Love in the park. I know if it made me better and have me, me and my friends will come out and have a good time. I know it's new park and bring some of the kids out and let them come out and have a good time and feel safe. Today we are standing here at seven fifty South Hancock Street, and I am filled with gratitude. Because when we look around at these beautiful homes, we are not simply looking at seven new homes. Seven opportunities for stability, seven opportunities for lasting affordable housing, and homeownership. And seven opportunities being fulfilled right here in the heart of Smoketown. A year ago, everybody was here celebrating a groundbreaking. But a groundbreaking is nothing but a promise. Right. What's going on here in Smoke Town is incredibly innovative to have a community land trust, the first in the city of Louisville that today has the first homes that are coming online for these families. We're here at Matzi Pie, a Louisville staple, best known for their delicious Neapolitan wood-fired pizzas. At Mozapi, they only use the highest quality ingredients, and each recipe is pared down to its most essential, which of course includes Little Pure Tap. Let's head behind the scenes and see how pure tap plays a role in Motzi Pie's pizza making process. Hi, my name is Robin, and I'm the head baker here at Mozapie. Here at Mozapie, we really try to use quality ingredients. So pure tap water is mainly in our sourdough pizza dough. And our pizza dough, we only use three ingredients flour, salt, and water. So the quality of water is very, very important to what we do here at Mozapy. Also, the microbiome is very important with the water. If it doesn't have a good microbiome, then the bread is not going to rise as we need it to. Metro Council, thirty seconds, please. Emily. You can. No, it's being held. I don't think so. So they got the huh? That's where I better get the head the other day. All right, we're gonna go. This is the regularly scheduled meeting of the public safety committee.
