Meetings. We have a 15-minute public comment period, three minutes per person. Do we have anybody signed up on the list? Yes. Mayor looks like we have one person on the list, and it is Terry Hudson. All right. Come on up to the microphone. We're being on their side. I just wanted to take a moment and congratulate everybody that was re-elected. Uh Madullah, uh Katrina, and of course, our new council member, councilwoman Pletcher, and um Mayor. You've got good leadership with uh Mayor Calada. I think you all are what I consider our people's choices, obviously. So best of luck over the next two years. And I wanted to also thank Lori and Mike and wish I had been able to spend uh a little more time with you, but you guys came in two months just before I retired. So thank you for your service. And last but not least, I want to acknowledge our city clerk and deputy city clerk. This is municipal clerks week, and um clerks are being recognized worldwide, and I think their vital roles are very important in the city, and thank you very much and keep up the good work. And I wish I could do something about your long hours, but I can't thank you. There's there's no one else on the list. I don't know. Oh I forgot my address, so it's 3006 seven stagecoach circle. Milford. Thank you. Thank you. Mayor, I don't see anyone else on the list. I don't know if there's anyone online. Is there anybody online? There's nobody coming forward, Mr. Mayor. All right, we'll go ahead and close the public comment period. Thank you. All right, if everybody could please standrina. Bow your heads, please. Dear Heavenly Father, we are so honored to be able to gather here one more time, giving you thanks and praise. Lord, we ask you to be before the people here, Lord. Bless each and every person that is in attendance and look over the homes that they came from, Lord. Grant everyone traveling mercies to and from. I'm so grateful to God. Lord, I ask you to be with the new uh council members that are coming forth and be with the old, that they will be supportive of one another, and we will try our best to keep Milford first, Milford first, the residents first, who elected us to be elected us to represent them.
