Thank you, Mahapur Mahudaya. Tonight, we will pray from Bhajan Sanhita 122. Anand Daud's one song about going to the Lord's abode. When he said to me, we are going to the Lord's abode. Our feet are standing inside your door, Hey Freeport. Freeport is a city that has been built together to thank the people for the name of the Lord. For the testimony of Israel, the people of the Lord go there because the throne is established for justice. The throne of the house of David. Let's pray for the peace of Freeport, who loves you. May there be peace within your walls. May there be prosperity in your palaces. For the sake of my brothers and companions, I will say that there should be peace within you, Freeport. Because of the presence of our Lord, we wish you well. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Item number 19 is for Agenda. Although item number 19 is not ready yet, so it will be removed.

2:38 – 3:57Speaker 11

Yes, I would like to remove items number 7, 8 and 9. We have an order on this matter. It says that the zoning administrator should be a member of the city. Andrea Weiner is not an employee. Forgive me, I am a city worker. And we have this constitution for one reason. And it is not right that whenever you want to do something different from what is said in the constitution, you do something like this in a hurry. You follow the rules. You break the rules. You break the rules. You change them as per your wish. So that you can fulfill your demands in 8 and 9. And this is not at all appropriate. We have an order for one reason. And this order says that the zone administrator should be the city's employee. Again, Andrea Vinter is not the city's employee. And I am asking that at this time, 7, 8 and 9 should be removed.

6:19 – 9:23Speaker 9

William Barkasco, Illinois, Rajime Stevenson County, Freeport City. And for him, the position of District Chief has been terminated on August 15, 2026, until his successor is terminated and not eligible. Until then, according to the laws and regulations of the city, they are fully authorized and authorized to handle and eliminate all the duties of their office. And according to the orders of the Board of Police and Fire Department, it is necessary to respect all the duties of all the people. Congratulations! Bill was put to work in 2007. In 2018, he became a paramedic and a lieutenant. He is a member of the county VIP hazmat team. He is also a senior officer of the company. He lives in Freeport with his wife Tiffany and children Anthony, Evelyn and Emerson. Lieutenant. Lieutenant Chad Schubert was appointed as a Lieutenant on 15th August, 2026 in Freeport and Stevenson Counties and Illinois. Until then, according to the laws and regulations of the city, all the duties of the department are to be taken care of and eliminated. And according to the orders of the Board of Police and Fire Department, it is necessary to respect all the duties of the department. Chaat was hired in the report fire department in 2009. His father, an uncle, and an uncle's brother have inherited him. He has served in all departments. He was a mechanic and paramedic in the department for many years.

9:30 – 9:59Speaker 16

10:34Speaker 13

Okay, let's move on to item number 4, which is Sarvajanik Tipni. Mr. Clerk, you have to read one.

10:39 – 12:20Speaker 12

This was obtained from Shane Orlow. An elderly person, an employee and a co-worker of the city. My Tipni agenda is for item number 24. I would like to ask you to vote for improvement in Meadowbrook Lane. As residents of Wald and Meadowbrook, we have seen many improvements in the city. The most important areas around us are improving in the Okil and Hillrush areas, and now they are improving in Deer Street and now they are improving in Deer Street. Our street is a quiet neighborhood where there are members and civil servants of many dedicated communities. We spend our lives giving back to the community and seeing this is very good news that it will possibly improve the situation of our lives. Most of you have driven on the roads of this city, like I have driven. Meadowbrook is a different time. It is a road that lives in the century. I can't live without seeing that their half-dazzling road in Mario Kart looks like Indra Dhanush's road in the comparison of Indra Dhanush's road in Mario Kart. This is like the course of the Nintendo Dot Bike video game based on the 80s. This is bad. If we leave the comparison, we need to do this work in many ways. I can't even imagine how much work needs to be done for the water supply in the city. However, this should be done. We will have to take our roads from the 80s to the 2000s. In this area, the improvement of roads and roads will improve the living conditions of the people. And most importantly, those people will be empowered who devote their time to their communities and cities. And lastly, on item number 1, we have Shantae Bradford.

12:47 – 13:00Speaker 13

I am here to specially thank the Merman department. Last time when I came in front of you, I was worried about the 200 blocks of Broadway Street, where they were flying up and down the road.

13:00Speaker 12

But after that, I got parking for the homeless and a stop sign was also put on the corner. Four stop signs on Oakton Broadway.

13:15Speaker 13

That is why I am here to thank you for your hard work and honesty because this order was in the office since 2022.

13:25Speaker 12

But no one signed it. But it is the glory of God that we got the sign. That is why I am here to express my gratitude to all those people and thank them who were involved in this.

13:34Speaker 13

Mahapod, we have never come to make a fuss.

13:38Speaker 12

Do you want to say thank you? Thank you to my cousin, Wendy Pearson, who had a hand in this with the city administrator. Do you also want to say thank you? I just want to say that you are welcome.

13:48Speaker 13

Thank you again. Thank you.

13:50 – 15:29Speaker 15

We will move on to item number 5, which is the consent agenda. These items are included in the consent agenda.

15:30 – 15:43Speaker 12

Claim. Johnson, aye. Parker, aye. Stacey, schedule, aye. Sanders, no. And search, aye. Proposal is passed from 5 to 2.

15:46Speaker 15

And item number 6, 2026 Girish Mikaali and Vachankeet.

15:56 – 24:55Speaker 12

Shubh Sandhya. Shubh Sandhya. Thank you, Madam Mayor. Kurt just told me that we don't have a projector tonight, so you won't be able to see all the interesting pictures of the summers, but that's okay. I can talk about it. This year, our summer studies were about finding out about a story in the library. So, there were a lot of dinosaurs, a lot of geological science, things like that were going on. So, for the part of summer studies, our Grishma Kaleen's program included 487 children starting from the 6th grade. And out of those 407, 251 actually completed the program and reached the goal of their study, which is 51.5% which is actually a very good percentage. I am very happy to be more than 50%. So it was really good. And in our Grishmakali program, 8.63 people ran away. Kids, old people, Kishore, Joe. 8.63 people from last year. But I also think that in 9 weeks, having 8,000 people in the library is a very large number. And it can be divided into three different types of activities. So in the library, we do some activities that are in-house, in which 4,626 people are included. Our outreach programs, where we go to different places to do programming, I had not seen that 113 people are included. And passive programming, which is a program that is going to happen in the library, but we do not do them directly, like our scavenger hunt. And we have a sticker wall where we can stick the sticker. In those programs, 22-24 children were included. And actually, in a month, we did more than 1000 scavenger hunts, which was like my goal, my unwritten goal. And they love scavenger hunting. You just have to give them a sheet and tell them that they need one. And they will keep on scavenging all day. And our program has been stable from last year to this year. This year, it rained in the morning of the initial party. And there was a lot of rain in the afternoon too. I don't know if it rained or not. That's why we organized the program inside. But no one was more excited than this. On that day, there were 330 children. There was something in the library. There was also something in the meeting room. There was also something in the youth service department. There was a dinosaur egg-eating program in our small workshop and it was put in the freezer. So that day was very good. In the summer, in Debate Square, our story program is popular between 30 to 50 children every week. Slime is still one of our most popular programs. This is actually our most popular program. This year, we organized three slimes in summers and a total of 337 children came. The biggest event was of 153, which was in June, which was the next day of the starting party. So it's like everyone comes on Monday, everyone comes on Tuesday. It was really a great week. We made coloring slime that day. They liked it very much. Make it Monday is one of our regular activities, which we do every week. And they come to make many types of craft projects. We made models like dinosaurs and birds. We made puzzles with puzzles. And small children could also paint puzzles. Because it was very easy for them. We made ornaments of wild animals. And we made many things which they could also make. And they could take it home with them. Every year we craft on the 4th day of July and this year we did all the preparations because it was the 250th anniversary of America and we made special hats for them for the sand art festival. We also kept cookies because cookies are needed for a good party. And that afternoon, we had 25 kids come with us to craft and they had a lot of fun. And if there is a picture that I want you to see, it is of the insect race. Because the insect race is very fun. I didn't know what to expect. I thought maybe I will get 20 or 30 children and this will be very good. Oh, I got 63 children. And that's why the worm race is exactly the same as it is heard. We made a mark on a piece of poster board and then they had to put the race. We started them from the middle and they had to race till the outer circle. We learned a lot about how worms like to roam and if they want to walk fast, they don't like to stay in the mud. And if you spray on them, they will move very fast and this increased the speed of the race. So they really spent a very good time and the last four worms raced against each other and decided on the last champion. And the worms living on the top got a big bag of the missing worm. So the kids were very excited. And after the race, we all ate the sweets of the soil. You know, the pudding with oreo and gummy worms, which they also liked very much. And we also did our Candyland program, our Adumkat Candyland. We did it for the first time in January 2025. But in every summer, we get a different group of people. So we started it again in this summer and during two days, 165 children participated in it. So it was really very good. In this summer, we also had two special participants. He was one of the first T-Rex explorers. He is a biologist. He has been to North Dakota many times. He told us what he did and what he found. In the form of a biologist, he did some brave work and in the end, he found some living things that the children touched. He learned a lot about dinosaurs. He liked it. Our second actor was Jason Colum. He is an actor. And the kids liked him a lot. He does an acting comedy show. That day there were 117 people in the meeting room. Whereas his capacity is of 120 people. We were very close. And during the whole show, the kids were making a lot of noise. Emily said that she could hear his voice for an entire hour in her office. She likes his comedy a lot. It is very suitable for the kids. And yes... They spent a very good time and at the end of the show, they also had to practice balancing peacock feathers. One of our regular outreaches is a mat camp, which is provided by Hopewinds in Stevenson and Cherry's church. And I go there every week to work with the kids. We craft different projects. Every week, about 50 kids come. And we always like to make slime at the end of summers because slime is fun. So Emily went to Vasta last week to make slime with me. She went to help me and she had a lot of fun. That afternoon was really fun. This year we continued our outreach with the Stevenson County fair. And we both made some changes in our work. So our presence increased a lot. So earlier I used to do stories and crafts. But I felt that we don't meet so many people. We should make such a craft. Make something and take it. Like make your craft and then go so that your day in the fair doesn't go to waste. And now the fair had started last year. They proposed a field trip for the local day camp. And then this year they asked if I would like to be a part of their field trip program. And of course I said yes. So we had a lot of new students who were very good. And most of them I know because they are from somewhere else in the mat camp or boys and girls club or community. And in three days, 101 students stayed at my small station. And I stay there for only one hour every day. So it was amazing. And on Friday night, we organized Glow Bingo, which they had made right next to the community tent in a new house, which was very good. It was air-conditioned. It was very good. We were full for a while. We had to bring more table and stuff. And at the end of our summer party, we had two little cheetahs. It was a beautiful day. The weather was fine at the end of the summer party. Once again, we had a dunk tank, so I drowned in it for a while. For some time, we also duped other staff members. They like the dunk tank very much. They like to see us going inside. They like to push us. They like all this very much. We also had a bouncy house and a badha course on which they could play. And yes, if they complete their studies for the summers, they get a coupon for free ice cream from the ice cream truck. So the party is really very good. And I am thinking from now on what we are going to add to it next year. And next year, I'm sure you'll be wondering what our theme will be. Actually, the secret is waiting for you in your library, in which I don't get the opportunity to decorate the dinosaur as much as I want, because that too will be in my favorite slide. This year, we decorated the dinosaur in the library. But we are still very excited about the secrets. We are already planning some very interesting things. So, yes, for your cooperation, thank you.

