##VIDEO ID:https://webstreaming.ctv15.org/viewer.php?streamid=7501## Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good evening. and welcome to the City of Falcon Heights regular meeting of the City Council on Monday, December 23, 2024. We'll call this meeting to order at 7.01 p.m. Roll call. Gustafson, here. Leahy, here. Meyer, on his way. Melke, here. Wassenberg, here. Linehan, here. Yeah, right. Do we have any changes to tonight's agenda? I would like to recommend that an item on the consent agenda be moved to the policy items, and that is number six. Number six? Authorization to apply for a Navy Grant vehicle. Okay. For electric vehicle charging stations, just so we can discuss it a bit. Policy two. Any other changes? Do I hear a motion to approve the agenda as modified or as amended? So moved. So moved. Leahy and Wassenberg. All those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Agenda is passed. Presentation tonight, we don't have one. We do have approval of minutes. We have our November 13th, 2024 City Council meeting minutes, the December 4th, 2024 City Council workshop minutes, and the December 11th, 2024 City Council meeting minutes. Any changes to the minutes that are of note? Do I hear a motion to approve the November 13th, December 4th, and December 11th, 2024 City Council Meeting Minutes? So moved. So moved by Wassenberg. All those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries 4-0. We do have a public hearing tonight. will be the consideration of amending the 2025 fee schedule ordinance to modify 2025 water and sewer rates, 2025 recycling rates, re-inspection fees, credit card minimum convenience fees, and cannabis hemp business registration fees. So the fee ordinance and all that in place will be the procedure for a public hearing is staff will provide a brief overview of the topic. We'll then open the hearing to the public. Each person may speak for a while. And after all who wish to speak have done so, we'll call two additional times for speakers and then a motion to close the hearing by consent. Then we'll open the floor for city council members to have a discussion on the topic and go forth from there for motions and taking action. So at this time, I'd call upon Administrator Linehan for an overview of the topic of our 2025 fee schedule ordinance. Thank you, Mayor and Council. So a little bit about our fee schedule and ordinance. So a few years ago, if you recall, we moved towards a fee schedule ordinance versus resolution, as that we sometimes have to do public hearings, sometimes not. Tonight we will, based on introducing a new fee, which is our cannabis licensing fees, we did approve this in another ordinance, but now that we're putting in the fee schedule, we do need to have this public hearing. But a couple of our other major fees that we would kind of want to point out. So the first is we're doing our increase for our sanitary sewer. We adopt this as part of the budget. Our current policy is, or practice, I should say, is we've been doing 25 cents per month for our enterprise funds. This keeps our funds healthy. It avoids us from having to do significant jumps one year and kind of consistently plan for the future. So in the sanitary sewer fund, you'll see we're increasing that fee 25 cents a month or up to 38.50 per quarter. The storm drainage fee. So we're actually doing a correction in the fee schedule on this one. We currently are billing residents through St. Paul Water at 27.50. The fee schedule says 28.50. That was an error that's been out there in our fee schedule, that's not what St. Paul's been charging or was in the budget. So what we're doing is we're actually reducing this fee on the schedule, increasing it in real life by 25 cents per month to help fix that error from last year. The other parts we're looking at too, similar with our recycling rates. So we're increasing our recycling rates. This is going up more substantially. This is going up 50 cents per month. This is tied to our new tennis agreement for recycling services. We still have the lowest recycling rates in the Twin City region with this, even with this increase. Other ones we're doing, too, for our re-inspection fees for building inspections, fire inspections. We're increasing that from $50 to $100. And this is if they don't show up or if there's multiple re-inspections, this fee's there to help recoup some of those costs. We're also, one of the things we're having to do is we're having to increase our credit card and convenience fee. We're looking for an alternative to this one. It is kind of unfortunate the vendor let us know very last minute that they're increasing their fees significantly. So the city's seeking a new vendor to do credit and debit transactions. So we do need to reflect our current fees until we find that in place. Other ones too, we have our cannabis and hemp. And then finally, just some kind of cleanup things that were noted at our workshop. So that's an overview of the proposed fee schedule. Thank you. At this time, I'll open the public hearing for members of the public to speak on this issue. And I see nobody here. We'll call a second time for speakers from the public on this matter here at the council. I'll note that we did properly advertise this according to law. And at our last public hearing, we mentioned that we would be holding this public hearing as well. So people have known about it. Now I'll call a third time for people to speak at the public hearing. Seeing that everybody