a member of Ward 2. Thank you very much for talking to me about Floki today. I would like to share our opinions on Floki's visit to the City Council. I really appreciate it. I hope we can move forward like this. I know that all of you here have made it clear that you are interested in seeing things, especially in Maryland. Therefore, I would like to talk about some of the arguments against FLOC and why you should not accept it as a serious violation of the law. There is an argument that FLOC is doing good for the city. This is the meaning of the crimes that help prevent this. I don't think it's a strong argument. Because there are many things that the government can do to protect the people. If we don't think about the fourth step, why shouldn't we create a DNA database for everyone in the city? It will help to solve a number of crimes. Yet, we choose not to do it. When we accept Floki, why don't we do it? I think there is a possibility of breaking doors in the name of police and suspicion. It may be another way to completely avoid the fourth step. Those warrants are not a problem. If we avoid the fourth category, we can create a more developed city. But just like Flock, these things have a terrible effect on the citizens. Flock is against our perception of police surveillance and the fourth category, and it is an effort to exploit the emotions by using false information that claims it does good. Moreover, I feel that this is a brave effort to oppose the Bahujana Nirekshana Samyadhan. I think we can do the best in this. There are rumors about license plates and tracking, right? License plates are not visible to anyone in the public, right? Then what is the big problem in being tracked? I have nothing to do with this. No one is saying that the license plate should be hidden. That is, no one has said that I have spoken so far. But that is not a tracking tool. The government uses it only in times of emergency to know your vehicle. It's not something you can always use without a reason. Last week, I talked about a pre-crime. I know my time is up, but when you do a flocomite arrest, the phone is bigger than a tracking device. And, private companies use smartphones to track your movements from one place to another. Fourth, private companies do not control what is needed. If you accept it instead of their services. And, the United States Supreme Court does not allow third parties like the police without a warrant to receive details. A phone needs a warranty. But floc cameras don't need it. Why don't floc cameras need a warranty? Thank you for your time. Thank you for letting me pass the time. Have a good day. Namaskaram, Commissioners. My name is Chris Cranston. Even though I live in Ward 2, I work for the Westside Corridor Improvement Authority. So, I am speaking for Ward 1 today. Even though I intended to speak at the beginning, it was cancelled. So, this is a thank you statement for passing the agenda. Still, I thought I could give my opinion. That is, I am speaking about the Gateway Signage Project of the now passed Westside Corridor Improvement Authority. So, thank you. This is the first such system in the city. This has never been done before. The aim of this is to give a clear vision that you are on the west side and that it is expensive to come here. There are a lot of things to do for our residents and visitors on the west side. This will be done. All this will be done by the businessmen and residents who consider the west side as their home. These boards welcome you to the west side in English. Also, this is a place for shopping, food, work, drinking, and saving. Needless to say, we are very excited about this project. This is a long-awaited project. So, again, thank you for passing this agenda. We are eagerly waiting to see these boards being built in the spring. So, again, thank you. We appreciate everything you do. Make it right. Surprise! Thank you for listening to my hearing and for working with me today. As a part of this, I would like to know the status of my commitment to the Emerging Developers grant. The commitments submitted before the program changes were made clear in the municipal councils that the program would be implemented under the actual program itself. It was in that confidence that I made the commitment and made the decisions related to it. I have not received any information about when my commitment will be implemented. This creates new difficulties for people. The Emerging Developer Programme started with the aim of helping people and individuals who have been excluded from historical sites. The Redlining was aimed at eliminating illegal entry and entry-free entry into the region. This was often done with bans from the Municipal Council in the past. Thank you. Hello, my name is Sighand Jordan. I am a business owner in Granville Avenue. I have been running this business for 28 years. It is a saloon. I am also an emerging developer, waiting for this opportunity to move forward. We have followed all the procedures, but we are still waiting. What do you mean by being an emerging developer, is what I have to ask the City Council. Because it was the developers who did not want to receive this fund. My husband and I have been working for a long time to create an emerging developer program since the time Jono was here. I know that the credit for our work is taken by others, but we did this job ourselves. We are members of this community. We have a great desire to take the work we started with other emerging developers forward, but we feel that we are neglecting ourselves. Can God help us to understand what is happening here? Can he make it clear about the West Side's activities? Advocates for new signage coming to the West Side. When John or John O'Connor were here, I said this. But when I was in the West Side, I was in the South West. Why didn't you understand it as North West? We have been talking about this for a long time. That's why people have a lot of doubts now. They don't know if I'm on the North West side or the South West side. I'm on the South West side, but when they go to the North West side, they only say West side, not North. God, there is more to be explained in implementing such things. Don't hesitate to raise your voice. You also raise your voice for other things that hurt you, right? We feel the same way. We want to make things clear. We are in a state of great loss. We feel that the things we have saved are of