| 0:00.0 | I'm so sorry, you had just reached my answer and it is 1033 with Kennell and Casey on |
| 0:08.1 | 93 WIBC 317 684 8444. That's the phone number if you'd like to contribute. It's time |
| 0:15.8 | to hear from you with your voicemails. We got so many calls about gas station food across |
| 0:20.0 | the city. We'll get to those in just a second. But before we do, we got one phone call |
| 0:25.1 | related to another topic that I wanted to address. |
| 0:28.1 | I was just wondering on this property facts thing, what happened to the 1% tap for homeowners |

| 1:48.3 | any time every single year. So anytime a school system says, those tax caps, we don't |
