          [6.D First and Final Reading of the Utility System Revenue Bonds, Series 2026B Ordinance]
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THAT BRINGS US TO ITEM SIX. D AND LEE IS GOING TO LEAD US OFF. 
          ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING. COUNCIL LEE WALLACE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER HERE TODAY FOR THE NEXT TWO ITEMS. EXCUSE ME. THIS WILL BE APPROVAL FOR OUR 2026 B AND 2026 C BOND SALES. SO THESE ARE FOR UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR OUR WATER UTILITY. THE PROJECTS ARE PART OF THE UMBRELLA OF THE GEORGETOWN REGIONAL WATER INITIATIVE. SO PROJECTS THAT WILL RECEIVE AND TRANSPLANT TRANSMIT NEW SUPPLIES OF WATER. THIS FIRST ONE, 2026 B IS FOR $29 MILLION. THIS IS THROUGH THE TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD SWIFT PROGRAM. SO YOU'VE ALREADY TAKEN SOME ACTION IN PREVIOUS MONTHS TO APPROVE FOR THE CITY TO APPLY FOR THE PROGRAM. AND TODAY'S VOTE IS THE FINAL APPROVAL. NOW THAT THE TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD HAS SETTLED ON THEIR INTEREST RATES AND THE. JUST LIKE OUR OTHER UTILITY REVENUE DEBT, THESE BONDS WILL BE REPAID WITH THE UTILITY RATES THAT WERE ALREADY ADOPTED AS PART OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2027 BUDGET. SO THE FIRST SERIES 2026 B WAS THE LOW INTEREST LOAN PORTION OF THE PROGRAM. SO THE TRUE INTEREST COST IS 4.29%. WE DID JUST HAVE THE RECENT OPEN MARKET SALE OF WATER BONDS TWO WEEKS AGO, AND THE CITY RECEIVED 4.98%. SO CALCULATING THE SAVINGS FROM THE LOWER INTEREST RATE IS ABOUT $3.5 MILLION OVER THE LIFE OF THESE BONDS. SO THAT IS A GOOD SAVINGS FOR OUR WATER RATE PAYERS. UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL GO AHEAD AND READ THE CAPTION. OKAY. CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE 
          [00:05:03]
ACTION TO APPROVE ON FIRST AND FINAL READING. AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS UTILITY SYSTEM REVENUE BONDS SERIES 2026 B IN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $29 MILLION, PLEDGING CERTAIN REVENUES IN SUPPORT OF THE BONDS. AWARDING THE SALE OF THE BONDS TO THE TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD AND AUTHORIZING OTHER MATTERS RELATING TO THE BONDS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR LEE? LEE PROBABLY A DUMB QUESTION. TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD. THEY'RE NOT THE LENDER ON THIS. THEY'RE BASICALLY A COSIGNER. IS THAT HOW THAT WORKS OR IS IT OR ARE THEY ACTUALLY THE ONES PROVIDING THE FUNDS? ARE THEY ACTUALLY THE. YEAH, THEY'RE. WELL, THIS IS JENNIFER RITTER. SHE'S OUR THE CITY'S FINANCIAL ADVISOR. IT'S LIKE, WELL, YEAH, I'D PROBABLY SAY IT BETTER. THEY ARE THE PURCHASER ACTUALLY. 
          SO THEY WENT OUT AND SOLD THEIR OWN BONDS. OKAY. THE TWO DAYS FOLLOWING YOUR LAST UTILITY SALE, THEY HAVE FUNDS PROVIDED BY THE STATE ELECTIONS AND STATE ALLOCATIONS AS WELL. SO THEY ARE THE PURCHASER AND WILL BE HOLDING THIS DEBT. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. YEAH, THEY'RE DOING THAT FOR MULTIPLE PROJECTS ACROSS THE STATE. AND SO USING THEIR CREDIT RATING AND THE AMOUNT THEY'RE TAKING INTO THE MARKET IS WHAT HELPS PRODUCE THE SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS.

