6:08

Upon reviewing the file, uh notice that the appeal on this was filed March 17th, well after the appeal time period for the notice of zoning ordinance violation.

6:19

Um therefore time is expired and this isn't properly before the board.

6:23

Uh the municipal citation was however dismissed.

6:27

We can't revive that, uh, so there's no issue pending in in court either on this issue.

I thought maybe I should ask that when you were talking about, but you said there was no basically all of it is kind of already been.

7:36

Yeah, so what happens is there's a notice of zoning ordinance violation uh that's provided to the landowner, and they're you're given 14 days to appeal that decision.

7:48

Uh that wasn't that didn't happen.

7:51

Right.

7:52

And so the zoning ordinance violation is confirmed just by an act of law, and so there's no action to take at this time.

8:04

Of course, there's no repercussions either because the court case was dismissed.

8:08

So that's right.
