09:19for certificate of consistency under sections

09:28Zoning Ordinance. The applicant proposes the

09:35four residential buildings along with structured

09:42540 spaces. The proposal will also include

09:48designed drainage controls and landscaping.

09:58that 163 plus or minus square feet of land

10:05150 Newport Avenue Extension, uh 17 Oak Avenue,

10:13located within the Residence B, Residence C,

10:20and are shown on Assessor's Map 61-62, Lots 40,

10:35Good evening, Mr. Chairman. For the

10:38and I represent uh Trammell Crow. Just to

10:43the board uh during the summer at the first uh

10:49we had a lot of comments from the board. Um

10:53concerns that neighbors had with working with

10:59and we've come up with this brief presentation,

11:06the points that were raised. Uh and

11:11uh one of the directors of Trammell Crow, and

11:21Good evening, Mr. Chairman, members

11:25last time we were here was towards the end

11:31uh I s- think some really positive updates that

11:36Um so to start there were a few follow-ups um

11:43that came up at the July planning board hearing.

11:50the uh overlay was supposed to be transparent, but

11:58which is now currently owned by the MBTA and

12:03parking garage, where the overpass is, they have

12:10that provides access and kind of their

12:18to allow people to get into this into the overpass

12:25of the concerns of okay, how is there going

12:31title documents, there is that easement. So there

12:39office building that they own, they will have the

12:46the MBTA's parcel, there's the city land and then

12:53some clarity. And then along with the access into

13:01up was where are you guys on the zone of influence

13:08giving some more detail on which departments have

13:14Friday and shortly after um we will have the

13:22Um moving forward, so another question that came

13:32and I thought it'd be useful to just provide

13:37Their proximity to MBTA MBTA stations and

13:45both per unit which we look at but we look

13:52As you can see we're pretty much towards the

13:58in Quincy just across the street here. And on

14:06do not feel comfortable going below that. We feel

14:12would also want to note that the zoning does

14:19the lowest we could go is losing 20

14:22the 540 that we're providing is necessary

14:30So we talked through the

14:35a few other comments that came in from

14:40Indoor bike storage that is

14:45One comment that came up was in

14:51That is something that we can investigate

14:57There needs to be a capacity study that

15:00financials that go into that and then if

15:06do some upgrades on our end that

15:12are comfortable saying that we can do solar ready

15:17the bearing capacity to eventually take on solar

15:25just can't say that we're going to be able to plop

15:30the utility company to confirm capacity and then

15:37um accretive to us. Uh dedicated pickup for trash

15:48we did a tree survey, so we went out, surveyed

15:53later when I walk through some of the changes

15:59at the site that we provided. I think we

16:04really bring the site together um and provide

16:11our residents and to the public. Um and then three

16:19on Friday. We sent everything in, so DPW comment

16:26and I know another one just came in, so we do

16:32um comments back as expeditiously as possible.

16:39And the beta peer review um we worked with um all

16:48everything was all of our responses

16:52but we'll welcome any other additional

16:58So, that leads into some of the site plan updates

17:06quick overview, up top is what we initially

17:12and I'll walk through kind of each one in

17:19most excited about is what we're calling this

17:26So, essentially So, as it is today, the

17:32We are proposing bringing that sidewalk interior

17:39a row of trees kind of striping Newport

17:45some nice beauty for not only our residents,

17:52to the office park out across the street from us.

17:59Newport Avenue extension towards the T station.

18:06showing what we're looking to do. As you can

18:11and we're just bumping that in, planning some nice

18:18space from cars and then also some additional

18:26This is, you know, looking up towards the 150

18:32is today. And then, this is what we are proposing,

18:39like. So, before {slash} current. And then,

18:49And then, kind of a front-facing shot, you

18:55which is closest to the MBTA's MBTA station, and

19:04This is what it would look like, you know, as

19:09So, a lot a more greenery, especially front

19:18Next up is the kind of National Grid land that

19:25two sites. So, very pleased to say we've reached

19:31was able to get through all their I think it was

19:38we were proposing. So, we are under agreement to

19:45see it used to be just a strip that we had to cut

19:50to actually connect the sites. Um so, I know that

19:56was how are these sites connected on the interior?