present has had an opportunity to speak, I will now close the public hearing. and I'll open the floor for city council members to have their discussion on the topic. Any discussion from council? No, I think we covered it while it worked out. I think we did. I do hope we can find a new credit card vendor. The fee is a little bit steep, especially when a lot of our charges are rather small. Yeah, correct. Currently it's 2.95%, right? And so 2.95% on a small charge isn't bad, but that's one of our concerns, too, is we have drop-in yoga, for example. $16, you have to add $3.99 plus 2.95%. It's like going to a concert almost. Yes, correct. So we do need to find an alternative solution. The hard part is it has to integrate with a lot of our systems, too. So it's kind of a big bomb that was dropped on us by the vendor. And for things like yoga, just let them know in advance so they have the option to pay cash. To pay cash, yep. Exactly. There you go. Okay. Maybe the state should take Venmo. I'll ask that a member of the council make a motion on the recommendation to either approve or deny approving the 2025 fee schedule ordinance as adopted and the summary ordinance, or do they need to be separate? You could do both as a singular motion. Singular motion of the ordinance number 2409. So moved. So moved by Mielke. Any further discussion? None. Hearing none, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Oh. All those in favor signify by saying aye. Did I hear aye from everybody? Or was I going too fast? You went too fast. I went too fast. All those in favor of passing Ordinance Number 2409 and Summary Ordinance Number 2409, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries 4-0. Okay. Next we have our Consent Agenda, which consists of 11 items now. We have our general disbursements through December 19th, 2024, $503,277.15. Payroll through December 15th, $24,767.06. Wire payments through December 15th, 2024, $15,828.25. Approval of city licenses. 3. Approval of the City Meeting Calendar for 2025 4. Approval of an 18-month step adjustment for Senior Maintenance Worker Dave Simmons 5. Acceptance of a $500 donation from the Falcon Heights Lauderdale Lions Club Item 7. The 2024 Budget Amendments 8. Authorization of a budget amendment and pay request 1. To the City of Roseville for the 2024 Favement Management Project and Roselawn Avenue Cost Share Agreement 9. Ratification of approved contract with the City of St. Anthony Village for police services from March 1, 2025 through December 31, 2030 30. 5. Approval of an amendment to the city's personnel policy to reflect the change to bi-weekly payroll for 2025. 11. The mileage reimbursement rate for 2025 as the federal government has established it. And 12. The 2025 polling place agreement. Do I hear a motion to pass the consent agenda? So moved. So moved by Leahy. All those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries for all. Any comments on consent agenda items? I want to thank Dave for his service. Just one thing. I feel like on this neighborhood Facebook page, there's always people asking for recommendations on tree trimmers and tree services. So if we could announce who are the license somewhere? I mean, I know it's on the webpage, but I don't think people obviously don't know it because they're always saying, who did you use? And I feel like half of them aren't even licensed. So somehow that could just be communicated. Kind of communicate who our tree license people are. Yes. Because it is the season for it right now. Right. I saw trees being trimmed on the Snelling Frontage Road today by Hollywood Court. I just, yeah, and I feel like if we could just, every time someone asks a question, I'm like, here's who's licensed to work in our city. There are the 10 licensed tree contractors. It's not a recommendation, just a matter of the one they are licensed, and there's sort of an implication that a company that actually bothers to get licensed might be a better choice than one that doesn't bother to get licensed. And if you don't use a licensed one, it's at your risk. All right. I know there was one occasion where we needed a licensed trimmer, and we selected a friend, and that's been his business for over 30 years. But we said, for you to do this, we need you to be licensed with the city. We had him contact the city and find out what the requirements were to be licensed with the city. So if anyone has someone that they prefer using because they've seen their service elsewhere, it's possible, but they just need to go through the process of being licensed. It doesn't have to be at the end of the year before the year starts. I think that there are four tree license companies in the licenses in this bit. It's either four or five. Right now. So it's a good point. Well taken. We do have that list of our licensed businesses. Maybe at some point we can have a Chamber of Commerce-style promotion of businesses. Are the tree ones separated out on the website? Yeah. Yeah, I think they are. So, yeah, just highlight that. Yeah. So, and next we'll go to two different, we'll go to our policy items. And the first one of those, you'll have to. I've got to find it so that it's got its summary. Actually, could we just do one last thing? I think it's proper for us to thank the Falcon Heights Lauderdale Lions Club. Oh, yes. Nice job. Nice job. They're a definite, of course, wonderful partner for us. They've been a great partner. Great Christmas trees. I'm still watering mine every day. And