Thank you for the work you do on that committee. Councilmember Desai, I appreciate it. And also the work of Mr. Jacobs. Anyone else? By Smirnoff's way. Two weeks ago tomorrow, we met with the AC Transit Interagency Liaison Committee for what was can only be described as a very depressing meeting. I was there. It was. Grim. What a difference five months makes. We were talking about planning for the future of transit in this meeting was all about how they're going to be making major, major cuts. Alameda will be seeing probably more than our fair share a little bit, but it's hard to argue that in the conversation we're having around equity and impact that DC Transit is not looking at this very, very carefully, thoughtfully. And you know, we could just hope that as ridership comes back that we know that the transit will. But I'm working for a transit agency. I nothing. Nothing they're doing is surprising. And we're just going to hope it's not long term. So but I just want to put that out there. They do have some map showing what they're going to do. Alameda will have decent coverage. The 51 will become the 50. The 51 A will be merged with the 51 B again, which means we're going to have worse. Yeah, I know. Not a good thing, but they got to do it. And but we're going to maintain our ten minute service there as our key trunk line will continue.