20:04that allowed us to shuffle some parking spaces

20:10some landscape islands. We chose to bunch all

20:17Avenue extension. So, that can be a seating

20:23trees for anyone who just wants to plop down as

20:29Um and then we were able to get rid of we

20:35backwards L-shaped building to A and as you can

20:44that came down into that courtyard. We're able

20:50we haven't lost any parking spaces and open that

20:58um larger courtyard that also connects

21:03everything just kind of works better um site

21:11that land and uh we think it's a great great win

21:18Uh another comment that came up was what's

21:24So, we provided even more of a buffer with some

21:30property line and then we're proposing doing some

21:39of the site will be a little bit more depressed

21:44um as you can see in the bottom left picture um

21:50go back there and plant whatever they do. I'm not

21:58about gardening. Um and then we have our dog park

22:05so, it's just more thought put into the

22:12And then as I alluded to earlier, Copley

22:18of all the existing trees and kind of the

22:24Um those are trees that we all think

22:29verifying their health once we

22:33And so, that's almost 40 trees that we'll be able

22:39uh including that one kind of in the bottom right

22:47Um on the 100 parcel um we didn't elect to do

22:57did do that and provided, you know, another tree

23:02of those existing trees that you see we're able

23:08it on the 100 side. And then in addition to

23:14adding over 300 new trees. So a lot more green has

23:26And those are that's those are all the updates

23:33anyone has. Any members of the board have any

23:40I have to ask some questions. Please excuse me,

23:46I don't mean to. Uh on the MBTA comment, you said

23:52Mhm. An encouraging email. Yep. Are you going

23:56they have it? Is it here? Uh I shared it with

24:01can pass it along as well. Okay. And then um and

24:08anything like that, but have you guys filed

24:13So with these updated plans that we just submitted

24:18with with the Conservation Commission. I applaud

24:22think that looks nice. The elevated plantings,

24:27it floods back there, the water can go underneath

24:32We know that, right? So when I was a younger man,

24:37South and I remember winters down there going

24:43off of Newport Avenue. And then when you got about

24:47that the bump was there because that's where the

24:53so that didn't sink, but the road sank. And

24:57they're all kind of like getting squished down.