25:03Speaker 17

Item No. 7. The first statement of Article 2046 of the Act. Please read it.

25:07Speaker 12

In relation to the Zoning Administrator of the Enterprise Zone, the City of Freeport can read the Article 9108 of the Act. Thank you, Mr. Administrator. Thank you, Mani.

25:13 – 26:19Speaker 10

As mentioned, Article 809 of the Act regulates the duties and responsibilities of the City, County, and Zoning Administrator. In the present language, the status is limited to the City, County, Administrator, or Employee. The last time this instruction was updated was in 1955. I don't think that at that time they thought that sponsorship or board sponsorship would be important in our economic development process. Therefore, the proposed instruction that I am keeping in front of you allows the Udhyam Chhetra Samiti to appoint an outsider from Bahumat who is not related to the city or county, which is the city. This makes it easy for a competent administrator to choose a current employee while protecting the current employee. Right to remove, duties, reporting requirements, inspection provisions and so on. The final provisions of Article 809.108 have not been changed. And we recommend extending the working rules and extending this change. Is there any proposal to extend this?

26:19Speaker 15

Let's extend it.

26:20Speaker 10

We have another one.

26:30Speaker 15

We have a proposal by the Elderman Schedule, which has been supported by the Elderman Parker to advance this directive. Discussion on the directive.

26:37Speaker 8

Elderman Parker has proposed to abolish the rules. What is the second one? Second.

26:42 – 26:59Speaker 15

We have a proposal by the Elderman Parker, which has been supported by the Elderman Schedule to abolish the rules. To abolish the rules, 2.5% should be exceeded and there can be no debate on it. Madam Clerk, can you only maintain the position on the prohibition? You can do it, we will come back to the discussion. This is only about the prohibition.

27:00Speaker 12

Cleve. Johnson. Parker.

27:05Speaker 12

Stacey. Shadal, namaste. Sanders.

27:10Speaker 12

And sir. 1, 2, 3, 4. I have 5 positive. Umma, read. Me. Postponed.

27:18Speaker 15

6-2. Okay. So now in front of you, Adhyadesh, Rs. 2000. For Rs. 49, the last post. Elderman Stacey.

27:26Speaker 11

Municipal administrator. What makes anyone worthy?

27:33Speaker 3

And how many members are there in Udhyam Khetra 8? Andrea, do you know that there are 8 members?

27:42Speaker 17

We have a place to speak.

27:47Speaker 15

I will present the candidates in a better way.

28:03 – 28:44Speaker 11

As I said in the beginning of this session, the Constitution says that he will be a city official. I can't help it that it hasn't been updated after P85. Did you say that? Although this was the only one that you forgot because all the others you wanted to change were updated. But we forgot it. And who would have thought that Sicily would get that language in which it is said that you should be a city official. And so if the answer you just gave me that what should be done to make someone a Yogi is true, then why do you also need number 7?

28:44 – 28:57Speaker 3

We are clarifying this in the adhya desh so that I can make Andrea Winters a Supreme Shetra Samanvaig or keep her position.

29:02Speaker 11

So whatever is said in the order, you will do it. What you want to do.

29:06 – 29:22Speaker 15

It is not necessary that Andrea is appointed. This zoning board gives this right that he can appoint someone else other than the city or county employee because in the old record, the mayor is appointed.

29:22Speaker 13

Why is the county appointed?

29:29Speaker 11

Why are you giving your thoughts? We know how you feel and what you want. Why are you giving your thoughts about the vote? Because you said that he was just a city worker and this is not right.

29:38Speaker 15

It says city worker or county worker. City worker or county worker.

29:42Speaker 11

He is not a city worker or county worker. Okay, I will end my matter here. This is Dinesh in front of you, the elder man sir.

29:50Speaker 15

I just want to know if this is the first time that

30:01 – 30:22Speaker 14

Sushree Winters has come for zoning. This is not the first time when he has voted for zoning. I am saying that this has been going on for a long time. Who has been doing this in the past? I think this is my question.

30:22 – 30:33Speaker 15

Do you mean before this? I think he was the chairman. You were the chairman, right? No, we're not asking.

30:34Speaker 12

Did we ask him to come to the microphone?

30:35 – 30:48Speaker 15

Yes, if you want to come to the microphone. Ever since Sajidhari was formed, Sajidhari has run the Enterprise Zone. And before that, do you know who he was?

30:48Speaker 14

Before that, I think he was Ron Kane, who used to be a member of Stevenson County. Before that, I don't know. Thank you very much.

30:59 – 31:10Speaker 12

He was the community and development leader for some time when Shelley Griswold was sitting on that post. He did this for a while. This is also on the instruction.

31:10 – 31:23Speaker 11

The question you are asking, if the name of that person is on the instruction, then what is the name on the instruction? This is not a name.

31:28 – 31:56Speaker 14

The person who was the owner of the zoning, his name is on the constitution. It is against the law or it is not legal to change this constitution so that these different organizations can expand their borders.

31:59Speaker 11

I think that one is LENA and the other is Smart Auto Smart. What?

32:05Speaker 13

This is... Legal.

32:08 – 32:40Speaker 9

So, when the Constitution is read in present times, in the 19th century, it is said that the zoning administrator should be the official of the city or county for the upper area. On the wish of the government, the constitution can be formulated in the constitution. In the present, it is long in front of you that what does the government want to change? Who should be made the zoning administrator? then it is fair to change the constitution.

32:40Speaker 8

The lawyer said that you have already spoken three times. Parishad's wish is still necessary.

32:45 – 32:56Speaker 15

If it is Parishad's wish, then it is fine. Can I do it or not?

32:58Speaker 9

I will ask Cecilia to speak again.

33:30Speaker 15

Yes, it was.

33:32Speaker 15

So, we have a proposal by the elder man claim, which elder man Johnson has given support to evaluate the rules for the third time. Madam clerk, please take your seat.

33:43Speaker 12

Johnson. Aye. Parker.

33:47Speaker 12

Desi. Aye. Sheddle. Sanders.

33:53Speaker 12

And Sayers. Aye. The proposal passed 5-2.

33:59 – 34:18Speaker 11

I would like to say that it was kept in the first meeting of August and it was removed on the request of Mayor Yu. It was removed from the agenda and it was done so that you can come back and cover your deeds. Number 7.

34:29Speaker 13

Okay, I don't know whether to hide my words is the right word or not. Yes, because otherwise it would be wrong. No, we just have to put it inside.

34:36Speaker 17

This is right. We are just trying to do the right thing.

34:42 – 34:55Speaker 11

You are doing the right thing to hide what you want. And I regret, Attorney Zito, that you think you can say this about me. You need to stay alert. You are here for all of us.

