good we can do that um 90 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,120 one more bit of administrative advice 91 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,840 which I don't uh think 92 00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:21,239 applies um for the members here today uh 93 00:04:21,239 --> 00:04:22,479 some concerns have been brought to my 94 00:04:22,479 --> 00:04:23,759 attention about whether board members 95 00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:25,520 can participate and vote on this case if 96 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,160 they have not been present at all 97 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,039 sessions uh this stems from rule uh 98 00:04:30,039 --> 00:04:32,720 sorry section 2932 C3 which states that 99 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,600 all actions or decisions of the board 100 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,120 shall be taken by resolution in which 101 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,320 three members present during the 102 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,400 proceedings must concur concur um our 103 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,560 folks with a legal background have 104 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,080 stated this they believe that this means 105 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,600 only board members who have attended all 106 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,280 sessions for case 20233 can sign their 107 00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:49,880 name to the board's decision um by my 108 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,800 count we've had 18 distinct meetings for 109 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,840 this case uh it's been over 500 Days 110 00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:55,160 since the first hearing nearly a year 111 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,600 and a half uh the rules that govern this 112 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,080 board unsurprisingly don't handle 113 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,800 situations like this well uh members of 114 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,280 this board of volunteers who have 115 00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:05,280 dedicated significant time uh outside of 116 00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:06,520 their home and work to improve the town 117 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,320 of ches beach as best they can um as we 118 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,880 proceed if other members uh aside from 119 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,880 us three uh should attend later sessions 120 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,400 um it's my intent to allow them to vote 121 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,639 as they see fit and in the event we end 122 00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:22,919 up in a split decision we will revisit 123 00:05:22,919 --> 00:05:27,360 how that applies to uh the 290 32c rule 124 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,880 that was just read okay that's neither 125 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,440 here nor there since all of us have 126 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,759 attended um okay uh we are ready to 127 00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:37,919 begin deliberation at this point in time 128 00:05:37,919 --> 00:05:41,199 I would entertain a motion to begin 129 00:05:41,199 --> 00:05:43,280 deliberation I move to begin 130 00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:45,720 deliberation I'll second that all in 131 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,479 favor okay 132 00:05:48,479 --> 00:05:53,400 um so I think the board has heard a lot 133 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:58,919 over these past meetings um and the kind 134 00:05:58,919 --> 00:06:00,639 of the first thing thing I guess I would 135 00:06:00,639 --> 00:06:03,199 like to do is offer an open session to 136 00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:05,880 board members um I'd imagine this would 137 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,520 be more along the lines of an informal 138 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:15,000 narrative for your full understanding of what you've seen so far um you don't 139 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,080 have to but we've been sitting quietly 140 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,319 for a long time would you like to wrap 141 00:06:20,319 --> 00:06:22,280 up your interpretation of of what's 142 00:06:22,280 --> 00:06:23,479 happened here so far in a couple 143 00:06:23,479 --> 00:06:25,960 sentences or should we 144 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,000 just not I don't think a couple 145 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,120 sentences suffices so for me that 146 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,800 doesn't really 147 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,080 apply yeah 148 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,479 I I I wrote a lot of notes here and it 149 00:06:38,479 --> 00:06:39,639 might be 150 00:06:39,639 --> 00:06:42,240 helpful I've got a little 151 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,120 um I don't know what you want to call 152 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,639 sequence of 153 00:06:45,639 --> 00:06:48,280 events right so let let me read this if 154 00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:49,680 I 155 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,479 can 156 00:06:51,479 --> 00:06:54,360 um so the so the appal on submitted the 157 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,319 site plans January 29th 19 or 158 00:06:57,319 --> 00:07:00,440 2021 and some of those plans were in the 159 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,400 critical area the town 160 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,280 code states that uh the commission the 161 00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:08,000 planning zoning commission must decide 162 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,599 on a site plan in the critical are 163 00:07:09,599 --> 00:07:10,960 within 60 164 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,960 days before that 60 days 165 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,520 expired the Town Council passed a 166 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,840 resolution placing a moratorium