25:02all your buildings, not just one building, up on a

25:08Cuz I'm a little nervous that like 10 years

25:13I'm thinking about building settling. Uh cuz this

25:19on a pedestal and you're driving piles down to

25:25going to take the load of the building, and plus

25:30count that load, at least it won't sink if it's on

25:36open up more of the area, so it won't And I And I

25:43I don't like to see a lot of parking and black

25:48auto factory parking lot, you know what

25:52elevated up, just like I mentioned before, put it

25:58and give the people in the other buildings a

26:02apartment flooded, cuz it's going to flood. I

26:07of climate change. So, you didn't mention

26:11I was kind of hoping you'd say that. I like I

26:16that's good, they won't wash away, but I

26:21any discussion? I know you were talking to the

26:27Right, so that's down the the south end of the

26:32right side here. Now, is there any discussion

26:38down to the north end of the property as well, so

26:44get over to without going to the T. If they didn't

26:50they have a pedestrian flyover further down

26:54it doesn't go over the track I don't believe that

26:59put some type of a connector so it could

27:03people in the northern part of the property and

27:08over so they could go over to the Hancock Street

27:13on the other side of the street and try and bring

27:17I'm not trying to pick on you at all, but it's

27:22these buildings sink in 10 years. Mhm. And

27:27you know, some type of a an underground

27:32So to that point about the building sinking, well,

27:39elevation 12 or higher and the flood zone AE is

27:48the first floor is at 2 ft higher and we

27:54the flooding concern. So we feel very comfortable

27:59units in our property. Um and then to [clears

28:08the building on the right is the one that's

28:13and I don't want to sound like a broken record,

28:19very significant cost implications to those and

28:25one level and then things have changed a lot in

28:30make these deals work. So um while it would

28:37you know, with a podium floor, it we

28:43Um but I will say that our entire design team

28:49soils that we are putting these buildings on has

28:55don't sink and we have a great construction team

28:59they won't. So, are you going to do slab on grade

29:04underneath the slab? Cuz obviously, you're not

29:08pedestals cuz you're going to tell me it cost too

29:12you. All right? So, you're going to at least put

29:19though they say it won't sink, but if you have

29:23There there will be ground improvements that

29:29Um so, the ground will be heavily tested to make

29:36without tested? How? Compression test? Mhm. You're

29:41type of a standard tonnage test on top of piles

29:47but they go through a lot of modeling to make sure

29:55you know, negative impacts as you're saying 10,

30:01our buildings are built to last. So, um I won't

30:08But I like to think that my children will be

30:12right? Yep. So, I'm not trying to pick on you,

30:15right? And you know, I I love the idea

30:20You know, we need housing. I'm I'm all for it

30:24actually so much parking if we're this close to a

30:30encouraging people to walk to the T? Wasn't

30:35Just threw it out there. That's all. Again, you

30:41Appreciate it. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Do

30:48the last time you presented, I was had a question

30:54you're basing your data on. Mhm. Is that still

31:03That is we have and Nick, you can come up and

31:11with our survey of the existing site, we have

31:17which is a little bit more accurate than what FEMA

31:22you know, real-time data. Um and as

31:28filing with conservation, so I'm sure that will

31:35Any further questions?

31:39No more questions? Can I I I just thought

31:44Um so talking to the MBTA and you received an

31:50Did they also give you because I know it's pretty

31:55That's the zone of influence. That's the

31:58those are together. Thank you. Yep. So no

32:05but it's a public hearing. Do any

32:19[cough]

32:20All right. Good evening, Mr. Chairman, members

32:263 resident and city councilor. I'm here on behalf

32:32Uh much of what I have to say was covered in

32:39of questions. So, I'm going to try to go through

32:44for to be on record. Uh but I'll try not to be

32:50Um so just as a as a form of context back in

32:57March, April. We I hosted a community

33:03offered up their professionals, the city offered

33:08Uh we had a really good turnout and I had

33:12residents, many of which I shared with

33:16Um and then after that meeting, this

33:22the project that was presented in July didn't

33:28of resident feedback and my feedback, which is

33:34So, that's the context for why we are

33:46Okay, covered all that. [cough] So, in the

33:49in the email that I had sent in to the board

33:53were carried over from my previous email, which

33:59So, all I'm going to do is go through and I'm

34:01it was already covered and then I'm going

34:06he and I have been collaborating since I would say

34:14facilitate the conversation about this project as

34:20that with traffic that all of us I don't think

34:25doesn't have to contend with that whether it's

34:30for that reason um representative Ayers and I have

34:37one of the main things is the size of the project.

34:41a lot of uh diff- cars and traffic to increase

34:47I'll acknowledge that this

34:53probably does have a lower impact than fully fully

34:59which I think took over 1,000 spaces and everyone

35:04much more contention, but it does offer challenges

35:11that was done in March did reflect that. And

35:20I reached out to Tremont Crossing and asked it to

35:27on their traffic study. And uh as Representative

35:39Mr. Chairman, may I? Good afternoon, everyone. Uh

35:44opportunity to speak uh tonight. Uh I also want

35:49advocacy on this project. Um our offices have been

35:56and state will share jurisdiction. Although this

36:02um the potential traffic impacts on the

36:07jurisdiction. Tonight, um I'm asking uh Mr.

36:15requiring the applicant to conduct a supplement uh

36:22the project's approval. Um Mr. Chairman, in the

36:29uh seven it addresses seven intersections that

36:35analyze developments in the impact on the traffic

36:43I believe an additional analysis would

36:47and the state work together to address these

36:53um a supplemental study could evaluate vehicle

37:00congested along the surrounding corridor, the

37:05intersections, including Route 3A, Hancock Street,

37:12I think all of us have um including myself been

37:18I hear from my constituents all the time uh in

37:23about the delays that they have to uh go

37:29about 2 weeks ago it was a rainy day. I took

37:34Uh the the commuters experience significant

37:41is uh a regional a regional uh gateway, but it

37:48public transportation. And this would only help

37:54the congestion in and around 3D 3A, Hancock Street

38:01and the state has also been advancing

38:06and the Neponset Circle on the Boston side. A

38:11could provide important information and additional

38:15the city and the state understand the area's

38:21opportunities to improve the public safety, reduce

38:28options, and determine the appropriate traffic

38:35Mr. Chairman and members of the board you

38:44Thank you representative Ayers for for

38:50So, I'll continue my remarks. It was the

38:55and I want to acknowledge the applicant's efforts

39:05particularly the acquisition of the

39:10when when it was when we were in discussions

39:14something [snorts] that I'd like to see them

39:20because I think it could give them the opportunity

39:26a lot easier, but number two it enables them to

39:32of the green spaces in the center of the campus

39:38With respect to parking, I've heard a lot

39:43two exactly opposing schools of thoughts.

