And then I know we're all looking forward to new crisis care stabilization that will open this year. The foot patrol is a really key part of connecting all these pieces on the ground. Making sure that the policy changes you've enacted are enforced and that individuals are connected to those services. In closing, I'll just say that the foot patrol has been really effective in improving downtown public safety, and we're asking for it to continue in 2027, be made a permanent program, and ensure that, um, every day it takes place and continues year-round. So we all want to see a safe and vibrant downtown, and this is an essential part of creating that.
