[00:00] I don't call it over the records given to me by the City Council Tuesday, November 18th, 2025.

[00:07] Number two, public input, that's given to the personal graces.

[00:11] We have none.

[00:12] Three A, claims list.

[00:15] Motion to approve.

[00:16] Second.

[00:17] Socle.

[00:18] Hi.

[00:19] Hi.

[00:20] Jones.

[00:21] Hi.

[00:22] Farther.

[00:23] Hi.

[00:24] 3B.

[00:25] The budget amendment 26 that's your run.

[00:27] I think it's kept reencumbered by a fiscal year, 2425 expenditures for various city-managed funds.

[00:35] Is that the same one we went over?

[00:37] No, this is for all the funds that count on this over.

[00:41] The last one was pretty much it.

[00:44] Lots of different funds.

[00:46] General funds, street and alley funds, street and stadium funds.

[00:49] We'll include your report which will be given to you in a lot of capital funds.

[01:16] I'll make Washington for this.

[01:19] This panel is for a lot better than the last one.

[01:22] Jones.

[01:23] Hi.

[01:24] Moons.

[01:25] Hi.

[01:26] Dokel.

[01:27] Hi.

[01:28] Easter.

[01:29] I'm Harper.

[01:30] Hi.

[01:31] Three C, two minutes from the November 4th, 2025 record meeting.

[01:35] Motion to approve.

[01:36] Second.

[01:37] Easter.

[01:39] Hi.

[01:40] Barn.

[01:41] Jones.

[01:42] Hi.

[01:43] Hi.

[01:44] Harper.

[01:45] Hi.

[01:47] Ans, dances and music in the alley.

[01:50] What has been done with Ottawa County?

[01:53] We have the county's in civil assembly demolition of the tiger structures?

[01:56] This is an agreement that Travis and Mike Ferness work out where we will provide limited

[02:04] will provide limited assistance in demolition of some of the dilapidating houses and structures

[02:13] that we have in the town and so it's just an agreement that says that they will help us

[02:21] as funds are available within the city and it was made clear to us in negotiating the agreement

[02:30] that it would probably be minimal help but we figured that any help was better than that.

[02:36] They talked about NIMO 2 or 3 at a time and then go to something else and they're coming

[02:39] back and doing 2 or 3 more so.

[02:41] But that saves us several thousand dollars every time they do quite any of them, right?

[02:47] Do we get to pick which ones?

[02:49] I don't know.

[02:51] We could.

[02:52] But take the worst ones.

[02:55] Yeah.

[02:56] Yeah.

[02:57] That's my point.

[02:58] Yeah.

[04:39] We discussed previously that these are

[04:43] They really don't apply to us because we don't have jury trials. Therefore, we don't need these in our ordinances

[04:50] Um, and they affect the feet ordinance so

[04:55] We discussed our recommended repeal of that because we're never going to have a jury trial in the city of Miami

[05:02] Um, it's cost prohibitive if nothing else and just so everyone knows we'll be seeing a

[05:09] Several of these sorts of lists where we're repealing antiquated outdated ordinances to get

[05:15] Matters in order so that we can put the feet ordinance in
