Do Link NYC kiosks have video call capability?
Robert Barbera
0:15:02
There are video relay services, at the Link NYC kiosks.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
0:15:10
Do you know the software that's used for video or video relay?
Robert Barbera
0:15:16
I would have to take that back to franchise and get back to you.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
0:15:23
Yeah.
0:15:25
I do think those questions were shared in advance, though.
0:15:28
But you don't have the answers with you about the software that's used.
0:15:33
Correct?
Robert Barbera
0:15:34
I wouldn't wanna provide incorrect information.
0:15:36
I would need to check with franchise.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
0:15:38
Okay.
0:15:39
And the same for what software do you use to display ads?
0:15:45
Okay.
0:15:45
What about the operating system used by Lincoln YC?
Robert Barbera
0:15:50
I'll check with franchise and we will circle back with the committee.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
0:15:58
Okay.
0:15:58
The last question, if you can take back.
0:16:01
Link NYC kiosks display advertisements as static images on the screen.
0:16:02
Could they display moving Could you would you be able to speak to the compliance of, Citybridge with OTI in respect to the National Historic Preservation Act and the National Environmental Policy Act?
Robert Barbera
0:16:34
I would not.
0:16:35
I would have to engage franchise and then get back to the committee.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
0:16:42
Okay.
0:16:44
For so for intro 138, you don't feel capable of answering the questions about the legislation since franchise isn't here?
Robert Barbera
0:16:55
Since Link NYC is, outside the scope of my normal responsibilities, I wouldn't feel comfortable answering.
