AND DO WE HAVE COME ON UP STEPS THAT STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? YES I AM CARRY FERGUSON. I RESIDE AT 1384 CASCADE. DR GRAY CITY, OHIO, 43123. IS THERE? UM, IN THIS LET ME GET MY NOTES HERE. OKAY I'M ON JANUARY 22ND THIS, UM PRELIMINARY DEVELOPED PLAN WAS RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION. THERE WERE TWO STIPULATIONS. DO ARE YOU IN AGREEMENT WITH THOSE OR HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THOSE TWO CONCERNS THAT THEY HAD IN THEIR CONCERN WAS IT DIDN'T THINK THAT THE FRONT OF THE BUILDINGS HAD ENOUGH FEATURES ON THEM TO DISPLAY ON THE STREET. THE SECOND ONE WAS THEY DIDN'T THINK THAT THE REAL FLYING HAD ENOUGH. I TOLD THEM THEN THAT I WAS WILLING TO DO A COUPLE OF THINGS TO MAKE ALTERATIONS TO THE BUILDINGS TO COMPLY BETTER TO THEM. UM I DON'T KNOW THAT I TOTALLY AGREE WITH WHAT THEY SAID. BUT I AM I WANT TO DO THIS PROJECT. WE WANT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FINAL DECISION WILL BE ON THAT ROOF LINE CHANGE. UM I DID GO SEE OUR ARCHITECT AND I HAVE A COUPLE THINGS IN MIND THAT I THINK THAT WOULD BE WILLING TO DO. SOMEONE TO SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT WE YOU KNOW THAT LOT IS VERY OBSCURE IN SHAPE. I THINK THAT WE TRULY SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN DETAIL TO FIT THAT LOT BEST AS POSSIBLE, AND WE'D LOVE TO BUILD THE PROPERTY DOWN THERE SO I'M HOPING FOR ANY QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY YES, WE'LL TAKE QUESTIONS AND FROM THE COUNCIL. YES MR BARRY CHAIRMAN, MR BOZO WHEN IT COMES TO, IT SAYS THE ROOF PITCH SHALL BE CHANGED TO A MINIMUM PITCH OF 8812 AND EVERYTHING. WHAT ARE YOU WORKING WITH THEM ON? ON WHAT THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE. I MEAN, THIS IS KIND OF IT SOUNDS KIND OF LIKE THAT WAS THAT WAS A STIPULATION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION. THEY WOULD WORK WITH THE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT ON THAT PARTICULAR MATTER. AGAIN IT WAS A SUGGESTION AND I CERTAINLY RESPECT THE APPLICANTS OPINION IN TERMS OF THE DEVELOPMENT. I THINK WHAT'S IMPORTANT HERE WE HAVE TO LOOK AT IS THIS PARTICULAR PERSONAL ZONE INDUSTRIAL? AND I THINK THAT'S ONE THING THAT WE WOULD, UH ALL LIKE TO SEE CHANGE TO RESIDENTIAL USE. SO AGAIN, HE'LL BE WORKING WITH THE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT FOR CHANGES. AH TO THE TO THE APARTMENT ITSELF. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIRMAN. YES I PERSONALLY WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHAT THESE ARE GOING TO BE. I MEAN, WHERE'S THE COUPLE IS GOING TO BE ADDED, AND LET'S SEE. THIS IS A UM, WE'RE JUST DOING A PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN ARE SO THIS WILL COME BACK TO US. EVENTUALLY. OKAY, SO WE'RE FINE, TED. WE WE'VE BUILT THIS PROJECT VERY SIMILAR TO THIS RIGHT OUT FRONT OF WINDSOR PARK. THEY CURRENTLY HAVE ONE.WE DID ALREADY EXPAND THE HEIGHT OF THIS ROOF, COMPARED OR WE BUILT ON DUDLEY AND WOODLAWN.
