And some of those in other ways meet with staff leaves on, et cetera. I was not part of this conversation. So it was just interested in if there was any discussion that might, the commissioners may want to share in regards to the recommendation that's being brought forward. No, nothing for me. The reappointment, the information we had was that this person was a diligent member, um, participated well and no concerns about reappointment. Um, is there anything additional you'd like to share about the new applicants? Sure. Um, and as noted on. The, uh, page and before you, we had four vacancies and, uh, just two applications. Um, both members qualify for, uh, member at large position, uh, commissioner Levy and Commissioner Stolzman had an opportunity to, uh, speak with Borlie Aison. And it was a fairly short discussion. If I recall correctly, Jinx Robin, the other comment we had like the application material. So there was like some information similar to a CV on the applicant and looked very qualified and engaged in the community. Thank you. So, um, I think we're ready for a motion on 5A.

I will just say in the discussion reviewing these, it was noted that one of the reappointment requests is great because they do some of the detail around the bookkeeping for that board that's a little different than some of the other boards.
0:05:46So just a note. Thank you for the additional information. It's helpful when we're looking at one, what, what do boards need so we don't have 10 accountants sitting on the same board as an example, but also to understand kind of the different diversity of board members. And you've done a great job.
