[00:00:05]
IS 6:04 P.M. WITH FIVE MEMBERS PRESENT. WE HAVE A QUORUM. AT THIS TIME, PLEASE STAND FOR THE INVOCATION LED BY JEFF, FOLLOWED BY THE PLEDGE. IF YOU PLEASE, JOIN ME IN A MOMENT OF SILENCE.
THIS WEEK, WE LOST A PILLAR OF OUR COMMUNITY, AND RAYMOND COOPER. I JUST ASK THAT WE WOULD ALL PAUSE AND JUST TAKE TIME TO REMEMBER HIM IN OUR OWN WAY. HEAVENLY FATHER, WE JUST THANK YOU. WE THANK YOU FOR THE GOODNESS THAT YOU CREATE. WE THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME TOGETHER AND DO THE CITY'S BUSINESS THIS EVENING FOR THE ANIMAL SHELTER ADVISORY BOARD TO SPEAK FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT SPEAK, FATHER, AND TO TEND TO THE NEEDS OF THOSE WHO ARE HELPLESS WITHOUT US. FATHER, WE ASK THAT YOU WOULD WATCH OVER THOSE IN UNIFORM WHO PROTECT OUR FREEDOMS, AND THOSE MEN AND WOMEN WHO ARE OUR PUBLIC SERVICE AND PROTECT OUR CITIZENS. IT'S IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I PRAY. AMEN. AMEN. PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS. ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA TONIGHT IS CITIZENS PARTICIPATION. IF ANY CITIZEN OF WYLIE WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE BOARD ON ANY SUBJECT, PLEASE STEP FORWARD AT THIS TIME. PLEASE LIMIT YOUR COMMENTS TO THREE MINUTES. AND PLEASE BE AWARE THAT ACCORDING TO THE TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT, WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO RESPOND TO ISSUES NOT LISTED ON TONIGHT'S AGENDA. STILL, WE CAN DIRECT OUR STAFF TO ASSIST ANYONE HAVING QUESTIONS OR ISSUES REGARDING CITY BUSINESS. PLEASE ALLOW THE RECORD TO SHOW THAT NO ONE HAS COME FORWARD DURING CITIZEN PARTICIPATION. MOVING TO THE REGULAR AGENDA, THE FIRST ITEM IS CONSIDER AND ACT UPON THE ANIMAL SHELTER ADVISORY BOARD. MINUTES OF AUGUST 14TH, 2024.
I MOTION TO ACCEPT THE MINUTES FOR THE AUGUST MEETING. SECOND. ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. BOARD MEMBERS, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE.
OH 75. OH SEVEN. IT WAS GOOD. MOTION PASSES. OKAY. I DIDN'T SEE. THERE IT IS. OKAY. THE MOTION PASSED WITH 5 TO 5. THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS CONSIDER AND PLACE ON FILE. THE 2024 THIRD QUARTER STATISTICAL INFORMATION FOR SHELTER OPERATIONS. MADAM CHAIR, IF I MIGHT POINT OUT THE SCREEN DIDN'T INDICATE THE TOTAL NUMBER OF VOTES FOR THE FIRST MOTION. I KNOW THAT WHEN IT BLINKED UP AT FIRST, IT WAS APPROVED 5 TO 0, BUT THE ELECTRONIC RECORD MAY NOT JIVE WITH WHAT WAS JUST READ IN THE MINUTES. SO I JUST WANTED TO POINT THAT OUT, THAT WE MAKE SURE THAT THE VOTE WAS 5 TO 0 ON THE SCREEN, AND THEN IT BLANKED OUT AND WENT, JUST YOUR VOTE WAS COUNTED INSTEAD OF ANYBODY ELSE'S. SO IT DID PASS 5 TO 0. BUT IN A PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE, SHOULD WE DO A HAND VOTE SO THAT WE DO HAVE A RECORD OF THE VOTE? IT'S UP TO YOU, MADAM CHAIR. ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO BACK TO ITEM ONE AND DO A QUICK HAND VOTE TO APPROVE THE MINUTES FROM AUGUST 14TH. ALL IN FAVOR? THAT IS PASSED 5 TO 0. ALL RIGHT, SO WE CAN MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ITEM AND CONSIDER AND PLACE ON FILE THE 2024 THIRD QUARTER STATISTICAL INFORMATION FOR
[00:05:06]