OKAY. SO THIS IS THE 2026 C SERIES. SO AS MENTIONED, WE APPLIED UNDER TWO PARTS OF THE TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD SWIFT PROGRAM. SO SERIES C IS FOR $17 MILLION. THIS IS THE DEFERRED PORTION OF THE PROGRAM. AND SO THE TRUE INTEREST COST FOR THAT WAS 3.75%. THE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS ARE DEFERRED FOR FIVE YEARS. SO THAT'S THROUGH 2031. AND BASICALLY THE SIGNIFICANCE OF BENEFIT OF THAT PROGRAM IS IT ALLOWS FOR US TO MORE GRADUALLY IMPLEMENT THE RATE INCREASES THAT ARE NEEDED TO RECOVER THE COSTS FOR THIS DEBT SERVICE. 
          I'LL GO AHEAD AND READ THE CAPTION CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO APPROVE ON FIRST AND FINAL READING AND ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS UTILITY SYSTEM REVENUE BONDS SERIES 2026 C IN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $17 MILLION, PLEDGING CERTAIN REVENUES IN SUPPORT OF THE BONDS.

          [6.F Public Hearing and First Reading for an Ordinance designating Reinvestment Zone No. 2026-003]
RIGHT. NEXT UP CAMERON. KEVIN'S PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU. I SAY I DID NOT PICK THAT PROJECT NAME. I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PRESENTING, BUT I'M AGAINST IT. 
          SO GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. TONIGHT WE HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING AND A FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE THAT WOULD ESTABLISH A REINVESTMENT ZONE. SO IT'S ZONED 2026/003. I DID WANT TO MAKE A CORRECTION ON ONE PART OF THE AGENDA. WE DID HAVE 013 INSTEAD OF 003. SO WE'LL JUST MAKE THAT CORRECTION AND WE'LL FIX THAT FOR THE NEXT AGENDA FOR THE SECOND READING. 
          THANK YOU TO A CERTAIN COUNCIL MEMBER WHO CAUGHT THAT TO. BUT THIS IS THE ZONE. IT'S IT'S THE CROSSPOINT BUSINESS PARK BUILDING NUMBER ONE, THIS IS JUST CREATING THE REINVESTMENT ZONE AREA. IT'S NOT ACTUALLY A TAX ABATEMENT. SO THIS IS JUST THE FIRST STEP IN THE TAX ABATEMENT PROCESS. THE ADDRESS OF THE ZONE IS BUILDING ONE LOT ONE BLOCK A. IT'S ABOUT 19.675 ACRES OF THE JACKSON SHORE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS THE PHASE ONE OF THAT PROJECT. IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I CAN READ THE CAPTION. OKAY. IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING AND FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE DESIGNATING THE REINVESTMENT ZONE NUMBER 2026 003, PROVIDING ELIGIBILITY OF THE ZONE FOR COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL TAX ABATEMENT CONTAINING FINDINGS THAT THE AREA QUALIFIES TO BE DESIGNATED AS A REINVESTMENT ZONE IN THE IMPROVEMENT SOT ARE FEASIBLE AND PRACTICABLE, AND A BENEFIT TO THE LAND IN THE CITY, PROVIDING A REPEALING CLAUSE, PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THANK YOU. CAMERON, ANY QUESTIONS FOR CAMERON ON THIS? YOU KNOW THE OPPOSITE OF FOSSILIZE IS NO, I DON'T. MY GEOMETRY SKILLS ARE NOT GREAT. SCALING. SCALING IS WHAT IT IS. YEAH. THANK YOU. OKAY. I'M GOING TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. NO ONE HAS SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS. AND SO I'M 
          [00:10:03]
GOING TO CLOSE IT AND ENTERTAIN A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE REINVESTMENT ZONE. SECOND, ALL IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU CAMERON. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE 
          [6.G First Reading - 2026-13-SUP - 2303 Austin Ave S]
IT. ALL RIGHT. LAST UP WE HAVE HUNTER'S GOING TO DO THIS ONE FOR US SIX G. ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY NAME IS HUNTER. AND TONIGHT BEFORE YOU WE HAVE 202613SUP. 
