Next is the Ramsey Development Projects.

LLC request a one-year extension for the Cattleman's BLVD.

Kevin, you got that?

Yes, thank you.

Um the Ramsey development out there known as the Farms at Boulevard.

Um that particular section of Cattleman's Boulevard has reached its two-year period uh to be completed.

It still lacks a punch list.

However, uh they are available.

Um it's available to them to ask for a one-year extension per ordinance.

And they would like to do so.

Uh request that we do have in writing uh formal request from uh Miss Tracy Blevins uh representing uh the clients, and uh they are requesting that one year extension for Cattleman's Boulevard.

Uh that is surrounded by an approved final plant.

It is recorded, and uh if they are granted uh the one-year extension, then they would be free and clear of our punch list and and targeting our overdue subdivisions, but uh they're by no means in any trouble or anything.

Uh they they have formally asked for an extension and they can do so.

And we'll cause any problems.

No, it uh it won't cause any trouble.

Uh essentially there there's no lots.

So, you know, if if there were lots associated with the final plat, you know, and and a business on site the uh where the public would generate traffic flow and things of that nature, it it would make sense to to uh consider it, but in this case it's it's uh glorified driveway uh to nowhere.

And uh we do have uh the approved development plan for New Island Boulevard that will break ground very shortly.

So a lot of the uh construction traffic uh would be utilizing that road.

However, we did discuss an alternative construction entrance uh when that project starts, so it would not be on this street since it's under sub-base.

Okay, I think your wrestling partners might have tagged in over there.

If I may another piece of this is I've been working with the property owner and the developer out of Atlanta, and they don't want to do the final covering of asphalt because it may be used for construction entrance.

The other piece of it is the roundabout project at Goggins Lane and Barnes Mill is currently in the state budget.

Of course, you know they're in session, they'll be out April 15th.

The developer out of uh Atlanta, if you quay wants to make sure that money is in the budget April 15th before they sign the lease for the box store and the three out parcels.

So they're kind of waiting for that to happen, and then they will sign the lease, they'll be committed to the box store in three out parcels, and you'll see dirt moving pretty quick out there.

So I feel like a one-year extension is fair in this case because there's really nothing beyond Catalans, you know, there's no lots, there's no nothing to build until that lease gets signed and gets started.
