I heard rumor that Mark Davis was with us tonight, so, Reverend, greetings. I will call you up in just a moment, but first. First, we have a roll call. Madam Clerk, whenever you are ready, please call the roll. Mr. Farmer. Here. Mr. Ford. Here. Ms. Gordon? Here. Ms. Henson? Here. Mr. Kay? Here. Mr. Lane? Here. Ms. Lawless? Here. Ms. Mazzotti? Here. Mr. Myers? Here. Ms. Sutchfield? Here. Mr. Stennett? Yes, ma'am. Ms. Akers? Yes. Mr. Beard? Present. Mr. Clark? I'm here. And Mr. Ellinger? Here. Thank you. Thank you, Susan. Thank you, Madam Clerk. It is a great pleasure to introduce the Reverend Mark Davis, who is minister at First Presbyterian Church, and by way of introduction, he has contributed enormously to our city since his arrival here just a couple of years ago, including participating as a member of the Homelessness Commission more recently. And he is pretty well known for offering sermons to his congregation and beyond without any notes. And they are pretty spectacular sermons. I bet some of you all have heard one or more. So, Mark, pastor, reverend, preacher, thank you for joining us and being here tonight. Thank you. Nonetheless, I brought notes today, Mr. Mayor. The Council Member Kay reminded me that it was okay to be partisan, but to be clearly non-sectarian. I wanted to share a thought with you before we pray about your work. First, to say thank you for your public service. I don't think people thank you enough. It is very hard work. Jeff Nicholson remarked, most of us, I suppose, like to think that we have good general knowledge. But knowledge, he said, is rarely general at all. Good knowledge is usually extremely specific. You do great work with specific knowledge in detail. Would you join me, please, in prayer? You who are the source of all goodness, give us compassionate hearts. and this evening help the men and women who lead this city do in their own remarkable way loving things that surprise even themselves and in the course of the evening to stop and listen because each of us needs someone to listen to the good word and the detail that is important to us. Help them by their common effort to mend anything that is broken and to bring back together that which has fallen apart and to help them notice again what we may have forgotten, that you are in, through, and among all things. Help us to find then in all things our source of life in you and our fellowship with each other. Grant us wisdom and courage, integrity, and may none of these ever live apart from being a servant of mercy. Amen. Thank you all. Thanks, Mark. Thank you, sir, so much. Is your mic on? All right. Next on our agenda is approval of minutes of previous meetings. I'll ask for a motion to approve all five sets of minutes. It's a motion by Vice Mayor Gordon. Did I get a second?

We need to give her a big round of applause and appreciate her extreme, diligent service. Woo-hoo! Thank you. Thank you. So thank you. I know I, for one, am very sad to see you go and wish you Godspeed. Yes. I will have to say I didn't plan on this being the last one, but I think it's going to have to be because I don't think I can get through another one. Oh, you better. Yeah, we thought there's one more. There's one more. Yes. We're not going to let you off. We're going to get to do this again. Yes. Maybe if I take a nerve pill before the next week. Secondly. Oh, the vice mayor is not going to be here next week, so she wants to. Vice mayor. Thank you. No. Yeah, they're going to clap because of that. No, I did because I won't be here, Susan. and I've worked a lot with you for many, many years now, and you've been really good for urban county government. And so I also would like to add my personal thank you to you. And you're so young. I know you have many careers left in you, and you can pursue other things that you're interested in. So thank you for your service to our community. Thank you, Vice Mayor. Thank you. I suspect more later next week, so you better prepare yourself. Diane, did you have something else? Yes, I wasn't finished. I was informed that while we've been here, a very big storm hit a lot of the neighborhoods to the east, I guess. I'm not good with directions, as you know. a lot in the area I live in, in Kentucky Avenue, and I think probably parts of Councilmember Farmers and District and trees are down, and apparently there was quite a lot of damage. So I just want folks to be aware of that, and if you're traveling, I'm assuming that there may be, I don't know the extent of it, because I just found out about it a little bit ago. So be aware of that if you're traveling in that area. I think there's some streets that have been blocked, and there may be power problems. So thank you all. All right. Thank you, Council Member Lawless. Is there a motion to adjourn? Second. Motion by Council Member Akers, second by Council Member Beard. Unless there is an objection, we are adjourned. Thank you.
