If you guys can't make it, I think even with adult out adult supervision, I think I can recognize that. And we know you can. So, I mean, like, that sounds a little stressful, but do what you need to do.
Yeah, yeah. So, anyway, but I'm leaving at 10, and I will be color peeping on the way up there unless it's cloudy.
I'm so glad you were on that. I had it on my list and I forgot. I listened all last Friday. I, for the whole entire thing, don't have any heartburn over what they're proposing. Okay. And so you can vote yes for, I am making sure I get this right. Taxation is legislative reform for county impacts of course we want that strengthening county revenue revenue I think that one may not I mean anything to give counties revenue tools that are permissive like like that that like if we want to vote on an excise tax on X we should be able to do that if it goes to voters so I am a yes on so taxation is…
And then we had the agriculture, the reveg for division three. That's just modeling after what we did for division two last year. Transportation airport. I think I saw something on that, that you're vetting that airport one.
I got a little lost on the HUTF distribution one. It's not that I'm opposed. I'm like, okay, I need to learn more about this. But it's your vote anyway.
I actually agree. Looking at those privacy bills, it's all consuming. You know, we need like one staff person for that and data centers and, you know, CCAT ran into the same thing. Like, how do we all of a sudden become experts on, you know, flop cameras and privacy? I mean, not that they're, I mean, they're really important issues, but I think that's a really good concern.
Right. Very good. I like that. And then also on that. So they're also doing the principles and we went through those. It was painstaking. I got a couple of cups of coffee as we went through it, but all the policy statements and I'm good with the ones for my committees.
I am, yes. And that's why I, and I can talk about it in the budget meetings. When I really look back through everything they have gotten done in past years and thought about some of the votes where we've tried to get really good things through CCI, Yeah, I am. And if also I think it's more fair to all the other CCAT counties, if we're going to pull out that we don't we do it like earlier in the spring, because it'll it'll take that those costs then have to go to the other counties. But more importantly, I just I can't I, I can't. I can't count the number of times I vote at CCI. God bless…
Yeah, we are though. I mean, just to clarify for CCAT, we absolutely do have a Zoom link. I think we can vote. They always do that vote. It's not the same kind of voting and it's verbal. And so I think it gets lost.
Yeah, they weren't tracking on it closely. They weren't.
And I think giving them that feedback, like you said, like we know where technology friendly places are. And also that's why CCI always has their conference in Denver or on I-70.
Is it's four and a half hours for us to get there. I'm like, I'm not going to go to Steamboat and sit there for a day and a half.
Yeah. So I think any feedback you have, I mean, but I just think it's like, let's have more time to pull out. And then I really want them to share with you what, what the role of CCAT is, you know, like position wise in the whole policy realm. And if if our governor next governor is phil weiser Leslie dell kemper the lieutenant governor is a giant fan of CCAT and has been there she was at the retreat so I think that's good all right staff good good okay all right that was quite meaty yes it was all right I will call this BDT adjourned thank you everyone thank you thank you
