2:32:16because we're gonna move back into closed session.
2:32:19But Councillor Caton, you'll be on in the wings
2:32:22to move the bylaws when we come back, okay?
2:32:24So can I have a motion to move back into closed
2:32:29on the same two items that we did at the beginning?
2:32:34Alt and Hauser, great.
2:32:37And I'll call the vote.
2:32:38Is anyone against moving back into closed
2:32:40on those two items?
2:32:42Okay, that's so unanimous.
2:32:43So thank you very much.
2:32:44We'll close up our conversations in regards to that.
2:32:47And then again, come back out for the high level summary
2:32:50and to do the bylaws and adjournment.
2:32:52Thank you.
2:56:06And Councillor Caton, I don't know if you're there,
2:56:08but if you put on your screen for us, perfect.
2:56:12I just wanna count to make sure we have quorum
2:56:14so that you can help with the bylaws, okay?
2:56:17So one, two, three, four.
2:56:20Yeah, we're good, we have quorum.
2:56:21Okay, if you don't mind, I'll just do
2:56:25the closed session summary first
2:56:26and then I'll go over to you, Councillor Caton,
2:56:28for the bylaws, okay?
2:56:29So we went in closed under those two items.
2:56:33The first being outcome of authority
2:56:37to commence legal claim,
2:56:40and Council did give direction based on that.
2:56:44And on the second item,
2:56:45update expression of interest on 170 Stephanie Drive,
2:56:49Council did give direction on that item as well.
2:56:53And so that's the outcome of the closed session.
2:56:56And now over to Councillor Caton
2:56:57to help us with the bylaws, please.
2:57:00Well, by the way, just before we do that, to the clerks,
2:57:02do we need to change anything on the bylaws
2:57:05because of the deferral and all that kind of stuff earlier?
2:57:07Nope, we're good.
2:57:08Yeah, okay, we're good, go ahead, Councillor Caton.
2:57:13Thank you, it's for you.
2:57:15I move that the bylaws 2020-26-21192,
2:57:222026-21235 and 2026-21250 be approved,
2:57:29subject to section 284.114 of the municipal act.
2:57:37Great, seconded by your award mate.
2:57:39You okay with that Gibson?
2:57:41Okay, anything on the bylaws, anybody?
2:57:44Nope, okay, I'll call the vote.
2:57:45Is anyone against the bylaws?
