From the transcript

And so what I wanted to show you, and, and, um, you know, and obviously $249 million takes the number up pretty fast. But if you look beyond that, at the top right there, it talks about $386 million. There's another $137 million in grants that are coming to the borough that are improving upon primarily infrastructure and some programs in different areas across the borough. So I wanted to show you that just to give you a snapshot of what staff have been working on. You gave us clear direction, we've stayed the course, And the staff have done a remarkable job just going out looking for opportunities.
