And we're going to give that second to Councilmember Herndon. Comments and questions or questions by members of Council on Council Resolution 71. Council Member State Abarca. Thank you. I'd just like to go on record voting no for this. This this for the downtown Denver Partnership's contract to operate the Biergarten and the skating rink downtown. It's one that I believe we should be having deeper discussion about. I voted on it, voted no. On it in. The past, and just wanted to make sure that. I still let you guys know I still have big issues with this contract and do not think that we should be approving it. Thank you. Councilmember CdeBaca. Councilmember Torres. Oh, no major comments. Just wanted it pulled out from the prayer block so that I could vote in favor of it. All right. Thank you, Councilmember Torres. Councilmember Hines. I thank you, council president. I will be voting in favor of the of the resolution. I do have concerns about the the bike lane and sidewalk immediately adjacent to Skyline Park. That is constantly and consistently obstructed with lots of vehicles. Some vehicles of vendors are parked in the bike lane. Sometimes they're city city vehicles, sometimes they're business improvement district vehicles. I don't believe that we should allow some areas to be blocked, some right of ways to be blocked and others not. And and I think we should be consistent with ensuring that access around Skyline Park for pedestrians and cyclists are preserved. Thank you. Thank you, Councilmember Hines, and seen no one else in the queue. Madam Secretary, roll call on Council Resolution 20 2-0071, please. Ibaka? No, Clark. I. Flynn, I. Herndon. I. Hines I. Kashmere. I.