35:02 – 36:12Speaker 4

I think there is a lot of difference in our opinion, but I just want to say that I was informed by email a few months ago and I had given it to Rob. That this thing was not going to stop here and it was going to take it forward. For this, there should be someone from the city. Knowing that Rob had started at that time that we need to do something. But I would like to tell you that the person on this post In 1985, he has been the head of the Sajidari Githan. It's not like it's a matter of the past. Okay. So, one person has been on this post for a long time. One more thing that I would like to say is that if you have anything against it, then I will tell you not to talk about it at 6 p.m. I will talk about it when on Friday you will have all the paperwork in which it was told that this is going to happen. I don't know, you know, I had no question about it. It was such a matter that had to be solved in the best way possible. For the record, I picked it up on the third Sunday of June.

36:15Speaker 15

Okay? Okay. Let's move on.

36:18Speaker 14

Not tonight.

36:19Speaker 15

I know this will be my third chance, so I don't need it. No, this was just to give you a blanket for three times.

36:24 – 37:54Speaker 11

I also want to say that I think we went inside because we listened to you and we saw the religion so that we could find out that it should be done properly and in the right way. That's why we went inside to correct it, so that it can be corrected in the books. So that it continues to work like this since 1980. So that it can be corrected in our books and our paperwork. That's why we went inside with the lawyer and with Um and Rob and whoever, so that it can be ensured that the paperwork is correct. And it depends on the constitution what to say. That's why I don't think that they just went inside to do something. Because these two places need to expand their boundaries. That's why they went inside so that they can do this. But it's not like they did something like this to get something. You know, under the table. They wanted to do it in the right way and they wanted to ensure that our paperwork is correct and that the right thing has been said. So I just wanted to say this. It was not that it was done behind the scenes. It was done to correct our paperwork so that it can be done in the right way because it has been done in the same way. This is why it has to be corrected.

37:56Speaker 15

There is no further discussion. Madam Clerk, please take care of the land.

Shubh Sandhya! Since we don't have a projector tonight, I will ask you to take the context of the memo, which is the context from which you will get to know about Bhoogol and where I am talking about it. Two weeks ago, I was talking about the first speech of this address. Again, we are clearing the boundaries of the enterprise zone so that that parcel can be included, At present, the Ato Smart is located in the Poor Visitor Center. It was a seat parcel with the sale of that property and that property, which was sold. For some reason, when the enterprise zone was built, that parcel was not included. The old classic car dealer wants to expand his place instead of his showroom. They want to build another building on that seat parcel. They need an enterprise zone to reduce the cost of that investment to make this project a reality. That's why we are here tonight to have a discussion. Thank you.

39:36 – 39:47Speaker 15

40:20 – 40:52Speaker 6

Similarly, to include the parcel in the zone from the inside of Leena village, we are organizing it in the upper area. This is about 112.3 acres that will be added to the zone. If this old man gets permission, then we will be at a total of about 13.8 square miles. For the sake of the future, we have enough capacity within the zone. We can go up to 20 square miles. So this is today's request. This request has come from Lina village.

40:53Speaker 15

Thank you. Is there any discussion on this order? Madam Clerk, please take care of us.

Clint. Aye. Johnson. Parker. Stacey. Aye. Shedal. Aye. Sanders. And Sir. Adhyadesh passed on 8-0.

41:15Speaker 11

Wait, Johnson.

41:17Speaker 14

Yes, Madam Mayor, I was just thinking, can we extend the rules of 7, 8 and 9? For 7. That was the last one. Can we do it for 7?

41:28Speaker 15

Yes, that is the last one. Was 7 the first word? No, we have extended the rules. Okay, we are fine. We will read from those three. Okay, thank you.

41:36Speaker 13

Item number 10, which is the first word of 2050. You can read it. Thank you, Rin.

41:52 – 44:54Speaker 18

Shubh Sandhya! Oh, this is to remember the discussion that we had in the last few weeks with different council members. That's why we have made an instruction. This does not mean that any resident should be stopped from saying or writing complaints. We just want to do it in the right way. And this work is not for the officials on the roads. This work is for the manager of the city, Ber, and for my other mayor. If someone really has a problem, then they should come to us. And in today's world, we should talk to change. We should talk to change. This is a safe way for our employees and gives them a way out of the conversation. And today it was also discussed that it should not only be limited to the public work staff, but it should reach all the employees of Freeport city. In which the city hall, our fire department, our police department, our police department is also included. I will definitely say that Dayal-Ubanush Abdab is not a part of our daily life and it should be. And I want to make it clear that our employees of the construction department should know that the employees are with them and a process will be adopted for this. This does not give anyone the right to cut someone's phone. When this happens, a process is carried out in the background. It will have a report. It will be recorded in a file. We are thinking about call monitoring in the dispatch of the construction department, so that we have a record of it. Because he always said, he said, as it happens, 90% of them calm down, calm them down and move things forward. And sometimes we have to agree even if we disagree. Let me tell the construction department that money has been spent on their property, not on private property. And we have to pay for it in every situation. We also know that when people come to us, their days are bad. That's why we take it with caution. No one is happy to have a sewer in their basement. That's why we don't expect them to go to their house and celebrate. But we also know that we want everyone to work together and... We have a very good group of people who we want to keep with us. And these people have been made by construction workers. The first step in fulfilling our promise is that we will support them. And we will believe that our workers are making the right decisions. Thank you. Is there any proposal to move this order forward? Move forward. Second.

44:54Speaker 8

Alderman Shetal has put forward a proposal which has been supported by Alderman Sears.

45:00Speaker 15

Discussion on the order. Alderman Stacey.

45:09Speaker 18

Do we want to think about extending this rule? I'll give you a chance to speak optimistically.

45:13Speaker 15

Forgive me. Forgive me.

45:14Speaker 8

Forgive me. I don't know anything. Forgive me. Forgive me a lot.

45:22 – 46:22Speaker 11

Nidesh Shukderi. You know that I don't have any problem with what you said. However, Two weeks ago, we spoke to a young man on whom the dispatcher was accused of cutting the phone twice. And he was convinced that he was with someone else. And nothing like that happened. And nothing like that happened. After that, we talked about my client with whom a very bad behavior was done. And when he found out that she knew him, he changed his mind. That's why we should expect as much from the person who picks up the phone as we expect from the people we are dealing with.

46:45 – 47:30Speaker 18

I was just saying that I fully agree that this should be a matter between the two sides. Do bad days come in someone's life? That's why I was proposing to think about such software or material in next year's budget so that those calls can be recorded. I don't know, but at least the bad call can be recorded so that it is said as it is. Because remember, with email and phone calls, everyone can get something else out of you. It is very difficult to talk to him, especially when I know that the clerk will recognize him. Many times you get a call after a day and people are very worried. This becomes very difficult.

47:31Speaker 4

Okay, no more discussion. I would like to make a proposal to approve the rules.

47:40 – 47:53Speaker 15

We have a proposal by the Elderman Claims which has been supported by the Elderman Parker to extend the rules. There can be no debate on it again. It should be passed on to Siddhoti Ahmed. Madam Clerk, will you play your role on the NILAMMAN? Clip. Namaste. Johnson. Me.

47:53 – 48:07Speaker 12

Parker. Stacey. Shetan. Namaste. Sanders. Sellers. Namaste. And Mahaport. The NILAMMAN proposal has been passed from 6-2.

48:09Speaker 15

Then Parishadis Adhyadesh will take the final decision for 2036. Any other discussion?

48:33 – 49:23Speaker 9

Yes, for now, I'm talking to IT manager Sutman about finding something for next year, but we have to take permission from the attorney that this is something that we can actually do in the form of a city. And I haven't talked to him about it yet. But we are looking for solutions that you know. I don't want it to be what he said or what he said. I think this makes it difficult for people to understand the conversation. And again, I think it would be good if we could use one of those call traps for such matters. But without worrying about whether this happens or not, our staff members have to remember any problem, who was with whom, at what time, etc. That's why we have a record of that documentation. Thank you.

49:28 – 49:52Speaker 11

So if we are recording, if I am the dispatcher and we are recording, then when I pick up the phone and they tell me who they are and when I say, how can I help you? So what will happen? When this goes into hot, can anyone click on the record? No, I think it will be something like this.

49:52Speaker 16

Maybe it will be in a special way.

49:57Speaker 11

That's why you can't say it's a bad call because you don't know.

50:00 – 50:20Speaker 18

No, I'm just saying that it's not a good call. Not a good call. You won't get a good call for every call, right? It will take a lot of time and effort. This will only be the problem. And again, we didn't agree with the attorney. And it seems that we are going to do this. That's why for now, our employees are remembering it with a procedure that we have kept together internally.

50:23Speaker 17

Okay, madam clerk. Please take care of the floor.

50:26 – 51:02Speaker 12

Excuse me. Item number 11, Adhyadesh, 2006. What is his first speech? What did he say? This. Adhya Desh can be read, which is provided by LONIA in 116 South Adams Avenue in Pariser or to drink alcohol outside. It provides a special use permit to allow restaurants, palaces, packaged alcohol shops and any other places.

