>> jake sayegh. -- sigg. i do support the motion but i do have one concern. and, you know, the city now has a biodiversity policy. it has a biodiversity staff. it recently, it is high on the agenda of climate. and yet, we are not protecting the highest biodiversity in the city, which is our grasslands. they are on the decline. i have been helping to manage them as a volunteer ever since 1988. that is 29, 30 years. and there are many, many fewer species now. some of the species have gone out in given areas. much more invasive plants. and yet, we are very shortstaffed with natural resource specialists. there are six gardeners and unfortunately, there is only only really about four with all the other problems. and they are really motivated people. i i'm really proud of the staff. but they are distressed by the fact that they can't keep up with the work and they know that if they can't get this project, excuse me, and a very short time , they will miss a whole year. they will have to wait another year. in the meantime, losing a lot. i asked randy's a bell -- abou
