a term expiring February 28, 2024, and talking numbers 0319 message in order for the confirmation of the reappointment of Matilda Drayton as a member of the Boston Housing Authority Monitoring Committee for a term expiring February 28, 2024. Thank you, Mr. Clarke. Now. Councilor O'Hara, chair of the Committee on Housing and Community Development, is seeking suspension of the rules and passage of these dockets. We had similar dockets in the last meeting, which we also suspended the rules and passed council of our review working to speak on this. Okay. Okay. We will take the vote on each docket separately. They cheer, they cheer. Recognizes District City Councilor Frank Baker, Counsel Baker. Thank you, Mr. President. I just want to make a point about the last meeting when we did suspend and pass the the new members for the the this housing board. At the at the time it was happening, I was unable to speak. I was having something going on. But I think it's our duty for for confirmations, especially when they're not three appointments, new people. I'm sure you don't know what the Housing Housing Board does. So the reason for hearings and reason for confirmation of the people that are coming on those boards for us to find out what they do . It isn't just asking people who they are, what they like, what color you have. It's what. Why are you good at going to be good for our city in this job? And actually, what does it what does the job entail? So we would also be asking VHA executives, probably, I would think, what what the task of the housing board is just a stake in him. Is that. Mr. President, I'm not. Look, these are all re appointments and we we routinely routinely suspended past reappointment. But I think with appointments, we should be looking we fight for confirmation powers school committee, I think at a baseline should come here and we should confirm those school committee appointments. That's something that we don't have in the original legislation that Eddie Eddie's dad put forth. The original legislation had city council confirmation powers within it. When the legislation came back to us, those those confirmation powers were taking out for the school committee, I stand up because there's a reason why we have confirmation powers. So just a statement. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, Counselor Baker. Thank you for those comments. They they are very helpful.
