We're going to proceed to our ceremonial items at this time , and I'm going to call on Chaplain Lance Tamplin with Gent iva Hospice to lead us in our invocation, after which our Mayor Pro Tem will lead us in our pledges of allegiance. So please stand as you are able. All right. So I know we're praying for a couple of, we have the budget meeting, right? And, boy, that's not fun.

It's 1110 on Tuesday, August 11th and I'm calling this special council meeting to order. Normally we would have citizen comments at this time but we don't have anybody signed up for that but we always welcome citizen comments before we hold a meeting and everybody who wishes to speak can do so, has three minutes to do so. But our agenda for this special meeting is the canvassing of the returns and declaring the results of the August 1st special election runoff for District 4 council member after which we will administer the oath of office to Councilman-elect Tim Green, the successful candidate in that election. We'll also take an opportunity to say our thank yous and goodbyes to Councilman Braden Rose in recognition for his service to this council as representative of District 4. It's great to see so many friends, family here to support Councilman-elect Tim Green. It's a special moment for him and it's a special moment for all of those who have been and will continue to be his support system as he serves on this council because he's gonna need your support and your prayers. We all up here know how important that is . He shoulders a lot of responsibility as we all do in the office that we take. He knows it's a demanding job. He already knows that.

Welcome today. I'm now going to open the regular City Council meeting of the Lubbock City Council for July 28, 20 26. The City Council will recess into executive session in accordance with Texas Government Code 551.071 to consult with and seek advice of the City Legal Council and 551.072 to discuss the purchase, exchange, or value of real property. The City Council is recessing at 12.02 p.m. Welcome, everybody. It is Tuesday's election week in the City Council in the Ways to Green and Open Session. We're going to take up our ceremonial items. And at this time, I call on Pastor Joe Horger with Bible Mission, followed by Councilman Martinez Garcia, who will lead us in the U.S. and Texas Pledges of Allegiance. Will you all please stand? I'm going to read a few scriptures written by a very privileged individual. He was a first cousin of Jesus Christ in that he became the Apostle John. He writes in his first epistle that which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the word of life. For life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show unto you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us. And so we're praying unto that one that condescended, because he cares about what takes place in this world. He cares about what takes place even in this meeting. So let's bow our heads and have a word of prayer. Father in heaven, we're so thankful that …

But just everybody this is National Hot Dog Day so everybody go eat a hot dog for lunch or dinner or whatever. It's one of my favorite things to eat. It's usually on Saturday so people who know me know I always have hot dogs on Saturday so. We're glad to be back together and hopefully we can make a little bit more progress on some other subjects that we have to cover today with Hillary. We're glad to have her back again to lead us through this process and glad she thought well of us to return and think that she might have some hope of getting something good out of us in this time together. And so let's try to make this time as productive as possible. We'll go till noon or if we get done early and we're all in agreement. Shut it down and if we still got stuff to talk about we can go a little bit longer. But it's kind of our scheduled time to end.

Now I'm going to call this meeting of the City Council to order. We are convening now for the purpose of a work session regarding items for presentation and discussion on issues that might require in-depth consideration by the City Council. No action will be taken by the City Council in this work session. So we're going to discuss presentations regarding our planning and goals and budget priorities for the City Council. I know you've all had a chance to speak with Hillary here. Hillary, we appreciate you working with us and hope that the time we have together today is profitable. I know Dr. Wilson has to leave about 2.30, so we want to keep this process moving forward. My goal when we're done here next week is that our City Manager can take something of value away from this that helps him in his budget process so that he doesn't, when I look at him and say, did you get anything out of this? He doesn't go, oh, again this year, like we haven't been. I want something concrete for him. And I know that, you know, we've been discussing stuff that some things that have budget implications, some things may not have budget implications. Some things may be for this budget year. Some things may be for three, four, five years out. So, you know, there's a lot we need to discuss. And so I don't think you want to start off with anything or just turn it right over to Hillary?
