33:34 – 33:54•Sukh Kaur

So that being said, I want to thank DSD for their work on this. They went out and block walked and talked to folks multiple times. I want to thank Cameron on my team who has worked really hard and so they've done a really great job on making sure that we were able to get to and knock on doors at least two to three times throughout this entire process. With that, I motion to approve as amended.
