I'll post. We guys have it. Director Delbat, do you have any items we'd like to review?
Yeah. Thank you, chairwoman.
I just have, two for three.
Just wanted to ask. I don't see for item one, I don't think planning is here. Yeah. Right there. But this is a $23,000,000, amount for sidewalks, room, drainage.
Being that I mean, planning is not here. Maybe I can ask DPW. Is there any coordination that goes on with planning your department on this? Yes.
guys have anything in, like, in planning and the methodology on where this money is invested? Is it, like, netted to your CIT work? Any of that? Because, I mean
There's a yeah. There's, like, a whole list of considerations that go into place, obviously, the higher pedestrian areas.
But these are the safe streets, Morocco. This is quite a safe
So DPW doesn't touch things. They're in the safe streets like South Main Street
Or, South Water or the only those stuff that like, they map out this first because that's federal money, and then they fold in according to Tricia's priorities after that.
Got you. Being that it's $23,000,000, is this not going to finance or anything? Doesn't look like it's not being referred. Maybe I can touch base with the right demo again at least. It would be nice to see the presentation on this and, like, the scope of work.
I feel like with the mild history conversations recently, just work around the city and equity you know, equitable distribution of funds, the council, you know, would like a presentation on that. Okay. And then this the second one, this is with Jocelyn. And I apologize because it was just an OSC meeting I missed for this, but there is a scope of work, under a change order for some asbestos abatement, I believe it was, being that there's a school there as well. It's an occupied remediation.
