Right.
4:26:05
And then in terms of infrastructure dollars, like hard dollars that we're talking about as a city, have have we Is there a number attached to that?
4:26:13
Because I feel like a lot of times in these areas.
4:26:15
So the way I see it a bit is like a like a bubble.
4:26:18
Right?
4:26:18
And so I understand that you're saying it's only a little bit here and there, but if we're increasing the total size of what's happening in the bubble, it's gonna expand.
4:26:29
Right?
4:26:29
So how do we address that issue?

The way we address it is the fact that we have proposed something which is as diffuse as it is means that we will see a little bit of impact across the city geographically, but also over time.
