“Anyways. Yes, sir. So I would say for the crossroads, If you want to keep and maintain a two-story on turning on 57th and turning on 73rd to not just have a big building there, this would be a good option. But then, to me, my opinion, contrary on the bank building, I don't think it works well there because I think in the back they can put something, you know, I don't know, we're restricting the bank building or bank owners to do the option. We're not.”

“Wouldn't we have to decide on what that maximum floor plate is going to be before we make a motion? There's no maximum. If they go over 20, they just have to cut down all the way to the floor, whatever structure it is. So what is the maximum that we're going to allow for them to go? 50,000? 30,000?”

“May I? Yes, you're recognized. I think we should also put it in the record that what we're doing here is we're cleaning up current zoning things that we've found as we've gone, we're not trying to do it because of one specific person who just so happens to coincidentally be doing a project in which we're talking about this very thing. So we're just doing cleanup. We're not really trying to modify for a certain developer.”

“Just that question. My second thing is I would be very apprehensive to, I mean, I'm happy that it's getting off Sunset at the entrance of our city. I don't know if I would want to put it on Sunset Drive, which is our main road. I don't know if I can do that.”

“I would say the only modification I'm agreeing with you, I think five is more than enough. I don't think it should be more than, especially you already have the cases of the other two closest scenarios to close at five. You can't serve liquor past four unless you have an exemption, so I think five is more than enough.”

“Yeah, I mean, if you're at one corner, the linear footage is going to connect you to those, right to the Mobley building. So I think that that one's off. The other one is right by the fire station.”

“So I would imagine that they would have to start making arrangements prior to that, so I don't really think we have. Well, that's my question. A whole lot of time. That's what I was asking for. Yeah, July. I don't know those timelines. Yeah, July is when they're closing, the current location.”