it's still taking on water. Yeah. Got a humdinger from them last year. It was great. Yeah. Once again, Randy's procrastination got there way too late. Page 83. Page 192, the policy H1, the memo, playground equipment design and bid estimates resolution. So policy tonight is the consideration of selecting a vendor. Northland Recreation is the playground equipment supplier for Community Park and authorizing purchase using a joint purchasing cooperative not to exceed $250,000. We'll turn this over to Administrator Linehan to introduce and explain what's going on. Yeah, thank you, Mayor and Council. So tonight we're going to be consideration of authorizing staff to utilize joint purchasing agreements to select Northland Recreation as our community park playground vendor. So a little bit about this process. We've been working on this community park project for quite a while. But this fall, WSB, on our behalf, released a bid that went out to all qualified playground design firms in the area. It was advertised as well. They solicited designs. And so seven playground vendors that serve Minnesota submitted 11 different considerations or different plans. The Park and Recreation Commission then met early December. They kind of looked at it. They narrowed it down, and there was a unanimous favorite, which was Northland Rec. Brought it to City Council. City Council also supported their decision at their December 4th workshop. There were some revisions kind of during the Park and Rec meeting. Staff took those. We've been working with the playground vendor up until the 23rd hour on this. We're trying to get this 2024 pricing. Prices go up January 1st everywhere, so we're trying to lock this in now, get this signed, and get it ordered too, because there's a pretty long lag time for this. But they've actually, they're a great vendor. They'll be working pretty quickly with us, so we'll be able to get construction starting in the summer. And so tonight basically is authorizing us to go. you'll notice the pricing isn't $250,000 but we are asking for a little wiggle room if we need to add stuff modify things different things come in you'll also notice too when we sent out the packet on Friday we were still waiting on that final proposal we had a couple pictures of the design now we have more information on that process so the the pictures will show that it's not exactly obviously fully to scale a couple notes the playground vendor is not also the fence installer so if we do a fence around it'll be a different vendor so they're just kind of showing what a fence looks like that's not the final fence design or placement or any of those things and it's still kind of working on some of the coloration rubberized surfaces and we are still planning to try for a third time for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources outdoor recreation grant closes on March 31st so we'll be working on that application again and what we'll do for that grant is we will basically determine whether we do this rubberized surface if we get the grant if we don't it's going to be wood chips is kind of our proposal will also include shade structures and this fencing will all be part of our our grant application so we'll know that by July and then hopefully we'll start building in August depending on what we find out for the grant so that's kind of the overview I I'd be happy to answer any questions if there's any questions. I appreciated the presentation during our workshop on this, so I'm excited to move forward with this company and get the process going forward. It's exciting. Yes, my daughter is very excited when I told her that we'll be voting on this. I think it's going to be a winner. I want to thank Parks and Rec Commission for wading through all of the different designs and working on this and keeping it foremost in there. efforts. Great service to the city by a group of dedicated citizens who volunteer their time to do that. Appreciate it. I think it looks really good. Can't wait to play on it. So we have Resolution 2474 that is the title of it too. And could I request council to authorize us to change that to resolution 2473? 2473? With the change in policy. We're going to flip up their numbers. Okay. So this is 73, 2473. for do we need to read that? Is that at the back? Or if we just say resolution 2473 authorizing the city administrator and to execute the necessary purchase agreements using joint purchasing agreements for Northland Recreation. I'll put that into motion that we accept the project bid from Northland Recreation not to exceed $250,000 for the playground equipment installation at Community Park and authorize the city administrator to execute the necessary purchase agreements using joint purchasing agreements. Further discussion? Could someone just point me to the resolution? I didn't see it yeah I'm digging for it now 192 is the RCA 192 is the RCA and it mentions resolution 2473 I'm thinking it accidentally got pulled out of here during the swap to add in oh adding in all of the yeah it was swapped out today sorry about that we know what it says we have all of these cool pictures of what it can look like And these are on the Internet on today, tonight's agenda. In the council packet. In the packet for how we viewed it, just in case anybody would like to take a look at that. Yeah. And to kind of, I mean, cover the resolution, it has multiple whereas clauses basically supporting the playground, and then it authorizes exactly what this had