          SO THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON A REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR THE SPECIFIC USE OF GENERAL AUTOMOBILE REPAIR AND SERVICE IN THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICT FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2303 SOUTH AUSTIN AVENUE AND 211 WEST 24TH STREET. HERE'S AN AERIAL IMAGE OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. IT IS LOCATED ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION BETWEEN AUSTIN AVENUE AND FM 1460. SOME OF Y'ALL MAY RECOGNIZE THE PROPERTY AS YOU APPROVED A REZONING EARLIER THIS YEAR AND WHERE IT WAS REZONED FROM LOCAL COMMERCIAL AND NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO GENERAL COMMERCIAL. THERE ARE A VARIETY OF USES NEARBY, BUT THE REQUEST WAS MAINLY REVIEWED IN CONSIDERATION OF THE SMALL RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE SOUTH OF THE PROPERTY. FUTURE LAND USE AND IS COMMUNITY CENTER, SO THAT'S MEANT TO PROVIDE SERVICES FOR RESIDENTS OF SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS AND ARE OFTEN COMPRISED OF ESTABLISHMENTS THAT SERVE THE RESIDENTS OF GEORGETOWN. IN ONE AREA, THE PRO GLASS AUTO REPAIR BUSINESS HAS EXISTED AT THIS LOCATION FOR AT LEAST 20 YEARS, AND IN THE USE OF THEIR PROPERTY HAS BEEN CONSIDERED LEGALLY NON-CONFORMING, AND THE APPLICANT IS NOW LOOKING TO EXPAND THEIR SITE. AND. AND THEY'VE CONSTRUCTED A NEW PARKING LOT TO THE SOUTH OF THE ORIGINAL PARKING AREA. SO TO ELIMINATE THE NON-CONFORMING USE OF THEIR PROPERTY AND THEY'RE REQUESTING THE SPECIAL USE PERMIT. SO THIS SLIDE PROVIDES YOU AN OVERVIEW OF THE CONCEPT PLAN. AND SO AS MENTIONED THE APPLICANT HAS ALREADY CONSTRUCTED THE PARKING AREA. AND BUT THE PLAN INCLUDES SEVERAL UPDATES TO THE SITE, INCLUDING STRIPING OF THE PARKING LOT, ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING AND SCREENING, AND A RECONFIGURED DRIVEWAY PROVIDING ACCESS TO 24TH STREET. MOVING FORWARD TO SPECIAL USE PERMIT APPROVAL CRITERIA. THE REQUEST WAS FOUND TO PARTIALLY COMPLY WITH THREE CRITERIA AND DID NOT COMPLY WITH ONE CRITERION. SO OVERALL, AGAIN, OUR BIGGEST CONCERN WAS THE PROXIMITY OF THE BUSINESS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SO HAVING THE USE RIGHT NEXT TO THESE RESIDENCES ISN'T NECESSARILY DESIRABLE FROM A PLANNING PERSPECTIVE. AND BUT THE PARKING LOT WILL BE SCREENED WITH LANDSCAPING AND A MEDIUM LEVEL BUFFER YARD. AND SO SINCE THE INTENT OF THE SPECIAL USE PERMIT IS TO ALLOW FOR AN EXPANSION OF THE BUSINESS, AND THERE IS AN INCREASED RISK OF NOISE, DUST OR OTHER HAZARDS COMING CLOSER TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND THE APPLICANT DID CONFIRM, THOUGH, THAT THERE'S NO INTENT TO UTILIZE THAT PARKING AREA AND FOR REPAIRS, AND THAT REPAIRS WILL BE LIMITED TO THE EXISTING BUILDING. MOVING FORWARD TO THE APPROVAL CRITERIA FOR REZONING, THE APPLICATION WAS FOUND TO COMPLY WITH THREE CRITERIA AND PARTIALLY COMPLY WITH TWO. SO THE AUTO SERVICE USE FITS THE EXPECTED USES FOR PROPERTIES WITH A COMMUNITY CENTER, FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION. AND WHILE THE ZONING CHANGE WOULDN'T NECESSARILY PROMOTE THE HEALTH, SAFETY OR GENERAL WELFARE OF THE CITY, OBTAINING THE SUP WOULD HAVE THE BENEFIT OF ELIMINATING THE NON-CONFORMING USE OF THE PROPERTY. THE PROPOSED SUP IS SOMEWHAT COMPATIBLE WITH THE PRESENT ZONING AND CONFORMING USES OF THE NEARBY PROPERTIES, AS AGAIN, THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS BEEN IN OPERATION FOR AT LEAST 20 YEARS ALONGSIDE THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SO, BASED ON THE FINDINGS OF THE STAFF REPORT, WE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL TO P AND Z, AND THEY RECOMMENDED APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS THAT REPAIRS TAKE PLACE INSIDE OF THE EXISTING BUILDING AND THAT THE PAVED AREA WITHIN THE RESIDENTIALLY ZONED PROPERTY BE REMOVED WHEN THE APPLICANT INITIATES THOSE OTHER SITE IMPROVEMENTS. AS REQUIRED BY THE CODE. PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN A 300 RADIUS, 300 FOOT RADIUS OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WERE NOTIFIED OF THE REQUEST. WE RECEIVED ONE WRITTEN COMMENT IN FAVOR AND ONE WRITTEN COMMENT OPPOSED. SO THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. 