no value to us. But we value the many things you have done. But there is still a lot more. Always. Thank you very much. Greetings to the Mayor and the Commissioners. My name is John Malaloya. In this city, a disabled child is taken to school. A businessman leaves home before sunrise. A man goes to see a doctor. After his death, a man changes his way home to feel safe. A man comes to the town hall to talk in this microphone. Cameras spread their vehicles on the long roads along the way, and they hide where and when they pass by, and they keep an eye on a database where that information can be found. They are not those who are suspected of any crime. They just live their lives. I wish to find those who have not been seen. I wish to take back stolen cars. I wish to be responsible for those who commit crimes. I understand why it is so important for an employee to be able to help others. I want you to understand that safety is more important than being safe in your own community. Not only what a responsible employee is doing today, but also what is going to happen tomorrow. We need to believe that the government will never be abused, so we can't grow our faith. Before abuse happens, we need to grow our faith by governing the government. This microphone is only available to the residents for a few minutes. The flock gets a permanent entry to government offices across the country. The company gets the revenue it deserves. The public sees the dangers. The people who are being inspected have the right to remain silent like the people who sell cameras. I advocate the public support for the Grand Rapids to bring this initiative under its supervision. It was a beginning, but it is not the end. May God prevent the spread of the virus to those outside. Make sure that the characteristics of a human being are thoroughly examined and that the flow is properly maintained. Choose faith more than God's inspection. Choose a human nature more than corporate interests. Choose a community more than age. Before the cameras are installed, install the permission of God to the public. Thank you.

Greetings, commissioners, residents, Mr. Mayor. I am Steve Bennett. I am a resident of Ward 3. Let me repeat the words of my co-operators. Yes. Thank you for the great decision to bring the surveillance cameras under surveillance, but it will not be enough as everyone is pleading. I can tell you again about the circumstances of accepting government details for a crime that could still happen. But I believe that the main problem in this is faith, as the person who spoke just before said. When I came out about six months ago and started talking to each and every one of you, we were talking about faith. Many of you have been telling me about the real victories we have achieved in the methods of swimming that can be achieved in Grand Rapids. Is that enough? If you don't, someone will tell me that it is a mistake to trust the people of this city. We need real examples and real solutions. This is also the case with the police. I am here because of an incident that I call a murder, but others call it a murderous act. There is a big trust issue here. I am an old man. I am white. I know how safe I am. But I don't think most people like me are safe when they see a police officer. This is what is constantly being told to you. This is what is constantly being told to me. I think it is a reality. It is a real mistrust of the people to legal children. That's not right. You and I know that. Also, we can get into that topic. Sanctuary Policies, 6 Sanctuary Policies required by the COSET, and the response of the Grand Rapids against ICE have been discussed. I believe that the city has accepted the actions. But there is no proper consultation. I think that more consultation is needed on this issue for those who blame the Commission and the Mayor for you. Finally, license plate readers. You can speak. Are they the ones who prevent crimes? I don't know. I know that it will be beneficial. But many of you may have heard about the warrants that the Deputy Chief of the Public Safety Committee denies. Oh! I think that was a tongue twister. I don't believe that police license plate readers will use warrants to hide them. But that's what he said, and that's what made me believe. I have spoken to you and many others about the word tradition. Your tradition, this is the time for it. Thank you. Hello, my name is Charlie Snedeker. I am a permanent resident of West Michigan. First of all, I am standing here as a member of the M-Movement coalition, and I would like to say that I am required by the CET Council to approve six amendments. I am standing here today because I believe that it is my right as a citizen to protect the rights of the United States to ensure the security of the United States of America. Data institutions, artificial intelligence, and security agencies should be able to provide public services, but their use should be responsible, responsible, and self-sufficient. I am talking about the protection of personal privacy and digital data. I am talking about the protection of personal privacy and digital data. I am talking about the protection of personal privacy and digital data. I am talking about protection of personal privacy and digital data. I am talking about protection of personal privacy and digital data. I am talking about protection of personal privacy and digital data. It is necessary for people to know what information is accepted, why it is accepted, and how it is protected. There should be a free and responsible response to the social issues that affect the public. It is necessary to develop and use the social issues to save lives, strengthen society, and protect the environment. I believe that I believe that freedom of expression and public safety should never be an unnecessary sacrifice for local freedoms. It is when security and freedom work together that they become most powerful. I express a feeling of respect for the human rights of each and every human being, who use them to comfort, educate, protect, and empower other people. We can all agree on the fact that the use of artificial intelligence and the use of artificial intelligence is a matter of personal freedom. Therefore, I need to stop any kind of inspection of flocks in Grand Rapids immediately. We don't need flocks in our city, we don't need auxon, we don't need Palantir, we don't need unnecessary inspections. It's all wrong.

