38:36 – 39:07•Speaker 1

so we did go back and forth with with architects to make sure that it was in compliance with the overlay district. okay. you say the rail. the only question i have is about sewer line. so this is going to be contingent on the county installing a. idex tension to a sewer line on central avenue so that that. project will move ahead until that is done.

39:05 – 39:47•Speaker 1

so we are working in partnership with indian river county to expand that we're all in the cra area, which this is a part of and that is just getting underway. and so we will work in partnership to make sure that that connection happens at the same time construction. ok. thank have a question regarding when you're tearing down the building. how much pressure you can put on the city clerk's office to take over for them. how they won't look, there will be anyone in the building to help the people that go to the cemetery, pick out lots and duet all the paperwork and things. city clerk have enough people in their office to handle that.

43:19 – 45:16•Speaker 1

good evening. my name is wesley mills. shorten associates. tonight. we're here to present to you for hawks landing townhome project. so i just want to introdere tonight, myself are from is the land planner in civil engineer for the project and then mccarty and associates are the landscape architects. just a general location of where the sites is situated. it's it's just east shuman drive. here's a closer view of the location the site used to be one of the platted gdc platts that i think heard from other projects. similar situation. just just to the east. so i just wanted to give a background on the project and how we got to this point. and so about a year ago we went through rezoning of the of the site and we rezone it to multi-family sos envision that we would be coming before you guys with with a project like this tonight. we had a pnc commission hearing with the rezoning. it was supported by pnc and then we had our city council meetings ultimately received approval. throughout all the time that i've been working with you guys in the city. definitely understand sensitivity to existing trees and preservation of trees. so really before we started this project. we got a in depth tree survey and we met with city staff and we created a site plan to try to preserve as much of the trees as we could on site. and so that was really the starting point for the project. met with city staff work through the alignment and making sure that we preserved as many of the trees that are on site as as possible as we get into the

45:10 – 47:10•Speaker 1

site plan. i think you'll you'll see. where those areas are at that we did a good job with that. we we submitted our initial submittal on february 10th 2025 and then we also held a neighborhood workshop in september to meet with local residents. and and just explain a project answer any questions that we we any other concerns. so just a little bit about the project. its 20.3 acres. it's a 160 townhomes that the floor area of the town homes will be approximately 1600 to 1800 square feet. we have an overall 40% of open space that we provided on the project and then we also have need of a plan preservation areas that that were 27% of the site. we also wanted to make sure that we had enough parking for any guest that would be coming in and use of e public dog park that we have in the amenity center. so we we have 352 parking spaces in total. a lot of that is is made up either on site in the driveways. and then we also have a significant amount of on-street parking as well. and then a dedicated parking space in front of the dog park for the public. that would be using using the the public don't park. as far as amenities go will have a pool. cabana pool centrally located within the community. we that's where male kiosk will be located in and sufficient parking. there. we also have the public dog park. and as part of the dup, the public dog park. we have retention pond located in that area. and then walking paths that invention for the public to use. we have a 20 foot 25 foot

47:05 – 49:04•Speaker 1

landscape buffer throughout around the entire site. and then we also have a master storm water system which would consist of 3 wet retention funds. so this is a rendering of the proposed site plan. and as you can see, all the trees that are shown on this site plan indicate the preservation areas where we're going to leave the existing education and then in addition to that, we're going replant and enhance some of those native areas to be used within the community. our main entrance is on the left side of the screen. it will be gated and and fenced. that will be the primary access point for the residents and then towards the right of the screen we have a secondary access point and that's where the public would use used to access and coming parking any lies. the dog park that secondary access will also be used for the community to exit exa site. the pool and pool cabana is located in the center of the site just north of that. you have parking in the mail. kiosk. the roadway will be fully paved water and sewer will be provided throughout the community. the water will be a loop system and tie into the county's water mains located along schumann as well as the sewer services will be by the county and will tie into the municipal system. are we have the landscape buffer to the top of the screen. that will be most of of the existing vegetation will be preserved. and then we're also going to plant that area to enhance and buffer from the single family residences. and there will be

48:58 – 49:55•Speaker 1

it will be. they'll be a fence along that area as as well. in the areas with with the trees shown. that's all conservation area. we will have signs posted throughout those areas just indicating that these are conservation areas know greeting will be the site would be left natural and then enhanced plan this is just a sample of what the buildings will look client is still working with the painting of a builder. so the elevations may change slightly. but this is a good representation of what the buildings would look like. with that. i'll open it up for any questions that you man.

