Thank you, Chair.

You have a quorum.

Thank you.

Moving on to agenda item two.

This is a reminder that today's meeting is being held in compliance with the open meeting law.

With that reminder noted, let's move on to agenda item three, public comment on action items.

Comments during this portion of the agenda must be limited to matters on the agenda for action if you wish to be heard.

Come forward and give your name for the record.

The amount of discussion as well as the amount of time any single speaker is allowed, may be limited.

Is there anyone who wishes to speak at this time?

Seeing none, we will close.

We will close.

Now, is that the Roberts rules of order?

I think that's what the agenda says.

It's more of a modified version of the Roberts Rules of Order.

But there's benefits to having parliamentary procedures.

Some of the benefits is transparency and courtesy for all, right?

We're all going to take turns, we're all going to be civil.

It maintains an order and makes sure that you follow your agenda, which you guys are doing well at.

And of course, it's the majority rules.

But it also gives protections for rights of all the members, including the minority.

So let's talk about some basic principles.

As you know, because I heard you guys talking about it, your quorum, you have to have a quorum before you have a meeting.

Do you have a you have to have a quorum before you have a meeting?

And your quorum is 11.

The best way to figure this out is you take half the numbers of on your body and you add one.

So in this case, that's 11.

Um, all your voting members have equal rights and privileges and obligations to your meetings, and no person should speak until recognized by the chair, which so far I've seen you do pretty well.

Um personal remarks or side discussions during the agenda, we we prefer you not to do that.

And you have to keep in mind at all times you are creating a permanent record.

So not only what you say in your microphones, but your actions will be forever memorialized in an audio and a video recording of these meetings.

Um we ask that you only do one question at a time.

Um and only one person at a time should have the floor.

So just to clarify roles, um, the chair is the person that runs the meeting.

So Chair Wynne is the one that really controls the speed at which the meeting runs and who speaks.

Um she introduces the business in order per the agenda, and then she's the one that actually recognizes the speakers.

Um by following these procedures, it really keeps us focused on the agenda items.

Um, and it really uh makes sure that we're not having any sideboard conversations or we're um talking really off the agenda.

She'll also put motions to a vote, and you guys have already demonstrated that this morning.

She'll call for um all those in favor, and as you you vote, you'll say aye.

She'll ask all those opposed with a nay, and then she will read off the results of the vote.

And I believe you all have displays up there, you can see how you vote as well.

So just to clarify the additional roles, all the rest of you are members or participants, and so before you speak, you have to be recognized by the chair before speaking.

Um, then be sure that you turn your mics on and off.

Um, and you need to state your name clearly for the record, which so far you guys are doing wonderfully.

I saw that you all did that.

Um, all your comments should be addressed to the chair.

So, what I mean by that is sometimes you may have one of your uh fellow members will make a comment and you'll just be itching to respond to that person.

That's one of the things that we don't want to do.

We want you to, when you rec respond, you need to respond through the chair or to the chair.

So you can start that off with Madam Chair or Madam Wynne, and you would make your comments.

Um, again, no sidebars, no comments.

Um if you are talking amongst the two of you, I will tell you that these microphones are really sensitive and it may pick you up.

And again, we can't modify that audio recording, so it's forever in history what's being said, but we also want to make sure that you do use your mics uh as you should appropriately.

Now there's general rules of debate for small boards.

Um, all items um that are relevant to the agenda are posed for questions or discussions.

No member should speak more than twice to each item.

Now let me explain that.

Um this is really helps with the flow of the agenda.

I know a lot of times the chair will read off an item, one person will speak, and then somebody wants to debate them.

What you don't want to do is necessarily debate back and forth.

You really want to kind of um make your uh comments kind of concise and in one comment.

But if you do need to rebuttal or or speak again, you really need to, in fairness, make sure that everybody else has already had their first turn at speaking.

Um, it just kind of prevents somebody from being like a microphone hog and just speaking constantly.

