The Board of Zoning Appeals met on June 25, 2026, but due to the absence of Vice Chair Henry Schmeisky (illness) and another member (vacation), the board lacked a quorum to conduct regular public hearings. Only four members were present, one of whom (board member current) joined remotely and could only participate in the consent calendar. The chair announced that all pending public hearing items (items 25 and beyond) would be rescheduled as soon as possible, with notice provided to applicants. The consent calendar was approved unanimously.
Okay. Welcome everybody. Sorry for the late start. You have a unique situation tonight. Our vice chair Henry Schmeisky, who's not doing well and had to leave, which leaves us. We only have four members tonight because another member was on vacation. We've gotten her on the fall. Raw. And she's going to be able to help us with a very small portion of our meeting tonight, which is the administrative consent agenda. These items are items that you're. Can you get a better? Not really. Are you turned as your mic on? Uh it wasn't. The one in front of me was not, but I think this one is. Um, so I apologize to everyone. Uh, we're gonna try to reschedule the public hearings as quickly as possible. Um, because we know these items are important, but we do need to have four board members to have a quorum. Uh, we have we can do we can help us out from uh abroad and for verification to do the consent agenda and we'll get everything else rescheduled as soon as we possibly can. Um the consent agenda is a number of items that will be read in order. There are recommendations made by the city departments. If anyone is here for one of those items and wishes for it to be pulled from the consent agenda and put on for public hearing, uh we can do that, but otherwise, what we're gonna have to have Madam Secretary do after we do a roll call is to read off these items and the recommended dispositions by city departments and the board can vote on them, and then as I indicated, we'll have to adjourn the uh items 25 through the balance of the uh hearing and get those rescheduled as promptly as we can. It may not be on a standard uh third standard Thursday. We'll find them we can get a room and we'll get notice out and we'll reach out uh to all the applicants to make sure you guys know. So I apologize, but things do happen. Can't believe it hasn't happened yet in my tenure uh because you know people get sick, but thank you for your patience, and um we can uh start by calling the rule. All right, board member St. Arnold Bell here, board member Rocker here, board member current. Here, Vice Chairman Samyski, he's excused, and Chairman Lomberg. And here. So we do have our four. We can do uh the business that we've just discussed, so I'll have madam secretary read off the consent agenda. Item number one, 516 North Hopkins Street, a condition modification request.
