0:39:23
If counsel gives us more money, we would
0:40:42
We miss her a lot.

There are only, for example, we have contracts with, I believe, 9 of them but they are funded through this through this account.
0:39:07
So those are the only ones we have.
0:39:10
Just 9.
0:39:10
Yep.
0:39:13
I'm sorry.
0:39:15
Right.
0:39:15
They're contracted with us Mhmm.
0:39:16
Through through discretionary funding.
0:39:18
Alright.
0:39:26
That was a trick question.
0:39:27
We can give you some numbers right now if you want.
0:39:29
We have in terms of actually number of trans number of actual transactions for fiscal year 25, sorry, 24, it's 357 transactions of those registering.
0:39:41
Reregistering is actually an additional 14.
0:39:45
Total of 323.
0:39:47
Total collection of fees so far for this year is a 108,000.
0:39:51
Total accumulation over since the creation of the unit has been 671,000.
0:39:56
So it's actually increasing every year.
0:39:58
Okay.
0:39:59
So
0:40:15
Right.
0:40:15
Really quickly, we get we get ports every 2 weeks of actually this program.
0:40:19
So we had last of last week.
0:40:21
We had 6 complaints during last week.
0:40:24
We had 7 17 investigations.
0:40:26
So it's something we do monitor every 2 weeks.
0:40:28
So we're getting this solved.
Lorraine Cortes-Vasquez
0:39:08
Yeah.
0:39:09
We only have.
0:39:09
We Just 9.
0:39:11
I mean, the 300 and odd No.
0:39:13
Yeah.
0:39:13
Then
0:39:18
And model programs.
0:39:59
And the other thing wanted to that we submit a local law report to the council every year that talks not only about the 2 collections, but also the investigations.
0:40:11
So and I I will make sure that we can bring you the most common data.
0:40:30
And we thank Margaret Council member Chin for me because she was the one that created the office and then added the additional money so that we can go from one staff person.
0:40:41
To 5.
