these are the items on the consent agenda thank you Mr Christopher Miss Mosley do we have any requests to speak on an item on the consent agenda no request mayor thank you very much I see council member Freeman has made a motion seconded by council member spillsbury please vote thank you the consent agenda passes unan unanimously next item on our agenda item 5c uh this is approving uh and authorizing the city manager to enter into a one-year agreement with visit Mesa uh I've asked that this be taken from the consent agenda I would like to continue this item the uh the agreement that were that is a very important agreement and that I'm looking forward to uh to endorsing uh by its terms says that that the party that visit Mesa and the downtown Mesa Association need to get together within 30 days and work out uh how they're going to work together uh I think that's a very important U thing to happen so I I would just as soon uh encourage the parties not to wait 30 days but to go ahead and and have those conversations now so that we know what the entirety of the agreement is uh and then as soon as that happens I'm anxious to have this um returned to the council's agenda for our approval so uh so I'm asking that this will be if there's not an objection from the council uh I'm asking that we continue this to allow those discussions to take place that's good all right thank you very much mayor are you asking for continuance until July 1st is that the request uh it's not necessary I I talked with Mr Smith about this and he's counseled me that it's not necessary to identify a date certain because it's not a zoning case I think I would be very happy if we this were uh put back on the agenda for our July 1 meeting but uh and I'm hopeful that's the case but we'll we'll see if that happens or not so and just clarification I mean the current agreement does expire June 30th so there certainly is motivation motivation get it on July 1 yeah yeah I think it would be in everyone's best interest if this were resolved and on our agenda for July 1st yeah so if there's a long delay or do I need to even go into those questions I'm what comes into play after July June if there's no sign there's no agreement then there's no allocation of the bed tax to the visam Mesa the the agreement is that the bed tax that is collected is then allocated to uh visit Mesa and then within the agreement there's a formula of what how much of that comes back to the city uh for its um marketing and act uh um activities events that we have so effectively there wouldn't be an agreement in place that would continue that allocation of dollars to visit Mesa from the Ved tax that's the that's that's the way the agreement it terminates on June 30th so there would be no allocation of taxes until under the agreement expires there wouldn't be an agreement to do that yeah now we could be extended but right now what I'm hearing is we're going to go I mean right now there is no that's why we came that's why this items on the agenda that extends it for another year so mayor I have a question then could the agreement be active July 1st if something was I think if we do it on July 1st we'll be fine okay but otherwise one day is not going to make a difference or hours or whatever we'll be find we'll be finding on July first and I don't know if anybody from visit mace is here but regardless they know they've been told they understand they we explain this to yeah and I I'm hopeful that U the parties will meet you know in the next week and a half or two weeks and this will be back on the agenda for the 1 of July all right thank you moving on items the next item on our agenda items 7 a through 7 C involve the development known as destination at Gateway these