Um that's one things that uh sometimes you'll find if the chair isn't control in the meeting, that might happen.

Um and debates, of course, um when you debate an issue, it's not personal, so it's not really about the person or um their personality conflict if you have one.

It's really about what's been said.

That's what you want to discuss and debate.

And I'm gonna remind you remember you're creating a permanent record.

So it's really important that what you say gets picked up by these microphones clearly.

Um what you don't say says a lot.

Um I don't think you guys will really be taking abeyances in most of your votes, but sometimes people obey on an item they don't feel like they want to vote.

If you don't speak up and take a vote, it still counts, right?

Um, by not saying something, it's almost as important as if you do say something.

So do remember that this is a permanent record and it can't be modified.

And that is it.

So far, I think you guys are doing wonderfully.

You seem to have it all down.

Do you have any questions for me?

No.

All right, thank you and enjoy your meeting.

Thank you for the presentation, Dr.

Holmes.

Uh well, we're gonna be moving on to agenda item six.

Agenda item six is a discussion regarding establishing participation expectations and a meeting engagement structure.

Before we open this for discussion, I just want to emphasize the importance of participation in meetings like this.

As members of the youth leadership advisory council, we're here to represent youth voices, and that only works if we're actively engaging, speaking up and sharing our um perspectives.

Every single one of you bring um a different experience, and those contributions are what make our work meaningful.

And so with that, I'll open the floor for discussion on how we can promote more effective membership member involvement during our meetings.

Would anyone like to suggest an idea?

No, okay.

Well, I'll just go ahead and throw um throw an idea out.

Um, so I was thinking we could use a simple round robin for bigger discussion items.

And so after uh after the topic is introduced, we'd go around and give everyone about a minute to share a thought, um, ask a question or even just agree or pass.

And that way I feel like it'd be easier for everyone to participate without feeling pressure to jump in or talk over each other.

Does anyone have any um comments?

Go ahead.

Um, member Burton speaking, I agree.

I think um even having like maybe like a minimum of one speaking turn per meeting would definitely benefit us all so that we're all engaging correctly.

Thank you.

Does anyone else have a comment to add?

Any suggestions, even okay.

Thank you all.

Thank you for the input.

Uh, I think seeing that we have no further comments, we're gonna conclude discussion on this item and move on to the next agenda item.

Agenda item seven is a report by youth as solutions participants regarding current work group activities, priority focus areas, and youth-led recommendations.

We'll hear from each work group starting with youth and teen driver safety, followed by youth and team pedestrian safety, and finishing with youth and teen bicycle and scooter safety.

So at this time I'm gonna have member Collin and Member Burton present their what they've um accomplished member Cohen for the record.

Uh I believe um uh Dr.

Malic has a little bit more information about this uh in terms of the actual um structure of the Youth of Solutions program moving forward.

Um if Dr.

Malic, you want to say a few things if that's possible.

I know you have the complete information about what all of the subcommittees are doing as a whole.

Uh I know you're uh you have all the information about that.

So if you want to share more in depth, because I know you have um you have all the relevant um information regarding that.

Thank you.

Um, Madam Chair, um it Dr.

Tammy Malinch, Youth Development and Social Initiatives Director for the Record.

Um, I would request that we go ahead and do the other work groups and get their updates first, because we have some updates for sure, and then I will share the other opportunities at the conclusion if that's at the pleasure of the chair.

Sure.

So we just want to move on to the next group, other two groups.

Got it, okay.

Thank you.

So we're gonna hear from youth and team pedestrian safety group.

Member McNallon, you have the floor.

Thank you, madam chair.

Member Car Member McNallen for the record.

So as the youth pedestrian uh safety committee leader, uh, I've conducted several articles, several days of research and read several articles, watched several videos, and established that phones and distractions are the main cause of fatalities and injuries and incidents.

Uh through this research, I filled out the budget plan that was due in December.

Uh my team was ill-informed, and that is my that is at my fault, but I did submit the reform into Google Classroom.

