“Okay, thank you all very much. We're now moving on to item 16. And let me, before we do that, let me give a little bit of a preview of the remainder of the day. Our hope was to be breaking for lunch around noon at the conclusion of this item. And then after that, we will... We hope to get through the majority of this meeting or the remainder of this meeting by around five o'clock, 5.15, and then we'll go to closed session. So that's, I'll keep everyone posted as the day goes on, but we're looking to be pretty well on track this day. Okay, so we now move on to item 16. Unless has received the…”

I mean, it's, I think, something we've known intuitively for a long time, and certainly seems pretty obvious, kind of... you know, off the top of your head. But to put some hard numbers on this, I think really illustrates how detrimental the sewage crisis is for our region economically. And, you know, from my perspective, the public health impacts and…”

“Okay, thank you very much. Do we need a motion or is this just a receiving file? Receiving file, okay. I just again want to reiterate how much of a call to action this report is. I don't think it tells us anything. We don't know intuitively, but it's helpful to put hard numbers on something when you're looking at a crisis at this magnitude and this scale. I think that there are some opportunities that we have to invest in a solution to fix this Tijuana sewage crisis permanently. I think we should seize those opportunities and to me this is Just one more piece of evidence of how important it…”
