If
we
just
do
a
moment
of
silence,
there's
one
is
for
jim
cotter
who's,
a
member
of
the
community
who
passed
away
suddenly
and
the
other
one
is
for
the
people
of
ukraine.
Just
let's
take
a
minute
of
silence
moment.
Oh
my
god,
he
was
like
I'm
wearing
the
closest
thing
I
can
to
yellow
and
blue.
Oh
my
god,.
B
B
D
D
B
A
C
E
Good
evening,
everyone
so
the
applications
for
our
community
investment
program
funding.
You
guys
had
earmarked
in
the
budget
this
year
for
use
by
the
community
by
by
application,
came
back.
We
had
eight
total,
actually,
four,
five,
six,
seven,
eight
nine
ten
total
applications
received.
I
did
review
all
of
them.
They
were
all
complete.
E
E
G
E
E
A
And
we've
put
this
on
the
agenda
for
next
week's
workshop
meeting
and
what
this
was
is
just
a
beginning,
a
beginning
of
of
here's.
Here's
what
we
think
we
could
do
you
take
it
from
there.
So
it
gives
you
the
week
to
kind
of
read
through
them,
come
back
to
workshop
and
then
re-rank
them
or
or
go
with.
The
recommendation
got.
I
H
E
E
Has
to
start
from
scratch,
so
there's
a
few
community
members
that
are
sort
of
willing
to
sort
of
hit
the
restart
button.
They're,
currently
proposing
only
flag
football,
which
I
believe
is
is
coed,
and
you
know
they
don't
have
plans
for
for
contact
football
anytime
soon,
because
they
want
to
start
rebuilding
the
program.
So
they
would
start
they're
starting
this
this
spring
with
a
flag
league
and-
and
this
would
allow
them
to
you-
know-
sort
of
rebuy.
Some
supplies
they're
still
going
to
use
the.
E
H
E
I
A
The
other
way
we
could
do
it
is
some
of
it
is
equipment
that
would
go
into
the
field
house.
So
we
could
just
do
an
agreement
to
buy
the
equipment
for
the
field
house
and
which
we
own,
and
then
we
would
just
have
a
contract
that
says
at
the
end
of
whatever
term
they
use
that
field
house.
That
equipment
is
the
city's,
so
we
could
work
around
that.
I
E
L
C
E
It
in
the
spring,
meaning
the
plumbing
and
stuff
like
that
there's
they
have
actually
been
a
great
great
in
the
last
few
years,
they've
paid
for
maintenance
to
the
of
the
whole
facility
over
there.
They
had
an
eagle
scout
project
last
year
that
painted
all
the
dugouts
they
they
paid
to
have
the
the
field
house
painted
two
years
prior
to
that.
So
essentially,
our
contribution
is,
is
maintenance
of
the
park.
I
H
I
I
K
A
No,
I
the
recommendation,
was
you'll,
see
the
request
in
the
overview,
the
spreadsheet,
what
they
requested
and
then
what
mark
was
recommending
the
level
of
funding.
So
it's
it's
different
levels
for
the
different
programs
like
with
the
football
they
wanted,
6
000
right.
We
wanted
to
help
them
get
back
on
their
feet
because
it
it
was
a
great
program
years
ago
and
it
kind
of
atrophied
and
and
but
we
didn't
give
them
everything
they
wanted.
Just
2
500.
A
E
Yeah
there's
there's
10
applicants.
You
know
that
requested
what
they
requested.
You
know
I
just
you
know
thought
I
would
give
you
a
recommendation,
so
we
didn't
start
at
scratch.
I
mean
you
have
10
10
applicants
to
select
from
so.
However,
you
wanted
to
divvy
it
up.
I
think,
is
your
decision.
I
just
figured.
I
would
at
least
give
you
a
you
know
in
looking
at
it.
What
I
thought
would
be
a
good
funding
level.
K
E
A
The
education
one
was
really
hands-on
and
kind
of
cool
and
that
that
also
got
history.
So
we
were
like
trying
to
get
one
from
each
that's
great
huge
thing
and,
and
these
were
great
applications
I
mean
you
got
that
actually
might
be
a
nice
basis
for
your
participatory
budgeting,
because
you're
starting
to
think
about
that's
what
I
was
thinking
and
what
could
you
do
with
the
rest
of
your
money?.
H
With
regards
to
the
the
four
that
you've
selected
were
you're
recommending
a
smaller
budget
than
they
applied
for,
have
you
spoken
to
the
applicants
whether
they
could
use
smaller
amounts
of
money?
