Castillo ; Angel Bolques Subject: Re: Invitation to GEC, LLC Good Afternoon, Senator Bolques and Mr. Wessel, I’m writing to provide a brief recap of today’s conversation regarding the CYASP hearing scheduled for June 11, 2025. Mr. Wessel shared that he is currently coordinating with several key agencies involved in the Paul E. Joseph Stadium Project to ensure a unified approach before any formal testimony is presented. These agencies include: • Department of Sports, Parks, and Recreation (user agency) • Department of Public Works • Department of Property and Procurement (property holder) • Public Finance Authority (funding and oversight) Given the importance of alignment across all stakeholders, Mr. Wessel requested a follow-up call tomorrow, Tuesday at 2:00 PM, to provide a status update on his potential participation in the hearing. He also noted that roof installation over the stadium seating area is expected to begin this afternoon, marking a key milestone in the project’s progress. Thank you both for your time and continued commitment to transparency and accountability on this important matter. I will follow up again after tomorrow’s call.
