So the agencies are out there to do one there to catch what they can 529 00:29:38,260 --> 00:29:43,160 and we just need to keep continuing our fight to bring everyone home. I didn't find a 530 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:49,580 bring home. So we have that ceremony on Friday at 7 p.m. So anybody can attend? So 531 00:29:49,580 --> 00:29:54,560 that? Thank you. Thank you. Council President Martin. Yeah I just like to echo your 532 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:59,960 on that resolution especially since my son was on the job and I'm happy that he 533 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:26,620 If we get to come home every night, we worry about them, obviously, because it's a little crazy out there right now. As far as that 9-11 ceremony was great, I just want to point out that we have a whole generation of kids right now that we're not even born when 9-11 happens. So I think it really is important that we teach the kids what happened and how things changed. And so I'm very happy that we're doing the ceremonies that we're getting the attendance that we are. So with that, who's medical? 534 00:30:26,620 --> 00:30:34,100 Thank you. Where I have one thing that I failed to say this before and it needs to be said. 535 00:30:34,620 --> 00:30:41,800 I want to thank Rudy and Bill. Rudy brought up the fact that because of the construction 536 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:48,540 out front, it was pretty close to the 9-11 area. And he pointed out to Bill and Bill, 537 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,880 that you guys didn't outstanding job.

Also, the former, what we call of the champion of environmental 563 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:21,560 Mr. Jeff Tittle, who worked very hard to get the act past, who is actually favorably on our side by saying that the state hasn't held up with their end of the deal. 564 00:32:22,620 --> 00:32:25,520 But I would encourage everyone. It is a long article. Please read it. 565 00:32:26,100 --> 00:32:35,660 I hear so many things on social media out in the community about, you know, the misinformation and about taxes and just the Highlands Ags and Newark Watershed and what have you. 566 00:32:35,660 --> 00:32:39,360 This really does a nice job of explaining what we've done, 567 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,080 the history where we're going and what we're trying to do. 568 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,720 So I would encourage you to go on the website, click the link or my page, 569 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,460 whatever you prefer, and read the entire article. 570 00:32:49,780 --> 00:32:50,980 You don't have a way to open your website. 571 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:52,600 It is. 572 00:32:53,300 --> 00:32:56,020 All right, if that's, nobody has it.
