The committee recommends the bill pass. Thank you, Councilmember Bagshaw. Thank you. As you all know, the landmarks preservation part of Department of Neighborhoods is now in my committee. And we had the first opportunity this last week to talk with two people who are going to be seeing their properties landmarked. And the first one is the Crescent Hamm building. Specifically, what is the controls that will be imposed to the exterior of the building? The building was built in 1926 and West Seattle. It houses currently easy street records. And one thing that I want to commend Council President Harrell for in my committee is to ask the people who were at the table, how did the process go? And I want to acknowledge that for the owners of the building and ham, it didn't go particularly well. They felt that they were attacked by the community. And I will be following up to talk with our Department of Neighborhoods about what we can do to make that an improved process. But the committee in this case recommended passing the ordinance, and we will put that in front of you now. Thank you very much. Any further comments or questions? Yes. Yes. Just cancer. And herbal. So I just like to speak to this. This is a preservation project that I was involved in last year, both speaking before the the committee, as well as speaking in favor of it when it was discussed previously in Council Member Burgess. This committee, this is the second recent historic preservation ordinance before the Council for specifically the West Seattle Junction. Back in December, the Council approved similar legislation for the Campbell building, which is the home of Cupcake Royale across the street. The origins of these two nominations were were very unique from the process. I think that normally precedes these nominations, and it was a result of community efforts. The Southwest Seattle Historic Society Group led a collaborative effort, including the Southwest District Council, the West Seattle Junction Association and the Junction Neighborhood Association, as well as Arts West. They produced a report that was presented in my committee in early 2016 called What Makes the West Seattle Junction Special. It included a property by property analysis and recommendations for specific properties for landmark status and just want to give a shout out to the folks who are involved with that. Clay Eales. Chaz Redman. Deb Barker. Susan Melrose. All of their work is really important to preserve the link to Seattle's history, specifically West Seattle's history. Mike Doocy of WG Clark Construction and Jack Corbo of the Building Ownership Group for the Campbell Building also appeared back for the committee vote back in November. Thank you. Thank you. Any other further comments in that? Please call the rule on the passage of the bill. Macheda O'Brien. SA1 Peck. John Gonzalez. Herbold. II Johnson Suarez. President Harrell on Twitter. Hi.