Uh, I don't know if that was fully counted or not, and I have not had access to a computer, unfortunately, to figure out if I could solve that problem.

I don't know if our budget plan was accounted for.

I did work on that individually.

Uh, and I believe I put my hard work and effort into it with all of the research I conducted, and I do believe that this is a very important issue, and we as a team need to be able to solve it.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Member McNellan, thank you for your dedication to this group.

Are there any additional participants from this group who would like to add to the report?

Okay.

Well, now move on to the youth and teen bicycle and scooter safety group.

Member Menales and Member Sai, you have the floor.

Member Sai for the record.

So uh member Minalez and Minales and I led the e-bike and thank you, sorry, and e-screater committee, and we basically did research on the issue to better understand it, and we made a bunch of different changes.

First, we made um we set up a meeting with Commissioner Justin Jones from Clark County, and he led e-bike safety ordinances in that area.

So we talked to him and discussed with members of our team to kind of get a better idea on the issue.

And we came out, we came up with several activities on and solutions that we can implement, including safety education assemblies at local schools to increase public awareness.

And we're gonna be creating flyers, posters, pamphlets, and social media posts about the issue.

And thank you to Dr.

Malik for your your help.

And with your help, we received a thousand dollar grant for the project.

So that's a big accomplishment.

And I hope a lot of you can join us.

Thank you so much.

Congratulations on your accomplishment.

Are there any other participants from this group who would like to add to that report?

Thank you all to all the participants for your updates.

I believe Ms.

Mallich had something to add.

Thank you.

Um again, Madam Chair, uh, Dr.

Tammy Malich again for the record.

Um to the points that have already been made.

Um couple of things that I would point out.

Um the grant is very specific and has very specific deadlines and requirements.

And so um those requirements and deadlines have to be met, or we lose funding, or we lose the ability to continue to participate.

And so I've been directly communicating with the leads of each of the three work groups, and um have not necessarily always gotten great responses in some cases or any responses.

Um the re the request or requirement was that each of the work groups send me their project plan and budget, and I gave them all of the um information and questions outside of the document with the um description that I would then compile it because it's one grant, it's not three separate grants.

Um member um Cy and Member who is your co-chair psy member.

Member Minalez.

Yes, um, thank you.

And um member Bulware both provided me with a project plan and a budget.

Mender member Mackinellen did respond.

Um, she entered her information directly into Google Classroom, but nobody from Youth Us Solutions has confirmed that they have it, and it's a really tricky um.

I've entered things in there myself, and they don't have them.

So I don't doubt that that happened because that's a pretty common problem with Google Classroom, or a common problem I'm experiencing as well with Google Classroom.

I did submit the the combined project plan and budget from the two work groups, and that as member SI mentioned, we did get uh confirmation email from Youth Us Solutions.

And that, as member Sai mentioned, we did get a confirmation email from Youth Us Solutions.

And I really want to commend the teams that did work on it because not only did we receive the confirmation that we got the grant, we had no edits, and every other group that submitted this grant had edits and revisions required, which are due by January 23rd.

We were the only project that did not require any edits or revisions.

And the feedback we got was that it was very well written, very um explanatory and put together in a very professional way.

I did not wordsmith it.

Um I literally took the information by the two groups and combined it and made it flow into one.

So kudos to the young leaders that submitted that.

Um moving forward, I I then sent a confirmation email to all of the leaders again to say here's what I received, and so here's what I submitted.

Um it is the intent moving forward that anybody who wants to remain involved in this.

Um is really on pedestrian and e-bike and e-scooter focus based on the project plan and the budget that were submitted and approved.

We can't edit it at this point.

So anybody that would like to remain committed to this work may continue and join the leadership that is already in place.

Um we have a whole plan though that has already been approved.

So it would be with the understanding that you would be carrying out the expectations of the grant.

I would mention that there are two other opportunities that member Sai, I know was on the um January gathering because I saw her name on there.

