Can we recommend the resolution be adopted as amended? Thank you. And I did want to mention that Councilmember Mosquito had a prearranged meeting that requires a conflict at this point on an agenda. So. So what does he have there? So she doesn't need a formal excuse, but she's she had to go. Okay. So I will move to formally excuse councilmember skater from the remainder of the meetings there. Second. All those in favor of schools against mosquitoes say I. I oppose. The ayes have it. Okay, so I'll now proceed with the resolution in front of us. So, as you may recall, we did form a select committee on civic arenas and dealing with the key Arena Construction Council member, whereas in her leadership she did the lion's share of it. She was kind enough to allow me to chair one of these small, insignificant issues on tiebacks, but nonetheless, I chaired it. Thank you for that. But this resolution basically gives conceptual approval of what's called a significant structured term permit to the Seattle Arena Company to construct, maintain and operate at a permanent tension tieback required to operate a tunnel under crawl under, under an across Thomas Street. Basically, the arena company that's in charge of the construction revise its construction plans include these permanent tension tiebacks and they'll remain in Thomas Street. They're necessary for the sort of the feasibility of the construction project. They also during the meeting gave us a status report on the project and everything is going as planned and they are very pleased, as are the central staff members of ours and our department is very pleased with how that construction project is going. So basically if this resolution today is adopted, as that will continue the work going down that road and they will draft an ordinance that will grant final approval of the term permit, and we'll describe their proposed conditions of approval at that point, which shall include the annual fee and the maintenance obligations and the indemnification provisions and the insurance and the bond requirements. So again, this resolution is as necessary to allow continued work. Any questions on the resolution? Okay. Those in favor of adopting the resolution. Please vote i i those opposed vote no. The motion carries resolutions that then show sign it. Thank you very much. Please read the next agenda item.
