Um, so zones that you can uh that are open to public consumption of alcohol, we may have to amend some of our ordinances in accordance with that state law that is that that may pass.

Um with regards to fire, um we again have our quarterly Office of Emergency Emergency Management Report, our quarterly overtime report, fire loss and save, as well as the annual report.

Um we have a tentative junior fire chief ceremony, um, as well as three new contracts and agreements, um, one with EMAC Wildland, uh, one with the Department of Natural Resources Wildland Contract, um, and as well with the Department of Ecology grant acceptance uh in preparation for a potential second electric fire engine for the city of Redmond.

Um, with planning, uh we have updates on health through housing as well as the uh 27 through 28 funding recommendations for human services are gonna be presented to us.

Are there any questions?

Um Councilmember Forsyth.

Thank you.

Um just two things to that I'd like to flag to add to the uh work plan in quarter four when we're talking about the score jail.

We had last year sought to see if Kirkland would be open to receiving some of our um folks that that need that um holding.

So I want to make sure we don't just look at score that we actually add Kirkland to this.

Um I know they weren't ready last year, but maybe they'll be ready this year.

Um so I want to make sure we add that.

And then in September, I want to make sure we flag our ALPR contract with Flock and that renewal so we don't miss that opportunity to decide what we're doing there.

Wonderful.

Um Councilmember Kritzer.

Thank you so much uh for for working on this and and to the uh directors and chiefs for working on this as well.

Um so a couple of things.

One is I think uh I don't see on here um check-ins on the Thrive program and alternative crisis response.

Um we typically have have asked for that to be at least a quarterly check-in so that way we can hear how that's progressing.

And I think some of the past conversations, especially as we're scaling up some of our alternative crisis response, I think it'd be great to have that as an item um for us to check in on um both from police, but also it would be great to be able to hear from the other parts of the Thrive program that I think cuts basically across this committee.

Unless it's I don't know if it's showing up in planning and public work.

So my guess would be this is the right committee for that.

So um would love to see that um or throughout uh as as items that show up quarterly in here.

Um and and hopefully to get an update in the sooner part of the year.

I know we just brought on a new um co-responder, uh, and so it'd be great to be able to hear some of the results of how that's how that's going and also from TISA and her team.
