Present. DCO. Here. Glenn? Here. Here. Roy. Here. Thank you. Please stand and join us on Pledge of Allegiance. We'll have interpreter services. Next on the agenda is public comment. We'll have 35 minutes allotted for public comment this evening. Anybody who wishes to make public comment to the council should pick up a form in the lobby, fill it up and give it to the clerk. When you come to the podium, please give us your name and identify us the city in which you live. Also, I want to remind you the state law prohibits electionering at city facilities during public comment and speakers cannot campaign for or against candidates, or support or oppose any ballot measures in the upcoming election. Okay. The first person we have tonight is Ray Muson. Thank you. My name is uh Rasmus Hansen. Yes, I am so it's a hard one. Even my mother had trouble. Um I live at 616, South Twenty Fifth Avenue. I'm in District Three. Yes, you are. I am concerned about the federal government's immigration enforcement has direct access to the Yakima City flock camera system. The Yakima Police Department's official website on flock cameras reads this, and I quote, prohibited uses, immigration enforcement, traffic enforcement, harassment or intimidation, usage based solely on protected classes like sex, religion, or race, or personal use. I urge the city council and the city attorney to follow the policy of its own police department and condemn the sharing of data with the federal immigration enforcement task forces. I ask that we stop this immediately. We have a high school named after this man. And finally, freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. Ronald Reagan. Next topic. On the recently completed interchange at Powerhouse Road, Fruitvale Boulevard, and 34th in District 5. I wish to congratulate the city of Yacoma for an excellent engineering and time the completion of this Roadworks project. Compared to its previous configuration, I find it easy to navigate and less stressful when I drive it. Thank you, Mr. Hanson. You're welcome. I want to say bravo for the way you presented that. Yes. Next is Brian Korst.
