IT'S BEEN A MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM BROWN MARSHALL, SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER ODENKIRK. I JUST DO HAVE ONE COMMENT THAT I'D LIKE TO MAKE. I WANT TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE, SHASHI KUMAR, AND THEN ALSO AS THE CHAIR OF THE METRO COMMITTEE, FLOYD EMERY, FOR WORKING WITH METRO ON GETTING THIS $2 MILLION FOR THE ROUNDABOUT RIGHT AT KNIGHT ROAD, WHERE AS YOU CAN SEE THAT THE TRAFFIC HAS BEEN PICKING UP AND IT'S BEEN IT'S BEEN WORKING THROUGH THAT PROCESS. SO METRO HAS NOW OVER 1000 RIDERS. SO THIS WAS A GREAT PROJECT. THIS WAS A GREAT WORK THROUGH TO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE FORCED THEIR HANDS, BUT THIS IS A GREAT PROBLEM FOR THE CITY. INSTEAD OF PUTTING STOP SIGNS OR SIGNALS, GETTING THAT ROUNDABOUT. AND SO THAT WAY TRAFFIC WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW THROUGH THAT PROCESS. SO I WANT TO THANK THANK ALL THREE OF YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK IN THIS PROCESS. SO WITH THAT, I YIELD BACK RECOGNIZING COUNCILMEMBER EMERY. YES, ON ITEM ONE. ITEM NUMBER. A, WE SET UP A RESERVE. CAN YOU TELL ME, YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH IS THAT RESERVE? HOW WAS IT, YOU KNOW, DEVELOPED AT THIS? AT THIS POINT, I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE RESERVE HAS BEEN DETERMINED, BUT THAT WILL BE A PART OF THE PROCESS ONCE THIS IS FINALIZED. IT'S JUST A REQUIREMENT IN THE ORDINANCE THAT A RESERVE BE SET UP AS A PART OF THIS PD. SO THE REQUIREMENTS OF ALL OF THAT WOULD NEED TO BE DETERMINED. OKAY. SO THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION IS TO COME TO COME WHAT YOU'RE SAYING OKAY.
