▶ 28:08 Speaker 4: Uh, Councillor, Jamal Dean?

▶ 28:11 Maya Jamaleddine: It's, um, Pally will be scheduled for the 20th. Um, I am still working on scheduling that, um, but we are hoping to schedule it on the 20th.

▶ 28:22 Mark Garipay: Okay. March 20th. And Just, I'm not great with the, the remote stuff. Can, can I still be in the chamber or do I have to be, we won't be having anyone in the chamber fully remotes. We're doing, we gonna do it from our house. Right. Um,

▶ 28:35 Speaker 4: Yeah. Right. I'm,

▶ 28:36 Mark Garipay: I just want clarification. I'm not, I'm not saying I'm opposed to it. I just wanna make sure I answer. Yeah,

▶ 28:40 Leila Migliorelli: You would do it from your house. I mean, I suppose you could sit here and appear like that on the camera, so,

▶ 28:45 Speaker 6: But, but our clerk will be remote too,

▶ 28:49 Speaker 1: Unless you want me to be No, that's alright. I'll be here with you if

▶ 28:53 Speaker 6: You, I'm sorry. I don't, I don't mean, I don't mean to make it confusing. I just wanna make sure I understand. No,

▶ 28:58 Maya Jamaleddine: No, it's actually a good question. It's a good question. And also for our newer, uh, newest, uh, members, uh, during Covid, we did have some members who chose to, um, still be in the chamber and, uh, participate from the Chamber, uh, while we were all remote. So it's really by choice. If you would like to come to the Chamber and, um, uh, you know, participate and join the meeting from the Chamber, that's totally fine. I do think that during that time, uh, the rest of the members, uh, uh, joined remotely. Uh, in addition to the,

▶ 29:34 Leila Migliorelli: I would just say that for ease, if you're, I don't know that this format could accommodate for a whole remote meeting. So if like one person was in here, I believe at the time when we had a person in City, in City Hall Chamber, um, was in that room and they were on their own laptop, that's an option too. But you would have to be on your own laptop. So, motions on the table. Um, any other questions on discussion? All right.

▶ 30:02 Speaker 4: Um, Adam Clerk, will you call the role please?

▶ 30:05 Speaker 1: Councilor Occhio? Yes. Councilor gpe? Yes. Councilor Hamilton? Yes. Council Councilor Aldine? Yes.

▶ 30:17 Speaker 1: Councilor Stewart? Yes. Van Deve? Yes. Van De. Sorry. President Midgley Rally? Yes. Motion passes. I'm, I'm here too. Oh, I'm sorry. That's all.

▶ 30:27 Speaker 4: I only have seven there. I'm sorry.

▶ 30:28 Devin Romanul: And for the record, I owed Yes. Motion passes.

▶ 30:32 Speaker 3: I will not be denied.

▶ 30:35 Leila Migliorelli: Um, that motion passes. And just a reminder, as of right now, remote participation allowance expires on March 31st of this year unless the governor chooses to renew it. So, um, our ability to have remote people have hybrid meetings or fully remote meetings will, will end unless state government takes action otherwise.
