Description
The Dearborn Heights Study Session regarding the Mayoral Appointment Procedures taking place Tuesday, January 19th 2021 via Zoom.
A
B
C
Chair
councilman,
constant,
thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
a
lot
has
happened
over
this
last
year.
A
lot
has
happened
just
in
the
last
couple
weeks,
and
I
think
the
one
thing
we
all
agree
on
is
this
city
council
has
a
very
important
decision
to
make,
and
I
think
that
it's
nothing
that
anybody
should
be
rushed
into.
B
D
D
Okay-
and
I
I
just
don't
understand
why
all
of
a
sudden
we're
just
deviating
from
everything
that
we're
supposed
to
do.
Okay,
our
charter
is
very
specific
okay
and
it
doesn't
say
that
we
have
like
I'm
saying
the
government
repeated
again.
We
did
not
have
to
go
out
and
post,
even
though
we
did
and
this
meeting
this
special
meeting
after
this.
This
study
session
was
supposed
to
be
voting
for
the
appointment
of
mayor
and
it
was
failed
to
put
on
the
agenda
and
I'm
very,
very
disappointed
on
how
that
worked
out.
A
A
So
at
last
week's
meeting
it
was
discussed
what
you
wanted,
not
you
particularly
but
what
the
body
wanted.
But
when
it
came
down
to
making
that
motion,
it
was
only
to
set
up
because
we
listen
dana
and
I
have
listened
to
it
five
times,
just
to
make
sure
that
what
what
our
audience
sees
on
zoo
on
on
youtube
is
the
same
thing
that
is
written
in
the
minutes.
A
It
would
be
sufficient
to
do
this
electronically,
so
it
really
didn't
say:
yes,
you
guys
discussed
it
prior,
but
it
didn't
say
in
the
motion.
Okay,
so
we
have
to,
as
the
official
record
keepers
write
down
exactly
what
was
said.
So
what
I
was
going
to
say
in
the
meeting
was
in
before
mayor
putco
passed
away.
I
had
talked
with
chrissy
and-
and
she
talked
to
him
about
clarifying.
D
I'm
eating
a
special
meeting
for
two
items
this.
This
is
not
I
I
I
just
I
don't
like
this.
I
have
jet
to
it
and
it's
just
not
right.
Sorry,
that's
just
the
way
I
feel,
and
I
was
hoping
for
more.
We
had
instances
with
trying
to
get
a
corporation
council
and
we're
we're
not
even
in
the
ballpark
here
with
this
special
meeting.
A
I
I
totally
understand
that's
why
I
want
to
hopefully
your
honorable
body
will
you
know
we
can
sit
down
and
we
can
discuss
this
so
that
this
doesn't
happen.
It's
very
frustrating
when
we
come
in
on
wednesday
and
we
have
to
listen
to
because
you
everything
you
say
is
important,
but
we
only
can
put
in
that
motion
what
it
was
actually
stated.
A
D
B
I
have
one
of
the
applicants
is
having
trouble
getting
in.
They
have
advised
me
they
can't
get
in.
I
think
at
this
point
in
time,
I'd
like
madam
clerk,
as
we
have
done
in
the
past,
to
set
up
to
set
up
times
and
allow
so
many
minutes
for
each
member
to
speak
and
do
that
at
a
future
meeting
before
next
tuesday,
and
then
we
vote
next
tuesday
at
the
meeting.
E
Council,
chair
just
just
to
clarify
in
regards
to
the
charter,
the
only
thing
that
we
are
obligated
to
do
as
council
members
is
to
pick
a
qualified
and
the
key
word
they
put
in
there
is
qualified,
which
means
it's
at
our
discretion,
who
is
qualified
resident
of
the
city
of
dublin
heights
to
appoint
them
as
mayor
when
they're,
you
know
upon
somebody
leaving
office
in
this
particular
case.
Rest
is,
you
know,
maybe
rest
in
peace,
our
former
mayor
dan
paletco.
E
We
can
even
if
we
wanted
to.
