Yeah.

In CUNY's booklet about the five year capital plan, it is stated that an internal rating is being developed for all CUNY campuses to evaluate the current state of each building component on every campus.

I will note that at last year's hearing, you also discussed this internal rating, and it was my understanding that these sort of ratings would be public.
1:38:15
And, you know, with the goal being allowing professors and students to provide feedback and input on this.
1:38:24
When do you expect the rating to be finalized and made public?
Hector Batista
1:38:28
Well, the rating has been finalized, and I'm happy to report it is live in the facility's website.
1:38:35
And I will send that link to your office so you could have that information.
1:38:39
But it is something that is available.
1:38:42
It really as I stated in our in our hearing, it's a professional tool Yeah.
1:38:48
That is used by professionals to determine the lifeline of a particular system.
1:38:53
And but we heard you.
1:38:55
We and we the argument that you made that professional students could have input into that, so that's why we have made that available.
1:39:03
And and that information is gonna be updated as we update our information in house.
