I swear allegiance to the United States as the flag of the United States and the Republic, which symbolizes it, that is, one indivisible nation under God, a nation that brings freedom and justice to all.

11:01Speaker 4

Within 15 minutes.

11:02Speaker 1

No. Do you have any contact information from the mayor about his position other than Marcello's speech at midnight?

11:08 – 18:28Speaker 4

Yes. Everyone, I have been aware of this before I took office, but Shreveport should increase its rewards for police officers and firefighters. They are committed to a harsh and dangerous mission, and they are capable of hiring police officers and firefighters, securing experienced people, and maintaining the public safety that citizens should of course receive. The competitive reward is indispensable. Until now, I have stated that as long as there is no confirmation that additional funds can be secured and that 8% of the operating reserve can be maintained, it is not possible to carry out a continuous large-scale promotion with responsibility. I wanted to avoid suggesting or implementing temporary pensions that the city could not maintain in the future. In addition, I did not want to burden the citizens of Shreveport in the form of increasing taxes and raising salaries. It is my understanding that the citizens do not want either of them. Today, with the recent announcement of economic development, we have had the opportunity to move forward. Stack Infrastructure and Amazon Web Services announced that they will proceed with the Westport Data Center business. In addition, the city is expected to see a significant increase in income in relation to the construction of a mobile data center. These projects will also bring a large amount of new income to the city. First of all, a large number of people will be included. Next, there will be a payment of various amounts in exchange for sales tax. In addition, just as in Senrei in the northeast part of Louisiana, it is thought that the possibility of increasing sales tax income in the city will be high. The income from the construction permit, the payment in exchange for the tax in the construction, and the sales tax income that will increase in addition to these are all temporary. It was necessary to confirm that the payment was sustainable even after the temporary income was lost before proposing a high-class payment. We expect a franchise fee from the power sales to be received in addition to the fixed asset tax income expected from the data center at West Shreveport. When the facility is completed and started operating, the income from the power sales will also be expected. I decided that this promotion could last for a long time due to the estimated fixed asset tax and franchise income, which were not increased to the citizens due to the reduction of other administrative services and the destruction of operating reserve fees. With this in mind, I propose a promotion that was disappointed by the police and firefighters on December 1, 2026. Shreveport Police's proposal this time is to strategically focus on the police officers at the scene that are the most essential for adoption and retention. With this proposal, the salary of a 1-year police officer is raised from $49,578 to $52,120. In addition, a police officer with a good job performance will be paid a $2,500 retention allowance, At the end of the year, the total amount will be $54,620. This will deal with economic challenges in recruitment activities. If the police officer meets the standards of additional education and training, you can earn an income of $59,000 in the first year. In addition, the police officer and the chief will receive a $1,200 deposit every year from December 1, 2027 to the anniversary of the inauguration of the Chief of Police. This is to deal with the main financial problems in securing human resources. The compensation for the transfer of a police officer who has received a post certification has been raised from $10,000 to $15,000 so far, and it will be distributed for two years as usual. We expect this increase to contribute to the promotion of middle-class employment. The education allowance is increased by $1,800 per year. In the same way as the police, all civil servants and employees of Shreveport Fire Department will be charged with 6%. This is the same as the general salary of a police officer. In addition, the education allowance is increased by $1,800 per year, and the allowance of the EMT, intermediate emergency emergency, paramedics, explosives, and dangerous materials processing technicians is increased by $1,200 per year. These pensions are all added to the usual annual 2% pensions that police and firemen receive. If you add the pensions of the proposed police and fire, it will be an annual investment of about 6.9 million dollars for men and women who protect Shreveport. You may not know, but in 2021 to 2026, the salary of the police and the fire department increased by about 44% in addition to these pensions. And in the current government, the salary of the police and the fire department has increased by more than 19%. This does not include additional benefits and pensions. Public safety is the first responsibility of the private sector. これらの昇給は、警察官と消防士の奉仕と犠牲を評価し、優秀な人材を採用、維持する能力を強化し、経済発展がコミュニティに任つ永続的な利益をもたらすことを証明するものです。 This is the form of investment that should be realized by responsible economic growth. We can make this promise in a sustainable way with confidence because we have spent time on both short-term and long-term profits. And we can achieve this without asking the citizens of Shreveport for increase in taxes and fees. I would like to include the proposed salary in the budget for the year of 2027 and ask everyone in the board to consider and support it. What? Do you have any questions? Are there any questions or concerns about the property standards for Green City among the members of the committee? I think the list has been confirmed.

18:28Speaker 1

You should have already checked the list and handed it over.

18:31Speaker 4

I understand.

18:32 – 18:58Speaker 1

I understand. Thank you very much. You should have received a resumption plan and a report on the implementation from the Ministry of Finance. I don't have anything to respond to. Do you have a proposal to be added to the initial period today? No, I don't. Today, I will receive comments from the citizens of Gidai-gai and Gidai-komoku. A. The chairman is in charge of this Gidai. Please give me your name. It's a record, so you have three minutes to hold it.

18:58 – 19:48Speaker 3

It's Sammy Mars. Please stop. Sammy Mars, South Point Parkway 1133, room 111, Louisiana State Shreveport 71105. Today, I would like to speak about the resolution 9A89 and 9A90. These two resolutions are a great proposal. I am sure that these two resolutions are a great proposal. I am sure that these two resolutions are a great proposal. Thank you very much. Rachel Jackson and Victor Thomas

20:07 – 21:12Speaker 4

Hello, everyone. Hello. My name is Victor Thomas. I am a resident of District A. I would like to say hello to the chairman, other members of the committee, and the mayor of Arseno. I came with Rachel. This is Rachel Hill Jackson, the president of the Stony Hill neighborhood resident association. I would like to thank you for considering this project. I would like to thank you for considering this project. I would like to thank you for considering this project. I would like to thank you for considering this project. I would like to thank you for considering this project. We worked hard to find a solution. We express our sincere gratitude for the efforts of Sherry Riegel and Chuck Himes. It wasn't an easy job, but not only did they protect the operation of the spa, Thank you for your consideration and thank you again. Thank you for your support for this initiative. So, what does this mean specifically for the citizens? Rachel will talk a little about it.

21:22 – 22:03Speaker 3

Good evening, I'm Rachel Jackson. On behalf of the Stony Hill neighborhood resident association, I would like to read this. To all the members of the council, Mr. Tom Arsenal, Mr. Timmer Snow, Mr. Victor Thomas, Mr. Gary Brooks, and Mr. Sherry Legos, I would like to thank you. For the use of the former Valencia building, Thank you very much for your time and effort. Your support means a lot to our community. Thanks to your hard work, we were able to take a step closer to the vision as a community. This physical base will expand our program and provide a lot of support from local people. Thanks to your efforts, we will continue to provide programs safely for many years to come, Thank you. Thank you very much.

