Description
The Dearborn Heights Special City Council Meeting taking place Thursday, January 13th 2022 at Riverside Middle School and via Zoom.
A
C
A
A
H
H
E
A
I
I
I
I
You
know
over
the
cpa,
if
the
cpa
agreed
with
that
that's
great
if
they
have
different
weight,
that's
great
too
number
two.
You
know
the
the
statement
on
the
statement
on
that
we
don't
have
a
internet
control.
I
disagree
with
that.
We
do
have
internal
control,
we
fail
in
some
area.
Our
internal
control
is
is
being
watched
by
our
lawyer
every
contract
we
sign
it
goes
to
the
lawyer
and
make
sure
that
we
are
in
compliance
with
cfr
200
in
compliance
with
the
charter.
I
So
we
have
again
the
charter
of
accounting
guidelines
by
the
state
of
michigan
treasury
department.
We
follow
that
by
the
t
we're
supposed
to
now.
If
we
fail
someone,
that's
fine,
but
that
doesn't
mean
we
lack
we
do
have.
We
do
have
internal
control
policy.
Now
I
agree
with
the
I
agree
with
the
with
the
cpas
here
that
sometime
there
is
some
area
we
failed
end.
I
This
is
number
two
number
three
which
is
as
as,
as
I
said,
you
know
we
have
to
look
into
the
legality,
whether
we
can,
or
we
can't
you
know
defer
from
the
language
of
the
of
the
report
of
of
this
one,
and
I
thank
you
so
so
my
recommendation
to
you
is
to
to
do
whatever
you
think
you
should.
You
should
be
done.
You
should
be
doing
now
this.
This
audit
report
is
independent
report.
I
A
A
A
E
J
J
So
the
financial
statements
right
now,
the
management
discussion
analysis-
does
talk
that
it's
going
to
be
the
capital
bonds
are
going
to
be
paid
through
water
sewer
rates.
However,
ultimately,
the
council
can
determine
how
the
council
wants
to
pay
for
those,
whether
it's
through
property
taxes
or
some
other
form,
or
it's
a
fixed
rate
or
something
else,
so
that
can
be
done
in
the
budget.
It's
independent
of
the
financial
statements
council
chair,
that's.
E
J
Have
so
we'd
have
to
reissue
the
financial
statements,
so
we
have
to
go
back
to
our
processing
and
reissue
them
for
the
change
in
the
mdna.
What
I
would
recommend
doing
is,
since
the
mdna
isn't
really
binding.
It
is
a
description
of
what
your
intent
is.
Okay
or
likely
it's
going
to
happen,
but
it
doesn't
mean
that
you
have
to
do
it.
L
Just
just
briefly,
I
would
not
recommend
making
a
change
unless
bound
counsel.
It
might
be
an
issue
for
bound
counsel,
and
we
have
to
be
careful
about
what
we
say
in
terms
of
things
having
to
do
with
bonds,
at
least
at
this.
At
this
juncture
I
mean-
even
it
obviously
can
be
revisited
per
mr
elenic,
but
I
would
be
careful
about
saying
something
that
might.
A
A
J
The
water
bill,
so
mr
jabal,
was
talking
about
doing
a
fixed
fee
based
on
number
of
households
per
year
and
right
now,
in
the
analysis
that
we're
talking
about
a
couple
weeks,
it
is
included
in
the
water
and
sewer
rates.
It's
about
0.3
percent
of
an
impact
to
water
and
sewerage.
So
it
is
a
relatively
minor
impact
and
I
realize
every
percentage
matters,
but
overall
costs
do
go
up.
Inflation
is
pretty
significant.
Your
water
purchases
from
the
from
gleewa
is,
you
know
they
keep
increasing
every
year,
four
or
five
percentage
points.
J
H
H
A
J
During
the
study
session
in
a
couple
weeks
and
it's
going
to
have
a
lot
of
details
and
I
believe
the
mayor
and
the
management
is
going
to
forward
the
reports
to
you
well
ahead
of
time
as
well
to
be
able
to
look
those
over,
and
I
welcome
any
questions
if
you
want
to
give
me
a
call
beforehand
and
talk
about
anything,
I'm
happy
to
do
so
because
it
is
a
pretty
extensive
analysis.
So
I
welcome
any
questions
in
the
meantime
as
well.
Thank
you.
A
H
You
councilman
sharon
again
martin
and
plant
moran.