on 167 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,840 review of category one site 168 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,639 plans the moratorium was recommended by 169 00:07:24,639 --> 00:07:26,440 the Planning and Zoning commission as a 170 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,759 temporary moratorium to last no more 171 00:07:28,759 --> 00:07:30,520 than 12 months 172 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,160 the resolution passed by the Town 173 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,960 Council also stated described it as 174 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,039 temporary but with the expectation would 175 00:07:38,039 --> 00:07:39,960 last nine 176 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,879 months um but then as the nine months 177 00:07:42,879 --> 00:07:44,840 was about to expire the Town Council 178 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,639 took a positive action to extend it a 179 00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:49,039 three additional 180 00:07:49,039 --> 00:07:51,639 months that action implied to me that 181 00:07:51,639 --> 00:07:56,800 the moratorium was still viewed as 182 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,240 temporary with a specific duration but 183 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,000 then at the end of the 12 months it just 184 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,000 continued with no action by the Council 185 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,039 on the 186 00:08:04,039 --> 00:08:06,879 resolution so so at that point it 187 00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:08,680 appeared to me to have become a 188 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,960 moratorium of indefinite duration with no end in 189 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,240 sight it was not until a year later that 190 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,440 the moratorium was formally lifted by 191 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,120 the council so duration of approximately 192 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,840 two 193 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,599 years uh prior to that time the 194 00:08:27,599 --> 00:08:29,479 appellant attempted to have their case 195 00:08:29,479 --> 00:08:31,399 Ed by the board of 196 00:08:31,399 --> 00:08:34,719 appeals uh I believe it was in 197 00:08:34,719 --> 00:08:38,200 2022 um the their application for an 198 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,719 appeal was was 199 00:08:39,719 --> 00:08:43,839 refused turned back and the appellant 200 00:08:43,839 --> 00:08:46,000 filed with the Circuit Court to obtain a 201 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,399 court order to have this case 202 00:08:49,399 --> 00:08:52,279 heard so so in my mind that that it's an 203 00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:54,920 unusual chain of 204 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,800 events the other thing the other 205 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,240 statement I wanted to make is that you 206 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,279 know reading a a close reading of the 207 00:09:03,279 --> 00:09:06,519 code that that empowers this 208 00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:09,880 board um specifically appeals of this 209 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,120 type is that 210 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,640 um we are empowered to rule on Errors By 211 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,959 The by the administrator or 212 00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:21,839 Commission on determinations decisions 213 00:09:21,839 --> 00:09:24,640 or orders resulting from errors of 214 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,560 interpretation of the zoning 215 00:09:26,560 --> 00:09:28,560 code when they are acting in 216 00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:30,560 administrative Capac 217 00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:33,440 capacity so it seems to me to to focus 218 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:34,640 the 219 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,360 discussion we should look at those 220 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,560 points where a decision or action was 221 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:43,480 made and whether that resulted from a 222 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,399 misinterpretation of the 223 00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:49,320 code and then we can rule on 224 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:55,800 that um in few words I agree with you um 225 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,680 this doesn't really fit with the 226 00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:01,640 timeline of events but one of the things 227 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:06,800 I'm I'm concerned about is kind of 228 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,279 treating our decisions in like a domino 229 00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:11,200 effect right where if we 230 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,040 decide 231 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,920 that um there was an 232 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,120 error that the Domino falls into places 233 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,079 that we may not have oversight right 234 00:10:23,079 --> 00:10:26,480 like a Town Council decision or 235 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:27,959 ordinance or 236 00:10:27,959 --> 00:10:32,680 resolution um those to me felt like they 237 00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:36,480 followed from a potential decision from 238 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,399 either the 239 00:10:37,399 --> 00:10:40,720 administrator planning zoning but I'm 240 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,399 very hesitant to let that domino fall 241 00:10:44,399 --> 00:10:46,200 and knock over for the ones that seem 242 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,560 outside the scope of this board um does 243 00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:50,519 that make 244 00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:54,040 sense I'm not sure I'm following you so 245 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,200 I'm I'm hesitant to make any 246 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,959 determinations regarding ordinances and 247 00:10:59,959 --> 00:11:01,600 resolutions 248 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,920 from the 249 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,040 town I'm I'm not say like I'm my my view 250 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,790 of it is is 251 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,279 that our Focus or our 252 00:11:16,279 --> 00:11:20,519 Authority is limited to decisions 253 00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:25,279 actions made by the the the zoning 254 00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:29,360 administrator or the commission 255 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,160 we have no say in any decisions or 256 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,040 actions outside of 257 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,560 that decisions and actions made by the 258 00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:40,120 Town Council by the 259 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:49,790 mayor I I don't think that's within our 260 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,760 jurisdiction so I 261 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,360 think I think that you guys are I'm kind 262 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,360 of tracking with both y'all in in 263 00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,800 different ways 264 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,639 um but I think 265 00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:04,120 that we do need to look at a timeline 266 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,560 and see what decisions were made 267 00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:10,279 decisions by the the Planning and Zoning 268 00:12:10,279 --> 00:12:13,079 administrator commission right um but we 269 00:12:13,079 --> 00:12:15,360 also need to look and see what actually 270 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,480 is in our purview and that any of error 271 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,040 or uh 272 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,079 interpretation that we need to look into 273 00:12:24,079 --> 00:12:27,800 has to be within this chapter and so we 274 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,160 need to determine if there are any if 275 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,240 there are any decisions orders whatever 276 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,720 that we will say that there was an error 277 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,360 but then we also need need to make sure 278 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,480 that we are staying within the chapter 279 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:47,320 that we are zoning yeah Z yes and I 280 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,240 think that we need to decide if pieces 281 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,399 and parts are relevant to our case as 282 00:12:53,399 --> 00:12:56,720 they might be outside of that 283 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,720 chapter right so 284 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,160 are are certain pieces of this 285 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,720 moratorium a resolution are they outside 286 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,000 of the chapter and if they 287 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,040 are is that even in our purview so we 288 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,320 need to find those critical points see 289 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,279 if criteria is met and see if it even 290 00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:20,360 pertains to 291 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,160 us I I think there were two critical 292 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,360 points one is when the um when the plans 293 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,199 were first submitted in 2020 294 00:13:31,199 --> 00:13:34,360 21 the time period between when it was 295 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,639 submitted and when the moratorium was 296 00:13:37,639 --> 00:13:40,079 passed by the 297 00:13:40,079 --> 00:13:43,829 council I think once 298 00:13:43,839 --> 00:13:46,440 the it was out of the hands of the 299 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,199 zoning administrator out of the hands of 300 00:13:48,199 --> 00:13:50,560 the zoning 301 00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:52,920 commission so anything that happened 302 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,240 during that 303 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:59,310 moratorium I think is out of our purview 304 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,320 yeah and and our Focus the second point 305 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,360 is when the moratorium was 306 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,199 lifted that those were the two that 307 00:14:08,199 --> 00:14:10,360 stood out to me too was that that period 308 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,639 in which um prior to any discussion by 309 00:14:13,639 --> 00:14:15,000 the Town Council about 310 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,399 moratoriums uh how how the applications 311 00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:19,759 were 312 00:14:19,759 --> 00:14:23,959 handled um and then again if we believe 313 00:14:23,959 --> 00:14:26,800 that the moratorium expired um my my 314 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,199 notes Here say that you could you could 315 00:14:28,199 --> 00:14:32,040 take this from two sides one is um that 316 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,800 yeah they the the Town Council got 317 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,519 together and voted and extended it and 318 00:14:35,519 --> 00:14:37,079 then those extensions 319 00:14:37,079 --> 00:14:40,120 expired um and that that might be uh 320 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:41,759 more from the perspective of the Roden 321 00:14:41,759 --> 00:14:44,639 reel and then the town might get 322 00:14:44,639 --> 00:14:45,639 together and 323 00:14:45,639 --> 00:14:49,120 say um that they it doesn't end until 324 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,519 they voted on March 16th of 2023 to 325 00:14:53,519 --> 00:14:55,480 actually formally terminate the 326 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,000 moratorium 327 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,279 and it's it's a bit of 328 