Now, next, council members, I wanted to talk with you just a minute about the police disciplinary hearing, which was set at the toward the end of last year. And it was set for February 18th at one o'clock PM. And so I have been working with the attorneys. We're working on the details of this hearing, and we have had a request for more time. And so I would like to offer an alternative to give more time as requested. We must determine if we have a quorum, the time I would like to offer, and then you'll need to see, we'll need to have a straw poll to see if you can attend, is February 18th, starting at one o'clock and going until nine o'clock, followed by council deliberations. There would be breaks and a 30-minute dinner break during that time. So what I think we need to do is see whether you can attend from 1 o'clock till 9 o'clock followed by deliberations. And if we have a quorum to do that, then I'll need a motion to reset the time for that hearing. So I would entertain a little bit of conversation about this. Vice Mayor Kay. Thank you, Mayor. I had thought that we needed more time than that. Has that changed? You have said... That's what we have worked through this since I talked with you. Thank you. I just wanted to make sure that everything was how it's supposed to be. Thank you, Mayor. Yes, thank you. Let's see, Council Member Worley. Thank you, Mayor. I was having some technical issues there. You cut out. I didn't catch the date that you gave. Okay. It would still be on February 18th, starting at 1 o'clock. and it would go until the hearing would go until nine o'clock followed by council deliberation. Okay, thank you. Thank you. Other questions? Can we go ahead and see if there's anyone who cannot? I realize this is a big change to your schedules and but we're trying to be accommodating so is there anyone who could not be here and and if in one of these hearings you have to be present for the entire hearing you cannot come in and leave and come back or come in late you have to be there for the whole thing it's like a jury would be so is there any anybody who cannot attend no okay well if i um if i could have someone make a motion to hold this hearing to change the time and hold it on February 18th from one o'clock to nine o'clock, followed by council deliberation. That will formalize it. So move. Second. Okay. Council member Lamb moves and council member Reynolds seconds. Now, is there any discussion of the motion? I gather from what I've seen here that we will have a quorum, which is very important, and that everyone will be able to attend. Okay. All right. Well, let's have a vote.

So my sources tell me they're opening it back up tomorrow at 6 a.m. So if you get requests saying the same thing, which is they're already gone, they're opening up new slots tomorrow at 6 a.m. I just want to pass it on to you all as well. Thank you very much. It is the state just opened it, as you know, and opened the reservation portal. And you're right. It just filled up totally. It will be there for quite some time.

I just wanted to take the opportunity to pass on what I've been hearing from a number of my friends who are in the right age bracket who've been able to get their vaccine. And there's been nothing but solid praise for the way all of this has been handled. I would have to say for at least one of them he was kind of bemused I guess that we could be so efficient and effective he wanted to know who does he thank I told him to send a note to you mayor and to the health department but just a shout out to all the people who are doing that work everything I've heard is that they handled it so well and people are just pleased and happy that the government is and the health department are working together and working together so well. So thank you. Thank you. That's wonderful feedback. It has been a huge partnership that just, you know, we kind of every day we work on it. So thank you for that feedback. Councilmember Lamb.
