Item 15. Item 15 Report from Public Works, Parks and Recreation and Marine. Recommendation to adopt resolution approving the middle of a grant application council recycle for the East 55th Way Land Closure Project and to apply for the grant to install a final landfill cover system that includes a landfill, gas collection and control system. District eight. Thank you, city manager. A quick report from armel and director of Public Works. Fabulous. Thank you. Honorable Vice Mayor Low Anton and council members. I don't have a PowerPoint and it's going to take 30 seconds. Basically, we're asking your approval to submit an application to Cal Recycle, to apply for funding to be able to clean this site. It's it's a great opportunity for the city to bring in half a million dollars or so if we're successful and make this project even more successful. Thank you. There's been a motion by Councilman Austin and a second by Councilmember Richardson. Councilmember Austin. Thank you, Vice Mayor and Mr. Malloy. And I will let you know that I fully support all your efforts to get this grant, and I would encourage my fellow council members to vote in support of this item. This will be a giant leap forward for us to have the opportunity to complete phase two of the Pops Davenport Park. Right now, phase one is kind of recessed off of the streets. And if you drive down Paramount Boulevard, you know most people miss it and don't know that there's a treasure there. We are really motivated and excited to to move forward to get phase two planned. And this this grant will be instrumental in helping us do that. And will I mean, it's an extra half a million dollars that we didn't see a year ago that will, like I said, be resourceful for us to want to move the process forward. And so I would ask for your full support and I think staff for identifying the grant. Thank you. Thank you, Councilman Austin. Is there any member of the public that wished to address the Council on item 15 seeing none members, please cast your vote. Motion carries eight zero.
