First of all, for committee members, if possible, if you can keep your video on for the duration of the meeting. However, we do understand that there are a couple members tonight that will likely need to keep their video off. But for the rest of you, if you can keep them on, that'd be great. And please use the raise hand feature or wave if you'd like to be recognized to speak. For members of city staff, please keep your video off for the duration of the meeting unless you are speaking. And likewise, use the raise hand feature to be recognized. For members of the public that are joining us this evening, first of all, thank you for being here. We understand that a couple of you wish to speak. If members of the public, however, can keep their videos off for the duration of the meeting, including during their speaking, that would be greatly appreciated. With that, I will take the roll.

All right thank you so much Susan. Do I want a visual? Does the committee want a visual for what that means? I know what I know this case you're talking about because it's it's beautiful. Yeah yeah does anybody else feel like they need to see a visual of where that space could would be? No that's probably the only space that I could readily identify without a visual. Is there any other public comment? Karin is there anybody else who signed up for public comment? that would like to speak?