Thank
you
for
the
thorough
analysis
and
the
audit
that
you've
done
in
the
past
and
did
a
really
good
job
on,
and
the
point
doesn't
go
unnoticed
by
me
when
you
say
that
you
know
there
was
a
lot
of
changes
with
the
administration
with
our
primary
son.
You
know
dying
and
one
personnel
change,
but
many.
H
So
thank
you
to
the
administration
for
getting
the
voluminous
records
for
a
municipal
corporation
that
has
a
50
million
a
year
budget
together
and
and
getting
the
audit
done
and
and
I'll
just
say
personally.
So
there
are
maybe
some
what
I'll
call
political
statements
that
can
be
made
about
the
numbers
are
the
numbers
you
guys
are
the
experts,
let's
report
them
and
and
not
split
hairs,
going
forward.
K
K
L
That's
their
opinion
right
and,
as
martin
ended
up
saying.
Basically,
the
management
decision
is
not
binding
on
the
council
in
terms
of
ultimately,
what
the
council
will
end
up
doing
with
respect
to
this
right.
So
what
you,
as
a
body
decide,
is,
what's
going
to
end
up
being
binding.
Ultimately,
on
that
issue,
right.
K
L
D
L
So
it's
not
just
their
opinion.
No
one
needs
to
pay
attention
to
it.
It's
their
opinion.
There
can
be
consequences,
but
ultimately,
if
there
are
going
to
be
some
issues,
they'll
have
to
be
brought
back
to
the
council
of
the
body
and
you'll
be
able
to
act
accordingly.
Does
that
help
you
yep?
That's
exactly
right.
A
G
A
There
any
other
questions.
No,
I
think
we
should
just
make
a
vote
on
this
from
the
council.
Okay,
seeing
none,
no
more
discussion,
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
vote
on
the
fiscal
year,
2020
21
financial
statement,
audit
report,
which
I
shall
say
that
we
had
a
couple
different
study
sessions
with
the
plant
moraine
already
on
this.
So
we're
not
just
quickly
voting
on
this
so
motion
made
by
councilman
muscat
seconded
by
councilman
constand,
all
in
favor,
please
state
aye,
those
opposed
the
eyes
have
it.
A
E
Chair
councilman
muscat.
I
move
that
the
dearborn
heights
city
council
approved
the
plant
moran
professional
services
agreement,
temporary
finance
assistance
addendum
to
plant
and
plant
moran
pllc
engagement
letter
in
addition,
authorize
the
mayor
to
sign
the
agreement
on
behalf
of
the
city
as
outlined
in
8
b.
A
A
I
I
have
was
there
okay,
so
I
would
like
for
the
audience,
I'm
gonna
allow
you
to
speak
counselor
gary
miyaki,
but
for
the
audience.
In
addition
to
that,
if
you
don't
mind,
mr
mayor,
if
you
could
give
the
general
audience
in
in
here
and
on
zoom,
what
your
plan
is,
what
your
proposal
is
and
why
this
proposal
is
in
place,
but
go
ahead.
Counselor
gary
miyake,
first,
okay,.
L
I
have
reviewed
the
proposed
agreement.
I
believe
that
there
should
be
some
of
the
standard
language
that
we
have
under
the
elliot
larson
civil
rights
act,
persons
with
disability,
civil
rights
act
and
title
vi,
the
appendix
a
that
you'll
see
on
a
lot
of
agreements
that
I
I
do
so
and
then
there's
some
language
that
I
have
a
concern
with,
but
I
don't
necessarily
consider
it
to
be
that
problematic.
L
I
don't
know
if
you
consider
it
if,
if
the
council
is
already
comfortable
with
with
that,
then
I
won't
say
anything
beyond
what
I've
ended
up
stating
no,
no,
no,
I
just
I
just
consider
it
to
be
when
you
end
up
talking
about
a
contract
where
it's
like
400
000
and
you
have
an
employee
come
on
site
or
employees
come
on
site.
That
raises
an
issue
about.
If
there
is
some
sort
of
an
accident.
L
L
Okay,
I
look
at
this
as
a
situation
where
we
have
people
basically
doing
things
that
it's
you
know,
clerical
counting,
there's
never
been
an
accident
with
like
one
of
their
employees
before
it's,
not
something
where
I
would
look
at
it
as
being
like
language
that
has
to
necessarily
go,
but
you
got
to
understand
that
there
could
be
an
issue
you
just
need
to.
You
know,
frankly,
a
lot
of
times.
