Thank you. And I see Chair Avens in the queue, so she has not had an opportunity to speak, so I'll allow her to speak first. Chief Collins, I'm sorry.
Thank you. And so on that note, Chief Collins, I would just like to say that we would also like an update on the mental health facility, number one. And then also, Chief Alexander, I'm going to send you a list of questions, and I'm going to copy all of my colleagues so that you can address, because we're looking at the expense side, but the revenue side has not even addressed about what we're getting per federal inmate, et cetera, prisoner, et cetera. And so I have a list of questions. If you could get that back to us prior to Monday's meeting, like Friday, that would be very helpful because…
Thank you. Commissioner Richardson, this is your second time in the queue.
Thank you. And so I'm going to go to Commissioner Brooks. This is her first time speaking.
Thank you. Chief Collins, do you have a comment? And I have a question before you make that comment, okay? So along the lines of Commissioner Brooks, is there an opportunity for us, since there's a one-year renewal at that point in time, or prior to that point in time, Can we, number one, can we either delete, just have one-year renewal, or can we reassess at that time and maybe put it back out for bid?

Thank you. And so, Chief Alexander, I would just like to request on record that after, if it's voted out, this contract for a year, if you could give us a quarterly report on your findings, and therefore we won't be in a situation like we are today, if this body decides to go and solicit other vendors, if you could just give us a quarterly report on your findings, that would be much appreciated to all the commissioners, not just the mayor. I appreciate that.
Yes, ma'am. Thank you. I'm going on to the commissioners. This is your second time as well. Commissioner Hewitt-Garcia, you have the floor.
Thank you Thank you and Commissioner Mills. It's your second time as well. I
Thank you so much. Okay, let's take this item down for vote. Okay, we have a tally, please.
Thank you. This item goes down to a fair recommendation. Thank you all. Thank you, Commissioners. Thank you. And I see no add-ons, so this concludes committee number four.
Thank you, Madam Chair. And on the topic of the rules, And I just want to make sure that the rules have been updated. So, Parliamentarian, for the orientation on Saturday, has anybody gone through to make sure that they've been updated? To show everything that we have changed through the last term or last...
Okay, not just that particular one, but there are other rules that we passed.
Okay, so I want to make sure, because I've got several I could not find, to make sure that they're in the rules so that when everybody gets it on Saturday, they'll be up to date. For example, the zip code one, the scorecards one, and then there's some others that I was looking for and I did not see them. Yes. There's several. I'll send them to you.
