Chair Lee announces public testimony date and administers oath

Great.

Thank you, Chair.

So just a couple housekeeping items before we start.

So because of the shortened timeline for our budget hearings, we are going to have public testimony on one day.

All day.

So please feel free to join us.

It should be fun.

We'll try to make it as lively as possible.

So Wednesday, June 10th, starting at 9.30 a.m.

Wednesday, June 10th, starting at 9.30 a.m.

If you guys know anyone in the public that would like to sign up to testify, please make sure they do so.

And with that, actually, I'll pass it off to Brian Sarfo, our amazing committee counsel, to administer the oath.

Good afternoon.

Do you affirm to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth before this committee and to respond honestly to council member questions, Commissioner Shahada?

You may begin.

I think the light, is the light on?

Does it turn red?

Thank you, Sergeant.

Thank you.
