And Inky is here.

It is National Dog Day.

And so I have with me Inky, who is from our animal shelter, available for adoption.

So anybody uh anybody here could leave with Inky today.

Um we are oh, I want to thank also Daniel, who's in the audience from the Animal Care Center who's been helping us with Inky for the day.

We are going to start by reviewing our agenda for next week, September 1st, Tuesday, council uh closed session at 9 30 and open session at 1 30.

Brian ready go.

Uh hello everybody, and thank you for sharing the puppies.

That's nice.

Um, just for the review, I I went through it.

I did use AI to uh just because of my hands and eyes, I can't type this much anymore.

But it brings up some um what I consider sort of uh concerns and compliments.

And uh if you get a chance to read it, thank you.

Back to the committee.

Okay.

Do we have any comments?

I don't see any hands.

Is there a motion?

Second.

All right, let's vote.

Okay, agenda is adopted by vote of five zero, and we don't have a meeting on September 8th.

Happy Labor Day.

And there's three items on consent today.

Do you have public comment on consent?

Brian.

Again, um, because we only have a minute, and I actually do understand why that, so you won't hear me complain about only having a minute anymore.

I'll try to keep that promise.

Um support for the special meeting for the uh joint advisory committee with the um we uh the the treatment plant is pretty important.

I mean, we wouldn't have a very healthy city without the treatment plant, and sometimes that's that gets lost in the shuffle.

Uh also um I really did read over the gentleman that got nominated for the VEBA advisory committee, and I think that's an important committee.

Um I wrote something about that and the synopsis of the um public record.

I think sometimes this stuff gets lost.

I just wanted to really look at the indigenous and Chicano murals that we need to take care of our heritage.

Thank you very much.

Again, if you get a chance, please take a look at them.

Moving to our virtual speaker, Jordan.

Hi Jordan Moldow, District 3.