said for the administrator to execute and for council's approval of this. So just because you don't have a photo, I wanted to summarize what it said. Yes. Okay. All those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries to approve Resolution 2473 on accepting the project bid and authorizing the city administrator to execute the documents. Thank you, everyone, on that. And then we'll move here to Policy H-2, which would be considered consent. Well, it was previously consent G-6. In that regards, do we need to change the numbers on the consent since we took six out, or are we just going to leave six blank? I don't know. I noticed you kept reading the numbers that were on there. Yeah, so I just had six as blank because we moved it out. And when I was talking about it, I called them consent seven and eight and nine and twelve. So we can do that and just leave it blank. Yeah, the numbers are, those aren't too important. The resolution number is very important. And so that's where we do run into some issues. But we did check if this got moved. It basically just flops because this was the last resolution in the consent agenda. So we should be okay to just renumber this one. Very good. So this would renumber to, if approved, Policy H-2. Yeah, it's Policy H-2, page 83. 83. Three and then 74. The resolution number appears on page 84. So this one was brought to us by Hannah Lynch, our Community Development Coordinator, and all things Environment Commission and Green Overseas site as well, to apply for NEVI funding for electric vehicle charging stations. As Hannah didn't know that this was going to be pulled off and make her come in prior holiday, Administrator Linehan, can you provide an overview of this? Yeah, thank you, Mayor and Council. So a little bit about this, and we knew, too, this was kind of one of those is it consent, is it not. Part of it is, you know, how this kind of came to be. So the city was approached by this firm, Opt4EV, But we are part of a larger cooperative as an EV-ready city. So we'd pass the ordinance supporting EV initiatives. So as part of that, we kind of get additional grant funding contacts, and we have different connections. And so this came through that connection network. So a little bit about it, though, is there's this federal funding program, the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program. It's the goal and recognition that as much as we want and there's a huge demand for EV vehicles, There's not the infrastructure right now to support it publicly or privately. And so what the federal government is doing is they're investing a lot of money through the year 2026 in our highway system, trying to add additional charging stations. And so they know they kind of need a private-public partnership to make this happen. And so we were contacted by this OP4EB slash JUUL that handles the application process. And so what the end result and proposal is, is that they would install four charging stations, and then they need five parking lot spots total here at City Hall. Of that, three would be regular charging stations, one would be an ADA-compliant charging station for electric vehicles. Now, these chargers, what they do is they are pay-to-use. So residents or anybody who would be interested in using them would come, enter their credit card information, and they'd be able to charge on these fast chargers here in City Hall. The kind of conditions and tradeoff is the city's cost would be zero. We would have no responsibility for maintenance of the machines, the cost of installation, cost of electricity. and in turn, this company, they would gather this grant application on our behalf. They would get the grant funding to help them pay for their cost to install. They would receive the revenue for it. And in consideration of using our space, we would charge rent to them for $400 per month for this proposal. So overall, again, it is moving very quick. One of the reasons this is coming quickly, too, the next grant funding deadline is early January, And so they need it basically, we're going to get them over information tonight, if it is approved, to get them to start it on this process. If we don't, there are other considerations. There could be other routes we could look at for EV infrastructure. But that's kind of the overview as to why staff is bringing it forward, that there are some pros with it and there would be some benefits to meet our EV goals. So that's kind of the overview of it from that and I'd be happy to answer questions more on the specifics. So at a workshop or another time we could talk about where these spots could be. Or I guess we wouldn't have to worry about it until they get the grant and they're accepted. But yes, yeah, we would still have more. There would be more staff oversight of this process. Okay. Yeah, I had requested that it go so we have a little discussion about it. When I first saw this, I'm like, okay, well, that's great. I'm, as an owner of two plug-in electric vehicles, I'm in great support of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. I just wanted to know more about this and Juul and what appears to be their parent company, eCameon. So I did some sleuthing and looked at some of their chargers that are existing and what their technology is, and I think I feel pretty good about it after having done that investigation. So they have a nice technology. It's not going to put a big power burden on the infrastructure in the city because of how they feed