I
mean
some
of
them,
it's
obvious
because
there's
line
item
and
you
can
see
you
know
what
they
could
probably
do
with
the
money,
but
have
any
of
them
said:
does
it
work
for
them.
E
E
H
E
E
A
A
E
This
is
our
first
pass
at
this
you
know
last
year
was
was
some
funding
that
we
found
an
application
for
and
and
based
on
the
budget
budget
meetings
this
last
year
you
know
we
had
to
come
up
with
a
criteria
and
a
little
rfp,
and-
and
you
know
so-
I
as
I
talked
to
everyone-
you
know
if
you
guys
continue.
You
know
this.
This
practice
we've
at
least
got
a
baseline,
a
starting
point.
You
know
better
for
next
year
so,
but
I
think
it
was
reasonably
smooth.
E
E
K
C
B
E
B
Yep-
and
you
know,
I
think,
having
criteria
and
scoring
in
ways
that
kind
of
make
it
more
objective,
it
doesn't
mean
you
may
not.
You
know,
have
someone
you
want
to
help
along
the
way,
that's
important
and
worth
doing,
but
it
also
just
is
kind
of
moves
it
from
the
council
and
kind
of
makes
the
process
that's
kind
of
independent.

Dollar:
question:
veggies
fruits,
grains
meat,
dairy
bat,
eggshells
nuts
shells
and
bones
coffee
filters.
Tea
bags,
parchment
paper,
uncoated
paper
plates,
even
pizza
boxes,
paper,
towels,
napkins,
toilet
paper
rolls
and
brown
paper
shopping
bags,
health
plants
and
cut
flowers
with
no
potting
soil,
though
certified
compostable
products
look
for
a
logo
before
throwing
remove
all
stickers
from
food
scraps,
they
cannot
be
composted
and
these
things
can
never
go
into
the
compost.
Bin,
no
plastic,
please
no
trash
your
doggy
poop
goes
into
regular
garbage.
N
N
One
gallon
of
packed
food
scraps
weighs
around
three
pounds
in
the
surveys.
We
will
ask
you
how
many
pounds
approximately
you
compost
a
week,
bring
to
the
drop-off
site
if
you
use
regular
plastic
bags
empty
scraps
into
the
bin
and
do
not
throw
in
the
plastic
bag
if
you
use
bpi
certified
bags
just
throw
in
the
bin
with
the
rest
of
your
scraps.
Easy
right.
N
This
program
is
part
of
a
pilot
to
expand
composting
in
beacon.
We
really
really
really
need
to
know
a
little
bit
about
your
composting
experience.
We
would
greatly
appreciate
it
if
you
fill
in
our
simple
surveys
over
a
six-month
pilot
run
to
help
us
collect
data
to
present
to
the
city
council
in
order
to
receive
funding
for
further
stages
of
the
compost
program.
A
There
there
is
a
second
video
coming
for
the
other
part
of
our
compost
program,
so
this
is
the
centralized
drop-off
stations
we've
set
up
and
then
there's
also
the
backyard
bin
program.
So
the
cac
did
a
fabulous
job
sergey
with
his
filming
and
editing,
and
this
the
second
one
is
coming
out
and
we'll
be
on
our
website
shortly.
B
Yeah,
the
biggest
dumbest
pieces
that
can't
be
composted
or
my
objective
to
handle
them
right
so
anyway.
Okay,
I
think
that
takes
care
of
our
community
segment
and
now
we've
got
public
comment,
so
we
do
have
a
notice
of
meeting
location
that
we
are
both
in
person
and
online
and
we'll
start
with
public
comments
that
are
here,
and
anyone
who
wants
to
have
a
public
comment
on
any
topic
tonight
has
up
to
three
minutes
and
the
people
who
are
listed
are
pete
bailey.
First.
L
Hey
good
evening,
my
name
is
pete
bailey
from
10
from
wilkes
street,
and
I'm
here
to
let
everyone
know
that
we
are.
The
tree
advisory
committee
is
hosting
an
arbor
day
celebration
on
this
friday
april
22nd.
So
it
is
a
week
before
the
national
arbor
day,
but
it'll
be
this
friday,
which
is
great
because
the
weather
looks
sunny
and
70s.
L
There'll
also
be
a
raffle
with
items
from
local
businesses
that
have
donated
great
stuff
for
both
kids
and
adults,
and
I
even
hear
that
happy
valley
is
going
to
make
a
signature
cocktail
so
come
on
by
it's
going
to
be
at
300
main
street
right
next
to
happy
valley
from
3
30
to
5
30
again
on
friday
april
22nd.
