Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Thank you so much for listening to me. If you can speak into the mic to make sure we hear you, thank you.

Weve never been late on our rent, weve never asked for any big improvements, anything thats ever been taken to the building hes taken to the rent berd and had it passed down to us. Weve paid for every improvement ever done in 25 years and now we have to leave. Thank you, supervisor campos, for mentioning my thought today. Once the advocates and artists are gone, who will be left in our city . This is the heart and soul. Thank you, next speaker, thank you, miss upton.
