“Because I disagreed with our city attorney. That's why I didn't ask his opinion. I didn't ask his permission to send something that I didn't agree with him on. So this is different, though. We're talking about what you said last year, that we ought to all talk about it as a group. Now, my question is this to Owen, is what kind of time frame are we talking about?

“Yeah, I'll keep it quick because it is tomorrow. City manager, I thought it was a good idea to have goals. City manager has to think about things that are coming up and plan more than the city attorney. The city attorney is more reactionary. In fact, the final line of the relevant statement here was the city attorney is the top legal advisor for the city and is responsible for prosecuting and defending the city in all complaints, suits, and controversies. So if we don't have complaints, suits, or controversies, there's not really much for you to do. But I agree with both goals, so I'm good…”

“This is a proven annexation, and usually when people annex into the city, they annex for getting sewer or, you know, water and advantages of being in the city of Clearwater. Now, why does this have to do with an eightplex? That's what I want to know.”

“looked at all the facilities and never knew where the water was because you guys are hidden. And probably for good reason. But I mean, it looked like something out of NASA. I mean, it's an amazing plant you guys do over there. And I wouldn't have the slightest idea of what you do with water, but I just know the end result is it comes out where everybody can drink it and it's safe. So I want to thank you for that. Well, we appreciate that. Thank you.”

“Well, my understanding is you aren't going to get much of a project like a hotel unless it's right around 120 units. hotels not going to build less than that they're going to they usually start at 120 and go up that's the only reason i'd like to strategically and i know we don't have a 100 but if you watch it i mean they go back and forth so i think if we could just put a net up somehow and catch you know what i'm saying at least 120 units we could say okay well this is where we'd like to have them finish off in that particular spot. That's just my opinion.”