So
I
hope
to
see
everyone
there.
Thank
you.
Q
Good
evening,
teresa
craft,
I
look
forward
to
seeing
beacon
as
the
long
proposed
walkable
city
when
main
street
is
shut
down
with
no
street
parking,
while
milling
and
paving
is
taking
place
next
week.
Even
if
it's
only
temporary
with
the
boomin
building,
we
are
experiencing
the
high
flow
of
traffic
on
all
residential
roads.
Q
Q
In
a
blink
of
an
eye,
we
will
be
experiencing
even
more
traffic
from
groville
once
the
bridge
street
bridge
is
reopened
to
either
foot
traffic
or
car
traffic.
250
plus
cars
coming
in
and
out
of
that
place
daily
is
going
to
be
a
nightmare
and
impact
everybody
in
this
city.
I
hope
we
don't
see
them
all
going
the
back
way
out
on
liberty,
street
washington
and
depeister
racing
to
town,
but
we
know
that's
a
given
we're
already
seeing
a
tremendous
amount
of
vehicles
a
day
passing
through
with
serious,
wear
and
tear
on
this
road.
B
F
C
R
B
H
M
K
B
H
Yeah,
I
only
had
one
thing
tonight
and
lee
already
kind
of
touched
upon
it,
but
I
we
lost
someone
from
beacon
over
last
last
weekend,
a
good
friend
of
mine
and
a
good
friend
of
many.
His
name
was
jim
cotter
and
he
was
a
local
volunteer
in
the
beacon
democratic
committee,
and
he
there's
just
so
many
nice
things
to
say
about
jim,
but
his
his
undying
commit
commitment
to
social
justice,
his
volunteerism,
his
selflessness.
He
never
he
volunteered
for
so
much
and
never.
H
S
S
C
S
G
I
do
change
the
location,
but
had
a
really
nice
time
in
memorial
park.
Last
time.
I
want
to
remind
everybody
that
the
community,
quarterly
applications
or
survey
for
solutions
are
due
this
friday
at
4
pm
a
reminder
that
this
is.
We
are
asking
for
answers
to
the
question.
What
is
a
key
aspect
of
community
and
public
safety
that
is
missing
or
requires
improvement,
and
that
the
city
should
provide
there's
more
information
about
the
community
quarterly,
which
has
three
different
parts.
But
the
first
is
this
survey
for
solutions,
and
those
solutions
are
due.
This
friday.
K
Regarding
upcoming
earth
day,
I
just
wanted
to
read
a
press
release
from
that
was
put
out
by
hudson
valley
brewing,
but
they
are
so.
Industrial
arts
brewing
on
52,
hudson
valley,
brewing,
sustainable,
hudson
valley
and
hudson
valley.
Green
drinks
are
joining
forces
this
earth
day
for
a
celebration
of
sustainability
and
green
energy.
K
You
can
hit
both
both
breweries
with
a
free
electric
vehicle
shuttle
between
locations
sponsored
by
the
healey
brothers.
You
can
also
test
drive
an
electric
bike
from
podego
bikes
and
from
both
breweries.
A
portion
of
sales
during
the
event
will
go
to
benefit
sustainable.
Hudson
valley,
plus
there'll,
be
lots
of
upcycled
giveaways
for
your
outdoor
projects,
so
it
sounds
like
a
fun
and
educational
opportunity
to
support
sustainability
as
well
as
our
local
businesses,
so
please
come
by
and
that
is
on
april
24th,
2022
from
12
to
6
p.m.
Thanks.
K
M
One
is
at
the
daydream,
collaborative
clinic
on
544
main
street
at
11
a.m,
and
the
number
one
is
at
the
veterans
building
on
main
street
on
teller
at
1,
30
pm,
with
the
beacon
volunteer,
ambulance,
corp
and
they're
doing
that
with
stop
the
bleed
as
well.
And
lastly,
I
am
hosting
a
award
meeting
in
next
month,
wednesday
may
18th
at
6
30,
and
I
will
have
more
details
on
that
as
they
come,
but
to
keep
up
with
what
is
going
on
and
what
I
have
to
offer.
M
I
I
But
what
these
local
organizations
are
doing
is
finding
out
how
to
play
out
here
in
beacon,
and
the
reason
why
I'm
bringing
it
up
is
that
they
are
at
this
point
of
gathering
stories.
