Public comment was first. Many information was spoken about, but the focus was mainly on 2023 Palestinian ceasefire resolution in Cleveland. Gaza was also spoken about, the death toll, and all of the other cities that are passing resolutions, besides Cleveland.

Last week, Councilman Griffin said, “After talking with many of my colleagues, Cleveland City Council does not feel we are in a position to issue a fair and unbiased ceasefire resolution." Many of the public comment was towards Blaine's comments.

This is the 12th week the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) has been in city council and asking for a ceasefire. Judging by the amount of people, they are all mad at councilman Griffin and his comments.

Roles were called on all of the Ordinances and they were all Yays.

The chanting has begun regarding to Palestinian community, and it sounds like they were kicked out; as you could hear the chants slowly fade away. This was addressed by no one on the council. @CleCityCouncil

Thanks were given to Director Martin by Councilman Griffin. He said that they all love their jobs on the council and it was a long process.
