One increase the area of project entrance signs, and two, increase the height of project entrance signs in conjunction with an existing multifamily residential development on 13.68 acres in an RM32 residential multifamily zone, generally located south of Warm Springs Road and east of Cimarron Road within Spring Valley.

Good evening.

Name and address, please.

And tell us about your item.

Good evening, Liz Olsen 1980 Festival Plaza Drive here on behalf of the applicant and property owner, Nevada West.

This site is located here on the corner of Warm Springs and Cimarron.

It is an approved multifamily development that's under construction.

As you know, Warm Springs is a hundred foot right of way.

We are across Caddy Corner from the hospital, and we have existing commercial and office surrounding us.

So if you look at this exhibit here, these are the two signs that we are proposing at the entrance of the project.

And this would be the sign that we are proposing at the intersection.

When you look at the code black and white, it does look like it's a pretty high increase, but when you do look at it as an overall uh project and the scale of the apartment complex, the signage is really pretty minimal.

Um, it looks beautiful.

Nevada West always does a wonderful job at their product.

Um we think this will be a perfect addition for this new development, and I am happy to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Do we have anybody that would like to talk about this item on the odd in the audience?

Seeing no one, commissioners, any questions?

Open or close the public hearing.

Commissioner Frazier, no questions.

I can support the application.

I apologize.

We're closing the public comment.

Um any questions.

I think it looks very nice.

Uh motion to approve SDR 260312 L VS.

There's a motion on the floor, please cast your vote.

Commissioner Fraser, yes.

That motion carries.

Thank you.

Good luck.

Thank you.

This is final action unless appealed.

Next is item number 13, UC 260322 use permit for small livestock chickens with waivers of development standards for the following.

One reduce setbacks and two, reduce building separation for accessory structures in conjunction with an existing single family residence on 0.17 acres and an RS5.2 residential single family 5.2 zone, generally located north of Cedar Avenue and east of Wind River Road within Sunrise Manor.

Do we have an applicant?

Please state your name, address, and tell us about your item.

My name is Victor Martinez.

The address is 620 Wind River Drive, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89110.

So we're here to ask permission to pretty much keep on taking care of our 12 hens that we have in our urban area.

We assure you that approving our proposal requests will not negatively impact the adjacent properties and surrounding neighbors.

A petition.

We have a petition that we had our neighbors sign.

That pretty much none of them oppose us having our chickens, our direct neighbor to the property that is north of us.

They actually love feeding our chickens.

So if anybody would have a direct impact, it would be them, and they're the ones who have absolutely no problem with us having our chickens.

Whenever we initially got our chicken coop, I did not know that I was in violation of any city code.

So I'm pretty much asking to allow us to continue to care for the chickens because I have a lot of time and money invested already into this project.

And it also benefits my daughter here.

She learns agriculture from this project.

We also homeschool, so it gives her responsibility, makes her wake up at an appropriate time, take care of the animals.

They're not just livestock to us, but they are our pets.

Yes, ma'am.

Okay, we are now going to open public comments for this particular item.

If you have something that you would like to talk about regarding this item, please come to the front and line up.

See no one, we will close public comments and I will hand it to our commissioners if they have any questions.

Commissioner Stone.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Uh Commissioner Clarski will probably get in this a little deeper, but just as a general overview.

Tell me, show it flash some pictures of these things on the screen.

Do you have any pictures?

Oh, the chicken coop and chickens?

Well, shed A, shed B, the chicken coop, and the patio cover.

Yes, I do.

We could zoom in on those that'd be appreciated up in the booth.

So let's look at the chicken coop.

Which is so this is the chicken coop.

This is the outside run.

This is inside the coop.

They are contained to the run.

They are not free roaming throughout the backyard.

So this is the chicken coop run area.

This is the surrounding area of the chicken coop.

And this is our sheds that we have, the two pre-existing aluminum sheds.

That's the separation from the wall.

And this is the patio cover two that we are asking for.

It's kind of a far distance of a picture, but that's the best that I could do.

Okay.

Can you comment on the number of chickens?

Number of hens, number of roosters.

Are they pets or are they for eggs?

Or do you eat them?

Uh and what's the smell?

So like we had originally we had 15.

Um, the rooster that we did have, whenever we got them from tractor supply, they were supposed to be all sex two hens, but one of them popped out to be a rooster.

During our first season of the molting, I separated the rooster from the chickens to allow them to regrow their feathers, and he initially passed away.

