Of the United States of America and to the Republicans, one nation, indivisible with liberty and good evening, everyone. Welcome to our September 3rd regular business meeting. The first order of business is the adoption of the agenda. Do any board members have any amendments during this time? Yes, madam clerk. There's two emergency items that need to be added to this agenda. I will have staff attorney uh Mr. Reed to clarify. Good evening. Um Mr. Chair, Mr. Vice Chair and Board members. It's actually uh three items. Two of them are requests for emergency edition. First is resolution 2024 216, which is a resolution authorizing Clayton County to enter into a parking holding agreement with North Center Productions Incorporated, providing for the terms and conditions under which Clayton County property will be used for the purpose of parking and catering. Um there's actually uh two uh resolution 2024 216 and 2024 217, both the same uh title. They're relating to two um parking agreements, one for the uh spivey splash water park and the other at 120 Smith Street. The reason why they're being brought as emergency items today is uh they are wishing to use those properties between September 6th through September 12th. And so by the time it comes back to this board, it have already been done. We could have waited till next week, but since we already can decide on that, you know, now we can get it approved if that's what the board's desire. And then the other issue is resolution 2024 218. Uh, this is a resolution authorizing the board of commissioners to order the removal of Dr. Richard Wright from the Clayton County Board of Health. This is an item on your agenda for today. It was discussed at the agenda meeting, it just was not included in your uh agenda. All right, I'm gonna make the motion to add all three of those items to the consent agenda as emergency items uh based on the explanation that staff attorney read provided us. Is there a second? Second. Any questions? Those in favor, aye.