Um, I'm not sure if anyone else was on there, but I definitely saw her.

They also mentioned two other opportunities that get um some good uh press around the project, but also have opportunities for additional awards, uh financial awards, and additional opportunities for young people in leadership roles.

One is to write and share an op-ed around our project, and the other one is to create a doc-a-thon, a documentary.

So I'll be reaching out to the leadership again today that shares kind of the timelines and the information.

Again, we have to apply for those opportunities.

They're gonna pick 10 groups to move forward, and the young people will get specialized training and how to make a documentary, and they will be entered into a global filmmaking competition with other youth leadership around the world.

And ultimately, um, some teams actually get the opportunity to travel and share their documentary.

So I'll be reaching out to all the leaders.

Um, if you are not part of the group that you you didn't raise your hand prior, but you would like to be involved, please see me at the conclusion of today's meeting, and I will add you to the email list.

Those of you who are on my email list, if you are no longer interested or able based on your schedule to participate, then certainly let me know that and I'll remove you.

But otherwise, I'll continue working with the small group on the grant.

And again, in closing, I would just say kudos to the young leaders who put together such great information, took initiative, have met with elected officials and have a whole proposal.

Um they did an outstanding job, and so I'm really excited to see what they're able to do to increase teen safety.

And I have one final opportunity that that is involved in this.

Part of the project plan includes the ability to sit on a safety panel at the mayor's annual um principal appreciation luncheon that is in February.

So I'll be reaching out about that opportunity as well.

Thank you.

Thank you to all the participants and Ms.

Mallich for your updates.

Also, just wanted to add leaf for agenda item 10.

If you would like to, or if you were interested in joining the one of the youth the solutions group, you'd have the option too for that agenda item.

And so moving on to agenda item eight, it is a discussion regarding the youth leadership advisory councils public outreach and engagement strategy, including coordination with city staff for appropriate communication channels.

At our last meeting, we discussed several ideas for outreach, including creating Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook accounts to reach different age groups and working with council members to amplify messages.

Members also suggested using themed content like Member Cohen's Bet on Youth strategy to make posts engaging.

And also staff guidance was that all social media accounts would be managed through city staff to ensure proper coordination.

So with that, I'll open the floor for any discussion, any ideas.

Member McNallen for the record, I do believe that if we create an Instagram account, that would be very on teen target and we could get a lot of the Las Vegas Valley community in the city of Las Vegas interacted with us and what we're doing and what's going on through these public meetings so they can attend in person or they can voice their concerns or et cetera.

But I do believe that having that Instagram account having that, but also having the Facebook account for parents would be incredible so they can keep up with also what we're doing and the concerns of you know the youth in the Las Vegas Valley.

Thank you.

Thank you, Member McNellon.

Go ahead.

Member Castro.

I also think having a TikTok account would be very important because a lot of teens are on Instagram, but a lot more are on TikTok.

And with those short videos, you can get more information out about what is going on.

So I think a TikTok could be very important.

Thank you.

Would anyone else like to add a comment?

Oh, go ahead.

Through you, Madam Chair.

Um to those two points.

After the last um Y LAC meeting, the conversation around social media came up.

So I have reached out to the city social media team and ask that they create a TikTok, Instagram, and X account for what City of Las Vegas accounts for the YLAC leadership.

And as soon as they get those up and running, then I will work with you, Madam Chair, to um if you have a small group that wants to kind of manage that.

Um I did ask that they be have user IDs and passwords that I have access to so that if as membership changes, as officers change, we can continue to get into the account.

But I have reached out to the social media team to create city um verified and city approved accounts on all three of those social media platforms.

Thank you, Ms.

Malich.

Would any other member like to add?

Go ahead.

Um, Member Burton speaking, I also do believe that having like the teens participating within the social media accounts would be very important as well, just so other teens within the valley can connect with us on that level and remember that we aren't only people of the city, but we are also teens as well.

Thank you.

Thank you, Member Burton.

Would anyone else like to add a comment?