49:51 – 50:09•Speaker 1

i here staff presentation next. and them if we have some questions calling you. thank you. thank you. staff presentation, please.

50:08 – 52:07•Speaker 1

good evening. commissioners. madam chair. my name is jim and with the community development department and before you we have a preliminary plat and it's a plan approval. for the construction of a 162 town units across 28 buildings along with an amenity center public parking as access shooting drive. now before we kind of go into. the specifics about the project in the zone everything like that. so what you see on the agenda tonight and see 2 different items you have point to judicial meeting for the site plan approval of this site. you also see a public hearing and the next item for the preliminary plat. so the reason why we have to go through both processes for this project is that since it is a multi-family development so it does require a site plan approval. so which is the it to shul hearing, but also they are conveying property for private property owners on the town home. so it has to be subdivided into a subdivision. so that requires a recommendation for the city council to approve the preliminary plot. since you have to project or 2 applications and one presentation. so going along with the site plan of this project. the. so in july or june of 5 this year. we did do some recommendations and land development, text amendment changes for the setbacks and size requirement for townhome regulations. and zoning for a mate and with this new development, they meet all the setbacks and requirements for this ad owning criteria. also

51:59 – 53:59•Speaker 1

with the parking calculations. they're way above the required parking that they need for gas and amenity and plus for the town homes themselves. so with that, some of the considerations that we looked into with this. i know mister mills. he did a great job of explaining, you know, the underlying project itself. but i just want to say that some of the native preservation. we realize that, you know, this property is very vegetated. and it has an enormous amount of you know, oaks and pines everything like that and they did a great job and preserving moat. most of those that they could into. compromise for a comprehensive plan. you know, which it requires 25% of an age, you move a vegetative community remained on site and they're at the 27% park. so i think they did a very good job with that providing. and you know, the extra landscape buffers to accommodate the surrounding residents. you know, they can be. kind of buffered from these town home development. so those going into the recommendation, the staff does recommend approval for the preliminary plot. and for this actual action item. so staff recommends. approval of the site plan for town home development of hawks landing for the under the following conditions. so since it has to go through a preliminary plat process to be a city council. one of the record are the conditions is no cave. and so the property shall occur until

53:51 – 55:12•Speaker 1

the preliminary plat and file are approved. and a plan. the second condition is to a plan to avoid a mocking. monotone color schemes elevations for the town homes and shall be submitted to staff prior to the issue. and so the first bill in they kind of goes into, you know. we don't really want the same color scheme for each individual building. the kind of gives it month. we're not in a so we want to see. you know, something different with each and he's and something that we do require 4. submittals for preliminary pots and count on the bowman says assigned school concurrency available. determination also known as a scandal. from the school board and has to be submitted before the first building. permit can be issued. that's just kind of scene. you know, the concurrency with the surrounding schools and it depending on the amount of. children that may be living in this development. and if you have any further questions. so for okay. thank you.

55:07 – 55:45•Speaker 1

he stuck i'm going to ask for public input. now. first of all, in favor of this. project. this is a little bit complicated because we're doing. 2 things at the same time. and it's kind of like. the fingers on my left hand are part of my hand and they cannot be separated for that. they are not the whole hand. does that make any that's kind of what we're doing. can't

55:42 – 56:02•Speaker 1

but we can't have one without the other permit, but we can't have one without the other and that's absolutely correct. the hand would be pretty useless about that. if you can find

55:53 – 56:44•Speaker 1

bear that in mind, the i'm asking for public the issue that we have just discussed, which is the site plan development. is there anyone from the public who would like to speak in favor of this site plan development. okay. seeing none. do we have anyone here who wishes to speak. against this site plan development. we have a hand ok. have you filled out oath card.

56:42 – 57:27•Speaker 1

i'm sorry. i can't we can't hear you and everything you say needs if you're going to speak, it needs to be on the record. see if anybody on june. think we and think tradition. to do you more. to in the morning. i know exist. hi, carol. maxwell. i just don't know that.

57:21 – 57:48•Speaker 1

the area has enough. rose. how are all these people going to get out of this development. and do we have interest structure. senator for that. or will we have it. ok. i think

57:43 – 58:08•Speaker 1

we if you saw the place, there is a. primary access entry and exit. understanding go to that. what road shuman schumann. traffic. if everybody to get out of the community at a certain time to go to work.

