“Thank you, Madam Mayor. I do not see that my resident is here again today. So again, I would like to request that we hold this until October and we will make an effort through our office. Two weeks is plenty, I think. I think two weeks. This is the 7th of October. So we're talking about the 7th. Yes, ma'am. And that would be my motion.”

“Thank you. You had mentioned walkability. Can you give us an idea how close this is to the newly constructed parking garage downtown? Oh.”

“I just have one more question for staff. So is that considered part of an idea of walkability, having two blocks, two-way parking garage? Would that be considered walkable?”

“Thank you, Madam Mayor. And I agree with you. I like that we are moving into technology in this particular area that is going to positively impact communities, especially our urban communities and folks who happen to be living adjacent to high traffic areas where billboards are appropriate and freeways. Many people in this community, we were talking earlier and this is always in my mind, we are 80 to 90,000 units of affordable housing short in this valley. That means that regular people can't find and can't afford to take advantage of purchasing homes or living in homes that are in darkness…”

“Thank you, Madam Mayor, and thank you so much for meeting with me and, as I stated before, being thoughtful about the community in which you are doing business. And looking forward to you participating in some of our school outreach so that we can show young people in the community that there are small business opportunities and the things that they can do and just sharing that there's opportunity for our kids out there. So with that, I recommend approval.”

“Okay. So one of the things I see, because I'm in an area that has old neighborhoods, is that we'll often see streets that have the crack seal. And I don't know if you've driven down one in the brightness of the day, but that stuff reflects, right? And it makes it a little bit difficult to see how many times do we do this before we say it's time to slurry? Because I have gotten, well, on the campaign trail, when you're knocking on doors, these are things that people say. And I need to make sure that I have an answer because I'll be knocking on doors again soon. So how do I talk to my folks…”

“Thank you, Madam Mayor. Get my notes up here. All right. Thank you. On the 25th of August, we were with the Just One Project, and the mayor was with us, and we launched its Food is Medicine Farmers Market at Lorenzi Park. In partnership with Cleveland Clinic Nevada, TJOP provided families and community members with fresh, nutritious produce at no cost. I was honored to attend the event and speak with residents who came out to participate. Mayor Shelly Berkley was also in attendance and shared words of encouragement with those who gathered. We were pleased to welcome members of the Nevada…”

“Thank you, Madam Mayor, and thank you for coming in. I appreciate you all coming to my office. When we spoke, you had said that you would submit a landscape plan It didn't get into the packet for us to review before today's meeting. You had a code enforcement violation that is still existing because you were supposed to move your food truck. And the food truck, when I passed by there a couple of days ago, was still in the front and it was not supposed to be. So that hasn't been cleared up. I think that we might need to obey this until you can resubmit with the drawing with the doors to the…”

“Let me disagree. The food truck is supposed to be moved, period. Not based upon whether or not you get this. The food truck was supposed to be moved. Okay.”

“Yes, but it's in the wrong spot. It's in the wrong spot. So all that aside, listen, I want businesses in West Las Vegas, in historic West Las Vegas. We need businesses, and you provide a valuable service. But I think my colleague brought something to the conversation that's very important. As we are trying to rejuvenate, revitalize urban communities, first of all, this was in the county first, right? So what was done under county rules, that's why it's so close to the street. We're in the city now. Now it's part of the city. And for me, who've lived in this neighborhood almost 28 years, as we…”

“Thank you. I think we're looking at September the 16th. Is that what, Madam Clerk, is that the date that you, okay. All right, so I think an abeyance to the 16th would be appropriate if you all would agree. If you can please get in touch with my office as soon as possible. We can do a virtual call to sort of cut down on time. I still don't see a placement of the food truck that is in compliance where the food truck is supposed to be. You've got a van accessible parking spot, and we still have to deal with the issue of the bay doors facing Martin Luther King. So we have a couple things to talk…”
