The minutes are approved by a vote of six to zero with Commissioner Schwartz abstaining. Uh we have three items on our agenda, and I'm going to just read through all three of them. Uh we have a use permit to allow a two-story single family residence for 21 West 9th Street. We have a use permit for the addition of a second story to the Haas residence at 321 East Taylor Street, and we have a use permit to allow resale items, donated school or office supplies for treasures for teachers located at 3025 South 48th Street, suite 101, all in Tempe. Uh, it is the intention of the Commission to place all three of these cases on our consent agenda. The purpose of the consent agenda is so that we can vote in favor of all of those items in one single vote. Um, I'd look to the public to see if there's anyone here in attendance who wish to have any of these three cases heard and removed from the consent agenda. Staff, if you can help me if we've got anybody that's reached out. I don't see anything coming.
