that's one of the reasons why i would like to nominate commissioner arce for another year. i would also like to say that i have really appreciated his enthusiasm and his new ideas for the commission and the department, and i think we have benefited from those. and last but not least, i think it is important that we maintain a measure of civility at the commission at a time when there is so much change going on in the department. and i think that we can best serve the needs of the department -- well, maybe not -- that may not be the best thing we can do, but one of the best things we can do is to keep him on as our leader. so, i nominate him for another term with pleasure. >> thank you, commissioner wald. thank you. thank you, commissioner wald. >> second. >> i guess is there a second? >> second. >> thank you, commissioner stephenson. and then deputy city attorney owen, do we go for the next -- >> at this point you should ask if there are any other nominations. >> any other nominations, colleagues? >> for president. >> any other nominations, colleagues? okay. so, at this poi