Namaskaram, Mayor, Commissioners. My name is Karol Wood. I have been living in Grand Rapids downtown for 18 years in the first ward of Placid Towers. I am also a member of the Development Association that helped bring the Acro Amphitheatre to our downtown. I am grateful for the opportunity to speak today because this project represents the support of volunteers, community leaders, local businesses, more powerful Grand Rapids and the riverfront. The aim was to create a music festival from the beginning itself. The aim was to attract visitors, to promote businesses, to make the river a sanctuary, and to create a long-term economic and social property that can contribute to the continuous growth of Grand Rapids downtown. The foundation of this project had been started long before the first operation. Construction activities created meaningful opportunities for small businessmen, subcontractors, entrepreneurs, and non-entrepreneurs in West Michigan. This method created more than 10 billion dollars of economic activity to ensure that the benefits of this investment are gained to the community from the beginning by providing the best possible businesses with low demand and demand. We can see good results in the first season itself. In this amphitheater, about 3,887,000 people participated in the dozen-county public events. More than 800 business opportunities were created through this. There are reports that the activity of local businesses has increased and the number of hotel residents has increased in the last few months of the season. This is very important for our metropolitan area. These are the main indications that the benefits of this method of accommodation are now being obtained. This amphitheater is also very important in the major changes in the riverfront. This facility helps to open new new places, new opportunities, paths, and riverfront activities. This will be useful for residents throughout the year. This amphitheater is a part of the beautiful scenery that connects the Grand Rapids to its river. Instead of seeing the sound clearly in this, I see it as a proof that the scenery about the city is fruitful. Music, crowds, enthusiasm, all these make people decide to spend time in the Grand Rapids. As far as I am concerned, that energy is positive. It is a great addition to urban life. Otherwise, it is not a hindrance. This method shows what happens when the public and private sectors unite for a common goal. The success we see today is also the result of this year's celebration, celebration and participation. We are proud to continue to be responsible observers and responsible members of this community. I would like to express my gratitude to the Commission's leadership and the support of the residents and business partners who helped to make this scenario come true. I believe that the amphitheater of the more powerful Nagarapradesh is still being built. The biggest benefit of this is yet to come. So, I would like to express my gratitude to your support, leadership and your response to the Nagarapradesh. I would like to express my gratitude to your support for the long-term economic, social and riverfront activities that are taking place in the coming years. Thank you.