to a battery first and then to their DC chargers. They are modern chargers at 150 kilowatts. They have CCS as one of the chargers. If we can get the other one to be national North American charging standard, that would be great. And I think they would probably serve us and the people coming along our highways well for some time to come. So I think it all looks pretty good from what I saw. And I did actually go and scout out some of the chargers that they have in the U.S. on my little charging app, and they're running. They're working. So that's good. So a question for you. You're speaking of the CCS versus the national level and hoping that they do that. Is that something we need to request of them once staffing starts to install? Yeah, that would be so if they do get the grant, that is a great suggestion and request. So that would be something we could ask of them in the future. Yeah. So CCS is what's on most electric vehicles right now in the U.S., other than Teslas, which are NACS, National Charging Standard, but some other large producers such as, I believe, both Ford and GM are moving to NACS. Yeah, you'd want to have something that the market would use, and I'm certain that they would want that as well. Yeah, I've just seen something about Catamo being one of the proposed, and that's an older technology that's probably not going to be used going forward, won't be used going forward. Okay. I know the Environment Commission will be excited about this. Yeah, it's good. I bet you they will. Yeah, I mean, we talk about it a lot. We talk about maybe being at a community park or where to add. It's been talked about for many years how to get electric people, more electric people charging into Falcon Heights because there's not actually, other than at the university, I don't think there's actually a public charger in this city. And cost has always been a barrier. just removes that cost barrier and provides a system that would be, I think, very expensive for us to install on our own. And the chargers went away at the library. We lost those at the Ramsey, Roseville branch. They had chargers there? Yeah, they did in the south parking lot. They had problems with them working, and after a few years they took them out. Yeah, and those are kind of what they call a level two charger. These chargers are actually, well, those were probably six or seven kilowatt, and these are 150. And that would have been many years ago now. Yeah, I think they took them out a few years ago, yeah. Many years ago when they installed them, that building opened. Cool. Looks good. Looks good. So I'd make a motion to apply. Okay. Okay. Motion made by Milky to do 2474, resolution 2474 to apply for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program grant via Opt4EV slash JUUL and have the city staff take care of the details. Does that pretty much sum it up? Well, there is actually a resolution in here, isn't there? Yeah. Resolution 2473. It was three. It was three. Amend to four. Authorizing opt for EV and Juul to apply for Neve funding for electric vehicle chargers at Falcon Heights City Hall. Move by Mielke. All those in further discussion? Now that we've found it. Okay. All those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries 4-0. Jack, do you know when they would be approving? I don't. I know that the application closes, I think it was the first week of January. I don't know when the notification would come, though. I was just asking if we could get a reverse flow on that charger, too. It's going to be having an 800-kilowatt-hour battery sitting there that could power City Hall in the event of an outage. It might sometime. Just saying. I don't think we can get out of it. We just got those new pickups. Reverse flow. Yeah, people do that, yeah. Some people will power their homes off of their electric vehicles when there's a power outage. Oh, my goodness. Well, that's pretty cool. We do have a couple generators already. Do we? Okay. That's good. Yep. Okay. Information and announcements. Council Member Mielke. Sure. I learned from the International Institute that they are trying to settle many refugees' families between now and January 20th, so they're looking for a household donation. So I asked Jack if we could be a drop-off site, and he'll talk to Elko, so Community Engagement Commission knows. So they're looking for detergent, laundry, dish soap, personal care products. Yeah. Things like that. Okay. So things need to be between now and January 17th because the 20th is Martin Luther King Day. Sure. Drop off at City Hall. Okay. Organized with that, because International Institute is just right down on Como, right across from the fair. Yep. So if they can't drop off there, maybe we'll figure something here. Yeah, that's what we said. There could be a drop-off here, and I'll take it. Yeah, we did the co-drive with them and the bicycles and various other things through the years. It's a good neighbor kind of part of almost more Falcon Heights than anywhere. Cool. Council Member Leahy. Yes. So the CEC, the Community Engagement Commission, we just met on December 16 and had a great turnout for that. Our next meeting will be March 17 because of the January and February holidays. We don't meet during that time frame. We all have homework until then, but just want to make note that it will be a couple months before we do convene again the Community Engagement Commission. And most of our time was spent debriefing and talking about our Human Rights Day