“Thank you, Madam Clerk. Are there persons with the administration's desires of speaking at this point relative to the paper, the 39 papers, any person from the administration? Seeing none at this time, we'll proceed with a public hearing on those papers, items 44 through 82. Those persons present desires of speaking in opposition to those papers. If you would come forward and if you would line up in the aisle there. Desires of speaking in opposition. Seeing none, I will then invite those desirous of speaking in favor of those papers if you would begin to line up and come forward.”

“Thank you. I don't want to be redundant. I want to really go to what I think is the core of the matter here. There have been concessions. They've been codified. I'd like to go on and move that we approve these papers and that we schedule a special meeting to come back to discuss the amendments that you have gotten through the discussion with the vendor and codified so that we approve, so that we do not at all hold up our progress or opportunity, but at the same time, we are clear because I think the questions have been valid. Our city attorney and our council colleagues, I've I was talking on…”

“That is fine. The motions on the table to, I just want to be clear, to approve these items this evening so we can take advantage of the opportunity here, but to then also call a special meeting. to address the amendments that the administration has indicated have been responded to and codified, and then we'd have the opportunity to also ratify those. So, yes. Councilmember Gibson? Thank you. So discussion is where we're... on the motion.”

“Thank you. My motion takes seriously the concerns that have been raised by members. And had it not been shared that there were conversations with the entity such that concessions were made and there is codification of those concessions, that we would then also have opportunity to, in special meeting, go forward and understand, I would not be making the motion. but that is what I heard, the concerns, they're real, and that we've addressed those with the vendor, not necessarily 100%, but major ones of those. Is that correct, Mr. O'Donnell? Okay. Any other comment before, because we've now,…”

“The motion was to approve the papers on items 44 through 82. And then we went into discussion. And again, I'll be redundant. The only reason I've pushed to go on and approve the papers is because the concerns that were articulated, as I understood, were discussed with the entity, then codified, and we have the opportunity in special meeting to review those, not to 100%, but the majority of those items. MR. DONNELL, YOU MOVED OVER, SO I'M NOT ABLE TO LOOK DIRECTLY AT YOU. BUT THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING.”
