Council President Verna

This bill having been read on two different days the question now is: Shall the bill pass finally? The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Tasco.

Councilwoman Tasco

Thank you, Madam President. Madam President, I'd like to 12/14/07 STATED - SECOND-READING CALENDAR urge my colleagues on Council to vote for this bill, which will provide the appropriations authority to spend $30 million of the Fiscal Year 06 fund balance surplus for Police, Fire, and Recreation facilities. We heard testimony last week in our Appropriations Committee that this spending is very important. It's a surplus, and it does help us with our fire stations, our recreation centers, and our police facilities. So I urge all Councilmembers to vote for it.

Council President Verna

Thank you. The Chair recognizes Councilman O'Neill.

Councilman O'Neill

Yes, Madam President. I'd like to thank you and the Majority Whip for your leadership on this, and just stress how important it is from a timing standpoint, but also I 12/14/07 STATED - SECOND-READING CALENDAR want to thank the Chair of the Appropriations Committee, Councilwoman Joan Krajewski, and the committee. This is so dire. We're in such dire need at our rec centers and at our police and fire stations for this money, and it is being done all over the country on a pay-as-you-go-when-you-can. And also, from what I understand, would not be a problem with PICA. Thank you.

Council President Verna

Thank you. This bill having been read on two different days, the question now is: Shall the bill pass finally? I would ask the Chief Clerk to please call the roll.
