We're all concerned about the parking with a project. And then we asked for negotiation, which that's our job. Let's make it work for you. And they turned around and says, we'll bring only 50 seats that we'll have. And then the council turned around and says, nope, we'll let you go back to 70. So we're just making recommendations, okay?

“Thank you. I'm not at the podium. Run my microphone. You're on the dial. Okay. Now, real last one, Jimmy. It's about your buffer. All right. In this, it says you don't want to disturb the view watching the lake. Jim, I'm going to be honest with you. I was on that property. And the only thing I see from that property is I can't even see the lake. I see other homes across the street. So, I mean, when I read that, I said something sounds fishy here.

And I'm surprised you didn't fight this one tooth and nail. You're asking to take five away, just for an example. And you have... not plan to replace it we can't be true we were asking to take five bigger trees away eventually and replace them with five right and your excuse in here i'm sorry i'm sorry i didn't mean to cut you off to me because i'm not going to go through this with you you're doing great it's…”
