“Well, let's get back to the, let's get back to what you presented here tonight. You heard loud and clear, we wanted to see the data. We've been waiting for the data, but we would like to get it in enough time to where we're not just reviewing it.”

“So I heard Commissioner Rydell suggest November. I would hope that by then we have permits in place and better identified data and look forward to that. I mean, I... I like that at least some of the measures have slowed some people down significantly, even if they aren't live. They think they're live. So, you know, that's a good thing if it helps one person stay safe. But we really want to see all of them live and the correct data to identify the missing gaps in the numbers.”

“good evening okay here we are and uh i totally agree that i think there were more questions than answers at the first meeting so as a result getting some information does make things a little clearer because at the last meeting the size of the letters did matter because it said they would be a minimum of one inch it didn't say so you know i'm imagining a large sign flashing Humor me. So let's not make too much ado about the size of the letter. One inch. I would even entertain having the condition that the letters are one inch in size on the notation on the wall. But about the delivery. The…”

“You see where I'm going with this? What if something arises? The reason I say that is what happens with that dispatch? If items aren't able to be delivered, because in part of the backup it said the majority of the time signatures will be required. Well, are they left if there is no signature? And then if no one is there to receive it, let's say it's a gated community and they can't get in the gate. I don't know. I'm just making this stuff up. But the scenario, but what happens? What if they have to take it back? They don't drive around with it. I'm just trying to say if the deliveries were…”

“I mean, I was just worried about what would happen with, you know, because the hours are similar and what happens with the driver in that situation. So you've answered that. I appreciate the follow-up and all of the information that was given and the oversight from the police department about some of the other concerns in that regard and getting a permanent You must understand, Senator Geller, I've never approved pharmacy hours or pharmacy deliveries since I've been on commission. And to my knowledge, in the city, we don't have a current clinic. that has an in-house pharmacy to dispense…”

“or 1.02 inches so you need some more coffee approximately one inch letters okay is it is a square foot over 510 no it's not is it no i'm asking senator he said he thought that it was okay Anyway, I appreciate it. And I also was very interested in the special land use, how it rolled over from if the property owners changed, either in the building or in the pharmacy. And so I'm assuming that the same conditions would apply to whoever the owner would be of the doctor's group or the pharmacy. Is that right?”

“No, I just, you talked about the lighting in the expanded pickup spaces there at the north end of the parking lot. I was just curious, you're adding additional lighting there in that spot, in that expanded area for pickup?”

“Okay, because it is dark there in the evening, but you've already taken care of that. And the surveillance cameras will be on the drivers as well as those persons coming to pick up? Correct. Okay. Well, I look forward to it. It looks like one of your competitors that I won't name does a very robust business for that kind of service. I used one today for my first time, so... it's very convenient i have to say and um so you say you've taken care of the radius turning for the fire trucks correct okay that has been accounted for okay all right look forward to seeing what happens thank you…”

“Yes, thank you very much. Can you go back to this? I got all of my questions answered at the presentation, both before with staff and then when you and all of the team came. And I have to point out some of the things that I thought really went above and beyond, plus what I was able to experience. But I was asking particularly about the neighbors and those that were abutting where the construction would be taking place. And can you highlight the one mitigation that was done for the one neighbor?”

“I think it was it was just poignant that you know taking into consideration the neighbors for the project, for the temporary lot, as well as what's being proposed. And when I asked about the enrollment current and then what it would cap at, it was $2,400, taking into account the new construction. and the traffic for Lyons. And I really, really liked the idea of extending the turn lane, because I didn't really appreciate it until I was in it. And I was coming from Boca, headed south on Lyons. And at 18th, once the light changed, I was in the left lane. And then I was in the left lane. And then…”

“That's what we were talking about. So, anyway, I don't have any more questions. I think you've gone to a great deal of effort. energy to make the improvements on the campus with the least impact. I know that you said the construction phases would be during the time when school was not in session, so it has the least impact to the academic efforts that take place there as well. Is that right?”

“It's not a question, it's a comment. We were giving allowance for the school, putting them so late on the agenda. Look at our staff, here till the very end for three items on this agenda. I'm just saying.”