If
we
decide
as
a
body
today,
we
could
even
pick
somebody
today.
Somebody
can
make
a
motion
to
put
this
on
an
agenda.
Somebody
can
approve
that
motion
second,
that
motion
and
then
we
can
vote
at
that
particular
time.
So
we
don't
necessarily
have
to
wait
until
the
next
council
meeting
unless
our
body
as
a
whole
decided
to
do
that,
which
is
fine
by
me.
But
I'll
tell
you
this
no
later
than
next
tuesday.
E
We
got
to
make
a
decision
on
this
and
I'm
really
really
concerned
just
as
concerned,
because
I
think
it's
just
as
important
and
I
don't
mean
in
terms
of
position,
but
our
city
council
position
too
has
been
dragged
on
and
on
and
on
and
I'm
not
blaming.
Somebody
specifically
I'm
just
saying
the
we
are
right
now
into
our.
E
I
think
it's
like
fourth
or
fifth
or
sixth
well,
total
meetings,
probably
third
or
fourth
meeting,
and
we
still
have
not
picked
a
city
council
member
and
we
keep
going
three
three
three
three
three
three
four
votes
and
nobody's
coming
in
and
meanwhile
the
problem
with
that
is,
we've
got
six
council
members
and
we
cannot
come
to
any
type
of
agreement
because
you
have
an
even
number
of
council
members.
So
therefore
we
can't
come
into
any
type
of
agreement
on
mayor
or
anything
else.
E
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I,
what
I'm
hearing
is
is,
is,
I
hate
to
say
it,
but
particularly
from
councilman
musk.
It
is
just
ridiculous.
I
mean
I've.
I've
seen
someone
done,
do
a
complete
180
regarding
our
city
attorney
and
everything
else.
This
is
an
important
decision
on
any
of
the
other
positions
we
took
applications.
C
I
heard
the
councilman
say
that
charter
does
not
require
a
b
or
c
that
the
charter
requires
us
to
appoint
a
qualified
person,
a
resident,
an
elector
and
there's
nothing
in
the
charter
that
prohibits
a
business-like,
proper
notice
to
the
public
interviews
and
appointment
of
a
new
mayor.
It's
it's
it's
that
simple
and-
and
we
have
not
been
able
to
choose
a
new
council
person
only
because
we've
had
a
dead
tie
after
two
or
three
votes,
and
you
know
that
is
what
it
is.
C
It's
not
due
to
any
delay,
but
in
fact
the
charter
contemplates
two
situations.
One
where
the
mayor
is
is
disabled
and
unavailable.
It
may
come
back
and
it
has
a
30-day
requirement
and
then
it
also
contemplates
a
situation
where
the
mayor
resigns
dies
is
is,
is
just
not
going
to
come
back.
The
30
days
hasn't
even
passed
and
and
to
try
to
rush
and
and
try
to
have
this
council
some
of
the
members.
You
know
this
is
their
first
term
a
vote
in
a
replacement.
C
Ruth
canfield
resigned
and
there
was
far
more
discussion,
far
more
dialogue
and
back
then
the
council
came
to
a
consensus
and
voted
for
the
new
mayor.
It
was
7-0.
So
if,
if
someone
wants
to
rush
and
appoint
someone
for
america
to
give
one
person
an
advantage,
I
I
don't.
I
don't
think
that's
fair,
I
don't
think
that's
proper.
I
don't
think
that's
what
the
public
wants.
G
Yeah
yeah,
as
far
as
going
through
an
interview
with
the
candidates,
the
four
or
five
that
we
have,
I
don't
think
there's
anything
they
could
tell
us
in
an
interview
that
we
don't
know
already
about
them,
because
we
know
all
of
them
pretty
well,
and
secondly,
I
mean
they're,
probably
all
in
the
zoom
tonight,
so
they
could,
if
they
had
to
tell
us
a
little
story
about
them
themselves.
They
could
do
that
tonight
and
I'm
just
unclear.
One
thing
I'm
unclear
about
is
voting.
