YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE TO DO FOR THIS PROJECT. WE'RE NOT UM.

THERE IS NO ELECTRONIC CAPACITY TO SERVE THE PROJECT. UM, BILL LINCOLN AND I WILL BE MEETING WITH ID ON TUESDAY. THE NEXT WEEK TO DISCUSS JPA AND THE CAPACITY ISSUES IN THE CITY AND THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE PROJECTS THAT WE BRING UP SPECIFICALLY TO DISCUSS WITH THEM FOR SOME REASON IT IS NOW INSTEAD OF INTERFACING WITH THE APPLICANTS THAT ARE ASKING FOR WILL SERVICE. THERE ARE SENDING THEM DIRECTLY TO THE CITY AND TELLING THEM TO WORK DIRECTLY WITH THE CITY NOW NOW UM, BECAUSE THEY'RE APPROACHED NOT LONG AGO WAS VERY DIFFERENT. I KNOW. SO I THINK IT'S BECAUSE COMMUNICATIONS. I'VE IMPROVED BETWEEN US. YOU KNOW THE MEETING WITH THE THE COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THEIR BOARD. AND THEN ALSO YOU KNOW WILLINGNESS TO WORK TOGETHER AND THAT THE FACT THAT I'VE LET THEM KNOW THAT THE COUNCIL IS GIVEN US
[00:05:04]
AUTHORITY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH A JPA AND SO I ACTUALLY SAW THEM AT THE CIVIC MEETING. THE OTHER DAY WHERE THEY WERE TALKING. IT WAS THE CBG ENERGY COMMITTEE. YEAH. AND UM, GOT TO TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT TOO AND GET SOME INSIGHT FROM RIGHT OVER THERE ABOUT THEY'RE THEY'RE DOING A STUDY RIGHT NOW ON CHARGE FOR INFRASTRUCTURE. SO I ASKED THEM WHO THEY WERE USING AND COME TO FIND OUT THAT THEY'RE USING IT TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION AND IT MAKES SENSE WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHAT THE NEEDS ARE RIGHT AND THEY SEEM TO BE FORTHCOMING BEFORE TRYING TO GET INFORMATION OF IT WAS LIKE PULLING THAT KIND OF STUFF, BUT THERE ARE MORE WILLING TO DISCUSS THINGS NOW. SO YOU KNOW WILLINGNESS TO PARTICIPATE PLUS, YOU KNOW THE THINGS HAVE BEEN TENSE BEFORE IN THE PAST AND HOPEFULLY WE WILL WORK BETTER TOGETHER IN THE FUTURE, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE'RE NECESSARILY MOVING FORWARD WITH THE STREET. WE STOPPED TO SEND OUT THE LETTER. WE'RE WORKING ON THE LETTER AND WHERE WE'RE WORKING WE'RE GOING TO START HAVING REGULAR MEETINGS WITH UM SPSI EVERY DOS WEEKS BECAUSE I WANT TO SCOTTS COMPANY. UM, YEAH, STRONGHOLD. UM, WE NEED TO GET THIS STUFF MOVING. SO, UM, I'D WAS VERY HELPFUL. I SAID I REACHED OUT TO GUILLERMO, AND I WASN'T ABLE TO GET DATES.AND THAT WAS ABLE TO GET BACK IN THE NEXT DAY AND SET UP A DATE AND SO NEXT TUESDAY. WE'RE GONNA WE'RE GOING TO MEET WITH THEM AND GET THAT STARTED. SO UM. THE. THINGS ARE COMING TO A HEAD WITH THEM AND THEY KNOW IT AND YOU KNOW THE THE MORE. THEY CAN SHOW THEY'RE WORKING WITH US. I THINK YOU KNOW IT LOOKS BETTER FOR EVERYBODY. SO I THINK THAT'S THE ADDITIONAL WILLINGNESS NOW, SO, BUT THAT'S ON ONE FRONT. WE'RE WORKING TOGETHER ON A JPA TO BUILD INFRASTRUCTURE WHICH HELPS BOTH OF US, BUT NOT NECESSARILY PROMOTING OUR OWN UTILITIES SO I HAVE A FEELING. THERE'S GOING TO BE TOO. WHAT'S GOING ON THERE THAT MAY NOT BE THINK.