22:26 – 23:41Speaker 4

Thank you very much. Well, once again, everyone, this is a story of a lot of things. Please let me share this story. Rachel and I have spent about a year and a half on this kind of effort. A resident said that there is no more library in Stoner Hill, and his dissatisfaction rose. As you all know, the library system is not a mechanism that can be installed one by one in all neighboring areas. However, if there is such a conscientious effort, we can express our imagination and think beyond that frame. I don't want to talk too much in a public place, Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Rudolf Grass. Hello.

23:42 – 26:59Speaker 4

Rudolph Glass, 1735, 70,103. Well, first of all, I would like to say that in 2023, I submitted the documents to the road waste department. That was when Gary Norman and LeBron White were still in office. Yes. The only thing I wanted was for people to clean the sidewalk so that they could walk. That's about it. There was a place where the tree covered the sidewalk and I could not walk. There was no choice but to walk along the road. I pushed the director twice. I found the documents and showed them. They didn't have the documents. I don't know what happened, but I didn't have it. I brought some more. They promised to respond. But I didn't. I went back and asked about how the grass on the low street was growing, but it may have been done by the business, but it was a miserable job. There is nothing. I cut down the tree, but I left it on the sidewalk. In the morning, I go out of my house, climb the maple, go down the park, go back to Madison on the low street, and walk home again. At least 5 or 6 times, I have to leave the sidewalk and go to the sidewalk on the other side. There are some places where you can't pass with a wheelchair. I really want you to do something. I was in a hurry to come here, so I forgot to bring it to Dallas. I forgot, but I will give you copies one by one. Next is Portland and Lakes Shore. I've been involved in this case for about four years. They came to clean up. It was because the garbage was terrible. So they cleaned it up. But people are coming back again. They are repeating the same thing again. They also live under the bridge. Last time I came here, I told you that information. Mayor, I asked you for help, didn't I? When I heard it for the first time, you didn't say anything. Did you hear what you said for the second time? It was. That means it's still going on, so it's no. There is a drug deal that is in full swing and in full swing. There are times when 20 people are on the road or on the street. I don't want to see such a scene when I go home. I don't want to show it when my grandchildren go home. If it's another place in the city, that won't be allowed. I talked to one of the police chiefs. I also talked to the owner of the store. The owners said, I told him that I asked him to pick up the garbage. I understand. But they won't do it. They will come and talk and let me pass.

26:59 – 29:35Speaker 1

Mr. Glass. Yes. The time to hold is over. It seems that there is a need to consult with multiple departments. Please let me answer that. Is Detective Komei here? Can you come forward? How is the request I submitted? When was that? Two weeks ago. Two weeks ago. Two or three weeks ago. I think it was about a week ago. Actually, I think it was last week. I arrested two people on that site. I told them. Don't ever come to this site again. If you arrest me, I'll arrest you. I sent an email to the former president and all the police officers in that area. If you see someone, arrest them. I just came back today, but I confirmed my identity. If there is someone there, I will arrest you again. When I requested for the auction that was being held there, it was not only from Portland to Lakeshore, but also at the end of the street, right? It's over there. Yes. It's around Lakeshore and Virginia. Mr. Grass, the request has been submitted. I can confirm it. When we talked about the contract, there is also a record of the email to go there. When she told him to go there and stop him, he asked the Brattly 5-chome to watch the store. I saw people sitting in the parking lot and leaving the store, and I witnessed them throw away the garbage and make it terrible. If you go further along Portland Street, you will see the same scene in two gardens. I'm also looking for a solution. I was dragged into the management department, but I know what she did about it. It's the same thing with the street. The council submits a request. That's our job. We submit all those requests, and then the management has to carry them out. So she plays that role in the latest situation. However, they don't know what else to do in that area. All the requests have been submitted, and they have been sent to all the executive staff. There is also an order from the auditorium.

29:35Speaker 4

I am grateful for that. I know that you are doing your best to respond.

29:39 – 30:49Speaker 1

As I said, I will go there again tomorrow morning and check. The weekend is not here, so I will send an email again and consider what can be done. Mayor, about that horn, is there any measures to be taken because it will flow in from there? あそこの交通の流れを止めるには、どうすればいいでしょうか? 線路の下を通って橋を渡り、えーっと。 A, B, A, G, all three of them are involved. That horn is a hotspot. As you said. I broke the house. But I'll be back again. Previously, the asset standardist and waste management manager went there and collected all the garbage when she was putting out the truck. You can catch it by illegal entry, but I don't know how to deal with it anymore. I've said it many times. Please ask them what they can do.

31:15Speaker 4

I would like to consider what can be done in the presence of Secretary-General Smith and Deputy Secretary-General Tyler.

31:22Speaker 1

Thank you. Mr. Grass, thank you. Thank you.

31:24Speaker 4

Mr. Yolanda Thomas. Hello everyone.

31:43 – 32:25Speaker 1

Mayor, my name is Yolanda Thomas. I've been living in Surrey for a long time. I'm from Arendelle, the city. I think it was a little clearer to hear what you just said. The officials of each department are all in the auditorium, aren't they? I see. Mayor, do you know where I live? It's near Mount Canaan. Have you been there? Yes, of course. Many times. Is that so? When did you go last? Probably two weeks ago. Did you see the abandoned state there?

32:25Speaker 4

There is a place that is abandoned in many areas of this city, including Arendelle. So, you saw it being abandoned, right? Yes.

