That was loud. Good afternoon, all. Today is uh May 2nd. It is our regularly scheduled planning and zoning commission meeting. Um, if you would please silence your phones as to not interrupt anybody, and we will call this meeting to order. May we have a roll call, please. All commission members are present except for Commissioner Brandt. Thank you. And if you'd all rise and uh Mel, you want to lead us on the pledge? Okay, now is the time in the meeting for the call to public. This is when if you have something to speak about that is not on the agenda, now is your chance. Seeing nobody, we'll close call to the public. Item number one discussion possible action to approve the April fourth, twenty twenty-four regular meeting minutes. I make a motion to approve the meeting minutes from our April fourth, twenty twenty-four. Um meeting minutes as written. No, you're not no. Well, you got you hear me now? They need to turn you up a little bit. Can you turn up my mic, please? Commissioner Stein, I need your vote, please. You abstain? Okay. Ordinance 20 uh 2022-06 to allow the applicant additional time to obtain building permits for a parcel of land located at 3801 Highway 95 and described as Realoma Realomas Unit 4 Track 1206 block E, Lots 2 and 3, Section 11, Township 19 North, Range 22 West, Bullhead City, Arizona. But they had have something in common in that this is the first extension request for all of them. And uh I guess second thing in common is that if you look through the packet, is that the reasons given for the extension requests? I mean it's financing, obviously, we know what's happened the last couple years with with interest rates, but um we have been working with all these applicants. They all either are in the process of having drawings completed or have completed drawings and are just waiting for the right time finance wives to start their projects. Uh this specific one is for a proposed big O tires at 3801 Highway 95. Um again, it was approved two years ago. They do have I think full sets of drawings, and they're requesting two additional years in order to start the project. Questions. Madam Chair, this is a public hearing. Oh, thank you. Sorry. This is a public hearing. Anybody wishing to speak on this item? Seeing nobody, we'll close the public hearing. Now I motion to approve item number two. Second. Let's vote on the board. Gary seconded. Okay. Can I get a verbal my board here just died on me? Aye. Aye. Thank you. Six in favor of the motion. Motion carries. Okay. Public hearing, zoning map change.
