Thank you. efforts and partnership rather than government working alone. The funding itself was always temporary but the relationships, the infrastructure, and the lessons we've built together have lasting value. As we look ahead, our responsibility is not simply replacing a funding source, it is preserving the vision that Long Beach voters supported in 2020 and ensuring future generations continue benefiting from the foundations we've built together. Measure U.S. became a catalyst for change for changing how Long Beach invests in its young people. So I just want to thank you for your time and thoughtful consideration. Erikan and I would be happy to answer any questions the committee may have. Thank you so much for that presentation. Before I go to my committee colleagues, I got a message from someone in the public that says that the presentation isn't presenting online so they can see the chamber but they can 't see the presentations.
