Folks are right, it's not directly in the charge to consider this very specific ordinance, the distinction between negotiated agreement versus ordinance for the ship limit. However, what is in the charge are almost all of the things that Attorney Wright listed when she talked about what would be critical in defending an ordinance of this nature. And that work is work that I think needs to be done so that when we do make this decision, if— or if we make this decision, or if we bring it back before the body, you know, we're doing so having done the homework to make her job easy to defend the actions that we take. Because I don't want to waste a lot of money on attorney work if we haven't done the homework ourselves before we jump into a decision. I'd also push back against the notion that because this is a policy call within the purview of the Assembly and not a decision that the VDF can make, that it's something that we should do without waiting to listen to a diverse panel of citizens weighing in on tourism, because most of the things that come out of the VDF are are gonna end up being policy calls that have to come before this body and aren't things the VITIF can vote on and enact themselves.
