“Well, thanks for addressing my questions about goals. And because it's a five-year plan, would we expect those goals to be linear, 20% per year, or would we expect those goals to be like year three, the thing's going to be done and bam, it's going to be right there?”

“Thank you. I've got a statement and then questions for Adrian. I wanted to thank you for doing this. This is a wonderful thing. I know the building's been empty a long time. I'm glad somebody came up with something better than store and lockets. Nothing against store and lockets, but not on Lexington Avenue, please. Um, for Adrian in the back, this went to city planning. Yes. And did they vote on it? And how'd that turn out?”

“Thank you, Mr. President. 151, if you don't mind, 152 are both fund transfers. It's over the middle of the year. There's some funds left in a couple of things that would allow the sewer department to buy a dump truck. They're also getting a snow plow package on it. And altogether, it's $175,000 for a dump truck with a snow plow. It'll be used for both streets and the sewer department. And so 151 and 152 are related. And when you get done with questions, I would like to move both of those forward for vote tonight, I guess, in two separate motions.”

“Thank you, Mr. President. I believe this 153 and 154 is another pair of fund transfers to allow the purchase of PPE for the fire department. 153 is for 10,139 and 154 is for 3,900. There's some different funds involved. That's why there's two separate motions. And I would also like to move these ahead at the appropriate time.”

“This was brought up at the Board of Control meeting, and the flare mower is something that allows them to reach in and around guardrails. The current mower is 1990, maybe 1, 2, 3. So it's old, worn out, and it's time to get replaced. That was the story at Board of Control.”