Hi, I'm Sam Cummings. I live in the second ward of Grand Rapids. I work in the city. I also clean the toilets here. But that's not why I'm here today. I'm here to say that it's been three and a half months since this amphitheater was opened. This reminds me of something that happened 30 years ago, on October 1996, when the Van Handel was opened. It was about how the people's view of our city, the heart of West Michigan, changed. It showed how important our city is not only to the residents here, but also to this vast area. Because there are still big cultural and cultural centers here that attract people from the Midwest. We as residents of West Michigan are proud of this. But today's events are different from 1996. In 1996, Our aim was to bring new corporate establishments and businesses to our city centre, and to make them feel the energy that was rising at that time. We encouraged them to find a source of income in those wonderful opportunities, and we helped them reach our goal of a 24-hour city. But the 24 hours of that day were different from today. I think we have won to a certain extent. The city's power of movement is still down-down. Most of the activity of our city comes from down-down. But things are a little different today. Today, let's complete that area on the other side of our target time. How to build a city for the residents, and at the same time, how to maintain it in the same way is important. Therefore, I operate in the form of an underground service. We manage the buildings and other things, but it is the people who find benefit in those buildings who decide to rent and live there. If they don't pay rent, if they don't feel the value of the land, that land will become a sin. Therefore, it is very important for us that this agreement is carried out correctly. I am happy to say that our employees are very happy with the new investment and energy that Amphitheatre has brought in three and a half months. Not only because of our actions, but also because of the people around us, it is a new way of thinking about how we interact with each other. It feels like time has passed. Thank you very much for everything you do. Even though sometimes it is difficult, we appreciate you. That is why we are grateful. Congratulations to everyone in the name of Amphitheatre. Good day to the commissioners. I am Ron Vanderen. I am the editor-in-chief of Cunningham Dolman PC. I represent all the condominiums located on top of the Plaza Tower. They have no problem with having an amphitheater. In fact, some of my clients are those who participate in amphitheater music events and enjoy it. The problem is that they do not like those music events to be brought into their reception rooms. That is, when you come home at night and try to watch TV, you think someone is riding a Harley-Davidson bike in your bedroom. You think you're talking to someone on a Friday night. You want to talk to them, but it's not possible because you're riding a Harley-Davidson bike in your bedroom. These music activities are very high. Before the construction, we submitted a professional report to the Planning Commission, saying that the sound level at the top of the Plaza Tower would be around 90 decibels. That was announced by the Planning Commission, but now we can see that the maximum sound level in music performances is around 90 decibels. This is not something that happens only once. This happens about 50 times a year during the rainy season. That is why our clients are against the current behavior of amphitheaters. Yes, all other items in the city must be operated according to section 9.65 of the ordinance code. The noise from the amphitheater from the lower floor is determined by the noise range from 62 to 69 decibels. According to the developer planning commission, the following of the amphitheater will be the same in the special space permit period before the planning commission. Now we are hearing 90 decibels from the music. When we think that the decibels are not increasing equally, this is very different. Each 10 decibel increase is the measurement of the volume of the sound. So, when you go from 60 to 90, you increase the frequency of the sound by 2, 4, and 8 times, so it has to be adjusted. But now, the circuit code says that it is section 9.65. The City Hall, Amphitheatre Authority, Convention and Arena Authority and Amphitheatre have stated that there are no restrictions on Amphitheatre. But the judge did not accept it. The question is, when will the city council hold an ordinance to reduce the noise in the amphitheater at the time of the judgment? When will the report of the amphitheater sound monitoring be released? The city and the authorities who know the convention are against the release of those details. The amount of noise after the amphitheater will be shown. For our clients, we request you to protect the residents who live near the Affiliate. Protect them from the noise that hinders their sleep. Just like that, they want to sleep at 10 o'clock at night. Sir, you are a professional. Your 3-minute time passed 10 seconds ago. It passed quickly. Thank you. Anyway, we request you to protect those residents and to carry out the ordinance. Thank you. Thank you. Namaskaram. My name is Michael, last name C-A-G-A-N Gagan. I live in a condominium on the 15th floor of Placid Towers. I bought it in 1998, about 28 years ago. When JW and its hella stope were banned, my relatives strongly opposed it. So I came and gave my different opinion. When Greg Gilmour asked for a discount for 20 Monroe Live, it upset many of my fans. So I came and shared my excitement with the crowd. Gilmour had arranged a meet and greet. In the basement of his Bob's house. One of the fans asked Gilmour if he would give a discount to the shows to reduce his anger. Gilmour said no. On the other hand, you can give $50 to that person to go. The Bob opens on Wednesdays to make use of the space in the Acquire Affiliate. Other businesses can also make money from this. Last week, my music was in very low sound. When I opened a shop, I could hear the sound of the music that was going on there. However, to