IT'S REALLY THE ONLY OPTION WE HAVE. YES, IT IS GOING TO BE MODIFYING THEIR WORLD SERVICE PROCESS AS WELL, SO THEY'RE THEY'RE GOING TO BE INSTRUCTING OR THEY'RE GOING TO BE ASKING THAT THE APPLICANTS COME TO US. AND THEN WE GO TO THEM TO SAY. HEY, THIS PROJECTS BIBLE THEY'RE REQUESTING WHERE WE ARE REQUESTING ON THEIR BEHALF. AND THEN IT'S GOING TO GO THAT ROUTE RATHER THAN JUST THE DEVELOPER GOING DIRECTLY TO THEM. OKAY, THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. KENDRA, NOW, WE'RE MOVING ON TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT UPDATES.
SO THE STUDY CURRENTLY HAS THREE SUBMITTED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS THOSE ARE FOR THE AIRPORT BUSINESS PARK. THE IMPERIAL BATTERY STORAGE PROJECT AND COVE KNOWN AS THE RANCH AND WE ARE AWAITING THE MIDDLE OF DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR KPC. AIRPORT BUSINESS PARK IS LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION OF SIX AIRPORT BOULEVARD IN THE PROJECT PROPOSING TO DEVELOP FOUR THOUSAND FOUR THOUSAND SQUAREFOOT CONVENIENCE STORE FUEL STATION SMALL BUSINESS BUILDINGS FOUR STRUCTURES FOR STORING PERSONAL VEHICLES SO SELF STORAGE BUILDINGS FIVE SMALL WAREHOUSES AND SIX LARGE WAREHOUSES WERE ABOUT HALF WAY THROUGH THIS PROCESS WITH THE DETAILS OF THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. THE PROJECT APPLICANT TEAM SUBMITTED THEIR UM DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THIS WEEK AND IT'S FOR THEIR REVIEW SO WE'RE ANTICIPATING THIS ONE HOPING TO BE FINISHED UP BY THE END OF THE YEAR. FOR IMPERIAL BATTERY STORAGE. JUST FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND FIFTY MEGAWATT UNMANNED BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM FACILITY AND ASSOCIATED SIDE IMPROVEMENTS ON POINT. NINE LOCATED EAST SIX NORTH OF TWO IMMEDIATELY WEST OF THE EXISTING HID SUBSTATION APPROXIMATELY NINE TO FIVE. HACKERS WILL BE DESIGNATED FOR THE FIFTY MEGAWATT. UM VSS WE ARE WAITING FOR THEM TO COMPLETE THEIR PHYSICAL ANALYSIS BEFORE WE GET THAT FIRST DRAFT FOR THEIR DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. UM BUILD YOU HAVE A TIMELINE ON WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO BE DONE WITH THAT WITHIN THE NEXT THREE WEEKS. DAVID TASKS WORKING ON THAT ONE ALSO THAT'S THE DEVELOPER. WELL, THE CONSULTANT THAT WAS USED ALSO ON THE ANNEXATION THE SEVEN THEY'RE VERY FAMILIAR WITH WHAT GOES ON HERE. UM WITHIN THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME ONE TIME MONEY. THAT'S BEING PROPOSED FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AT FIRST AND THEN AS THEY GO THROUGH THEIR ENTITLEMENTS ANOTHER HUNDRED THOUSAND PER YEAR. UH, THE BIGGER THING IS I WHEN WE'RE LOOKING INTO WHETHER OR NOT THIS WAS WITHIN A PROJECT AREA OR NOT BECAUSE IF IT'S NOT WITHIN A PROJECT AREA THERE WILL BE SOME SIZEABLE PROPERTY TAX GENERATED BECAUSE BECAUSE OF THE ASSETS THAT ARE SITTING ON THAT BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO PUT APPROXIMATELY A HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS IN EQUIPMENT ON THE SITE ALSO WITHIN THE AGREEMENT. THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME ONE TIME MONEY COMING TO THE CITY WHERE THE TRANSACTION WHEN IT'S WHEN IT'S PROCESSED IN THE BATTERIES ARE DELIVERED TO THE SITE THE SALES TAX FROM THAT HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE MILLION DOLLAR PURCHASE WILL BE COMING TO THE CITY. SO THERE'S UP TO ABOUT FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS OF ONE TIME MONEY. THAT'S ANTICIPATED THROUGH THIS AS WELL, SO AT ONE TIME, BUT IT'S