32:33 – 37:15Speaker 1

I understand. So, did you know that the state of abandonment has been going on for many years? Yes, chairman. Please ask her to speak through the chairman. I will refrain from answering. Yes, as she said now, これはあなたの行政から始まったようなものです。 少し前に、ある受け負い業者が来て、通りに機材を放置していった問題がありました。 彼はタブさんの協力を得て取り壊すよう依頼していた老朽化した家屋を取り壊しに来たのですが、 So he left the equipment as I did. I'll tell you that the equipment was huge. It was left there for months. For months. It's really hard to understand. In other words, if there is that big ugly tractor in front of the door every day, you will continue to see it. So I contacted Terence, the real estate agency, and carried my feet directly, but no one replied. So my last resort was to go to your office twice. When I showed the photo to the woman at the reception at the time, she said, Well, it's really big. That's right. So it was the last resort, but there was no contact from your office. So my last resort was Tab-san. When I finally got in touch with Tab-san, she immediately responded. She responded immediately. So, looking at the left-over area where I live, it's not a problem for you, and if you don't feel like solving anything, it's very easy. That is my concern. We have been left there for many years. The area where I live is treated as if it has been erased from the map. It seems that this part of the city has been closed. No one comes there and does anything. We are made to feel that way. We need to cut down the grass. One morning, when I woke up, a few men were working outside. Even though the grass was as tall as this building, he was working. So I said, shouldn't we cut down the grass first before we plant the drugs? Besides, we have to suck it in for a few days to plant such a chemical substance in our area. Besides, who would like to see tall bushes? あなたが巻いているのはそれです。それは金色とオレンジ色ですね。トーマスさん。わかりました、マダム。失礼いたしました。時間切れです。わかりました。わかりました。わかりました。あなたの地域で起きていることは、本当に心が痛みます。わかりますか?はい。私たちは大部分において、努力しているつもりですが。いいえ、私たちはあなたがここで提起したすべての問題に対して、一歩ずつ取り組んできました。 Yes, that's right. Well, there are still jobs that need to be done, such as road construction as Patsuman and others. However, I would like everyone to understand that it is felt like this at times. The council is criticized for everything and what it is going to do from now on, so it is not possible to show it every time, but we are sending emails. I'm sending it. I'm sending it to get it implemented. Mayor, the time is up, but just one word. As long as you are the mayor of this city, all areas should be treated in the same way as other areas. We work and pay taxes in all areas. In a state where our area is like that, my grandmother's house is in Dowling 511, and it was right in front of Kahneman Village. My cousin's house, which was behind my grandmother's house, collapsed. It's been like that for years. The entire house collapsed. It's been like that for years. So, mayor, if you need me to follow you, please take my car. I have something I want to show you. Look at what we're facing. If you're going to see the same sight as I do every day, I'm sure you can't stand it. Please treat everyone equally. Mayor, please treat all areas equally. If you need to guide me by car, I will. I understand. Next person.

37:15Speaker 4

Thank you very much.

37:16Speaker 1

Mr. Thomas, thank you very much. Mr. Harry Weiger.

37:19 – 37:35Speaker 4

Good evening, everyone.

37:35 – 40:45Speaker 3

My name is Perry Weisinger. I am currently living in Shreveport and reading the news. 1,750,000 gallons of water a day. That's how much water is accumulated from Crossco. If we didn't have to rely on the water of cows and Crossco, if there was a general method, according to the newspaper, it seems that the cause of the earthquake problem is the injection of underground water in the oil and gas business in the local area. What would you do if you could support them by providing them with a process of processing water that is disposed of by the oil and gas industry? I made a preliminary consideration, but I think there is a way to use that water to help the cooling of the data center. We don't need to change anything about what they're doing right now. We will provide water from the Schrieve port as a solid water source and store it. The water is collected at the Hainesville hot spring and sent to the pipeline, removing organic and solid materials by pre-processing. A yard is installed in the adjacent area and heat exchange is carried out through another cooling system. The only water touched by the computer chip is high-quality Schliebport water, but the heat is transferred to the hot spring water using a heat exchanger. If it's water, you can let it evaporate all day long. Is that a problem? The only thing that remains is the salt that has to be disposed of. No one knows. Maybe it contains a little bit of lithium that supports the cost. Yes, I think this idea is worth considering. It may be necessary to do a little more research than I can do. because it seems that there is a possibility that both industries will be supported at the same time. We want to deposit $ 1.8 billion of Amazon here. We also need employment to do so, but is it necessary to evaporate the water of Crossco for that? What if it is possible? There is a possibility that two industries can make a good point. By helping them contribute to the issue of waste treatment of the oil industry, we can help them solve the problem of earthquakes. Why? What is happening now? Water flows underground, It's like a purification agent. Even if it doesn't cause a lot of damage, it will cause a little shaking. There is no need for that anywhere. In the near future, there will be restrictions on it. The Louisiana Department of Environment is trying to restrict their actions any further. Please think about the vacuum truck that is coming to you without a reason. You don't have to do that anymore. It also prevents the pollution of the 20th Line and Greenwood Road. You just have to send it by pipeline. Shreveport City will have the right to pass through the pipeline. It will be franchised. Even if there is a leak from the pipeline, the city is not responsible for the franchise. In addition, the city will make a profit. I want you to know that there is a possibility that profit will be generated in that transportation. Someone should want to do it in that process. Do you understand the meaning? What I'm looking for is just to consider the possibility of realization. I think it will work.

40:45Speaker 1

Perry-san, I'm sorry, but I'm out of time. I understand.

40:48Speaker 4

Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

40:51 – 41:05Speaker 1

Chairman, that's all for the public comment. Justin Rickson-san. Green-san, Justin Rickson-san came to talk about the Libby Glass case. I understand.

41:09 – 43:58Speaker 4

Mr. Rickson, thank you for coming. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule. I would like to ask you about the current situation of Liberty Glass. I saw that the demolition equipment was placed. I think the work has begun. So I would like you to tell me the latest situation. Many people have been asking questions, and I thought you would answer them all. I don't know if I can answer all of them, but I wonder if I can answer some of them. Thank you, Chairman. Thank you for inviting all the members of the committee. I am the president and CEO of North Louisiana Economic Partnership, Justin Dickson. About two or three years ago, we went to Baton Rouge, Please remember that I was trying to get a budget to help the citizens. When I came here, my career was industrial development and redevelopment, but I took advantage of the opportunity to waste the land of the Libby Glass Factory. There was industrial welding equipment such as industrial water, electricity, drainage, gas, rail, and exit, but there was no employment there. So we worked with the council and the governor, purchased facilities, purified them, and asked for funds to be used as commercial facilities. We were able to realize this with the help of the financial authorities and other related organizations. We are currently proceeding with the work. We have made large-scale imports. I asked the owner of Wee Land Construction for a loan. I received a loan from 12 companies for demolition construction. The Neighbors company has been doing a lot of work, such as the old baseball field and the downtown mall that is scheduled to open in this area, and the Chick-fil-A that everyone is talking about. In any case, they took the lead in improving the environmental problems that existed there. It is almost complete. We are planning to complete the environmental purification work within the next month. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. We are waiting for the initial approval from DEEQ. As soon as the notification of purification from the state arrives, we will immediately start marketing. So far, there is nothing particularly surprising. Yes, we are moving forward without any problems. We are taking care of the neighbors and working on it. There was a message from a neighbor saying, I want you to clean up a little. I responded immediately. In fact, after that, he received a phone call, cleaned it up, and thanked me for keeping his promise. This is all part of the process. At the moment, it is very smooth, and in the near future, we will gather attention through marketing, Thank you very much. Do you have any questions? Thank you very much. I have another question.

43:58Speaker 1

Thank you very much for reporting the latest situation. Can you tell me the situation of SLB? Of course. It's an old GM facility, isn't it? Yes, that's right. It was an empty house for 12 years, wasn't it? Yes, that's right.