          AND IF Y'ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE. AND OR IF YOU WANT ME TO JUST READ THE ORDINANCE. SO DON'T FORGET, OKAY, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS, GRANTING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR THE SPECIFIC USE OF GENERAL AUTOMOBILE REPAIR AND SERVICE WITHIN THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICT FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2303 SOUTH AUSTIN AVENUE AND 211 WEST 24TH STREET, BEARING THE LEGAL 
          [00:15:06]
DESCRIPTION OF 0.52 ACRES. LOT ONE A BLOCK ONE HIGHLAND PARK, REVISED BLOCK ONE, LOTS ONE AND TWO WEST PARK, AMENDED AND 0.95 ACRES. LOT SEVEN A BLOCK ONE, HIGHLAND PARK, BLOCK ONE, LOT SEVEN AND EIGHT, AMENDED. REPEALING CONFLICTING ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS, INCLUDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THANKS, HONOR. ANY QUESTIONS? GOODMAN. SO LET'S GO BACK TO SLIDE SEVEN. OKAY. AND IT TALKS ABOUT REMOVING PAVEMENT OR SOMETHING. CAN YOU USE YOUR MOUSE OR SOMETHING TO KIND OF SHOW WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THERE? YEAH. SO YOU CAN SEE SORT OF WHERE MY CURSOR IS. THIS IS THE PARKING AREA THAT THEY HAD ORIGINALLY CONSTRUCTED. THIS PIECE OF PAVEMENT. THERE IS ACTUALLY RESIDENTIALLY ZONED. 
          AND SO THAT'S NOT A PERMITTED USE WITHIN THAT ZONING DISTRICT. SO THAT WILL ALL BE REMOVED. 
          BUT THAT'S PART OF THEIR LAND. BUT IT'S NOT IN THE RIGHT ZONE. SO THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE IT OUT OF NO LONGER PARKING. YEAH. THEY THEY THEY OWN ALL OF THESE PARCELS HERE. OKAY. SO THAT'S WHY THAT'S EXCLUDED FROM THIS REQUEST. AND THEN THEY'RE GOING TO PUT SOME SCREENING BETWEEN THE EXISTING PARKING LOT AND THE PARK, THE PARKING LOT THAT THEY TOOK OUT OR TAKING OUT. 
          YES, SIR. YEAH. THERE'LL BE A MEDIUM LEVEL BUFFER YARD AND THEN ADDITIONAL PARKING LOT SCREENING ON TOP OF THAT. OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY, SO WITH THE SUP IT'S OBVIOUSLY THE USE, BUT ALSO IS IT THIS THIS, I GUESS IT'S A SITE PLAN SURVEY OR WHATEVER, WHATEVER THAT WHATEVER WE WOULD CALL THAT THE SITE PLAN. THE CONCEPT PLAN. YEAH. CONCEPT PLAN. IS THAT WHAT WE'RE RATIFYING? IF WE VOTE TO APPROVE THIS TODAY. THAT'S THAT'S WHAT'S BEING RATIFIED. IS THAT CORRECT? YEAH. SO IF YOU DECIDE TO APPROVE THE ITEM, THIS CONCEPT PLAN WILL BE APPROVED. YOU KNOW, AND IF THEY WANTED TO CHANGE IT, THEY MIGHT HAVE TO COME BACK TO, TO COUNCIL IF IT'S LIKE SEVERE ENOUGH OF A CHANGE. SO IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO CLEAN UP THE DRIVEWAY ACCESS THERE ON 24TH STREET, FROM WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE OR WHAT IT CURRENTLY IS. 
