You don't have to be here for the council meeting, obviously. Thanks. Okay, so for ID 2026-345, this is Cathy Mercer of 466 Pleasant Street. She's being reappointed to the Melrose Library Board of Trustees for a three-year term to expire the last day of February 2029. So Ms. Mercer very much wanted to join us, but she teaches Mondays and absolutely can't make it on Mondays. So given this is the last Monday that we have to move these appointments along, we're going to proceed without her. For members of the public or anybody who reviews this meeting in the future, there's always materials available in the agenda portal, sometimes resumes or letters that people have written, or accomplishments or things they want to do the year ahead. So you can always see the information there. So what's the will of the committee?

▶ 5:21 Speaker 1: Make a motion to recommend.

▶ 5:22 Speaker 3: Second.

▶ 5:22 Ryan Williams: Okay. Motion to recommend made by Councilor Finocchiaro, seconded by President Freeman. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Aye. Any opposed? Okay, that passes. And finally, ID 2026-454, reappointment of Tim Bailey, 62 Glen Street, to the planning board for a five-year term, said term to expire on the last day of February 2031. And Mr. Bailey has been working out of the country for a couple of weeks, and so he is not able to join us today.