I
end
up
saying
this
language
is
acceptable
because
I
talk
to
the
department
head
and
there's
no
real
risk
involved.
L
L
J
A
L
L
A
H
Well,
no,
I
was
going
to
say
the
city
attorney's
point
is
well
taken.
This
is
white
collar
work.
I
think
it's
maybe
standard
language
and
I
think
the
big
issue
would
be
whether
plant
moran
would
say
yeah.
Okay,
we
will
take
it
out
because
they
it's
standard,
they
probably
won't,
but
it's
not
like
people
are
going
to
be
going
up
on
the
roof
or
or.
H
L
But
it's
not
like
the
same
thing
as
like
one
where
you
know
it's:
a
ten
thousand
dollar
contract
and
they're
just
processing
forms
which
we
have
a
plant
moran
benefits
thing
that
that's
generally
been
my
position,
there's
not
a
real
exposure
here.
This
is
one
where
you
have
an
employee
on
site.
I
think
it
can
go
either
way.
That's
why
I'm
raising
the
issue.
If
the
council
says
gary,
we
think
that
it's
it's
it's
it's
not
that
big
of
a
deal.
L
Then
I
could
do
an
addendum
tomorrow
morning
that
just
talks
about
the
elliot
larson
persons
with
disability,
civil
rights
and
appendix
a
get
that
send
that
out.
It
could
end
up
being
circulated
over
to
plant
moran
and-
and
I
would
assume
that
they'd
have
no
problem,
because
it's
required
under
state
law
and
we
would
be
done
if
they
had
an
issue.
L
If
but,
if
you
told
me
look
get
rid
of
paragraph
12
and
paragraph
14,
because
we
agree
with
you
or
we
don't
want
to
have
the
headache
or
the
possible
exposure
on
this,
then
I
can
prepare
the
addendum
that
way
and
again,
because
what
it
does
is
it
limits
their
liability
and
it
says
that
we
will
indemnify
them
from
any
any
claims,
except
regarding
their
gross
negligence
and
willfulness
conduct
so
like,
if
someone's
negligent
from
their
company
and
it
causes
an
accident,
then
we
don't
have
any
claim
or
we
couldn't.
We
would.
L
B
A
Okay,
please,
okay
at
this
point
before
we
continue
on
this
specific
subject
as
far
as
what's
in
the
contract
I'd
like
because
the
audience
probably
has
no
idea
what
we're
speaking
of
so
I'd
like,
if
you
guys
don't
mind,
council,
men
and
women,
if
the
mayor
can
give
a
briefing
as
far
as
what
his
thought
process
is,
why
we
need
something
like
this.
Why
he's
recommending
it
and
what
can
be
the
end
result
from
this
and
then
we'll
continue
discussing
that
and
then
from
there?
B
B
We
did
have
several
meetings
in
the
last
few
months
with,
with
with
the
flatmarine
team,
at
least
like
six
or
seven
meetings
in
the
last,
probably
four
or
five
months,
we're
going
through
different
concerns
and
issues
that
we
need
to
correct.
So
we
we
could
not
really
engage.
You
know
plant
run
at
the
time
because
you
know
they're
doing
the
audit.
So
that's
why
I
mentioned
to
you
guys
at
the
last
meeting
that
it's
very
critical
that
we
get
this
audit
done
approved
uploaded.
B
Then
the
second
step
is
to
get
this
engagement
letter
to
get
them
to
come
in
and
to
help
us
with
all
the
findings
that
we've
had
for
the
last
several
years
and
my
my
objective,
michael
at
the
next
audit,
you
know
not
to
have
as
an
auditor,
you
know
the
stuff
that
I've
done.
I
mean
you
might
find
minor
issues,
but
a
lot
of
the
significant
issues
I
want
to
make
sure
they're
taking
care
of
before
the
next
audit.
And
again
the
state
is
looking
very
closely
at
the
city
of
dearborn
heights.
B
You
know,
we've
done
several
letters
and
that's
why
we
need
this
thing
done
asap,
because
I
want
to
be
able
to
tell
the
state
when
they
call
me
that
hey
we
have
a
team
in
place
and
we're
taking
every
step,
every
precaution
we're
being
proactive
and
we're
trying
to
get
everything
done
before
they
give
us
a
call,
and
I
can
guarantee
you
once
this
audit
report
is
uploaded
to
the
states.
I'm
gonna
get
a
call
from
the
state.
