Thank you so much, Commissioner.

Linda Lee

Before I go into my questions, just want to recognize we've been joined by Councilmember Marano on Zoom, Councilmembers Ossé, Councilmember Felder, Councilmember Jay Sanchez, and Councilmember Mealy.

Linda Lee

And thank you so much, Commissioner.

Linda Lee

We have two former nonprofit leaders up here, which really greatly appreciate the work and the portfolio that ACS has.

Linda Lee

And so I know that you are in charge of a lot, and there's a lot on your plate.

Linda Lee

And so one of the things I hate are silos in government.

Linda Lee

And so whatever we can do on the council, we've always tried to champion ways to make sure that the agencies are also talking to each other and ways that we can play a helpful role in that as well.

Linda Lee

So thank you.
