“All right, so the plan to clean up, I'm assuming you're in that process of connecting the sewer and water, cleaning up, et cetera. Is that something that you, can you actually do that? You know what I'm saying? Yes. I mean, if we give permission, will you be able to do what is being asked of you? Everything that's in the proffers, I would do everything. All right, so I was feeling different because I hadn't talked to you. I was feeling different about this before you got up with my guy right there. So I feel better because you're going to make sure that we do what we need to do.”

“Can I add one point? So, I was at a football game on Friday, crazy crossing back and forward on Airport Drive, thousands of people there, considerations for high impact times around schools too.

And cars were flying through. It's dimly lit on Airport Drive, so maybe something to consider with…”

“No, seriously. Seriously, I appreciate your line of questioning and all of my colleagues, everything they said. It's just two things. Anything that we can do to deter speeding.
