Thank
You
mr.
president,
Franklin
Barney,
225,
briar,
Brook,
Lane,
Cranston,
Rhode,
Island,
I'm,
not
sure
if
it's
a
document
item
or
not
but
I'm
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
the
congratulations
in
actually
when
I
remember
the
General
Assembly
walks
in
mr.
president
everybody's
concerned
that
something's
up
but
I'm
here
on
a
social
call
and
I'd
like
to
offer
my
congratulations
to
all
the
members
of
this
august
body
on
their
reelection
to
the
town
council.
F
And
if
you
know
me,
I
think
you
know
that
it's
Democrats
and
Republicans
Republicans
alike,
that
we
all
have
a
common
denominator
in
all
of
this.
And
the
common
denominator.
Is
that
we're
all
here
for
the
good
of
the
city
of
Cranston
I'm
here,
particularly
to
recognize
two
individuals
who
are
leaving
the
council
1
as
a
result
of
attrition
and
one
as
a
result
of
being
term
limited
and
I
just
like
to
say
that
there
would
be
a
third
recognized
as
well
and
without
pointing
any
fingers.
F
Councilman
BOTS
but
I
had
to
defer
it
to
Minority,
Leader
algea
and
your
citation
will
be
forthcoming
as
well
councilman.
But
but
this
body
and
I'll
be
very
brief,
but
this
body
often
times
as
a
former
school
committee
member,
has
a
most
difficult
task,
because
your
task
is
the
one
that
deals
with
the
public
most
directly
and
most
often,
whether
it
be
potholes
or
speeding.
Or
you
know,
bad
side,
streets,
snow,
plowing
and
yes,
councilman
santamaría,
even
coyotes.
F
So
I'm
proud
here
today
to
offer
a
citation
on
behalf
of
the
Senate
and
the
General
Assembly
to
my
two
friends
first
book
to
Mario
acetal,
who
has
faithfully
served
Ward
4th
for
six
years,
who
was
I,
consider
a
friend,
who's,
hardworking
and
who
I
know
is
going
nowhere
and
will
continue
to
help
the
people
of
Ward,
4
and
all
of
cranston
and
the
citation
is.
He
is
sponsored
by
myself,
mario
and
co-sponsored
by
Teresa,
Paiva
weed
the
president
and
Majority
Leader
Ruggeri.
E
A
B
H
Yes,
I
just
like
to
offer
a
small
amendment.
That
was
an
oversight
when
I
put
this
together
and
now
would
be
on
line
66,
which
is
the
he
is
now
blank,
not
part
of
the
resolution
that
it
would
just
say,
a
copy
of
this
resolution
will
be
sent
to
the
governor
and
members
of
the
energy
siting
board,
the
windsock
at
City
Council
and
the
borough
ville
town
council
on
Zagat
motion.
D
E
H
I
just
have
another
minor
amendment:
I
was
asked
by
the
Cranston
Conservation
Commission,
to
add
their
name
to
the
list
of
organizations
that
have
passed
similar
resolutions.
So
let's
put
that
on,
let's
put
them
first
on
line
51
before
environment
council
of
Rhode
Island
had
the
words
the
Cranston
Conservation
Commission.
Second
motion.
I
E
I
J
K
Just
like
to
make
a
known
the
motion,
I
think
this
whole
body
came
out
unanimously
for
this.
One
of
the
reasons
I
think
we
all
did
was
between
the
citizens
of
the
town
and
the
fact
that
to
town
councilman
came
to
this
body
and
asked
us
to
support
this
I
would
hope
that
if
we
as
City
Councilman
ever
went
to
another
city
and
ask
for
that
help
with
something
that
city
would
give
it
to
us
as
we're
giving
it
to
Birbal
tonight.
So
thank
you
for
unanimously
supporters.
L
You,
council
president
yeah
I
would
like
to
echo
what
constable
Farina
said
and
also
to
recognize
the
fact
that
we
had
some
of
our
citizens
that
Lobby
very
hard
and
spoke
to
us
on
the
campaign
trail
and
we're
very
passionate
about
the
issue
and
the
the
water
issues
or
something
that
I
think
you're
a
real
issue
and
could
affect
Cranston
as
well.
It's
not
just
a
feel-good
resolution,
but
it
it
could
have
some
impact
on
Cranston
as
well.
So
I
think
we
all
supported
this
in
committee
and
I
have
looked
forward
to
voting
for
it.
