Member Martin. Member Manner. Present. Member Robinson. Present, thank you very much.
Since we are three here now, we need three votes so that there are no votes against. The first is the approval of the agenda. Members, you had the opportunity to check the agenda. How would you like to proceed with today's agenda? I agree.
The agenda for today, Monday, July 17, August 2020.
Do we have any support? Do we have broad support? Questions, concerns or objections to today's agenda? Would you please look at the presence.
Member Schaffer.
Excuse me. Yes. Yes. Vice President.
Yes. And gentlemen, we cannot stop the meeting today, because we need the approval of a quorum. Yes, there are three people in the city council. The no from Mr. Altschul, that means that we cannot say goodbye to the agenda today.
If he leaves, we will lose our quorum.
And then it's all over.
Absolutely. He said no to me. And if I guess correctly, it looks like he wants to go.
Thank you.
Thank you. Yes, we have to, indeed, thank you for that, we do not have to file a petition. So, ladies and gentlemen, the audience and at home, what has just happened? So that the city council can hold a meeting, a quorum is required at a committee of members. Then the quorum is at 3. Mr. El Shafi voted against the approval of today's agenda. He stood up and walked away. The two of us here have no quorum, so we cannot continue the meeting. So, ladies and gentlemen, unfortunately we will not be able to hold a meeting today.
