From the transcript

Next on the amendment, Mr. Voland. Thank you, Madam Chair. I will just say I am flabbergasted and offended, and the trust that Member Scout mentions, I do not share anymore. We had multiple conversations where you intimated to us as the representatives of this neighborhood that you would not provide crisis care at this location You described the model that you described here tonight, but now you're saying, oh no, we will provide crisis care. You also made those same overtures to the neighborhood that we represent.