SHELTER OPERATIONS.OKAY. I JUST WANT TO SEE IF ANYBODY HAS ANY QUESTIONS. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY CHANGES TO OUR STATISTICAL REPORT. I DID TRY TO FOR THOSE THAT MAY BE LISTENING FOR THEM TO UNDERSTAND HOW HOW THIS IS TABULATED. I TRIED TO DO MAYBE A DISCUSSION ITEM THAT EXPLAINS THE GRAPHING AND THE METHOD OUT A LITTLE BETTER FOR THEM, BUT OUR QUARTERLY STATISTICAL INFORMATION REPORT HAS THREE DATA GROUPS AND WITHIN THE SPECIFIED REPORTABLE TIME FRAME. SO WE DO OUR IMPOUNDED ANIMALS, THE DISPOSITIONS OF OUR ANIMALS AND THE METHOD WITH THAT METHOD OF DISPOSITION BY LINE ITEM. AND IF THERE WERE EUTHANASIAS, WE HAVE FOUR METHODS OF EUTHANASIA. SO THE FOUR COLUMNS ACROSS IN EACH ONE ARE GOING TO BE DOGS, CATS AND OTHERS. AND THESE ARE DOMESTIC DOGS, CATS OTHERS IS EVERYTHING ELSE YOU COULD IMAGINE. LIVESTOCK, THINGS LIKE THAT. SO I JUST THERE WAS ONE OTHER QUESTION THAT HAD CAME FORWARD THAT SOMEONE DID ASK ME ABOUT WAS AT THE BOTTOM REPORT, WHERE IT SAYS DOGS AT FACILITY AT THE END OF THE REPORT AND AT THE BEGINNING OF THE REPORT. AS YOU KNOW, THESE ARE QUARTERLY REPORTS, AND THEY START ON THE FIRST OF A MONTH OF A SEGMENT OF TIME. SO JULY THROUGH SEPTEMBER AND WHATEVER IS AT THE SHELTER WHEN ON THE FIRST DAY IS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE REPORT AND THEN AT THE END OF THE REPORT, WHAT IS REMAINING THAT HAS NOT HAD A DISPOSITION, BUT IT HAS BEEN IMPOUNDED. IT'S GOING TO BE REMAINING AT THE SHELTER ON THAT FINAL DAY. SO WE ALWAYS HAVE TO KEEP THOSE INTO, BECAUSE AT THE END OF THIS REPORT, YOU KNOW, FOR INSTANCE, MAYBE THAT WOULD DEFINE A BETTER DOGS FACILITY AT THE END OF THIS REPORT, 29 SO, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE COME BACK TO DO OUR OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, DECEMBER REPORT, WE'RE STARTING WITH 29 THAT ARE HERE, BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SEE THEM ON THE IMPOUNDS BECAUSE THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN IMPOUNDED. WE'RE NOT GOING TO IMPOUND THEM AGAIN BECAUSE NOW YOU'RE COUNTING THE ANIMAL TWICE, RIGHT? SO AND THEN THAT'S WHY THERE MIGHT BE A DEVIATION IN NUMBERS. SO YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SEE LIKE 122 IMPOUNDS AND THEN 122 DISPOSITIONS. BECAUSE THERE WERE THINGS THERE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE REPORT, AND THERE ARE THINGS THERE THAT ARE STILL WAITING FOR THEIR FOREVER HOME. THEY'RE WAITING FOR THAT DISPOSITION METHOD. SO IF MAYBE SOMEONE'S LISTENING, THAT MIGHT HELP CLEAR THAT UP A LITTLE BIT. AND ALSO FOR BOARD MEMBERS, JUST A LITTLE CLARIFICATION AGAIN, YOU KNOW, SO WE THE REPORT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE, YOU KNOW, REDUNDANT. AND WE JUST ASSUME WE KNOW. AND I DON'T WANT TO ASSUME THAT ANYONE KNOWS. SO I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT BETTER EXPLANATION ON THAT. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE YOU THINK I NEED TO ADD TO THAT TO BETTER EXPLAIN, I'LL BE MORE WILLING TO DO SO. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY COMMENTS QUESTIONS? CONCERNS? MADAM CHAIR, I'D LIKE TO CONSIDER AND PLACE ON FILE THE 2024 THIRD QUARTER STATISTICAL INFORMATION FOR SHELTER OPERATIONS. THAT IS MY MOTION. I SECOND THAT MOTION.
ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION. AND A SECOND, PLEASE VOTE. PLEASE ALLOW THE RECORD TO SHOW THE MOTION PASSED 5 TO 0 WITH NO FURTHER ITEMS ON THE REGULAR AGENDA. WE WILL NOW MOVE TO THE WORK SESSION. AND WE HAVE ONE ITEM ON OUR WORK SESSION AGENDA, WHICH IS AN UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF THE ANIMAL SHELTER RENOVATION PROJECT. SHEILA. TO THE FUN STUFF. TO THE FUN STUFF. AGAIN, I DO WANT TO START OUT BY SAYING I WANT TO EXPRESS EVERY OUNCE OF GRATITUDE I CAN FOR THIS BOARD
[00:10:07]
TO HELP GET THROUGH INTO THIS PROCESS, AND FOR US TO CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD FROM HERE. I WILL TELL YOU, I'VE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT US LEARNING TO THRIVE WITHIN THIS. THIS OPERATIONAL CHANGE. ALSO, I, I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT JUST TO EXPRESS THE GRATITUDE TO MY STAFF THAT HAS MEANT EVERY WHICH WAY THAT WE POSSIBLY CAN. WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GROUP TOGETHER, TO WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THIS WORK. AS I'VE SAID, WE ARE GOING TO APPROACH OBSTACLES WITHIN THIS AND THEY HAVE DONE AN AMAZING JOB TO CONTINUE TO SERVICE OUR PUBLIC, TO CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR SHELTER OPEN, TO CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR ADOPTION CENTERS OPEN, TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR ANIMALS ARE BEING CARED FOR. AND THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY DONE AN AMAZING JOB. AND THEN WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE ARE IN CONSTRUCTION. SO AS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY EXPLAINED, IT IS A TWO PHASE PROCESS SO THAT WE COULD CONTINUE OUR OPERATIONS AND CONTINUE THE SAFETY OF THE OPERATION BY KEEPING OUR FIRE ALARMS AND EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED TO KEEP GOING. PHASE ONE IS LOOKING GREAT. THERE'S WALLS, THERE'S WE CAN TELL WHERE ROOMS ARE NOW. WE CAN SEE WHERE HALLWAYS ARE, WHERE SHEETROCK GOING UP AND THEY'VE GOTTEN TO THE PHASE OF THAT TO WHERE NOW WE'RE, YOU KNOW, JUST LINING UP THE CONTRACTORS FOR THOSE FINISHES. WE'VE GOT A LOT OF ELECTRONICS.WE DO HAVE A LOT OF SPECIALTY ITEMS, YOU KNOW, DOORS, THINGS FOR OUR ANIMALS AREAS. SO IN ORDER TO TRY TO GET THAT MOVING IN, PHASE TWO OF THE PROCESS WAS OUR OUR THE INDOOR OUTDOOR KENNEL CONVERSION FOR THE QUARANTINE SPACE. AND THEY WENT AHEAD. THEY HAVE STARTED ON THAT PROCESS ALREADY. WE WERE ABLE TO COOPERATE WITH THEM TO GIVE THEM THE SPACE THEY NEEDED, BECAUSE THE DOORS FOR THOSE KENNELS ARE QUITE A PROCESS. THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN MEASURED AND ORDERED.
THEY'RE DOING A GREAT JOB WITH THAT. IT'S REALLY HARD FOR ME TO EXPLAIN WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE BECAUSE LIKE, YOU WALK IN THERE AND WE DO HAVE EVERYTHING ZONED OFF FOR. OUR PUBLIC IS STILL COMING INTO OUR LOBBY. WE HAVE A WELCOME DESK IN OUR LOBBY. WE'RE STATIONED THERE. THEN WE ARE STATIONED IN OUR THE LARGEST OF THE TWO CAT ROOMS RIGHT NOW, OUR FOSTER PROGRAM HAS BEEN A TREMENDOUS HELP. YOU KNOW, I DO SEE OFTEN PEOPLE ARE LIKE, OH, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY CATS. WE DO.
