Thank you Mayor

Having the schedule is helpful. I will suggest sometime during the day and at least by the beginning of deliberations - that we set an end time for the meeting, as we are also posted for Thursday and can continue deliberations then.

I am open to discussion with my colleagues on the appropriate time - and will begin by suggesting 8pm as our end time.

Best Regards
