How do we give us a hug All the meeting to order. Roll call is back here, Phillips. Here. Stricker. Here. McCarrigan. Here. Please join me in the Pledge of Allegiance. And for racial statements. For public information, a copy of the Nebraska Open Meetings Act is available for review. Notice of changes in the agenda by the city clerk. Additions may not be made to this agenda less than twenty-four hours before the beginning of the meeting unless cited under item five of this agenda. No changes. Okay. Citizens with business not scheduled on the agenda as required by state law, no matter may be considered under this item unless council determines that the matter requires emergency action. We have any emergency action. Okay, closed session. I didn't know that we were only gonna have three minutes to talk. And what I have to say is going to at least take five minutes. So I'm relying on number eleven six. Okay, we'll address that when we get to that one. Closed session. Items in the consent calendar are proposed for adoption by one action for all items unless any member of the council requests that an item be considered separately. Resolutions and ordinances. Well check that. Those are those have to have a conditional use permit because of the traffic they create. But those are the additional permitted uses. And this is uh one of one of the best examples that I found on our zoning map was the hospital area. This is where we have a mix of housing and uh offices, things of that nature. So it's kind of a buffer between offices and multifamily single family dwellings. So, any questions for Kevin? Has there been any um feedback from anybody that hasn't been here at the meeting? None. Make a motion to approve ordinance, all second. Do we have any questions or comments on the ordinance? Okay, McCare again, yes, stricker, yes, yes, Phillips. Yes.
