Speaker 1: Thank you, Miss Brassard. That concludes public comment. So thank you very much. Moving on to the agenda item 11, please. Thank you, sir. It could be a motion in a second. Any public comment on the item? Casey, no public comment. Please cast your votes. Sir. Are you? Hold on a second. Do you have a comment on this item? This is item 11.
Speaker 3: I think I do, yes.
Speaker 1: Okay. Please come forward.
Speaker 3: What is the justification? I'm sorry. Because it the it it's not posted. What's the justification for council canceling the meeting on the Ides of March?
Speaker 1: The meeting is being canceled because the council's added to meetings and so we're removing one in March. So we added one at both of the dark Tuesdays of the last two months.
Speaker 3: So the Ides of March, I. Reminds me what that always brings back Roman history. And one of the things I'm always conscious of that because I travel every day, as many people do on something called the Appian Way. Which, if you've done your history, was. One of the first roads in what was the greatest empire on the face of the planet. For generations. For years. For centuries. Until. Until. It started traveling down paths such as this council and quite frankly. Many portions of the state and the country are traveling. Which will, in the final analysis, as I pointed out, render this republic something. If you want to know what your grandchildren's children. We'll be living in. I would suggest you go down to Guatemala or Honduras. Because this is what's going to be. Their future. Our future here. Is again, it's on a downward spiral. I remember about five years ago, I, Bob Foster, didn't want to look at the clip I brought up from the Titanic, that iconic scene where the owners, the captain and the ship's architect were gathered in the ship's architects office on the ship. It was pointing out what the realities were when this whole world gets filled with water. We're all right. When this one. It's filled, we're all right. But when it gets here. It's over. We're going down. We've passed that point. Now the only thing we can do is make it a little bit better for ourselves. And I. Think that it would be inappropriate to cancel. The meeting of the Ides of March, but rather come back and give some reflection. To what you've done and where you want to go and what will be visited upon this city. In the coming. Years as a result of some of the buffoonery we've seen here tonight and other nights. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Okay. Members, please cast your votes.
