Councilman Cleusman would you like to give the invitation? Yes. We're able to be here, Lord. Thank you. Especially in shoes with the place with Amen. Alright, let's see here. Philum, would you like to leave the Sydney fled, please? One nation. Under God. Individual. I will call the council meeting for the ninth reporter. Praise and recognition. Alright, one thing I want to bring up, I want to give kudos to the employees in City Hall. It was brought up to Veronica that we need to check on claimed property with the treasurer's office. And she was like a bulldog board. She was all over. And I picked up a check today for uh $4,875 in some odd sense. Treasurer Pike came down and presented it to us. And so that was that was a good job. They actually found a check for me for $59 and some odd sense. They didn't bring it down. I don't know. So anyway, any other praise and recognition? Yes. Just a quick sort of need or praise the recognition, but remembrance. Uh Ron Hall is a longtime member down from Sonic Lodge, but more importantly, as a member of City Council for a while, passed away. Just want to honor all the things that he did on City Council around that. Was that the gentleman that lived in Florida? I believe so. I want to uh praise the Fairs and Festivals Committee for train days. It was very good. Becky and I went down there and I loved the music. It was bluegrass, and uh so I was right at home. And uh also Debbie Keener's a parks people for the story walk uh celebration, one year celebration, am I correct? Uh guys, that's the best kept secret around. You go out there, those kids can walk along that walk and trail, and by the time they get to the end of the trail, they read a whole book. And it, you know, not only is it increasing their reading skills but and their enjoyment for reading, but they're getting some exercise while they're doing it. So that is a great thing that we have developed. Debbie and they've developed here in uh St. Alvin. Any other praise and recognition? All right. Uh approval minutes from City Council September 8th, 2026. Second. Questions of discussion or changes. All in favor say aye. Opposed, nay. Motion carry it's all business. Nominees to speak to and council vote to fill the vacancy award five. Uh I saw Roger.