          RIGHT. AND THEN I GUESS THE BUILDING THAT'S CLOSEST TO 24TH STREET THAT IS BEING REMOVED, CORRECT? YEAH. OKAY. BUT THEN THE ONE EXISTING BUILDING THAT'S PARALLEL TO AUSTIN AVENUE THERE, OR SOMEWHAT PARALLEL, THAT'S STAYING, I CAN'T TELL. ARE THERE ADDITIONAL STRUCTURES BEING BUILT ON THAT SOUTH LOT? NO. OKAY. THERE WAS TWO RECTANGLES THERE. I DIDN'T THINK THOSE WERE STRUCTURES. YEAH, THEY'RE PRETTY, PRETTY NARROW, BUT I WASN'T CERTAIN WHAT IT WAS I WAS LOOKING AT THERE. YEAH. I ASSUME THESE ARE FOR TRUCKS. 
          THESE ARE LIKE LONG PARKING SPACES. YEAH. OVERSIZE PARKING. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. YEP. AND I KNOW THAT THE ARE READING THE STIPULATIONS ON THE SUP WAS THAT THE THEY WERE TO MOVE THE SECTION OF DRIVEWAY THAT HAD BEEN POURED THAT WAS IN THE RS SECTION. I GUESS MY QUESTION BECOMES HOW WE'RE APPLYING AN SUP TO A COMMERCIAL ZONE PROPERTY. HOW DOES IT HAVE ANY IMPACT OR BEARING ON WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE R S NEXT TO IT? I MEAN, I BELIEVE WE'RE ALLOWED TO CREATE THAT CONDITION, BUT THE CONDITION WOULD BE THE SUP IS AGAINST THE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY AND NOT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE RESIDENTIAL. CORRECT. BUT BECAUSE IT IS STILL SAME SAME PART OF THE SAME PROPERTY, WE ARE ABLE TO HOLD THAT COMMERCIAL PERMIT WITH THE CONDITION OF THAT. THEY CLEAN UP THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION BECAUSE IT'S STILL ONE LOT. AND CAN WE GO BACK TO THE CONCEPTUAL DRAWING BECAUSE MY, I GUESS THAT'S MY WHERE MY UNDERSTANDING MAY BE OFF. SO THE OUTLINED AREA IN RED IS THE PIECE THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, RIGHT? THAT'S THE COMMERCIAL ZONE PROPERTY CURRENTLY. YES, SIR. SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT AN SUP THAT IS APPLIED TO THAT COMMERCIAL ZONE CAN HAVE STANDING OVER A RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY NEXT TO IT? CORRECT. BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE ALSO DOING WITH THE SUP IS ALLOWING FOR AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE WITHIN THAT RED AREA AREA. OKAY. AND SO BECAUSE THIS SECTION IS ALSO PART OF THE PROPERTY, IT WON'T BE COVERED AND IT WON'T BE ALLOWED TO DO A AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE, BUT WE ARE ABLE TO TIE THE SUP TO ANYTHING WITHIN THAT GREATER LOT. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? JUST ONE QUESTION AROUND THE THE RECOMMENDATION, IF WE WERE TO APPROVE THIS, DO WE NEED TO SPECIFY THE CONDITIONS THAT P AND Z PUT ON THAT. OKAY. THANKS. ALL RIGHT. 
          I'M GOING TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. WE DO HAVE ONE PERSON SIGNED UP TO SPEAK SO WE CAN GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK. WE HAVE ALFRED FLORES. IF YOU'LL COME UP TO THE PODIUM 
          [00:20:01]
THERE. HUNTER, I HOPE YOU MAKE SURE THAT'S ALL SET UP. AND IF YOU'LL JUST STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS, AND THEN ROBIN WILL KEEP YOUR TIME AND YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES. JUST STATE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS. I'M ALFRED FLORES, LIVE AT 2403 HIGHLAND DRIVE. MY WIFE AND I HAVE LIVED THERE 40 YEARS. OUR CONCERNS ARE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME. AS WE'VE SAID IN THE PAST 2 OR 3 MEETINGS. THE REPAIRS THAT ARE GOING ON RIGHT NOW ARE FAIRLY CLEAN AND QUIET. OUR CONCERN IS IF IT WOULD BECOME A BODY REPAIR SHOP. DO THEY HAVE PERMISSION TO DO THAT WITH LARGE VEHICLES? GO IN THERE. WILL THERE EVER BE AN 18 WHEELER GOING IN THERE? WILL THERE BE A LARGE RV? WILL BE TRUCKS TOWING A BOAT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. SO IT MAY BE USED AS A CONVENIENT PARKING SPACE. ALSO, MY WIFE BROUGHT UP SHE DIDN'T KNOW IF COMMERCIAL PROPERTY NEXT TO RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY WAS REQUIRED TO HAVE A FENCE. A SIX FOOT PRIVACY FENCE. 