A
B
B
You
know
that,
probably
when
the
city
started
that
we
have
to
actually
get
a
lot
of
these
things
taken
care
of
are
now
so
we
can
move
us
propel
us
into
the
future
right
now
we're
far
behind
and
that's
why
we
asked
plant
marine
to
come
in
they've
been
they're,
well
aware
of
all
the
issues
that
we
have
and
again
you
know
we
we
need.
This
is
very
significant
to
the
city,
because
you
know
you're
talking
about.
B
B
B
K
K
A
F
L
F
L
K
Okay,
they're
estimating!
Well,
I
don't
know
where
to
get
this
figure
2
500
hours,
because
they
don't
know
exactly
what
to
do,
but
and
there's
nothing,
there's
nothing
in
there
not
to
an
ex
not
to
exceed,
but
we
could
always
like
say
stop
at
any
time
and
178
an
hour.
But
that's
going
to
be
adjusted
in
july
july,
1st
correct
and
it's
got
to
be
it's
going
to
be
more,
probably
more
like
the
more
than
178
dollars
an
hour.
Yes,.
A
F
Yes,
sir,
our
what
we
do
as
a
group
is
internal
accounting
for
local
units
of
government,
that,
for
whatever
reason,
do
not
have
the
manpower
or
the
current
skills
and
expertise
to
maintain
a
finance
department
that
results
in
an
audit
without
any
findings.
So
we're
going
to
come
in
carolyn
lorenz,
my
manager
is
here
with
me.
F
Our
team
will
do
the
bank
racks.
Our
team
will
maintain
the
general
ledger.
We
will
do
the
audit
prep
for
next
year
and
work
with
the
new
external
auditors.
Now
I
I
I
don't
want
to
correct
the
mayor,
but
with
the
the
idea
that
we
are
going
to
get
the
next
audit
to
not
have
any
findings.
We
can't
guarantee
that
because
you're
six
months
into
the
year
already-
and
so
if
there
are
things
that
have
occurred
in
the
first
six
months
of
the
year-
that
are
determined
to
be
findings,
we
can't
make
that
go
away.
F
So
those
things
are
going
to
happen,
but
I
can
say
that
by
the
time
we
get
to
june
30
and
then
spend
60
to
90
days
getting
ready
for
the
audit
and
working
with
the
new
auditors.
The
year-end
balances
are
not
going
to
require
additional
adjustments,
so
you
might
get
written
up
for
a
july.
21
bank
rack
that
wasn't
done
timely
because
that
already
happened.
H
K
We
can,
you
know,
it'd,
be
foolish
for
us
to
terminate
you
and
then
have
to
start
all
over
somewhere
and
then
there's
there's
I
mean
I'm.
I
know
this
has
to
be
done.
The
cost
is
what
really
concerns
me
all
the
little
things
like
I've
seen,
the
one
in
there
about
travel
costs
and
what
what?
What
are
the
travel
costs
that
would
be
incurred
here
coming
from
where
they
live
to
here
the
city.
F
F
K
F
No
sir,
in
fact,
our
original
proposal,
taking
our
1.6
ftes
for
2500
hours,
is
approximately
400
000,
but
over
time
we
believe
that
there
are
additional
efficiencies
to
be
gained
and
those
efficiencies
would
save
money.
Now,
you're
already
engaged
with
my
team,
so
we've
been
doing
accounting
service
work
here
for
the
last
three
audits
to
on
a
very
minor
basis,
help
the
comptroller.
F
F
Their
fee
will
be
less
so
you
know
there
are
additional
charges
for
a
messy
or
late
audit.
Those
should
go
away
as
well
and
it
is
possible
that
through
either
technology
or
process
that
there
are
other
people
within
the
city
that
could
be
reallocated
to
other
departments,
and
so
the
cost
of
the
finance
department
would
go
down
for
those
individuals.
F
K
F
F
So
you
may
determine
that
you
love
the
way
we
do
the
work
and
you
never
want
us
to
go
away
or
you
may
determine
we
like
having
our
own
people.
Plant
moraine
is
a
temporary
solution
and
as
soon
as
the
job
is
done,
we
can
can
move
on
and
anything
in
between
is
also
fine.
So,
like
I
said,
we
have
permanent
engagements,
we
have
very
short-term
engagements.
It's
entirely
up
to
the
city.
What
you
want
to
do,
and
as
long
as
you
want
to
do
it,
okay.
K
You
mentioned
that
the
net
cost
is
you
know
that
you're
just
guessing
up
top?
