“Council Member Amherst. I have a question. Correct me. So I see the bus station coming straight to here from Tacoma to here to Auburn Station. Is that correct? Yeah, the one in the map, you show it, the 497. 497? Yes.”

“OUT TO THE SOUNDER. OKAY. BECAUSE TECHNICALLY, USUALLY, WHEN YOU RIDE THE PASS, IT'S USUALLY HARD TO FIND PASSWORD, TAKE YOU, LIKE, FROM HERE, LIKE, FROM TACOMA STRAIGHT. SO YOU CAN HOP TO THE NEXT ONE, WHICH IF THIS WILL BE EVERY 10, 15 MINUTES, THAT MEANS THIS IS IMPROVEMENT RATHER THAN YOU WAIT hour or every 30 minutes. So I like the idea, like, there is no waiting. I ride bus, and they know the separation, even here in Auburn, between north and south, and you need to take a bus to get. So just to have the time, I think it's a good idea and a lot of improvement, because we have a lot of…”

“COUNCILMEMBER AMMER, START YOU OFF WITH THE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU. I WAS SCARED. YOU KNOW ME. IT'S THE ONLY PLACE I'VE NEVER BEEN THERE, THE FITNESS ROOM.

“I LIKE THE IDEA, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU SAID THERE IS A NEW DEVELOPMENT THEY WANT TO BUILD IT. BECAUSE I KNOW I SEE SOME AREA WHERE IS THE FRONT STORE EMPTY WHILE IF YOU GO NEAR A STREET LOWS, YOU CAN SEE THE FRONT STORE HOW FULL THEY ARE. LIKE THEY HAVE A GYM, THEY HAVE A CAFE. SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD BECAUSE THE PERSON WHO WILL BUY IT, THIS UNIT PROBABLY, YOU CAN HAVE FIVE UNITS AND YOU HAVE ONE AS A LIVE WORK AND MAYBE YOU WILL BE SMALL BUSINESS OWNER OR MAYBE YOU WILL BE THERAPY. I THINK WE SHOULD NOT, I THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD BECAUSE PROBABLY and work there, and different. I thought…”

I understand that clearly, especially if I want to post something, everybody vote yes and they vote no.

“July 22nd, I attend the Forensic Investigation Council meeting, two hour. I don't know why all my meeting usually two or three hours. So in the meeting, we review grant funding requests where we had to make decision where the funding need to go between sending staff for training or increase the evidence kit. I learned that take around 18 month to train and certified firearms lab examiner. I was shocked. It takes 18 months. So one of the proposal I ask why not the state will have overall class, like the police, to certify them. July 30th, I attend Fairfax Station Grand Break, the 38th and…”
