Thank you.
2:42:06
And I also wanna mention that, 2 things.
2:42:09
1 is hydroponic planning.
2:42:12
I put a lot of funding into the schools in my district for that and I know a lot of other council members do as well.
2:42:17
And that's very important and it teaches kids to grow their food and appreciate it and everything else.
2:42:24
And a lot of the food that they actually grow at least in my district they give to food banks, so I'm really appreciative of that.
2:42:30
And also, I wanted to mention that I used to think yogurt was healthy too until I started looking at the label.
2:42:35
And so, I'm very careful about that now.
2:42:37
So, but thank you all everybody for your testimony.