51:06 – 52:49Speaker 2

Thank you, Mr. Commander. Thank you, Madam. According to the Freeport Zoning Code Section 1252.12.0 BRN01B error, restaurant, tavern, packers, liquor, store and any other place that sell alcohol in or outside the area require a special use permit. This property belongs to Leon, which was previously under the Chicken law. The business has recently opened as a Mexican restaurant. They want to serve alcohol to their guests and attract new people. On August 6, 2026, the Zoning Board of Appeals recommended a five-day vote. On August 13, the Planning Commission recommended a four-vote and zero-vote recommendation. It was basically only at the request of those people who were eating here and requesting for alcohol. That's why they came to us for this special use of the permit so that they can provide their customers with what they are being asked for. And that's why the staff recommended the permission for the special use of the permit for the restaurant selling alcohol at 216 South Adams. And because it is a very small business, I would like to request the regulation to be extended so that they do not have to wait for us. Thank you. Thank you. Is there any proposal to move it forward?

52:49Speaker 15

Then move it forward. Second.

52:50Speaker 13

An application has been placed by the Alderman Shaddle which has been supported by the Alderman Seyes to move it forward. Discussion. Alderman Stacey.

53:00Speaker 11

I am still trying to understand where this place is located. Is it across the FAMIM Bureau?

53:10 – 53:21Speaker 2

Oh no, this is the right pass for O. It's right next to the main street and the spring.

53:21Speaker 13

Is this a small blue and white one? Old German.

53:24Speaker 15

That's the special one. It looks like such a big house.

53:26Speaker 4

Leaf sea breeze. Rally building. Past the sunshine. Old one. Leaf sea breeze.

53:33Speaker 12

Past the sunshine.

53:36Speaker 14

Unfortunately, the projector is closed tonight, otherwise it would have been there. But it is in your memo. There is also a picture of a map and a building.

53:42 – 54:24Speaker 15

The clerk was just saying that it doesn't make any difference to Nilamman because he is not yet in the alcohol agenda for Anmodan. That's why I hope that they will be in September's agenda. Which means that if you want to continue the ruling, then fine. This is on you. It depends on Parishad. He is not a lawyer.

54:26 – 54:39Speaker 9

I don't think that you can give your consent today at night. Because if you search for the ruling of the rules, then you will go straight to the last amendment when you issue a special application. But if you don't have it, they haven't provided their liquor license yet. And do you need a special permit?

54:39Speaker 5

You have a special permit.

54:40 – 54:51Speaker 9

That's why you're saying that we usually have an application before we approve a special permit. Is that what you're trying to say? I think most of the time we do that, but I don't think that something is happening after that.

54:51Speaker 13

I just wanted to make it clear.

54:53Speaker 12

Well done, Mr. C. You can see it on the memo.

54:57Speaker 9

In the picture.

54:57 – 55:21Speaker 11

Ink Sun, 23 South Adams is written. 116 South Adams. Isme 123 likha hai. Kya isme 123 likha hai? Kahan?

55:22 – 55:35Speaker 12

Toh 116 sahi hai. Hai. Madam clerk? Kabhi kabhi jab koi tasweer li jaati hai toh camera camera ki jaga ko hi capture karta hai. Zaroori nahi ki jis jaga ki tasweer li ja rahi hai wo jaga hi capture ho. Kya saur hai?

55:37Speaker 2

That's what I'm saying. Yes, they are taking pictures from the other side of the road. So the camera will take the picture wherever the cameraman is.

55:47Speaker 17

Any other discussion? Okay, then I think we'll move on.

55:51Speaker 15

He took it, but... He took it, but he still doesn't have a liquor license. Parishad has to cancel it. No.

56:04Speaker 13

Then we will move on to item number 12, which is the first sentence of the constitution of 2026. Can you read it?

56:09 – 56:23Speaker 12

The constitution of the city of Phiput is being revised in the Master Downtown Parking Manchitra so that extra ADA parking stalls can be provided along with Van Bain on the west bank of Van Bain, as it has been shown in the revised Master Parking Manchitra. Thank you, Prabandha. Thank you, Mani.

56:28 – 56:51Speaker 10

We have been contacted by the courthouse, Salvation Army, and Prosthetic Centre for adding some parking spaces for the disabled. The map that has been updated is not here, but this Salvation Army building, next to the van, will be on the west bank of the Bind. That is why the employees advise to move this change for other ADA parking spaces.

56:51Speaker 15

Is there any proposal to move it forward? I propose. Second,

56:56Speaker 11

Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson, Johnson

57:21Speaker 13

Let's move on to item number 13, which is to be adopted in 2006. Can you please read it?

57:26Speaker 12

Thank you, Andrea.

57:42 – 58:09Speaker 15

So, this is a joint resolution for consultation in the Intergovernmental Agreement, which is actually consulting in the legal description of the border of the upper area to include the parcel for AutoSmart. Is there any request to be accepted? Move ahead. Second. A request has been made by the Alderman Shetal. A discussion on the resolution supported by the Alderman Sirs. Madam Clerk, please proceed.

58:11Speaker 12

I. Johnson. Parker. Stacey.

58:17Speaker 12

I. Sanders. I. Sellers. I. Sankalp 5-2. Item No. 14. Sankalp 2026-29.

58:26Speaker 13

Can you please read it? Sankalp.

58:39 – 58:56Speaker 6

Thank you Entry Aayut. The same request is with the second statement of the constitution. It is reflecting the legal description of the limit of the industrial area. So that all the parcels can be included within LENA. For which he has requested to keep it in the industrial area. Thank you Aayut. Any proposal to be adopted? Move ahead. Second.

58:56 – 59:08Speaker 15

We have a proposal through the Alderman Seattle, which has been supported by the Alderman Sears. Aayut. Discussion on the idea came. Madam, please proceed.

59:10Speaker 12

Johnson. Parker. Stacey Ait. Shetala. Sanders. Ait. Sellers. Sankalp 5-2 has been adopted.

59:22Speaker 13

And item number 15 is Sankalp 28569. Please proceed.

59:24 – 59:40Speaker 12

This Sankalp can be read in which the board of the North-West Illinois University has been expanded to the limits of the university so that it can also be included in Freeport City's SIT 836 West Stevenson Street. Thank you, Nideshya Khaimadingar.

59:40 – 1:01:39Speaker 2

Thank you, Maha Parvati. So, a few weeks ago, we had some properties that we wanted to add within the limits of the city of Freeport, in the Udyam area. And so, there was a proposal. One of them was not covered at the time because it had just come to the market and we had not taken any action on it. It was 836 West Stevenson, which is like Raleigh Mansion. and to be accepted by Parishad. After a few days, we became very interested in that property and since it has come to the market, many people were contacting us and asking if they would get any benefit or any kind of help when they bid for this property and they will start the necessary reconstruction of that structure. And that is why we explained to them that the Udyam area is a benefit that helps in freeing the house and in selling the house. And that is why such a building spread in about 8000 square feet. If you want to sell the entire house, then it definitely creates a big difference. So, tonight we have brought a proposal for you that that property should also be added to the capital so that we can include it in the capital area. We have a person who is against the ban. There is a long ban on this property. And you know me. There is a good chance that in the near future, through Parishad, there will be a reconciliation with that person. And they are hoping to restore it. And they want to bring it back to its old glory. That's why we are taking it with us. That's why we can do anything to help them. It is good for this community that they rebuild the house.

1:01:49Speaker 2

Go ahead. Okay.

1:01:51Speaker 15

Do you have any proposal for Nani?

1:01:54Speaker 15

Second. The elder man's saddle was proposed. The elder man's search was supported. That proposal was discussed. Elder man Stacey.

1:02:02Speaker 2

What is the address again? 836 West Stevenson. There is a picture of the house in your memo. I didn't see that. That is the third question. Oh, I didn't go too low.

1:02:18Speaker 12

Any other discussion?

1:02:20Speaker 14

Elderman Johnson? I think this house has been in a bad condition for a long time. I'm talking about years.

1:02:27Speaker 2

Yes, that's right. And yes, now it has also been removed.

1:02:32Speaker 11

Thank you. Did he say that this is a condom at this time?

1:02:38 – 1:02:56Speaker 2

And that's why you're taking it out of the house? Yes, excuse me. The people who are under house arrest, they think that what is expected of them to protect them from being condemned. And what is the location? I can't give an answer to this. I don't know. Okay.

1:02:56Speaker 8

If there is no discussion further, then Madam Clerk, please handle the ground.

1:03:06 – 1:03:23Speaker 12

Clem. Hello. Johnson. Me. Parker. Me. Stacey. Namaste. Schedule. Send us.

1:03:25Speaker 2

And sellers. Sankalp 7 to Jet has been adopted.

1:03:32Speaker 13

And item number 16, Sankalp 2026-99 has to be adopted. Can you please read it?

1:03:37Speaker 12

Stephen Hasselman and Colton Ashley, along with Alberta Airport, have been asked to approve the license agreement for cutting grass, producing grass and managing the farm. Thank you, Manager Boyer.

1:03:48 – 1:05:03Speaker 10

Thank you. One of the biggest jobs at the airport is to cut grass. Employees have found that you are working with a contractor to cut grass. We have done this before. However, we are working on a license agreement so that this year we can continue to cut grass in those areas and move forward with a land license agreement for household management. After a long time of contact for a suitable candidate, Shri Hasselman and Shri Ashley of the local area proposed a proposal to cut grass in 105 acres on the airfield for the city of Freeport and to manage the landfills. And so the staff examined all the documents, checked some backgrounds, all of them were approved and all the backgrounds were checked. That's why compared to the cost of cutting the grass, it's around 18,000-500 Rs. And the staff suggested that this is a 10-year license agreement and the staff suggested to move forward with Steve Hasselman. Is there any proposal for adoption?

