Thank you. Count Summary Ringa. Thank you, Mary. And I want to thank Ara for bringing this forward. It's a street that so highly traveled and greatly in need of repair. And I want to thank the public works for bringing this forward. Thank you, Councilmember Austin. I also want to thank our public works department for their diligence. This has been in the works for for now, about two and a half, three years. We're excited about a Bixby Road being repaved between Atlantic and Orange. I did have a question for a public works director in regards to the timing of this project. When do we expect to get started on this project after our vote this evening? Honorable mayor, honorable councilmembers, Honorable Austin. Based on our conversations, you indicated that there is a there's a two schools in the vicinity. So our goal is to start in July and finish before school starts in beginning of September, end of August. So we're going to do our best to start and complete this project within that time period before the school starts. Well, Mr. Moulin, I do recall that conversation, and I'm glad that we have it on record that those are two extremely busy schools, Hughes and Longfellow. What I would think a combined about 3000 students. And so it's a very heavily traveled street and so hopefully we can get that done before the school year. Thank you so much. Yes, thank you. And I will. We'll get it done. Any public comment on the item? There's been a motion, a second seeing analyst castro votes. Councilmember Richardson Andrews. Okay. It's. Motion carries 7 to 20.
