The council evaluated land acquisitions aimed at expanding and connecting local park and trail systems. Specifically, they approved a public necessity resolution to acquire a small private parcel to create a safe pedestrian path connecting the Discovery and Burnt Bridge Creek trails. They also discussed using Park Impact Fee funds to purchase a 2.7-acre property that will expand Fairgrounds Community Park and eventually create an access connection to Whipple Creek Regional Park.

46:02 And like she said many, many times, and I've read it, this is all for the human population. And you know what? Pretty much screw you, birds, go ahead and die. Because the people need this, and the people need that. Well, the people need their birds and their bees, and we need to protect our environment for them. And if this trail wants to protect the animals, then they should put things along the trail to welcome birds and let them know they're safe and that they won't be dying by the billions. Another thing is that it should be glow-in-the-dark painted so that in the night it will be safer. And for example, when I go to Sacramento or LA, whatever, down I-5, I cross the Oregon-California border. They stop me. They say, do you have any fruit? They don't charge. I say, nope, or eat it because they don't want fruit from Oregon and California. And you keep going. And the more you drive down I-5, there's another phone, and another phone, and another phone.
47:01 But it can call 911 in case of an emergency. So if these trails are secluded, we know that the homeless love invading and making their little tents and doing their drugs along those little creeks that are hidden from the public. So I do suggest putting those phone lines up and down the walkways in case of emergency. And they should glow-in-the-dark in case of an emergency. I'm just saying, you care so much about the public, let them feel safe walking in a secluded dark area. You know what I mean? What was the other one? Let me see. Yeah, so yeah, pretty much you only care about the humans. And there's no regard for the bird population or anything else. So I do suggest bird-friendly trail and anything friendly because when the house next door to me got bulldozed, the very next day, the raccoons were roadkill. So as soon as we build, all the animals die.
48:00 Think about that. OK, thank you. Is there anyone else? Chair, that concludes public comment. Thank you very much. Any further comments or questions from the council? And if not, I'll entertain a motion.