1:05:03 – 1:05:16Speaker 15

I'll make a proposal. We have a proposal from Alderman Johnson, which has been supported by the Alderman's schedule. Discussion on proposal. Madam Clerk, please proceed with the application. Claim.

1:05:16 – 1:05:29Speaker 12

Me. Johnson. Parker. Stacey. Me. Sheddle. Me. Sanders. Me. Sellers. Me. And the application has been accepted from 7-0.

1:05:30Speaker 17

And item number 17, the application for acceptance is 2026-100. Please read it.

1:05:34Speaker 12

The application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for the application for

1:05:44 – 1:07:25Speaker 10

As everyone knows, whenever we get a chance to do sewer lining, we do this. We have about 130 miles of sanitary sewer lines, which affect our sanitary system. When we do road work, it can be very difficult. Obviously, we want to ensure that those sewers are lined so that after the road is made, we do not have any problem. From Karmachari Nagar Parishad, Sen. Sivar Lining is asking for approval to move forward with Community Development Block Anudhan, and a ward is being chosen. All the wards are concerned, and Sen. Sivar Lining will improve the foundation of these areas. CDBG is asking for a separate project for a specific area for a single project. So, the current supply chain demand is more than 125 million. And apart from our design, there is no need for any mix. It is expected that the city will establish 3500 to 37000 square feet of sewer mains and in 2027, the employees have planned to fund the design with the budget. So basically, we are going to take money from outside to make 35000 to 37000 square feet of sewer mains. When we enter the budget cycle of 2027, we are going to pay for the design work and application, which is coming soon. But the employees want to move forward with CDB. Forgive me. Yes, Mr. CDB, Anudhan. What? Is there any proposal to be adopted? So the second proposal? Okay.

1:07:25Speaker 8

The proposal has been placed by the Eldermen Channel. The proposal has been discussed by the Eldermen Service. The proposal has been discussed by the Eldermen Ministry.

1:07:37 – 1:07:51Speaker 11

City Manager Ber, can you tell us how much is the total cost of a city with design? So, the total cost will be around $150,000 and the rest of the city will be paid in cash.

1:07:51 – 1:08:14Speaker 10

So, we are giving $100 without knowing whether we will get cash or not. No, we'll apply for a loan. If we get a loan, we'll be able to move forward with the design. So, if we don't get a loan, we won't design.

1:08:14Speaker 14

If we don't get a loan, we won't have to spend anything to apply for it. I believe that we'll be able to apply for a loan.

1:08:19Speaker 10

You know, we're investing $5,000 to $10,000. So, applying for a loan is $5,000 to $10,000. Applying for a loan is $5,000 to $10,000.

1:08:24 – 1:08:39Speaker 11

Which we may not even get. Alderman Klein.

1:08:39Speaker 4

How successful are we in getting these donors?

1:08:44Speaker 10

I think we have received $85 million in the last five years, so I would say it is very successful.

1:08:50 – 1:10:22Speaker 18

Darren. So, especially for this era of CDBG donors, There are three areas in the city in Freeport, which are very suitable. One of them is at least 72% average, one is 75% and the other is 80% and it does not match our W Manchitra. That's why it's difficult to tell you the area. But for this, by studying the qualifications and point scoring system, it is a very good opportunity for Nivesh Freeport city to get this kind of grant without any mixed interest. Now, in fact, he has got it one more time and this year he has increased the interest rate by 1.5 million. It was not 1.5 million before. And as you all know, on the basis of prices in the 27th, Seawormain will be built from about 5 miles to 7 miles. And I am moving ahead with the prices this year. So Seawormain is a very big part of the lining, which ultimately has no impact on the usability. We do not bring donations in the city of Freeport, for which we do not think that it is very likely that we will get it. We do un-scoring before seeing the applications so that it can be sure that the money has been invested wisely. If we think that the scoring is going to decrease or there is no possibility of getting it, then we don't believe that this is an option for which we should apply.

1:10:22Speaker 15

And you are asking for 1.5 million for this loan with Milan Nidhi for construction.

1:10:27Speaker 14

Elder Man Johnson, if we get this loan, we will make a plan to answer it before making our budget. Okay, we will say yes. I see a high sign here. Wonderful.

1:10:39Speaker 11

Stacey, you said that there is no matching fund for construction.

1:10:46 – 1:11:20Speaker 9

There is no matching fund for construction in this grant. So this $1.5 million is only for construction. That's why Rob said that you cannot pay for the grant for construction and design. But they pay up to $8.5 million for this. And again, this cannot be such a gift that can be taken to the whole city. We really have to pay attention to the track of those three mediums. So some of our oldest basic concepts. Okay, if there is no discussion further, then madam clerk, please handle the ground.

1:11:23 – 1:11:36Speaker 12

Claim? Aye Johnson? Aye Parker? Aye Stacey? Aye Shedell? Aye Sanders? Aye E Horses? And that resolution has also been adopted from 7-0 Item No. 18 Resolution 2 H.P.

1:11:38Speaker 13

101 is to be adopted Can you read it like this?

1:11:40Speaker 12

To provide engineering services for the improvement of Meadowbrook Gravity Severs and to grant the consent of the proposed agreement with Fair Graham Thank you, Mr. Bhandari Agree

1:11:53 – 1:12:21Speaker 10

Metabrook is on a financial plan for this year. Now it's time to move forward with the design of the sewer. FAIR has proposed a plan or proposal for the design of the sewer. And the employer advises to move forward with that agreement. On G. In this, the sewer will be included from La Cresta to the end of the road. S. That's why it ends at Dakshinichhor. That's why the employer advises to move forward with the agreement in the currency of $130,000.

1:12:24Speaker 15

Is there any proposal to be accepted? Then move ahead. Second. The proposal has been placed by the Eldermen Seattle. Is it possible by the Eldermen Cellars? Discussion on proposal. Mrs. Tracy.

1:12:32 – 1:13:03Speaker 11

Does this area come outside the school? No. Okay. I know that... It was related to Shiorlo's letter. The one you read. What are the roads again? What is the area?

1:13:03Speaker 3

From Lacrista to Meadowbrook, and then to O'Hawk Hill to the dead end.

1:13:10Speaker 12

From Meadowbrook to Leicester.

1:13:18 – 1:13:39Speaker 9

The receiver project is of Metabrook, which is a three or four block area and then there is Sunview. When we were there, we called on that vehicle, which we were thinking later in the agenda, which we had given permission to repair the footpath in that area. It is not safe and we don't want to go back and destroy it. And we don't want to drive a truck on the stuff we are putting in.

1:14:00Speaker 11

Item number 20.

1:14:07 – 1:14:22Speaker 12

Can you please read it? We left number 1. You removed 19. Excuse me. Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Open Space, Land Acquisition, Development, or OZOLAD, for the support of the city, to authorize the proposal. Proposal.

1:14:27 – 1:15:34Speaker 10

Thank you, Marni. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources wants to provide an OLAB application for a pocket park in West Vinson. We had planned to do this last year, but we were rejected at the last moment. To authorize the OLAB application, and if the money is allocated, it is necessary to approve the conditions of the program. This year, we are again applying for this special donation. The city has been designated as a tribal community through ITNR, which allows up to 600,000 applications without any local merger in OLED funding. And the last date of application is August 31, 2026. That is why the date of the present proposal is August 28. The application process is required and the deadline to submit the application on the 17th will have to be fulfilled. Therefore, there will be no immediate impact on Amriti. The city can contribute up to Rs. 600,000 and without any confusion, it is recommended to proceed with the application for West Vinson Street Pocket Park. Thank you. Is there any proposal to be made?

1:15:36Speaker 8

Then proceed. Second. The proposal has been made by the elder man. The elder man is being scheduled. The discussion on the proposal is on this.

1:15:43Speaker 11

And how much will be spent on this application?

1:15:51Speaker 10

I think this is a last year's carryover. I think we have already filled the application once.

1:15:57Speaker 11

Okay. I don't know what the last year's carry-over is.

1:15:59 – 1:16:28Speaker 18

So, we signed last year and we are going to sign again this year. Last year, we were one of the last candidates. But instead of the city's plan, the park district got money, which was the Pea Pocket Park. Excuse me. And the city was not going to get a two-year contract. So, the park district project got a fund of 600,000 last year. Oh, and that's why it has been re-submitted. And tonight, whatever you are actually approving, that is a proposal of support by the municipality, which is necessary as part of the application.

1:16:28Speaker 11

So are you saying that we have already applied for this application? We have applied for it last year.

1:16:34 – 1:16:52Speaker 9

So we are basically doing this for you and we are asking for a proposal of support to craft funding. We have already made the assumptions. We have already prepared the complete application package. We are ready to submit again. Do you know?

