The Mayor is 'excused' by Vice-Mayor David Luna in another thrilling and exciting session of your elected government in this study session that lasts a grand total of 11 minutes - it's the usual 'Don't ask any questions', or if you do - like D1 Councilmember Mark Freeman asking about Item 5-e [toxic substances] saying jokingly his question is way-over-his-pay-grade when it's important about discharges into the toxic waste discharge system in response to ADEQ - turns out ADEQ can contest it since it's not in the city's code
Item 6 No questions
Item 7 No questions
Item 8 Utility Rate Increases [Jeremy Whittaker]
           Item 8-a requires a 60-day Notice
