“I have just two. One, you mentioned earlier, early in the presentation, MSU land is blocking us access to Red Cedar. There's no conversation there. Do we need it?”
“Okay. And then the, the 300 million, is that any part of the bonding discussion that we talked about earlier?”
“So I would say two things on this. One is if there are components that we need to be thoughtful about on the bonding conversation for this fall, then bringing that forward would be helpful to peel those off and understand. SRF, there's going to be a new governor. and which always uh in new legislature but always an opportunity to change how some of these programs function i'm looking because you've got inside info too but at any rate that that may be something if there's provisions that we want to think about as a community i'm sure there would be other communities that would be interested in…”
“Yeah, no, all of the people, our current legislators, like everyone.”
“It may be a risk communities to qualify for it.”
“I mean, listen, we've had community members here with us all this time this evening. I mean, this is top of mind. We know, I know you guys are on the front lines of picking up those calls to be responsive. So it's like we need to think holistically of the financing side and how do we... move to action as quickly to build. Listen, I don't want to be a Debbie Downer like I was earlier. I hate to do that. But I mean, listen, climate change is real. I'll leave it there.”