58:03 – 58:35•Speaker 1

okay. thank we were traffic there's been want. thank anyone else. yes, when know what the backs off first of all, you stephen wooldridge. i live at 1, 5, 3, david wright, thank with this setback soft tissue lincoln now going to be.

58:30 – 59:00•Speaker 1

for this town houses and they can answer that question. i we have and what what would the timeframe be to start finish, ok, questions it shows on the plant. and i'm sure that we can respond to that. i was in those again, engineer.

58:58 – 59:56•Speaker 1

record for the project. so just to follow up on this maxwell's comment about traffic. we did produce a traffic report that was reviewed by city staff and the added troops from our development will not. causing issues for any of that any of the that were floating our traffic on as it relates to setbacks of the buildings from the shuman can now the building will be set back off the canal about 50 feet. so you have a landscaped buffer and then you have a 25 foot setback. you have a 25 foot landscape buffer from the canal and then you'll have a 25 foot setback to the building structure. ♪

59:54 – 1:00:42•Speaker 1

the traffic study was done january of this year. january 31st. as far as so the traffic consultant went out and got trips. any did it multiple times throughout the to get those readings. in his report was completed. in accordance with indian river county requirements and the city's requirements as far as trip generation and longing of the trips and how all that kind you know, i thank you. thanks

1:00:32 – 1:01:10•Speaker 1

if you're going to speak, we need to hear on the record. sorry about that. i was kind of hoping for a more specific day when the traffic study was done, not just a random. you know, week is there going to be a light or do we think we need to like. flashing of any type.

1:01:09 – 1:01:45•Speaker 1

perhaps or staff can respond was very traffic count. for trips per day. setting was in

1:01:42 – 1:02:02•Speaker 1

so i believe the traffic studies done over like a two-week period of time frame and they do the trip counts for that section of roadway. they also kind of account into like the level of service of the roadway system. and for that amount of trips to did not.

1:01:56 – 1:02:41•Speaker 1

you know, repeating trip. like an improvement for that section of roadway for sherman drive they was approved by ira see traffic engineering and by our city engineer and it didn't. require any updates or improvements to the roadway section. comey is couple broke. okay. there anyone else from the public to.

1:02:32 – 1:03:04•Speaker 1

had anything to say against the snow. any final. from the thank you. madam chair so in conclusion the the site plan.

1:03:00 – 1:03:57•Speaker 1

so in propose hawks landing site is consistent with the state and local laws with respect to the subdivision and site plan development, including provisions contained with the city's comprehensive plan and land development code. again. staff recommends approval of the site plan for this item. for hawks landing. so so the vision of the following conditions could ban so the property. joker until preliminary plan. final fighter approved by city council. plan to avoid a monotonous color scheme. elevations down-home houston shall be submitted for staff prior 2 issuance of the first building permit. and some middle of the school concurrency availability determination letter austin is a scandal. from the school board must be submitted staff before issuance of the first building permit.

1:03:51 – 1:04:13•Speaker 1

can it. thank you. thank you. officially close the hearing and we'll be the commissioners deliberation in action. and we'll start with ms baffles has something. talking about.

1:04:08 – 1:04:52•Speaker 1

so we're on the topic of traffic. and i just had a so there is reference being to the level of service. and i think we all know you know, traffic's pretty bad in on schumann. what is the current level of service out there and maybe you can explain. if the level of service changes or not. we have the level of service and schumann is c and this project does not change level of service. perfect. thank you. i did have a question another question you.

1:04:48 – 1:05:10•Speaker 1

are the ponds intended to be wet or wet. that would make sense. is the public amenity i guess is there reason behind that area being completely fenced in closed.

1:05:06 – 1:05:37•Speaker 1

yes, the community would be a private community and we have a gate at the entrance. so so that the public just as not wandering through sure, the subdivision. so it's all said the public part, the limits a public park and then because it would be used for dog. a dog park. we wanted to make sure that the dogs that the park is completely if the dogs were out running around.

1:05:32 – 1:05:58•Speaker 1

okay. so the dog is the entire area with the the walking path yes. okay. think it's around 0.8 3 acres. i believe.