Is
the
the
number
of
votes
it
takes?
G
B
My
point
is,
I
understand
we
just
got
a
late
application
and
I
don't
even
know
who
it
is.
I
haven't
had
a
chance
to
go
to
my
email
because
I've
been
on
the
zoom
screen.
In
all
fairness,
we
need
to
give
that
person
a
chance
to.
We
didn't
get
these
applications
till
late
this
afternoon
and
it's
not
the
clerk's
fault.
She
had
something
she
was
doing
with
an
audit
and
she
couldn't
get
away
from
it
to
get
to
her
desk.
B
So
I
think
we
should
definitely
vote
next
week.
I
think
we
should
possibly
if
we
want
to
schedule
the
appointments
on
monday,
because
we
also
have
one
person
one
candidate-
that's
not
even
in
here-
and
we
know
him,
but
we
don't
know
him.
I
don't
know
him
enough
to
vote
without
talking
to
him
and
asking
him
questions.
D
A
B
E
A
The
procedure
for
addressing
the
council
during
the
comments
section
of
public
comment
shall
be
as
follows.
Any
member
of
the
public
who
wants
to
address
the
council
shall
begin
doing
so
by
stating
his
or
her
name
the
street.
He
or
she
lives
on
and
the
municipality
in
which
he
or
she
resides
he
or
she
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
address
the
council
and.
B
H
Hello,
my
name
is
greg.
Spearman
live
on
irwin
street
urban
heights
michigan,
and
I
agree
that
you
need
to
take
some
time.
You
need
to
look
at
the
candidates.
I
like
the
idea
about
background
checks.
I
mean
you're
talking
about
a
mayor
of
a
city
and
there's
private
companies
that
do
background
checks
on
their
employees,
and
I
agree
that
you
need
to
take
your
time
and
do
this
in
an
orderly
fashion.
D
H
I
mean
I
don't
even
know
who
is
running.
Who
are
the
candidates
are?
Are
the
people
of
the
city
be
told
who
is
running
and
are
we
going
to
have
any
choice
or
any
opportunity
to
have
input
toward
those
candidates
to
the
council,
or
are
we
just
going
to
look
at
the
council
and
hope
they
if
they
get
it
right?
H
So
I
agree
that
it
should
not
be
voted
on
tonight.
I
think
that
you
guys
need
to
interview
these
people,
not
just
just
go
by
what
you
think.
You
know
about
the
people
today
and
that's
that's
the
way
I
feel
there's
like
I
say
out
in
the
private
sector,
you're
going
for
a
job.
You
go
through
an
interview
and
for
someone
that's
important
as
a
mayor
of
this
city,
that's
the
least
I
would
expect.
E
Quickly,
actually,
I'm
glad
this
particular
resident
brought
this
up,
and
I
think
honestly,
I
don't
know
if
it
was
an
oversight
on
all
of
our
behalfs,
but
but
I
I
totally
agree
with
them.
I
think
the
residents
should
know
who
the
candidates
are,
because
we've
known
of
them,
and
yes,
we've
known
of
them
officially,
just
so
that
you
know
greg
as
of
this
morning.
E
The
deadline
was
10
a.m.
This
morning,
so
they
said
early
this
afternoon
is
when
we
received
the
different
candidates
from
the
clerk,
so
we've
just
officially
found
out
about
them
today,
although
obviously
we've
all
had
different
conversations
if
people
have
called
us
and
rumors
and
what
have
you
as
to
who
the
candidates
are.
But
yes,
I
do
believe
council
chair,
if
you
don't
mind,
if
you
could
maybe
read
a
list
of
who
the
candidates
are,
I
think
our
residents
deserve
to
at
least
know
who
they
are.
A
E
Yeah,
madam
chair,
I
don't
know,
I
think,
an
additional
thing,
because
obviously
these
names
are
all
familiar
to
a
lot
of
us
on
the
city
council,
but
I
think
it's
an
additional
item.