          WE NEVER GOT AN ANSWER ON THAT. AND OF COURSE, THE USUAL CONCERNS OF NOISE AND LIGHTS. 
          OBVIOUSLY WE WANT THEM TO STAY SAFE. WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT RIFF RAFF COMING IN AFTER HOURS, BUT WE HOPE THAT IF THERE ARE ADDITIONAL LIGHTS THAT THEY WOULD SHINE ONTO THE PROPERTY, NOT ONTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND THAT'S BASICALLY IT. OH YEAH. IT'S IF THE 24TH STREET HAS CARS ON BOTH SIDES, I THINK IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE TO GET THROUGH THERE. AND WE STILL HAVE KIDS AND GRANDKIDS PLAYING AROUND IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SO THAT IS OUR CONCERN. HOW AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE WILL GET THERE. IF THERE'S PARKING ON THE STREET, WHICH SHOULDN'T HAPPEN UNLESS THEY REALLY GET BUSY AND BUSINESS IS REAL GOOD AND, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WILL PARK WHEREVER THEY CAN AND THEY'LL TURN AROUND. THERE IS NO CUL DE SAC TO TURN AROUND IN. I MEAN, THAT'S A RESIDENTIAL STREET THAT DEAD ENDS INTO A BUNCH OF CRAPE MYRTLES. SO IF THEY IF SOMEONE MAKES A WRONG TURN OR SOMETHING, THEY'RE GOING TO BE HARD PRESSED TO BACK ALL THE WAY UP AND, AND GO BACK. THAT'S BASICALLY IT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR. ALL RIGHT. NO ONE ELSE HAS SIGNED UP TO SPEAK OR IS INDICATING A DESIRE TO DO SO. 
          SO I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND ENTERTAIN A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE SUP WITH THE CONDITION THAT THE AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS ONLY TAKE PLACE INSIDE THE BUILDING, AND THAT THE PAVED AREA WITHIN THE PROPERTY ZONED R S BE REMOVED. SECOND, ANY DISCUSSION NEEDED? I HAVE A COMMENT. SURE. I ACTUALLY I THINK THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF OF ZONING AND ENTITLEMENTS WORKING. I THINK THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT I'VE SEEN THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY IN A ZONING CASE. AND IT SEEMS LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE OWNER HAS GONE TO A LOT OF EFFORT TO BRING THIS INTO COMPLIANCE. AND, YOU KNOW, WE SEE SOME CASES WHERE THAT'S NOT THE CASE AND WE GET, YOU KNOW, BAD AND UNCOMFORTABLE OUTCOMES FOR THE PROPERTY OWNERS AND FOR EVERYBODY ELSE. SO I APPRECIATE THE EFFORT THAT THIS OWNER HAS GONE TO, TO, TO BRING THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT'S BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME INTO COMPLIANCE. I WANTED TO SAY THAT. YEAH, JUST A QUESTION. SO WITH THAT CONDITION, IF THIS IS APPROVED, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT SAYS THAT CONDITION IS THAT THE AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS ONLY TAKE PLACE INSIDE OF THE BUILDING. SO MY ASSUMPTION WOULD BE THAT IF THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF VERY LARGE BOAT RV, I MEAN, IT HAS TO BE DONE INSIDE THE BUILDING, CORRECT? OKAY. SO ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE TOO LARGE TO REPAIR INSIDE THE BUILDING WOULD NOT BE REPAIRABLE. IS THAT CORRECT? OKAY. I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT NOTE. THANKS. ALL RIGHT. LET'S HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. I GOT A MOTION AND A SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR. ALL RIGHT. THAT PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU. GOOD JOB. HUNTER.