OKAY? WE DID THAT PRIOR TO SUBMITTING THAT. THEY DO HAVE THAT IN FRONT OF YOU ON THE SECOND PAGE OF THE HANDOUT. OKAY, I'M FAMILIAR WITH THE BUILDING THAT WE BUILT HERE A YEAR AGO. IT'S ACROSS TOWN. WE DID ALTER THIS NEW PLAN TO GIVE IT A STEEPER PITCH ROOF. SO. DO YOU WANT TO SEE IT? I MEAN, ANYBODY COULD DRIVE BY AND DEFINITELY VIEW. VERY SIMILARITY OF WHAT THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE LIFE, OKAY? I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT NOW. ANY OTHER COMMENTS. QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. MADAM CHAIR? YES. OBSERVATION. UM. I THINK MOST OF
[00:10:07]
COUNCIL KNOWS WEST OF BROADWAY IS IN THE OLD PART OF GROCERIES, TAX ABATED. AND THE ORIGINAL STRATEGY AND DOING THAT WAS TO BE ABLE TO DO INFILL PROJECTS. AND TO REVITALIZE PROPERTIES THAT NEEDED UPGRADED AND THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY FILL FALLS IN THAT CATEGORY, WHICH IS AN INTERNATIONAL SCENARIO BECAUSE IT DOES ALLOW THE DEVELOPER TO PUT SOME MORE MONEY AND POSSIBLY THEN HAVE TO PAY THE TAXES SO IT'S GOOD FOR EVERYBODY. THANK THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE REALLY APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU. YEAH MY COMMENTS. I HAD LISTENED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING IN THEIR COMMENTS, AND, UM, SOME OF THE OTHER PROPERTIES THAT YOU HAD BUILT IN GROVE CITY. AND I KNOW THAT THE STIPULATION FROM THE CHANGE THE CHANGE OF THE MINIMUM PITCH ON THE ROOF, AND I UNDERSTAND THEIR CONCERNS ABOUT JUST TRYING TO GIVE IT A LITTLE BIT MORE CHARACTER, MORE CURB APPEAL. AS FAR AS DIMENSION DIMENSIONAL KIND OF. WE DEFINITELY HAVE A NEW DRAWING THAT WE'VE ALTERED THIS ON THE ROOF LINE TO MAKE A CHANGE, AND I WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SUBMIT IT TO THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT. I THINK THEY'LL LIKE IT WHEN I SEE IT SO AND I ALSO COMPLIMENT YOU ON MAKING THE BEST USE OF THAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I THINK IT WILL DEFINITELY HELP THAT. INTERSECTION PERFECT, MADAM CHAIRMAN. JUST ONE OTHER QUESTION. IF I MAY, MR BARRY, HOW MANY BEDROOMS ARE HOW MANY? WHAT'S THE SPLIT ON THEM AS FAR AS TWO BEDROOM, ONE BATH AND ARE HEARD YOU SPEAKING EARLIER. I MEAN, I CAN'T REALLY SAY WHO WILL LIVE THERE, BUT OUR TARGET TENANT IS SINGLE PROFESSIONAL OR A LITTLE BIT OLDER PERSON. SOMEBODY MATURE, NOT REALLY LOOKING TO RENT TO A FAMILY OR SOMEBODY THAT HAS THREE OR FOUR AUTOMOBILES IN THE DRIVEWAY.SINGLE PEOPLE WE LOVE, BUT I CAN'T CONTROL EVERYBODY WHO WOULD BE ATTENDED THERE SO.