44:07 – 45:37Speaker 4

It's the same place. I understand. In fact, about three years ago, I took part in that project. I was admitted to SLB. It is known as Schlumberger, but here we do not do oil and gas business. We are manufacturing equipment for data centers. Currently, we employ 1,500 people in northern Louisiana. About 1,000 of them are full-time. The remaining 500 people are moving to full-time through the normal process. We asked them to make a division of employees. These are good jobs. The annual income is $60,000 to $80,000. As a result of the survey, it was found that 52% of the 1,000 people who are currently working full-time are from Shreveport. I don't know the name or details, but when I look at the list, it is spread to all districts. The most common is not you. It is F district. About 160 people work from the post office of your district. And there are 152 people from your district. There are 63 people in the least number. Yes, quite a few people from all districts are currently working at that factory. They are using the entire factory, and they are currently paying taxes. They haven't paid for a long time before. So we are very happy about that.

45:40Speaker 1

I understand. So, um, I heard you were saying what you were actually doing there.

45:45Speaker 1

What are you actually doing there?

45:48Speaker 4

Yes, we are manufacturing cooling and electrical systems for data centers around the world.

45:53Speaker 1

I see. Thank you very much.

45:54Speaker 4

You're welcome. Yes, thank you very much. Thank you very much.

50:40Speaker 2

I will submit an agreement. For the introduction.

50:48 – 51:52Speaker 1

The agreement of the introduction by Congressman Jackson and the amendment by Vice-Chairman. These proposals have been introduced. Please proceed with the second reading of the initial period, the second reading of the order, and the final resolution. Regulation No. 80. Correct the 2026 budget of the individual waste business fund. There is a correction plan in one place. Please show this correction plan. This correction plan is to adjust the reduction of labor costs in order to reflect the pay raise of workers and employees. It is also possible for the solid waste department to purchase a Knuckle Boom Trailer Unit to support large-scale garbage collection. What is the first part of the correction plan? It is to adjust the reduction of labor costs in order to reflect the pay raise of workers and employees. You need to agree before you enter the discussion.

51:52Speaker 4

I understand.

51:59 – 52:11Speaker 1

I will support the discussion. I will proceed as agreed by Congressman Jackson. I will support and discuss by the chairman. Why do you cut your salary? Start.

52:13 – 52:36Speaker 3

The original order was created before the payment was made. Therefore, it was planned to withdraw $300,000 from the payment and pay the fuel cost. When the payment was carried out, $100,000 was required as the remaining period of payment, so $300,000 of the total amount could not be withdrawn. Therefore, we created a revision plan to reflect the actual required expenses and secure the payment amount. So how much is the payment amount?

52:36Speaker 1

How much is the hourly wage?

52:41 – 53:16Speaker 4

It was announced a few weeks ago. I think it's $21.78. $20. $21.28. Well, $21.78. Yes, that's right. It's $21.78. Excuse me. It's $21.78. How attractive is that? For the people we are targeting, I know the story of $2, but when I talk to a few people, who will be happy with $2? That was the reaction. And what will change with that? I'm saying $21.75 there, but how attractive is that? Excuse me, is Mr. Morgan still there? Mr. Morgan.

53:32 – 53:54Speaker 3

That's right. Until he comes, one of the reasons why we set this standard is to avoid a situation where the driver's salary exceeds the director's salary. In other words, it is the maximum amount that can be raised without disturbing the other salary system, and we intend to deal with it by the end of the year as you know it. However, until that is possible, it means that it is set to the current setting.

54:04 – 54:46Speaker 4

How effective is this in adopting the human resources necessary for work? Since the announcement, we have received many applications. We are actually interviewing many people who are interested in work. Yes, it's going pretty well. As he said, there is a problem with the debt compression, so it was not possible to set it too high. I really wanted to make it higher, but I think I was able to do the maximum that could be provided in the current situation because there were many ups and downs between other employees. Especially internally, the situation seems to be good. There are many applications, and interviews are frequent.

54:46 – 56:45Speaker 1

Therefore, there should be no such thing as returning here again after 90 days. At the moment, we are recruiting drivers for CDL, large licenses, and holders, and we are making sure that we can do operational work. It should not be a situation where the operation in the city cannot be covered due to lack of drivers on Mondays and Tuesdays. What we specifically wanted was a more competitive deposit, not whether it would be implemented. I understand everything about deposit compression. That's why they have an analyst to solve such issues. That's what we were discussing last year. In the end, because we didn't do anything last year, it's a situation like this today. So now we are. The council is criticizing. If something doesn't work out in this city. I understand. Therefore, what we are asking of you and them is that they should move smoothly after 90 days. This should make it possible to move smoothly. As a board of directors, we need to add a little more budget. I also want to say something to my colleagues. You should say something right now. Really. What a thing. This is very important. Because even though we discussed it at the budget meeting, Today, garbage is overflowing on the roads in the G district. There is a lot of garbage left everywhere. So today we need to talk seriously. If the CDO driver doesn't work at 21.75 dollars per hour, we should be honest today. If you need it, you can postpone it, but I'll be honest with you. We're going to get your phone call. We don't manage your department, but we're going to get a call from the chairman's office and we're going to be evacuated. This city is full of garbage right now. Let me tell you one thing. We're not trying to catch up with you.

56:45 – 1:00:13Speaker 4

You're talking to us. We don't manage you. We're not your boss. That's right. We're just approving the budget. The only person who can stand in this parliament and say, this is the place, is Mr. Daniels, but he is no longer there. Because when you have a meeting with your superiors, you are with your superiors. We are not your boss. Many citizens do not even know that the parliament is in charge of the top of each department. The only thing we can manage is the committee staff. That's the limit. We can't give you any orders right now. If I were to say, Hey, Morgan, do this and that and do that, you would say, Okay, you saw me, but I'm not a direct boss, so you don't have to follow what I say. But you're doing that because you have a purpose, and that's why we can talk. If the auditorium is allowed, you may be able to follow the instructions, but you are in a difficult position. Because the people there are your superiors. I also talk to the people who are driving the truck at the site. When I meet them, I say, ah, this is really hard. When will you give me a salary? That's the voice I hear from the drivers who are actually working at the site. I don't know the temperature today, but it's over 100 degrees Celsius and 37 degrees Celsius. Here's a question, for example. Dark-san, how happy would you be if our board of directors offered you $2 as a reward for your work? I did it. Can you say that you can get a lot of $2? What will change with this? How do you do it? Therefore, we propose to postpone until accurate numbers come out. Whoever we satisfy, whoever it is, we are the first to think that it is necessary. We just talked about the value of the data center, right? The mayor also touched on the financial plan. If the funds go in there, the officers of the fire department and other departments should also know that they are watching this meeting. That's right. We say this to the police and the fire department. That's right. What happens to those who are qualified to cooperate with the police? Do you think this meeting is over? No, they have a plan to make money, and it's all going to be fine because the tax rate is going to increase by $20 million. If so, why don't you solve it now so that it won't be a problem again? I can understand what you're saying, and I'm grateful, but I think we should move forward until the situation is completely calm. That is my proposal.

