Oh wait... Friend bringing up petitions again. "On the one hand we kinda said you can't gather signatures online. I think I'm hearing you also can't gather them in real life."

Absolute silence from the rest of council.

Friend: "It felt like at the end of last week we said go ahead and set up tables and knock on doors." Now we're hearing it's not an exception to the stay-at-home order. "If I were a petition signature gatherer, I wouldn't know what to do."

Brautigam: "I have no clarity to provide. the stay-at-home order is in effect and ppl should be staying at home. The police are not out there after folks..."

Brautigam: If ppl could figure out a safe way to gather signatures, "I don't think we would stop them from doing that."

"The city is not providing guidance on this issue. The rule is to follow the stay-at-home order."

OH. MY. GOSH.

Basically, you're on your own. Stay at home. Or don't. Cops probably won't get you.

Carr: "To be clear, the council only acts by motion or ordinance or resolution. There was no motion."

Carr: "The orders are still in effect and the last thing anyone wants ppl to do is risk their lives in any way ... I'm not sure what guidance the city should give. Public health folks have issued orders to stay at home.

Signature gathering has a certain level of risk."

Weaver: This is a subject we've already discussed once. If this is something we want to bring up again, we should take it to CAC.

That's the scheduling committee.

Brockett: It would be great to hear back from public health their official opinion. If they don't think ppl should be gathering signatures, I would support bringing that back up.

OK, Weaver says, in a very annoyed voice. We'll bring it back up to CAC.

The scheduling committee is Weaver, Yates and Nagle, who were all VERY against doing anything so.... good luck with that.

OK gonna wrap this and do another one for the budget stuff. @threadreaderapp please unroll. Thank you!