1:05:53 – 1:06:34•Speaker 1

question on the secondary so the main access i think is great because you have that turnaround area, little bit wider. what is the plan for maybe any traffic. tries to enter the secondary access and can't. i'm assuming maybe the turnaround in the parking or do you have any yeah. so there's there's parking spaces there. and that was the intent is that you would pull in and you would do like it. turn around and come through. thank

1:06:33 – 1:07:25•Speaker 1

okay. i have a few questions. secondary gate that skated as well. yes, okay. and it shows you so that you had an undersea that you do have quite a bit of parking. but you have to. parking spots and one handicap so 3 total for the dog park. yes. okay. and the dog park is part of the community, correct. yes. so i'm assuming there's an h.o.a.. there will okay and they're responsible for the upkeep in the maintenance of that dog park even though it's a public used part. okay. so intriguing to that. don't park. how would that work? could you say the entry gained how how are the folks from the public going to get to the doctor. is there date on the outside of the fence. they just come in and yes. okay. really the parking just a turnaround.

1:07:23 – 1:08:13•Speaker 1

well, it's it's for if you were going, we anticipate that the dog park would be used by residents that are in close proximity to our project and that it's more likely that they would walk their dogs. there. but if anybody was going to drive there. that's we have the parking spaces so could park and used the and so they would be coming through a gated community closed gated community to get to those park the secondary. gay is behind is is the parking spaces are in front of gate. are in front of the gate. okay that the gate was at outside. you know that the gay is set back so that it would be full public access to that. that try driveway parking spaces in the gate would be behind that. okay. so a public area is the.

1:08:09 – 1:08:32•Speaker 1

dog parks, the walking trails and is that all or is that the amenities of the manatee and the poll as no. so the community would be a private community. the dog park walking trails benches. that would be the public component of it.

1:08:27 – 1:09:00•Speaker 1

and because it will be the west side that fencing area that's going to b the buffer between the current resident. is that a solid walt, i funds or is it landscape type fencing where you're going land skate. and as if its landscape going to be both sides. i you know, what is community going to the current resident. what are they going to look at when they look at their back door.

1:08:56 – 1:09:40•Speaker 1

so there will be a and then it will be heavily landscaped with the existing vegetation and then additional landscaping that will point to screen it. okay. so what you're saying fence, you're saying like a chain link fence that you're going to have a landscape, both sides or is it a bbc fence. a wood fence will be a. opaque fence. the other all the other fencing around the project will be like a decorative chainlink or aluminum type in seeing. but that didn't seem will be opaque. and so you have the landscaping, you have the fence and then you have all the landscaping. okay.

1:09:38 – 1:10:13•Speaker 1

and back to the dog park the dog park in the walking trails that are they're all of that is. self-contained where the community, the residents of that community. would be. they would still be in their gated community if they're buying into a gated community. they're going to be in a gated community where the public is not free to walk through gated community, correct. yes. okay. that's all i have right now.

1:10:10 – 1:10:41•Speaker 1

expanding on the h.o.a.. little bit is each building unit with the units. are they going to when you say convey the property to the owners. you couldn't individual owner each unit or is it going to be by building and they would have don't like building a has their own h.o.a. building b s how would that work. and so we're going to plant.

1:10:39 – 1:11:05•Speaker 1

each unit fee. simple. so every person that would buy their unit would their front yard, their rear yard and their unit fee. simple. and as far as an h.o.a., the h.o.a. like any other standard subdivision. so it would not be like a condo association this week look like any other typical subdivision h.o.a. don't.

1:11:01 – 1:11:29•Speaker 1

and the only comment i have is there may be a time when but you folks are couldn't hit age where we're going to need a place that instead of a big house and a big you to

1:11:20 – 1:12:33•Speaker 1

i think you're going to really save me okay. i'm surprise that most of these new slide counter allowing for public to access dog parks and walking trails. and i really appreciate that because we certainly do need a lot more of those in the city. so that's one thing that i really appreciate you doing. also i have a question on thunderbird drive. you have a street called thunderbird drive. does it equal to the west side of shuman drive because there's a thunderbird drive on the west side of shuman as well lineup not. it doesn't line up there and you may have to change it to under berg road for 911. services. take, you know, carries through through the west. we are preparing the plant.