event, focusing around the redlining and the racial covenants that are on people's homes and just our city being forward-thinking in providing opportunity for residents to have that discharge off of their needs. Well, I was trying to think of the torrents and the abstracts. So it's for both of those being taken care of. And if people want to volunteer with Just Deeds, they're still accepting volunteers to go through and comb different neighborhoods and find out which households have those on there. So that was the first order of business. And the second order of business was talking about coming up in the late winter to spring and then summertime having community outreach to the apartments. And that will be a partnership of commissioners, staff, and council members participating. So they're going to do the work to find out which managers and building owners are willing to have us come and visit them or if they already have an existing event that we can just tag along and be a part of that. That was the majority of our conversation that we had. And there are three openings coming up on the CEC. So if anyone is looking for a commission to be a part of, now is a great time. If you're waiting for another commission and that one's full, maybe you want to start out with the CEC and just get your feet wet there and meet other residents and staff while you're waiting for that perfect spot and the one that fits your niche and interests. But it's a great commission that touches on a lot of things in the city. So that's it for me. And wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah coming up this week, which is why we're meeting today instead of Wednesday night. I do not have any announcements. Okay. I don't have any announcements either other than City Hall will be closed on the 24th and 25th, and then we'll reopen on Thursday the 26th. And the city will also have offices will be closed on January 1, which is the first Wednesday of January. so the city council workshop for the 1st of January is canceled, may be rescheduled to some point, or a workshop may need to be scheduled. But we took care of a lot of stuff here that needed to get done before the end of the year. I want to thank the council for a great year's worth of work and cooperation, and we took on some amazing things that we got done. We've got the police contract covered. We've got going forward next year community policing in the neighborhood. We've got a budget. We've got a capital campaign. We actually have, we'll see tangible events happen at Community Park. We had great events, well attended, and it was a lot of fun. A lot of work, a lot of effort, blood and tears, but, you know, goes into all of that. But I want to thank everybody for a great year's worth of work. Staff, council, and citizens who, commissioners and everyone, and get it going. we're going to head forward into 2025 looking for another great year, and I hope that the community participates in that and we get her going. So Merry Christmas, Happy New Year. Happy Hanukkah. And Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa. There's lots of things going on, and away we go. Administrator Linehan. Yeah, thank you, Mayor and Council. Just a couple of quick notes. So last Thursday was our first snow event. Public Works responded to that, cleaned up, continuing to clean up. And so that's just a good reminder that our snow and ice control policy goes into effect when two inches of snow has fallen. It continues. We are not tied to Minneapolis and St. Paul, so people think that. Ours is separate. It goes until all streets have been plowed curb-to-curb or 48 hours, whichever comes first. And if it continues to keep snowing, we do another pass every two inches. So the best, safest policy is if it's snowing, just don't park on the street if avoidable. And then our ice rinks. So we are aiming to get Curtis Field rink open this past weekend. But unfortunately, this is our first year with the new liner. We're learning some things. There's bubbles that form underneath the ice with a liner. That's something I think we learned the hard way because we drove our John Deere to kind of clear the ice, which is something we've done for many years in the past, and it cracked the sheet of ice last Thursday. So Public Works has been working to flood it. They were aiming to try to get it open on Friday afternoon was the original opening date, and that wasn't going to happen. So they're continuing to flood. It's going to need about four or five more sheets, so they think that they can get that once our next cold snap. So the nice thing is with the liner, it's going to stay pretty well frozen. They've repaired the ice, so once it's cold again, we'll get the ice up and running quickly. And same with the grove, close to opening. It's going to melt a little bit, but we think we'll get that open once we have a cold snap. So that kind of covers some of the stuff we're working on at City Hall. Cool. Great. community forum. Lots of opportunity to participate. We'll open and close it. People aren't here. I keep asking for everybody, but it's all right. We must be doing something right. Once again, Happy Hanukkah. Merry Christmas. Kwanzaa. Happy New Year. Drive safe and be safe this holiday season. Watch out for your loved ones. I would take a motion to adjourn. So moved. So moved by Lee. All those in favor, any discussion? All those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. On a vote of 4-0 at 742, we are adjourned.
