The Chair reviewed the marked agenda that the Council Auditor’s Office had prepared. There are eight (8) items ready for action, two (2) items being deferred and one (1) item being seconded and re-referred.
On Item #2, RESO 2026-536, Council Member Jim Love, sponsor of the resolution, explained that the substitute resolution was crafted to resolve concerns about the resolution that were raised at Monday’s NCIS meeting. Assistant Auditor Kyle Billy explained that the amendment deleted the reference to urging the Governor to reconsider recommendations before sending the recommendations to the EPA because the Governor had, in fact, already sent the recommendations to EPA.
The Chair announced that Item #9, ORD 2016-598, Approp $1,586,354 (FEMA Assistance to Firefighters Grant of $1,442,140….).., would be the first item to consider at the Committee meeting because JFRD staff had to leave the meeting to prepare for the impending hurricane.