[00:10:02]
IT'S A NICE INFUSION, THOUGH, AND THE TIMING COULDN'T BE BETTER. SO THEY MOVE FAST, YEAH, AND I'M VERY FAST. UM WAS THIS MONEY AND, UH, PROJECTED INTO THE BUDGET. NO, NOT NOT. THIS IS IN THE BUDGET. NOT THE ONLY THING THAT WAS PUT INTO THE BUDGET WAS JUST PIECE SEVEN BASED UPON OUR FEELING. YOU KNOW THAT WHAT WE'RE GOING ON THE LEFT TO BOARD HEARINGS AND THEN. OF COURSE COUNSEL KNOWS THAT. THERE WAS SUCCESSFUL THE PROTEST CHEERING. UM. DID NOT NOTHING HAPPENED WITH IT AND WITHIN SIXTY DAYS IT'LL BE USED WITHIN THE CITY. SO OUR PROJECTIONS ON BUDGET. WELL, YEAH, IF THEY'RE OKAY, SO IF IF WE'RE CLOSING OUT WITH THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT SOON. WE DIDN'T WE ADD THE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS TO THE BUDGET ON THIS. THEY HAVEN'T EVEN SUBMITTED PLANS YET. SO WE ARE GOING. YEAH, WE'RE ALWAYS OUT ON THIS, BUT THE DEVELOPMENT WE WANT THEM TO RUN PARALLEL BECAUSE 11 THEY GET IN AND THEY GET THEIR ENTITLEMENTS COMING BACK AND TRYING TO GET SOMETHING FROM THEM AFTER THE FACT AS MUCH THOUGH SO WE'RE TRYING TO RUN AT PARALLEL. NOW GOT IT. DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR STATEMENTS COMMITMENT BETWEEN SURE? UM. SO FOR CAN YOU GO BACK TO THE FIRST ONE? WHAT YOU'RE STILL GOING TO YOU'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT A THIRD ONE, RIGHT? YES.OH, GO FOR IT. UH, THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS FOR FORMALLY KNOWN AS THE RANCH.
COBA IS MASTERPLAN DESTINATION RESORT RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT INCLUDES A SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ACROSS VILLA RANCH AND STATE LOTS ALONG WITH A ONE HUNDRED KEY TOWN. HOME STYLE RESORT COMMUNITIES INCLUDE A LAGUNA BEACH ACCESS A FULL SERVICE FAW WALKING AND JOGGING TRAILS FOOLS AND. THE PROJECT ALSO INCLUDES A PUBLIC BEACH CLUB ON THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF AVENUE AND CALHOON THAT RESTAURANTS A PARKING TOURIST SEATING AND ANOTHER ONE SO THEY HAVE UM SUBMITTED FOR THEIR ENTITLEMENT APPROVALS, BUT THEY HAVE NOT SUBMITTED THEIR FIRST DRAFT OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT YET SO WE'RE STILL WAITING THAT FROM THEM SO FOR THESE PROJECTS BEFORE BEFORE THEY EVEN YOU KNOW. GET COMMENTS FROM FROM THE DEPARTMENTS. YOU'RE YOU GUYS ARE WORKING ON THE DAY FOR ALL OF THEM. WE'RE WORKING ON IT, CONCURRENTLY. OKAY? YEAH. SO UM LIKE FOR UM. WE'LL GO BACK TO THIS PROJECT. SO WE'RE WORKING ON THIS PROJECT CONCURRENTLY. SO THEY HAVEN'T RECEIVED THEIR ENTAILMENT APPROVALS YET. THEY JUST RECENTLY CLOSED THEIR CIRCULATION PERIOD. SO WE'RE WORKING ON THE DAY CONCURRENTLY WITH THAT AND WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO HAVE THEIR ENTITLEMENT APPROVALS AND THE DA APPROVED HOPEFULLY AT THE SAME MEETING. AND THEN UM. ARE YOU ATTACHING ANY TYPE OF LIKE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FOR ANY OF THESE LIKE I KNOW YOU TALKED ABOUT ONE TIME MONEY IS THAT WHERE YOU GUYS ARE KIND OF CONSIDERING LIKE THIS WOULD BE THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. THERE. THIS IS WHAT SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD ASK FOR DO WE TYPICALLY ATTACH THAT TO ANY OF OUR PROJECTS FOR THE DAYS. THEY ALL HAVE TO HAVE COMMUNITY BENEFITS AND THAT'S A REQUIREMENT FOR THE AND IT ALL KIND OF VERY DEPENDING ON THE PROJECT RIGHT DEPENDING ON THE BRIDGE. WHAT IT'S BRINGING TO THE CITY, THE AMENITIES, ETCETERA. YES. OKAY. AND HAVE YOU SO FOR ALL THREE LIKE FOR THE THE LAST ONE THAT YOU MENTIONED. WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE A COMMUNITY BENEFIT