I
don't
know
if
we
should
put
the
resumes,
maybe
online
to
where
the
residents
come
to
them,
because
I
it's
not
fair
to
just
have
residents
have
to
google
every
name.
I
think
access
to
the
same
information.
E
Right,
but
I
I
respectfully
disagree
with
that,
because
I
think
every
resume
should
be
on
there.
Every
piece
of
information
should
be
on
there.
I've
looked
at
the
resumes
that
we've
received
so
far.
I've
not
looked
at
the
latest
one
that
was
just
sent,
but
I
looked
at
the
resumes
they
received
so
far
and
for
me,
as
I'm
sure,
for
a
lot
of
other
council
members,
we
found
out
things
that
we
probably
didn't
know
there
was
things
that
I
found
out.
E
I
didn't
know
about
a
couple
of
the
candidates,
so
I
think
the
residents
should
be
able
to
see
that
now.
If
a
particular
participant
or
candidate
does
not
want
the
public
to
know
about
it,
then
it's
at
their
discretion
to
say
no,
don't
put
it
online,
but
I
think
it
should
be
available
to
everybody
to
see
in
my
opinion,
because
otherwise
what
would
happen?
Let's
just
use
a
random
name.
You
know
joe
smith,
you
know
for
them.
Look
up
joe
smith.
E
There's
three
million
joe
smiths
they're,
not
gonna,
know
if
it's
the
right
one
they're
not
gonna,
be
able
to
look
up
a
lot
of
information
on
them
and
then
it's
just
not
gonna
go
good,
it's
much
better
for
them
to
get
their
resumes
and
whatever
we
have
access
to
and
then
they'll
also
see
the
interviews.
And
then
I
do
want
the
residents
and
their
input
as
far
as
who
they
feel.
We
should
select
that
in
my
eyes
that
would
play
a
role
for
sure.
I
Good
evening,
thank
you.
Thank
you,
mayor
kim.
I
want
to
say
good
evening
to
everyone
that
I
come
to
you
tonight,
I'm
going
to
appeal
to
you
as
elected
officials.
I
do
not
wish
to
offend
anyone
at
all.
I've
sat
where
you're
sitting
for
over
nine
years.
You
have
a
very
difficult
decision
ahead
of
you,
this
extremely
important
decision,
probably
one
of
the
most
important
you
we
probably
have
had
in
over
four
to
five
years.
I
You
know
I
want
to
remind
you.
Our
community
has
experienced
a
great
loss
of
our
mayor
who
served
this
community
for
over
40
years.
He
brought
stability
and
knowledge.
The
city
has
experienced
several
changes
over
the
last
six
to
eight
months.
You
have
a
new
city
clerk,
a
new
comptroller,
a
new
treasure,
and
now
you
have
a
decision
before
you
to
appoint
a
new
mayor.
I
Our
community
needs
our
leadership
to
rally
behind
stabilizing
the
city
and
begin
the
healing
process.
Stabilization
is
the
buzzword
for
the
night.
I
remind
our
council
members
that
the
city
of
dearborn
heights
is
in
the
process
of
securing
a
municipal
bond.
If
you
recall
for
the
cso
projects
during
this
projects,
excuse
me
process,
I'm
going
to
tell
you
that
part
of
the
process
is
a
mandatory
rating
review
for
the
city
of
dearborn
heights,
which
will
affect
our
bond
rating.
I
They
will
look
at
our
financial
records.
They'll.
Look
at
how
stable
we
are
financially
current
fiscal,
health
and
fiscal
stability.
But
do
you
know
what
else
I
want
you
to
know
that
they
will
look
at?
I
have
been
informed
that
they
will
google
search
and
look
up
everything
that's
going
on
in
our
city,
and
they
will
consider
those
factors
that
I
just
shared
with
you
about
stability.
I
It's
not
uncommon
for
them
to
research,
that
kind
of
information
for
it
to
be
reviewed.
So
what
am
I
asking
you
please?
I
implore
you
to
vote
and
make
a
decision
to
appoint
to
fair
them
to
fill
the
mayor's
term
and
my
council
seats,
if
you
don't
do
it
tonight,
because
I
understand
I
fully
support
due
diligence.
