                                        I would also like to take a moment to recognize Connor Meeley, who was previously counseled to the committee, and wish him the best of luck in his new endeavors.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:08:59
                                        
                                        Connor, thank you for all of the work you've done for our committee and for the council.

                                        I always say that the transportation and infrastructure committee has the best team in the council, and yes, I am biased, and we wish him well.
                                    
                                            
                                            0:09:14
                                        
                                        I will now ask committee council to swear in the administration.