39:50some feel that parking needs to be increased. I do

39:57when it comes to comparing similar sites

40:03and looking at the ratio of bedroom to

40:09in a in a layperson's perspective when it comes to

40:15sense and I want a successful development if we're

40:21The other thing that came up in our community

40:27condenser units. And the response from

40:32cuz that equipment on the buildings right now are

40:38left on the illustration on the screen is very

40:4320 ft high, and so they have direct sort of line

40:48can hear them coming on and turning off and so

40:53that the newer units are are much more quiet than

40:59make sure we had on record. [clears throat] Let's

41:04ones we've already covered. The applicant has

41:09affordable housing units. Um the green space I've

41:17acquiring that additional 5,000 sq ft of

41:23The one thing that I'll amend to the green space,

41:29a neighbor of mine, and that is how does this

41:34tree ordinance, which requires 50% of the parking

41:40um 3311-4C within our tree ordinance.

41:47the planning board on that. Uh it was our

41:53uh mentioned earlier and and pedestrian walkways.

41:58towards I would say the southern section of this

42:07the streets. I can imagine that to be a much

42:11and people who work nearby getting to the T

42:17uh the the major roadway and and the

42:22passing cars. So, that's very much appreciated.

42:28uh that include that not only includes a

42:34but also the vertical pathways. I hope they

42:39And let's see. I think that covers most of I

42:47sorry. Board members remarks, that covers every

42:53um this project is very important to a lot

42:58project specifically, but it impacts us mainly

43:05you know, the MBTA station. So, um that's with

43:13Any Any additional members of the

43:17[cough and clears throat]

43:25All right. Uh thank you for the

43:29Ryan Fassett. I live in Ward 3. Um thanks for

43:35opening up the public comment.

43:40board member your your comments earlier were

43:44these podium buildings, why can't we do more

43:50Yeah. Just kidding, Kev. Just kidding. No, and and

43:54to make anybody angry. It's just this is a huge

44:01done here is going to be pretty permanent. Uh you

44:07going to flood. We know sea level rise is coming.

44:13um right, they're talking about like a 100-year

44:17know 100-year floods are getting more and

44:21you know, we we probably need to go above and

44:26future flooding, climate change risk,

44:33Councilor brought up that there was a few people

44:38I couldn't agree with that or disagree with that

44:43spaces to actually hit the minimum, um which

44:48this development is right next to a T stop.

44:56parking. Um residents in that neighborhood in the

45:02about privacy, concerned about lights. Um it seems

45:07parking spaces, create some green space for those

45:12nice and uh cozy for them. Should be great. Um I

45:19to lease these properties, lease the property,

45:25metropolitan area planning council, they've done

45:33uh that the vacancy rate for apartments in

45:40you know, these are going not going to

45:44They're not going to have any issue leasing these

45:47selling these to a leasing agency or whatever kind

45:52Uh even if there is 20 less parking spaces,

45:59Uh ultimately, I think it's great

46:02Uh I'm an arborist, certified arborist, certified

46:10maybe we'll see board certified master arborist

46:15Quincy's good stuff going on here. I

46:20what species we're having planted. Um I know we're

46:26Quincy city code or something like that.

46:31going in in some of these islands. If it's

46:36they're not great trees. They're not

46:41so the vagueness of the landscaping plan needs to

46:46information and then I would feel comfortable

46:49pass the tree ordinance. Um ultimately, like I

46:54going to be huge for Quincy businesses. It's

46:58community that we can develop in these buildings

47:01still excited about them and I just hope we

47:07[cough and clears throat] Great.

47:18Favor and oppose sheets and pens. Oh, and and

47:23sill if you would like to favor or oppose, you

47:36Uh just Mr. Chairman, if I might uh

47:41Counselor Hubley have a reasonable request for a

47:48River Bridge and my client has agreed to do that.

47:53weeks, I would imagine. And the team is here if

48:00Are there any dis- if I could Yes. If I may, thank

48:04a on just a great process here. Thank you uh

48:10the last meeting a a citizen engineer, and I

48:16for the Neponset River Bridge. Any

48:21It was pretty impressive. And it did just came

48:26Came from a resident. And uh it was really clever.

48:36representative Ayers is looking to do this study.

48:42involved in I think are great. I I like the I

48:49access to the uh power grid behind you. That's a

48:58to remember Shawn Siza's idea about a flyover.

