Communications. Happy fall, y'all. Get the PSL. Wear your orange. We're going to go for Halloween. Halloween is coming. I think Jen and I need to coordinate our outfits. We were going to go for a Beetlejuice look last year, and we forgot, or I forgot. So let's talk about attire for the meeting next week. I'm joking. And then a reminder, I can't really talk a little bit more about November, but a reminder that the November meeting is on Thursday, not Wednesday, because of Armistice Day, aka Veterans Day, on the 11th. And so we will be postponed by a day. So make sure you know that as you look ahead a month. I don't think I have anything else to say. That's good, because I got a bunch. I figured you did. Just first, for today's meeting, Lana Thielen from the Parks Department is scheduled to get over here as soon as she's done with her hearing at the planning, or at the Parks Board, which I heard when I wa …
