“Thank you. I get to start. I mean, Rick, you know, I think the world of you. I think the world of your department. I think that was the longest video that we've ever seen. And it's just because, wow, you know, you think Parks and Rec and you think amazing parks. But just everything that you do from the special events, Play for All, obviously Old Settlers Park. I was out there today. Kudos to y'all. I was out at the Flog Plaza and just even taking that on when a couple of us came to y'all several years ago and said, hey, let's do something for the veterans. And what I love about you, Rick, is…”

“Yeah, just thank you for the presentation. I was surprised to see how many existing trails we already have in our community. Good problems to have. I think our residents probably need a regular, I know I need a regular reminder of what we already have here to connect to the future possibilities.

“I would just say, too, These decisions are hard, right? And they don't just come about in a month or two months or three months. I think something else that you would learn is how we strategically plan, how we begin that in December. And here we are almost to October. It's taken that long of a time. But that is something else that you would learn is how that process goes, about how the staff goes about fulfilling the direction that we have for the city and how they go about, I think Kevin said it, like we started the actual budgeting process in July. So it does take a long time, but to the…”

I don't see Rick anymore, but I will say I did visit Flag Plaza at Yonder's Point today, so I'd recommend anybody... that has time in the next day or so while they're still there to go see the flags that have been put up and remember 9-11 and the 25th anniversary is tomorrow.

“Thanks, Sandra, for that. And you've got two new people, relatively new people in charge. I think y'all are doing a fabulous job. It's great to see you both here. I do have two questions.