J
J
If
the
city
does
not
voluntarily
post
those
resumes,
I
will
file
a
foreign
request
for
those
resumes
because
they
are
public
records
and
I
will
post
them
online.
So
I
hope
that
the
city
just
voluntarily
does
it
on
our
own,
because,
if
not
I'll
file
for
request
form
second
thing
I
want
to
state
is
that
every
member
of
the
city
council
should
go
home
or
you're
at
home
already
tonight
and
ask
yourselves
what
are
we
doing
here?
J
How
do
you
set
up
a
special
meeting
that
serves
no
purpose
and
you're,
not
even
voting
on
anything?
Here
I
mean
that's
just
like
the
lack
of
communication
between
yourselves
and
a
clerk
where
you
set
up
a
meeting,
and
you
have
members
wanting
to
vote
on
something.
It's
not
even
on
the
agenda.
I
mean
these
gridlocks
needs
to
be
solved
is
because
you're
just
spinning
your
wheels
meeting
after
meeting
at
the
meeting
talking
about
replacing
the
mayor
talking
about
replacing
corporation
council,
the
city
needs
to
move
forward.
Thank
you.
K
Hello
and
thank
you
mayor
pro
tem
and
council
members-
I
I
had
no
intention
of
speaking
today.
First
of
all,
I
want
to
say
that
I'm
very,
I
have
very
good
relationships
with
some
of
the
council
members
that
have
spoken
today,
very
good
with
them.
I'm
a
little
disappointed
in
and
one
of
the
council
members
who
you
know,
filled
an
appointed
seat.
Who
happened
to
say
that
that
we
shouldn't
that
we
that
everyone
knows
who's
on.
You
know
who's
running
and
there's
no
need
to.
You
know.
K
I
thought
that
was.
That
was
very
disingenuous
because,
and
I
echo
the
words
of
my
fellow
resident
greg
and
his
family,
who
shared
those
very
similar
concerns.
Democracy
dies
behind
closed
doors.
There
are
172
people
in
this
zoom
call
right
now
that
should
hear
every
single
candidate
that
you
know
interview.
They
should
hear
the
credentials.
K
I
know
that
councilman
dave
abdullah
shared
that
earlier.
You
know
the
thought
that
you
know
that
that
we
would
be
above
you
know
our
public.
You
know
public
servant
right,
you
serve
the
public,
you
serve
us,
the
residents
of
dearborn
heights
and
so,
like
I
said
we
can
agree
to
disagree
on
certain
things
like
I
said,
I
respect
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
these
council
members,
but
that
last
thing
that
was
said
about
you
know
we
know
everyone,
that's
running.
No,
I
I
not
everyone
knows
everyone,
that's
running
and
there's
174.
K
L
B
E
J
E
A
And
councilman
muscat-
I
put
that
on
there
just
so
that
you
I
could
forward
it
to
you
guys.
You
guys
didn't
direct
me
to
that,
but
I
knew
the
meeting
was
tonight
at
7.
Okay,
thank
you.
You
know,
so
you
didn't
direct
me
to
I
mean
I
took
out
the
presentation
part
on
it
because
I
didn't
have
you
know,
because
a
process
wasn't
set
up.
D
A
D
B
N
Yes,
okay,
my
name's
leslie
winless.
I
live
at
23469
annapolis
street
in
dearborn
heights,
michigan
48125.
I
wanted
to
I
raised
in
my
hand
like
towards
the
beginning.
I
heard
a
lot
of
other
people
pretty
much
say
everything
I
was
gonna
say,
but
I
guess
I
still
wanted
to
talk
and
echo
what
they're
saying,
which
is
that
I
don't
think
a
process
like
this
should
be
rushed.
N
N
I
don't
know
why
it
would
be
different
for
a
position
that
has
you
know
more
responsibility
than
a
city
council
seat.
So
if
you
guys
have
already
set
a
deadline,
well
one,
I
think
you
should
honor
the
deadline.
