Councilmember Spears, are you here?

Here.

Councilmember Waddell.

Councilmember Andrews?

Here.

Councilmember Joyner?

And the chair is here.

We'll begin.

C one consent agenda approval of the minutes.

C three is a resolution authorizing the city manager to apply for a Bureau of Justice Assistance 2025 body worn camera policy and implementation program granting the amount of 339,367 with a required local match of 169,684.

C4 is a resolution adopting the updated lead planning agency agreement between the City of Wilmington and the Wilmington Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and authorizing the city manager to execute a lease at 525 North 4th Street.

C5 is a resolution.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir, Mr.

Romba.

Well, I noticed in one of the paragraphs that when it talks about the rental, it's placed in a in a separate account.

The building's brand new.

I mean that that's going to build some, it's going to build up.

Anybody out there I'm looking at Mary, she's nodding her head.

Isn't could somebody explain that to me?

I mean maybe we got Mike Kozlowski here with the uh urban area.

He'll do.

He'll do.

I mean, we got a what a 10 million, 15 million dollar building down there, brand new, and we're gonna put this away for improvements and repairs.

It's five million dollars was what the cost of that building was, and the intent of this would be so that when there's maintenance or repairs that are needed, we would have an account that we could tap into to make those repairs.

So the the tenant is gonna be responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the building?

Yes, sir.

Okay.

In collaboration with the city, there's a as part of the agreement.

It outlines that there's certain limits in which the executive director would have the authority to make improvements or repairs, and at after those limits, then the executive director would have to come and ask permission.

What improvements are on the horizon?

I mean, is there things that we'll put off during construction?

No, sir.

Um, you know, this was the intent of this behind this was that the MPA would pay some sort of rent toward uh that building, and and so as part of the negotiation, we agreed that the rent would go towards a maintenance and repair fund so that we could have the ability to tap in.

If we needed, say there was a hurricane and we need a new roof, we would have this fund to go and tap into, and it's being paid for by our members as opposed to just the city.

Is anybody else participating in this?

Yes, it's all of the MPO.

The lead planning agency agreement is between the MPO and the city, but the members are also contributing toward the the lease.

Okay, thank you.

Yes, sir.

Thank you.

C5 is a uh resolution establishing the City of Wilmington Housing Advisory Committee and bylaws.

C six is a resolution amending membership of the downtown municipal services district advisory committee, and then we have uh resolutions, resolution opposing the expansion of Camor's favor of works facility.

This is coming forward from Councilmember Andrews, and then reports is RP1 report of council's appointments, committees for boards, commissions, and committees.

And that uh concludes this very short agenda.

Are there any further items we brought forward by our city manager?

No, sir.

Okay, city attorney, no sir, madam clerk, no sir.

Any members of council?

Okay, all right.

With that, we stand adjourned and get out and vote tomorrow.