I
C
D
M
With
Ken
Mason
and
director
Cooper,
and
at
this
point
we
decided
we
were
going
to
hold
off
with
that
program,
because
the
sidewalks
that
are
in
question
are
very
limited
and
it
would
be
more
cost-effective
for
the
city
to
go
out
and
put
the
ashwaldt
with
us.
Sidewalk
is
raised
if
that
seems
to
cause
a
problem
to
spend
that
kind
of
money
on
a
program.
H
B
M
B
Moving
on
monthly
status,
update
on
school
projects
what's
happening
here
is
this
Wednesday.
The
solar
panels
would
be
turned
on
it,
Krantz
to
West
or
both
other
items
with
the
schools
and
the
AC
and
the
Heat
are
in
the
process
of
being
leans,
released
payments
released,
and
they
were
all
good
to
go
last
item
that
I
have
mr.
chairman,
ordinates
1116
2,
or
an
instant
amendment
of
title
8.1
of
the
code
of
the
city
of
Cranston
2005,
entitled
garbage
collection
and
disposal.
B
J
You
very
much
mr.
council,
president
I
put
this
change
in
on
this
current
ordinance
right
now.
If
you
pick
up
a
dumpster
between
the
hours
of
10:00
p.m.
at
night
and
7:00
a.m.
there's,
$100
fine
seems
like
a
lot
of
dumpster.
Companies
are
still
doing
it
in
the
wee
hours
of
the
morning,
so
this
ordinance
would
increase
the
fine
from
$100
to
$200,
leave
councilman
bots
and
council
vice-president
Santa
Maria
also
co-sponsored
it
with
me.
So
I
would
urge
passage.
Thank,
You.
N
Thank
you,
God's
president,
that
is
true
and
constant.
Alaska's
decided
to
propose
this
ordinance
or
to
modify
the
city
code
for
this.
It's
it's
a
definite
need.
I.
Think
councilman
Santamaria
would
agree
that
over
the
years
we've
been
on
the
council
that
waste
haulers,
not
the
company,
but
in
general
I
mean
waste.
Followers
come
and
pick
up
their
dumpsters
at
odd
hours.
In
really
in
certain
areas
of
the
city,
it
does
disturb
people
that
are
trying
to
get
a
night's
sleep
if
they're
coming
there
at
5:00
in
the
morning.
N
O
Said
good
ordinance
and
it's
even
better
now
that
we've
doubled
the
fine
certain
disposal.
Companies
are
not
getting
it
I,
don't
know
what
we're
gonna
do
if
they
still
do
it
after
two
hundred
dollars,
a
pop
for
per
dumpster.
So
maybe
we
look
at
the
new
council
can
look
at
enforcement
measures,
but
I
wholeheartedly
approve
this
and
I
urge
passage.
L
You
council
president,
well,
hopefully,
we
can
always
send
councilman
Palacios
out
on
his
early
morning
runs
chasing
the
vehicles
as
he
has
in
the
past,
but
hopefully
he
can
rest
a
little
bit
after
this.
But
I
want
to
thank
him
for
doing
this,
because
this
has
been
an
ongoing
issue
for
as
long
as
I've
been
on
the
council.
So
I
hope
this
puts
a
dent
in
it
and
Councilman
Santa
Maria
will
let
you
know
how
it
how
it
turns
out
and
I
would
support
I,
definitely
support
this.

O

Just
want
to
say
a
few
words
I
put
this
all
together
and
I
want
to
stay
with
an
errant
Garabedian
for
a
minute
limit
that
we
gave
ourselves
so
I'm
here,
sir
you'll
keep
it
within
four
minutes.
Thank
you.
Everybody!
Everybody
from
day,
one
my
family,
my
friends,
it's
been
an
honor
to
serve
as
your
councilman.
So
I
put
a
little
thing
together.
Spend
our
tax
dollars
wisely
return
phone
calls,
pay
it
forward,
be
a
gentleman,
be
a
peacemaker
compromise.
O
O
Remember
where
you
came
from
be
your
own
man
and
stay
true
to
yourself.
The
people
have
elected
you
because
they
trust
you
and
have
chosen
you
to
be
their
voice.
They
are
depending
on
you
to
make
the
tough
decisions
they'll
be
in
their
best
interests.
They're
gonna
be
tough
decisions
at
times.
