Agenda Item nine Council Bill 119824 Relating to the city's response to the 2020 COVID 19 crisis and venue ordinance 126000, which adopted the 2020 budget. The committee recommends the bill pass as amended. Thank you, Madam Clerk. Jasmine Mesquita. As chair of the committee, you are recognized in order to address this item. Thank you, Madam President. Again, I'll be brief due to the time. I just want to thank our central staff and all of our council colleagues for their tremendous amount of work to make sure that the federal dollars were going appropriately to care for those in our community. We want to be good partners with the state and the feds as we try to collectively respond and provide not just good governance, but proactive governance, making sure that we're addressing the crisis that is presenting itself, helping prevent folks from falling into homelessness due to economic crisis, but also making sure that people have the appropriate housing and public health services. I appreciate our congressional delegation for all of their advocacy to make federal dollars available. Much, much more is needed. That is part of the reason that we stepped up at the city level and are trying to offer relief for COVID, but appreciate the dollars that have been made available, trying to stretch those as far as possible. And our colleagues today with your amendments. This these dollars will make a tremendous impact. So thank you. Thank you. Councilmember Mosqueda, are there any other comments on the bill? Seeing and hearing none that will the clerk please call the roll on a passage of the Peterson? I saw. What? Yes. Strauss. Yes. Herbal. Yes. Lewis. Yes. Morales. Yes. Macheda. Yes. President Gonzalez.

Will the clerk please read agenda item ten into the record?