Okay.

Thank you all for the discussion.

Seeing that we have no further comments, we will conclude agenda item eight and move on to the next agenda item.

Agenda item nine is a discussion regarding finalizing youth leadership advisory council public outreach events.

At our last meeting, we talked about several potential leadership and community engagement opportunities, including food drives, school supply drives, tutoring, and other outreach activities across all wards.

Some specific ideas include partnering with Scouting America to provide service opportunities, organizing a Christmas food drive, collaborating with the Clark County School District and local community partners to maximize impact, promoting road safety through Teen Safety Day, hosting a sports equipment drive, and including a resource booth at events to share information with youth in the community.

Today we'll focus on finalizing which events or platforms we want to move forward with and clarifying next steps for implementation.

I'm gonna go ahead and open the floor for members to share the thoughts, suggestions, or any updates uh regarding these events and outreach.

Member Mac Allen for the record, I do believe that uh since we are doing youth as solutions for the safety, I do believe Teen Safety Day would be a great idea and great uh opportunity for us and our leaders on the Youth of Solutions Committee can speak or anyone can get involved, and I that would be a great idea to get our name out there and show that we are very committed to our what we do.

Thank you.

Thank you, Member McNallen.

Would anyone like to advocate for any of the specific ideas we talked about last meeting?

Um, Member Manales speaking.

I know that there is a youth teen traffic safety day, but I'm pretty sure it's closer in the summer.

So maybe like a group of us that is in the leaders of the safety would go and um like kind of like advocate for our group and basically like show what we're doing and maybe do like uh demonstration or something like that.

Thank you, Member Manales.

Would anyone else like to add comment?

Um, just Member Burton speaking.

Um, just adding on to like I do like the idea of a food drive, just because I feel like that's one of the ideas we have that isn't necessarily seasonal, so not necessarily like Christmas or back to school or anything.

I feel like a food drive could be something that we could implement somewhat soon rather than something seasonal.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Would anyone else like to add a comment?

Oh go ahead, Member Cohen.

Member Cohen for the record.

Um I know that we're in the middle of the school year, but as um as kids, I know we value the importance of school supplies as you know, it's such a big factor in our day-to-day.

And I think if we also incorporated something like a back to school drive or raising money for school supplies or doing anything like that, I think that's gonna be super important because we're directly helping people our own age and getting them on the right track to start their school year.

And um, even though that is sort of like a seasonal thing, more like an August um August month sort of activity.

I think that even if we do decide to do it in August or year round, it can still make a pretty big impact on people in the community.

Thank you, Member Cohn.

Ms.

Me.

Sheena Judy Mitchell for the record.

I love Ethan's idea.

Um I would say that uh between um Dr.

Malik and I, we will work with the council offices because each and every one of them typically does some type of back-to-school uh fair or school supply drive where they supply it to their schools so maybe you guys can join forces with your respective wards and assist them.

Uh, some wards even do uh mid-year drives, so like around January, different events they're handing out school supplies to their um the schools and their wards, or just something to think about, and we can actually reach out to them and let them know that that's something you guys mentioned and are interested in here.

Thank you, Miss Mitchell.

Would anyone like to add go ahead?

Um member McNal speaking.

To go off of that, yeah, to do a mid-year um drive for I know like a lot of teachers now they're running out of supplies because it's already halfway through the year, so just doing that and basing it like off of the teachers more than like the students.

Thank you, Member Manales.

Anyone else at this time would you like to add a comment?

Go ahead.

Member Maservi for the record.

I know this was talked about earlier, but the idea of assemblies is huge because that reaches a lot of children and of all ages in school.

So I feel like we should really take that opportunity and get those assemblies finalized and organized.

Thank you for your input.

Would anyone else, any other member would you like to add a comment?

Agenda item.

Okay.

Oh, sorry, go ahead.

Sheena Judy Mitchell for the record, I was going to um piggyback off a member Maservy.