SET FORTH WAS REQUIRED BY SECTION 709-023 OF THE OHIO REVISED CODE , THE MUNICIPALITY SERVICES THAT CAN BE FURNISHED 2.0897 PLUS OR MINUS ACRES LOCATED AT 2 TO 3 TO EDWARDS ROAD IN JACKSON TOWNSHIP UPON ITS ANNEXATION TO THE CITY OF GROWTH CITY, AND WE DO HAVE UM. REBECCA MART SIGNED UP TO SPEAK TO THIS. SHE HAS LEFT, OKAY. IF I MAY JUST BRIEFLY.[00:15:03]
THIS IS JUST THE STATUTORY FIRST STEP IN THE ANNEXATION PROCEDURE . ALL IT DOES IS TELL THE PROPERTY OWNER PER OHIO LAW WHAT SERVICES MAYBE AVAILABLE TO THE PROPERTY. SO THIS IS JUST KIND OF ONE OF THOSE PROFORMA STEPS THAT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH. THANK YOU. OKAY, SO WE HAVE NANCY. WHEATON'S SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS. HI. AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE. NANCY BEAUTY WHEATON. IT'S MY LEGO NAME. 1121 78 EDWARDS ROAD. TWO LOTS OVER. FROM THIS ONE. IS THIS. THE FIRST QUESTION IS THIS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE COMMITTEE? YES.OKAY? THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN TO THE TOWNSHIP. THREE TIMES IF NOT FOR THEY HAVE. THREE IF NOT FOUR VIOLATIONS IN THE TOWNSHIP. THAT THEY I HAVE NOT. BOTHERED TO CORRECT AT ALL. THIS IS A DEAD END STREET. IT IS NOT TWO CAR LENGTHS WIDE. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU KNOW WHERE EDWARD ROAD IS OR NOT? YES, OKAY. UM WE . AT ONE OF THE TOWNSHIP MEETINGS. WE ALL SIGNED A LETTER THAT WE DID NOT WANT THIS. L L C OPERATING A BUSINESS. ON EDWARDS ROAD. THEY THE PROPERTY. THEN THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO STORE JOLLY PARTS STORAGE TRUCK. THE YOGURT SHOP OVER BY THE THEATER WHEREVER THAT IS, OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED. AND THEN WE GET A GARAGE. THEY'RE APPROVED FOR 22 STRUCTURES. A GARAGE IN THE HOUSE. THEY BUILT TWO GARAGES, ONE WITH A PERMIT ONE WITHOUT. THEY HAD TO STORAGE UNIT AT THE END OF THE ROAD. THAT WERE. NOT EVEN ON THEIR PROPERTY. THEY FINALLY MOVED THEM ONTO THEIR PROPERTY AND PASSED THEIR PROPERTY NINE ONTO THE NEIGHBOR'S PROPERTY. THEY HAVE NOT MOVED THOSE YET. THEY BUILT A SECOND GARAGE. THEY'VE NEVER MOVED IT. THEN THEY ALL OF A SUDDEN WE START SEEING APPROACH SWEEP CLEANING CHIMNEY CLEANING COMPANY TRUCKS. TO THE RUNNING A BUSINESS. WE TOOK HIM TO THE TOWNSHIP CALLED THE TOWNSHIP. WE NOTIFIED TOWNSHIP. WENT TO THE TOWNSHIP. UH, FIRST MEETING. THEY WENT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS AND GOT APPROVED TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANTED. SO THE SECOND TIME WE WENT, WE ALL WENT . WE SIGNED A LETTER. WE DON'T WANT COMMERCIAL. AT THE END OF A DEAD END STREET. CHILDREN WALKING TO THE BUS TO MCDOWELL. AND THEN THE THIRD MEDIUM WAS THEY WERE DENIED CONTINUE TO RUN ANY BUSINESS OUT OF THAT PROPERTY. THEY HAVE YET TO STOP. OKAY? YOUR TIME. IS THERE THREE MINUTES THIS TIME? IT'S UP RIGHT NOW. I APPRECIATE YOU SHARING THOSE COMMENTS. I KNOW THERE ARE OTHER COUPLE OTHER PEOPLE SIGNED UP FOR THIS AND THEN WE'LL HAVE DISCUSSION AND FIGURE THIS OUT.
OKAY, THAT'S FINE. THANK YOU. YEP. YOUR NAME. THE OTHER PERSON SIGNED UP IS A BETHANY VANCE.
HELLO RECORD YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE. MY NAME IS BETHANY VANCE. I LIVE AT 2218. EDWARDS ROAD. GROVE CITY, OHIO, FOR 3123. I LIVE NEXT DOOR TO THE SAID AREA AND ACCORDING TO YOUR SECTION, 79.3 AND SECTION B FIVE DAYS AFTER THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FILED.
WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE NOTIFIED. WE HAVE YET TO BE NOTIFIED THAT THIS WAS EVEN A THING.
