“But there will be something that it's up on the next week's agenda. Because at that time, we're going to have the chance to discuss the scope and maybe trim it down or see, you know, and then revise the number before the following week budget.”

“Yeah, no, thank you. I think it's a good clarification. It'd be great if we could add that original resolution to this whole conversation, because that's probably the document that we don't have here.”

“I mean, we didn't talk about the next step, like what's gonna happen? How do we nullify this? Because to me, the issue is that it's, we went out to the voters, it is true. They voted on something which I think conceptually they kind of understood, and this is what they wanted. So now we're finding a problem. So it's very convoluted. So on one side, we have the residents who have expressed an opinion. So now we're trying to... not consider that because of a technical issue, which I totally understand, by the way. And I understand your argument also about what you guys went through with the…”

“I posted a video on my Instagram page last night just because it's good to get emails from residents. I think it's a great thing. And there may be a specific item that is picking your interest, but there's a lot going on. Feel free to send emails. Feel free to... speak on the podium it's it really really helps us it gives us the feedback that we need to guide ours are to guide our decisions so thank you for that”

“Yeah, I'd be, I'm okay with that. I mean, we did, the previous commission did that as well, right? There were like a bunch of applications and they decided to go. Yeah. So I don't think that there's anything in particular that would, be a problem in this case. I don't see it. And then maybe since that each one of us has to pick someone, then we'll wait for Commissioner Weingart and Vice Mayor to pick who they wanna pick for the regular Youth Council members. I think that could make sense.”

“It's a question. Do we have to go through this again? That's what you're saying.”

“IF YOU FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS IS NOT THE WAY THAT IT SHOULD BE SINCE THAT MANY OTHER TIMES YOU WERE ABLE TO INFLUENCE THE COMMISSION, I THINK THAT IT'S POINTLESS TO VOTE ON THIS AND GO ON BACK AND FORTH ON SOME BAKERY. I APPRECIATE THAT.”

“Just a question. So if we're going to have way more parents that are going to sign up for this, then I think it's good that we revisit that should that happen. So looking at Rudy, see if then maybe, you know, because I think we had like 50 that signed up for last year or something like that. But if we have like 70, 80 this year, then.”

“Yeah, I mean, I wish that we could have worked a little longer together. I think this is no secret. But, you know, we are where we are. And again, thank you for everything you've done. It's, I think I have to say that it's, these few months, This period from when we got elected to now, for me it's the first time that I have a public office, right? It's been great to have you by our side because it's challenging. You get flooded with all this information and sometimes you can't tell the difference between up and down, but you've been great at always being able to give us the answers that we…”

“Can I just ask a question to, just an update on the consultant selection for the urban planning? Do you have any update on that?”

“Yeah, so I just wanted to expand a little bit on that idea of the of the reefs because one of the upcoming items on the agenda, as you've seen, is the street ends. And And actually, one of the issues that we have is illegal boating. So we can actually take that idea to extend out the, well, in this case, corals that would not only help the environment, but also help the cars and avoid this illegal boating. So I think this is actually a great idea.”

“I forgot to say something. I spoke only for about a minute. So sorry because, again, being an engineer, when I hear an engineering idea, then I get carried away. But there were a few other things that I wanted to say. So one was about the memorial. And Martin, we had a conversation about that. And I spoke my mind at the meeting. I believe in process. And I said that even at the meeting when we were talking about that. And so I fully support the ideas that come out from that process. And well, regarding the special meeting, I've expressed my opinion on that a few times during the meeting. It…”

“Yeah, and I was thinking about that, whether they should be separate or tied to the charrette. I would propose this being separate, just because the idea of the urban planning is that we get together and we figure out what we want. I think this could be an initiative that we promote as a commission. It's still going to go through a workshop and public input and planning and zoning and all that. So, in fact, it'll be similar. It's just that since that we identified that solution, it could be fast-tracked.”

“So you see what I put in the cover page. I outlined a possible path. that goes through some surveying and then identifying the areas and then evaluating the security enhancement options. So I would suggest that public works review this. the steps and see if we need to add anything. And if we all agree, we can start the process. The idea is that we go through these steps to come up with a plan. So once we have, call it, 30% plans or concept plans, I would do a workshop We get the input, and then we finalize the plans.”

“Yeah, and just one second, just to give a little background. So it's not only accessibility, it's security as well. So let's not forget that this... This is coming also from, not the initiative, but this has been triggered also by issues that we saw and that has been experienced by residents who live nearby these tree tents. So at the moment, right now, in many areas, there's no separation. We don't even know where public land is, basically where the border between public and private stands. There's no barrier. So there's reports of people crossing over, going into other people's docks. So…”

“Yeah, well, the motion would be to instruct Public Works to go through these 10 steps, verify them, expand on them if needed, and start the process per the steps that they're gonna finalize.”

“the street lighting improvement program. Because this is, I think, something that we touched upon in the past. I think that there is pretty much interest, right, if I read the commission's intent correctly. Could we maybe try to craft a path forward on that? I know that the issues that we're going to have Sandra wearing two hats here, but maybe this is another one where the path could directly go through public works. Because I think we're lacking a... like engineering plans on that. There's an idea, there's a concept, but we still have to go through, we still need to engage an engineer to go…”