You
have
45
000..
Now
that
say
we
keep
you
on
for
a
second
year.
You
say:
hey,
we
did
all
this,
so
we're
not
going
to
be
here
for
2
500
hours
this
next
year
right,
it
might
only
be
50,
1500
or
a
thousand
hour
to
500.
Is
that
correct?
Yes,
that's!
Correct!
Okay,
yeah.
F
One
there's
a
lot
of
cleanup.
That's
been
mentioned,
there's
process
improvements.
Once
a
process
is
improved,
you
don't
necessarily
have
to
improve
it
again.
So
all
of
that
there's
going
to
be
in
the
first
year
or
so
there
could
be
a
significant
amount
of
work
that
would
go
away
thereafter
and
we
might
take
care
of
it
in
the
first
year
and
then
hand
the
reins
over
to
a
city
employee.
But
again
that
is
going
to
be
up
to
them
to
city
management.
A
A
K
B
A
G
D
G
G
D
G
H
G
F
We
want
to
take
care
of
the
addendum
that
the
city
attorney
wants
to
take
care
of,
and
then
we
can
start
immediately.
We,
as
I
said,
we've
already
been
engaged
with
you
on
a
minor
basis,
so
we
already
have
access
to
your
general
ledger,
we're
already
familiar
with
your
employees.
We
have
a
good
working
relationship
with
mr
cebuda,
so
we
can
start.
F
G
G
F
Going
to
be
a
mix
quite
honestly,
and
the
reason
for
that
is
if,
on
any
given
day,
if
there
is
not
going
to
be
a
full
day's
worth
of
work,
I
don't
want
to
send
somebody
to
the
city.
Have
you
incur
any
cost
that
might
be
for
traveling?
There
may
not
be,
but
I
want
them
to
be
as
efficient
as
possible.
G
G
I
personally,
I'm
just
me,
and
I
think
we
want
to
see
people
like
I
I'm
always
insane
like
the
mayor
has
said,
we're
there
and
I
want
to
be
able
to
see
the
engagement.
I
want
to
be
able
to
come
and
you
know
bring
in
something
from
the
residence
and
say
hey.
You
know
this
time,
miranda's
jumping
in
and
they're
digging
deep
they're
assisting
the
residents
yeah.
G
B
So
some
of
the
questions
already,
what
I
was
going
to
mention
has
already
been
mentioned
by
by
brian
about
this-
is
going
to
actually
save
us
money
in
the
long
run,
especially
it's
going
to
put
a
lot
of
great
processes
in
place,
and
we
actually
we
talked
about
the
engagement
when
they
start.
We
wanted
to
have
them
start
this
week,
but
obviously
you
know
it
was
deferred
to
today.
B
So
I'm
hoping
you
know
once
once
it
gets
approved
again.
You
know
I
want
them
to
start
as
soon
as
tuesday
and
the
reason
why
is
because,
like
I
said
when
this
audit
gets
submitted
to
the
state,
the
state's
going
to
have
questions-
and
I
want
to
have
part
of
our
corrective
action-
hey-
we
have
a
team
gap.
Team
is
here,
they're
already
helping
they're
doing
stuff.
B
So
this
is
very
critical.
Believe
me,
this
is
very
critical
to
the
city
to
say
something
that
hey.
We
have
a
team
on
deck,
we're
doing
this
because
they
don't
hear
any
more
excuses,
but
we
don't
have
the
right
team
on
hand
helping
us
get
through
this
and,
as
you
know,
you
know
we
we
don't
have
a
deputy
controller
for
for
months.
B
B
I
mean
he's
found
out
some
stuff
that
every
council
member
that's
been
here
for
a
while
has
asked
questions
that
actually,
mr
buddha,
who
had
not
no
idea
what
was
said
in
the
past,
he's
actually
brought
it
to
my
attention.
So,
and
you
know
he
thinks
this
is
a
great
idea.
I
think
it's
an
excellent
idea
that
we
need
to
move
to
this.
It's
going
to
save
the
city
a
lot
of
money
in
the
long
run.
B
B
Actually,
adding
other
departments,
that's
that's
a
good
question.
Council
chair.
We
actually
have
a
plan
to
actually
also
get
into
the
treasurer's
office
to
see.
What's
you
know,
we
got
to
do
self
audit
over
there
as
well,
just
to
make
sure
that
the
treasurer's
office
is
off
also
has
all
the
processes
in
place
and
to
make
sure
that
we
have
good
good
pro
good
things
going
on
over
there
as
well,
because
we
do
have
some
concerns
in
both
offices
as.
