Any discussion? All right. I see none. Do you want to send that one to committee, or just follow up?
So always an option to follow up with the administration, and then if there's something more concrete, we can send that item to committee, or if there's no movement, you can submit another item, and then you can put that to committee to sort of force the issue. But I think it was Council Member McLaughlin, if I remember as president, who reminded us that not everything has to go to committee, and we can always do follow-up ourselves. So in that spirit, very well, that will be approved. Next item.
Any, that's all okay? All right, so that item's approved with a copy to finance. Next item.
Here, I got the eject button, there you go.
Councilor Saeed, do you want to take up the next three together, related items?
So we're gonna send a copy of things to one committee. Yeah. So, and I think that given that's the folks who can actually do the thing that is asked for will be appearing in Traffick Park, and that seems like the best place for it. That said, certainly the school committee can take up any item they'd like on their own, and to the degree that there's, you know, related issues that are somewhat that we could put a separate item in for that conversation. But in the interest of getting these in front of the people who can make the thing happen, Traffick Park is the place for it. Sounds good to…
I apologize. We have 4, 7, 8, and 9 before us right now. All right. On those three items, any further discussion? All right. Seeing none, those are approved with a copy of traffic and parking. Next item, Madam Clerk.
Very well. Counselor Link would like to sign on. Any further discussion? Do you want that to go to committee then for that follow-up discussion?
All right, approved to copy traffic and parking. Next item.
Any further discussion? No, that item's approved to copy traffic and parking. Next item.
Further discussion? All right, so this item is specific to the cost, so I think it's appropriate, and I saw the chair of finance nod his head, having to take that one up. Certainly, once that question is sort of resolved or fully discussed, then I would anticipate that perhaps a separate item to move forward, and as the good councilor at large noted, there would be potential other aspects, maybe a different committee would be appropriate for that. That sounds like the right place to have a talk about money. So seeing no further discussion, then that item is approved with a copy to finance.…
Okay, that item is approved with a copy of traffic and parking. Next item.
Any other discussion? All right. So you want to put that one committee?
I won't editorialize. I have views on that as well. All right. Madam Chair, you're going to have a full agenda at the next traffic and parking meeting. That item is approved with copy of traffic and parking. Next item.
Councilman, do you want to speak on this one?
If only we knew anyone who was going to be up there and might be able to do something about this. Council, you and Kevin.
Councilor Scherzer would like to sign on. Councilor Hart would like to sign on. Councilor Saeed. Councilor Wheeler. All right. That item is approved. Does that request a communication to delegation?
Other discussion? Councilor Wheeler would like to sign on? All right. That item is approved. Next item.
Any discussion on the report? All right, seeing none, that puts two items before us for roll call votes. Is that correct, Madam Clerk? That is correct. All right, 6A8 is the first, I believe.
All right, very good. Next item is 6D, I believe.
Any discussion? All right, seeing none, that item is approved. Next item.
That is referred to Legislative Matters.
All right, so Council Wheeler moves to take up, together with the item that was just read, the rest of that list and waive the readings of the rest of that list and refer them to Finance. Any discussion? All right, very well. Those are referred to finance.
So, Councilor Wheeler, I'd like to wave the rules to take up 7.9, 7.10, and 7.11 together. Seeing no objection, Madam Clerk, would you read those in?
Any discussion? All right, no seeing none. And those three items are approved. We don't need a roll call for any of those. Small little dollars, right? All right, very well. And the next item.
