START OF TRANSCRIPT

[00:00:28] Coming through. This is Commissioner Peter Steinbrueck.

[00:00:34] I'm getting lots of notifications that people can hear us and including Commissioner Steinbrueck, is that right?

[00:00:40] Yeah. And Lauren, we need to be alerted at any point and interrupt if there should be any break in the video streaming.

[00:00:50] Will do.

[00:00:51] We can recess the meeting if necessary. Again, I'd like to go back to the previous bylaws, amend a motion to make sure that it was

recorded. We don't know exactly when the video was cut off. So I would like to call a revote.

[00:01:15] Commissioner--.

[00:01:16] A motion to wave the bylaws through April 30th regarding standing committees and meetings in public that they be electronically recorded.

[00:01:27] So moved.

[00:01:29] Moved. Is there a second?

[00:01:31] We're not even back in session. Did you call the meeting back in the session?

[00:01:34] We are back in session. Yes. I'm sorry, Commissioner Cho.

[00:01:40] Commissioner Steinbrueck. Since we have recessed...

[00:01:43] Why don't I call the roll, make sure everyone's on the line. And then I can comment on the reconsideration that you're asking for.

[00:01:53] All right.

[00:01:55] This is for a roll call for presence. Please respond with whether you're here. Commissioner. Bowman?

[00:02:01] Here.

[00:02:02] Commissioner Calkins?

[00:02:04] Here.

[00:02:05] Commissioner Cho?

[00:02:07] Commissioner Felleman?

[00:02:09] Here.

[00:02:10] And Commissioner Steinbrueck is present. Commissioner. You certainly can move to reconsider the vote on that bylaws waiver. But the

fact that the meeting was not being video streamed at that time does not invalidate that vote. We have that vote recorded. It was 5 yay's 0 nays.

[00:02:30] All right. Let's then go on to the next item and we'll rewind the tape a little bit on the executive director's report and ask that he start over

on his report. That will be followed by some comments by me. And then we'll open to Port Commissioner comments regarding the crisis that we're in.
