And I'm so honored to be a sponsor in support of that co naming for beach 54th street and Pat Simon way in recognition of her life and her legacy.

And, also I'd like to acknowledge that I am a co prime sponsor on intro 103 and 104.

Intro 104 in particular came about from a visit with then commissioner Laura Kavanaugh to the big house in Far Rockaway, one of my fire houses.

And we heard of concerns about their safety and getting to and from, locations when they're not brought up to speed in terms of major changes, major projects.

And so with that, I'd just like to say that I vote I on all.
