There are two callers. First speaker, please. So, again, commissioners, this pandemic, as you can see, very few people want to participate in any of these major projects.

Its going to come to bite you all in the back. Supervisor peskin next speaker, please. Thank you, caller. Your two minutes begins now. Thank y
