▶ 6:54 Cal Finocchiaro: this takes the place of an attendance roll call and provides notice of the quorum for the record. In accordance with the open meeting law, this meeting is recorded and broadcast on our local cable access channel, MMTV, as well as live-streamed on MMTV's website. It'll be available for future viewing through the city of Melrose's website meeting portal. At this time, if there are no objections, with unanimous consent, I will approve the minutes from our last meeting on January 20th. Is that correct? Mm-hmm. 2026. Seeing no objections, those minutes are approved. We are moving on to the public comment portion of the meeting. This is a time where any member of the public may speak in person or remotely.
