“Yes. Motion approves 4-2. All right, council, we've got seven minutes, and I'm going to recommend, unless there's something on this agenda that I'm bound to, item 16A be moved to the next agenda. Nothing's removed from consent agenda on 17, 18. We forego councilor communication. Councilor Sean's white paper will have to be moved. And do we have anybody signed up for citizens' comments at the end of the meeting?”

“I haven't seen the next one. I can't guarantee the next one, but I'll get you on the closest one. You have my word. And the last thing I'll just caution is maybe get together with the city attorney on that. I'm not sure what we can and cannot decide. Only we could hear and the planning board can. So that would be a good ask for the city attorney. Very good. Anything else, sir?”
