Good evening, everyone.

Uh, and welcome to the April twenty-fourth, twenty twenty-five uh meeting of the Greenville Board of Adjustment.

My name is Donald Phillips, I'm assistant city attorney and counsel to the board.

Uh tonight, uh we are here in City Hall Council Chambers two hundred West Fifth Street, Greenville, North Carolina.

Before we begin, we do have a quorum of six members.

Uh, but just like last meeting, we will need to hold a special election for the office of chair pro Tim and for Vice Chair Pro Tim.

And again, the reason why we need the chair and vice chair is because in case the chair needs to excuse himself or herself uh for the uh any matter tonight, the vice chair would need to step in.

So what I will do is uh ask at this time for a roll call, uh, Madam Clerk if uh uh we can have a roll call um of all of the members.

Ryan Pertle, Carol Bass, Jermaine McNair.

Simon Swain.

Here, Nicholas White, here, Clayton Sill, McKenzie Burns present, Jeremy Jordan.

Here, and William McCurdy.

Okay, and so we will begin by holding the uh special election for the chair pro Tim.

Again, this follows uh the following process I will call for nominations, nominations will be made, no second is required.

I will repeat the nomination and and ask for further nominations.

After no more nominations are forthcoming, I will declare that the nominations are closed.

After the nominations are closed, the board will proceed to start voting with the first nominee.

When there is more than one nominee, the board votes in the order in which the nominees were nominated.

As soon as one of the nominees receives a majority vote, I will declare him or her elected, and no votes will be taken on the remaining nominees for that office.

Nominations are now in order for the office of chair pro tem for the purposes of tonight's meeting.

Are there any nominations?

I'm sorry.

Attorney Phillips.

Yes.

Do you have any instruction on seniority level or anything, or is everyone So for purposes excuse me, for purposes of that, uh typically you would go for the seniority and and that's an excellent point, uh, Mr.
