It is a notice location. Perfect, so we'll proceed accordingly. Thank you. So at this point in time, please stand and join me for the pledge of allegiance if you're able to.

Through the strength and determination of their ancestors and elders, the Hulkin people continue to live and thrive in contemporary San Leandro and the surrounding areas. If you would like to make a public comment during the meeting, you can do so in person or via Zoom. If you are present at the meeting, please complete a speaker card and submit it to the city clerk before the item is presented. Then wait for public comment on that item to be called. If you wish to participate in public comment via Zoom, you can use the raise your hand tool when the item is called. So we'll move to item four, a proclamation to declare Native American Heritage Month. And here to receive our proclamation, we have uh Merilyn Chot Brown of the Comanche Native people. So Marilyn is a San Leandro resident, we'll start with that full-blooded Comanche native whose ancestors lived generations on the plains of Oklahoma.