So the rooster is no longer on the property, and we have had a couple of casualties as well from the heat with the hens.

I do have a mister system throughout the coop area, but some of them don't like to leave the coop, they want to sit on the eggs.

So unfortunately, we had have two of them pass away.

We are down to 12 hens total on the property.

And so it's more for eggs, not for eating the chickens.

No, sir.

We they're they're not meat birds, they are egg layers, and they are more.

I mean, they're an emotional support animal as well.

When one of them passed away, it was one of my younger daughters, and she was devastated for a week.

They do supply us eggs that we do initially.

I do give out to my neighbors as well.

I don't just keep all of the eggs because they do produce a decent amount.

All right, and what do you uh use shed A and shed B for?

Oh, right now we're just storing our personal effects in it, so we don't have to get a storage because the storage that was like 150 dollars a month, and they kept going up almost 20 dollars a month on us by the time it was six months in, it was almost 250 dollars for a little 10 by 15.

So I just can afford to continue to use that storage anymore.

So that is they are packed with our one is um my lawn and garden supplies, and the other one are more mementos from our childhood.

All right.

Yeah, thank you, madam chair.

I yield back to you.

Commissioner Reutman.

This is for staff, excuse me.

This is for staff.

Is there a recommended amount of chickens?

I mean, I I'm probably I'm pretty much in I'm okay with what's going on here.

I would think maybe we would want to cap the amount of chickens that were there.

Um I don't know what that number is exactly.

Um maybe also a review in case the neighbors turn out that they don't love this after some amount of time, but is staff.

Is there a number that we might base this on?

Commissioner Reuteman, we do not have a preferred number uh that we could base a potential condition that the planning commission may uh impose.

However, Title 30 a lot a maximum permissible number of 10 small livestock or 10 chickens uh that would be permissible on the subject property not to exceed a maximum of five roosters per breed.

So right now the gentleman uh indicated he has 12 hens, so you can cap it at 12 if that's the desire of the commission.

And and the the number 10 would include both hens and roosters with a maximum of five roosters specifically, is that right?

That's correct.

So he would be exceeding the allotted number of small livestock by two.

If if it were me, in order to not force your daughter to lose any more of her hens, I might consider capping it at 10 without requiring that they get rid of two, but if you lose another two that we don't bring it back up to 12.

Um I make a comment.

Sure.

I don't plan on getting any more livestock or any more animals to this property, and to address your concerns about smell, they do make a powder that we do put throughout the coop and throughout the chicken run that absorbs some of the moisture and it gives it whatever smell we want.

Right now it is currently a pumpkin spice smell, and they make pellets as well that absorb a lot of the moisture and smell, so it is not imposing on any of our neighbors.

Yeah, and I you know, I sometimes people have hobbies and they start off taking myself included.

Man, I had a garden, uh, that garden is gone because of the heat and everything else, and I lost a little interest.

So I would say that if if things start deteriorating there, then we might want a mechanism that a neighbor could file a complaint and say, hey, some there's a problem.

Go ahead.

Commissioner Reutemann, I apologize for clarification purposes.

This is uh within the urban area, so he's in the not allowed any chickens at all.

Therefore, that's what necessitated a use permit.

Correct.

Right.

So he's in the but where does the 10 number the 10 number would be in a rural area?

That's yes, in the non-urban area.

That's correct.

Understood, and thank you for the clarification.

I might still, if we were gonna allow this to happen, peg our number at what they would allow in a rural area.

But that that's just my thought, or maybe less.

Maybe let maybe it's less because of its thank you.

Can I make one more comment, please?

So I've been dealing with this since uh 2024, and since then it has the coop has deteriorated since I have had to move it a couple of times to get it within compliance of setbacks.

So it has kind of fallen apart a little bit, but I did not want to invest any more time or money into the coop if I didn't know if I was gonna be able to keep them or not.

But if I do get approved, I do plan on revamping the area and making it more appealing to the eye.

It's not gonna have the tarp as a roof, it's not gonna have it is gonna look presentable any commissioner Kularski.

This is in your area.

Yep.

Hi.

Hello, madam, madam chair.

Can I just speak before Commissioner Calarski goes?

I apologize, Commissioner Fraser.

Please go on.

That's okay.

That's okay.

So I can support the application.

I agree with Commissioner Reichmann that we should do a cap.

Um I'm I'm okay with the 10, or if they want to go, if we want to go down for further, like six or eight, I would be okay with that as well.

And again, I can support the application and with a review, something like two years.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sorry, I just want to keep on taking away.

