thank you for your time. >> thank you, and thank you, director borden for bringing that up. i do agree that it was the intent was i think the discussions that we always had was in order to see how a project works you do need 12 months at least to see how it works so i believe that is the spirit of the motion. yes? >> and i would just say i agree with that. i think also a spirit of this motion and this whole process is we're not going to do anything without significant public input and that alone will require significant time, this is not something that's going to happen without us going back to the public the way we have. on a procedural point, i will say especially with this understanding and very much appreciating our fellow citizens coming in on this, on a procedural point if ms. boomer has gone back to the tape and that is what was said, i don't think we should be in the practice of rewriting minutes after the fact, it's enough to have minutes of what our understanding was, but if that's what was voted on i think we ought to respect the sbegtd of that and not change the
