Uh, and then the last thing I'll say is the, the list, the prioritized list, uh, is included. We provided additional detail this year So you can see, uh, not only the locations but, uh, the specific work that will be done. Uh, it'll be our recommendation that we submit the complete prioritized list to the borough so that they can see it. However, we recognize, uh, and aren't necessarily anticipating that all, uh, $39 million, uh, will the borough have capacity to support in a single year. We also recognize that our top priority projects Um, are large projects.