1:12:31 – 1:12:55•Speaker 1

now. yeah. so we can look at changing the name at that position confusion there have only got us on the west side. yeah, no, i that's a good point and we can we can look into that because we are getting ready to to submit our final place that's really set anniversary of the ridge. yes.

1:12:49 – 1:13:27•Speaker 1

if i may jump in so if you look on the preliminary plat they do have the street names located within the development. one being apple bird street. and then the other being sunburst circle, there's a thunderbird rack. standards.

1:13:23 – 1:14:04•Speaker 1

just looking at. but led to drive on the west side what we did was because the site was previously platted 70's a number of the gdc plan. we just used the road names that existed with that client. however, i don't know that my client is fully attached to the name of the street. so if it makes sense to to change. it would be we'd be happy to change that and a and i don't have a problem with that but take.

1:13:57 – 1:14:38•Speaker 1

gdc guarantee you that the ditches showing on the gz maps are not there wiped out that plan as part of the rezoning. i fully understand the heartache singalong that dc i just don't want 911. count was there. that's the one thing that you need to check make sure. yes, ma'am. we thank have no other questions. thank mr roux. i just have some questions about the the right away for the canal maintenance.

1:14:35 – 1:15:13•Speaker 1

think made these comments last time we had this meeting. there's going to large cip project proposed in the future. that's going to be working on the. sea walls there. i don't know if that's going to conflict with the. the existing plans for project. who is, you know who the ownership of the seawall is now. i believe it's the city. to see

1:15:08 – 1:16:33•Speaker 1

so usually it's determined from a survey of the seawall is usually right on the property so that is. i'm not do anything to survey. so that is a camel. it's a good question. you can look into that and it is something that we need to established as the for city council. we can establish that who's going be owner and maintenance of that in the previous session held same canal in that developers agree we had made those homers in to a responsible for seawalls, for the maintenance. so we can local that farther into as the battle for follow, it will make sure get dedication or something in it to a that establishes that to take care of this evil. we will have to work in our city and here they be something that want go in and do project it is place visited the city wants to maintain. we'll certainly get that resolved before that. that is the council find we're happy work with staff on okay. that's all ahead.

1:16:19 – 1:16:47•Speaker 1

no okay. thank you very for thank and you lead to roll. me i don't think i've ever seen as large a tree survey. anywhere that made a difference and job.

1:16:44 – 1:17:15•Speaker 1

and i am only place that i wasn't the one who had to grant their account although station. will thank you. we've we've been in front of you guys on numerous projects and i you loud and clear. so we started with the trees for for this project. we've done a great job. thank you. and the first when we get to the part about the plant. i just because of what it is i do for a living.

1:17:10 – 1:17:40•Speaker 1

who owns the she wall is extremely important. if you are intending to sell properties. 2 people who need loans. during to be a title issue. the ownership of the seawall and i have several transactions that fell apart because we couldn't determine ownership of the seawall.

1:17:37 – 1:18:15•Speaker 1

so the title company said no, we're interested in and it's really important to get that resolved. prior to. certainly any preparation. we definitely will. and and the nice thing is because of all the landscape buffers that we have. there's no single lot that abuts the c will. that's all common h.o.a. space. i appreciate nice. thank thank i have no other questions. i have no other comments.

1:18:14 – 1:18:39•Speaker 1

can. just through the discussion. i just had a couple other questions but are we going to have a different conversation when the plot comes up in a minute. if we're all finished, tatum ocean.

1:18:35 – 1:19:22•Speaker 1

i have one more question sponsor. i know in the past that we've had other commuters whenever that there's been a condition. who's responsible for the maintenance. i love the dog love the walking. i love that. it's given back to the community. but when you put it into a community. somebody has to maintain it and because it is part of this community and it's going to fall back on the community. i don't want to see that fall to the wayside or than becomes a burden to the city of sebastian. so i don't know if we did a condition with a matter. i don't know. so similar to our treasure bay. we did have we did have a condition that spilled out that we made it clear that to is going take care of this.

