May we pray? Loving God, we pray for your grace and wisdom so that we may work for the common good. Keep us mindful of our work to serve our community. We also pray for voters in the upcoming election that they will choose to elect representatives who will use their offices to promote the well-being of all people.
No, ma'am. Thank you. Alderman Skinner? No, ma'am. Thank you.
I would like to remind everybody that they can be voting now absentee if they are 65 or older or have certain other statuses if they're going to be out of town that day for the November 3rd election. If you're going to plan to vote in person on November 3rd, Double check your voter status. Y'all vote with the Secretary of State's office. Double check where you go to vote. Have a plan for that day. And I appreciate everybody who takes time to go and participate in these elections.
Yes, sir. A lot in front that got a manufacturer.
Those access points, like cartels, there's plenty of room there to get a drive-in.
If you're going around that 1487 on either side.
All right. Yes, sir? We've got one right up the street.
So it's not, we're not going to be out of character.
I have one question. Yes. Where's the developer from?
Motion. Do I have a second? Thank you, Mayor. I would like to second that. All right. On top of eight years on planning and zoning, we did the exact same thing. That's all the way up. All right.
Are there spaces in the hotel? I realize that it will be rare that the hotel is 100% occupied, and so there is some built-in cushion there with these numbers. But are there any spaces that would drive a requirement for additional parking, any meeting rooms or a restaurant or anything like that?
So nothing that would drive a need for additional spaces. Thank you.