make it clear, motorcyclists, police, fire department, ambulances, etc. even block my condo's regular meetings. It's not that I belittle the police. The list of condos that sell in my neighborhood is now showing the same situation. The reason is that the people who come to each show, whether it is 5,000, 8,000 or 10,000 people, are attracted to the people from outside. Some people decide to buy a condo in my city. It is good for the value of my property. There is a reason for that. There are many reasons for that. It is because Kent County is one of the three counties in Michigan where the population has increased. On the other hand, I did not expect it. I did not make a budget for buying tickets for the first season of Acquire for nine shows. But I did it somehow. Yes, oh, wait, that's my problem. May God allow them to make the necessary noise for the growth of my city. Thank God. Move your friends away from Grand Rapids. I was about to speak. It was about that orange felon and his activities that destroyed this country. But I'm taking a break from it. I'm not interested in the rumours about the sound of the amphitheater. But let me tell you, I have to tell you this too. There is only one thing that you can't control. It's the sound. Because the sound changes. This is one thing. To tell you the truth, those who live in plaza tables will have to deal with this sound. I don't have any objection to them, but... Nature is higher than anything else. It's higher than Grand Rapids, Kent County, West Michigan and Meghalaya. I can see the growth. It's a jump. But it is not yet considered as a modern cultural heritage. As I said earlier, Vanu Arina has to be recognized. Arina's image is still in 1996. The time has passed. Today's Vedas are about premium seating, club seating, and club facilities. Adambara suits and the experience of the Vedas. That was what we had to do. Six years ago, when nothing happened during the Covid period, you could have made use of it, you could have done it for the country. You could have done it by following safety rules and Covid tests, but you didn't do it. Now, it will be more time-consuming and will cost more money for transportation. So, if I were you, I would talk about this. The reason is that the main activities of the olden days will change at some point. You do not want that to happen. Because it will be the reason to hide even a large amount from this area at some point. That's why I'm thinking about this. Let's make sure. Grand Rapids will continue to grow in the city. Revenge 2026. Thank you. As there is no other general opinion, I turn to the commissioners for general opinions. Commissioner Sasi.

Thank you. Thank you all for coming here tonight. I would like to make a small reminder. I don't have much to say. I think a lot of things are going on because it's the week after Avadi. But this week's festival is in Mexico, one of the oldest cultural festivals in the city. It's about to start. I believe they will start on Friday and Saturday. So I think you can all see there. There are a lot of businesses there to support Pindu. I know this will be a difficult time. We talked a lot about what we can do today. But I think you will be able to help the businesses that are there to support Pindu. Thank you.

Thank you, Commissioner Knight. Thank you, Mayor. I don't have much to say. I am grateful for some of the announcements I received today. In particular, I believe that people will pay attention to the information received from the Millage in Kent County and will ask about it in depth, because it is a matter of voting. We want to ensure that what we do does not affect our residents too much. Many are now facing financial difficulties. They are struggling to pay rent, to fill their vehicles, to take care of their families. These kinds of things are causing a lot of expenses. Therefore, we believe that everyone will pay attention to this issue and will make the right decision when they vote in November. Thank you. Thank you, Commissioner Perdue. Yes, have a good weekend everyone. Thank you all for joining us this weekend and for sharing your opinions. I have a few things to say in connection with public safety. Today we spoke very respectfully about the Jail Millage that was supposed to come on the vote in November. So please see the announcement of the Sheriff. It is one that gives a lot of details. As well as our discussion afterwards. I remind you again, this will be in your ballot in November. You can decide whether you want to continue the protest for the next 20 years, just as you have now for the protestors and protesters. In today's discussion, I will talk about some of the benefits of a protest against the government. But there are also some concerns related to the financial situation and other problems in our system. I believe that there is no guarantee that a secure society will be established in this direction. I would like to say a few words about FLOC related to public safety. I was out for a conference that was held two weeks ago. I will make a small report in a few minutes. However, I would like to thank the people of the public and the commissioners for their support in this matter. I would like to thank the people of the public for their support in this matter. We have been talking for months about how the fluke system was avoided without our supervision. Therefore, I would like to thank you, CET Manager Washington, for this quick action. So, if you ask what is happening to it now, it is under our supervision, so we can make sure of a substantial improvement, right? As a part of this, it is now necessary to discuss the purpose of the Constitution, how to use it effectively, how to access the details, how to access it, how to collect all the resources available to the public, and how to make it available to the public. So I think this is a big step forward. Quality is the first step. After quality, what is the standard that we actually need? What is the standard that suits our society? It is not only about quality, but also about how it should be used in our situation. What should be the appropriate uses? What