001I'd like to call this special session of the board to order. Please stand and join us in the pledge. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> Okay. The one and only agenda item this evening is to appoint a new member to the vacant Clinton City board spot or seat. Um obviously we held a uh another special session on Monday night and interviewed five candidates. Uh and uh now it's time to consider those five candidates for selection board. Uh those five candidates without without in with no particular order are Brandon Kelshimemer, Nick Hall, Jeff Gner, Shay Addison, and Brian Limits. Okay. Okay, the protocol how we'll do this kind of similar
002for board members as we do officer elections. Uh we'll take uh basically a nomination to make a motion to propose a candidate. Uh that would require a second. Um we'll we'll see if there's multiple candidates uh which would be require multiple motions and seconds. Uh upon uh the conclusion of that, I'd ask for a motion to close close the candidates. Um once we close that, we'll take a vote. Um and the ultimate candidate requires a majority of the board members present. Looks like there's five members present. So, uh the candidate with three votes will or more will become the new board member. Any questions? So, we're going to make a motion to nominate. >> That's correct. >> No vote. Let me see if there's another >> We'll see if there's multiple kids. >> Yeah. So,