Having
said
all
that,
it
is
an
honor
and
privilege
to
serve
as
your
counsel
in
the
last
10
years,
I
hope
in
some
small
way,
I.
O
A
B
It
is
I
who
stand
for
the
rest
of
you,
a
because
remember
what
we've
accomplished
in
the
last
four
years.
We
Dooley
don't
get
the
credit
that
we
deserve
we're
the
ones
going
to
the
committee
hearings,
we're
the
ones
who
away
from
our
family
we're
the
ones
who
are
passing
the
ordinance
for
all
these
jobs
that
are
created,
we're
the
ones
who
have
brought
all
these
businesses
into
the
city
and
give
them
tax
breaks.
So
it's
I
who
clap
for
you
guys.
B
I'm
down
but
I'm
not
out
I'll,
be
around.
As
you
know,
I
just
want
to
thank
my
family
because
the
brunt
of
you
know
missing
family
events
and
always
being
on
the
trail
and
doing
things
and
all
the
chicken
dinners
that
we
attended
over
last
year,
but
truly
thank
you.
Each
and
every
one
of
you
I
think
in
the
last
four
years.
This
is
the
smartest
and
the
brightest
councilmen
we've
accomplished
the
most
of
any
other
council,
probably
in
the
last
15
to
20
years.
So
thank
you.
L
L
N
N
People
in
the
ward
I
received
a
very
nice
card
in
the
mail
just
the
other
night,
from
a
resident
on
Auburn
about
the
stop
sign
that
we
added
on
Ivanhoe,
and
it's
just
little
things
like
that
that
go
a
long
way
in
making
the
city
great
I'm,
particularly
proud
of
the
Body
Works
ordinance
that
I
introduced.
Hopefully
that
gives
again
the
police
extra
teeth
in
trying
to
keep
the
city
a
place
that
everyone
can
be
proud
of
and
not
having
these
establishments
move
into
the
city
so
anyway,
thank
you
very
much.
N
O
This
is
presented
to
you,
council
president,
said
apprentice
to
Johnny
Leonie
junior
city
council,
president
from
January
2015
to
January
2017,
in
recognition
of
his
years
of
dedication,
commitment
and
service
the
city
of
Cranston,
his
leadership,
the
city
council.
President.
It's
been
a
pleasure
to
work
with
you.
I
was
president
before
I
was
hope.
I
did
a
good
job
following
your
footsteps
and
new
guy
who
chases
after
dumpsters
so
who
I
think's
gonna
serve
us
well
in
Ward
5,
so
well,
but
on
behalf
of
the
this
is
a
Cranston.
A
I
A
I
expect
to
be
in
the
council
a
few
more
years.
You
know,
Mario
said
it
right
and
donbot
said
it
right.
This
has
been
probably
the
best
counsel
that
I've
served
on
in
my
entire
career
in
this
trance,
the
City
Council
were
able
to
work
together.
We
met
up
a
little
dispute
with
Rome
I
know
we
work
together
as
a
group
for
the
betterment
of
the
city
of
Cranston.
A
The
tax
rates
in
this
city
has
an
increased
in
four
years
and
the
reason
was
the
trains,
the
City
Council.
That
may
introduces
the
budget
way,
the
ones
who
pass
it
and
we
haven't
increased
taxes
in
this
city
in
the
past
four
years
and
that's
a
testament
to
the
members
of
the
City
Council
and
the
people
who
elected
them,
because
that's
why
we
here
to
protect
the
taxpayers
of
the
city
of
Cranston
to
do
what
job
as
elected
officials
and
we
and
I
think
we've
all
done
an
outstanding
job
and
I
I.
A
A
A
C
C
A
P
Mr.
president,
report
on
the
hiring
of
special
counsel,
consultants,
etc
was
distributed
to
the
council.
Members
by
the
legal
department.
I
have
two
requests
from
members
of
Harrison
fire
department
to
continue
in
service.
For
one
year,
each
I
have
deputy
chief
James
Beckman,
who
will
reach
his
55th
birthday
this
week
as
a
requested
to
be
continued
in
service
and
I
have
documentation
showing
that
he's
eligible
to
continue.
E
P
I
L
P
Mr.
president,
right
now,
discussions
continue
between
the
city
and
the
bidders
who
have
the
proposal
to
enter
into
a
lease
agreement
with
an
option
to
purchase.
There's
been
an
appraisal
completed
by
the
city.
