06:36.000 --> 06:43.000
Call to order, Mr. Mayor.

06:43.000 --> 06:49.000
May the motion suspend the rules.

06:49.000 --> 06:51.000
Is that for everyone or for the?

06:51.000 --> 06:52.000
Got it.

06:52.000 --> 06:53.000
Okay.

06:53.000 --> 06:55.000
Everyone want to stand up so everybody

06:55.000 --> 06:56.000
sees.

06:56.000 --> 06:57.000
I'm just kidding.

06:57.000 --> 07:04.000
All right.

07:04.000 --> 07:11.000
I think we can proceed.

07:11.000 --> 07:16.000
Let the record reflect that a

07:16.000 --> 07:19.000
Quorum is present.

07:35.000 --> 07:37.000
Good?

07:37.000 --> 07:39.000
Okay.

07:39.000 --> 07:41.000
Please stand for a moment of silence

07:41.000 --> 07:44.000
followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.

07:52.000 --> 08:13.000
Thank you.

08:13.000 --> 08:14.000
And just to make sure we're all

08:14.000 --> 08:15.000
legal.

08:15.000 --> 08:16.000
General, for the attention,

08:16.000 --> 08:18.000
did you make a motion to suspend

08:18.000 --> 08:19.000
the rules?

08:19.000 --> 08:20.000
Is there a second?

08:20.000 --> 08:21.000
Move in a second.

08:21.000 --> 08:22.000
It's to suspend the rules

08:22.000 --> 08:23.000
regarding the dress code.

08:23.000 --> 08:24.000
All those in favor say aye.

08:24.000 --> 08:25.000
Aye.

08:25.000 --> 08:26.000
Any opposed?

08:26.000 --> 08:29.000
I can't vote.

08:29.000 --> 08:33.000
Please continue.

08:33.000 --> 08:34.000
Citizens, comments?

08:34.000 --> 08:35.000
Do we have any citizens?

08:35.000 --> 08:37.000
Do we have any citizen comments?

08:37.000 --> 08:39.000
There will be a public hearing on

08:39.000 --> 08:41.000
your item if you would like to at

08:41.000 --> 08:42.000

license located at Harbor Park

08:58.000 --> 09:00.000

09:00.000 --> 09:01.000

09:01.000 --> 09:04.000

It's not noticed, but I will

09:08.000 --> 09:10.000

We just need your name and

09:20.000 --> 09:21.000
address for the record, please,

09:21.000 --> 09:22.000
sir.

09:22.000 --> 09:23.000
Okay.

09:23.000 --> 09:29.000
James Schweitzer, 7530-33rd Avenue

09:29.000 --> 09:34.000
for it, Kenosha, 531-42.

09:34.000 --> 09:36.000
I'm the secretary for Kenosha

09:36.000 --> 09:38.000
Shrine Club, and we work jointly

09:38.000 --> 09:40.000
with happenings magazine doing

09:40.000 --> 09:41.000
beer gardens throughout the

09:41.000 --> 09:42.000
summer.

09:42.000 --> 09:45.000
And as Miss Fortune and

09:45.000 --> 09:47.000
noble days would have it, I

09:47.000 --> 09:49.000
didn't read my calendar properly.

09:49.000 --> 09:51.000
And I thought I had time to put

09:51.000 --> 09:54.000
my application in for the beer

09:54.000 --> 09:56.000
permit when I did, and it was a

09:56.000 --> 09:58.000
couple of days after the meeting

09:58.000 --> 09:59.000
was actually scaled.

09:59.000 --> 10:01.000
It would have been held to,

10:01.000 --> 10:03.000
would have been authorizing or

10:03.000 --> 10:07.000
not, you know, with you folks.

10:07.000 --> 10:09.000
So I can't do anything except

10:09.000 --> 10:13.000
apologize, and I certainly

10:13.000 --> 10:18.000
appreciate you guys showing up

10:18.000 --> 10:21.000
and taking this under your

10:21.000 --> 10:22.000
advisement.

10:22.000 --> 10:24.000
If I had a hat, it would be in my

10:24.000 --> 10:26.000
hand right now, to be very

10:26.000 --> 10:27.000
honest.

10:27.000 --> 10:30.000
Our aspect, with the shrine

10:30.000 --> 10:32.000
aspect of this, what we do with

10:32.000 --> 10:34.000
the beer gardens, 100% goes to the

10:34.000 --> 10:36.000
hospital in Chicago.

