All right, hello, everybody, and welcome to the December first, twenty twenty five meeting of the Measure O citizens Oversight Committee. The committee is conducting this meeting from the City Council chamber. This meeting is being broadcast on TV and video streamed and can be viewed live or later on the city's website or on the city's YouTube channel. Will the commission secretary's secretary please call the roll? Chair Mulligan? Here. Committee member Fife? Here. Committee member Hildreth? Here. And Committee Member Smyers. Our next item is to determine chair and vice chair. We had a very rigorous election process that included, is anybody want to do it? Uh, who's willing to be the vice chair? Um, I've enjoyed being the chair. There's so many benefits from being the chair, like the quarterly meeting seeing the mayor. Um, but at the same time, I want to make sure if there's anyone who would like to be the chair, um, that we discuss it and talk about what anybody's wants are uh I guess I'd look to the vice chair first to see if you have interest in being the chair or in another leadership position. I have interest in being the chair. Just comment, I know it from the first our first meeting, you know, I indicated that it'd be nice to kind of rotate through that, like the city council does at some point, and I maybe at some point down the road. I've got a few more years before I need to go, you know, age off here. Turn off, I think is a better word. Um, and uh so I'm I have no interest at this point. Okay, and I'm willing to be vice chair, unless again, somebody else steps up and says they want to do it. So I think we'll need a nomination for, or they need to be separate for chair and vice chair, or can they be together? We can do them together. Is there a motion? I'll move so move that uh Jonathan be elevated to chairman and Brian become the vice chair for the coming year. Second, we have a first and a second. Is there any discussion? Would you do a roll call, please? Sure. Chair Mulligan. Lastly, last and final role as a chair. Yes, I vote yes. And Vice Chair Bartlett. Aye. Committee member Fight? Yes. Committee member Hildreth? Yes. Committee member Smyers. Aye. It passes. Thank you. I'll finish this meeting, Mr. Chair, and you can take over from there. Um I think our next item is public communications. That next uh under California law, public comments at special meetings are limited to subjects on the agenda only. Therefore, public comment uh will take place during the committee consideration of the item. And do we ask for comments here?