1:00:13Speaker 1

Yes, and that is, please.

1:00:15 – 1:00:38Speaker 4

I don't even know where the number of 21,778 dollars came from. I heard that the amount was raised in the news. When you asked how much the target amount was appropriate for the budget arrangement, there should have been a number called 25. That's right. Didn't you agree with everyone at the time of the budget? In my memory, there was never a discussion about accurate numbers.

1:00:38Speaker 1

Jarvis was asked. What did Jarvis ask? What did he ask? I remember that the number he thought was appropriate was 23 to 25 at the time.

1:00:43Speaker 3

I don't know.

1:00:50 – 1:01:48Speaker 4

I think there are two points that I can agree with Green's opinion. It is a point that needs to be postponed. That's because I thought it was our goal. In fact, I thought it was over by the time I saw KSLA. The mayor said in an interview that the committee's approval was unnecessary and that it would be implemented. The hourly wage is $21.78, and that's not a problem. In other words, they need to be paid, and the garbage collection in my house is also affected, so I don't want to make you wait any longer. It should come on Tuesday. It will be finally recovered on Thursday afternoon. The neighborhood is in such a state. Therefore, there is no doubt that this will be postponed. However, Dark-san, what I want you to do one more thing is that I don't want you to do the truck ticket and the paid ticket together. That's right. Therefore, if possible, let's treat it as a separate case. I don't like to summarize the problem of personnel and equipment into one. Then, I will make an agreement. I will submit an amendment agreement for postponement.

1:01:49Speaker 1

I understand. Yes, Mr. Morgan, I didn't mean to trouble you. No, there is a best bet. I agree with that correction. Yes, Chairman, please wait.

1:01:56 – 1:02:18Speaker 4

Do you have a estimate of how long it will be postponed before it is postponed? Because I don't want to miss the budget that is currently secured. I'm not saying that I can't increase the amount later, but if it turns out to be a problem for Mr. Jarvis now, I don't want to ignore the budget that has been secured, so I want to talk to you about when you can come back.

1:02:18 – 1:03:12Speaker 1

About that, it was a plan to speak to the next person, so let me tell her first. I understand. Thank you. Mr. Morgan, I didn't mean to pursue you, but at the time of the budget arrangement, you were the only department head who came to report on the problem. At that point, I thought we were on the way to solving it. We turned our ears. You raised your voice. I learned that all the garbage collection problems should have been implemented at the budget meeting when it first occurred. I don't know why things have turned out like this. Well, it's going to be repeated, but I'm wondering. I would like to extend it, but I agree with Mr. Jackson's opinion. I don't want to delay the security of the CBL driver and cause another problem. Ah, Mr. Chairman, let me finish my remarks with Mr. Jackson.

1:03:14 – 1:04:00Speaker 4

A. Thank you, Chairman. In the end, I'm going to rely on Jarvis's judgment. You know your department better than anyone else, so as I said, what is presented today is real money. I don't know how attractive it is, but I don't know how much information is available about this budget, and I don't know if any applicants are coming to see the content of the news. Tomorrow's news will report that this budget will be reserved, so I'm concerned about how it will affect the recruitment activities. Therefore, today, it is necessary to clarify when to reconsider and how much to extend. However, the media does not mean that the budget will be completely lost, but that it will be considered in the near future, so that there will be no problems in the recruitment activities.

1:04:04Speaker 1

Mr. Dark, do you have anything to say?

1:04:06Speaker 4

You might be able to answer my question.

1:04:27Speaker 3

However, no matter what you do today, the promotion has already been implemented.

1:04:32 – 1:05:45Speaker 4

It's already paid. Yes, but at the last meeting, I proposed $25. You just didn't make it $25. That was my proposal. I can't say it's a decent salary. As one of the members of this committee, I can't do the same job as them by riding a truck for $21.75. ここにいる誰一人としてね はっきり言えば誰一人として無理です だからこの21.75ドルを Please don't call it a decent salary. I know it's already decided, but I think it's very unfair, and it should be compensated in the same way as everything else. The other day, it was too hot, so I gave my workers a Gatorade. The temperature was 110 degrees below zero, and when I turned around behind the truck, I was about to vomit. Yeah, so I thought it wasn't very good for me. Is this okay? This is not a decent amount. Please don't tell your subordinates that I said this was a decent amount. これは十分な額ではないんです。修正が必要です。それも早急にね。それが私たちのやるべきことです。 これが議会にとっても、そして地域社会にとっても重要な課題であることは承知しています。 ですから、皆さんには少し落ち着いていただきたいのです。 わかりました。えーと。

1:06:04 – 1:08:33Speaker 1

Mr. Morgan, this is my concern. They have already done what they should do about that matter. It's like sending a different sign to me. Because your purpose is not to go to the scene and listen to the story. At the time of the budget arrangement, Dark, we emphasized that range and goal and discussed it, right? If it is necessary to replay for the record, let's do so. I knew it would be a problem, so I'll say it again. If the garbage is not collected and the toilet is not flushed, Shreveport City will have a problem. Garbage is not collected. We will see what will happen in the next 90 days. I will say it again. Whether we will gather here again or not, I do not say that you, the department head, should grasp everything. Therefore, I can roughly imagine what you wanted. Yes. However, when I ask them about the progress of this city and where they are getting their funds from, I understand that public safety is important, but now the citizens are also struggling with the issue of garbage. Therefore, we must look at everything in a comprehensive way. It is not a situation where we can only look at one thing. To sum up, we are seeing that garbage is scattered all over the neighborhood. We are a community of us who are in a state of emergency, and we need to have people respond properly. So we are trying to assess this and see what kind of effect it has. I don't care what the media says. We are responding in real time, so there is a problem in reality. This is only a 30-second segment. We are talking about reality. Therefore, it is not only up to the demand in this budget period. It is important what you are looking at. We have the right to ask questions that we sometimes don't like. To you. About the right not to collect garbage, Mr. Song, let's increase the truck for the nine of us and add $ 2.75. Let's see what happens to our budget.

1:08:33Speaker 4

Whether it will be recovered or not, the answer is no.

1:08:39 – 1:08:56Speaker 1

Vice Chairman Thank you Mr. Morgan Well, when I talked to Dark about two weeks ago, he said that he would hire a company to recover the remaining damage after the storm. How is the progress? Did you talk to everyone?