They
have
some
ideas
of
eventually
doing
exhibits
about
it.
Maybe
gathering
doing
a
story
core
version
using
students,
but
for
the
moment
what
I
wanted
to
share
is
that
anyone
who's
interested
in
sharing
a
story.
I
We
have
lots
of
people
who
still
live
in
beacon
or
who
know
people
who
lived
in
beacon
or
now
elsewhere,
who
probably
have
stories
to
share
about
how
they
and
their
community
were
impacted.
So
if
you
are
one
of
those
people
and
know
of
someone,
I
wanted
to
share
different
ways
that
you
can
reach
out
to
share
your
story.
One
is
to
show
up
at
the
library
or
at
the
beacon
historical
society
and
they're.
Welcome
to
take
your
details.
I
If
you
want
to
share,
you
can
also
ask
particular
at
the
library
for
michelle
rivas
who's
spearheading
the
project
for
them.
If
calling
works
better
for
you,
the
number
for
the
library
is
eight
four
five,
eight
three
one
one
one,
three
four
and
michelle's
extension
is
one
zero
one.
They
also
have
an
online
form
as
well.
You
can
fill
out.
That's
beaconlibrary.org,
then
forward.
Slash
west
end
is
all
one
word,
and
the
other
thing
I
wanted
to
say
is
that
I'll
be
having
my
first
office
hours.
I
B
All
right,
thank
you
all.
Just
one
thing
I
have
a
couple
of
proclamations,
but
I'll
do
it
after
chris
has
any
updates
on
urban
renewal.
I
just
I
just
want
to
note
that
a
lot
of
the
west
end,
you
know,
was
dramatically
affected.
If
you
look
at
the
relatively
new
housing,
you
can
kind
of
think
through
was
this
here
100
years
ago
and
you
kind
of
know,
that's
part
of
the
urban
renewal
project.
B
My
particular
the
home
that
we
live
in
was
originally
going
to
be
torn
down.
The
houses
behind
us
were
part
of
urban
renewal.
The
houses
in
front
of
us
ended
up
being
part
of
urban
renewal,
but
there
was
a
clump
of
older
homes
and
the
dutch
reformed
church
that
survived
our
home
was
known
for
14
apartments.
B
At
one
point,
given
the
zoning,
which
was
a
disaster
and
was
slowly
changed
over
time
into,
you
know
historic
preservation,
single-family
housing,
which
was
what's
initially
there
with,
because
it's
in
historic
overlanding
options
of
things
like
accessory
units
or
apartments
or
other
things,
so
yeah,
it's
an
interesting
period
and
I'd
like
to
learn
more
about
it.
I
think
we've
we
lost
a
lot
so
and
we've
survived
some
of
it
has
survived.
So
I
just
wanted
to
add
that
nothing
else.
Chris.
O
A
A
We've
put
information
on
social
media,
we're
going
door-to-door
with
the
businesses
on
main
street
to
let
them
know
and
we'll
also
be
doing
a
swift,
9-1-1
call
tomorrow.
Just
to
let
people
know,
this
is
coming
we're
going
to
try
to
minimize
the
impact
on
businesses
on
main
street
and
keep
keep
the
street
open
as
much
as
possible,
but
from
5am
to
5pm
each
day
next
week
there
will
be
no
parking
on
main
street
if
we,
if
we
complete
the
task
earlier
than
friday,
we'll
open
the
road
earlier
than
friday.
B
Parking
5
a.m
to
5
p.m,
but
you
can
do
the
overnight
parking.
Yes
and
there'll
always
be
a
lane
open
next
week
on
main
street,
because
they're
they're
removing
the
current
paving
that's
the
first
week
and
the
second
week-
and
I
got
this
right
monday,
tuesday,
wednesday
of
the
second
week,
there'll-
be
no
parking
at
all
24
hours
and
they're.
A
I
I
A
B
Great
okay,
I
have
two
proclamations
to
do
next,
this
one's
personal.
It's
a
proclamation
in
honor
of
autism
awareness,
whereas
autism
is
a
pervasive
development
disorder
affecting
social
learning
and
behavioral
skills
of
those
affected
by
it,
and
whereas
autism
was
once
thought
to
be
a
relatively
rare
disorder,
but
with
increased
awareness
and
diagnosis,
it
is
estimated
to
occur
as
frequently
as
1
in
60
children
and
whereas
there
is
while
there
is
no
cure
for
autism.