IRONICALLY I FOUND OUT THROUGH SHANE FROM JACKSON TOWNSHIP THAT THERE WAS AN ANNEX MEETING. SO THAT IS HOW I AM HERE. UM AND SO BASICALLY TO FOLLOW WHAT NANCY SAID, IS YES. THIS THESE THIS LLC THERE'S A GROUP OF FOUR OF THEM. FIRST PETITION WITH FRANKLIN COUNTY AND WAS DENIED A
[00:20:01]
PETITION WITH JACKSON TOWNSHIP AND WAS DENIED. THEY'RE TRYING TO GO COMMERCIAL. WE KEEP DENYING IT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER YOU WANT TO ANNEX INTERGRAPH CITY THEY ARE IT IS A DEAD END STREET. THEY ARE AGAINST THE CREEK. THERE'S NO OTHER ACCESS TO GRIP CITY OTHER THAN TO GO BACK INTO THE TOWNSHIP AND GO SO I DO KNOW IN YOUR SECTION 50307 THE REVISED CODE. IT ALSO STATES THAT IF THEY BECOME AN EXTRA GRIP CITY IS NOW RESPONSIBLE FOR THOSE STREETS. I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU WOULD WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A STREET THAT NOBODY ON THE STRAIGHT. BESIDES, THESE GUYS WANT TO BE AN EXTENT I DO KNOW FROM. WE HAD TO PUT A WELL ON OUR PROPERTY THAT I DID CALL ABOUT HAVING CITY WATER FIRST, AND WE HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FROM MCDOWELL. TO OUR HOUSE, WHICH I'M ASSUMING MAYBE A REASON WHY THEY WANT TO AN EXTENT BECAUSE THEY WANT CITY. SEWAGE AND WATER. UM BUT NOBODY ELSE DOES. NOBODY ELSE WANTS TO PAY FOR THAT. SO WE'RE KIND OF HERE, JUST BEING AGAINST IT. UM I DO KNOW AND HAVE PROOF THAT THERE ARE SOME OF THEIR PARTNERS LIKE TO LIE UNDER OATH. UM AND DO FALSE THINGS SO WE DON'T TRUST ANYTHING THEY HAVE TO SAY OR DO BECAUSE LIKE THAT WAS SAID BEFORE THERE WAS A PERMIT FOR ONE BUILDING. THERE IS NOT A PERMIT FOR ANOTHER BUILDING. THERE IS NOW ANOTHER STRUCTURE GOING UP. UM SO CLEARLY THESE GUYS KIND OF DO WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. HOWEVER, THEY WANT TO DO IT. SO, UM THIS KIND OF JACKSON TOWNSHIPS HEADACHE AND I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU GUYS WANT THAT HEADACHE. STUCK UNDER THREE. THANK YOU APPRECIATE THAT. UM A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS I HAVE IS FIRST OF ALL, AS MR SMITH SAID, THIS IS JUST A TWO MOVED. I INTERJECT US. BASICALLY UM, IF WE COULD ASK MR SMITH TO REVIEW THE ENTIRE PROCESS JUST SO THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS HOW THIS WOULD ACTUALLY PLAY OUT VERSUS WHAT IS BEFORE US THIS EVENING. YES SO HOW THE ANNEXATION PROCESS UNDER OHIO LAW WORKS IS THEY HAVE TO FILE AN APPLICATION WITH THE COUNTY. PRESUMABLY UM, I THINK THIS IS TYPE TWO EXPEDITED. SO WHAT HAPPENS IS OH, OKAY. SORRY. ALRIGHT I'LL TRY TO BE LOUDER. SORRY UM, SO HOW THE ANNEXATION WORKS UNDER OHIO LAW IS THE FIRST STEP IS THEY HAVE TO FILE AN APPLICATION WITH THE COUNTY. THE COUNTY HAS TO APPROVE ALL ANNEXATIONS AS PART OF THAT PROCESS. THE COUNTY AND STATE LAW REQUIRES US TO PASS THIS RESOLUTION, WHICH FRANKLY, THIS COUNCIL DOESN'T HAVE A CHOICE BUT TO PASS BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING. THIS IS JUST A STEP IN THE PROCESS. THIS WILL BE SET FOR AN ANNEXATION HEARING IN FRONT OF FRANKLIN COUNTY IF THEY MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ANNEXATION, FRANKLIN COUNTY HAS TO APPROVE IT. WHICH DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING YET BECAUSE THEN IT HAS TO COME BACK TO GROWTH CITY. IT HAS TO SIT FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME. AND THEN THIS COUNSEL WILL BE ASKED TO ACCEPT IT. IF THEY ACCEPT IT, IT WILL FALL UNDER GROWTH CITY ZONING. OUR ZONING, FRANKLY, IN MY OPINION IS A LOT MORE STRINGENT THAN BOTH THE TOWNSHIP AND THE COUNTY SO THEY WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH OUR ZONING. UM AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONFORM WITH THE ZONING CODE IN GROVE CITY, AND RIGHT NOW IT'S ZONED OUR RESIDENTIAL SO IT WILL BE ANNEXED TO GROW CITY AS A RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY BECAUSE THAT IS THE MOST LIKE WHAT THEY HAVE IN THE TOWNSHIP RIGHT NOW. AND THEN THEY WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH OUR ONE ZONING. NOW THEY COULD ALWAYS ASKED TO CHANGE THE ZONING. THEY'RE ALWAYS ALLOWED TO DO THAT. BUT IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN WE WILL. BUT THIS STEP HERE LIKE I SAID, IT MEANS NOTHING. THIS LITERALLY IS JUST A STEP UNDER OHIO LAW THAT WE HAVE TO DO TO GET THE PROCESS ROLLING. UM I MEAN THIS COUNCIL AND I TOLD THEM THIS IN CAUCUS THEY CAN'T SAY NO TO THIS EVEN IF THEY WANTED TO, BUT WHERE THEY HAVE THE ULTIMATE CONTROL IS WHERE IT COMES BACK BEFORE THEM, AND THEY WILL EITHER VOTE TO ACCEPT IT OR REJECT IT AND LEAVE IT IN THE TOWNSHIP. WELL IN THE MEANTIME, THE CITY OF GRIFF CITY HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER ANYTHING THAT GOES ON IN THE PROPERTY. THE TOWNSHIP WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE LEAD ON ANY ENFORCEMENT ACTION. AND ANYTHING THAT GOES THROUGH THE COURT PROCESS TO GET DATES TENDS TO TAKE FOREVER. I FEEL YOUR PAIN ON THAT BECAUSE I'M USUALLY THE ONE SHOVING THESE THROUGH THE COURTS, AND IT'S TERRIBLE PROCESS. OKAY? WELL AND LIKE I SAID, ULTIMATELY, WHAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR IS TO COME INTO THE CITY, WHICH WOULD GIVE US MORE CONTROL OVER EVERYTHING THEY DO ON THE PROPERTY. SO AT THE END OF THE DAY, THAT MIGHT BE GOOD FOR YOU ALL BECAUSE, LIKE I SAID, WE HAVE A FULL TIME ZONING STAFF INSPECTORS WHO ARE VERY GOOD AT THEIR JOBS IN TERMS OF FIXING THIS, BUT ONCE AGAIN, THAT'S NOT FOR WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT COME BEFORE US FOR SEVERAL MONTHS DOWN THE ROAD.THANK YOU, MR SMITH. I'M CHAIRMAN. YES. WE ALSO HAVE A PROCESS DURING THE ZONING AND
[00:25:01]
ANNEXATION. AND I HAVE TO SPEAK UP A LITTLE BIT. WE ALSO HAVE A PROCESS DURING THE ZONING AND ANNEXATION WHERE WE LOOK FOR CURRENT CODE VIOLATIONS WERE THE PROPERTY SITS CURRENTLY AND WE PRETTY MUCH TAKE THE ATTITUDE THAT IF THEY HAVE CURRENT CODE VIOLATIONS AND THINGS GOING ON, WE'RE NOT GOING TO BRING IT INTO GROVE CITY IF THEY ALREADY HAVE EXISTING VIOLATIONS. SO THE OPPORTUNITY THERE IS TO MAKE SURE WE KNOW WHAT THOSE VIOLATIONS ARE. WHICH SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE DOING TONIGHT. AND YOU KNOW, WE'LL TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN WE GET TO THE NEXT STEP. