Councilman Limpert: No, but I will comment. I don't think any of us has said that we want to. I don't think any of us has made the proposal to do so. This is the first time that this is before this Council in the public hearing. John Adamczyk: I've been here once before, this is not the first time. 02-24-26 Public Nearing Minutes - Page 3
