“Yes, sir. Okay. So we're talking about $600,000 here. My question is, is the $600,000 for the total three-year period or is it $600,000 for each of the three years?”

“So if I averaged it out, I could say 200,000 for the next three years, right?”

“YES, I DID WANT TO MAKE A FEW COMMENTS REGARDING THE MOTION EARLIER TONIGHT. We're in an executive session, and there were some items and issues discussed during that time that I feel need additional time for any possible resolution. So I'm trying to amend this motion in such that we can allow more time for those concerns that were presented to be addressed and are resolved, and if they're not resolved in a three or four month period, then I think we should reconsider this item. So that's one comment. Second thing, I'd just like to make note and go on record and express my objections to the…”

“L8, okay, L8. Yeah, no, I would concur with Councilman Reed. This has been under discussion for many years. multiple or at least a task force city staff has worked on it over and over repeatedly so I and much like the garage program I think we gave that was a 12 months and then we extended it another six months and I wouldn't expect this to be any different than that certainly we may have to make some adjustments or additional help after the 12 months I don't know where that'll be but I just think it might be worth moving forward here with L8. So with that, I would move to...”
