It'd be nice to to have that information for the the districts just so that we can, you know, be aware, especially if particularly where there's ZIP codes where this is a, you know, very high volume of activity.
1:35:37
I know that, I guess I don't have any other question other than, one, that would be really helpful to get that data distributed more with the, elected officials in in the city.
1:35:47
But I have a community board that has had the 1st cease and desist.
1:35:51
I think Brooklyn Brooklyn CB 5 had it.
1:35:54
And, you know, it exists on paper, but without money backing an outreach campaign, an ongoing outreach campaign, it's it's effectively useless.
1:36:04
No one knows about it.
1:36:05
Very few people do it.
1:36:08
It's the onus is on, you know, interested parties to constantly do that outreach and education.
1:36:13
So it does need an ongoing commitment to do education and awareness.