Um, when you guys do these assemblies, um, a good thing to do would be to get your peers in here during your meeting so that you're talking and working with them through the council meetings that you guys are hosting.

So when you're doing these things, giving them an option, or maybe thinking of creating like a link or something on some of these social pages that we spoke about earlier where they can uh opt in to coming to the meetings, like, hey, if you have any concerns, please show up here.

So when it's public participation, you actually have your peers sitting here giving it to you from their own um experiences and lenses.

So just something to think about, maybe coming up with something creative to start getting them here, maybe your BSUs, your um other clubs on campus and things like that.

Thank you.

Thank you, Ms.

Mitchell.

Would any other member like to add a comment at this time?

Member Sai.

Member Psy for the record.

Uh I just want to branch off of what member Minalez and Member Servey said about you know having like education assemblies.

I think um for our youth of solutions committee, we're gonna be doing safety education assemblies uh between March and April.

So I think that could be an idea that um we could have separate committee for and just commit to having that as a focus for as a goal as a project.

Thank you, Member Sai.

Anyone else?

Okay.

Well, I think that was a very productive conversation.

We're gonna go ahead and conclude the discussion of agenda item nine and move on to agenda item 10.

Agenda item 10 is a discussion regarding identifying youth leadership at advisory council members for the youth uh solutions, teen safety work groups.

This is an opportunity for members to express interest in participating in the work groups focused on teen driver, pedestrian, and bicycle scooter safety.

Member leads for each group have already been assigned, but if any additional members would like to join or add input to these groups, now is the time to share.

Additionally, if any of the group leads would like to briefly promote the groups or highlight their focus areas, this would be the perfect time to do so.

Would anyone does anyone oh McNalen?

Member McNallan for the record.

So I am one of the leads for the pedestrian safety, and what we do is we research how and why teens keep getting injured or fatalities happen due to pedestrian uh incidents.

So we would be researching and going in depth and trying to figure out a problem solution and probably with member Psy, we would be going, like Member Sci said, we would be going into schools around March or April with a safety panel and telling all these teens how to stay safe.

Thank you, Member McNallan.

Would and or would any of the leaders from the youth slash teen driver safety or bicycle slash scooter safety like to advocate for the group?

Okay.

Would anyone be interested in joining any of the three groups?

Yeah, go ahead.

Sorry.

Member Sai for the record.

So um adding on to what member McIn Allen said.

We are planning like a majority of different events.

Just want to go into more detail about that just to see, like, just for members get an idea what of what they're gonna be participating and help lead.

We're gonna be doing um flyers and pamphlets and social media posts.

We're gonna be creating um public awareness campaigns at local schools to spread the word and raise awareness.

We're gonna be having safety education assemblies.

That's definitely something we could add on to, like for traffic safety and um safety traffic safety in general.

We are going to be supporting community safety events and basically create awareness campaigns in the community.

Thank you, Member Sai.

Um would any of the leads from the driver's safety group like to advocate for their group.

No?

Okay.

Would anyone at the council be interested in joining any of the three groups?

Okay.

Seeing none, thank you to everyone who has shared.

That concludes discussion on agenda item 10, and we'll move on to agenda item 11.

Agenda item 11 is a discussion regarding topics for future agenda items.

Comments at this time should be limited to proposing future agenda items only.

We will not discuss the substance of the topics, and no action will be taken today.

Are there any items members would like to propose for consideration on a future agenda?

Member Cohen.

Member Cohen for the record.

I think for the social media, I think we have a really good foundation, and I think we all have the momentum going right now to make this something really good.

I think what we should do is like actually put something into into writing and create sort of like a calendar or plan this out for the next few months at least, or over like planned posts of what we want to do, create um like specialized um, you know, um, you know, any sort of posts that we want to do, any sort of videos we want to make, any sort of collaborations we want to have, anything that we think will benefit um the uh youth leadership advisory council social media presence and making a larger impact in the community.

