  13. Okay, thank you all for being here tonight and sharing your thoughts and public comment. Always appreciate your taking time out to come to council meetings and to those who emailed and contacted us since our last meeting. Several of the comments were about the item that's going to come up a little bit later, so we'll address those comments then. And a few of the questions that were brought up were already answered by staff, and so pass on those, but thank you for asking them. I'm glad they were answered. I just want to reiterate how impressed I was with the kids from the youth and government…

  17. Okay. Everyone's running to the restroom. Okay. We have one report to council this evening. After staff's presentation, the city council will proceed with public comment. Speakers will be allowed to speak on the item at the conclusion of the presentation as long as the speaker has not spoken on the item during the first period of general public comment. Please be sure to submit your public comment card now as no additional public comment cards will be accepted once the comment period commences following staff's presentation. If you would like to participate in remote public comment for this…

  25. Thank you for the presentation. I have a few questions as well. Excellent, excellent work on the task force. I know it was a long time coming. A lot of great suggestions here. I'll have comments later on some of my thoughts on that. So generally speaking for the task force and moving forward, are there any plans on kind of keeping the group live or reconnecting or how to keep... keeping a finger on the pulse of what folks are thinking and following up after this task force, because the task force is technically completed, right? So what would be the next steps?
