          IT'S MAY 14TH, 2024, AND I WILL CALL TO ORDER THE AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL FOR A SPECIAL CALLED MEETING OF THE AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL. 
          WE ARE MEETING IN THE CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS LOCATED IN CITY HALL AT 3 0 1 WEST SECOND STREET IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, AND THERE IS A QUORUM OF THE AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL PRESENT MEMBERS ON THE I WE HAVE ONE ITEM, UH, ON OUR AGENDA FOR THIS SPECIAL CALL MEETING AND IT'S TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION 
          [1. Approve a resolution canvassing the results of the May 4, 2024, special elections.]

          UH, UNDER STATE LAW, ONLY TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE NECESSARY FOR A QUORUM TO CANVAS AN ELECTION, AND WE HAVE A MAJORITY OF THE AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL PRESENT HERE TODAY.

          I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE CITY ATTORNEY. 
          WHEN SOMEONE DIS ANNEXES, DOES THAT MEAN NOW THEY'RE IN THE ETJ OR THEY OUT OUT? I THINK IT DEPENDS.