00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:04,120 a you know I don't really know what uh 329 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,440 which ones 330 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,839 uh yeah yeah I I don't feel that that 331 00:15:10,839 --> 00:15:12,360 the 332 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,759 moratorium The Way It Was Written the 333 00:15:14,759 --> 00:15:18,269 wording I I don't 334 00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:20,240 think there would be there was an 335 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,000 automatic 336 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,720 expiration you don't think it expired I 337 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,040 don't think it expired by itself okay I 338 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,600 think it expired when the 339 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,759 Council passed the resolution in March 340 00:15:32,759 --> 00:15:35,839 of 20 lifting the 341 00:15:35,839 --> 00:15:40,309 moratorium 342 00:15:40,319 --> 00:15:43,800 okay in that case that takes away one of 343 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,399 my two the two points where I think we 344 00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:48,880 had to consider something was the the 345 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,480 second of which was if the moratorium 346 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,160 expired and 347 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,800 the new zoning map and the implementing 348 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,399 ordinances weren't passed and there was 349 00:15:57,399 --> 00:16:00,519 a a gap between an expiration of a 350 00:16:00,519 --> 00:16:02,560 moratorium 9 months plus three however 351 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,920 you want to math it out and then the 352 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,839 pickup of the um the zoning changes that 353 00:16:08,839 --> 00:16:10,680 was one of my second kind of inflection 354 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,720 points 355 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,959 but yeah 356 00:16:14,959 --> 00:16:24,120 I can't say I feel strongly about 357 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:30,230 either either argument 358 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,920 well let's talk about the the first 359 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,350 point in 360 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:41,389 time the this the site plans were 361 00:16:41,399 --> 00:16:44,000 submitted nothing happened with 362 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:48,199 them as far as seven weeks before the 363 00:16:48,199 --> 00:16:50,959 moratorium so was there an error there 364 00:16:50,959 --> 00:16:53,000 on the part of the zoning administrator 365 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,160 with a 366 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,560 commission was there an error of 367 00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,360 interpretation what what is there an 368 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:05,480 action or a decision I I think although 369 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,720 well a week after the site plans were 370 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,199 submitted zoning administrator sent out 371 00:17:12,199 --> 00:17:13,400 an 372 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,360 email 373 00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:18,240 to the response letter there there it 374 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,079 was an email right to to um Paul 375 00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:25,319 Woodburn with a cc to Mr 376 00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:29,840 Blitz stating that the the site plans 377 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,080 were 378 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,160 burdened a moratorium was being 379 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,600 considered I I think that's evidence of 380 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,360 a decision not to 381 00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:43,120 process the site plans at that 382 00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:47,520 time so the question is it was that as a 383 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,720 result of a misinterpretation of the 384 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,400 code yeah there was I can't remember the 385 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,120 line I'd have to it would take me some 386 00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:57,000 time to find it but there was also a 387 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,480 stipulation in 388 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,120 uh in the zoning was the ability of 389 00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:07,240 Staff members to consult with additional 390 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,919 parties 391 00:18:08,919 --> 00:18:13,640 um was was jabak I mean we can read into 392 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,360 his letter that he had discussed what 393 00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:18,280 was going on with other 394 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,120 parties um was he following his 395 00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:26,120 guidelines in making an appeal to the 396 00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:31,270 Town Council as part of his duy as was 397 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,320 you 398 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,679 know can you repeat that again sorry um 399 00:18:35,679 --> 00:18:37,840 yeah when 400 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,919 um inferring from the letter uh let me 401 00:18:42,919 --> 00:18:44,520 pull the date 402 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,600 on uh 25 pretty much the the second 403 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,640 letter after the second event after the 404 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,000 site planes were submitted uh it read to 405 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,840 me that jabak had uh reached out to 406 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,200 other members of the town to maybe 407 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,039 discuss what was happening given his 408 