I do want to say one thing before we adjourn and I should have said this earlier whenever we took second reading on the budget, but I greatly appreciate and thank staff for the work that they do and all of our employees that they do on a day in day out basis to keep our costs as low as possible to generate the revenues that it takes to run this operation. for the hard work that y'all put into budgetary planning and everything that it takes to bake the pie that we all enjoy here. We've done an incredible job of growing our revenue and tax bases, but doing it in a way where we've remained affordable. for our citizens and to make sure that we continue to provide great value to our citizens. And I'm incredibly thankful for, I know that it's not easy, I know it takes a lot of work, and I'm incredibly thankful for it, so appreciate y'all. At this time, we welcome a motion to adjourn. Is there a second? Any discussion? Hearing none, if you're in favor, please raise your hand. Council Member Mattern. We are unanimously adjourned. Thank you all.