1:08:56Speaker 4

Yes, we discussed it at the conference of the Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-Infra-

1:09:18 – 1:09:33Speaker 1

Then, regarding the amendment, Mr. Berghain, considering that the appeal has already been implemented, there is no doubt that you want to cut off the track and submit a bill. That's right. I think that the implementation of the budget can be reserved until the next council meeting.

1:09:33Speaker 4

However, when submitting the next time, I would like the track to be handled as a separate case. I think that the equipment and human resources should be divided. I understand.

1:09:49Speaker 1

Then, the amendment has been approved.

1:09:51 – 1:10:07Speaker 4

Chairman, as Congressman Jackson said to the media, I want to make it clear that the appeal has already been implemented. No one's salary has been suspended. Just a little more. I see. I want to make it clear that it will never fall into the same situation again. I understand. I will move on to the resumption of the amendment.

1:10:17 – 1:11:06Speaker 4

もし仮に2175と25の違いについて議論するために戻ることになった場合、 How should it be discussed? Is it a financial committee? Or is it clearly a project that should be dug deeper? There will be a need to consider it deeply. Considering that we have not used the committee properly so far. That's right. To be honest, it has never happened before. The議題 suddenly came out and it was processed as it was. I don't think we need to rely on the committee. You should be able to discuss here. You just need to come up with an amendment. At the next meeting, Today, we discussed quite difficult content at the infrastructure meeting, and about the collection of garbage, but how many people actually heard the content of the discussion. At the meeting just before.

1:11:06Speaker 2

At the meeting just before.

1:11:07 – 1:11:26Speaker 4

I haven't tried to use the committee properly for 8 years in the parliament. That may be a problem from next time. Therefore, you should be able to do anything you need until the next meeting. I understand. Let's vote.

1:11:26Speaker 1

So, shall we reaffirm the agreement between Congressman Jackson and Congressman Butcher?

1:11:34Speaker 4

Yes, understood. My agreement is a general agreement for postponement.

1:11:39Speaker 1

I made an agreement.

1:11:40 – 1:12:06Speaker 4

Yes, I made an agreement. I think Alan agreed. And one more thing, when re-consulting this, do you need to continue the Knuckle Boom again? Will it take another two weeks? Two weeks. It seems to be treated as another order. Yes, that's right. That's a problem. He said he was ready, so it should be necessary. Isn't that right, Mr. Jarvis? Let's discuss that later. First of all, let's postpone everything. I understand.

1:12:06 – 1:12:58Speaker 1

Mr. Jackson. Yes. I agree to postpone it by 6 votes. Well then. Edward is a lawyer. This bill is summarized in one piece, but he needs a knuckle boomer, and there is also a phenomenon. What should I do? Should I do something? Do you need to wait for the second bill? Yes, that's right. Unless another amendment is issued, I see. To withdraw.

1:13:09 – 1:17:12Speaker 4

The only part that is related to the Knuckle Boom car will be left. I want to do that. That's a good idea. I'm sorry. I want to do that. Please say it again. Please say yay. In other words, do you mean to delete the main part of the order and leave only the correction plan 1? Is that so? It's the part about the knuckle boom truck in the correction plan 1. Part of the correction plan 1 and part of the problem are at the end of the fund year. It is a concern to replace the butcher committee human resources and equipment costs. It was scheduled to be converted from human resources to equipment costs. Therefore, we are currently reducing the cost of converting human resources from human resources to equipment costs. It is a form of compensation. Therefore, this is not a matter of a simple correction plan 1. Well, it will be a correction plan that will rewrite the whole thing. Chairman Yes I understand. Lawyer, when there was a big storm before, I asked the business to pay for it, but there was still a fee. I think it was over $ 1,000,000, but we implemented it and came up with a revision plan to organize it later. Was that a once-in-a-lifetime reorganization plan? Or can you put it out again? Or is that the end? I've done it before, so if I could do it before, I should be able to do it this time as well. You put out a reorganization plan, didn't you? I think it was based on an emergency. This is also an emergency. That was based on an emergency that was declared, wasn't it? Therefore, it was recognized as a pre-execution and post-execution. That's right. So who declared an emergency? I remember that the mayor declared it. Don't I ask him to declare an emergency? That's not what I think. I can't say this is an emergency. What did you say about an emergency? It's my opinion. In my opinion, this is not something that corresponds to the regulations. Is that so? There is a law regarding the emergency situation of public health and public health safety, but this is a law, and the authority to judge whether there is a danger to the safety of health and public health is entrusted to the government. It is a danger to the health and public safety. That's right. If you check the record, you can see that it was a few months after the storm. It wasn't during the storm. I think that the declaration was already made during the storm or just after that. After the work was completed, its output exceeded the standard value of the committee's authority. Therefore, as you pointed out, a number of months after the declaration was issued, the contract that has not passed a public emergency declaration and a public import of more than $ 1 million was approved by the committee to allow both of the requirements of the committee to be approved. This time it is not such a situation, but there was a scenario like this before. You were the chairman at the time, and while I was rewriting the amendment, you were asked to take a five-minute break without instructions, and in the meantime I rewrote the amendment and submitted it to the council so that everyone could vote. That's why I'm paying you a high salary. Let's do it.

1:17:12 – 1:17:50Speaker 1

Then the chairman made a decision. Excuse me, I was a little excited. Yeah, that's right. I remembered the old days. So, lawyer Edwards, you can make a correction plan, right? If there is a request, I will give you 7 minutes. For that work, I will take 7 minutes. In order to maintain the productivity of the employees of this specific revision plan, we will ensure that the necessary trucks are definitely ordered, and we will ensure that the cleaning is thorough so that it does not fall into an emergency situation related to garbage.

1:17:50Speaker 4

Yes, I understand.

1:17:52 – 1:18:22Speaker 4

Do you have any concerns about the issuance of the purchase funds for this truck? That's because I think that's the cause of the misunderstanding. So please explain before you make a correction plan. You will need to ask Tom Durst where to issue the funds. I don't want you to rewrite the plan that we can't agree with. A. I will guarantee that the amendment I was trying to make was intended to start with consulting with the start-up company.

1:18:22Speaker 1

And I will make it according to the outline of the necessary information you mentioned at the infrastructure meeting held early today. Chair. Yes. The vote should have already passed. Yes.

1:18:29 – 1:18:41Speaker 4

That means we need a consent to request re-election. I made a consent, so I need to do it. It is not necessary now. You don't need it until you can vote. That's right.

1:18:49Speaker 2

I'd like to take a break. I need a break.