THEY WERE GOING THROUGH FOSTERS. THAT HAS BEEN MY FULL INTENTION THIS TIME TO UTILIZE FOSTERS AS MUCH AS WE POSSIBLY CAN. CATS CAN BE SENSITIVE TO A LOT OF NOISE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES, AND IT'S JUST THE ABSOLUTE, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE BEST CASE SCENARIO. SO WE ARE KIND OF TRANSITIONING THEM OUT OF FOSTER THROUGH THE VET INTO THE SYSTEM, ONTO THE SOCIAL, TO, YOU KNOW, KEEP THAT DOWN. WE HAVE ONE IN THE FACILITY NOW ACTUALLY WE DON'T I THINK IT WENT TODAY TO VETTING THAT HAD UPPER RESPIRATORY. SO BECAUSE OF OUR FOSTERS AND BEING AS LIMITED AS WE ARE IN THE SPACE OF JUST THE ONE ROOM WHERE EVERYTHING IS AT, WE WERE ABLE TO GET THIS ANIMAL HEALTHY AGAIN AND GET THROUGH THAT, BECAUSE OUR FOSTERS HAD THE REST OF OUR CATS. SO THESE FOSTERS ARE LOCAL. THERE ARE OUR MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. IT'S A IT'S A GREAT THING. I WE'VE LEARNED LIKE WE SHIP STRAIGHT TO THEIR DOOR FOOD, ALL THOSE THINGS THAT WE PROVIDE AS YOU'RE THE FOSTER, YOU'RE GOING TO GET WHAT WE WOULD HAVE HERE FOR YOU AND FOR OUR FOR OUR LITTLES. SO THAT IS GOING WELL. WE'RE WE'RE GOING INTO PHASE TWO. ONCE WE GET THROUGH THIS ONE, WE'LL GO TO TWO AND WE WILL AT THAT POINT LOSE OUR CAT ROOMS. SO AND I'VE ALSO EXPRESSED THAT WE ARE INSPECTED BY THE STATE. AND THIS IS OUR STATE INSPECTION TIME. OUR TEMPORARY QUARANTINE HAS BEEN BUILT AND OUR DOG BUILDING BECAUSE WE LOSE OUR STATE QUARANTINE COMPLETELY. BUT WE DO HAVE A STATE APPROVED PROCESS OF BLOCKING OFF OUR SIX KENNELS. TO ALLOW FOR THAT. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD TO UTILIZE THAT. AT ONE POINT, JUST BECAUSE THE CURRENT STATE QUARANTINE ROOM LOST AIR CONDITIONING FOR A DAY AND WE HAD TO MOVE AND IT SMOOTH. PERFECT. EVERYTHING WENT WELL.
STAFF IS ON POINT, SO WE HAVE THIS COVERED FOR OUR DOGS. IF WHAT WE'RE WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT
[00:15:09]
DOING IS IF OUR INTAKE ROOM ON THE PHASE ONE SIDE, IF THIS TRANSITION GOES AS SMOOTHLY AS EVERYTHING HOPES, WE WILL HAVE AN AREA FOR OUR CAT ROOM. OKAY, BECAUSE WE WILL BE IN THAT SIDE AND WE WILL JUST HAVE TO CONVERT OUR INTAKE ROOM INTO THAT LITTLE AREA. WE WILL MAKE THIS WORK. I KEEP SAYING THAT AND MY STAFF HAS NOT DISAPPOINTED ME. OUR RESIDENTS HAVE NOT DISAPPOINTED US AND WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY COMPLAINTS. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS NEEDED TO BE DONE, THAT HAS TO BE DONE, THAT I WISH I COULD EXPLAIN TO YOU IN DETAIL. LIKE WE WALKED THROUGH THERE AND IT'S PRETTY. YOU KNOW, IT'S REALLY EXCITING FOR US BECAUSE THE FLOW IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH BETTER. IT'S JUST HARD FOR US TO GET EXCITED WHEN WE'RE LIVING IN THIS ONE LITTLE ROOM RIGHT NOW AND STILL TRYING TO SERVE THIS COMMUNITY ON THE STREET. WE'RE STILL ACTIVE IN OUR COMMUNITY EVENTS. I HAVEN'T I HAVEN'T SEEN AN AREA THAT THAT I HAVE ANY CONCERN WITH RIGHT NOW. RIGHT.SO WE DO HAVE A LOT OF DOGS AND THEY JUST KEEP COMING IN. BUT WE'VE WE'VE BEEN PLEASANTLY WE'VE BEEN DOING FAIRLY WELL WITH ADOPTIONS LATELY. SOME OF OUR LONG TIMERS AND THAT'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE. BUT WE'RE GOING TO KEEP DOING THAT. WE'RE DOING WE HAVE SOME UPCOMING FIELD TRIPS, SOME THINGS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT AND THEY NEED TO GET OUT OF THAT SMALL LITTLE OFFICE JUST AS MUCH AS AS OUR OUR GUYS DO. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, NOTHING'S COMPLETE. WALLS ARE UP, PLACES ARE THERE. WE HAVE MEETINGS TOMORROW, MILL WORK, YOU KNOW, JUST THOSE SOME OF THOSE THINGS THAT TAKE TIME. BUT WE SEEM TO BE I DON'T EVEN SAY IT BUT WE THAT OUR, MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THOSE DOORS THAT ARE GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT LONGER. THEY MIGHT BE OUR HOLD UP AT THE END. THAT MIGHT MAKE US FINISH ON THE PROJECTED TIME FRAME, BUT IF THEY COME IN A LITTLE EARLIER, MAYBE, MAYBE WE CAN HAVE CHRISTMAS IN THERE. SO THAT THAT WOULD BE NICE. SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO THOUGH, I HAVE DISCUSSED I HAVE A MEETING TOMORROW AND I WILL DISCUSS THIS WITH MY PROBABLY WITH RENEE HOLLY AS LIAISON ABOUT POSSIBLY SCHEDULING A TIME A COUPLE OF TIMES, MAYBE THE BOARD IF YOU WANT TO COME BY WHEN IT'S APPROPRIATE BECAUSE OF THE CONSTRUCTION, ZONING AND HARDHATS AND THINGS LIKE THAT AND LIABILITIES TO. I'M GOING TO TALK WITH THEM TOMORROW TO SEE IF YOU WANT TO, YOU KNOW, COME ON. NOT A QUORUM. JUST JUST A TOUR, JUST A LITTLE BASIC. IT'S SO HARD TO EXPLAIN. YOU KNOW, I CAN I CAN SHARE PHOTOGRAPHS WITH YOU. I CAN DO THINGS IN EMAIL. I CAN DO THAT. BUT IT'S JUST IT'S VERY HARD FOR YOU TO SEE IT AGAIN IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE HARD TO SEE EVERYTHING OUT, BUT I, I THINK YOU'D BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WITH WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DO. AND WE HAVEN'T HAD TO HAD TO MOVE TO APPOINTMENT. WE HAVEN'T HAD TO CHANGE MUCH OF ANYTHING. IT'S A LOT MORE WORK, BUT IT'S DEFINITELY WORTH IT. SO AND I WILL SEND OUT AN EMAIL IF I COULD POSSIBLY GET THAT AFTER AND SEE WHAT DISCUSSIONS. BUT I WOULD LOVE THE ABILITY TO JUST DO JUST A LITTLE TOUR OF WHAT'S GOING ON. SO I'LL CHECK INTO THE, YOU KNOW, LIABILITIES OR WHATEVER COMES WITH THAT. AND AT THE VERY LEAST MAYBE CAN SHARE LIKE A PHOTO ALBUM OR, YOU KNOW, THINGS LIKE THAT. SO I WANT TO COME UP WITH, WITH SOME OF THOSE THINGS. I JUST DON'T HAVE THE ANSWERS FOR THEM BECAUSE OUR MEETING IS NOT TILL TOMORROW.