So I think if we have an agenda item and actually finalizing starting to put some of this into motion and getting um getting the ground um going on this, I think that would be really good.

Thank you, Member Cohen.

Go ahead.

Member Castro speaking with the social media topic of being discussed.

I was wondering if we were are going to make a board of like who could be in charge of the social medias, like getting all the ideas together and kind of like finalizing that if we're interested in having a board or just all of us doing it, but I think having a board might be easier.

Thank you for your input.

Would anyone else go ahead?

Um, Member Burton speaking.

Oh, sorry.

Um, member Manol speaking, going back to the Teen Traffic Safety Day.

Um, I think it's really important if we put it into writing or making a group.

Um, it kind of goes along with youth as solutions with the e-bike and e-scooter safety.

But basically just making a group and making a plan of what we're gonna do on that day, because that's our main, like those are our main people that we want to get to is all the teens that go to it that day.

So just making a group, I feel like would be really important and useful.

Thank you.

Member Burton, I believe you had something to add.

Yeah, my apologies.

Member Burton speaking.

I was wondering if it would be possible to talk about or maybe um throw the idea out of doing a workshop for social media like posting.

Um like I was mentioning before, I think it would be really important for the people of the board to be putting uh effort into making the videos all together so that the teens can connect with us.

I was thinking about maybe a workshop day of all of us coming together and filming a plethora of videos so that we can sporadically post them since we don't meet up that often.

Thank you, Member Burton.

If I could just I'm sorry, did you Sheena Judy Mitchell for the record?

Um we can work with our social media team to get that going because that's what they do.

So um between Dr.

Malik and I, we can um definitely uh work through you, madam chair, to find out a good date and time, and maybe it would be it would be up to you guys as a collective, maybe for future agenda items.

Um, that could be a vote on a date and time.

Yeah, I feel like that's be a great idea.

Um, just wanted to throw another idea out there, uh, perhaps establishing meeting attendance rules and putting set rules into writing um of specific attendance for members.

This is Jillian Block Sagerbloom for the record, uh deputy city attorney.

There are some uh rules already established in the ordinance that was passed that um created the youth leadership advisory council.

I believe the yes, and in the bylaws as well.

Um there is an attendance requirement.

It's if they missed two and excuse Yes, thank you.

Uh so yeah, that's two unexcused absences uh would make you um subject to removal from the council if there are further um if there's interest in further um rules or specifications that could also be something that could go into the bylaws.

Thank you.

Thank you for the clarification.

But does anyone else have anything to add?

Go ahead.

Member side speaking.

So I think we have thrown a lot of good ideas out there.

I think what will be good is if each member like of our committee could choose like to focus and accomplish like a goal, for example.

The two main things that we kind of like are thinking about are social media, like social media posts and awareness, and then use the solutions and kind of like traffic safety and safety assemblies.

So maybe I know we can't take actions at this meeting, but a suggestion is that we could like each member could choose something that they want to focus in, kind of like different work groups within the council.

Thank you, member slide.

Does any other member have anything to add?

Oh, go ahead.

This is or member lasser for the record.

This isn't much of an agenda item, but I do like the idea that you mentioned earlier about round robin, and I think implementing that on certain or different agenda items next meeting would be a good idea to get input from everybody.

Thank you.

Um, I just wanted to add for future reference that whenever someone's trying to speak, just raise your hand a little higher because sometimes I can't see.

Okay, well, does anyone else have anything to add before I move on to the next agenda item?

Go ahead.

Member Ms Servi for the record.

So I think we've had a lot of great ideas said, but I think we really it's been said before, but we really need to emphasize taking action on all of these things because after this meeting, I don't really hear much about things, honestly.

So I would want to stay more in the loop and focus on actually taking action on the items we discuss.

And like that one group did the e-bike safety group.

They worked on it, they got the grant, which is amazing.

And I think we can do more things like that if we all work on it.

Absolutely.

Thank you for your input.

Does anyone else at this time have something to add?

Okay.

Thank you all for your participation.