Commissioner Brady.

So this is city more, so it's or non-rural, so this the actual number is zero.

Um so I think what in my opinion, and I I really like what you were going with, is let's phase it down.

So get it phased down so just no replenishing until I would say even a lower number, maybe maybe it's five or or zero.

Um, but just in the replacing factor of it, but that's just my opinion.

I I always had chickens, I loved them, and so it's really neat.

Thank you.

Hi.

Hello, ma'am.

I got a long history with chickens.

My daughter raises them in another state, so the rules are different.

Uh we've had a lot of chickens in district E.

I don't normally approve in the R in the RS5.

I don't normally do it.

But what I'm looking at after you answer me a couple of questions, is you said the sheds have been there previously.

I understand you're a renter.

Yes, ma'am.

Okay, and you've been in your property.

I listened to the tape of the tow board meeting.

Okay.

I've been in there for five years.

Yes, ma'am.

As soon as Ms.

Ponce had bought the property, she spent a few months renovating it, and as soon as it was able for me to move in, I immediately moved into the party.

Okay, so you've been there for five years.

Okay, you've also, as I heard, had the chickens for two years approximately.

A little more than two years.

They I this started in early 2024.

Whenever we got the chickens, so by June of 2024 is when I started actually developing and building the chicken coop.

And then I was reported not for this incident, but because I had a garden in my front yard and I had construction material and you had outside storage.

Yes.

So and it just spiraled into this.

I didn't want to lie to Miss Perez, the code enforcement officer, when she asked me if I had a chicken coop, I was honest with her and let her know.

Yes, ma'am, it is a chicken coop.

Only because I thought I was in compliance because of everything that I read online.

Unfortunately, I didn't know that it was all wrong.

Unfortunately.

Okay.

Uh you sent you you brought the letters and you did what town board did.

How big is your chicken coop?

Because they have to be a certain size in order for the X number of birds.

Yes, so it is a 10 by 10, uh a hundred square feet, roughly.

Okay, and how long is your run?

Uh that is the 10 by 10.

So the chicken coop is an actual 10 by 4 by 4, and then the chicken run is a 10 by 10 by 10.

10 by 10 by 10.

And the and the actual coupe is four by four, you said?

Four, it's four feet tall by four feet wide by ten feet long.

So it goes to the full length of the coop, and it's tall enough for me to bend over and get in there and a good enough depth to allow them to have plenty of space.

Okay.

My thoughts on this, okay, is um what I would like to do, and and you don't have a rooster.

No, ma'am, no more.

Okay.

Don't plan on getting another one.

Uh I know that that birds live from five to ten years, depending on the breed.

I also know that after two years their egg produ production starts to decrease.

Yes.

Okay, I know I know all of that.

So my plan is to go ahead and approve this with a couple of conditions.

And let me know if you're okay with it before I make my motion.

There will be no roosters.

You can keep your 12.

However, as they die off, they will not be replaced until you are down to, and I hate to say zero because you should never have less than three.

Understandable.

Okay.

There's social.

When if you have two, one dies, the other one is gonna die very quickly.

But I I want you just to gradually go down because you should not allow to have that.

I guess my question is to Rob is with that condition of no replacement, when we approve something like this use permit, it goes with the land and it stays with the land.

Does that mean that if he moves and the next people come in, they have the ability to keep the chick or have chickens down there?

Yeah, generally uh zoning approvals run with the land, but with the review, I think you can review it and you can see where where they're at, and then you can adjust the uh the approval and the conditions of approval.

Okay, because I would like to to say that the the chickens will not be replaced until we get down to zero, and then there will be no more.

Right.

Well, that that that would the condition would run with the the approval and run with the land, yes.

Okay.

So I mean you would enforce it, I think, with a review because you're gonna come back with the review so you can see if how many chickens he has in a year or two from now, and then you can just kind of keep monitoring it until he has no more.

Okay, so then my make sure that I'm saying this right, then if you would.

My motion would be to approve UC26-0322 with the following conditions: no roosters and no replacements of uh chickens, hens.

Okay.

Uh when they die off, they die off.

Yes, ma'am.

Okay.

I don't plan on renting the property for another three years anyway.

I do plan on getting my own.

Okay, and then we'll do a review in three years, then.

And I don't know what you're gonna do with the chickens in in three years.

You're gonna have to find a place that has 10,000 square feet, because I think you're allowed at that one, depending on where it's at.

There's a spike decrease.

So if you want if you want to move your chickens.

