I think you should do that.
1:47:59
She would appreciate that.
1:48:00
I have a few questions.
1:48:01
First of all, just so you know, we have your mobile unit at our district office at 87th Street in Columbus tomorrow at 12 noon, and we appreciate that.

2nd, we just wrote a letter to all the veterinary services on the Upper West side stating because this is the barrier.
1:48:17
Can you lower the cost?
1:48:18
This is even just trying to get the private sector to be supportive.
1:48:22
Anybody who wants our letter, we can send it to you.
1:48:24
But so many people have called about that issue.
1:48:28
So let's see if any of them are able to do that.
1:48:31
3rd, we have a meeting in November because every week I'm sorry.
1:48:36
Every month, we have housing, lawyers, and this is gonna be in pets housing and pets, which is a huge issue for our city.
1:48:45
What we're hearing today, though, is just I think a lot of these numbers, and that's what the what the cost is.
