“Now my understanding is like that three-year FDOT grant is expired. What happened was we got the first year and then we forgot to reapply for the second-year grant. Is that accurate? And then in the third year we applied and we got it.”

“I was saying like the second year I believe we didn't apply.”

“Okay, all right. And then, yeah, I circled the 600,000 FDOT grant. I think it's going to end. So that means that, you know, that means now the matching has ended. We have to inject another 600 to keep the freebie. Okay. Yeah, I'm a little confused about the CITT. I always had it that we get from the CITT like a lot more than that.”

“Thank you. I have a question about the Enterprise Fund 420, 430, and 460, which is a fire flow. So you've got adopted from 2026, 7.1, but then I think you proposed this because of the grants that we received. I'm looking at page 110, by the way.”

“No, I love the 25. I'm just giving you a thumbs up on that one. I really noticed the difference that you've been making in not just the utilities, but also public works. I think per our charter, these two departments were actually one. It's called public service. And I don't know if the manager would consider just combining these two departments so that we could have... He's shaking his head.”

“Well, I mean, and so, like, if we do do one of those, you know, those studies for the compensation, I would love to see, I would hate to lose him to a neighboring water department somewhere else, and I really like to keep Hamid here and make NMB Water World.”