1:16:52 – 1:17:37Speaker 11

He is disappointed. I have tried for four years to get a park in the third ward or fifth ward. No one else has moved forward with it. But we want to make a pocket park here. And we want to make it in the middle of the city. We want to make a pocket park here. Now to Stevenson. When are we going to support the children of the 3rd and 5th ward? This is actually in the 3rd ward. To Stevenson.

1:17:37Speaker 8

This is in the middle of the city.

1:17:41Speaker 11

The 3rd ward is near the Joe's Pizza area. This is correct.

1:17:46Speaker 15

This is the 3rd ward.

1:17:49 – 1:18:13Speaker 11

It is a pocket park, about which I thought that we had established it last year. So, what is the name of this area? Merigarh. Merigarh. Please express your gratitude to Ayun. He gave this place to Jagat. And that's why we were going for a donation. For some reason, he went to the park district and we... We did not get it in the last year's round.

1:18:18 – 1:19:02Speaker 18

And this is a new cycle in which we are trying to get the same money because we have a lot of capital for the fund. For Freeport, this is another no-match for construction. There is a grant, so we mostly consider the OSI donations to be 50-50. So for a $600,000 project, you will give the city $300,000 and then the donor will pay $300,000 in full. So a total of $600,000 project. In this matter, Freeport's current population is not a match for us. And that's why this is another project that is being done by Ms. Garvin and this city for the sake of their work.

1:19:02Speaker 11

It can be bought very little or without any funding for the residents. Then... I hope you get it.

1:19:09Speaker 8

If there is no discussion further, then Madam Clerk, please take care of the land. Coming.

1:19:17 – 1:19:28Speaker 12

Johnson, Parker, Stacey, Shedell, Sanders, and Sayers. The proposal has been passed from 7-0.

1:19:29Speaker 8

Item No. 21, Proposal No. 26604 is to be adopted. Can you please read this proposal?

1:19:32Speaker 12

Howard E. Actuarial service agreement with Nihart Company. Proposal No. 1. Thank you, Nileshak Richard.

1:19:45 – 1:21:29Speaker 11

Thank you, Marni. OK. The report was submitted in October 2023 for actual services. The purpose of the RSP was to get a firm to provide financial services for the Police and Firefighter Pension Fund, to prepare the GASB 67 and 68 reports, as well as to prepare reports on other post-employment benefits. These calculations are necessary for our annual audit. The RFP requested a loan for the first three years and also gave an option for two more years. Nihart was selected from a total of four submissions. This is a national firm that serves more than 700 foreign customers. It provides services to more than 60 Illinois police and fire pension schemes, and it fulfills the needs of workers' education, licenses, and certificates. When RFP was opened, the cost of Nihart for all five years was a total of Rs. 76,250, which was the lowest. Nihart has served Santosh Janak for the past three years.

1:21:29Speaker 10

To Pesh Kiya Gaya Doosra

1:21:32Speaker 15

We have a proposal by elder man Sheryl that elder man Johnson has supported. Discussion on proposal.

1:21:43Speaker 11

Elder man Stacey. What will anyone say yes or no?

1:21:54Speaker 8

Nideshak Richter.

1:21:59 – 1:22:21Speaker 7

I mean, if you don't think that the firm has done a good job or that they haven't given what was asked of them, they have provided all the reports on time. They did what was asked of them in the RFP. If they didn't do that, then I think you won't say anything. I'm saying that they did what was asked of them. Anything else? Or domestic?

1:22:30 – 1:23:33Speaker 11

And so will it be your suggestion that we accept two years? Accepting two years will be in our benefit. I cannot do this work. This is also a demand. I am not an actuary. There is no actuary in the city. We use firms for this. And the reports they prepare are necessary for our audit. And that is why I cannot get an audit done properly. I cannot get an audit done completely without these reports. Understood? In order to prepare these reports, their speciality is needed so that I can give my auditor so that we can audit. They also give us such reports that tell us how much money we need to invest in the police and pension fund to fulfill our responsibilities in that area. When we got the pension bond back five years ago, we needed to fulfill our financial contribution. And our financial contribution is determined on the basis of these reports.

1:23:33Speaker 14

Thank you for explaining. Now, no more discussion. Madam Clerk, please take your seat.

1:23:44 – 1:23:55Speaker 12

Johnson, I, Parker, I, Stacey, I, Shadal, I, Sanders, I, and I, Sirs. This proposal has been passed from 7-0.

1:23:56Speaker 8

Item 22, Resolution 2026, is to be adopted. Can you read this resolution?

1:24:01Speaker 12

Illinois Department of Transportation and Freeport City along with the All-City Transportation Fund, can authorize the application. This resolution can be read.

1:24:06Speaker 2

This resolution can be read. This resolution can be read.

1:24:08Speaker 8

This resolution can be read.

1:24:11 – 1:26:59Speaker 2

Thank you very much. The city of Freeport receives the Sanghiya Pargaman Prashasan Anubhag 5-6N Cigar Funding and is a person who has reached the mandatory establishment of Man Dando to purchase vehicles to change the current vehicles, to purchase vehicles for transportation, to apply through the program and to obtain them. Currently, three minivans, six light-duty paratransit buses and a medium-duty paratransit bus are operated by PZO City Area Transit. Each vehicle has a range of 142,674 miles and the vehicle is available for the month. This vehicle is a model year from 2016 to 2019. As these high mileage vehicles get older, they need maintenance and repair, which can reduce the number of vehicles available for service. In the availability of vehicles, the level of maintenance service that is provided to the people at a low cost and the negative impact on the world economy can be affected. The CVP program also provides the city with the opportunity to request additional vehicles for CVP expansion and new transportation services from 2016 to 2026. The report wants to change three minivans, six light-duty paratransit buses and one medium-duty paratransit bus, which are currently in service with the PICCIAD. Apart from this, the city is asking for four new medium-sized vehicles to provide additional vehicle capacity and additional vehicle capacity to reduce the demands placed on the existing fleet due to continuous high use and support for the expansion of the planned road traffic system within the city-leport city. For IKIs, for present estimated per minivan, 75,000 per light-duty paratransit vehicle is 126,000 and per medium-duty paratransit vehicle is 130,000. The total estimated cost of 2026CV demand is Rs. 1.7 million. There is no need to add any space for this operation. To give you a little more information, Rajya Bhar is a little more than 17 million available in the state, and that is why we are requesting a WEDST of 7 million for our program. To support the expansion of parkman services in the establishment and freewood city within the PC-8 program, we again recommend that the city of Freeport be approved to proceed with the 2026 C.V.P. application.

1:27:06 – 1:27:18Speaker 15

Do you have a proposal to accept? So it was presented. Second. We have a proposal for the Eldermen's Schedule Dora, which has been supported by the Eldermen Sir. We discussed the proposal. What is the cost of this application? There is no cost.

1:27:18Speaker 14

We are just making an application for this money.

1:27:25Speaker 11

And we don't have to spend anything to do that.

1:27:28 – 1:27:39Speaker 2

Anyway, I mean, Sadi spent a very good time before making the application. So that's it. Just get the work done.

1:27:41Speaker 13

If there is no discussion, then Madam Clerk, please take care of it. Aye.

1:27:45Speaker 12

Johnson, aye. Parker. Ishtasi, aye. Shad. Sanders, aye. And Sayers, aye. Proposal 7-0 has been passed.

1:27:56Speaker 8

Item 23, Proposal 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-

1:28:07Speaker 9

Let me start this.

1:28:09 – 1:30:41Speaker 10

There is an auto renewal policy in the agreement with Greater Free Partnership, which I think starts for about 120 days. So tonight I have brought in front of you whether the council wants to continue the auto renewal policy or want to do something different. With the city and the greater free partnership, the current decree, keeping in mind, was approved on January 24, starting on December 26. As I said, the decree will be renewed for another year, until one of the two parties begins to write a written notice of their intention to not increase the decree. At least, the written notice begins to be written. At least, it should not be given 120 days before the end of the year. Therefore, if the city's intention to renew the 27th decree is not to renew itself, then it will not happen. Currently, a $400,000 annual compensation has been provided by the municipality. Funding sources have been identified, such as various tax funds, tax increments, financing districts, hotel, motel tax, tourism, promotion fund, and general fund. On the basis of SEMR deliverables, a performance bonus of $25,000 has also been granted. No benchmark has been established for Bitverse 25 in Bitverse 24. No bonus has been given during this consultation. Since 2018, the city has invested approximately 3.3 million in the Greater Free Partnership. To fund the Greater Free Port Partnership with the end of the LEM Road TIFF district, approximately 160,000 will be used in the current Warshik Rajasthan. Instead, those Rajasthan will be influenced and re-distributed in Nikayas. This cut-off currently accounts for about 45% of the 400,000 annual income and limits the capacity of the city to maintain the existing funding level for the year 2027. The current agreement will not end with the announcement of the 11th of November, which will remain in effect until 31st December. Instead, it will protect the ability of the city council to reduce the cost of available funds and to determine the environment and infrastructure suitable for future economic development services. It has no negative impact at this time and the city council is advised by the GFP association not to authorize the renovation itself. Is there any proposal to be adopted? So let's move ahead.

1:30:41Speaker 15

Second. What was the proposal done by Alderman Sheetal? Was it supported by Alderman Sir? Proposal discussion. Alderman Sir.

