“No, it's a great question. Just letting the public know that there's a process, because without a budget line item, you can't approve it anyways, and there'll be a separate supplemental budget process on this. Good question. So I guess if there's no more questions, go ahead and open the public hearing. Sylvia, do we have anybody? I am in there. And I see nobody online. Anyone from the audience? No? No? We'll go ahead and close the public hearing at this point. Any additional discussion? It's our second reading, so I'll take a motion.”

“Anybody from the audience? No one? No one? And we don't have anyone online, so I'll go ahead and close the public hearing. This is the first reading. We don't have a whole council tonight, but is there any additional discussion before we close out and move to the next one?”

“Thank you. Any other? I would just add, too, I'm supportive. And it's one of the ways cities can raise taxes on tourism, basically, because we're not like other states like Washington that doesn't have income tax, but they have sales tax. So it's helpful in that regard. All right. Good. So we'll go ahead and move on to ordinance 2026-006, submitting the chapter 2.08095 of the Sherwood Municipal Code Youth Advisory Board. Kristen, where's Kristen? I am Kristen. She's on sabbatical. Your name is on the agenda. Ryan, are you going to be speaking on this one?”

“Yeah, I agree with everything you said, and I say this in a joking way, but I disagree with one thing. I already think we're on a great path, and I don't think we need to get on a better path, but I'm not saying it well. I'm making a joke. It's an amazing joke. It's an amazing joke. Thank you. Yes, Dan.”

“Awesome. Any other questions? All right. So we're going to, um, not completely lost Patrick or where we were. I'm sorry. I couldn't remember if you were past that or not. I'll go ahead and open the public hearing. Um, Sylvia, do we have anybody?”

“You want to come up? Awesome. I was hoping we'd get you at least one time. Yeah. Go ahead and, uh, um, just, uh, uh, state your name. You don't have to state your address. And, uh,”

“Awesome. Thank you. And thank you for serving on our board. All right. So I'll go ahead and anybody, let me check online. You know what, so we'll go ahead and close the public hearing. Do we have any additional discussion before we move on?”

“And just to put a fine point on it, we're not saying we're requiring it. We're just saying one spot is held out. So if no one applies, obviously we can't fill it.”

“September, that's right. We're skipping one. That's one double check. So first meeting in September. So we'll go ahead and move on then to Ordinance 2026-007, establishing a commercial public safety fee and adding Section 3.5 to the Sherwood Municipal Code. And David, looks like you're up again.”
