When you leave me up at these memories, you get ahead. So you remember me standing in a nice dress, staring at the sunset, babe, red lips and rosy cheeks. So you'll see me again, even if it's just prints and remember me. Stay in the nice dress. We have traveled to see. Exalted in the sea. Yes, hurry, hurry, two seats. Good evening, everyone. Welcome to the Tempe City Council regular council meeting. I remember what is called order. Council meetings can be watched in real time via Cox Cable Channel 11 and at Tempe.gov slash Tempe Eleven. Members of the public may also attend the meeting virtually through Microsoft Teams. The City of Tempe is using the open meeting system for council meetings, which includes electronic public speaker sign-up. If you wish to speak during tonight's meeting, you may use your smartphone camera to scan the QR code displayed on the monitors or signs in the council chambers. Select the regular council meeting, select the agenda item or public appearances period you wish to address, and enter your name, city, and state of residence to submit your request to speak. If you need assistant signing up, please see one of the designated staff members at the back of the council chambers who can enter the information for you. If you submitted the city's online comment court card before the meeting and requested to speak, you do not need to sign up again. Your name has already been added to the appropriate speaker queue. Please know that as the presiding officer, I have the discretion to introduce items out of their regular order. If you would like to speak on a matter not listed on tonight's agenda for discussion or legal action, there are two opportunities to speak during public appearances. Item number six near the beginning of the meeting, and item number ten near the end. When signing up, please select the public appearances period during which you would like to speak. You may speak during only one of the two public appearances periods. If you would like to speak on a non-consent agenda item, select that specific agenda item when signing up. Please note that if you speak about an agenda item during public appearances, that is your opportunity to address that topic. You may not speak on the same topic again when that agenda item is considered later in the meeting. We acknowledge that Tempe lies on the ancestral land of the native peoples who have lived here since time immemorials. The ancestral land of the author empty Bosch stretches far beyond the boundaries of our city. The landscape is sacred to them. Embodied cultural values that are integral to their identity and way of life. The author continue to maintain a deep spiritual connection to this land. All right, thank you very much. We're now going to go to item number four, which is meeting minutes. There aren't any city council meeting minutes ready for approval under item four A. So I'm going to move on to item four B, which is acceptance of board commission and committee meeting minutes. I'll be assisted this evening by Councilmember Keating. Thank you, Mayor. I move the accepts item uh four B one through four. Okay, it's been moved by Councilmember Keating. Uh, do I have a second? I have a second by Councilmember Garland. Any further comments or questions? All right. Please vote on item four B. And that item passes seven to zero. Next up, item five, report to the denouncements. Uh, I've got a few here that I'm gonna do up front. Thank you, Jason. All right, first up, item 5A1, National Crime Analysis and Intelligence Day proclamation. Want to see if the Crime Analysis and Intelligence Center team of the Tempe Police Department will like to join me up front.
