So we're definitely, we're looking at that right now.
1:32:33
I would say we're looking at whether cleaning or beautifying the station can be done in a more expedited manner through kind of existing programs and resources.
1:32:46
And then that would be separate from more like capital related improvements that may be a little more staggered.
1:32:58
But we're currently working on that with both MTA and DOT.
Chi A. Ossé
1:33:03
Would it be possible for me to ask and I know that there's different phases to when potential improvements would be made.
1:33:09
Would it be possible for me to ask that maybe in two weeks I could get a breakdown of the feasibility of these improvements and when they would potentially take place?
Alex Sommer
1:33:19
Yeah, we'll get back to you on that.
1:33:21
Like I said, we're actively discussing this so we'll get back to you.
Chi A. Ossé
1:33:25
Get back to me on if you can get it to me in two weeks or get back to me
Alex Sommer
1:33:28
Yeah, exactly.
1:33:29
We'll see if we can get it to you in two weeks.
1:33:31
Sorry I'm being awfully here.
Chi A. Ossé
1:33:33
So when can you back to me on when you can get it to me in two Because
Alex Sommer
1:33:39
it's with MTA, our partners at MTA.
1:33:41
We just want to make sure they can give us a timeline on what the cost estimates and everything are.
1:33:45
So that's why.
Chi A. Ossé
1:33:47
Okay.
1:33:48
So do you approximately know when you can get an answer to me?
Alex Sommer
1:33:52
Reach out to MTA right after this session and try and get answers ASAP.
Chi A. Ossé
1:33:56
Okay.
