And if any project that we should do this and it is a lot of money, but i think that it is money that would be well spent for the community and we will see that, you know, it takes time simply, and that is the frustrating thing about it. But when it does get done. But also to your question, the whole process of these violations that are outstanding, beefing up our Code Enforcement division is helpful because it provides more staff to actually look into these things. And i think that if you look at the budget they have suggested adding people there. Okay. I think that that will help a lot. Because you know, when you take people away from permitting and inspecting it effects those divisions and so focusing really specifically on code endivorcement is really the way to widle down these outstanding violations. In the current year there were two building inspectors added effective january first. They think that we could not fill them until january and that is correct. And we. And the board

They can also result in being referred to the City Attorneys office. Sometimes is that after several years, brings in funding and that essentially offsets the City Attorneys work to get to that. I dont think that it is a money maker or set up to be that way. But, it is, you know, part of of our mission, and based on your concern and the board of supervisors concern we are trying to putoer resources into that. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Deputy Director. Commissioner lee . Yes. I have a question on the over all budget plan. And workforce. I was wondering if the budget takes into account any additional employees that are needed when they are mandatory retrofit Program Starts and if it does not, i am wondering what we are going to do, do we need more employees when that happens. The commissioner, we already in
The nrv does not typically bring in any money, we end up putting in we put in a assessment against their property tax so that they cant and that is if you are already broke, there are, you know, if you are already in bankruptcy, it is difficult to get any more.

In the current year there were two building inspectors added effective january first. They think that we could not fill them until january and that is correct. And we. And the board of supervisors also added a clerk to help with the paperwork because every nrv in the directors hearing requires a significant amount of paperwork and moving the process along. And 13, 14, the board had already approved another building inspector effective october of this year.
