Speaker 0: There's a motion in the second. Councilman Andrews, do have any comments or. No? Okay. Councilman Austin.
Speaker 2: It just. Just a quick question of our public works director. Why do we need to increase the contract? Sorry. Can you repeat the question? So we we are increasing the contract by an additional 5 million. Can you just for the benefit, tell us why? Absolutely. This is our annual contract for sidewalks. We do about you allocate about $3 million every year to do our concrete sidewalks. We also use the same company to do our ADA ramps. So there's another half a million that we use. And also we utilize this company to provide additional concrete services for paving alleys. They have the cheapest dollar per square foot unit price right now and we also use them for multiple areas in parking lots or any areas that we need to provide concrete work. So they have basically kept their unit prices for the last three years. Thank you for that explanation.
