All in favor. Say I only opposed. Those are approved. We have two important remaining items and I want to take the temperature of the room. Given the hour. We had a lot of public comment today, 45 minutes of public comment so that in a little bit extra. One is the annual for culture report. And Deborah, you're here to give that and I know raring to go. And then that's item 39. Item 40 is a briefing on for culture plans for 2019. And that is would be Brian's deal. These this I imagine is a half hour between the two of them at least. And I want to be respectful of the importance of the items. And I wonder if my colleagues would like to have those heard and if it would be okay for culture at a later meeting this fall so they can get their due. Is there is there any time sensitivity? I'm seeing that that I'm seeing that that might work for folks. Yes. Okay. And I'm getting a thumbs up there. My colleagues. Are people okay with that? We'll get to it. We will definitely get to it. Why don't we do that? Because I think they're very important. As you can see, there's a lot of interest. I think we've made a great lot of progress today, and let's set those for as soon as we can in maybe the second meeting in September, which would be the second or the maybe the one with our second meeting in September, me, Mary, but the 19th, if that works for folks, if not, we'll do it in our in October. But we'll definitely get it get it on this fall's calendar and maybe we'll do something fun. Maybe we'll come over to Fort Culture and have a joint meeting or something with you there. And you have a little experiential briefing. Doesn't always have to be here. All right. Thank you for your support and willingness to be flexible on that. And I know he wants to go celebrate. Y'all all want to go celebrate with them as he's almost there. Is there anything further to come before the committee today? No. Mary. Oh, yes. Would you come forward? And this is Deborah to our scheme was previously. Risky for the moment. Acting Director for culture. I just want to offer our thanks to Mary, who has done a phenomenal job and to all of your staff and to you for paying the attention to for culture that you have over the last several months, but also for your brilliant staff for preparing all of the really complex issues dealing with building for culture, the task force on all of the other issues in front of them. So just a our our thanks. There are that is very much appreciated and we are very fond of our staff and admire and respect their hard work. Mary Chief often among them, although they're all great. And Mary, on this item, as colleagues know, we had to walk these items on Monday, given the timing of their delivery for the exact she worked very hard to get them prepared, make sure they were accurate, fixed, where necessary. A staff report completed all just in a couple of days while solving a very difficult political challenge. With. Grace and aplomb. So we appreciate and second, your appreciation of Mary and our team. So thanks for that, Deborah. All right. With that. Thank you. We're adjourned.
