>> Great, thank you. I am calling this meeting to order for Tuesday, October 6th. Clerk, if you could please do roll call. [ CALLING ROLL ] >> Thank you so much. And I want to remind our attendees about our commitment to civility, which is played, which was played as a part of the video that you just all heard. Any public comments that violate our commitment to civility or that fall outside of the board's jurisdiction will result in forfeiting your time and may limit your ability to comment for the rest of the meeting. I'm delegating to the clerk of the board the authority to mute commenters when their remarks do not comply with our commitment to civility. Due to an increase in discriminatory statements during public comment and our obligation to provide a discriminatory-free workplace under California law, your public comment will be forfeited at the first discriminatory statement. Please consider this your only warning. I also want to note that video provided information on how to access language interpretation. In the back of the chambers, there are headsets that can translate from Spanish to English and English to Spanish. And with that, we'll now hear public comment on items 1, 2, 4, and 5. And item number 3 was continued to the October 27th board meeting. We'll first have public comment in chambers. Good morning. >> Hi, I was hoping to speak on 3, but I'll wait. >> Excuse me. Hello, my name is Duane DeWitt. I'm from Roseland. Looking at item number 5, at the very end it …