1:30:51 – 1:31:07Speaker 14

Oh, I want to know that because of TIFF's lack of support, what will we do? Will we sit with GFP again and discuss a new agreement? Is there any opportunity to find out how we can help them financially?

1:31:19 – 1:31:30Speaker 3

So if this stage is not new, then we will be able to review it and we will be able to discuss what we want to do on the basis of the available funding.

1:31:34Speaker 13

Wait, Mrs. Stacey.

1:31:38 – 1:32:31Speaker 11

You know, Ms. Andrea, the previous director, They didn't bring anything for our city. No business, no jobs. For the past few years, we have been listening to reports on reports. Still, what are they bringing for our city? Which jobs have come here? Which businesses have come here? They are not taking the credit of someone else's new business. And I don't think that they have fulfilled their duties and responsibilities towards the people of Freeport. What do we have to show for this?

1:32:46Speaker 13

Any other discussion? What time is it?

1:32:50 – 1:33:43Speaker 14

No, I was just saying that I want it. Because it won't end by December. December. 1st December. 1st December. I would like us to go back to the table and reach an agreement on which we will not be able to get rid of GFP. Rather, what can we do and how will we help them financially by losing $180,000 in TIF? I would like to see this. You know, this should be done to find out. We don't have to leave them, but we have to find out what we are going to do. Will we continue some areas or Will you terminate the entire agreement or will you bring something else?

1:33:45Speaker 8

Alderman Susi.

1:33:46 – 1:33:57Speaker 11

You just said that... Mayor Miller, 31st December. Okay. But won't you have to decide something before September?

1:33:58Speaker 13

This is about you wanting to auto-renew. As if there's no discussion. This is just auto-renew. You want it that way. That's all. If we...

1:34:10Speaker 17

If we don't do anything, then it will be renewed at any cost.

1:34:12Speaker 15

What if it doesn't get repaired before the 2nd of September? That's right.

1:34:16Speaker 17

That's why it's in front of you. Do you want auto-renewal? Basically, this is the question. Attorney is in.

1:34:26 – 1:35:07Speaker 9

So, before you all vote, make this clear. So the question is, do you want the agreement to be auto-renewed for another year or not? Because the best way is to always prepare your proposals in a positive way, which means that it is written in the proposal that you want the agreement to be auto-renewed. If you want the agreement to be auto-renewed, then vote yes. If you don't want the agreement to be auto-renewed, then vote no on this proposal. Because the best way is to always prepare the proposal in a positive way. It is written that if you vote yes, then you are voting for auto-renewal. So if you don't want it to be auto-renewed, then vote no.

1:35:08Speaker 8

If there is no further discussion, then Madam Clerk, please handle the ground.

1:35:16 – 1:35:35Speaker 12

Johnson, Parker, Desi, Sheddle, Sanders, and Sellers. And the decision to accept is a failure from 7 to 0. It will be called 0 to 7 properly.

1:35:35Speaker 15

Item number 24 of the bill is an amendment.

1:35:37Speaker 12

On 28th July, 2026, for Metrobrook Lane, Senatory, Sewer and Street, there can be the permission to open the bill.

1:35:46 – 1:36:22Speaker 10

Manager Boyer Thank you On Tuesday, July 28, a bullet was opened in the city for the Metabrook Gravity Seaver Project. A bullet was obtained from Pfizer Excavating, and that proven bullet was made by Sarni. This is a concession. The proposed alternative bullet by Pfizer, including the original bullet, is in the form of 1-12-13-149, which is in the form of 849, which is 849.80. We advise you to move forward with the right planet and the right work with the Pfizer excavating and the Gravity Seaver project. Do you have any proposal for Anumodin? Proposal. Second.

1:36:22Speaker 8

Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel.

1:36:24Speaker 15

Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel. Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel. Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel.

1:36:28Speaker 8

Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel.

1:36:31Speaker 12

Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel. Proposal is done by Alderman Seidel.

1:36:45Speaker 15

As we were discussing earlier, we have about 130 millimetres of sewage.

1:37:11 – 1:38:38Speaker 10

We are trying our best to get rid of these problems. We are trying our best to get rid of these problems. We are trying our best to get rid of these problems. We are trying our best to get rid of these problems. This is considered to be the best way to do sewer lining. On 11th August, 2026, we installed 8,413 racquet feet sanitary sievers for sewer lining. Let's see. Along with this, 330 racquet feet were installed for storm water infrastructure. This area has been marked during our road change. So this is related to our road program and where we are working. The four-star boleys in the city, which are specialized in sewer lining, have been presented. And after the Manit boleys, Hair Construction was going to install a boleys that would give a minimum response of 460 solar. According to the engineers' estimate, for sewer, Keensal 2800, for storm, Antimids 147, and for storm, So the city officials are making plans to fund the sewer and storm water capital improvement budget for this work. And the officials advise to move forward with the construction of HAIR. Is there any proposal for Anumodin?

1:38:38Speaker 15

So move ahead.

1:38:39Speaker 8

Second. The proposal has been made by Alderman Sehdal. The proposal is discussed. Madam Clerk, please proceed.

1:38:48 – 1:38:59Speaker 12

Claim. Johnson, Aye. Parker, Aye. Stacey, Aye. Sehdal. Sanders. Vikrita. Prostav 7-0 se swikrit hua.

1:39:01Speaker 8

Aur item 26, ek aur boli hai, ki aapke piya pashat.

1:39:05Speaker 12

Central Fire Station window replacement ke liye 11 August 2026 ko boli kholi gayi thi.

1:39:11Speaker 8

Manager Boyer.

1:39:12 – 1:39:36Speaker 10

Thank you. On August 13, the city opened a meeting for the Central Fire Station Window Replacement Project. We only got one meeting. It was from Nikam Construction and the meeting tab was verified. Nikam had set up a meeting of 445 fire sergeants. And we ask the staff to give the right to change the windows of the Central Fire Station to ICAM Construction. Thank you.

1:39:36Speaker 9

Is there any proposal for approval? Then second proposal.

1:39:42Speaker 17

We have an elder man schedule, a proposal for which the elder man sets a discussion. Madam Mayor.

1:39:48Speaker 9

I just wanted to tell you that we were going to have another call, but they did not reach on time to open the call, and so we could not open their call, and so we did not open their call. For the elder. Oh yes, I noticed one thing.

1:39:57Speaker 4

You had a test and you took it out for some windows, right?

1:40:06 – 1:40:23Speaker 18

Yes, I worked with Chief Cordy and he was not a window in reality. He was just the whole establishment of Transform. And that Chief Cordy and I met on the site and agreed that those who are present are very good and they can be colored with new Transform colors to match. And that's why I think we valued them and took them out. Okay, thank you.

1:40:29Speaker 14

Any other problem? Yes, I was just going to ask how many windows are there in the entire camera? It will change. How many for the chief?

1:40:46Speaker 8

If there is no further discussion, Madam Clerk, please take care of the land.

1:40:51 – 1:41:09Speaker 12

Claim. Johnson. Shuttle. Sanders. And sir, I think that the policy has been accepted from 7-0. With... Community development? Nothing tonight. Bye.

1:41:09 – 1:43:21Speaker 18

Look Nirma, just some project updates. That Demeter Drive here in Freeport is going to... They should start making roads from Empire to La Cresta. We are now starting the water supply and after that the water pipeline will go to Hickory Hill. I know that there is a lot of construction going on in this area. There is a lot of dust and dirt. Give us another 60 days and this will be much better. I appreciate your patience. I also wanted to tell you that there is a problem with storm sewer. Piping is shown in the city's GIS map. is completely broken. I know we are working on it right now and are looking for different ways to fix it. One more important announcement is that construction work is underway in Carol, South Carol I got a note during the meeting that tomorrow at 6 am civil engineers will arrive and line up by 7 am. So please, before 6 am from Rajshree Bridge today, see a survey about getting out of your car so that we can move forward with that work. One more thing on which I would like to emphasize that we have many spectacular reports about potholes. We do a lot of research on those reports, which gives us the tools to do our research and to fill these holes, we get the tools to do our research and to do our research and to fill these holes, we get the tools to do our research and to fill these holes, we get the tools to do our research and to fill these holes, we get the tools to do our research and to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the tools to fill these holes, we get the That parking space is not the property of Freeport city and that's why we can't fix it because it contains the money of the people's debtors and private property is used. That's why whenever you send your response, keep this in mind. Whenever you are in a private parking space or on the road near Taco Bell Applebee's, they are not the private roads of the city and that's why their repair work cannot be done by Freeport city. Thank you.

1:43:23Speaker 15

One question. Elmon Stacey, what... Sarvajini means private parking.

1:43:31Speaker 17

The people who do not take care of the area are punished.

1:43:37 – 1:44:21Speaker 18

Unfortunately, it is not like that. I don't think we can find a person who is not taking care of his property. I mean, we can recommend him. Even before, if the situation gets very serious, we have tried to fill some holes made of coal. But when we start filling those holes, which are not the property of Freeport, we start taking responsibility. And the potholes are made to get damaged again, right? The cold patch doesn't stay in the potholes. That's why we are not trying to use that product anymore. And we are using the hot patch. That's why, when the city administrator Ber tried to help, he stressed on the risk reduction. And we try to help, but we don't want to put the city in the risk of responsibility to fix such a thing, which is not our property. Fire.

