“We can. Any objection to that? What has been requested to allow to review to address the comments that have been shared with this body is to move item 8B on our agenda. With no motion, no action being taken at this point in time behind item 12. which would be 12a so 8b would be our final item on the agenda prior to adjournment to allow staff to research the comments that have been made and held here any objection to us moving this on the agenda so with that being said we are going to move item 8b to allow those comments to be heard and addressed and we'll move it to the back of our agenda…”

“And let me ask this right here of staff real quick. John, one of y'all can probably answer this one. I know that exterior building materials really came up in regards to a couple of projects out there that we granted waivers on. I can't remember the percentages that we granted on them. One in particular that jumps out to me was the Hilton. I believe that's the last hotel before you get into BJ's that is a Hilton, right?”

“Do you know what we approved for them as far as facade? Because I know that one actually came, deferred, came, deferred, and finally we came to an agreement on that of something, but I can't remember what those percentages were. We can probably look it up here. Okay.”

“That's what Hilton wound up with? Yeah. OK. I was just curious. That's what I was going to make a quick comment here while Commissioner Frank is looking on this. It's kind of been a hot button of mine throughout the entirety of this year, where you see one, then you see another. This is one that I'll say doesn't necessarily give me the heartburn that others have given me previously. One is that this development has continued to before this body and past has done what they said and oftentimes done more than we've even asked I think that was the extension of Providence Parkway when we had it…”

“okay i see enough thank you yeah i got one for you real quick um this one gives me i know we staff said that we've approved some with the metal facade over here in this area um but i want to say was if slick city was just the rear of the building which unfortunately looks like it probably faces this a little bit right now this one looks like a pole barn from an architecture standpoint.”

“And my concern is the monolithic nature of the other three sides, that there's like no architectural design whatsoever with them, that it really looks like a shed or a pole barn.”

“sure and and if you're at legacy point which part of the building am i seeing am i seeing the front if i'm at legacy point that's really the visual point on this reason why i'm asking is because looking at your landscape plan too it's mainly around the parking lot and the reverse l perimeter that does that but no plantings or anything on i guess the south side of the building Yeah, because the building faces kind of northeast. So the south side of the building right there on the parking. If you guys have any heartburn, just put some of those, maybe five, six trees over through there because…”

“Yeah, you know what I mean? Just that area to the back of the building, maybe five or six trees across through there. Provide some shade down the road and just kind of break that up a little bit. I don't think it hurts anything from that standpoint.”

“Got a quick question while we have you here, Todd. i can't tell and and couldn't really pick up on where this connects on the south side right there is that is that that access road that goes all the way back to the church in between yes sir the gwen medical center i guess is what uh what it's called yeah so that's where that is are you good with that access point there todd versus lining up with the westerly access point that's to that accesses the gwen building Because it looks like on the plot that that's how they access is further west versus. Yes, sir.”
