“Thank you. Thank you to my colleagues for asking really great questions. I had to kind of dig deep, but One that I would be remiss if I did not ask, so thank you, is for both of you and keeping it as concise as we can. One of the things that I believe deeply to my core is the power of diversity. With that in mind, what do you believe that you personally bring to the table that might be missing from the conversation?”

“Thanks for the question. Council Vice President. Thank you. And just confirming that all that you said was right on target. In the vein of we've got a tight turnaround. We're unbelievably now in the second week of September. And that feels odd saying that. However, here we are. We've got a very tight turnaround to keep us on track for our January 1 implementation of this. So my question is in that light of what are, and to keep us on track, what are some of the decisions or the input that council needs to deliver on to keep us on that track versus what decisions have effectively already been…”

“Thank you. On a macro level, I love the concept of this. I'm seeing overlap of some of the things that we saw actually in our Committee of the Whole meeting earlier with ReadyAR on the questionnaire and where some of the frustration with staff lies. In the Matrix report, we see this again where some of the frustration lies. not being able to get a clear answer at a single point. So there's things I'm very excited about this. For the matrix, I would love to see in the matrix report, it was said that the recommendation, the org chart looked very different than this. So echoing what was earlier…”

“Thank you. Thank you, Council Member Parsi, for bringing up the highway per use tax, and that has some unintentional consequences. I was recently driving across the state, and it was very stark how... Older vehicles, especially when it comes to lower income, older vehicles, not as having to drive much farther away, as well as right here in our own. So thank you for bringing that up. Also, for the record, I want to echo Council Member Forsyth's comment about AI, making sure that we're telling our story of whatever the percentage of renters that we are. when we get that dialed in. And also…”

“Very quickly, on page eight, there was a call out for the City Hall MNO. It had a significant increase in 2033 and beyond. 2033 is kind of around the corner. So can you give us a heads up of what might be coming down the line?”

“And the question that I was originally had my hand up and was going to email, but then are waiting for more information. Since you had brought up the teen center, it was on the teen center. And Director Hamilton, thank you for speaking to how broad of a, how conservative we're being with this number of 35 million, because many of the public and listening, you know, remember a different number that was put forth, but understanding why this is not saying that the rebuild will cost 35 million, but rather this is what we're budgeting out. We're setting it aside because it is a priority. So by no…”

“I'd like to move that we extend the meeting. There's some things that we do need to just make a quick plug for for council talk time. I second.”

“Thank you. Just a reminder that the city is going to be hosting a 9-11 remembrance ceremony outside City Hall. on Friday, September 11th at 8.20. And then also, even though it is next week, and we will see each other before then, but we won't be doing a council talk time, is the reminder for the downtown Redmond Art Walk on the 17th. If you have already signed up for your table time, wonderful. If you would like to sign up for an additional table time, there's a couple more slots that still needs to be filled. And for the listening public, our first public hearing regarding the budget is…”

“Thank you, Jose. Thanks for joining us today. I appreciate you being here. And thank you for pointing out the benefits of switching over to the new vendor. In addition to the benefits that we see, are there any concessions that we're making? Are there anything that we're giving up?”

“Thank you. The timing of this is a bit precarious because although we don't know what is going to be coming back from taking a look at our processes and if there are significant gaps that are brought to light, and we're about to go into our budget, then what could there be? Are we considering what unexpected costs that we can have? And of course, when we're planning financially, we don't have a crystal ball, we don't know. But what we do know is that we're having a third set of eyes take a look at how we're doing things. If there are large inconsistencies or a significant delta, Are we…”

“Thank you. I also wanted to bring up when we're taking a look at salary bands, I'm so proud of the benefit package that as a city, we're able to provide for our employees. It is robust it is generous it takes care of our employees so well again i can't i don't know if i could possibly find the words to explain just how proud i am when we take that into consideration with that being said i think then when we're looking at whether or not our pay is over or under market or if we're on par that's a piece that i don't know if and i'd love some clarity if we do take in consideration our total…”

“Thank you. Teresa, so wonderful to have you. I hope that your transitioning and onboarding has been going well. Yes. Because you read along just like you've been here for quite some time. Great. Welcome. Glad to see you, that you're here. As you were reading, I was trying to follow along inside of the table. If we could have just some high-level slides that was pointing to some of those great points that you were calling out. This way, it's just a little bit easier because there's a lot of great work that you've put into this report. And I'd love to see it kind of high level. And then also,…”

“Thank you. Again, thank you to Redmond Police Department for inviting us out to participate in National Night Out. This was another year of just really great conversations and both participating and participating in community with our community members throughout various neighborhoods, which was fabulous. For most of the month, I was out of town and not available. However, the first week actually and this past weekend was pretty busy. Several conversations around tenant protections as one of the council members who is a renter that lives in downtown Redmond. I get to walk around and be in…”

“Way back, seemingly four weeks ago, seemed like last year, Council Member Forsyth and I attended the Disability Board meeting where not only did we take care of regular business, and we also discussed some language changes as well to make sure that we're continuing to be diligent and make sure that our retirees are taken care of.”