should be the ways to keep the details in mind? What should be the ways to share details with the second party? So I am happy that these discussions will continue. We will not wait until the next year. As someone pointed out, our Public Safety Committee, which includes members of the CET Commission and the public, will lead such lively discussions. Let me remind you that the Public Safety Committee itself acts as a surveillance oversight committee. Therefore, those members are very important. Over the past few years, I have seen this as one of the most important things they have investigated. Especially, they have a great interest in how to shape it, how to inspect it, and what to decide next year. I would like to thank everyone once again for paying attention to the inspection methods in this era of the Constitution. We are very progressive. I know that the Constitution is not a big deal. If we think about technology and software, we can create anything we want. In reality, technology and human beings are in a difficult situation. The main reason for ensuring human control in technology is to ensure that it is done in a very religious and responsible manner. So it is about public safety. I would like to point out that the financial development project team was held today and I would like to point out that the financial development project team was held today and I would like to point out that the financial development project team was held today and I would like to point out that the financial development project team was held today One of the important things is that the art price is going to go up very quickly. We have discussed how we can bring this art price to the top of the charts. One way to do this is to reduce the price of the heart side and the south side. In other words, there will be special events on the tekkukizhakkan side and the heart side. So I expect you all to check it out. Finally, as part of my activities in the commission, I would like to talk about a meeting I participated in two weeks ago. It was a meeting for everyone. It was a five-day meeting for everyone. I would like to share with you some of the important things that were received from that meeting. In our country, we talk about the importance of freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of speech. We know that there are many people here who speak about the right to hold arms and arms. Apart from those who follow the 1st and 2nd Vedas, we call on you to become those who uphold the 14th Vedas. The 14th Vedas is the time for us to say what is necessary for everyone. If you are a believer in the 14th Vedas, I would like to invite you to share what you have learned from the Sankadakar and to be a part of those activities. 14. Those who believe that each person has the right to equal protection from the government, legal justice, and complete recognition. 15. Those who believe that freedom is not only the end of violence, but also the creation of opportunities and public institutions that can be developed for all. It reminds us that the government is responsible for providing clean water, good schools, good employment opportunities, safe society, health, and basic necessities. The 14th Vedic religion believes that the public should value those who are historically excluded or excluded, and not those who are equal to everyone. On the other hand, the 14th section of the Constitution states that the government must be responsible and responsible for its actions. In the words of the COE, they say that the government must love them. I am very happy that I have been able to join a community of more than 4,000 people across the country. In times like this, I have been able to hear what it means to love everyone from the perspective and practical point of view. How can we change the life-forms of the people by making this universal promise of equality and protection a reality? Therefore, I am very happy that I am confident that I am a believer of the 14th scripture and that all of you are willing to join me in it. So, thank you. Commissioner Kilgar

Thank you, Mayor. I would like to express my gratitude to all the people involved in today's activities. It was a very productive day. The main topic of the day was to hear about the upcoming budget changes regarding the third-ward equity funds. We will begin the proceedings in our next meeting to speed up these procedures. I, along with Commissioner Perdue, have implemented some methods that have brought about significant changes in the financial year of the 27th with the support of the Commission. I am waiting for it to happen. I am very grateful to those who continue to oppose you against the Flood. I can hear you clearly. I support the moratorium that we have set up on the ground. There will be no more discrimination. I support it. When I get a call, I will say no. Moreover, public safety is a continuing relationship. Many call this a continuous debate. But it's all a relationship. Our husbands, wives, partners, and loved ones are not angry with us, and it is like how we behave not to argue with each other. There is a little doubt about that. I believe that our new police officer, Chief Trigger, is also a relationship. He will join me in the life quest of Grand Rapids from 5 p.m. next Tuesday to 7 a.m. next Tuesday. The price for a community conference on public safety is 1050 Fisk Road, Southeast Grand Rapids, Michigan 4957. So you will get the CET Commission update from me and the Grand Rapids Police Department update from Cheap Trick. There will also be time for questions. It would be good to take us out of the CET hall and bring us to our destination. This is my destination, so I will walk. That's why I'm waiting for this. Because this is a relationship that requires continuous action and response from the outside. Therefore, I would like to thank the GRPD, the GRPD, and NANDI for joining me in this. In addition, I would like to thank all of our members who are telling us clearly what we are doing during busy days. Therefore, I would like to thank all of you and wish you a good afternoon. Commissioner Belt, thank you.