1:19:19 – 1:20:25•Speaker 1

but it would be certainly something in the final is you get those 2 dedication and the language lady who's pose a dedicated to his response for the maintenance. so it's up to you if you would like to make that a 3rd of motion added condition of approval right front. that we would like to maintain this. this is their this is a requirement for the recreation and then well, you know, could be it'll be in the resolution that goes to city council and also that we're checking in on the final plan also includes maintaining it and who's dedicated to so similar treasure bay we stated that perpetuity that those publix pastes place of bases. public areas would be dedicated to the public with made totally in the h.o.a.. and i think we actually had word that it became blighted cat that you subdivision could be found violation approval so we can again suggests if you want to have that for lithium ocean. but we will make sure that that's the and dedication on the

1:20:22 – 1:20:40•Speaker 1

thank you. can question for staff, are you looking for 2 motions. one for the final platt, preliminary plat and one for this site plan for. maybe attorney says we have to do that or we don't have to do that.

1:20:36 – 1:21:14•Speaker 1

so correct. i mean, our current code states that clinton plots and final thoughts are approved by city and pz makes a recommendation for the preliminary plat and final plot. more of that board. and vote for this hearing right here. the it's just for the site plan. only. so you just want a motion for the just i think only of the still open for the character, the the item that we discussed about the dedication of the public areas is a fact want to save addition to that motion for that item.

1:21:11 – 1:21:54•Speaker 1

like this is just the same plan review what this does approve the site because if if say for some reason the plant doesn't get approved could still be built. these would become apartments. it's the plant that is going to turn these into town houses because they're going to be dedicated conveyed but the safely and still can be approved. these would be built apartments. so they'll be 2 different motions want that went to the site plan any additions. if you want to add to jim's conditions of approval determined at this site plan related. i mean, i'm personally in support of adding a condition. i think it's.

1:21:52 – 1:22:10•Speaker 1

something that obviously the applicant agreed to just makes it more formal. and on the record. can we have motion.

1:22:08 – 1:22:56•Speaker 1

all right. i'll make a motion to recommend approval for her. for the site plan for the story, the site plan development for hawking's landing for the 162 townhome units with the conditions that staff has recommended and the addition of the condition. that we request that the. h.o.a.. is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep for the public areas in perpetuity. i'll second that.

no question of moment just want to reiterate about the seeing the right away for the time canal maintenance easement along the seawall and ownership. the seawall. okay. and no question. no question. there. the couple. i. i think that maybe the lines for the public dog park and trail tracked.

1:26:38 – 1:27:23•Speaker 1

might need to follow the the. fence line. i s agree. i see you're saying and we will update that with the final point. okay. perfect one other thing i noticed on this secondary entrance tracked. i think that line may need to go down to the proposed gate. we want it. honestly i think may be the main entrance when to.

1:27:22 – 1:28:03•Speaker 1

we will take a look at that. and we are ship the final plat. so the survey will be given good scrub and making sure everything closes and it logical in that sense. prevent. i have no further comment. call for a motion. thank you. and if you do make a motion. we recommend city council. the preliminary replant for hawks landing subdivision.

1:28:34 – 1:29:00•Speaker 1

i'm can you as can you repeat that again? i was saying can we add the condition to make the small tweaks we just discussed with the engineer. it shows the 2 of you, the track santa tracks beat entrance tracks and the track for the public to park and trail make it

1:28:56 – 1:29:35•Speaker 1

did you need that to be condition of approval or just for us to review and possibly tweak that as goes to city council because making a recommendation to city council. we do have if you want look into both the seawall issue and the fact issue we can make those changes on the planet as it goes to city council. okay. that's fine. as long you know, get implemented. because whenever conditions of approval will be a in that it into the approving resolution to some of these might necessarily that need to be conditions of approval that something need to look into.

1:32:24 – 1:33:08•Speaker 1

so the limits for that 66 avenue project i can't speak to this place work for the county. limits of that project will in that county road 5.10. so in essence when that. phase of county road 5.10, becomes under construction fdot will create the at that intersection. the only proposed widening. it may just be kind of like guess more of a medieval approach pattern from the north along partner street down. it won't affect will go into the city. don't.

1:33:06 – 1:33:54•Speaker 1

but to add that gyms. there are a couple of county projects in that area north 5.10, to street where we have all those developers have been working with karen offering she's been able to reuse their traffic impact analysis reports to see of regarding the intersection because we're aware that those projects will be going using departing to get to the public's there. and so they're looking to see if there's another turn lane or how is going affect that intersection. and we also looking to get from that developers offsite sidewalks. some additional sidewalks along that section of. should we drive 66 avenue. so kind of piecing together. but that section is being reviewed to some of those county projects. also, thank you.

1:33:52 – 1:34:22•Speaker 1