49:04the hook for that because of everything that be

49:08yards. But as we look at the study, as as we move

49:15and traffic in general, you've done everything

49:20And that's that's a bear of a process. I know what

49:26now might be the time to just look at that

49:32in this area? The answer might just be no. And

49:38you've got we've got these 520 odd units that

49:43and all the restaurants and businesses are on

49:47would it be something the MBTA had you

49:53and it just never happened. You know, so I just

49:57further traffic studies and so forth with the

50:03taking a look at what Mr. Shanahan recommended

50:10if if everything came back and said it would make

50:15again, I'm not putting you guys on the hook

50:18we can build a little act I mean, we can we

50:24maybe it's something for the MBTA to look

50:28to to to bridge that divide literally, you know,

50:34be necessary, but now would be the time certainly

50:41Any further comment or questions from the board?

50:51as far as the department have any recommendation

50:56at this time. Um as I believe the board has

51:01and responses have more or less come in in the

51:06enough time to fully comprehend those comments,

51:13some additional time to work through that. Uh we

51:17office uh to reach out and work directly with

51:24the flooding concerns and issues that have been

51:29as next week and the recommendation would be one

51:37and would be back here before the board at that

51:43meeting. I'll make a motion. Second that.

51:52Can you change to November 18th, correct?

51:57than we normally meet because of the Veterans

54:40[clears throat] [laughter]

54:44Good evening, Mr. Chairman, members

54:48Um, me and Minh Van is the business partner. We

54:54about a year and a half ago. I'm also the project

55:02um, from Hardy Man Design Group. Uh, he's a

55:07the site and drainage designs. And we also

55:13for the traffic engineer portion, uh, who did the

55:207 through 11 Burns Ave, it's an existing five-unit

55:27uh, wood frame structure, uh, with a basement.

55:34uh, total of 8,739 sq ft. And to the left

55:43sewer easement. I'm not sure if it's still

55:49the property at the back, the laundromat building.

55:55has two bedrooms and one bath. There's one

56:01two units in the on the first floor,

56:07So, this property is located in the Business B

56:14um Business B and Res B on zone. Uh we're abutting

56:25And then, there's other um residential building

56:31Um Burns Ave is actually a one-way street. So,

56:39Chuck Charles Mom and enter into um Burns

56:45what we're proposing tonight here is to demolish

56:52and then propose to construct a three-story wood

56:59apartment building uh with 14 um on-grade parking

57:08Uh the ground floor will contain 14 parking space

57:16plus one bath unit. And then, on the second floor,

57:25And then, also on the third floor, uh we'll have

57:31These unit range approximately

57:39the

57:42the proposal itself on the outside calls for

57:51portion of the structure will have a basement for

57:58rooms such as sprinkler rooms, fire alarms, and um

58:07Um the the front yard actually um for the zone

58:1415 ft, which is sort of a a modest setback um in

58:23on the houses that's currently on that street. So

58:31um neighborhood community meeting back in

58:36And the comments were quite positive.

58:43this proposal will require some um dimensional

58:49which will submit through the department in the

58:56traffic characteristics, um adding additional two

59:03uh the vehicle trip projection is very de minimis

59:11in vehicle um is 12 during the weekdays and

59:20the two additional units for this project

59:27And I I also have um Chi Man here to explain

59:42Good evening. For the record, my name is Chi.

59:47From Hady Man Design Group. Professional

59:53the site currently site has no drainage control.

1:00:02hit the ground, it's going to be pretty much

1:00:09All the runoff will be either from

1:00:13ground and drain out to the street and then

1:00:21conditions, we are going to be proposing

1:00:30and the driveway is going to be

1:00:34the porous pavements, they are open grade

1:00:41drain through the pavement and we have a reservoir

1:00:48of crushed stone layer that will actually store

1:00:57On top of that, the roof runoff will be collected

1:01:10the little rectangle area under the building.

1:01:18overall building footprint. So, the the roof

1:01:25directly into the infiltration system. This

1:01:33a depth of about 1.8 ft. Um we did have um test

1:01:42water elevations and also the soil characteristic

1:01:50Um so, the run off is

1:01:57into the drainage infiltration system

1:02:06control manhole um outlet control manhole which

1:02:13orifice. So, it's controlled the the run off going

1:02:22majority of the water on site for infiltration

1:02:31through a 4-in pipe that go into um the street

1:02:37run off leaving our site um to mitigate the storm

1:02:48because with the infiltrations, we actually also

1:02:55we can um provide the TSS and phosphor removal.

