    “Yeah, that doesn't change. I'm not happy about the one vote that was passed in 24. But if we're going to grandfather some people in here, it's going to help them right now. But I'm not okay with that 24 ordinance that was passed back then. But I guess I'll support this based on that.”

    “I think the only change was one boat per household or the townhomes, multifamily or duplexes was the change in 24, if I remember looking it up correctly. The setbacks were there already.”
