The meeting commenced with a flag salute led by Councilmember Smith, followed by an invocation that reflected on Juneteenth, emphasizing the importance of freedom and justice.

Mayor's acknowledgment of the fire and rescue teams set a positive tone for the evening. The council then addressed potential conflicts of interest, with Councilmember Gillespie recusing himself from a donation agreement discussion due to his role on the board of Ivins Inspired.