1:44:24Speaker 5

Don't shoot anything.

1:44:27 – 1:44:48Speaker 11

Police. Thank you. I want to thank everyone who came to the beat meeting. They were very successful. I had 10-38 people who saw that there is a new matrix for our police department, which shows the material presentation and arrangement. We gave them a very new one.

1:44:54Speaker 14

Excuse me, is this a pipe leak? Oh, okay. Okay. I didn't believe that I had to get up.

1:45:01 – 1:46:56Speaker 11

If you have a valve wrench, then maybe it... As I was saying, this has really given them a new perspective about community meet-meeting. That how they should be. That how they should be. We have done a lot of positive community participation. And I would like to thank the elders, Parker Johnson's emcees, Ushadal and city administrator Rob Baer, who were present with the members of the community because we are teaching them and how we should move forward. Secondly, we are going to make a list of the new beat meetings in September. We had a lot of questions about what they want to see in the future. So this connection was very positive. Yesterday we had a competition between Brotherhood for Bucket and Brotherhood Bucket, Freeport Young Hoops and FPD. They defeated us. They will run for my money, this is for sure, these are small children. We played basketball with them in the Boys and Girls Club, but it was very positive. We were very well welcomed. We are doing something different and I think it is very important that we stay within the community because we have been in the community as a police department. And I also want to say that we finished our Municipal Police Academy. We started from 16th and completed 13th. When we started in 2023, it was the biggest. It was cancelled again, so we are going to do it in September. Our junior police academy has just released 17 students, which is one of the biggest incidents. So this information has been given to all the communities that how the police department works and how they can work together with us. And in the end, my last public service announcement is that I request everyone to please keep their doors closed. You know, if you are going to the theater or going to eat, then please keep your doors closed. This is an optional crime on which we Library.

1:47:21 – 1:48:25Speaker 15

I am going to give you CRC figures for July, but I would also like to thank all those who participated in the summer reading. You made it incredibly successful. For about 30 seconds, Amanda was worried that she could not reach the same number as last year. I told her to complete more than 50%. It is still an amazing number. So for the month of July, our CRC figures were circulated. The use of the meeting room was done at 122. The library was used 110 times. Our computer was used 946 times. And last month, by using the library, the researchers saved 226,646. And we are making a new discussion group. It is a kind of book club, but not a book club. If you think that you can't read any book for book club, then we are choosing a topic and you can read a book, watch a movie, watch a film, listen to a podcast, read some news article about it, and then join the discussion group. In this way, you can still participate in something, but you won't have to read the whole book in four weeks.

1:48:32 – 1:48:45Speaker 10

Your luggage. I wanted to thank the Boys and Girls Club, James, Rayan and Jansensi. Yes, I was very tired yesterday, but I felt that these people are very nice. So, thank you very much for doing this and we appreciate your luck.

1:48:50 – 1:49:12Speaker 17

And then, as you all know, every month before Nagar Parishad, on the 2nd and 3rd of Monday night, and on the 5th of August, that's why we have two Mondays. There won't be any where we will meet. And then, the first Monday of September is Shram Diwas. That's why we will meet on Tuesday, September 8th. So, the coming few weeks will be good, when you don't have to stay here on Monday. Along with this, the elder man claim.

1:49:13 – 1:49:25Speaker 4

Nothing. But for the beat meeting, thanks to Pramukh. And I just want to say that I thank the Boys and Girls Club and William Brown and all of them who took part in the basketball game.

1:49:38 – 1:49:54Speaker 14

It was very interesting to watch. It was fun to watch. And it was fun even before that they had young boys who were competing in a race and a three-point shootout. And it was fun to watch all of them. And they were all enjoying it. And they were all enjoying it. So, thanks to all of you.

1:49:55Speaker 5

Elderman Parker, nothing tonight. Elderman Stacey.

1:49:58Speaker 14

Nothing tonight.

1:50:00Speaker 5

Elderman Sheidel.

1:50:01Speaker 8

Nothing tonight. Elderman Sayers.

1:50:04Speaker 14

I just want to say that I had a lot of fun in the Boys and Girls Club and I hope that they will do the same next year.

1:50:10 – 1:50:26Speaker 17

And forgive me, Elderman Sanders, I didn't mean to ignore you. Did you want to say anything? No. Thank you. Then we have two who have been certified for Sarvajanik Tipani. Madam Clerk, do you have anyone who has entered this?

1:50:29 – 1:53:35Speaker 12

Yes, this was an email. My name is Gaze Daze. Freeport is my home. However, I am currently living in Kuwait and working. Because I cannot come in person in front of you, I want my words to be read out and recorded in a clean record. I am saying this to stop the use of flock safety cameras in Freeport. This is not an attack on our police officers and this is not a claim that Sarojanik protection does not matter. This is a warning that our city has crossed such a limit in the name of protection that every citizen should be worried. Whether they should ever be worried, whether they have ever committed a crime. These cameras do not only take pictures of suspects, they record ordinary people living in their normal lives. They can record when we leave the house, where we worship, when we go to the doctor, who we go to, whether we are involved in any political sit-in or Sarojanik demonstration or not. In short, this record can highlight a person's activities, relationships, habits, and beliefs. Freeport's ALPR policy says that there is no need to suspect a possible cause before using the ALPR. This means that a resident does not need to suspect any wrong work before the government searches for the system that records the travel of vehicles. We should be afraid of this. Not because every official will misuse the system, but because no government can make such a powerful investment on the basis of this hope that it will never be misused. The records that I received from them raised serious questions on the way to approve and implement this program. The city has prepared a flock order form in which the starting period of 25 months and the new beginning period of 24 months, approximately 84 stars, 276 hundred, the annual average, and the total amount of 171.45 chhoni was the price list. The documents of the city administration on September 18, 2025, however, Sitter City later told me in writing that there is no written agreement or agreement between the city and the flock. The city also said that there is no record of identification of the number of Tainat products, while its production includes a flock system screen that shows 16 products. This is not a small question. The residents have the right to know who authorized this program, how it was implemented, how many cameras are working, who can search for data, which foreign agencies can reach it, and whether someone had previously identified the privacy and cyber security risks of Tainati and identified the cyber security risks. Freedom is not the only ability to travel. The ability to travel without the help of the government, where are we, what is its history worth searching for? Once the municipal foundation is ready, it may interfere less. It spreads, connects with more databases, reaches more agencies, and it becomes difficult to remove it. And I say to stop the further expansion, expansion, renovation and collection of data from this situation. Keep this program on a public agenda, have a public hearing. We need complete legal, secret policy, cyber security, and intelligence services. Please excuse me to end the program.

1:53:35Speaker 15

Your time is up.

1:53:36 – 1:53:54Speaker 13

Next time, we have Angela Spearman with us.

1:53:54 – 1:55:39Speaker 11

As she said, my name is Angela Spearman. I have been living in Freeport, Illinois for a long time. I love my city, but on 27 July, a few weeks ago, I was worried about some incidents. I was a victim of a crime. The doors of my house were closed. Two youths came to my house and beat the car with a baton. I called the police and filed a report. I also have the video. I have the video of both the incidents. Brandon came in and tried to break the door by kicking it. While my son and grandson were inside the house. Later, the boss came back with him and broke both the cars. I filed a police report again. And I also have the video. I called the police. I left a message for you. And you have to see what happens to those youths who did this. I was turned around and the responsibility was on others. I had to go to the police station. I had to talk to the state attorney. Again and again. I was tired. I got a message from the state attorney that they will not take the case. So what will be the result of this? It's like you can do anything. You can do any crime and you can escape. Again, I have footage of this incident. I thought, as the Mayor had said earlier, let's do the right thing. Let's do the right thing and punish these people. I don't feel safe in Freeport anymore. As if I have been here all my life. And this hurts me. And I just want justice. Justice. Thank you.

1:55:56 – 1:58:08Speaker 5

Namaskar Freeport Those of you who are in Nagar Parishad First of all, I would like to talk about agenda item number 9 And I am introducing my tipni chaya My tipni is that you were in those vats And in the next part, none of us can decide what someone's intentions are Miscellers The next thing I would like to talk about is Freeport Partnership. I was in the first meeting of those people who had started this. The name of Freeport Partnership has been changed at least five times. And why do I have Asharay? I remember many of them. In one, this name has been changed five times. There is something wrong with that picture. In relation to the WARD map, WARD's The map of the city was changed in 2022. And it was changed based on the sensor of 2020. And the reason for changing it in that process and the number of people dying in this city is this. The third ward lost 570 residents. The second ward lost 442 residents. The fifth ward lost 417 homeless residents in this city. And that's why on the basis of the 2020 general election, they had to do this so that a total of 3, 4, 7, 125 equally accessed wards or wards can be mapped. So the answer to your question is that it has been changed from the bottom to the matiff. This was the beginning. It used to be closed before reaching the main city area. But the loss of inhabitants and if you pay attention to the third war of 552, which means that people were dying, they were being displaced or they were being taken out on the basis of that. So these are the answers to some questions that we will not give you.