BASED OFF. WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING HERE? UM, PROBABLY THE TEST UM COST SHARING WHAT THEY WOULD BE LOOKING FOR BECAUSE THIS ISN'T A TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL AND WE LIMIT STEERS WITHIN YOU KNOW DEVELOPERS THEY'RE GOING TO ASK TO BE ABLE TO HAVE AN STR THROUGHOUT THIS BECAUSE THERE'S IT'S ALMOST THEY'VE THEY CALL IT FRACTIONAL OWNERSHIP TIME SHARE. YEAH, SO WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ALLOWING THEM TO DO THIS THAT THEY'RE GETTING ENTITLED TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. AND THEN BY DOING THAT THEN THEY'RE GOING TO PAY US TO THEM. AND THEN WE'LL WE'LL ASK FOR OTHER THINGS. THAT'S A NEGOTIATION BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PUT IN INFRASTRUCTURE. THERE MAY BE SOME COST SHARING AGREEMENTS. THEY ALSO HAVE TO HAVE ELECTRIC HERE. THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF THAT'S GOING TO GO INTO THIS THAT WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE UP AGAINST, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE WANT IT. ALL RIGHT. YES IS THE REQUIREMENTS COME THROUGH WHEN WHEN THEY'RE PUT THEM WHEN THEY'RE TRYING TO GET THEIR ENTITLEMENTS. WE'RE SEEING YOU NEED TO DO THIS. YOU NEED TO DO THAT? THAT'S WHERE A NEGOTIATIONS AND ALSO HAPPENS WHERE WE CAN DELAY SOME IMPROVEMENTS OR WE HAVE THEM PUT THEM IN A FRONT. AND THEN WE DO A SHARE AGREEMENT WITH THEM WHEN SOMEBODY COMES ACROSS THE STREET. THEY REVERSE THEM FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IT.
IT'S JUST A TIMING THING, BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY WANT TO PROTECT THEIR ABILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY HAVE STRS AND IT'S LOCKED IN FOR 30 YEARS. SAY THEY THEY DON'T WANT IT TO CHANGE AND SO THEY'RE GOING TO GIVE US SOMETHING FOR THAT. SO THERE COULD BE SOME ONE TIME MONEY. WE COULD ASK THEM FOR A FIRE ENGINE. WE COULD HAVE ANY NUMBER OF THINGS CAN ASK FOR SO I WOULD JUST SAY WITH LIKE PROJECTS LIKE THIS. UM LIKE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I THINK WE NEED TO KEEP IN MIND. IS LIKE THIS IS SOME KIND OF HOUSING RIGHT. IT'S SINGLE
[00:15:02]
FAMILY HOMES. UM, BUT IT IS NECESSARILY HOUSING FOR OUR RESIDENTS. SO I WOULD JUST SAY WHEN WE HAVE PROJECTS LIKE THESE AND YOU KNOW MY MINDSETS NEVER GOING TO BE LIKE WE TRY TO GET EVERYTHING FROM ONE PROJECT. WE CAN'T DO THAT WE CAN'T ASK. THAT'S NOT FAIR, BUT IF WE CAN, MAYBE HAVE A PLAN AS TO WHAT WE'RE GOING TO ASK FOR FROM DIFFERENT DEVELOPERS AND PROJECTS AND ENSURE THAT WE'RE ABLE TO USE. MAYBE SOME OF THAT FUNDING OR LAND. I DON'T KNOW WHATEVER IT IS THAT WE AGREE AND NEGOTIATE ON, BUT THAT WE COULD ALSO USE IT FOR OUR RESIDENCE TO BUILD AFFORDABLE HOUSING PARKS. UM, WHATEVER IT IS THAT WE NEED WHICH IS IT'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS THAT THEY CAN. UM, YOU KNOW GIVE THE CITY. SO I WOULD JUST THINK ABOUT LIKE IT'S GREAT. THEY'RE BRINGING A HUNDRED AND SIXTY SINGLE FAMILY HOMES, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE AFFORDABLE IN ANY WAY. THEY'RE PROBABLY GOING TO BE OR NOT PROBABLY MORE EXPENSIVE. SO JUST IT BE GREAT TO JUST KIND OF KEEP THAT IN MIND. WHENEVER WE'RE THINKING ABOUT WHAT ARE WE GOING TO ASK WITH CERTAIN PROJECTS. UM, AND THEN THE OTHER THING TOO IS SOME OF THESE THAT ARE KIND OF YOU KNOW A LITTLE BIT FARTHER FURTHER AWAY FROM THE CITY. UM, A LOT OF TIMES. I THINK THEY TRY TO GET AWAY WITH, UH, YOU KNOW DOING IMPROVEMENTS. UM, WHETHER IT'S YOU KNOW CURVE AND BETTER AND WHATEVER ELSE. SO JUST KEEPING IN MIND JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE OUT IN A DIFFERENT AREA OR AN AREA WHERE WE DON'T HAVE A LOT GOING ON DOESN'T MEAN, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE TO BE MAKING THESE IMPROVEMENTS. SO IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT I THINK WOULD BE REALLY IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND. THANK YOU. UM.HOW FAR OUT WITH THIS BE GOING INTO THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOR COVER. UM, IT'S STILL GOING TO BE QUITE SOME TIME. WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN THEIR UM CYCLE WORK YET. SO THAT'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE CIRCULATED. THAT'S GOING TO BE AT LEAST UM 30 DAYS FROM THE DAY. WE RECEIVE THAT. YEAH, WE'RE LOOKING AT MAYBE PROBABLY. YEAH, THAT'S IF THEY THEY CONTINUE AT THE RIGHT THAT WE'RE ANTICIPATING FOR THEM TO RATE. SO WE CAN BE MUCH MUCH LONGER AND THAT ACTUALLY NOT, BUT THAT'S THAT'S THAT. IT IS ALWAYS GOING TO GET A LOT OF THIS TOO. YEAH, I MEAN AT THE END OF THE DAY. WE'RE STILL GOES TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THEY MAKE THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS AND IT GOES TO FULL COUNCIL FOR FOR ADOPTION AND ALL OF OUR RECOMMENDATIONS IN ALL THAT WE ASKED FOR FOR THE EXPECTATIONS THAT WE HAVE, UM. YOU KNOW THE REASON I I BROUGHT BACK. UM, IS ASKING ABOUT THE MONEY IS BECAUSE WE ARE AT A DEFICIT AND SO ANY MONEY THAT WE CAN GET AND CAPTURE IS A GOOD THING FOR US. IT REALLY IS AND SO THE MORE AGGRESSIVE THAT WE CAN BE AND THEY'VE THEY'VE MOVE FAST FROM THE TIME THAT WE AT LEAST SO HOPEFULLY HOPEFULLY THAT THEY HAVE THIS GOING BY THE END OF THE YEAR. SO THAT WE CAN ADD THAT BUDGET OR WE CAN ADD THAT MONEY TO THE BUDGET. SO WE CAN YOU KNOW BRING DOWN THAT NUMBER OF BIT. YOU KNOW. IT'S VERY HELPFUL. ALL RIGHT. WELL, THANK YOU. ANY COMMENTS ARE QUESTIONS, ANY MORE NO MORE, NO MORE. THANK YOU WONDERFUL. SO IF YOU WANT TO YOU KNOW WHAT I WOULD LIKE FOR UM COMMISSIONERS TO DO IS TO LET US KNOW THE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO HEAR AND SEE COMING FORWARD TO YOU BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE WE'RE GOING START HAVING THESE PEOPLE THAT EVERY MONTH. SO WE'VE WE KNOW WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND? WE CAN PREPARE TO YOU KNOW ADDRESS YOUR CONCERNS AND THEN ALSO WE'RE GOING TO WANT TO UPDATE YOU. I KNOW THAT. UM.
SO I WILL PROBABLY WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU. YOU WANT TO SEE ON MONDAY AND SO MAYBE YOU CAN TALK ABOUT WHAT WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR A MINUTE. AND, UM. WHAT THE EFFORTS WERE THERE?

WHAT ARE GOING TO BE SOME GOALS THAT WE HAVE AROUND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ONLY UM NOT NECESSARILY HOUSING IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT EVERYTHING ELSE IS REALLY IMPORTANT, BUT MAYBE SOMETHING THAT FOCUSES MORE JUST ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. YEAH, SO WE I KNOW WE DISCUSSED EARLIER IN THE YEAR. UM, BECAUSE I THINK WE WANTED TO DO THAT LIKE HAVE AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLANNING SESSION JUST FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

IT'S IT'S MASSIVE PRETTY MUCH. YOU CAN YOU KNOW PUT SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THE CITY UNDER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. UM, AND YOU KNOW THERE IT IS HOUSING.
IT IS OBVIOUSLY COMMERCIAL. THEN THERE'S HEAVY COMMERCIAL, THEN THERE'S ENTERTAINMENT YOU KNOW SO YOU'RE BREAKING DOWN ALL THESE ALL THESE THINGS AND THEN I KNOW THAT WE, WE, UH, TRANSFER.
