Yield my time. You. Lets hear from the next caller, please. Hello caller, are you with us . Ladies and gentlemen of the board, good evening. I stand before you today to discuss a issue that effects each and every resident of our community. The state of our Public Transit system.

Of course, theres much more detail to go into and to be explored in later conversations, but just so you guys have a sense of what conclusions or what sort of takeaways we were able to come out with with our conversations. I missed my clicker here. So d looks like we have a little fault with our visuals here. But as doug, anthony, and donni
