I can go either way. I appreciate you going back to him and getting changed some things up listening to us, but I can go one or two. I don't mind either of them to be honest.

12:26•Dave Del Regno

I have no issues other than another bag store for my wife. Thank you very much.

20:07 – 22:02•Dave Del Regno

Um yeah, so Jim think when your statement there is code. Are we allowed pictures now? Yeah, so I think I think it is a owner. You need to recognize that what we're saying code is not going This image that we see up on the screen now of with a with an end with pictures on it, right? It's it's simply going to be letters I want to make sure that that's Understanding of that we don't allow it in the city to have images on the electronic sign and and then I also want to make sure that you're aware that there is I think we can only display so many messages we went through this and it's so many messa

22:29 – 22:42•Dave Del Regno

As long as your messaging's. Short and sweet and not well, you can't. Yeah, it's pretty much going to be at 35 miles an hour and with that much space. If you try to fill the board, it's going to cause the exact opposite effect, correct?

33:50 – 34:13•Dave Del Regno

uh just remind me so are we doing what the back to vineyard what's going on with the access there is it was that that if i remember correctly they don't have a gate yeah across it we're installing a steel gate that'll be closed and only in use when the city okay the knox box is what's going down at that end okay and then uh mr johnson did you get your

40:42 – 41:32•Dave Del Regno

No, other than to say that they were before PZL. Very impressive group. Appreciate what you're doing. Definitely is a needed item here in the west side. Very good space for it, in my opinion. I think it fits where it's at and allows, opens up their services to a wide array of people. It's easy access from 90, so you've got a lot of traffic the parents can come in and also enjoy our cracker scene so i think it's a really nice location for them but i think their services are desperately needed and i fully support it great thank you mr jones thank you yeah i don't have any concerns with uh this u

43:46•Dave Del Regno

I'm in favor, just let everybody know that Mr. Vidal counted how many times and had that in his presentation to the PZL. Hedges shows up, but I am in support of it.

1:14:05 – 1:14:41•Dave Del Regno

And I don't know if that... that image you have showing the sight line, is that two?

1:14:44 – 1:16:02•Dave Del Regno

Okay. Because it doesn't, it appears to be greater than that when I'm up there looking down on it. That's where I was, the last meeting we talked about it. So I think from the resident side of it, they're going to know by the with that change you're looking they're not looking directly at a board on board fence it's going to be above eye level i'll say looking at the bottom side of that which they also have a substantial amount of trees on their backyard that are that are in place that are not being disturbed by this project so um i don't have any concerns there the siding side of things the t