There's
been
a
review
of
that
appraisal,
completed
by
an
appraiser
representing
the
bidders.
The
results
of
that
have
gone
back
to
the
city's
original
appraiser
who's,
reviewed
them
and
made
a
recommendation
of
the
tax
assessor,
and
the
next
step
will
be
for
the
tax
assessor
to
set
the
appraised
value
of
the
property.
P
P
It's
been
a
while,
since
the
face-to-face
meeting
there
was
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
between
the
appraisers.
That's
taken
quite
a
bit
of
time.
There's
really
been
no
cause
for
a
face-to-face
meeting
until
the
two
sides
had
their
expert
opinions,
so
to
speak,
lined
up
from
the
two
appraisers.
Alright.
P
P
P
A
lease
term
I
know
I'm
sorry
on
the
price
for
the
lease
payment,
but
then
at
some
point
the
bidders
made
an
indication
that
they
wanted
to
have
an
option
price
to
have
the
ability
to
exercise
the
purchase
option.
So
now
this
is
the
we
need
to
set
the
if
they
exercised
the
purchase
option
which
they
say
they
intend
to
do.
We
need
to
know
what
the
price
is
gonna
be
and
that's.
The
price
were
looking
at
now.
Okay,
thank
you.
Okay,.
Q
David
Leo's
II
had
done
it
originally
back
in
oh
eight
through
2010.
He
has
a
faculty
position
with
CCRI,
so
he's
now,
essentially
a
part-time
solicitor.
He
got
a
severe
decrease
in
pay
he's
about
twelve
thousand
dollars
a
year
versus
the
thirty.
The
two
we
needed
judge
Buchi
of
the
district
court
made
a
super
Monday
at
district
court,
every
Monday
Krantz
and
it's
not
Monday
on
Wednesday,
but
we
needed
to
hire
independent
contractors
to
handle
the
criminal
prosecution.
Q
Well,
prosecution:
we
have
a
lot
of
cases
that
are
going
to
district
court.
These
are
the
misdemeanor
prosecute
prosecution's
in
district
court,
and
we
probably
have
about
a
hundred
files
a
week
that
are
prosecuted
every
week.
I
handle
it
sometimes
to
cover
attorney
O'neil,
sometimes
covers
it.
An
attorney
Aglio
Z
can
offer
cover
it
in
the
summer,
but
we
need
someone
there
almost
every
week
doing
the
trials
and
the
regular
portion
of
it.
Q
Since
attorney
Aglio
Z
started
to
have
conflicts
with
his
schedule
because
you
literally
have
to
carve
out
one
or
two
days
a
week.
Attorney
Malay
and
attorney
Catalano
help
us
out
as
independent
contractors.
I
want
to
reassess
it.
We
have
a
new
district
court
judge,
but
Judge
Buchi
as
part
of
her
order
about
a
year
ago,
wanted
to
solicitors
what
happens
in
Criminal,
Court
and
I
started
it
myself
to
get
an
experience.
Q
Is
she
an
attorney
in
the
court
dealing
with
her
judge
Buchi,
but
then
we
needed
a
attorney
in
the
hallway
to
try
to
work
out
the
criminal
cases,
so
it
got
a
little
more
expensive
but
that
her
feeling
was
I,
never
want
Cranston
not
to
be
represented.
So
we
had
a
lot
of
moving
parts,
so
we
needed
some
help
and
that's
what
those
costs
were
so.
Q
Off
I'm
off
in
there
at
times
and
so
attorney
O'neil
covers
it's
basically
of
about
four
or
five
people
that
will
cover
those
hearings.
Unfortunately,
we
do
have
conflicts
and
we
need
outside
counsel.
We
literally
have
now
actually
starting
in
the
last
month
or
two
Cranston
has
two
full
days
in
district
court
before
Judge
carullo.
So
we
have
a
lot
of
coverage
issues.
These
are
set
to
day
hearings
every
week,
so
criminal
and
we
can't
blow
these
off.
Q
You
know
these
are
criminal
prosecutions
so
and,
to
be
honest
with
you,
since
the
colonel
wing
Quist
has
come
in,
we've
had
many
more
cases
going
to
court,
I
think
there's
just
been
more
enforcement,
so
but
I
won't
look
at
maybe
next
fiscal
year
at
the
budget
season.
Maybe
I'll
make
one
of
the
independent
contractors
if
they
will
agree
more
of
a
flat
fee
that
a
solicitor
would
have
okay.