Okay, there's a motion on the floor, please, Cassie wrote.

Commissioner Frazier, yes.

That motion passes.

And please remember the conditions that were placed.

Thank you.

Thank you all very much.

We appreciate your time.

This is final action, unless appealed.

Next is item number 14.

WS can 260307 waiver development standards to reduce setback for proposed success rebuilding D chech garage in conjunction with an existing single family residence on 0.81 acres in an RS20 residential single family 20 zone, generally located south of Helena Avenue and west of Pioneer Way within Lone Mountain.

Good evening.

Please state your name and address for the record.

Good evening, Commissioners.

Uh Darrell Lane, 7425 Helene Avenue.

Um here to ask uh permission for uh waiver to finally try to build the detached garage to store all my old cars and uh RV, so the weather doesn't keep deteriorating everything here.

Um as you can see right here turn it the right way for you.

The garage doors would be right here, and so the setback.

If I put the garage closer back, and I have another picture I'll show you.

I'll move that one over.

That one's a little more clear for you real time.

Um if I move the garage back, uh I have an existing power line from Minvy Energy that comes there and it won't give me the height.

And if I try to put that under line uh underground, I got a quote and it's upwards of 20,000.

That it's my wife and I, we've been trying to save to do this for six years, and I finally I should have done it then because it would have been half the price, but um you know, four kids and I got two kids racing out the speedway.

It's it's a lot, but if I um were to try to move it back, the garage door accesses are right here, so if I pulled in my yard, I'd be able to pull my RV in.

Um if I move it back, then the garage doors are blocked.

Um I got another kind of picture for you guys if you can see that.

Basically, this house was built, I think, in the 70s, so I kind of got um didn't have my pick on where they put the house, and it it kind of didn't give me room on either side, or the house was kind of put right in the middle of the property.

So it I've laid this out multiple times, trying to get it to work, and everything is within county code as far as the the height, the size, it's gonna match the existing house, everything's gonna be painted, stuccoed to match.

Um so everything else is within code.

Uh just trying to get it to where it would fit on the property.

And this is just showing from the street view.

There's 20 feet of the easement, so it's not necessarily you know, right up close to block anything from the road or the site.

Um and the houses just on this side that are city now, they're I think they're about 15 feet, they're not they're on the corner also.

They're I think they're about 15 feet, they're they're on the corner, also.

Um then I just took another photo just to kind of show that when you're up here at the stop sign, there's actually no obstruction for the for traffic safety or anything.

And then this is just kind of like a generic view of kind of what it would look like.

Just try to do my best on on making it like that.

And I did I did get all my neighbors that are on my whole entire street and the two neighbors that are right out in front of me.

Um they all signed and nobody on my whole entire street had a problem with it.

Um same with uh I believe at the the town hall.

Um I had a lot of support, and I've been in that neighborhood 20 years and just get along with all my neighbors.

So I wouldn't put anything bad there that they didn't like and open up to any questions.

Does that conclude your presentation?

Yes, ma'am.

We are now going to open public comments for this item.

If anybody has anything to discuss regarding this item, can you please come to the front?

Seeing no one, we will close public comments and I will ask my commissioners if they have any questions.

Commissioner Reutman, I think it looks good.

I uh glad your neighbors approve of it.

That's pretty important to us up here.

Um, if your neighbors hated it, I think I'd be thinking about it differently.

But um I'm interested to hear what the rest of the commissioners have to say.

But the approvals from the town board and the approvals from your neighbors, I think that that speaks to me.

So thank you.

Commissioner Rady, this is your item.

All right.

So um I think you uh spoke a little bit because uh I'm pretty usually a pretty stickler on this type of stuff, but I think that um what you're doing here.

I think it looks good.

Um I do see a couple things where it kind of makes you do it the way that you're doing it.

Um so for me, um, I am uh going to make a motion to approve.

Um where is my number?

It is um WS260307.

Um as the plants are presented.

There's a motion on the floor, please guess your vote.

Commissioner Frazier.

Commissioner Frazier, yes.

That motion passes.

Good luck.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Have a good night.

This is final action unless appealed.

Next is item 15.

WS 260323 waiver development standards for the following: one increase fence height and two allow non-decorative wall in conjunction with an existing single family residence on 0.46 acres in an RS20 residential single family 20 zone, generally located north of Hellman Avenue and east of Yarum Street within Paradise.

Good evening.

Can you please give us your name and address for the record and tell us about your item?

How are you doing?

My name is Damian Roderick.