AND NOW THAT THEY DON'T HAVE ALL THE OH, THERE'S STILL A LOT OF THINGS OVERHANGING AND OPEN AND THINGS THAT NEED TO BE CLOSED. BUT I'D REALLY LIKE FOR YOU ALL Y'ALL HAVE DONE SO MUCH, AND I'D REALLY LIKE FOR YOU ALL TO BE ABLE TO SEE IT WHERE WE'RE AT. AND IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, YOU KNOW, TO KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING. SO I'M NOT SURE. I MEAN, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL BE GLAD TO TRY TO ANSWER THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITIES. BUT I MEAN, I, I'M VERY HAPPY WITH HOW IT'S GOING RIGHT NOW. SO WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO STAY ON THAT, ON THAT, THAT ROAD. THE ORIGINAL PROJECTED TIMELINE WAS PHASE ONE, EIGHT WEEKS. PHASE TWO, FOUR WEEKS. IS THAT STILL ON SCHEDULE? THAT SO THAT'S WHAT I SAID. I DON'T I MEAN, I YOU KNOW, WHAT WAS OUR ACTUAL START
[00:20:09]
START DATE? WE CLEARED THE SHELTER HAD ENDED ON THE 10TH. WE HAD TO WAIT TILL THE FOLLOWING WEEK. SO IT HAS NOW BEEN. FOUR WEEKS. OH, I MEAN, IF WE LOOK AT IT RIGHT NOW, WE'RE DOING REALLY GOOD. I MEAN, I, I DON'T, I DON'T ANTICIPATE UNLESS THERE'S JUST SOMETHING DRAMATIC BEING TOO FAR OFF OF THAT. NUMBER SIX, PEOPLE START STARTING ON SEPTEMBER 16TH.OKAY. SO SEPTEMBER 16TH. SO I MEAN, YEAH. I AM I'M NOT I'M NOT GOING TO FIB. IT FEELS LIKE IT'S A LITTLE BIT LONGER THAN THAT WHEN YOU'RE WORKING IN IT. BUT BUT IT IS AMAZING. I HAVE ONE STAFF MEMBER MR. ELLENBERG, OFFICER ELLENBERG, WHO'S BEEN THAT POINT OF CONTACT THERE ON SITE, HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB BECAUSE I HAVE TO KEEP YOU KNOW, BEING PULLED IN A LOT OF DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS AND WITH THAT, IT IT FORCED THE TWO CERTIFIED OFFICERS, SOLIS AND WALKER, TO STEP UP BECAUSE THEY'RE HAVING TO DO A WHOLE LOT OF ACO WORK. OUR OTHER TWO OFFICERS ARE NOT CERTIFIED ONE ONE IS CERTIFIED AND GOING THROUGH THE PROGRAM WASN'T CERTIFIED, WAS CAME TO US CERTIFIED A LITTLE FASTER PACE. BUT WE'RE STILL IN FIELD TRAINING, WHICH MEANS IT PULLS THE LEAD OFFICER, OFFICER MARIN, OFF TO DO THE FIELD TRAINING. SO WHILE WE'RE LOSING SO WE LOSE HIM AND I'M PUSHING HIM TO THIS AND IT PUTS A LOT IN LIKE SOLIS AND WALKER HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB DOING EVERYTHING. AND I MEAN EVERYBODY PITCHED IN FOR NATIONAL NIGHT OUT. I MEAN, THEY'RE RUNNING OUT WITH DOG FOOD OR CAT FOOD BAGS TO THE FOSTER FORGOT TO LET US KNOW. AND THEY'RE DROPPING THINGS. I MEAN, AT THE END OF THE DAY, I MEAN, I'VE SEEN THEM DO SOME AMAZING THINGS. SO I COULDN'T BE PROUDER OF THEM, YOU KNOW? AND IF ANYONE OUT THERE, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT YOU FEEL LIKE WE'RE FAILING AT, I MEAN, EMAIL US. WE'LL WE'LL ADDRESS IT. SO WE ARE PROJECTED TO HAVE THAT COMPLETION TIME WHERE IT WAS SO I'M WE'RE STILL VERY HOPEFUL FOR THAT. THOSE, THOSE DOORS, IT'S JUST ONE MANUFACTURER. SO IT'S IT BUT THEY ARE IDEAL. BUT THAT DOESN'T STOP US FROM OPERATIONS. IT JUST KIND OF KEEPS US. THAT STATE QUARANTINE SHIFT STILL HAS TO REMAIN WHERE IT'S AT, YOU KNOW.
BUT EVERYTHING ELSE, IT JUST KIND OF HINGING ON THOSE. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. WITH NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, WE CAN NOW RECONVENE INTO THE REGULAR SESSION. THERE ARE NO OTHER ITEMS ON OUR AGENDA TONIGHT. DO I HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO ADJOURN. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND THE MOTION TO ADJOURN. ALL RIGHT, LET'S VOTE.
PLEASE ALLOW THE RECORD TO SHOW THE MOTION PASSED. 5 TO 0. WE ARE ADJOURNED.