Thank.
B
Q
Q
Has
some
other
projects
I've
tried
to
keep
the
solicitors
fees
lean
and
mean,
but
sometimes
attorney
Marcelo
will
handle
a
matter.
That's
normally
outside
his
regular
duties
is
the
assistant
solicitor
and,
as
a
courtesy,
I
pay
him
on
a
separate
invoice.
He
keeps
it
pretty
reasonable,
but
I
sometimes
I
asked
him
to
go
outside
of
his
Zoning
Board
duties,
but.
B
L
You,
council
president,
just
to
follow
up
councilman
steak
goes
a
question.
Yeah
I
do
know
mr.
Catalano
very
well,
and
he
just
would
say
that
yeah
he
worked
for
about
19
years
as
a
full-time
prosecutor
for
Providence
in
the
law
department.
So
you've
got
and
I
know
mr.
Malloy.
He
has
a
lot
of
experience,
but
you've
got
some
really
experienced
people
trying
those
cases
and
it
takes
some
some
expertise,
some
special
expertise
and
but
I
think
we
have
two
really
very
good
prosecutors.
P
Mr.
president,
I
did
speak
to
Tony
lavatory
about
this
and
talked
to
mr.
Barone
about
it
and
it
it
is
possible.
It
could
be
done.
There
were
some
questions
raised
about
how
you
know.
Is
it
the
right
size?
Is
it
the
right
place
to
do
it?
Would
it
would
we
take
out
the
basketball
court?
Is
the
basketball
court
used
I
understand,
there's
a
perception
that
tennis
courts
are
not
used
and
it
might
be
a
better
use,
but
is
that
enough
space?
Would
we
be
taking
away
a
basketball
court?
P
That's
used
by
kids
in
the
neighborhood,
so
the
answer
is,
it
is
feasible
to
do
it.
We
need
a
little
more
information
to
determine
if
it's
the
best
use
of
the
land
and
then,
of
course,
you
know,
we
don't
have
any
money
in
the
parks
and
recreation
budget
to
allocate
to
this.
So
we
would
need
a
budget
source,
a
source
of
funding,
to
pay
for
the
work.
H
I,
don't
think
so.
I
think
one
of
the
advantages
of
the
that
I
saw
of
the
site
is
there's
an
existing
fence,
so
at
least
initially
that
fence
could
be
used
to
see
if
the
dog
park
was
a
popular
venue.
Okay
and
another
question
that
I
had
that
I
didn't
raise
before
but
is
could
Public
Works
do
the
do
some
asphalt
removal
and
you
know
basic.
P
And
so
forth,
possibly
yes,
but
the
problem
is
to
do
that.
You'd
have
to
take
the
fence
out.
So
then
we'd
have
to
pay.
Somebody
put
a
new
fence
up
yeah
you
have
to
take
a
part
of
the
fence.
I
would
right
so,
but
that
is
possible
if
you're
I
didn't
understand
I
guess
originally.
If
the
thought
was
just
to
leave
the
asphalt
down
for
the
tennis
courts
and
use
it
as
a
park
put
a
gate
up
there,
let
people
let
the
dogs
aren't
around
see
if
it
works,
that's
a
sort
of
a
different
question.
P
H
My
understanding
is
that
it
was
used
for
a
time
by
dog
owners
on
an
informal
basis
and
then
the
city
put
up
a
sign
no
dogs
allowed,
and
that
was
the
end
of
that.
So
I
think
there
is
I,
mean
I,
know,
there's
general
support
in
the
community
for
dog
park
and
I
think
there's
neighborhood
support
for
it
also.
N
I,
don't
know
if
anyone's
been
over
to
the
east
side
near
the
end.
It's
Henderson
bridge,
but
Providence
has
a
dog
park
over
there
and
I
think
it's
supported
by
some
sort
of
Association
as
well,
but
they
carved
out
what
it
looks
like
wooded
trails
and
it
goes
to
a
clearing
in
used
to
be
grass
now
it's
mud,
but
nevertheless
it
has
it's
a
great
area
for
the
dogs
to
run
in
they
put
down
wood
chips,
etc
and
I'm
curious.
N
If
something
of
the
same
vein
and
I
may
be
taking
an
idea
from
one
of
the
council
elects.
