This is about the budget. So I'm 17. Please. But it doesn't have. It's about the budget. Yes, but it doesn't have the details, period. That's what you've got to change that. That's the thrust of what has come almost on every single item. And I go back to the other one. I was going to comment on something relative to not reconvening the Council of Trent in order to appoint a new city manager. But that got lost in other. And all the previous stuff that was up here.

I would like one of you to explain to me what you're voting on. Make you Miss Cantrell. Vice Mayor Andres. Canterbury Ranga customer Margot. Yes. I just wanted to thank the community again for this budget. I know that it took many community meetings. I want to highlight and raise up a few things that we were able to accomplish. I think it's amazing that we're going to be able to do some pilot programs with homeless services on the weekends. Homelessness is not a monday through Friday 9 to 5, and the opportunity to be able to have these outreach teams on the weekend is crucial. Through the mayor's recommendation, we're adding a refuge team, a clean team, which will be instrumental in keeping our community clean and safe. A lot of our summer youth programs in partnership with partners of Parks, who was so gracious to bring forward an extra $25,000 to make sure that we had the summer programing and our parks additional library hours. I mean, this really is a robust budget and I appreciate every member of the community who came forward to give their opinion and input. I want to thank each and every one of my colleagues who was very thoughtful about the things that they advocated for and against. And I want to thank the staff for their excellent work throughout the year, ensuring that we start from a place of fiscal responsibility. And I really, really also appreciate Mr. John GROSS and grace for their continued commitment to the fiscal policies that keep this city sound. So thank you very much to my colleagues for voting on those very fiscally prudent policies. And then thank you for our budget team for always ensuring that we're we're keeping those in mind. And with that, I asked my colleagues support on this very important item that has a lot of stuff in it. Thank you. Thank you. Please cast your votes. Motion carries.
