Nay. The ayes have it. The docket has passed. Now, moving on to matters recently heard for possible action. Madam Clerk, would you please read docket 0775? Certainly. Docket 0775. Councilor O'Malley offered the following ordinance amending the City of Boston Code Ordinance, Chapter seven, Section seven, Dash 2.1 and seven. Dash 2.2. Building Energy Reporting and Disclosure of Virgo. Thank you. Madam Clerk recognizes the Chair of the Committee on Government Operations, Councilor Lydia Edwards. The floor is yours. Thank you very much. I think I'm going to be turning it over shortly to you. But I do want to just quickly give a quick summary of the actions we've taken so far. We had a very successful, robust hearing on this, and we had two working sessions thus far. The first working session went literally line by line to essentially pull, I think, any leftover questions or acknowledge any changes that had happened. I do want to thank Alison Brazil and of course, the chair of Environment and Open Space, Councilor O'Malley, for your incredible leadership and preparation for 21 page ordinance to come through and have. And I think one of the best conversations we've had about how we're going to essentially provide for a future for our children. The Bourdeaux legislation essentially is about building emissions reduction and assuring that as we build, we're building for an actual future we can all live in. And so I wanted to thank again and also Chief Mariama White Hammond, program manager Hannah Payne, and as I mentioned, Commissioner Alison Bridges, who were from the administration. I want to thank all the all of my colleagues who I think at one point either attended the hearing or one of the working sessions to make sure that we were steadfast in our commitment to make sure that the Met Bureau 2.0, as is called, will happen this year. So I at this point, I'm going to ask that the matter stay in committee per the request of the lead sponsor and make sure that we finish the conversations and any leftover ideas concerns and make sure that we have the consensus that we need to pass this as soon as as the lead sponsor is ready. I turn it over to you now. Not formally. Thank you, Madam Chair. Perfectly said. We'll be calling this for a vote in relatively short order, but did want to appreciate your incredible partnership on this. This is something that will be one of the most impactful things we can do as a body, and I'm really excited about it. So thank you for that talk in 0775 shall remain in the Committee on Government Operations. Now, moving on to motions, orders and resolutions. Madam Clerk, could you please read docket 0966? Certainly. Docket 0966 Council of our call for the following order for a hearing to discuss city protocols for providing public records.
