most of the rad packs have also stated that they are that well, I've heard so someone ran back state that Nitrogen is supposed to provide oversight.
1:10:30
The levels of engagement, that's a that's a even resort down to TA meetings?
1:10:36
Are you still actively engaged in some of the local TA meetings?
1:10:40
Are you attending those meetings?
1:10:41
Because a lot you'll get a lot of those meetings where you'll have a lot of these concerns are being brought up.

We do have staff that attends various resident meetings, both during the construction process and even after construction is completed.
Chris Banks
1:10:55
Okay.
1:10:57
And and and it would be good to get a little more information on how that how that done because I've seen some developments with Nitrogen just handed the keys over and ran out.
1:11:11
And we're hoping that, you know, with the Nitrogen developments out in the pipeline, I think another 60,000 units, on the pipeline to go rad.
1:11:21
That is not the case because I don't trust these developers.
1:11:25
I don't I don't trust them at all.
1:11:27
So we wanna make sure that we that nature is engaged.
1:11:32
And in that process.
1:11:33
And we you know, there's there's constant engagement on NICE's part.
