Thank you.
Poundy. Ordinance.
Okay, wait. We are going to start.
Okay.
That's a good news. Welcome to the Bay St. Louis Planning and Zoning meeting on September 9, 2026. Even though there are few people here, everyone is trying to keep their phones in silent mode. Since there are few people today, we don't have to worry about sign-up. We have taken care of that. There are a few things in the agenda. Some are delayed, but we can get there in a few minutes. Let's start with prayer. Let's continue to pray. Okay. Amen. I pledge allegiance to the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, and to a nation that is free and just to all who are not deprived of the glory of God. Let us have a promise to accept the minutes of August 12, 2026. A promise to accept. Yes, they are on the phone. Mr. Osborne has passed the exam. Can anyone pass? Mr. Rohr is passing. Yes. Oh, who are the participants? I, I, okay. The exam is passed. Okay.
Yes, then the next two. We are going to October.
Yes. We are moving to the meeting on the 14th. That is, the two major site plan reviews.
That is, Trifecta and then Keenan.
Yes.
That's why.
According to our first action, Mr. Commissioner Osborne will be removed from it. So, let's take a look at it in minutes. Okay. The first request is the Osborne request for the zoning ordinance submitted by Andrew Osborne. The applicant needs 14% of the zoning ordinance and an agreement of 64% of the main building. This building is located in 218 Colcourt. This is in the 61 Single Family Zone. According to our law, you are allowed to build an apartment building that is 50% larger than the main building. This is not a fixed building. Mr. Osborne's house is at 1800 square feet. Or about 1800 square feet. They need a shed that is 1200 square feet wide. So they need 14% difference. So 50% is about 64% instead of 50%. Ummah Many of our residents have called. They have no objection to this. The Osborne family lives at the end of Kaldisak, so we are happy to accept this. And there is plenty of space. At the end, the things to be kept in their shed are lying empty. So he has made a good site plan. Instead of 30 by 30 sheds, it will be 30 by 40 sheds. So can anything else be added to this?
Footprint is as much as we can afford. That's why the difference we need is not visible at all. It will be the same to see. I talked to all the tourists. I had made a knife for the people on my street. Can you see it? Yes. Can we see it? I will read the names to come to the record, and then I will change it. Okay. Mr. Osborne made a common knife and gave it to many.
One feels like Chris Stokes. Stoker. Shady. Stoker. And Michelle Seal, Cody Seal, Robert Manton or Morton, and Robert Colbold Jr., Stacey Pets, Sarah Hampton. They are all members of his club.
Yes. Everyone on the street is in it. Oh, the whole street?
Everyone who can see this.
That's it. Okay. Let's put that aside.
This will be like this, right? Or, okay. Okay. Can I do motion and second? Because I'm the only one.
No, no. We have friends to do it. You can do it alone. You can. Then I'll do motion.
Okay. We agree. Mr. Robert gave you a motion. Will you get a second person? Is it Dean or Clark?
Okay. Mr. Brain got the second point from Mr. Brain. Everyone who agrees. Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. Motion passed for 4 votes. We didn't have anything to talk about. You came a little late, Ms. Anita. It's nothing personal. Mr. Osborne, can you sit down? Let Ms. Anita speak. This is nothing personal. You came a little late. I think I came here and agreed to both. There are a few questions. I don't have anything in particular. I came to talk to Ms. Mondi. They talk about things like this. You call this a shed? Is this an accessory carpet?
No, this is an accessory construction.
Okay, this is just a construction. This is not a carpet. That's what we need. It's a big problem. Then we are talking about building a big shed in this thing. Yes. Okay, that's what I was sure about. I wasn't sure if we were talking about a carpet or a construction. Okay, I got it. Then I don't have a problem with this. Thank you. Okay, thank you, mister. It sounds like a good man cave to hear. Okay, let's move forward with our promise. We have voted for this. But let me tell you something. The council meeting is in 30 minutes after 9, 1, 5, 2 p.m. Everyone here, remember to participate in the council meeting or pay attention to it. Okay, let's move on to the next. Next, Dayal. Can anyone bring Mr. Osborne back? Oh, sure. Wait a minute. We will inform you that Mr. Osborne has arrived. Okay. Mr. Osborne has arrived after 5 hours and 37 minutes. Jeremy.
Okay. Next applicant, Dale. The difference in the zoning ordinance submitted by James Dale is that an 85% difference in the size of the main building should be allowed to build an accessory building. AHA Parcel No. 139B Poojam AHA Poojam 5 2 Dashaamsham Poojam Poojam Poojam Poojam Vastu Sonar 1A This is the same case. But Mr. Osborne's house was 1,800 square feet. This is a Vasathi, 84. Aha, 8 square feet. Therefore, only half of it can be allowed. What he is trying to build is a necessary structure, but it will be a carport for his boats as a base. That is, I have not included it, but this is 85%. That is, under 600 square feet. Okay, 25 times 30. Aha. He has a lot of knives. If you look at the pocket, I have hidden it. The knives are next to him. He has a dark plot there. Oh, it's close to the canal, so I can't close it. Oh, so it's on the ground floor. Instead of a boat lying on his lap, an open carport with two boats is placed. Um. It's a good idea to accept this as soon as possible. Oh, and there were pins and needles for this. If you want to move forward, the pins hidden in it.
Can you read those names quickly? Um. Tim Dennis Edmondson. That's next to him. They are on the street.
Diane Brown, who lives on the street, is 50 and 53 years old.
Yes, they are two houses away. Then her husband and his brother own the place next to you. Yes, I got a text message from him, but I didn't get a letter. Larry Holoman, he lives in your next house. The next house on the left.
Um, is that Barbara Jr. and Barbara Graham?
Right on the side of the street. You think you've got the whole of the street. Yes, I left the one who lives in Meridian. I haven't seen them. They are on the side of a house. But, Richard Willow, Wilkinson, Watkins, or Watkins. Yes, on that street, they got the rest of the street signs. But Watkins has a big boat shed. I'm building it about 20 feet deep. On the other side of my small camp, there is a boat shed called Holomancy. It is only about 15 feet away from my house. That's why I meant that this is the third one on the street. Okay.
Okay. Does anyone in our commission have any objections or opinions on this? No. No. Okay.
This is an act.
Okay. Um, let's make a promise. Okay. I got a promise from Mr. Robert. I also got a promise from Mr. Briand. Everyone who agrees. Yes. Yes. Yes. I think the promise has passed 5-5.
Yes.
Oh, that's five prayers. Thank you, Dean. Okay.
Okay, what's the last thing?
The last thing on the agenda was our next scheduled meeting on November 11th. It's a state event. The CET Hall is closed. I and others talked about it. And we are expecting it on November 18th. And it will be a little easier for everyone. Jeremy and I talked about this. And if Dean and Clark agree on this, everyone here agrees on it. You don't mind, right? I don't have a problem. Okay. Dean, do you agree to this? Okay.
Therefore, I request you to postpone the planning and zoning meeting. Veterans Day is from November 11, 2026 to November 18, 2026.
