Now we're going to come to the tough questions.
2:13:19
What do you need from us as far as our budgetary concerns?

Think in terms of the budget, it really is always a back and forth with us, the council, with the Office of Management and Budget.
2:13:35
I think it's a recognition that we do look to have, particularly with regard to overtime, if we had a little more clarity at the beginning of the fiscal year of what that was going to look like, it would be really helpful to us moving forward.
2:13:50
We do have these new measures in place and we're seeing the results of that and so to be able to really do that specific to a more realistic budget at the beginning of the year would be very helpful.
2:14:00
And of course there are the one year at a time funding of other items as I discussed earlier.
2:14:06
It's helpful to also recognize those in the baseline of the budget if possible.