I'm the owner of the property, 4354 Hellman Avenue.

Um brought packets.

If everybody would some of the stuff is colored too, so that might help.

I just went to another major meeting.

I think last week, they approved it.

Or yeah, they approved it.

So good evening, commissioners.

My name is Damian Roderick.

I'm requesting approval for the existing fence at 4354 Hellman Avenue.

The fence was constructed to address privacy and security uh concerns from my family and clients during my career in the entertainment industry.

Since becoming aware of the needed for approval, I have worked with the Clark County staff, various departments, and surrounding neighbors.

The adjacent property owners uh support the request as shown in the letters included in your packets.

The fence has not negative negatively impacted the neighborhood and comp uh comprehensive planning recommended approval.

I respectfully request that the commission approve this application, and thank you very much.

Does that complete your presentation?

Um I've been working on this since I bought the house.

I uh talked to my neighbors when I put the gate up.

They all loved it.

The property value went up.

I deal with so many different uh entertainment entertainers and clients.

I'm involved with the uh MBA summer league that just left.

I'm heavily involved with UNL V.

My brother played for UNLV.

Uh Vegas has been like my second home forever.

And when I put the gate up, it was mainly for my clients.

They don't always like to be in the hotel, so they come to my house, they know they're secure.

And then when my fiance is there with my kids, I'm back and forth to LA.

And uh we have a park that's on the corner, you know, the homeless, and uh my neighbors told me it was some robberies when I first got over there.

I was a business owner in the boulevard mall, had a store.

I was followed home one time, and so I put the gate up and you know, just protect myself and protect my family and protect my clients.

Okay, thank you.

That's it.

Yes, okay.

We are now going to open this for public comments.

If anyone has a discussion on this item, can you please come to the front?

I see no one.

We will close public comments, and I will ask uh my commissioners should they have any questions, Commissioner Kurarski.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Um what are the materials that you're using that for the fence?

Say it one more time.

What are the materials?

What is that red material?

That's wood.

Wood?

Yes, wood.

Wood and then iron support and then the concrete blocks.

Yeah, the concrete pilasters, okay.

Yes.

Uh, and it's I'm trying to because I didn't really yeah, all electrical.

I've taken care of all electrical permits, those have been paid.

Um I had four different officers through this whole process.

And every time I got through the process, I would go down to the building, and I finally got this one lady that told me about the waiver and everything else.

And uh I had a originally I got fined one time, I paid that fine right away.

And then this commit this officer I have now, Officer Williams.

We've been working great together.

I've been turning everything in, and I haven't had a problem.

My neighbors love it.

They're actually improving their houses and stuff throughout the neighborhood.

Okay, okay.

But but what I want to ask is because I'm trying to figure out what I'm looking at.

Okay.

I see your front gate.

Yes.

And then I see the block walls that are to it.

Yes.

And then we go, and then we go to the wood.

Am I correct?

The wood slates in the middle.

Yeah, and that and that is how long in front.

The pieces in front?

It's all the way around.

All the wood goes from here to here.

How long is that?

Uh because when I look at this last picture, which I think is taken from inside your property.

With the golf course, yeah.

Is that is what that fence is that adjacent to the street.

That's my neighbor's gate.

So my neighbor to my my right, they had a wall that was shattered, destroyed, and everything else.

And that with those palm trees, that's my neighbor's house on the other side of that.

Okay.

So the the wood, I I don't know off the top of my head how long those pieces of wood.

I'm just wondering how long that fence is.

Yeah, they have impact.

I'm just wondering because that's where the front is.

Each section probably seems like A.

They're probably two by four space.

It just is Hellman.

I think right here it says I I just what I don't want to see is I I guess I'm just trying to take some look at a breakup so it doesn't look like it's all a fortress or whatever.

Uh in my neighborhood, we had one where the guy just put a bunch of brick, it was all uh the whole wall was just brick.

Yeah, it was a cement, and and it it just wasn't good, and he wound up putting little holes.

This one isn't too bad.

Well, mine is and there's slats, am I correct?

Yes, there's they're wood slats, yes.

Okay, okay, thank you.

You answered my questions, yes.

And I have access for packages.

I put the mailbox in that center.

That's sorry about that.

That center situation, and they told me I couldn't, so I left the original mailbox.

I have my drop box.

Um I've also talked to a couple police officers in my neighborhood and let them know when I do have a celebrity client comes by, they've beefed up the patrol for me and everything else, and they like that.

They like the gate.

So thank you.

