City of Ferndale - City Council Meeting 04-28-2025

Leave, and head to the capital in order to speak on behalf of municipalities. So, it's an important thing. I'm proud to be part of it, and I am glad that, we have them on our side. As far as the initiative that I've spoke of, this is something that, they're keeping their eye on. And once I learn more, I will keep I will keep you abreast of it because I've had email after email from individuals, some some in this community, some not, asking why we're not a sanctuary city.

So I just want you to know that, and what I tell those individuals is that Ferndale's been a long time community where we sort of built a reputation for ourselves that it's a welcoming community. And it's not something that we have to turn into sanctuary status because it's something that's understood, in this community. And I don't see that going away anytime soon because this community is way too involved, way too strong to let someone, come in and tell us that we can't welcome people in this community. So I just wanted to state that. I think it's important because I've heard a lot of traction regarding it.

I don't know if anyone else has, but I know I have. But with that being said, I'm opening it up for counsel for any last questions or comments because I know sometimes it can come up. Alright? Vote Tuesday. Vote Tuesday.

Yes. Support our schools and support our city and our staff and our and our services for sure. I know me and my three sons and my daughter who's coming home from school, you already have a yes vote from us. So with that being said, this meeting