00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:07,039 workload and the plans for the um the 409 00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:08,520 comprehensive 410 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,039 plan and he went I'm inferring that he 411 00:19:12,039 --> 00:19:14,480 went and talked to them or sent them the 412 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,240 site plans or summarize the site 413 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,000 plans would that fall within his 414 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,320 authority to consult with 415 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,000 external agencies or I think I think the 416 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,320 official language is to like consult 417 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,240 with agencies or staff would Consulting 418 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,640 the Town Council 419 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,919 concerning this the action that they 420 00:19:38,919 --> 00:19:44,679 then took I don't know if I can say that was an error or if that was within 421 00:19:44,679 --> 00:19:49,750 his scope of authority as the zoning 422 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,400 administrator yeah it's there's a lot of 423 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,280 gray I'm not lay I don't remember any 424 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,000 documentation yeah I don't think there 425 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,280 was I don't think there 426 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,960 was um did you say there 427 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,960 was I remember reading about that I have 428 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,240 to 429 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,200 go did you hear that I just said that I 430 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,640 remember reading that I just would have 431 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,400 to go back and look where that actually 432 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,240 was written um you summarize what you 433 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,039 remember from that and we 434 00:20:19,039 --> 00:20:21,520 can just one the steps that they go and 435 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:26,520 consult with whatever I mean you have multiple plans to be looking 436 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,679 because you have to consult with 437 00:20:27,679 --> 00:20:29,480 multiple people about what's happening 438 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,240 with the plan right in general I don't 439 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:37,710 remember what I read at the moment um 440 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:43,960 but do you believe that moment in that letter that was 441 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,159 written was a pivotal moment and I know 442 00:20:48,159 --> 00:20:50,159 let's called it a pivot pivotal moment 443 00:20:50,159 --> 00:20:53,600 he said it the beginning of so in that 444 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,080 regard the beginning of the what 445 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,440 refusal right 446 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,520 too much stuff so 447 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,760 um but would you then think it was an 448 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,159 error because of timing because of 449 00:21:10,159 --> 00:21:13,840 obligation to look at it to what what 450 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,360 would cause that to be an error and I 451 00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:19,080 I'm wondering because I know that the 452 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,240 60-day mark that was brought up in this 453 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,720 case that they were obligated to fulfill 454 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,279 this their duties within 60 days um that 455 00:21:28,279 --> 00:21:29,840 was critical 456 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:35,320 areas um and I still I still am not 457 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,000 convinced that that actually pertains to 458 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,279 all site one plans um because in the 459 00:21:41,279 --> 00:21:44,880 general Provisions it does not have any 460 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,640 type of time frame associated with it 461 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,840 and to think that crit those plans 462 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,200 within a critical area had a deadline 463 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,520 that was more so than others is kind of 464 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,000 strange to me but I just don't know if 465 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,039 they were 466 00:21:59,039 --> 00:22:00,240 at least all five of them I don't know 467 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:01,760 if all five of them were required to 468 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,400 have that no yeah the the timing seemed 469 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,840 like a like maybe it wasn't a strict you 470 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,120 know but there's another aspect to it in 471 00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:15,520 that there this a 472 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,559 60-day time 473 00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:19,240 limit the 474 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,320 moratorium was imposed before that 60 475 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,640 days expired but was there a 60-day time 476 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,440 limit is what I'm is what I'm wondering 477 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,159 I don't Yeah the code uh see I don't 478 00:22:32,159 --> 00:22:33,320 know that it's that clear I didn't I 479 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,919 didn't read that that the my read of the 480 00:22:35,919 --> 00:22:40,200 code was section 290 d25 clearly says to 481 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,679 me that uh the commission must decide on 482 00:22:43,679 --> 00:22:45,720 a site plan in the critical area within 483 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,039 60 