Yes. You can modify the suspension, but not the fee, the fine, the money. Thank you. Earlier i misunderstood. Thanks. I mean, are we having conversation .

But the reason why i asked for previous background regarding suspensions is that is somewhat of a standard that has been set to follow along with what has been given in the past. I dont know regarding, i guess, the three palms or six palms, how many times they had been caught for violations. So im not sure if we go from 30 to 90, if that is appropriate, or if it is appropriate, that is my feeling. And so im not sure.

This is meant to deliver projects quickly throughout the neighborhoods; only funds design and implementation and we expect report project progress. I will take a break on this; it offers a fantastic summary.
