“Thank you, Chair. Only two quick notes, and this is more so for down the line. Commissioner Tedona actually reminded me of it, but the city of Claremont is doing their 9-11 memorial service on the Friday the 11th, and I believe it's at 10 o'clock at the Arts and Rec Center. And then also they have Sips and Salsa on the 19th as well. So definitely two important events in our city and would love to see folks out there. That is all of my report.”

“I think I can work with this. I think Vinny brings up some very, very good concerns. But the fact that you have support from neighbors around you. If I can ask, I guess one of my questions is in terms of the parking for the church, obviously on Sundays, that's the fullest. But if you could estimate during the week how full, in comparison to the open and closing hours of the funeral home, how full does your parking lot get, I guess, in comparison to the adjacentness of the funeral home?”

“Gotcha. Okay. No, I was just curious on that in terms of, you know, what it looks like during the week. Yeah. I completely understand the heartburn in terms of those parking spaces, but the fact that you have that quote unquote overflow parking space, gives me a little bit of a better feeling on that. Um, and that's the only question that that's the only real question I had in terms of that, that overflow parking. So that's all.”

“seats now in regards to your services do you usually get a full house or do you have more than the 89 or more than 90 you know so far we have not nothing okay can i can i interrupt for one second can i ask just for the record um i guess the average from your own information your own thoughts what is the average number of folks that you would have for service reviewing like at the funeral home you said how many people normally have like an average like an average for service or just the viewing, uh, whatever services, the funeral home.”

“Thank you, Chair. So I have mainly just two questions and one's a double hit, I guess you could say. And this is kind of just from my own edification for the public as well. In terms of, yeah, I know. In terms of the role of the checklist, I think on the last page, for my own information, is this essentially going to be just an internal tool for development services? Or is this kind of going to be like a checklist for applicants as well to kind of look at or developers? Or is there going to be an essential tool essentially a completed copy included in our packets from staff. And the only…”

“And yeah, and I think just to follow up on that, you know, if it is to be included, I think it may be good to essentially have staff kind of provide a, you know, either a preliminary or an initial, you know, condition met or, you know, condition not met or, you know, something that they may need, you know, if they need something else, maybe they can add that in as well. just so we have a better understanding of why that decision was taken. And the reason I'm saying that is kind of just alludes to the last point is when I was on council, I was obviously on there on a time where we had a number…”

“Thank you, Chair. So this is essentially the same thing. I want to say it's very similar to what we approved. I want to say two meetings back, I believe. And I know that former building was Health and Wellness Center itself. So I don't have any questions. I think it's a good fit for the area. So thank you.”

“Um, and then I guess just the only other thing I really have is, um, obviously your neighbor to the West at eight 47 is somewhat concerned about trash. And I know he's talked to, um, the city manager a little bit, but just, you know, continue to be a good neighbor. And if you have any issues, try to do what you can to make sure you can alleviate them. Be great. And then finally, this is more so not necessarily due to this project, but more so I guess to the west of it as well. For the West End, is there going to be any future consideration on? I don't want to say buffing it, but you know, I…”

“Don't worry. I actually don't have any questions. Everybody actually asked everything that I was concerned about. Um, mainly just the parking in that area in general. So I, I think, uh, this is open and shut.”

“Great. No, that's good to hear. I know there's a couple of other vet offices in the area that get a bit swamped either from double scheduling or whatnot. So it's nice to see that you are thinking about doing a temporary drop off or spot for your patients.”