You're welcome.

Commissioner Kirk.

Thank you.

Uh this is in my district.

Uh just a couple of things.

Now, one of the reasons we don't you don't see this uh typically is because we like our yards to be open.

We I mean, up and down your street, you can see the front yards of your neighbors.

Uh your home is the only one I can see on Google Earth where I I can't see your front of your house, you know straight through.

Yeah, yeah.

And that's uh believe it or not, uh that one of the things that uh the police like when they talk about security, they like to be able to see into people's yards in case people are you know in there doing bad things, they can jump the fence and hide behind the fence and not seen from the street.

So I think it cuts both ways.

One on one sense it gives you privacy, and on the other sense, I'm not so sure it's as secure as I mean uh you're an athletic guy, obviously.

I bet you could hop that fence in your younger day, no problem, right?

Back in the day, I'm an ex-basketball player.

Perfect example.

My neighbors next to me, they're elderly.

Their alarm went off for the last couple days because they've been traveling.

I kid you not, maybe 10 police cars pulled up.

My neighbor across from me, uh, one of those papers that he signed, he's ex-LAPD.

He doesn't have any cameras.

So when I leave, he watches my house.

When he leaves, I watch his house.

But the 10 police cars that lined up, he let me know.

He's like, There's 10 police cars in front of your house.

I'm like, okay.

So I went out, spoke, you know, spoke to the police.

And if you look, you know, the the pictures might show the slats kind of closer than they really are.

But if you walk to my gate, you can look through any of those slats and see straight through and see everything that you need to see.

It's not they're not all connected.

Maybe the picture is showing it, but there's probably about that much that you can see directly front of the house, side of the house, where my cars, you can see everything.

Because I I was speaking to the police officers that were dealing with the incident next door, straight to the slats.

I didn't even have to come out.

And the uh the other uh thing I wanted to mention if you you saying your neighbors are liking it.

Uh I would recommend that your neighbors make sure they get the proper permits prior to building.

That way they one they're not in the same position you situation you're in where you've already built it.

Right.

It makes it difficult for us as a citizen board uh to look at something like this where a citizen has spent thousands of dollars, I think, in building 75,000.

And then they build it and they go, Well, I didn't know.

Yeah, and so that puts us in a bad position because we're like, well, do we approve it?

The one nice thing you do have going for you is you have your two neighbors to either side and your neighbor across the street who have signed the document saying that they're okay with it.

I think that goes a long ways.

Thank you.

Here uh and and so um and one of those neighbors that signed it, he started building, and I went across the street and told him to stop.

He better get a permit.

Yeah, I told him jump on it now.

See, that's the thing that happens.

Yeah, one guy does it, and then the next guy does it, and they all say, Well, he did it, and then he didn't get a permit, and he did it, and then the next guy, so you can see that causes a problem for us.

Of course, because where do we stop?

Of course.

Where do we say, okay, we're not gonna allow it anymore?

We did it for you, we're gonna do it for you, and so there's a bit of we want to make sure we treat everyone equally and we're fair across the board.

Yeah, he and he, like I said, I went across, I told him everywhere I went to get all my stuff, and he's been doing that process.

And you said, and you said to him, don't do as I do, do as I say.

Well, like I said, he was excited when I started and seeing my process because he probably has more classic cars than I do.

And I seen him start putting up the concrete walls, and when he started getting to the middle part, I told him you better come to the spelling.

Yeah, get on top of it early.

I think if he comes, if we see him in another year, we're gonna call you down.

Yeah, I guess I won't be signing his paper as a yeah, you better sign his.

I told him not to do it.

That's what you should decide.

All right.

Um, like I said, it makes it difficult for us to to ask someone to tear it down or to make major modifications once it's built.

If your neighbor's okay with it, you think it's okay.

The one thing I was gonna have a problem with is if this was an Airbnb, I was going to deny it.

Not own it.

But since it's you're living there and that your residence and you're there, I'm okay with it.

So I will make a motion to approve item 15 WS 260323.

Um yeah, with no review period, just it's my motion.

There's a motion on the floor, please cast your vote.

Commissioner Fraser, yes.

That motion carries.

Good luck.

Thank you.

Appreciate your time.

This is final action unless appealed.

Next on your agenda are public comments.

Are you here for an item?

Oh, you're just here to Okay, thank you.

What about you?

Are you here for an item?

No, okay.

Last uh public comments.

No public comments.

We will close public comments and we will adjourn the meeting.

Thank you.

Good night, everybody.
