From the transcript
Thank you. Yeah, I'd like to speak to my reason for seconding the move to postpone, particularly I will note that this item was on the addendum, and so we really didn't get much time to review it. I actually do have concerns with both sections 2 and sections 4, and if given more lead time, would have liked to talk with my colleagues, especially in a committee meeting, about some of the language and the choices that were made in those sections. Directions. I also— I also am curious if the Public Safety Committee meeting agendas are so full, why today's canceled meeting was not rescheduled to keep us on a monthly cadence, and/or if there is a plan to reschedule.
