▶ 1:06:28 Jen Grigoraitis: Seeing how objection public comment is now closed. We are going to begin tonight with our first budget hearing and just before we begin and I know Council grapes wants to say something. I just wanted to frame this a little bit for our viewing audience at home and my colleagues. We're trying something a little different this year where we've asked. The mayor's office to have department heads put budgets on iqm2, which is the public meeting portal a week in advance. So that both counselors can review those and members of the public as well. I would also remind folks that there are two budget documents from the mayor's office that are available on the city website the dynamic budget presentation that mayor broader spoke about earlier as well as a supplemental budget doc that goes through Department by Department. I would respectfully request that those documents move to the home page of the website if possible for easy access by the public. Well is before us tonight is the option to move the bottom line on each. Department's budget, we would vote to move the entire budget at the conclusion of our process in June. Just for our newer counselors a reminder that what is our option is to reduce or reject any budget line in any of those how those reductions or rejections are allocated within a budget are the purview of the administration and not this body and I also just remind counselors that at any time is always you can feel free to speak with department heads. And if you choose to send questions to Chief of Staff Fleischman those will be uploaded to a public document as well for viewing so Council gripe. Thank you. I'd be

▶ 1:08:01 Mark Garipay: remiss if I didn't make my opinions known with regards to how the budget process will be debated this year. I understand the intent of not having in-person presentations for some of the smaller budgets. And I supported this idea. However, I believe a smaller budget to be those of volunteer boards and commissions that range in the three to five thousand veterans three to five thousand range. I did not think that it would include Department budgets that is less than five million dollars. I personally I personally believe that all department heads that manage a budget that is made up of taxpayers money should present an answer questions in person. That gives the council department heads in residents a chance to learn each learn about each department how the allocated allocated money will be spent understand their goals and their accomplishments. The way the charter is written this legislative body has limited Authority and I believe the number one responsibility of this council is to approve the city's budget. I personally do not believe that the process can be open and transparent. The transparent one if the department heads do not appear in person. So I just wanted to say that I appreciate it. Thank you

▶ 1:09:13 Speaker 6: president sonella point

▶ 1:09:15 Christopher Cinella: of personal privilege. I guess. I'm just wanted to thank you for your memos that you sent down. And thank Council guy play for the the idea in a sense. And I think yeah, we've had a couple budgets over the years that that went pretty long. And obviously we're on WebEx and we had more meetings because of that but I think that this process is going to work to be streamlined. It's going to be transparent. It's going to be everything's gonna be loaded up all your questions that you might have. You just have to do the work. Ahead of time if you have questions. Feel them through Margot and hopefully you get answers if people don't get answers to the questions, you know, we could still have folks come in. to to present but
