We have not had massive ICE raids or anything like that in the city. ICE has been here. It's been very targeted in the sense that they were going after federal fugitives or people who had outstanding federal warrants for violent crimes. So it's been very targeted. But that chill that it sends through the community is palpable. But let me tell you how it's going to impact us if that should happen.

We need to get the Palisades rebuilt. you're talking about a large percentage of construction workers who are immigrants. Now, I'm not saying they're all undocumented, but what is happening now is that even people who have documents, green cards, et cetera, they're going to be fearful of being picked up by ICE. So we're trying to focus on and I'm trying to focus on rebuilding the palisades

at lightning speed. And so far, it's been going with lightning speed. I want that to continue. But if the workforce is too afraid to go to work, you're going to have a negative impact in the Palisades, in Altadena, in Malibu, and in all of the areas that are affected. We're going to have a difficult time rebuilding our region.

Well, I have to tell you, our phase one and phase two really has gone. And that is what has been lightning speed. And I got to tell you, it's been lightning speed because of the administration. I think that the Trump administration wants to break the record for rebuilding as fast as possible. And so we have been flooded with staff from FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers.

And so that is going along fine. We're getting ready to enter into the next phase where the individual homeowners will start rebuilding. And we've been issuing permits and expediting all of that. It absolutely impacts our budget. Let me just tell you, the economic hit to our economy

for the rebuilding and then get the money back from FEMA. So that presents certain insecurity. But our budget problems are not solely because of the fire. They are impacted by the fires. But the main reason why we're struggling in our budget is because of the general economic downturn and cities across our state are experiencing this as well.