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL PLEASE. MADAM CHAIR. YES I'M SORRY. I'D LIKE TO HAVE MISS WHEATLEY. COME UP TO THE MIC FOR THE RECORD. TO GO BACK OVER WHAT THE TOWNSHIP HAS DONE JUST FOR THE RECORD, IF YOU WOULD, MADAM CHAIR OF COURSE WE WON'T COME BACK UP. PLEASE TELL US WHAT THE TOWNSHIP HAS DONE SO FAR SO THAT WE KNOW DO YOU WANT TO HELP ME? NO OKAY, OKAY. THEY WERE GIVEN THEY BOUGHT THE PROPERTY. UM JUST AS REAL ESTATE CORRECT. UM. YOU KNOW THE VIOLATIONS OR YEAH, VIOLENT VIOLATIONS ARE THEY HAVE PUT THEY WERE APPROVED FOR TWO STRUCTURES. THEY BUILT A 23 GUARD GARAGE WITH TWO DOORS. AND THEY WERE APPROVED FOR A HOUSING HOUSE. INSTEAD OF A HOUSE. THEY BUILT A THREE CAR GARAGE. SO THEY ARE IN VIOLATION THERE WITH NO PERMIT. THEY HAVE TWO STORAGE UNITS WITH NO PERMITS THAT ARE EXTENDED INTO HER PROPERTY. THEY WILL NOT MOVE THEM. THEY SAID THEY WERE PUTTING UP A PRIVACY FENCE. THEY HAVE NOT. THEY TODAY OR YESTERDAY OR ONE DAY THIS WEEK. I DON'T KNOW WHICH THEY HAVE NOW STARTED A LIKE A TENT GARAGE. OR PARTY TENT THAT STRUCTURE. IT'S TRASH THEY HAVE TRACED TO COMMUNITY. IS IT THE DEAD INDUSTRY? IT'S AND NOBODY SEES THEM. WELL, I JUST WANTED TO GET IT ON THE RECORD AS ANYBODY FROM THE TOWNSHIP. INFORMED YOU AS TO WHAT THEY'RE DOING AS FAR AS CONTACT WITH SHANE AREN'T WORTH TWICE A WEEK. I'M TEXTING HIM EVERY TIME THEY GO DOWN THE ROAD BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD TO STOP THE BUSINESS AS OF THE LAST MEETING IN DECEMBER. YEAH IN DECEMBER TODAY WERE TOLD TO STOP ALL BUSINESSES. THAT MEANT EVERYTHING I EVEN ASKED DIRECTLY . DOES THAT MEAN THAT THEY CAN'T STORE AND GET SUPPLIES FOR THE DONUT SHOP FOR THE YOGURT SHOP? STOP TRUCKS FOR THE TIM NEED CLEANING. AND JOHN INFORMED ME THAT, YES, THEY HAVE TO CEASE AS OF TODAY OF THAT MEETING, OKAY, THAT'S THAT'S ALL. I WANTED. MY TIMESHARE MADAM CHAIR. YES, SWEDEN. SO AND I JUST WANT TO ADD. I APPRECIATE, UM, PUBLIC COMMENT COMING OUT AND AGAIN AS STEPHEN SMITH DISCUSSED THE VOTE TODAY IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE VOTES SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE PUBLIC COMMENT AT FUTURE HEARINGS AS WELL, IF YOU IF YOU WISH WE DIDN'T GET IF SHE DIDN'T GET A NOTICE THIS TIME, HOW WILL WE KNOW WHEN THERE'S A NEXT MEETING? IT WILL BE PUBLISHED ON OUR WEBSITE AND WE WILL WE CAN LET YOU KNOW I DID. I DID PULL UP THE FRANKLIN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURTS WEBSITE AND I DON'T SEE ANY PENDING ACTION AGAINST THE LLC RIGHT NOW.

AND JUST ONE OTHER ITEM OF COMMON IF I MAY, UM, JUST AS WE MOVE FORWARD, CONNECT WITH MISS KELLY BEFORE YOU LEAVE AND SHARE YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION. SHE'LL GO OVER WITH YOU OUR PORTION OF THE NOTIFICATION PROCESS. SO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT TIMELINE AND ALSO KEEP YOU IN THE LOOP AS FAR AS THESE FUTURE DECISIONS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AND AGAIN THIS EVENING IS REALLY JUST A FORMALITY, THE SERVICES THAT THEY WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR IF THEY WERE TO BE ANNEXED AT FUTURE DATE. THEY APPROACHED YOU TO BE AT YES, CORRECT. THAT'S CORRECT. YES. THAT WAS THE LAST COMMENT FROM THE AUDIENCE ANY[00:30:07]