If
you
sent
it
out
that
it
was
due
at
10,
am
then
only
the
resumes
that
were
sent
by
10
am
should
be
reviewed.
N
The
last
thing
I
want
to
say
is
that
another
reason
why
I
think
residents
are
so
interested
is
because
there
are
a
lot
of
things
like
treasurer
lisa,
hicks
clayton
brought
up
that
are
going
on
in
the
city
that
require
people
who
are
aware
of
what's
going
on.
So
that's
one
reason
why.
I
think
that
we
all
want
to
hear
the
interview
answers
to
the
questions,
because
there's
so
much
going
on
that
we
can't
take
somebody
that
needs
a
bunch
of
training.
N
So
I
think
if
you
heard
most
of
the
residents
speaking
you
hear
me
speak.
We
really
would
like
you
guys
to
take
your
time.
Look
over
the
cover
letters.
I
agree
with
charles
blackwell.
The
resumes
and
everything
should
be
public
so
that
we
can
all
make
an
informed
decision
and
make
it
an
informed
public
comment
when
it
is
time
to
vote
for
the
mayor-
and
I
can't
remember
who
it
was.
But
somebody
else
already
pointed
out
that
we
have
30
days
and
I
yield
the
rest
of
my.
N
O
O
O
P
Yes,
council
chair:
this
is
steve
lavkovich,
I'm
on
mary's
computer,
though
thanks
for
your
time.
One
thing
I
would
like
to
say
is
a
is
a
long
time
resident
and
past
employee
of
the
city
of
dearborn
heights
is
that
I
truly
appreciate
the
council
taking
as
much
time
as
necessary
to
make
an
informed
decision
about
filling
the
vacancy
in
the
mayor's
office.
P
P
B
B
Q
Sam,
do
you
want
heights
michigan
wayne
county
garlic
street
just
to
clarify
to
what
mr
musket
has
mentioned
and
to
echo
he
said,
according
to
the
publication
that
the
clerk
have
posted
online,
it
says
the
letter
of
interest
and
resume
must
be
received
in
the
the
office
of
the
city.
Clerk
no
later
than
10
o'clock
am
on
tuesday
january
19
2021.
Q
So
it's
giving
up
a
specific
date
and
specific
time
going
back
to
the
main
point
that
everybody
keeps
mentioning
one
week
doesn't
bother.
Let
the
concept
take
their
time.
We
do
have
30
days
the
mayor
deceased
19
days
ago,
so
we're
we're
already.
We
have
wasted
19
days.
We
cannot
wait
for
another
week.
Q
C
C
The
30
days
set
forth
on
the
charter
has
not
even
passed
yet
so
to
say
by
by
taking
applications
by
considering
everybody
by
possibly
holding
interviews
by
letting
some
time
pass
before
we
vote
is
not
following.
The
charter
is
ridiculous.
It's
just
the
opposite.
We
just
like
any
business.
We
have
to
follow
the
business
practices
that
we
followed
in
the
past.
S
Hi
this
is
nigel
noon,
live
on
whitefield
street
in
dearborn
heights.
You
know
mr
muscat
mentioned
something
about
the
deadline
being
10
o'clock.
I'm
sure,
if
you
guys
are
aware
of
the
charter,
there
is
no
real
application
process
and
there's
no
deadline
required
by
the
charter.
So
10
o'clock
deadline
is
irrelevant.
You
can
nominate
mickey
mouse
right
now.
If
there's
a
motion
on
the
table
and
the
council,
could
you
know
vote
on
it?
S
I
don't
feel
that
it
is
a
waste
of
our
time,
even
if
it
means
waiting
until
the
last
day
to
pick
the
right
person.
You
know
you
can
say
it's
a
waste
of
time.
We
waited
all
this
time.
Well,
I
don't
feel
that
way.
I
feel,
like
the
council
has
a
duty,
just
as
we
do
as
a
school
board,
we
went
through
an
entire
process
to
make
sure
that
we
picked
the
right
person
to
lead
our
school
district.
