I appreciate it. podcast-host

I think that's what I said. podcast-host

Yes, sir. podcast-host

So I I too am excited about uh the prospect of having Raquel come on board. podcast-host

I think she's going to be a great addition to the city. podcast-host

But unlike everybody else, I'm not in favor of the contract. podcast-host

Uh I think it is excessively overpriced uh for a variety of reasons. podcast-host

Um I could go through all those, but it's clear to me where the vote is tonight and I hate to belabor the point. podcast-host

Um there are a couple of things I do want to point out though. podcast-host

First of all, we're not Miami and uh comparing our prices to those in Miami I think is disingenuous. podcast-host

The second thing is the brochure that we put out for recruiting was very clear that it said that the starting salary is three hundred thousand dollars. podcast-host

Everybody that applied knew what it was. podcast-host

Uh next thing when you talk about per capita uh expenses, those other cities that you compared us to, Mayor, are individuals who have been in those jobs for years, sometimes decades. podcast-host

And so I don't think that's a realistic comparison as well. podcast-host

Um but I think the largest concern I have is that legal opinion that you asked for from D. podcast-host

Wayne. podcast-host

I had an opportunity to talk with him. podcast-host

And podcast-host

As he says in his memo, the Charter is unambiguous when it talks about podcast-host

the fact that the city manager must reside in the city during their term of office. podcast-host