Thank you to the Mayor and the co-operators. I think there have been a lot of discussions today, so I'm not going to repeat them. Please go and see. I believe that our community, my co-workers, and the people of the city have put forward some great ideas. Therefore, I urge you to let us know what your opinions are and what is happening. Through that, we will be able to understand what is happening on the other side of what you are doing. So today, Mayor, I don't want to take your time. But we heard that you held a press conference about Welcoming Week this morning. Wherever you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, no matter where you come from, Two weeks ago, I was invited to a Punjabi social or sports club. I was able to see very interesting Indian dance and music. Commissioner Kilgore was also there. We really enjoyed a completely different culture than what we usually see. This is a part of our community. It is one of the many different cultures here. A few weeks ago, we held a Polish festival. There are Hispanic celebrations organized by Commissioner Isasi. So when I think about welcoming, I want to think about who we are and how we behave. I want to think about our history. I was given the opportunity to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the historic photo of the Grand Rapids African American Museum and Archives. It was the year 1950. This event was held by the Urban League. Thank you for the small reminder. I was about to come to it, but the Urban League held this big event, and Mani from the National Urban League was also there. It was known as a great welcome. It was related to the first Urban League National Conference held by the Grand Rapids history. It is now known as Amway. But it was Pantland at that time. My head suddenly changed and thought. I knew it was a name that started with a P. Yes, it's a beautiful picture. It will be shown there. I think there were about 100 people there. It was the first time African Americans or Black Americans were allowed to stay in a hotel as white people. The first place where the National Urban League held such an event was Grand Rapids. I think it is a great example of how we can continue as a historical society when we hold our hands and welcome them. So let me stop here. I will take part in more historical events that are to come. I would like to celebrate things like the 190th anniversary of the Park Church. Why Westside is called Westside, I am going to discuss with the historians of our society. I have a theory. That is, because the west side of the river is on the west side, but the south-west side is actually on the north side of the river. But that is just one of the principles. The rest is left to our co-considered principles.

Mr. Clerk. That's all I have to say. If you want to see the full picture of the election I held at the Committee of the Whole, please watch that video to know about the election that will take place in August.

Thank you. C.E.T. Adorni. A reminder that we are on hold from the closed session. After this meeting, I request that we return to it. We are not withdrawing this meeting. We are on hold from this meeting because we are returning to the closed session. It is always nice for the speakers to come and decide to be part of the national drama. But you know that you have the best government speakers in Michigan. So I believe you can make the most of the decisions here. I know you have faith in me. Thank you. Thank you, Mayor.

After Labor Day, I would like to thank all the city residents and our CET Attorney for their hard work. I would also like to thank everyone who took part in the preparations for today. Today, I would like to say a few words about the development of communities in rural areas. If we look at more than 1,700 communities across the country, whether they are cities, townships or villages, and if we look at the cities alone, between 2010 and 2020, only 24% of the communities had growth. If we look at all the other communities, half of them are growing. That is, if you are not growing, you are destroying. If we want to continue as a great society, we need to be a growing society. A part of that growth is to be a society that welcomes others. Communities that have a long history grow because they bring people from outside into their community. This is a part of the long history of the country. The other part is the history itself. We celebrated the 250th anniversary of the establishment of our country. That is why I am praising the announcement made by the Mayor today about the welcome ceremony. Because as I said in the morning, it is not only good for humanity, but also good for our community to grow and develop. Communities are growing through placemaking, hospitality, and great experiences. During this pandemic, we have made various places available in our city. We heard about the events that took place in the past week celebrating the historic moment of the Urban League. The amphitheater has also given a great impression to the community, and it has been possible through numerous efforts. Van Andel, Convention Center, Martin Luther King Center, etc. This will be one of the things we look at with pride. I would like to think about the future of our city. It is up to each one of us to build it. It won't be that easy. We will have to experience the pain of growing up. Even if it is public safety, or financial development, or providing equal opportunities to everyone, we have to face the challenges of a growing society. But we have to be able to overcome these challenges. We can't always blame each other and make it a national game. So, I am committed to building this society for everyone. For that, our lives are also committed. We are not complete. A part of the city is not at fault, but we are determined to get rid of it. I want to continue that. I am eager to know about the next phase of the pandemic that is to come when we get to the end of the pandemic. I would like to thank the CET clerk for today's announcement that we are continuing to show a good and positive process for the upcoming elections. Therefore, I would like to thank the CET clerk for your update and hope to see you all again in the coming weeks.

