Travis Madison for New Albany Floyd County School Corporation request a primary and secondary plat approval for a two-lot subdivision and a mixed density residential district at 1464 slate run road. Do you have any copies of these that we have? I've got to say more than six. The three of us can probably find a little bit early as you repeat that. Mr. Chairman, I'll just let you know too. My name is Kyle Lindu. I'm here on behalf of the Superintendent Travis Madison, also administrator in the uh Welvin Toy County School District. All right. We're we're basically what the school system has done several years ago. We purchased this land in the hopes of keeping the door open for any kind of expansion, uh changing the entrance to Slate Run Road, making sure that parking or traffic flow is always in order. What we've decided to do is to take the two plots and divide them equally in half and then use the the Easterly plot to uh build a house for uh prosper for education students and sell that house off once completed. The house will be 1460 square foot on a slab. Uh it will meet the zoning and planning uh requirements. Um Mr. Siegel's helped us with that, and uh the process students hope to have that done within the year. Okay. Uh the house that's there now, is it gonna remain or are you gonna tear it down? Great question. Uh we do have a demo permit. We've already applied for and received that. Our heavy equipment program, we will tear that down, remove it from the site, grade the land, uh, restore the land, and then uh we'll start the project to build the new house.
