Good evening, Lisa Salb 434 Madison Street. My first comment is that when the Plan Commission approved it, it had a zoning map that was dated March 25th, 2026. And what you are voting, well, hopefully not voting on tonight is a map that's dated for 1726. So apparently it's not the same map. And when you go to look up that file, it says that this record is no longer available, so you can't even compare what the two are. I did notice on the map that was presented on the agenda that there is a historic overlay, which is missing, and that is the one that is on the historic Blair property. It's missing off of the lower half that was put on the Madison Street Historic District on the National Register in 1990. In 1994, the city council uh put a special district H on it, which is a historic overlay. Um it does say that the description is the legal description, which is on the second page, and that does describe the property going from Randall Street all the way down to Delafield Street, and now that is missing. Um part of this is what is uh in court right now, but I wanted to make that um aware, make you aware of that. And then also um there's a there's an issue. I have spoke with six people from District 11, and they're concerned that they haven't had representation to talk with their elder person about this new zoning code since the last meeting. Um they are on Pleasant Street, Main Street, College, Maple, um, and uh and a couple others. If you want their names, I can ask them if they're they're willing to give that, but they have not had representation.
