Call the meeting to order.

Tonight we have a representative from Girls Crout Girl Scout Troop 2472.

And would would you be so kind as to come forward and lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance?

And to the Republic for which it stands on the nation and under God.

Thank you very much.

You did a wonderful job, and you even had a police escort.

Real quick, if anybody is here for the uh ordinance on the parade, that's been removed from the agenda.

And it was published on the I think social media, but it has been removed.

So if they're here, you're here for that.

That is now gone.

Okay.

And we do have representative from Girl Scouts who would like to speak.

Thank you, Mayor.

Uh, my name is Brian Newberry, uh, the CEO of Girl Scouts Eastern Washington, Northern Idaho.

I just want to celebrate Eden here representing uh 3,200 Girl Scouts all across Eastern Washington, Northern Idaho.

We have over the past two months visited 16 different city councils across our vast territory.

You are our last, and uh we're there to celebrate the day of the girl, which was in the fall time frame.

And so Eden, who goes to Celtees uh this day is to celebrate you and to let you know that we want to hear your voice, because your voice makes the world a better place.

But I'm also here tonight to celebrate you, sir Mayor.

Uh Mayor Jacobson was the first mayor when I started as CEO seven years that opened up his heart and his council to my girl scouts.

Uh Jackie Livingston, who's a great service unit leader there, she's getting a little tearful myself, but uh herself, but I am too.

Uh you were the first one to give a gold award to recognize a Gold Ward Girl Scout in our council.

That's the highest award in Girl Scouting.

Um, to her daughter Jackie Livingston, and you also recognize Sierra Livingston, and you also made Sierra Livingston citizen of the day for her work here with the VFW.

So, Mayor, from start to finish, you've been there for Girl Scouts, so if you ever need thin mints, just let us know.

Uh we we gave him uh a thin man ornament because he is truly number one in our hearts.

So Mayor Jacobson, these Girl Scouts are actually number three in the country for Girl Scout cookies.

Uh last year um they had over 40,000 boxes donated to our troops and our first responders, and after the tragedy in Court of Lane over the fourth just before the Fourth of July weekend, they went on out and delivered 5,000 boxes of cookies to every northern Idaho first responder, including the great uh city of Post Falls as well.

That's what you all do is you support Girl Scouts, and in turn they support you to make the world a better place.

So Eden, God bless you and your Girl Scouts for all they do, and more importantly, God bless every one of these sir servants up here who are making our world better place.

Mayor Jacobson will never forget you.

You take care.

So hopefully we will get a number of applications for that position.

And in addition, there will be an opening on the urban renewal agency.

So if anybody out there has an interest, please feel free to uh stop by the city and submit a uh form with our wonderful clerk Shannon Howard.

Uh opportunities there, please take advantage of it.

And I guess I should have started by saying please note that all council members are present.

Um we do have a swearing in as opposed to swearing at.

It's time to swear in our new parks and recreation director.

Who is doing the honor?

Shannon Please raise your right hand.

Do you solemnly swear that you will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Idaho, and that you will faithfully discharge the duties of parks rec director of the city of Post Falls accordingly according to the best of your ability?

I do.

Congratulations.

Thank you, Chris.

Does that mean this is your last meeting, Dave?

Well, I will be a citizen next time.

You've been here for many of them, thank you.

Are there are there any amendments to the agenda other than the remove uh removal of that one ordinance?

Just the removal.

Just the removal of the parade ordinance.

And we do not need uh a motion for that.

No, it's just remove if we were adding anything to the agenda.
