Chris Banks

Thank you for your time, Tony.

Chris Banks

I just want to do a final.

Chris Banks

Is there anybody else on Zoom or remote?

Chris Banks

Okay.

Chris Banks

If we had inadvertently missed anyone that has registered to testify today and has yet to be have been called, please use the zoom.

Chris Banks

Raise your hand function.

Chris Banks

If you are testifying remotely and you will be called in order that your hand has been raised.

Chris Banks

If you are testifying in person, please come to the dais.

Chris Banks

She was on the pre-pandemic.

Chris Banks

Yeah, Carla, you on the pre-panel.

Chris Banks

You gave testimony already.

Chris Banks

So the testimony you gave for the pre-panel counted as your testimony.

Chris Banks

So it was, because you gave testimony already.

Chris Banks

Hold on, let me just consult with the council and then, well, just give me one minute.

Chris Banks

Under the advice of the council, since you gave testimony in the pre-panel, that will stand as your testimony.

Chris Banks

Well, you can submit the written documentation.

Chris Banks

You can submit that so it can go into the record.

Chris Banks

Thank you, Carl.

Chris Banks

Do we have a testimony sheet for her?

Chris Banks

Did you sign in?

Chris Banks

Okay.

Chris Banks

Did you...

Chris Banks

No, no, I said, did you have a testimony sheet?

Chris Banks

One of these, ma'am.

Chris Banks

Did you fill one of these out?

Chris Banks

What's your name?

Chris Banks

Hines.

Chris Banks

Okay, Ms.

Chris Banks

Hines.

Chris Banks

Pleasure.

Chris Banks

Pleasure to see you, ma'am.

Chris Banks

You may begin your testimony.

Chris Banks

You may begin your testimony.

Chris Banks

Just pull the mic closer.

Chris Banks

Thank you so we can hear you clearly.