1:18:53 – 1:19:22Speaker 4

Yes, while you're working, can you proceed with the rest of the stage? If you don't finish, can you take a break at that point? I don't mind. Is it okay to submit an agreement at that point? As long as the meeting does not close, it is possible to submit a re-election agreement. About this matter. That's right. That's right. I understand. Then, please tell us what to do. If you want to proceed with the議題 first, you can proceed as it is. After that, the re-election agreement will be...

1:19:24Speaker 3

That's right.

1:19:25 – 1:19:40Speaker 4

I will have a short break and have time to talk to Dark-san. After that, let's create a draft and proceed from there. Do you need to give a re-election agreement right now? No, I don't need it. I understand. I think it can be done at the end of the meeting. It depends on how far the議題 will go in the future, but I will tell you what I'm going to do from now on.

1:19:40 – 1:20:18Speaker 3

I'm going to send Edwars-san a correction proposal by e-mail and see if it will work. I will try to prepare what you can collect by the time the meeting is over. In the end, if there is no problem, there is a way to say that the payment to the pre-filled business and the income from the pre-filled business as part of the correction plan will be covered by the annual income. The difference can be estimated at $200,000. For the Knuckle Boom, we will consider whether they can pay the gasoline bill they need for the Knuckle Boom.

1:20:24 – 1:20:58Speaker 4

I will adjust it a little while you are cleaning. It depends on how much involvement is needed in the next議題, but let's see how fast it will go. Anyway, I'll try to do what I can. Chairman, please let me comment on just one more thing. Well, if we had a planned meeting before this meeting, it wouldn't have been in a situation like this. This time it was a joint meeting, so there was no opportunity to confirm many points. Yes, we haven't shared that amendment until today. Let's move on to the next議題. I understand.

1:21:23 – 1:21:35Speaker 1

This is the revision of the Regulation No. 81, Water in the Year 2026, and the budget for the soil business fund. Chairman, yes. Please raise it to the議題 first.

1:21:35 – 1:22:05Speaker 4

This was postponed. Yes, I will resume last time. The reason for the postponement is ... No, it's wrong. I understand. In order to make the question possible. Who's the reason? It's me. The reason for the postponement of Congressman Jackson and the resumption of Congressman Barr. The reason for the postponement of the debate last time was ... because it was the content that replaced the human resources cost with the equipment cost. I can't help but ask DART-san, but DART-san, is that a mistake?

1:22:06 – 1:22:38Speaker 3

Certainly, the question at that time was about the number of CDL, large-scale licenses, and holders of the upper and lower waterways, right? Yes, that's right. We discussed it with Brandon. He gave me a list of CDL holders. There was no one with the same job as an operator or a collector. Most of them are directors. Even if they have a license, they don't drive as drivers every day. They are all paid more than the standard amount discussed. I see. So it doesn't affect the retention rate, does it?

1:22:54Speaker 4

It's a postponement agreement, isn't it? No, I won't postpone it. Let's take both at the same time.

1:23:06Speaker 1

Then, will you issue a postponement agreement? Yes.

1:23:10Speaker 4

Yes. I will reschedule it.

1:23:15 – 1:23:58Speaker 1

I will postpone it at the rescheduling of Jackson's agreement by Green. The discussion is over and the discussion is resumed. I agree. The suspension was terminated at 6 to 0. This is a revision of the Act No. 83, the Divergent Special Revenue Fund of the year 2026.

1:23:58Speaker 4

Disagreement resumed.

1:24:00 – 1:24:48Speaker 1

Disagreement of Congressman Jackson and Congressman Barr resumed. Is there any discussion? Resolved. It was resolved in 6-0. This is a revision of the Act No. 84, the Public Safety Special Re-entry Fund. I agree. I will resume. This is a resumption of the agreement of the Butcher議員 and the Jackson議員. Mr. Dart, where do you transfer the budget? This is the unsubstantiated case of No.

1:24:48 – 1:25:08Speaker 4

83, which was resolved earlier. Divergent transfers funds to public safety, so this is a confirmation of its acceptance. In addition, it reflects that the Blue Line revenue was less than the budget. Therefore, some of the distribution to other funds will decrease by the same percentage. Are there any other questions?

1:25:08 – 1:25:39Speaker 1

Let's resume. was passed with 6 votes in favor. Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85 Regulation No. 85

1:25:49 – 1:26:11Speaker 3

The only thing they say about all four of these is that they will confirm the re-entry fee at the end of the year. If it is different from the budget, in some cases, they will adjust the distribution of this year based on the revenue that is currently coming in. None of these funds are in use anywhere. However, if there is a 5% difference, it is necessary to correct the budget.

1:26:17Speaker 2

Well, it should have contained a re-entry report of almost all districts in the re-entry report that I received. I couldn't find anything in District A.

1:26:28 – 1:26:39Speaker 4

In fact, I think it was sent in a separate e-mail before. However, the report should have been submitted to the initial report that Mr. Power sent at the end of the week. Would you like to collect it? Of course.

1:26:39Speaker 1

It's an e-mail, isn't it?

1:26:40 – 1:26:59Speaker 3

The biggest difference is that the balance of interest at the end of the year is not a smaller number than we recognized, $164,000. That's right. In other words, it's not a low figure in the budget, but it's going to be divided by $194,000 or more. Thank you very much. Let's re-evaluate. 6 votes were approved and re-evaluated. 5 to 1, 1 person is against.

1:27:22Speaker 1

Regulation No. 86 Reconstructing the fiscal year-end budget of the F Special Income Fund for Economic Development District. I agree.

1:27:30 – 1:28:39Speaker 1

The Green Committee agreed, and the Vice-Chairman agreed. Is there any discussion? Let's resume. Taylor. Chair. Yes. The vote was approved. Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 87 Regulation No. 88 Regulation No. 88 Regulation No. 88 Regulation No. 88 The Vice Chairman agreed, and the Green Committee re-agreed. Please discuss. Darcy, please explain the difference between the east and the west for the sake of the meeting.

1:28:39Speaker 4

Excuse me, I was trying to do two things at once. I'm sorry. It's a medical technology innovation district, isn't it?

1:28:44Speaker 2

Well, these are two districts in the medical area.

1:28:46Speaker 3

The east side mainly includes Asher, LSU, and Schleiners, and the west side is a single campground. It will be repeated, but we have the same response to them, and we recognize the revenue that exists there.

1:29:00Speaker 1

It is to let the viewers and the general public know the difference. Let's resolve it.

1:29:04Speaker 2

It is resolved with 5 votes.

1:29:11Speaker 1

This is a revision of the Act No. 89, the Community Development Special Re-entry Fund for the Year 2026.

1:29:21Speaker 4

I agree with Congressman Jackson.

