Special Called City Council meeting (Part 2)| November 4, 2025

No description available.

But let's talk about your vote today. I want to talk about Seda Siad. She's the only candidate that saved your school district. Your school district was about to vote persona nongrada. They had a meeting on the 28th much as you did. Then they had a meeting on the 29th. And you know, if you have greater than 5% of the vote, you have to vote in the first or second meeting or you forfeit your right to vote. This happened to Arlington in 2023. Now, in your solicitation, it says in there K1 under 603, but I guess it got glossed over because Carmen Aretta Candeleria, she quit the CFO 23rd of September. It fell through the cracks. Miss Sed was in Detroit at a wedding. She called me said "Joe they have a meeting on the 28th, the meeting on the 29th, and the TAD vote is not on their agenda. What are you?" She's at a wedding. So, what I did, I called Michael Ryan, trustee. He contacted Miss Martinez, chair of the board. They cancelled the meeting on the 29th and they rescheduled for today securing the rights of your school district to vote. And Matt, Miss Parker, Mayor Parker, you were there August 27th in 20 20 was it three? No, what is two years ago? But anyway, they secured the right much like you did. Thank you. >> I like the thank the school like to thank you >> council. That's the conclusion of our speakers on this item. Council member Flores, I believe you have a motion. >> I don't have anybody else sign up for speak correct? >> No. >> No. >> Council Flores. Cra, excuse me. Go ahead. Mayor, due to my role on the TAD board, out of an abundance of caution, I'll be abstaining from this conversation and vote. >> Thank you, Allan. Council member Flores. >> Thank you, Mayor. Have the following motion. I move to approve item 25-5518 with the following modification. If it is later determined that the city of Fort Worth is entitled to a different number of votes than 281, this resolution will be considered to be authorizing the casting of all such votes for the named candidate. >> Got a motion council and a second. Any other discussion? If not, please vote. The second was by council crane. Motion carries. >> Mayor, that concludes all of the items. >> Thank you. Council meeting is adjourned.