10:36.000 --> 10:39.000
And other than that, we don't get

10:39.000 --> 10:41.000
anything out of our beer

10:41.000 --> 10:42.000
gardens.

10:42.000 --> 10:45.000
We do this several times a year,

10:45.000 --> 10:47.000
and we do all kinds of other

10:47.000 --> 10:48.000
fundraising.

10:48.000 --> 10:51.000
And at this point in time, we've

10:51.000 --> 10:53.000
over the course of the last 100

10:53.000 --> 10:55.000
years of being a club, we've

10:55.000 --> 10:57.000
gone over to half a million

10:57.000 --> 10:59.000
dollar mark in donations.

10:59.000 --> 11:01.000
And we can't tell people how

11:01.000 --> 11:03.000
proud we are of the

11:03.000 --> 11:05.000
generosity of our count.

11:05.000 --> 11:07.000
And be that as it may.

11:07.000 --> 11:09.000
I don't know if you have any

11:09.000 --> 11:10.000
questions for me.

11:10.000 --> 11:13.000
I'd be happy to answer them.

11:13.000 --> 11:14.000
Thank you, sir.

11:14.000 --> 11:15.000
If there are any questions, we'll

11:15.000 --> 11:16.000
call you back up.

11:16.000 --> 11:17.000
Okay.

11:17.000 --> 11:19.000
Apology not necessary.

11:19.000 --> 11:21.000
We appreciate your comments, and

11:21.000 --> 11:22.000
just let you know this city

11:22.000 --> 11:23.000
council shows up.

11:23.000 --> 11:24.000
They may be improperly

11:24.000 --> 11:25.000
addressed, but they show up,

11:25.000 --> 11:26.000
sir.

11:26.000 --> 11:28.000
Anyone else here to speak?

11:28.000 --> 11:29.000
Anyone else?

11:29.000 --> 11:30.000
Anyone else seeing none?

11:30.000 --> 11:31.000
Coles citizen comments?

11:31.000 --> 11:32.000
Gentlemen, from the 5th.

11:32.000 --> 11:33.000
Thank you, Your Honor.

11:33.000 --> 11:34.000
Just one question.

11:34.000 --> 11:36.000
Why Chicago Hospital?

11:36.000 --> 11:38.000
Does Milwaukee not have

11:38.000 --> 11:39.000
any concerns?

11:39.000 --> 11:40.000
No.

11:40.000 --> 11:41.000
Chicago is the closest one.

11:41.000 --> 11:42.000
Thank you.

11:42.000 --> 11:44.000
We've got about 50 kids or more

11:44.000 --> 11:46.000
from Wisconsin to southeast

11:46.000 --> 11:47.000
Wisconsin.

11:47.000 --> 11:49.000
They go to the Chicago Hospital.

11:49.000 --> 11:50.000
Thank you, sir.

11:50.000 --> 11:51.000
Thank you, sir.

11:51.000 --> 11:52.000
Anyone else?

11:52.000 --> 11:54.000
If not, motion on the floor is

11:54.000 --> 11:55.000
approval of item B.

11:55.000 --> 11:57.000
All those in favor say aye.

11:57.000 --> 11:58.000
Aye.

11:58.000 --> 11:59.000
Any opposed?

11:59.000 --> 12:00.000
Motion carries.

12:00.000 --> 12:01.000
Mayor's comments just, I

12:01.000 --> 12:02.000
really appreciate everyone.

12:02.000 --> 12:04.000
I know this as was stated.

12:04.000 --> 12:06.000
There was some confusion there

12:06.000 --> 12:08.000
and I appreciate everybody being

12:08.000 --> 12:10.000
nimble to come in and take care

12:10.000 --> 12:11.000
of this item.

12:11.000 --> 12:13.000
So we want to thank everybody for

12:13.000 --> 12:14.000
your support.

12:14.000 --> 12:15.000
Wish you all the best in your

12:15.000 --> 12:16.000
event.

12:16.000 --> 12:18.000
And I would be looking for a motion

12:18.000 --> 12:20.000
to adjourn on your laptop if

12:20.000 --> 12:21.000
then.

12:21.000 --> 12:22.000
Motion is seconded.

12:22.000 --> 12:23.000
All in favor say aye.

12:23.000 --> 12:24.000
Aye.

12:24.000 --> 12:25.000
We stand adjourned.

12:25.000 --> 12:26.000
Thank you.