1:29:24 – 1:30:02Speaker 1

It is a re-appointment by the Deputy Chairman. Is there any discussion? Let's reschedule. Rescheduling in 6 seconds. This is a revision of the Regulation No. 90, the Reef Riverfront Development Special Re-entry Fund. I agree. The chairman has agreed, and the vice-chairman has agreed. Please discuss. Let's proceed from this fund, Dart-san. I understand.

1:30:09 – 1:30:28Speaker 3

The reason why the riverfront is shrinking is that the activity of the game business is stagnant and the balance sheet is slightly different from the budget. That's why we're trying to adjust. The main response is to reduce the reserve fee and to reduce the amount of money to be paid to the general public from the riverfront. It is just trying to maintain the balance of interest.

1:30:36Speaker 1

Are you planning to raise taxes and allowances regarding this基金残高? No, not at all.

1:30:41Speaker 4

This is only about the riverfront. What I want to say is about the基金残高 of these specific基金.

1:30:45 – 1:30:58Speaker 2

What is going on with our基金残高? We can see the situation that is decreasing now. That's right. Or... We are talking about the基金残高 of the riverfront. Yes, I understand that part.

1:30:58Speaker 3

Please wait a moment. I will try to look at both places at the same time. I think so. It's okay.

1:31:03Speaker 1

I'll be back later.

1:31:04 – 1:32:27Speaker 3

The balance of the riverfront was estimated at a budget of $ 1 million today, but it is actually just $ 1 million. That's right. So what we were trying to do was to recognize the uncertainty of the sale of Thames Town by Bales and the decline of the entire market. We are trying to adjust the budget to the revenue expected this year. And since the revenue is much less than expected, the quality is also reduced. The only place where the quality is reduced is actually the deposit to the general account. So, have you talked about the future plans of Bales? Are they planning to enter land-based gaming? Did you, or the government, set up a meeting with the GM and president of this company? The future plan for the development of the riverfront is extremely important, so you need to keep that in mind. That is one of our largest employers, so I think there should be discussion. From a budget perspective alone, it takes time to implement everything. Considering the fact that we are currently running two casinos, it is unclear whether we can maintain the profits of Thames Town for a short period of time. Therefore, we are trying to be careful. I understand that point.

1:32:27Speaker 1

However, I know that discussions are being held.

1:32:30Speaker 3

It is not certain who is talking to each other, but many people have ideas about their plans. However, that does not mean that it will start immediately tomorrow. That is the most important point. No, it's not. That's not what I'm listening to.

1:32:47 – 1:33:12Speaker 1

Some casinos are buying other casinos, and the buying process should be almost complete. Just like the site of the data center Yuchi, did the government side have a discussion with the GM, chairman, or chairman of the other side about the plan at Shreveport? This is a serious case. I can't do it.

1:33:12Speaker 4

Let's get back to the casino area.

1:33:14 – 1:34:17Speaker 1

You may not like casinos, but they still exist. If you think about tourism and the profits it brings, it is essential for them to compete with what they are planning on the riverfront. We have not yet held that competition. Thank you very much. Then, let's resume. It was resolved in 6 votes. This is an issue that will correct the budget for the 2026 fiscal year of the City Planning Committee's Special Profit Fund. I agree. I disagree. It was established by the agreement of Congressman Jackson, the vice chairman. Is there any discussion? I will vote. The system is rotating. So, Mr. Taylor is in favor. Mr. Brooks is in favor.

1:34:17Speaker 4

Mr. Taylor is in favor.

1:34:18Speaker 1

Mr. Butcher is in favor.

1:34:20Speaker 4

Mr. Jackson is in favor. Mr. Green is in favor.

1:34:24 – 1:35:05Speaker 1

And Mr. Bowman is in favor. Act No. 92 is to correct the budget for the general economy in 2026. I agree. I disagree. Is there a discussion? I will move on to the resolution. Mr. Taylor. At this point, I would like to say no. I cannot agree until I can confirm how the remaining funds will be used. Mr. Brooks. Mr. Tereiro. I agree. It's the opposite. It's the opposite.

1:35:06Speaker 4

It's the opposite.

1:35:07Speaker 1

It's the opposite.

1:35:08Speaker 4

It's the opposite.

1:35:09 – 1:35:24Speaker 1

It's the opposite. It's the opposite. It's the opposite. It's the opposite. It's the opposite. It's the opposite.

1:35:27Speaker 2

It's the opposite. It's the opposite.

1:35:30Speaker 4

1:35:35Speaker 1

1:37:25Speaker 4

I have prepared a correction proposal for the chairman.

1:37:28Speaker 3

Shall I send it to you by e-mail? Is that person helpful? Yes. I understand.

1:37:32Speaker 1

I rely on giving what the lawyer needs.

1:37:34Speaker 3

I understand. I understand.

1:37:36 – 1:38:01Speaker 1

Then, let's take a 10-minute break from this meeting. Do you have anything to order? We will resume the short meeting of the Board of Directors. Mr. Butcher.

1:38:01Speaker 4

I would like to agree with the re-election of the 80th resolution. It is a re-election of the re-election.

1:38:06 – 1:38:38Speaker 1

It is the best. Mr. Jackson is the best. Is there any discussion? Let's vote. It is a draw with 6 votes. A and Dartmoor-san. I need another agreement.

1:38:39Speaker 4

You need to agree to the amendment 2. Yes, I understand. I said I would follow you. Yes, I understand. Then I agree to amendment 2. The best.

1:38:49 – 1:39:26Speaker 1

Mr. Jackson agreed to amendment 2, and Mr. Butcher agreed to amendment 2. Is there any discussion? Shall we read it out for the record? Here you go, please. This is the second amendment to Act 80. This is the second amendment to Act 80. This is the second amendment to Act 80. This is the second amendment to Act 80. We will continue to allocate funds to other items that were included in the original revision plan. That's fine. Is there any other discussion? Let's resume. Jaxon from the committee.

1:39:26Speaker 4

Then we need to make a consensus. We will make a consensus on the revised Act No. 80.

1:39:36Speaker 1

I agree with that. I agree with that.

1:39:38Speaker 4

I agree with that.

1:39:39Speaker 1

I agree with that. I agree with that. I agree with that. I agree with that.

1:39:49Speaker 4

Is Mr. Morgan still here? He is. He is sitting behind the pillar. When a new ambulance came, we were able to see it. I want you to bring that vehicle here. On the road.

1:39:58Speaker 1

Mr. Jackson, I want you to go to the parking lot, but please go to the torii. Let's stop in front of the Gijido in the next meeting.

1:40:06Speaker 4

Yes, I don't think it will arrive so soon. Please put it in the torii. Yes, I understand.

1:40:14 – 1:40:25Speaker 1