A
Well,
so
one
of
the
things
that
you
had
in
your
vision
was
a
monthly
audit.
This
is
basically
going
towards
that
vision
yeah,
but
but
you
mentioned
you
wanted,
you
mentioned
to
me
the
conversation
with
you
that
you
want
to
have
everything
throughout
city
hall
audited.
Exactly-
and
I
commend
you
for
that,
because
that's
good,
but
are
they
going
to
be
doing
other
departments
too?
Are
we
looking
at
just
one
or
two
departments.
B
Well,
there's
a
plan
to
do
every
department
in
the
city,
but
we
do
have
a
plan
to
do
that.
So
we
are.
We
are
going
to
self-audit
ourselves
to
make
sure
again.
We
mentioned
the
word
right
size
with
every
department.
We
have
the
right
people,
the
right
skills
and
to
make
sure
that
everybody
that
needs
to
do
whatever
they
need.
That
is
actually
they
have
the
right
training
to
do
what
they
need
to
do.
Thank.
H
H
Four
questions,
first
being
I.t,
so
I
know,
for
example,
when
I
do
my
taxes,
my
brokerage
house,
I
can
download
from
the
brokerage
house
the
basis
the
gains
all
that
so
so
you
come
in
comptroller's
office,
treasurer's
office.
Who
does
the
the
actual
I.t?
Will
that
be
you
or
that
will
be
our?
We
have
a
new
director
of
I.t
with
the
city
of
dearborn.
I
assume
that's
going
to
go
forward.
B
F
H
F
Yeah,
I
believe
that
the
engagement
letter
specifically
mentions
some
of
the
year-end
reports
that
follow
the
audit,
like
the
f-65
or
act
51
of
qualifying
statement,
so
those
still
need
to
be
filed
once
our
audit
team
uploads
and
whether
mr
cebu
does
it
or
we
do
it.
Those
will
get
done
in
very
short
order.
All.
H
H
Work
becomes
more
and
more
highly
skilled
and
a
lot
of
people.
They
were
at
this
department,
they
they
bumped
and
they
went
over
to
that
department.
They,
you
know
the
the
train
and
then
the
last
question.
Does
this
not
need
to
go
out
for
bid?
Is
this
a
contract
that
needs
to
go
out
to
forbid
or
not
for
bid
no
to
services.
F
Hopefully
our
suggestions
are
are
heard
and
we
can
implement
as
many
as
possible,
but
at
the
same
time,
if
the
city
doesn't
like
our
recommendation
and
what
they're
doing
is
is
determined
to
be
better,
that's
fine,
but
we
will
be
working
with
the
comptroller.
If
there's
a
deputy
controller
with
the
mayor's
office
with
the
treasurer,
it
will
be
almost
as
if
we
are
city
employees,
all
right.
F
Correct
separate
department,
but
we
all
work
under
the
same
house,
so
I
mean
martin-
and
I
are
our
partners-
we're
colleagues
on
several
accounts,
but
we
look
at
things
a
little
bit
differently.
So
I
was
an
auditor
for
about
15
years,
but
over
the
last
eight
years
I've
been
on
on
the
city
side
of
the
table,
so
things
that
the
auditors
don't
necessarily
look
at
we're
neck
deep
in
every
day.
Okay,.
B
K
F
Who
will
be
good
for
doing
the
bank
racks
and
a
lot
of
the
very
detailed
work
now
scheduling
wise
last
year
we
served
80
communities,
so
you
know,
if
one
person
has
to
go
to
another
client,
then
we
can
bring
in
someone
else,
but
with
carolyn
and
I
managing
the
team
will
be
coaching
and
teaching.
So
there's
not
a
learning
curve
if
we
ever
have
to
swap
anybody
out.
K
To
the
best
of
your
recollection
or
ability,
is
there
going
to
be
any
cost
to
the
city
other
than
the
agreed
fees?
So
you
know
such
as
some
kind
of
technology
change
that
we
have
to
make
to
accommodate
you
guys
or
some
kind
of
office
space
or
some
kind
of
assistant,
a
runner
on
our
behalf
to
do
work
for
you
any
cost
of
the
city
at.
B
B
So
again,
you
know
we
got
to
bring
in
training.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
ideas
and
again
you
know
we
can
go
through
this
for
hours,
but
there's
a
lot
of
stuff
we
have
in
place
to
take
care
of.
