Council,
I offer my sincere condolences for the loss of one of your members, and one of our beloved leaders, Frank Dederich. However, I am also aware that as of yet no way of selecting who will take office in the event of a tie (as we see with myself and Mister Dentra) has yet been devised.
In an effort to keep out government body from being one man short, and locked in debate on how to best decide who shall take office, I would like to yield the position to Mister Dentra, so that we may keep things moving along swiftly.
Best Regards, ~Nicolae Lecuyer
