Okay, seeing that, I'm going to ask that the council submit questions, if they have additional questions, so that we can take a 10-minute break before the council meeting.
I see the city attorney is... Yeah, Madam Mayor, as Finance Director indicated, our process is a little bit different this time around based on charter language that calls for the city council to actually set the time and date for the public hearing on the budget.
I see, so you need a motion.
A motion and an action on that item.
Very good.
Council Member James.
The attorney, did you have a recommended date for that?
Can I make a motion to a particular date?
It's on the agenda.
Yeah, it is in the agenda.
It's for the June 9th City Council meeting.
All right, I'll make the motion to agendize for June 9th.
Hearing on that 7 p.m.
And I had questions, but I guess I'll have to mail those sick and second the motion so we have a motion by councilmember Jane second by councilmember Chilwell For the staff recommendation sitting June 9th at 7 o'clock for the budget deliberation Yeah
I have a question, which is, I know that we're trying to speed this through because of time, but I think that having the discussion is very valuable.
And rather than, I mean, we can still make a motion to set a time for the public discussion, but I almost feel like that will be too late for some of the questions I'd like to ask.
I know that the suggestion has been to submit these in writing, but I feel that the public input and the council members asking questions and the public responding to some of these things is a vital part of a budget process, meaning this is a $1.7 billion budget.
To simply speed this along and go through the presentation because of time doesn't seem like the best process to approve a $1.7 billion budget.
I don't know if we have a way to do this, but I almost feel like I almost want to continue this, maybe even to, I don't know, continue discussion in public, because I think it should be done in public, not on emails and not in questions being asked on the side.
The recommendation is to have the public hearing with more counsel and public input on June 9th at 7 p.m.