484 00:22:47,039 --> 00:22:49,080 days 485 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,720 so the ENT if you look at the 486 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,360 entire if you look at the the the 487 00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:59,080 chapter and you look at this article six 488 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,000 in its entirety everything is broken 489 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,000 into site one versus site two site one 490 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,279 versus site two um so I think that 491 00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:10,320 interpreting it yes it does say in that 492 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,200 statement it does say that they shall 493 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,159 approve a site plan within 60 days but 494 00:23:15,159 --> 00:23:17,440 it's also what is it that they're 495 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,559 referring to in there and if there's 496 00:23:20,559 --> 00:23:23,279 ambiguity in that I'm not saying that I 497 00:23:23,279 --> 00:23:25,960 need to be the person that determines 498 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,960 that wording but if you have a site one 499 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,200 plan that's not in a critical area and 500 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,039 then you have a site one plan that is in 501 00:23:33,039 --> 00:23:34,200 a critical 502 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,559 area to say that the one in the critical 503 00:23:36,559 --> 00:23:38,360 area needs to be processed within 60 504 00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:40,360 days but the one with that's not in a 505 00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:42,720 critical area yeah I doesn't have a time 506 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,520 frame that doesn't make sense to me I 507 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,679 just don't think that it's all inclusive 508 00:23:46,679 --> 00:23:48,360 because it's only within the critical 509 00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:52,240 area section and each section divides it 510 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,880 between category one and category 511 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,760 two so I'm still I personally still do 512 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,760 not believe that this 513 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,480 is the absolute uh interpretation of 514 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,679 this piece well even even if the 60-day 515 00:24:09,679 --> 00:24:12,950 limit did 516 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,960 apply 517 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,480 technically because the moratorium was 518 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,360 put in place before the end of the 60 519 00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:24,600 days technically there was not a 520 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,960 violation because once the moratorium 521 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,240 was in place 522 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,679 I don't think the administrator or the 523 00:24:30,679 --> 00:24:32,960 commission could do anything yeah I 524 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,960 think you could I mean not to there's a 525 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,200 lot of could have would a should of 526 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:39,760 things that that definitely could be 527 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:44,240 argued here but I'd have a if let's just 528 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,120 say 529 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:47,320 hypothetically that the moratorium was 530 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,520 passed and then Planning and Zoning got 531 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,360 up behind the lectern and said these 532 00:24:52,360 --> 00:24:54,919 plans are denied due to the 533 00:24:54,919 --> 00:24:56,960 moratorium I'm not sure if I could find 534 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,640 an error in that 535 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,039 but I don't believe that happened it 536 00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:02,520 didn't happen it didn't happen right 537 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,679 that's the that's the like there's kind 538 00:25:04,679 --> 00:25:07,039 of like this implicit decision that was 539 00:25:07,039 --> 00:25:10,000 made by having a 540 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,799 moratorium that that shortcut that I 541 00:25:12,799 --> 00:25:15,000 don't you know but maybe 542 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,840 that's I mean because of that because of 543 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,399 that sub you know the moratorium was put 544 00:25:21,399 --> 00:25:24,880 in place before the end of the 60 545 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,120 days I don't see an error of 546 00:25:27,120 --> 00:25:30,830 interpretation 547 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,039 it was certainly an action I I believe a 548 00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:35,399 decision by the administrator not to 549 00:25:35,399 --> 00:25:41,990 process the plans in anticipation of the 550 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,799 moratorium yeah but but you know he had 551 00:25:44,799 --> 00:25:49,559 60 days and um seven weeks went by they 552 00:25:49,559 --> 00:25:54,520 didn't get processed but then bang the the clock 553 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,679 stopped so technically I don't see an 554 00:25:57,679 --> 00:25:59,559 error 555 00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:01,679 yeah and and 556 00:26:01,679 --> 00:26:06,919 I yeah an error on behalf of yeah his 557 00:26:06,919 --> 00:26:09,039 it's a narrow reading of 558 00:26:09,039 --> 00:26:13,320 it I realize but uh but you know also 559 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,799 I'm I don't know if I can um Council 560 00:26:17,799 --> 00:26:20,799 indicated to me in a conversation 561 00:26:20,799 --> 00:26:25,480 that 60 days isn't a hard 562 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,600 deadline because there's no um 563 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:36,919 stated in the code do I what I said was that