B
It
is
well
documented
that
if
individuals
with
autism
receive
treatment
early
in
their
lives,
it
is
possible
for
them
to
make
significant
improvement
and
whereas
the
autism
society
of
america
has
spearheaded
an
awareness
effort
in
order
to
educate
parents,
professionals
in
the
general
public
about
autism
and
its
effects,
now,
therefore
be
it
resolved
that
I
mayor
lee.
Kiriakou
do
hereby
proclaim
by
april
as
autism
awareness
month
in
the
city
of
beacon,
signed
today.
B
For
those
of
you
who
know
me
personally,
my
spouse,
elizabeth
and
I
are
parents
of
two
daughters
in
the
spectrum.
So
just
you
know,
and
then
the
other
one
is
one
on
trees,
and
so
I
think
ren
you've
got
this
when
I'm
out,
but
here's
the
official
proclamation,
whereas
in
1872
the
nebraska
board
of
agriculture
established
a
special
day
to
be
set
aside
for
the
planting
of
trees,
that's
in
nebraska,
where
they
have
no
trees
and
nothing
but
flat
land.
B
And
whereas
this
holiday
called
arbor
day
was
first
observed,
with
the
planning
of
more
than
a
million
trees
in
nebraska
and
whereas
arbitrary
is
now
observed
throughout
the
nation
and
the
world.
And
whereas
trees
can
be
a
solution
combining
climate
change
and
whereas
I'm
going
to
skip
a
little
bit
of
it.
B
Of
joy
and
spiritual
renewal
now,
therefore
ailee
kiriakou
may
or
the
city
beacon,
do
hereby
proclaim
april
29th,
that's
two
saturdays
from
now
as
arbor
day
in
the
city,
two
fridays
from
now
as
arbor
day
in
the
city
of
beacon,
and
I
urge
all
citizens
to
celebrate
arbor
day
and
to
support
efforts
to
protect
our
trees
and
woodlands
and
further.
I
urge
all
citizens
to
plant
trees,
to
gladden
the
heart
and
promote
the
well-being
of
this
in
future
generations
signed
on
the
18th
tonight.
A
B
Okay,
one
down
resolution
number
63
is
appointing
kate
streicher
to
the
tree
advisory
committee.
Can
I
get
a
motion
and
a
second
motion?
Second,
so
I
think
that
was
paloma
and
dan.
I
think
she's
a
good
ad.
I
think
you've
seen
the
resume
and
pete's
here
to
make
sure
we
do
it.
I
guess
any
discussion,
okay,
so
all
in
favor,
aye.
B
C
B
T
T
The
changes
are
minimal,
but
a
local
law
is
required
because
they
are
set
forth
in
the
city
code.
The
local
law
will
be
subject
to
a
permissive
referendum,
meaning
it
does
not
become
effective
for
at
least
45
days,
and
residents
who
oppose
the
local
law
can
sign
potentially
file
a
petition
which
would
then
put
it
to
a
referendum
vote
at
election
time.
B
Okay-
and
the
only
thing
I
would
add,
is
you
know
as
drew
said:
it's
a
minimal
impact.
We
just
equalized
a
couple
of
districts
awards
that
were
a
little
bit
out
of
whack.
It
affected
300
and
or
so
people
on
the
census
out
of
fourteen
thousand,
and
it's
basically
never
more
than
moving
a
block
in
one
direction
or
another,
so
it
was
kept
to
a
minimum.
I
want
to
thank
john
clark
for
putting
it
together
and
making
the
proposals
and
we'll
collect
input
at
the
public
hearing.
I
I
have
a
couple
of
what
I
think
are
typos
just
on
the
streets,
but
I
think
probably
before
we
have
a
hearing
just
should
be
adjusted
for
ward
1
number
seven.
So
this
is
page
112
in
the
packet.
It
says
west
on
herbert
street
to
matawan
road.
I
think
it's
supposed
to
be
to
fishkill
avenue
because
it
goes
across
herbert
then
down
then
across
on
kent.
I
B
C
T

The
draft
that
you
saw
last
week
had
a
little
bit
of
language
that
needed
to
be
cleaned
up,
so
you
have
a
clean
draft
and
this
would
really
empower
knight
by
the
new
york
power
authority
to
provide
energy
to
municipalities
and
many
communities
and
help
help
to
really
move
forward.
The
transition
to
green
energy,
which.
M
A
I
I
just
have
wanted
to
clarify
that,
because
I've
read
the
bill
and
listened
to
last
week's.
