Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. If we could please have our Spanish interpretation services statement. Hi, uh, good afternoon, everyone. When a star desert, but I informarles que si I already escuchar esta junta in Espanyol, would they acercarse a recoger los dispositivos and la cabina que sta in l'entrada? Muchas gracias. Thank you. Thank you. All right. My name is John Bustamante, and I am the chair of the zoning commission of the City of San Antonio, as well as the District 5 zoning commissioner. The time is 101. I hereby call this regularly noticed meeting of the City of San Antonio Zoning Commission into session. I'd like to do roll call by having the zoning commissioners introduce themselves, starting with the commissioner on my far left. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Marco Barrosa, District 9. Daniel Callum, District 1. John Witsett, District 10. George Anohosa, District 3. Eddie Reyes, District 4. Kinhuit, District 6. Janelle Chase, Mayor's Office. All right. Staff is a quorum present. Yes, the quorum is present. All right. Thank you so much. If everyone would please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. To the Republic for which it stands. All right. Before we begin our hearings, I would like staff to please review our meeting format for the benefit of those in the audience. Staff, if you would. Before I begin, I request that everyone please turn off your phones or put them on vibrate. The zoning commission is an 11-member body appointed by the city council to make recommendations on zoning cases. Upon receiving a recommendation from the commission, you will have six months from the date of the commission's recommendation to forward your case to City Council. If you have any questions regarding this procedure, please contact your case manager. Staff will begin each case with a short presentation of the request. Part of the presentation includes a map that shows the area to be considered for rezoning and property within 200 feet of the subject property. Check marks will indicate those property owners in favor of the request, and an X will indicate those property owners in opposition. Following this presentation and any questions by the commission, the applicant will present their request. For those that have signed up to speak for or against the proposed rezoning, you will be called in the order that you are signed up to speak. Those in support and opposition will be allowed a maximum of two minutes to speak. And you are not obligated to utilize the maximum time limitation. You will be informed that your two minutes are up. For those that would like to give their time to another speaker, that speaker will be allowed a maximum of two people giving their time a total of six minutes. Those giving up their time must be present and signed in to speak. And please announce that when that speaker is going up the podium that you are yielding your time. The applicant then will be given an opportunity for rebuttal limited to one speaker with a three-minute time limit, along with an opportunity to address commissioner questions. Thank you, Chair. All right, thank you so much.
