Assemblyperson Mowers, parting comments. Yeah, I just want to be clear, if there's a $75,000 exemption on your property, you're getting about a $700 a year break. So that's what you'll be voting on. Um, I wanted to, um, bring up an issue and ask the manager, uh, to get some information from our delegation. My understanding is that Alaska State Parks in the Matsu, which covers the Matsu and Copper Basin area, is down to 2 rangers.