I
wasn't
here
in
person,
but
I
still
wasn't
quite
sure
what
this
law
was
doing
so,
basically
right
now,
existing
law
limits
how
much
new
york
state,
how
much
power
and
when
new
york
state
can
generate
power,
and
one
of
the
main
purposes
of
this
bill
is
to
lift
those
limits
is
am
I
reading
that
correctly.
H
I
I
G
A
H
A
I
G
I
A
The
sham
there's
a
proposed
transmission
line
from
hydroquebec
down
the
hudson
and
champlain
valleys.
Okay,
so
that's
that's
a
huge
project
and
again
it's
not
production,
it's
transmission
of
primarily
green
power
down
to
the
areas
that
we
need
it
and
then
there's
huge
wind
projects
going
on
off
of
the
coast
of
long
island,
and
I
know
that
some
of
the
engineering
firms
that
I've
worked
with
in
my
last
job
were
already
planning
for
that,
because
you
have
to
just
getting
getting
these
large
turbines
through
the
road
network
of
new
york
as
a
challenge
like
that.
H
C
F
C
C
B
C
I
B
S
A
B
B
V
Clark
kevin
to
wilson
street,
so
I'd
like
to
pick
up
where
we
left
off
right.
So
I
came
in,
I
showed
you
some
papers,
we
talked
about
affordable
housing,
there's
examples
and
how
family
could
get
in
very,
very
inexpensively,
and
we
presented
this
50-foot
wide
zoning
that
used
to
exist
a
very
common
on
liberty
street.
The
entire
street
was
laid
out
that
way
historic
diagrams
and
the
city
records
show
that
it's
very
accessible
on
the
parcel
explorer
now.
V
So
the
question
becomes
is
what
kind
of
novel
circumstance
we
face
that
might
be
beneficial,
so
a
50
foot
by
100
foot,
wide,
largely
structure
in
boundaries
and
parking
garage
and
everything.
That's
there
supplemented
with
attractive
landscaping
and
planters
and
whatever
the
case
may
be,
provides
an
opportunity
for
at
least
maybe
maybe
a
dozen
families
along
liberty
street,
in
addition
to
my
own
holdings,
that
would
benefit
significantly
financially
from
the
ability
to
be
able
to
plop
down
this
kind
of
this
set
of
forms.
V
The
regularity
of
the
forms,
the
approval,
the
structure
of
being
the
same,
reduces
dramatically
the
cost
of
construction,
not
just
for
anything
I
might
build,
but
for
people
throughout
the
town.
It
raises
a
more
interesting
question:
what
precisely
is
the
texture
of
the
fish-killed
creek
in
relationship
to
land
and
what
is
the
vulnerabilities
to
that
land
that
sits
below
liberty,
street
vine,
as
well
as
others,
and
the
issues
really
come
to
the
dam
upstream
and
that
real
estate
assemblage
of
development
that
has
occurred
over
the
several
years?
V
V
C
J

W
W
As
a
city
in
the
state
of
new
york,
I
am
very
proud
to
call
myself
a
resident
of
the
city
of
beacon
based
on
the
leadership
that's
been
shown
in
the
past
and
you
continue
to
show
across
the
board.
I
also
wanted
to
mention
that
friday
being
earth
day
there
is
a.
There
is
a
rally
for
climate
justice
through
the
organization
called
climate.
W
Can't
wait,
it's
a
rally
in
albany
and
I
encourage
anyone
who
is
looking
to
support
climate
justice
more
broadly,
including
bill
bills
like
the
public
renewables
act
to
head
up
there
and
make
your
voices
heard.
I
will
I
will
be
there
in
addition,
a
good
friend
of
mine
who
I
hope
will
be
able
to
call
in
on
zoom
after
me
here,
vcos
ashoka
is
biking
from
new
york
city
from
battery
park
to
albany
in
support
of
climate
justice.
This
week
and
he's
here
here
now
held
a
rally
earlier
this
afternoon.
W
B
U
Yes,
it
is
true
me
and
some
friends
are
biking
from
new
york
city
to
albany,
currently
to
support
a
package
called
the
climate,
can't
wait
bill
package
which
includes
this
bill,
so
it
means
a
lot
that
the
city
that
I
live
in
and
love
is
supporting
it
as
well,
I'm
with
some
of
the
trekkers
and
those
supporters
right
now
can
I
get
a
cheer
all
right.
I
hope
that
didn't
blow
out
your
speakers
so
anyway.
Thank
you
all
and
I'll
see
the
rest
of
my
time.
Thanks
so
much.