You
know
the
issues
that
we
have,
but
something
as
simple.
You
know
as
bsna.
We
do
have
it,
they
can
go
in
there
they're
supposed
to
do
it,
but
nobody's
ever
done
it
and
that's
well.
Most
of
people
never
done
it.
B
Well,
I
mean
we
haven't
really
discussed
that,
but
they
have
brought
up
a
lot
of
stuff
that
could
be
for
we
could
use
for
training,
and
I
know
they've
trained
me
for
the
last.
You
know,
since
I've
been
appointed
since
last
january,
they've
taught
me
a
lot
of
things
and-
and
I
mentioned
to
to
martin
just
like
few
meetings
back.
You
know
I
mean,
thank
god,
I'm
not
a
cpa
or
you
know
an
accounting.
B
I
don't
know
how
they
can
do
it,
but
but
I
mean
it's
just
some
of
the
stuff
that
they
showed
me.
You
know
it's
just
you
know
it's
amazing
and
I
know
we
can.
Whoever
is
behind
as
a
controller.
You
know,
or
anybody
in
that
department
or
the
treasurer's
office.
They
can
take
that
and
they
can
train
others.
B
K
F
Like
that,
no
it's
all
under
the
same
hourly
rate,
but
I
mean,
if
we're
on
site
in
an
eight
hour
day,
we're
gonna
deal
with
and
communicate
with
half
a
dozen
or
more
people
within
various
departments,
and
if
we
see
something
that
we
think
could
be
done
differently,
then
we
will
make
the
suggestion
if
they
say
I
don't
know
how
to
do
that,
then
we
would
show
them.
So
I
said
before
that
we're
working
side
by
side
with
your
employees.
F
A
A
N
F
E
Concentrate
thank
you,
councilman.
Just
a
quick
comment.
You
know
we're
we're
already
four
or
five
months
behind
doing
what
we're
doing
so.
Obviously
there
was
a
big
mess
somewhere
in
the
years
219
to
early
220.,
okay,
so
so
we're
already
way
behind
and
the
further
we
stall
the
further
we're
going
to
get
behind,
and
my
big
thing
is,
I
understand
corporation
council's
objection,
but
I
think
we
need
to
get
this
ball.
E
The
snowball
going
down
the
hill
and
get
some
momentum
right
away.
That's
my
personal
opinion,
gentlemen.
I've
been
I've
been
here
a
long
time
and
I've
seen
this
and
gone
through
this
and
I've
never
seen
it
happen
like
this
before.
So
I
think
we
need
to
get
it
straightened
out,
and
I
think
these
people
here
are
the
best
ones
to
do
it.
Thank
you,
councilman.
H
H
A
If
and
again
it's
if
so,
it's
not
like
I'm
making
the
decision,
but
if
we
go
through
with
this,
because
obviously
the
changes
he's
recommending,
if
we're
not
going
through
this,
this
is
it's
irrelevant.
So
I'm
not
necessarily
telling
you
guys
which
way
to
vote.
But
if
we
went
through
this
with
the
changes
that
you
are
recommending,
which
I
think
my
personal
opinion
would
be
a
good
idea,
obviously,
whatever
that
you're
recommending
we'll
put
them
on
there,
can
that
still
be
voted
on
and
approved
with
those
changes
being
made
later.
A
I'm
sorry
so
whatever
recommended
changes
you
are
recommending,
provided
we
as
a
body
agreed
to
this
and
provided
that
we
as
a
body
agreed
to
move
forward
with
whatever
recommended
changes.
Can
we
still
approve
this
now
or
would
that
have
to
be
done
after
your
changes?
I
just
want
to
clarify
the
council.
L
You
could
prove
it.
I
wouldn't
recommend
that,
because,
if
you're,
the
changes
you
wanted,
I've
discussed
would
end
up
basically
requiring
an
addendum.
So,
for
example,
they
started
to
come
out
did
work
someone
got
hurt,
then
we
would
end
up
having
an
issue
and
it'd
be
too
late
after
the
fact
to
try
to
change
it.
F
L
F
L
L
I
can
do
an
addendum
tomorrow
morning
and
send
that
out.
If,
however,
the
issues
regarding
paragraph
12
and
18
are
an
issue
for
you
as
a
body
and
and
or
the
mayor,
then
I
could
prepare
the
language.