it could be argued 564 00:26:36,919 --> 00:26:39,520 that the 60 days was directory and not 565 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,840 mandatory because uh there was no 566 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,159 sanctions for failure to uh comply with 567 00:26:46,159 --> 00:26:49,279 that 60-day time frame now I'm not 568 00:26:49,279 --> 00:26:52,320 saying that's a a correct interpretation 569 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,559 but certainly is a uh viable 570 00:26:56,559 --> 00:26:58,440 interpretation and and you know it 571 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,320 doesn't the same thing applies to um 572 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,919 other site 573 00:27:02,919 --> 00:27:05,679 plans right 574 00:27:05,679 --> 00:27:08,679 there code the code doesn't have a time 575 00:27:08,679 --> 00:27:13,240 limit an explicit time limit for non-tic 576 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,039 site 577 00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:18,080 plans but then it also doesn't 578 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,919 say well I mean I guess it's a judgment 579 00:27:20,919 --> 00:27:24,600 call it has to be the plan should be 580 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,159 reviewed within a reasonable 581 00:27:27,159 --> 00:27:30,520 time there's no definition of that 582 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,640 code so in the event that there is not 583 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,559 an obligation to have a time period 584 00:27:36,559 --> 00:27:38,159 associated with 585 00:27:38,159 --> 00:27:41,470 it 586 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,039 was was the letter from jacc at that 587 00:27:45,039 --> 00:27:47,480 point then the question would be is it a 588 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,960 decision and was that decision was could 589 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,360 it have been attributed to error if 590 00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:54,120 there was no timeline associated with it 591 00:27:54,120 --> 00:27:57,240 right I'm just looking at it both ways 592 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,519 could since with that point 593 00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:04,640 but I mean yeah it's there's so many 594 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,799 directions I mean it's 595 00:28:06,799 --> 00:28:09,880 like they submitted their site plans and 596 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,120 didn't get an approval or denial they 597 00:28:12,120 --> 00:28:15,120 got something that looked like a 598 00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:18,399 denial is that like wasn't official it 599 00:28:18,399 --> 00:28:20,480 didn't have signatures on it I don't 600 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,240 know if it matters no I don't agree with 601 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,240 that I don't think it you could call it 602 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,600 a 603 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:31,789 denial um 604 00:28:31,799 --> 00:28:35,960 yeah could could not yeah I don't think I could call it a denial 605 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,919 it's just a lack of action 606 00:28:38,919 --> 00:28:45,950 okay not an not a denial not an 607 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,200 approval 608 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,080 yeah I mean does yeah I I don't I don't 609 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,919 really want to Devil's Advocate the 610 00:28:52,919 --> 00:28:55,710 whole thing 611 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,000 but okay so I mean head back to decision 612 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:00,600 points the second decision point was 613 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,600 when the mor torum was 614 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,279 lifted to 615 00:29:05,279 --> 00:29:12,399 rehear the to reopen this again the the site plans as they were submitted 616 00:29:12,399 --> 00:29:15,240 site plans review of the site plans was 617 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,279 not picked 618 00:29:17,279 --> 00:29:21,080 up now was there an error involved there 619 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,679 error Mis interpretation of the 620 00:29:24,679 --> 00:29:28,679 code was there a decision not to not to 621 00:29:28,679 --> 00:29:30,399 review the 622 00:29:30,399 --> 00:29:35,990 plans that's a little less clear to 623 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,399 me can I thr another Wrinkle In go for 624 00:29:38,399 --> 00:29:40,880 it yeah so um 625 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,960 jaak's letter stated two things though 626 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:49,120 um it stated that it was a an undue 627 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,399 burden to the commission because they 628 00:29:52,399 --> 00:29:54,600 were in the middle of the comprehensive 629 00:29:54,600 --> 00:30:02,320 plan so when the comprehensive plan was approved is that a point because I 630 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,799 mean this really that letter if that is 631 00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:07,279 the beginning of the refusal was two 632 00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:09,440 prongs it was the comprehensive plan 633 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,279 plus an upcoming moratorium which One 634 00:30:12,279 --> 00:30:16,840 jacu X letter exhibit 7 the February 5th 635 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,440 letter that said hey this is too much 636 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,240 for us to 637 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,360 do so there were two things that 638 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,640 happened there so in my opinion I made 639 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:28,760 note 640 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,440 that the comprehensive plan was approved 641 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,279 later on and that could 642 00:30:32,279 --> 00:30:35,440 be you remember what date that was my 643 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,269 note say April 21st 644 00:30:40,279 --> 00:30:42,440 2022 645 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,519 April was 646 00:30:44,519 --> 00:30:50,110 421 647 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,399 22 so