Thank you, CET Manager. I had three things to say, but I understood that I had four things to say. So, I will quickly say the first three things. First, I would like to thank the people here and those who are watching us to investigate our discussions on the Jail Millage proposal. I would like to reiterate some of the things I said earlier. A social discussion about the importance of the services provided to those in jail is essential. It was stopped a short time ago. So, if our jails have been temporarily closed, I would like to close the jails for those who are in jail and those who are returning to society. Because most of them are in this society, and most of them are returning to this society. So, I said that it is very important for them to check their methods when they go out. Because it is very important to help people return to society. Secondly, I always say that if I forget someone's name, it is not a compliment. However, thank you for your opinions on Eric, Kyle, Charlie, John, especially Floki. I think he is a great thinker. I would like to say that there are discussions with our vendor and that we will continue to discuss whether we need another vendor for baviyal number plate reading jobs. Another thing that I would like to confirm is that I think this needs to be made clear. That is, I don't think the courts have ever said that Floke Technology is the legacy of the fourth generation. But this does not mean that the city cannot decide whether or not there should be legal restrictions on things intended to protect the fourth generation. Therefore, the city can decide whether or not there should be legal restrictions on the transition of people's lives. It is also true that the scriptures that were not raised in the 4th century BC can now be translated into the present tense. Therefore, it is not common for us to think that it is impossible to translate things that are not in the scriptures. Even so, I believe that this is the discussion we usually have when we attend these meetings. Therefore, I thank you for continuing these meetings. Thirdly, I would like to point out that our new rideshare bikes in the city have been designed in a way that is more suitable for people below the 200% of the population of Dharuthi region. This would be a great achievement for them. Another thing I told my wife about yesterday is that there are mostly ponds in them. So, it's not just to get home from the amphitheater. You can also use it for shopping. So, I really hope that this will be a great way forward for our future generations. In addition, there are historical events that prevent accidents in these bikes. It's as important as it is about me. Because, once I went to hit a scooter on a street in the city, and I went to hit a scooter in front of my mother's house, I remember. So, I am happy to be able to introduce such an educational method in scooters. I think this will make them more safe. So, I wanted to draw attention to these things. Finally, let me tell you a personal thing. A few years ago, I made a video of four people I wanted to see before they died. Out of those four, I was able to see two. Now I can only see those two. The four people I wanted to see were Jimmy Carter. I was able to see him. I was able to see Bishop Tutu. I was not able to see Nelson Mandela. Wendell Burry opened this week. So, by reading a national poem by Wendell Burry, I would like to end this yoga session. Love the sudden profits, annual wage growth, and the increase in wages. Love that everything is ready-made and more is needed. Fear to know and fear to die. There will be a curse on your head. Your fate will not be a burden on you. Your mind will be closed in a small piece of a card. If they want to buy anything from you, they will call you. If they feel that you want to die for profit, they will let you know. So do something that can't count your friends every day. Love God. Love the world. Act without resistance. Use all that you have. Love someone who is not worthy. Love the government and the people. Try to live in a free republic that presides over it. Accept all that you cannot understand. Embrace the unknown. He has not destroyed what humans cannot see. Ask questions that are unanswered. Be patient. Plant Sequoia trees. Tell them that their main value is that you have not planted them and that you have not lived to plant them. Tell them that their value is when the leaves turn into dead leaves. Call it prosperity. Invite such actors. Believe in the two-inch humus that appear in trees for more than 8,000 years. Pay attention to the carry-on. Listen to the direct conversation of the songs that are being played with the ears closed. Wait for the end of the world. Smile. It is impossible to smile. Be happy with all the things in the world. Be happy with women who are less valuable than men for women's rights. Ask yourself, will a satisfied woman be satisfied with giving birth to a child? Will the sleep of the woman who is going to give birth stop this? Go to the mountains with your loved ones. Lie in the tunnel. Put your head on her lap and try hard. Show your thoughts what is closest to you. If you feel that your thoughts can reach the generals and the politicians, let go of it. Use it as an excuse to block the wrong path that you did not plan. Even if it is in the wrong direction that creates too much confusion in the need, it will still become like a seed. Live a new life. Thank you all. That's why it's not our fault. It's not our fault. If you say it again, it's our fault.
