Um so in 1579 01:11:11,199 --> 01:11:13,840 the event that we would want to just for 1580 01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,080 whatever reason terminate one aspect of 1581 01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:19,440 this is any individual part of that 1582 01:11:19,440 --> 01:11:21,600 something that could be terminated and 1583 01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:22,480 who knows what reason [clears throat] 1584 01:11:22,480 --> 01:11:25,280 that might be but uh or does it stand 1585 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:31,189 alone?

I don't think it 1591 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,480 stipulates that it's all or none. So, I 1592 01:11:44,480 --> 01:11:46,239 think I think we could. Uh, but I can 1593 01:11:46,239 --> 01:11:47,920 definitely get that question answered 1594 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,640 for you.

We're actually uh have a 1614 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:41,679 cost savings of I think $13,000 in this 1615 01:12:41,679 --> 01:12:44,320 current fiscal year uh by negotiating 1616 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:45,600 the 10-year contract. 1617 01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:47,920 >> Right.

Who knows how how long 1942 01:25:10,239 --> 01:25:12,320 if it's five years, 10 years, maybe even 1943 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:14,560 if it's longer than that. question I 1944 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:20,159 would have is um I'll say longevity of 1945 01:25:20,159 --> 01:25:22,239 we if we proceed with option three with 1946 01:25:22,239 --> 01:25:26,639 the asphalt patches versus doing the the 1947 01:25:26,639 --> 01:25:28,639 asphalt across the whole parking lot.