Now
this
council
is
is
working
for
thousands
and
thousands
of
residents.
S
B
R
T
R
Background
check,
actually,
are
you
legally,
you
legally
do
background
checks
on
people
for
a
criminal
record.
Is
that
the
background
check
that
you're
looking
for,
because
I
don't
think
as
for
an
elected
position,
that
is
a
requirement
for
an
elected
position,
and
I
want
to
say
that
I
don't
think
that
if,
if
it's
a
criminal
background
check
that
you're
going
at,
that
is
legal,
I
also
want
to
say
that
the
flaw
in
the
charter
is
for
not
for
appointing
an
elected
position
like
we
have
had
lately.
R
R
L
U
U
There
were
comments
about
oh
there's,
so
many
people
here
well
there's
so
many
people
here,
because
this
is
an
important
issue
and
it
shouldn't
be
an
issue.
That's
rushed,
mr
bay.
Doom
was
right
when
he
says
democracy
dies
behind
closed
doors
and
I
agree
with
councilman
abdul
that
we
need
to
make
the
mayoral
candidate's
information
public.
C
C
What's
done,
there's
a
court
of
appeals
case
right
on
point
involving
the
city
of
dearborn,
but
if,
if
we
to
answer
mr
blackburn's
question,
if
if
when
we
say
to
the
applicants,
if
you're
submitting
your
name
you
you
have
to
agree
to
a
background
check
and
then
if
someone
says
I
don't
want
to
agree
to
a
background
check,
we
take
that
into
we
don't
do
a
background
check.
We
take
that
into
account
when
we
review
their
application,
but
that's
the
response
to
that.
Thank
you.
B
D
D
If
you
go
down
there
and
put
your
cursor
down
there,
it
says
participants,
click
on
participants
and
then
over
the
right
hand,
side
where
the
participants
show
up
it'll,
say
ray's
hand.
The
council
chair,
then,
will
see
your
hand
raised.
She
will
lower
it,
not
not
because
she
doesn't
want
you
to
talk.
It'll
put
you
in
an
order
and
from
my
understanding
is
mr
aldel
hawk.
Doesn't
have
that
feature,
and
I
don't
know
if
everybody
else
has
it,
but
it
should
be
there.
D
F
E
Yes,
we
can,
I
mean
the
discretion
further
charter
is
on
us
as
far
as
what
we
want
to
do
and
how
we
want
to
do
it
and
when
we
want
to
do
it
so
there's
no
guidelines
other
than
a
qualified
person,
and
that
word
is
basically
up
to
us
what
is
considered
qualified
and
then
the
person
has
to
be
a
resident
of
dublin
heights
beyond
that,
there's
no
other
quote
unquote
criteria
that
we
have
to
follow
per
the
charter.
So
therefore
background
check
is
ahead,
our
discretion.
E
It
should
should
clarify
this
30-day
thing,
because
that
30-day
thing
keeps
coming
up
and
it
seems
like
every
resident
has
got
a
totally
different
idea
as
to
what
that
stands
for.
So
I
think,
madam
clerk,
if
you
clarify
what
that
is,
for,
I
think
it'd
be
a
good
idea
for
our
residents
to
hear
in
maybe
the
wrong
way.
A
I
don't
have
the
charter
in
front
of
me,
but
I
from
what
I
understand
that
30
days
is
just
for.
After
the
30
days,
the
mayor
pro
tem
salary
is
reviewed,
and
I
think
it's
up
to
you
guys
whether
or
not
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
hr
or
mr
miyaki.
I
believe
that's
what
it's
for
it
doesn't
there's
no
limit
on
on
or
no
time
constraint
on
when
the
appointment
has
to
be
made
correct.
A
G
G
V
Okay,
one
one
other
observation:
our
city
is
now
without
a
mayor
without
a
council
person,
and
I
believe
that,
yes,
we
want
to
be
open,
and
several
people
are
here
who
are
interested
and
know
who
these
people
are.
