And so...
you know, if there is a place where you're close to the threshold but you're not there, I would just urge you to, you know, go the extra mile because we had an instance in a project that occurred about 20 years ago where we did the health risk assessments and the standard
changed after we got the project built.
And that meant that we had to go back and do a great deal of monitoring and retrofitting and it was just, not only was it difficult, it just produced an incredible amount of anxiety.
And since we know that this situation exists and we know how to deal with it, I just wanna always bring up how very significant this is for our community.
Yeah, I have a couple comments too.
First off, I think this is just a real demonstration of how some of the legislation that changes the timeframe of approval is playing out.
And I'm sorry that we didn't get to have a community meeting because frankly, although a lot of people don't come to those community meetings,
that people that do often have really good ideas and they know a lot about how traffic flow and that sort of thing functions in their neighborhood that they can share that turns out to be valuable.
So I'm sorry that that didn't get to happen.
I'm very pleased to hear that you're cognizant of this vapor barrier issue.
It's a really big deal.
long term and I feel the need to bring that up.
I'll bring it up for the next project as well because it's just a fact of life and living in an area that had these groundwater plumes and using this land for other uses which is a perfectly reasonable thing to do but it needs to be done safely.
And so the engineering, you know, the engineering
parts of the project to make that happen are very important to safeguard the community.
The thing that I find the most troubling about this is really the mix of units.
When I see this, it's half studios,
and then half, except for a few, one bedrooms.
To me, this is, you know, clearly it's workforce housing, and I'm sure that you've done a great deal of market research to say, oh, this is going to do really well here.