But
the
area
where
the
concrete
plan
was
going
to
go
seems
like
a
perfect
spot
for
our
dog
park,
because
I
think
it's
open
space
and
I
don't
know
if
it
can
be
used
for
that
sort
of
use,
but
again
there's
a
clearing.
There's
areas
where
you
could
actually
carve
out
paths
through
the
through
the
trees.
N
There's
a
northeast
tree
right,
almost
next
door,
maybe
the
view
walnut,
donate
woodchips
or,
in
bargain
rate,
so
anyway,
I
email,
Peter
la
polar
about
that
see
if
the
land
could
be
used
for
that,
there's
some
sort
of
notion
that
maybe
it
has
to
be
pristine
and
cannot
be
changed.
Although
we
have
a
building
there
and
asphalt
so
not
sure
how
that
would
be,
but
again,
I
would
urge
this
council
in
the
next
two
years
to
find
some
way
to
do
a
dark
Park.
N
This
city
really
needs
one
and
whether
its
owners
going
on
athletic
fields
and
shutting
the
gates
and
learning
their
dogs
aren't
around
I've,
seen
that
as
a
little
league
president
or
just
having
a
place
where
they
can
just
run
and
and
be
gated
in
and
not
be
in
danger
being
hit
by
a
car.
These
are
one
of
the
nice
to
haves
I,
think
in
a
community
that
would
attract
people
to
cranston
and
make
them
want
to
stay
here
so
anyway.
Throwing
that
idea
out
there.
N
H
M
O
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
A
O
O
But
more
can't
get
done,
cause
we're
pasty
to
date
for
the
pavement
yes
number
ten,
the
entire
street,
wherever
they
dug
it
up,
but
long
okay,
stretch
from
Midvale
up
to
chase
I
would
say
a
little
past.
The
school
there's
all
dug
up
bones,
I'll
check
into
that
for
now,
yeah
I'm
guessing
the
spring
time.
So
I'll
call
you
as
a
as
a
citizen.
Okay,.
G
You
Kosta
president
Mini,
so
first
I
just
want
to
thank
Jack
Verona
in
the
administration
did
a
great
job
with
the
snow
storm.
My
hills
were
plowed
I
got
a
couple
of
calls
complimenting
so
I
want
kudos
to
the
administration.
Also
want
to.
Thank
president
Leone
I
have
served
on
the
president
Li
ne
for
six
years
and
I
have
to
say
John's
a
man
of
his
word.
It's
straightforward,
fiscally
conservative
and
anytime
I
had
a
problem
with
the
quality
on
he
always
returned.
G
G
Vice
president's
and
Maria
dedicated
to
the
city
of
Koreans,
think,
especially
the
leaks
in
the
baseball
fields
and
made
sure
they
all
got
their
equipment
and
whatever
they
needed.
I
have
to
say,
Richard.
You
approach
this
job
with
a
sense
human
I
give
you
credit
for
that,
no
matter
how
much
pressure
was
on.
You
could
always
find
some
humorous
antidote
to
saying
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that,
and
your
dedication
to
the
city,
Mario
Lucido,
Mario
I,
have
to
say
you
approached
this
job.
G
The
most
intelligence
of
all
of
us,
you,
you
always
ask
the
intricate
questions.
Your
cross-examination
of
witnesses
on
issues
and
topics
are
excellent,
always
enlighten
me
that
I
could
look
deeper
into
the
issue
on
a
Thank
You
Maura.
No
one
campaign,
Carter
than
you
Marv
I,
have
to
say
did
a
great
job
with
your
campaign,
councilman
box,
I,
have
to
say:
I
was,
if
you
know
a
freshman
year,
I
baptize
you,
but
no
one.
No
one
could
argue.
G
Knowing
you
were
in
the
minority,
then
did
a
great
job
with
all
your.
Your
arguments
on
the
floor
almost
convinced
me
a
couple
of
times,
maybe,
but
thank
you
for
your
service
Don
and
Tony
Moran
Tony.
Thank
you
for
your
dedication,
how
it
worked
for
the
city,
excellent
job,
I
city
auditor,
and
it's
a
pleasure
to
know
you're
having
a
friend.
Thank
you.
K
You
counsel,
Thank
You
council,
president
Lainey,
you
know
having
what
battles
on
both
sides
of
the
aisle
I'm
uniquely
qualified,
to
know
all
three
gentlemen
that
are
leaving
here
quite
well
when
I
first
got
the
council.