It
could
end
up
being
circulated
to
their
legal
counsel
and
we
could
see
what
they
end
up
saying
or
if
you
sit
here
and
say
yeah,
we
don't
think
there's
that
much
exposure.
Gary
thanks
for
your
opinion,
but
no
thanks.
L
A
E
E
A
A
Maybe
part
of
this
for
a
long
time,
and
with
that
being
the
case,
maybe
we
could
just
negotiate
with
them,
get
it
signed
and
then
get
them
go
ahead
to
get
started,
because
the
biggest
issue
that
was
of
concern
to
the
mayor
was
turning
into
the
audit.
Turning
in
the
audit
to
the
state,
and
once
that's
done,
then
technically
we
can
hire
plant
moran
for
this
particular
position.
A
month
later,
oh.
A
A
L
If
the
rest
of
you
feel
that
way
or
a
majority
of
you
feels
that
way,
then
I'll
just
do
the
simple
addendum
tomorrow
morning
and
send
it
over
to
them
and
send
to
everyone
else
and
we'll
be
done
with
it
and
over
to
the
clerk's
office
and
we'll
be
done
with
it.
If,
however,
you
feel
that
there
is
enough
of
a
risk
or
you
feel
like
we
don't
want
this
to
be
an
issue,
then
either
one
of
two
options
could
go
for
one.
L
I
could
do
the
simple
addendum,
send
it
and
we
could
go
from
there
and
I
could
try
to
negotiate
with
them
with
regard
to
12
and
18..
Of
course,
after
that
time,
we've
already
entered
into
an
agreement,
and
I
don't
know
how
much
leverage
you
have
in
terms
of
negotiation
or
we
could
sit
here
and
say
you
could
say
we
approve
it
subject
to
corporation
counsel
negotiating
this
out
and
that's
what
I.
A
E
That's
what
I
want
to
do
depending
on
the
change?
That's
all
yeah.
What
does
he
need
to
do
to
I
just
know
I
make
my
I
amend
my
motion.
Okay,
the
dearborn
height
city
council
approved
plant
moran's
professional
service
agreement,
temporary
finance
assistance,
amendment
to
plant
moran
pllc
engagement
letter,
in
addition,
authorize
the
mayor
to
sign
an
agreement
on
behalf
of
the
city
and
with
the
recommendations
that
our
city,
that
our
city
attorney.
I
E
G
A
K
A
Now
all
right,
thank
you.
Next
item
on
the
agenda
is
reports
from
city
officials.
Is
there
any
reports
from
city
officials
see
none
we'll
go
ahead
and
go
to
the
next
item,
an
agenda
which
is
from
members
of
the
public
first
one
before
we
start
with
members
from
the
public.
I'd
like
to
start
with
comments
from
council
members.
Is
there
any
comments
from
any
council
members?
N
C
A
I
I
I
E
A
Okay,
now
before
we
do
that,
I
want
to
make
sure
from
madam
clerk
and
then
eventually
from
mr
miyake,
because
the
motion's
already
been
made
and
approved
and
voted
on
and
voted
on.
So
with
that
being
the
case,
but
before
we
do,
though,
if
you
don't
mind
explaining
everything,
there's
a
sentence
that
you
mentioned:
councilor
gary
miyaki,
mr
sanjay
jamal
during
the
public
comments
section
mentioned
a
sentence
that
needs
to
be
added
on
this
motion.
A
A
L
Thank
you,
good.
Okay,
two
issues.
That's
if
you
want
to
end
up
authorizing
prepayment.
If
you
want
to.
If
you
want
to
monitor
things,
then
you
would
not
end
up
using
that
kind
of
language
as
as
it
goes,
if
you
want
to
authorize
prepayment,
then
you
can
do
so
up
to
a
certain
amount,
as
mr
jamal
has
suggested,
and
for
certain
contracts.
That's
a
great
idea.
I
don't
know
if
you
feel
that
way.
With
regard
to
that,
you
know,
I.
A
L
E
L
A
Also
sometimes
some
things
look
great
on
paper
and
and
we've
all
experienced
it
in
almost
anything
in
our
lives
and
until
the
mayor
and
his
administration
30
days
from
now
when
a
bill
comes
up,
I'm
sure
you
know
mr
mayor
and
his
administration
will
be
able
to
give
us
an
update
and
an
assessment
as
to
how
well
this
is
working.
So
with
that
being
the
case,
I
I
don't
see
a
need
to
change
it.
I
in
gary
you're
agreeing
with
that,
is
that
correct.
