My ask is to put this treatment onto the windows of certainly the new community center but also here.
My ask is to amend that ordinance, the leash law ordinance, and specifically to specify that under restraint does not mean electronic.
We'll take a look at that as we look at budgets as we look at designs for the new community center.
