I. Madam Secretary, please close the voting. Announce the results. 3939 as Resolution 882 has been adopted. I will ask that if you are not sitting around for the rest of our meeting, we do have a packed agenda. So if you could Exodus quietly as possible and leave those doors closed as you get into the hallway so that we can move right along. If you're watching in overflow and you came for something other than what we just voted on, there is lots of room open in chambers now. And so you're invited to come join us in chambers. Now, Madam Secretary, if you could please put the next item on our screens. And Councilman Hines, will you please put Bill seven, seven, six on the floor? Councilman Hines. Oh. Could you put seven, seven, six on the floor, please? I guess. Mr. President, I move seven, seven, six for adoption. I budget. This one's ordered published. If I. You know what? I want it published. Thank you, Councilman. It has been moved and seconded. Councilman Herndon, you have a motion to postpone. Why don't you go ahead with your motion? Yes. Thank you, Mr. President. I move the council bill 19 0776 be postponed to Monday, September 23rd, 2019. All right. We have a move and a second, Madam Secretary, on that motion. We good to go. Okay. So, comments by members of council. Councilman Herndon? Yes. Thank you, Mr. President. I assumed everyone was in chambers about this vacation. I'm just kidding. So vacations are rather mundane topics where adjacent property owners have the opportunity to take right of way that's next to their processed process. If the city does not deem it has a city use and the rather mundane, as I said, and this is the first opportunity that came in to the full council when we heard this two weeks ago. But to ensure two interesting things happen and when I as I have the ability, the honor of chairing land use and transportation and infrastructure. First was a lot of my colleagues had concerns about the overall vacation process in regards to why we are beholden to certain rules. And I wanted my colleagues to know we couldn't have a full conversation that night. That day, excuse me, but we will be bringing vacations back to the council for a full discussion. So I wanted to make sure I put that on your radar so that you have the ability to come and learn more about that. If there's a will of this council to even ask the question, should we have vacations at all? Because that question came up. But more specifically to the vacation that hand that's before us. During that time, council members had some serious concerns about the size of the vacation that was moving forward, the community concerns about how what is the currently used for right now. And they brought those concerns up during the committee that I thought was that were very well said. Well, over the course of the two weeks, the applicant moving forward about the vacation heard some of the concerns that council and the community had and is requesting a four week postponement because they would like to revisit their plans should this vacation go through. And so I believe that since the applicant hearing what concerns council members have community and wants to revisit their plans for week. The four week postponement certainly seems appropriate. And just to let my colleagues know the postponement in no way beholden to them to supporting the vacation, that's absolutely not the case and just allows the applicant to have more conversations with the community and revisit that. So I, I would encourage my colleagues to support this four week postponement. And then we'll have an opportunity to look at the merits of the updated vacation on September 23rd. Thank you, President. Thank you, Councilman Herndon, Councilman Hines. Thank you, Mr. President. Procedural question for week postponement, that is. And I know that sometimes we have 30 days to vote where it's automatically adopted. I just want to make sure that we still have the opportunity to deliberate and vote as we would today. Yeah, I will defer to our legal counsel, but since this is not a contract certification, I don't believe that is bound by any shot clock. Kirsten Crawford Legislative. Council. And that's correct. So, yes, we retain all rates. Thank you, Ms.. Crawford. And thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, Councilman. Any other questions or comments before we vote on the postponement? All right. None. Madam Secretary, roll call on the postponement. Herndon I. Black. I see tobacco I. Flynn I. Gilmer I. Hinds High. Kashmere High. Kenny Ortega High. Sandoval, I. Sawyer, I. Torres, I. Mr. President. Hi, Madam Secretary. Please close the voting. Announce the results. 13 eyes. 13 eyes. Bill seven. Seven six has been postponed to September 23rd. Madam Secretary, will you please put the next item on our screens? And, Councilman Hines, will you please vote council vote 803 on the floor.