I
believe
we
need
a
vote
tonight
to
get
this
rolling,
or
this
is
going
to
go
on
forever.
B
B
I
am
doing
there's
nothing
lacking
here
at
city
hall
in
regards
to
the
position
for
mayor,
so
I
just
want
to
reassure
you
that
we're
not
lacking
the
streets
are
still
getting
sweeped.
You
know,
maintenance
is
still
being
done
to
the
roads.
Everything's
in
building
permits
are
going
out.
Nothing
has
stopped
at
all.
V
V
I
Okay,
so
it's
a
review
is
what
it
is
it'll
be
like
poor's
and
standard
who
does
our
our
rating?
We
are
right
now.
We've
already
started
the
bonding
process
when
council
voted
originally
to
accept
the
projects
to
be
bonded,
for,
if
you
recall
back
in
october,
so
we've
already
started
meeting
and
we're
anticipating
from
what
I've
been
advised
by
bond
council.
It
would
be
possibly
as
early
as
march.
I
T
T
You
hear
me
or
no
yes,
okay,
good
evening,
to
all.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
I
think
that
the
residents
want
to
see
this
process
done,
we're
tired
of
watching
every
week,
for
you
guys
to
decide
on
the
control
seat
and
we're
worried
about
the
mayor's
seat.
If
it
is
that
you
want
a
background
check,
let's
just
reopen
the
application
process
and
specify
that
you
know
to
people
to
consent
to
a
background
check
we
we
should
not
continue
to
drag
this
process
on.
T
B
F
W
F
F
A
B
X
Yes,
I
raised
my
hand
many
times
and
I'm
not
that
you
know
smart
to
to
see
how
to
raise
my
hand
on
this
system
good
evening.
Everyone
I
have
been
listening
to
this
for
almost
21
days,
the
clerks
at
ten
o'clock,
tuesday,
a
deadline-
and
we
all
know
at
two
o'clock.
I
called
the
clerk's
office
and
they
said
mr
kennezik
is
not
submitting
his
papers
so
he's
out
all
the
sudden
he
is
back.
X
G
G
X
Okay,
tom,
I
agree
with
you
thousand
percent
right.
That's
why
all
this
is
going
around.
You
don't
need
any
applications.
You
don't
need
anything
to
know
about
the
candidates
you
can
do
that
later
on.
The
charter
is
clear:
if
somebody
doesn't
pass
the
background
check
doesn't
do
their
job
within
the
next
90
days,
including
the
appointee.
You
can
remove
them
as
city
council.
X
X
Last
city
council
meeting,
you
nominated
somebody
and
somebody
seconded,
and
you
never
voted
on
it.
I
wonder
why
nobody
brought
that
subject
that
there
is.
There
was
a
motion
in
second
on
the
floor
and
nobody
bothered
to
take
a
vote
on
it.
I
ask
you
to
stop
dragging
this
issue.
You
have
great
candidates,
you
know
who
they
are
go
ahead.
If
you
want
to
nominate
somebody
on
the
floor,
go
ahead
and
nominate
them,
but
please
the
city
need
a
mayor
and
stop
dragging
it.
It's
your
responsibility.

One
seventh
of
a
council
is
missing
right
now
you
have
a
whole
leader
of
a
branch
that
is
missing
right
now.
The
department
heads
are
doing
everything
that
we
can
to
continue
and
we
will
continue
to
keep
the
city
stable.
It's
the
departments,
that's
keeping
stable,
we've
always
kept
it
stable
dearborn
heights
is
a
family.
L
We
are
lifeblood
that
con
consists
of
you
events
that
consist
of
me
as
a
resident.
I
invest
my
money,
I'm
an
investor,
I'm
an
employee
there,
there's
people
here
with
70s
homes,
there's
other
people
here.
That
may
just
be
a
runner
but
they're
investing
their
time
and
their
effort
in
this
community.
This
is
very,
very,
very
serious
and
it
should
not
be
taken
lightly.
Anybody
that
comes
in
could
destroy
the
city
in
a
matter
of