Most
of
you
know,
I
walked
with
which
to
Santa,
Maria
and
Mario.
You
know
almost
limitlessly
and
I
would
call
them
both
friends
and
I
wish
them
both
well
in
their
future
endeavors
their
counsel.
Their
skills
will
be
missed
in
the
chamber.
K
I
will
tell
them
their
replacements,
have
big
shoes
to
fill
when
I
switch
teams,
I
got
to
know
councilmen
bots
again
extremely
well.
When
I
first
sat
in
this
council,
we
were
freshmen
together
and
he
knew
right
off
the
bat
exactly
what
needed
to
be
done.
Sometimes
he
said
things
that
were
a
little
controversial,
but
he
would
tell
you
why
he
did
it
and
he
would
tell
you
why
it
was
the
right
move
and
a
lot
of
times.
He
was
right,
so
your
council,
sir,
will
be
missed
as
well.
K
O
You
all
right,
I,
just
dumped
I,
didn't
really
get
a
chance
to
when
I
was
up
on
the
podium
but
Don
fites.
It
was
pleasure
to
work
with
you.
Two
great
pieces
legislation
came
out
of
you
this
this
last
term.
The
the
dumpster,
the
dumpster
thing
was
really
started
by
Don,
because
Don
got
the
first
phone
calls
as
far
as
people
waking
him
up
in
the
middle
of
the
day
middle
of
the
night
and
the
the
body
works
bill,
two
great
pieces
of
legislation,
so
it
was
a
pleasure
working
with
with
you
Don
Mario.
O
We
don't
his
eyes
just
ensuite
with
kids
and
I
won't
get
into
some
of
the
things
we
got
ourselves
into.
It's
good
thing.
The
police
aren't
here
so,
but
we
weren't
that
we
won't
won't
go
into
that
foot
work
with
you,
I
agree
with
constant
when
I
care
you
brought
a
different
different
edge
into
it,
New
Year
stuff
and
my
colleague
on
the
other
side,
a
better
friend
no
one
can
have
in
this
world.
His
wife
and
my
wife
worked
three
years
at
the
filings
and
I
was
leaned
on
him
for
legal
advice.
O
O
O
Lost
his
first
time
lost
the
second
time
third
time
he
walked
with
me,
and
he
didn't
give
up.
He
was
the
Abraham
Lincoln
of
the
council.
He
ran
two
times
before
he
won
and
I
have
a
great
deal
of
admiration
for
him.
He's
young
he's
bright,
he's
fiscally
responsible.
He
knows
his
numbers
and
sisters.
Cranston
will
be
well
served
with
you.
What,
whatever
capacity
you
serve
over
the
next
council
and
two
councilmen
stay
close.
We
butted
heads
a
few
times,
but
thank
you
for
your
support.
O
The
last
time
when
I
was
running
citywide
when
they
didn't
know
that
side
of
the
city
at
all.
Thank
you
for
your
endorsement.
Thank
you
for
your
friendship
and
you
brought
up
the
school
committee
end
of
the
knowledge
that
we
needed.
We
are
working
with
them,
so
I'm,
very
proud
of
all
of
you.
I
can
see
all
friends
and
constantly.
K
L
M
L
And
one
other
thing:
it
was
a
I,
don't
know
if
you
heard
about
over.
There
was
a
break-in
I
heard
yesterday
at
four
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
on
Park
Forest,
an
elderly
person's
home
I'd
just
like
to
get
some
information
on
it
as
possible
because
it
was
pretty
disturbing
if
that's
true,
okay,
mister
barone
I'd
just
like
to
say
that
the
this
has
been
most
interesting
counsel
and
really
engaging
counsel.
I've
worked
with
six
years,
I've
enjoyed
it
thoroughly.
L
Hopefully
it
won't
be
remembered
just
for
the
body
works
bill,
but
you
were
very,
you
know,
instrumental
in
getting
that
done.
Councilman
Osito
sat
next
to
you
now
for
the
last
two
years
at
least,
and
it's
been
fun.
We've
had
some
engaging
conversations
and
sometimes
arguments,
but
we've
made
friendly,
throw
out
and
I
wish.
L
You
well
thank
you
and
Councilman
Santa
Maria
sat
next
to
me
on
the
other
side,
but
we've
done
quite
a
bit
more
together,
I
think
than
anyone
only
because
we
were
on
safety
services
for
six
years
with
you,
so
we've
developed
a
good
friendship.
