To go and get your hair done or your nails done or to go and workout at the gym and enjoy your time there, but just think about how much more important it was to the people who were finally able to open their business, who were finally able to get a paycheck, who finally had some level of certainty in their lives that they would be able to take care of themselves. Now, think about whats happening now. Im sure that so many of those people are scared. Last week we told the restaurants that they would no longer be able to operate indoors. What that meant was not only layoffs, but it also meant that there was a lot of lost revenue because of the food that they no longer were able to use.

Sheesh. Chair fewer president yee, are you done with questioning, because i see supervisor ronen in the queue. President yee yeah, i have a few more, but go ahead. Chair fewer okay. Supervisor ronen . Supervisor ronen i dont want to cutoff president yee. I actually have a similar version of a question, so maybe you can finish up because i very much agreed with everything you had to say.

Thank you. I dont really have any words. I will be an up and down meeting. We have a meeting with the school of the arts and a reading from school of the arts. Commissioner collins, did you want to chime in here . I just want to say that even though this has been a very difficult time, i think its also showing us ive been getting a lot of hope from youth and from what im seeing and so a senior with the school of the arts and i think that she excepexemplifies the intelligen, intellect and just the leadership that we see in so many of our youth, including those who are serving on the board with us. And i just really appreciate that shes willing to share her talent with us and i think she serves as an example for adults who should be doing everything we can to support youth. I think that gives me hope and inspiration when im looking at just what our next steps should be. And i just really appreciate jara and im glad she can be here. Thank you, Commission Collins. Miss martin. Thank you. I