1:03:04water they can do direct infiltrations. The

1:03:10be drained towards the the trench drain

1:03:18you know, on the rainy day, you don't really get

1:03:23those are more like, you know, um you [snorts]

1:03:32the the liquid collect under the building

1:03:40run off per se. And those are going to be

1:03:45oil and gas separator, a gas trap, uh be treated,

1:03:54Um again, G mentioned there's a sewer easement on

1:04:03site into the burn Burns Ave. So, our building

1:04:11sewer. We intend to uh keep that sewer in place.

1:04:18um the owner is going to work out the ease-

1:04:27fire protection connection will be connecting into

1:04:34anticipate um you know, very high demand. And the

1:04:46to need a pad mount transformer. In this case, you

1:04:52require They usually have a pole mount

1:04:57a pole mount transformer. It probably go

1:05:03Um so, based on our calculations, the peak rate of

1:05:13achieving about 30 to 40% reductions on on

1:05:20the volume wise is 45 to 50%. So, it's going to be

1:05:28runoff control. And I'm happy with any questions.

1:05:39Where is the property line? I thought the the

1:05:45Uh just just off the parking lot. The parking

1:05:54Are they Are they in favor of this? Have you

1:06:00with our neighbor and he's in favor. There's

1:06:12Any other questions? Um for seven

1:06:17Do you think So, you're not going

1:06:21just individual residential trash units?

1:06:26private So, so that that that room alone is uh

1:06:35probably about five of them. Okay. Um those are

1:06:42and those seems to work. Okay. Tho- tho- those

1:06:48need more, then we'll just add the frequency.

1:06:55in the front house. Is that going to be preserved?

1:07:02to to for this proposal. Okay. And then will

1:07:08And you'll be providing that to

1:07:20So, this currently there's a big tree

1:07:27And this this is the proposed um rendering of the

1:07:37and additional trees in the back um based on the

1:07:43will add those uh additional trees. There's

1:07:50Uh unfortunately, that that

1:07:56you know, in position that we we cannot be able

1:08:08And we'll we'll need some distance away

1:08:21Is there any other questions?

1:08:25No, thank you.

1:08:28Uh no further questions of the board. It's uh

1:08:33wish to speak, questions, or comments?

1:08:42Just state your full recognized

1:08:44my name is Jennifer Ryan. I live on Safford Street

1:08:51that I would have a vested interest. Um I'm

1:08:57next to a business district. And so, I'm very

1:09:04very close to my property, [clears throat] and

1:09:08curious about the um property owners on the other

1:09:14and I am curious about um I the tree ordinance

1:09:23Um and the little trees on the landscape

1:09:27Um and so um just considering the the neighbors on

1:09:34um near Quincy that are just paved over um

1:09:39Quincy doesn't become um um continuously more

1:09:46more opportunity to be able to preserve green

1:09:50become a denser and denser place to live. That's

1:09:58Are there any other members of

1:10:04Um and uh Mr. Stevens, have we received

1:10:09uh receive a communication from Councilor

1:10:15uh for the 7 to 11 Burns Ave project. Good

1:10:22uh Vice Chair Kelly, and members of the Planning

1:10:307 to 11 Burns Ave. I apologize, I have a

1:10:36held a community meeting on this proposal on March

1:10:45to the neighborhood over the building currently

1:10:50city departments as well, and understand the board

1:10:56uh will likely be continued to another meeting.

1:11:00up tonight by constituents, I'll look forward to

1:11:07Richard Ash, Quincy Councillor, Ward 2. Uh so,

1:11:13Um as far as the project, the department

1:11:19to December 9th uh to allow for that review to

1:11:25recommendation. Is there a motion to continue

1:12:17uh that has received Zoning Board of Appeal uh

1:12:24is for 1600 Crown Colony Drive, uh and that's

1:12:31uh site into two uh parcels. Uh so, all

1:12:39The final business item is everybody should have

1:12:45schedule. Uh so, we'll look to take up a vote

1:12:51second Wednesdays of the month after the COVID

1:12:59The summer meetings we laid out either July 14th

1:13:07depending on the workflow, but we usually try

1:13:14the one summer meeting and we push that towards

1:13:20that could be July 28th or one possibility

1:13:26And then no August meeting. So that again is

1:13:33Take a look, put some thought into it, feel free

1:13:37you know we'll look to get into a little

1:13:40a vote on that schedule at next
