Let me go wash my hands. It's all yellow. I have two questions. I was waiting for the jacket to come. We would like to call to order the planning and infrastructure meeting to order. I know your time is valuable, so we're not going to delay it. Thank you all for coming. And at this particular time, if there are any public comments, you may come now. Anyone with public comments before we move to the agenda? Anyone with comments? Because we don't have a quorum, we won't approve the minutes. The first item is grass mowing progress. All right. Okay. So we had grass mowing progress. Good afternoon, are you? I guess I had a little issue with my laptop. So right now with the grass cutting season, we're still on a two-week rotation. And with the weather, there's a major issue with the weather. We're getting rain twice a week. I do have representation from different contractors that are in the audience that could pretty much vouch for what we're dealing with. But there's really much we can do about the weather. Once the weather clear up, we'll be back on it. During the two-week rotation, hopefully we can accommodate for the amount of things that we have missed us for. But with the mowing, it's pretty frustrating right now. As you can see, we got a huge amount of rain that we dealt with yesterday that will pull us back maybe a week or so. But we are working full-time schedules, even weekends as needed. Any more questions you got? Anyone else? Any questions on the grass more? I know we
