This is what is being presented what is in your folder. But we won't read that entire thing and you'll end up signing it later. But this is just the assessments for each of the town and everything. But the vote is as it's presented and it wasn't in the packet. So, this is what's being presented. So, that's what that packet is. When we get to those agenda items, um I'm in the wrong districts.
