Thank you, Dr. Earle and staff for your work on that. I know it's been a real, like, long process. Okay, this is going to be brief. I know the chief called me on Friday. I got to give a little bit of a backstory on this. Over the past, oh, I would say 15 years, the Broward League of Cities and the Broward City Managers Association and the chiefs, you know, we've always, um, Looked and worked on the SRO issue. About two years ago, they were going to actually remove the SROs again from the school and try to create their own countywide police force. We went to the school board, it was nixed, and we thought it was done. On March 26th, I attended and I have been attending the... forums that they've had on the schools because they've been realigning schools and doing you know closures of schools we work collaboratively this fall they're going to be changing the model at our high school during that presentation the president of BCMA discussed the SRO issue. It went around the table. Members like myself that have been there for a while, like Mike Ryan, myself, and a few others that have been through this dialogue and went through it before, we all went, what are you talking about? You know, we're back at this. Apparently, four years ago, every year they negotiated the contract, they went back to this negotiation table to over salaries and pay for the SROs. We were very vocal at that meeting, which was a closed meeting, no press involved, and spoke up and said this is a symbiotic, cri …
