Simcha Felder

Thank you.

Simcha Felder

It's going to be quick.

Simcha Felder

So I just, I don't have a question for you here, but I wanted to second Council Member Brewer's statement about sending you emails and getting responses.

Simcha Felder

So any questions that I have, that's wonderful.

Simcha Felder

And I just wanted to say that the last time that I can remember that there was any...

Simcha Felder

Form of communication.

Simcha Felder

It doesn't mean that we get what we want all the time, but that somebody's going to answer, even if somebody says no.

Simcha Felder

That's also appreciated.

Simcha Felder

The last time that I can remember was during the Bloomberg administration.

Simcha Felder

And that was the story.

Simcha Felder

I mean, we just couldn't get an answer.

Simcha Felder

So I'm delighted and really appreciate it very, very much.

Simcha Felder

And, I mean, we shouldn't have to appreciate getting an answer, but it's really a wonderful change, and I look forward to continue getting an answer.

Simcha Felder

Yeah.

Simcha Felder

Thank you.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

And we thank you for your partnership as well.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Also, I just want to make sure I recognize on the record Councilmember Joseph.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

I called on her, but I didn't recognize her.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

My apologies.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

A little backwards today.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Okay.