Even
when
we
disagree,
we
still
walk
away
and
can
go,
have
a
beer,
so
I'm
gonna
miss
you
I,
think
you
know
I
think
you
did
a
great
service
to
the
city.
Councilman
Alania
hope
we'll
see
you
next
month.
If
your
wife
allows
it.
No
mr.
L
J
You,
mr.
council
president
I'll
jump
in
on
the
love
fest
as
councilman
Farina
said,
I'll,
be
very
brief.
I
promise,
Don
I'll,
certainly
miss
your
advice
in
your
your
tutelage
and
always
get
up
the
phone.
When
I
had
a
question
for
you,
Mario
I
always
miss
your
history.
I'm
gonna
run
you
through
the
history
on
a
topic.
You
knew
it
all.
If
you
had
a
question
from
the
50s.
J
J
H
Mario's
questions,
which
I
think
have
been
the
best
questions
that
have
been
asked
by
any
council
member
and
Richards
gentlemen
quality,
which
I
think
is
something
that's
not
not
many
politicians
get
that
title
linked
with
their
name
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that
and
Don
if
you're
up
late
at
night,
watching
these
council
meetings
in
the
future-
and
you
see
me
fumbling
over
my
iPad
you'll-
know
that
you're
not
here
to
tell
me
how
to
work.
It.
A
N
N
It
was
kind
of
like
it
showed
me
the
ropes
kind
of
thing,
even
though
we
were
on
either
side
of
the
aisle,
but
it
still,
it
was
a
good
two
years
sitting
next
to
Mario
and
next,
two
years
sitting
next
to
Steve
I,
don't
think
we
could
be
more
diametrically
opposed
as
far
as
our
philosophies
but
in
the
end
Steve
sticks
to
his
principles
and
something
to
be
admired
so
and
I
think
I
stick
to
mine
as
well
counsel,
Santa,
Maria,
we've
always
gotten
along
I.
Think
on
the
council.
N
We
maybe
had
a
couple
of
Barb's
here
and
there
during
discussions,
but
otherwise
it's
been
a
good,
a
good
four
years
serving
with
you.
Consequently,
any
we
don't
have
any
conversations,
but
again
I
could
always
as
constant
Farina
steady
remaining
a
word,
and
it
was
a
good
four
years
as
council
president
you're
always
fair
and
what
it
came
down
to
matters
that
mattered
so
again
in
compliment
Paskus,
I'm
still
always
a
phone
call
away.
If
you
won't
have
any,
as
you
know,
we
talk
all
the
time
Vicki.
N
Oh,
it
was
good
to
serve
with
you,
the
first
two
years
as
Minority
Leader
and
the
preview
next
two
years
again,
certainly
with
you
being
one
of
two,
it
was
a
little
lonely
at
first
and
then
Chris
came
along,
so
it
was
good
to
you
and
then
Mike
decided
to
join
the
team
as
well
and
a
Mike
server
with
you.
It's
been
a
good
was
it
year
and
a
half
year
and
a
half
being
on
the
team
and
good
four
years
altogether.
We
always
knew
we
belong
with
each
other.
As
far
as
I.
N
Remember
that
conversation
we
had,
you
should
join
the
Democrats.
No,
you
should
join
Republicans.
Well,
we
always
knew
I
mean
we
shared
similar
philosophies.
So
again
it
was
his
good
serve
you
in
councilman,
Arquette
Oh,
again,
I
knew
you're
busting,
my
chops
quite
a
bit
the
first
couple
of
years,
but
in
the
end
I
think
again.
We
when
matters
came
down
to
things
that
mattered,
the
most
I
think
we
both
wanted
to
serve
the
citizens
cranston.
Well,
so
again,
it
was
great
serving
with
all
of
you
and
again
make
cranston
proud.
The
next
two
years.
A
E
A
Want
to
acknowledge
the
only
person
and
nobody
in
this
room
acknowledged
our
solicitor
back
Quinlan
without
that's
been
on
serving
the
City
Council
for
fourteen
years,
without
his
wisdom,
legal
expertise
and
good
common
sense.
We
would
have
been
in
a
little
trouble
a
lot
of
times,
but
thank
you
very,
very
much
for
your
dedication,
the
city
of
Cranston,
into
the
City
Council's,
the
many
City
Council's
that
you
have
been
legal
advisor
to
over
the
past
years.
