Thank you. I'd like you guys to join me by standing. We're going to have the Pledge of Allegiance by Mayor Pro Tem Holiday, and we're going to have our invocation by Pastor Larry Bogardus from Promise Christian Church. Please stand. Please place your right hand over your heart. Ready? Begin. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Well, it seems like I'm getting to know you a little bit after seeing all the political signs on the street. I'm able to put some faces together with names, and it's good to be here. I also was sitting there recalling that coverage that you got in the news as you were debating or talking about e- bike regulations that made the news. So I hope that discussion went well. Thank you for allowing me to have this privilege of joining with you this afternoon and beginning your meeting with prayer. As many of you know, the Bible instructs Christians to pray for their government. And so it is indeed a privilege for me to be here with you this afternoon. And I want to assure you that if you're anything like Promise Christian Church, there are other churches throughout the city who are praying for you as well on a regular basis. We're praying for our national leaders, our state leaders, and our local leaders also. This afternoon, I want to ask God to give you his wisdom as you govern the affairs of our city. Godly wis …

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Let's pray. Lord Jesus, we thank you that today we are able to come in your name to be able to give back to you our worship and our praise for the lives that you give us, for in you we live and move and have our being. Indeed, we are one nation under God, and we are one city united under God as well. And as the wall in this room states, we trust in you, God, for all things. We pray, Lord, that you would give a blessing over each of our lives. Lord, we pray your blessing upon the mayor, the city council, Lord, the city manager, the staff, all who are involved in helping lead from inside, Lord, but also those who are in the departments that spend time out in the trenches. And we pray, Lord, that your blessing would continue to be upon our police department, our firefighters and others.

And they better take it out, yeah. Good afternoon. Welcome to the regular City Council meeting of September 15th, 2026. Madam City Clerk, can I please have a roll call? Here. Mayor Lavelle. Here. Let the record reflect all members are present with the exception of Council Member DeForest. Thank you very much. At this time, we're going to do the Pledge of Allegiance and Invocation. The Pledge of Allegiance is going to be led by Mr. Ron Holliday, and our Invocation today is led by Jim Jackson of the Orchard Church. Thank you for standing. Please repeat after me. I pledge allegiance to the Father, and to the Republic. It's my pleasure to give the Invocation today, and I just want to say on behalf of the Orchard Church, what a great job you are doing, and I appreciate your hard work in the labor of leadership. Leadership is a special. It's a special weight, but God has placed it on us to help lead people into the future, and we are so appreciative to everybody that is connected to the great city of Marietta. And Proverbs 11, 14 says that with the plans of many, there can be failure, but with good guidance, there can be victory, and I am praying for that and a blessing on our city today and our leadership. Let's pray. Jesus, we ask you for an extra measure of wisdom. Upon the men and women of this city, we ask you for an extra measure of wisdom. Upon the men and women that lead this city, God, our nation and our state and our local officials, God, are in desperate need of your wis …

Thank you. Please rise for the Pledge of Allegiance. We'll have that led tonight by Commissioner Glassman. Ready, begin. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Before we move on, I'm just going to take a few seconds of time just to let people know, and I think a lot of people in the city do know, that we have a missing 14-year-old Marietta Valley High School student. Her parents are obviously very concerned. There's been a lot of talk on Facebook, various social media posts, and she's still among the missing. I don't know her personally. I've known her father since she was 14, but she's well-known in the community. So I just don't know how many people are out there watching on TV. I tend to think that probably fewer than watch the Super Bowl. But if you go to your social media sites that you visit, you probably see something posting. I just want to put that out there. So maybe we can get her home to her parents. Commissioners, we'll move on to the approval of the agenda. Commissioners, are there any changes to the agenda? If none, commissioners, please make a motion and second to approve the agenda. Commissioners, we'll move on to the agenda. Okay, thank you very much. At this time, the meeting will be turned over to Interim Parks and Community Services Manager, Melvin Vasilis. Melvin? Thank you, Chair. Before proceeding with today's agenda, s …
