Thank you, Madam President. This is the energize Denver kind of 2.0, Bill. And I just wanted to call it out to say huge thank you to all the task force members who took time out of their lives to serve on the committee that worked on this to our amazing Cassar staff, to Katrina madigan, who just does an incredible job with this over there. I also just want to call out Councilmember Kenney for sitting on and really pushing for the first version, energize Denver 1.0. That really laid the groundwork to get where we're getting tonight with this one. The task force worked really hard to come together and to reach consensus across the board. And this was not easy. There were hard choices and there were the really tough decisions that needed to be made. Bill 1310 is a big deal. These changes pave the way for more efficient buildings and huge reductions in emissions from those buildings. We are in the midst of a climate crisis and we can only solve it with bold policies like this one. And when everyone gets a seat at the table and agrees to work together to find implementable ways for us to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions. 1310 Highlights who we are here in Denver when we all come together, when we all work together and work, when we're committed to finding solutions together. So this is another just calling it out for comments because I'm really excited about it. So lots of exciting things on the agenda today that are exciting because we're we're keeping them on consent and we're all voting unanimously for them. So I'm so proud of our community for coming together and putting these recommendations forward to our amazing staff, for turning those recommendations into something that we can take action on. Because the time for action on climate change is now, and we're certainly not done yet. But this is a huge step that we're taking tonight. So thank you to all the individuals who stepped up to make this happen. And I'm very excited for it to pass this evening. Thank you, Madam President. All right. Thank you, Councilmember Clark.
