We're ready. All right. I will call this meeting to order. Before we get started, I will say we've got a kind of a lengthy agenda for me to read, and I haven't had a chance to read over it yet, so just bear with me if I fumble through it, but we'll get through it tonight. President, and you do have a quorum, sir. Thank you, sir. First on the agenda is the consent agenda, which consists of the approval of the October 19, 2026 City Council meeting agenda and the approval of the October 5th, 2026 regular council meeting minutes. Resolution number 2026 101901 through 05. I will entertain a motion to approve the consent agenda as presented. Motion to approve. Second. I have a second from Councilman Snowden.

The consent agenda passes unanimously. Moves us on into the mayor's report and comments. I have no report tonight, Council President. Thank you, Mayor. I see no proclamations. That leads us into the report by the city manager. Just uh a few things uh tonight from me, Mr. President. Um I had the opportunity to go to Long Beach, California last week. I returned yesterday where I represented Pelham, Alabama and the southern region of ICMA at the quarterly ICMA board meeting that was held in conjunction with the ICMA annual conference. We had over 5,500 people registered for the conference this year. Um I was there beginning uh year two of my three-year term. Uh incredibly energizing to be around my colleagues who have an incredible passion for public service. I just want to thank everybody on the council, the mayor and the city manager for supporting and encouraging my participation in that. Always very rewarding to be uh part of. And also wanted to just talk about some of our fall events here in Pelham. Fall is finally in the air and it feels glorious outside. Um I've had been waiting for it and it's finally here. Last week, as you know, we had national night out, uh, which was a great night. We had great weather out there. The police department did a great job putting that on. The fire department had a great presence out there and all the city departments and organizations that chipped in to make that a success. We thank them, uh particularly Church of the Highlands, uh, who fed everybody and Colonial Pipeline for providing the soft drinks. Uh some of this will be replicated in the announcements later on, but uh following is at the city park this Sunday from 1 30 to 4 30. Uh