just to throw something else in 648 00:30:53,399 --> 00:30:56,789 there 649 00:30:56,799 --> 00:30:58,480 thanks um 650 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:03,039 I mean like I kind of I I still like I 651 00:31:03,039 --> 00:31:04,559 feel like it all still comes back to the 652 00:31:04,559 --> 00:31:08,960 first event of not of of making a 653 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,600 decision not to approve or deny the 654 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,960 initial thing to kind of put it in this 655 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:14,240 gray 656 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,399 Zone um in which then led to the second 657 00:31:18,399 --> 00:31:19,840 point which is since it was neither 658 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,519 approved or denied is it still open and 659 00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:26,399 should be reop you know I feel 660 00:31:26,399 --> 00:31:29,480 yeah but I think think part of what's 661 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,919 getting me about this is that 662 00:31:32,919 --> 00:31:39,360 um the error is stated as um a Continuum 663 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:44,440 um that it is from January 29th 2021 664 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:49,559 till the date of the appeal so can can 665 00:31:49,559 --> 00:31:53,519 an error occur over that time period or 666 00:31:53,519 --> 00:31:55,600 is there a single event in which we are 667 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,080 actually talking about so I was thinking 668 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:58,559 about this one today 669 00:31:58,559 --> 00:32:00,919 and uh and I came up with an example and 670 00:32:00,919 --> 00:32:03,039 I'm going to I'm going to use our legal 671 00:32:03,039 --> 00:32:04,159 counsel and I'm going to say Fred you 672 00:32:04,159 --> 00:32:06,399 can you can holler me if I get this way 673 00:32:06,399 --> 00:32:10,440 off if I'm GNA do a crime I'm gonna 674 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,279 extort Fred right um extort I'm going to 675 00:32:14,279 --> 00:32:15,960 extort you I'm going to say give me a 676 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,240 bucket of money or I'm going to the 677 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,159 cops the harm and benefit would be 678 00:32:21,159 --> 00:32:23,960 ongoing you'd be out of your money and 679 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,480 I've got it but if this ever goes to 680 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,840 court um I think if it's a statute of 681 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,919 limitation things I only extorted you on 682 00:32:31,919 --> 00:32:35,240 one time right it's not like an ongoing 683 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,600 extortion I have your money which is the 684 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,840 harm and you're out of your money or 685 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,440 sorry you're out of the money which is 686 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,200 your harm and I have your money it's my 687 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,880 benefit but that still doesn't mean it's 688 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,159 an ongoing thing right it happened one 689 00:32:48,159 --> 00:32:51,200 time and I think that 690 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,799 means I don't know in this case it would 691 00:32:53,799 --> 00:32:56,320 be that that decision point was the 692 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,320 thing that would set something like a 693 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,120 statute of limitations where even if the 694 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,120 harm and benefit are still ongoing so I 695 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,679 guess that's a round about way of saying 696 00:33:06,679 --> 00:33:10,679 an example of how I don't really buy an 697 00:33:10,679 --> 00:33:13,600 ongoing event that the harm is ongoing 698 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,600 but the event itself happened 699 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,039 on either the date that jabak sent the 700 00:33:20,039 --> 00:33:22,880 letter back or the date that the 701 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,840 moratorium was passed however you want 702 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,960 to whichever whichever time frame you 703 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,519 think was the decision point there I 704 00:33:29,519 --> 00:33:31,760 think that's the 705 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,320 uh that's the event 706 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,159 right so that maybe says that it doesn't 707 00:33:39,159 --> 00:33:41,760 reopen if in the second inflection point 708 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,830 that you're talking about I don't 709 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,440 know well the question is should when 710 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,519 the moratorium was lifted should the 711 00:33:51,519 --> 00:33:53,039 zoning 712 00:33:53,039 --> 00:33:55,440 administrator have picked up review of 713 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,830 the site plans 714 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:00,639 he 715 00:34:00,639 --> 00:34:03,519 didn't should should he 716 00:34:03,519 --> 00:34:06,200 have there was a lot going on right the 717 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,839 comprehensive 718 00:34:07,839 --> 00:34:10,639 plan 719 00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:16,310 um well actually the comprehensive plan already been 720 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,599 passed but there was a lot of change 721 00:34:18,599 --> 00:34:20,079 there's a lot of code changes that were 722 00:34:20,079 --> 00:34:21,839 occurring ordinance ordinances being 723 00:34:21,839 --> 00:34:23,839 pass to implement it but they had 724 00:34:23,839 --> 00:34:26,399 already returned the fees and for all 725 00:34:26,399 --> 00:34:28,280 intents purposes believe believed it was 726 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,960 done so what was what were they supposed 727 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:35,879 to pick up at that time well well that's a good point because there was no 728 00:34:35,879 --> 00:34:38,960 there was formly no application in 729 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,200 place I think that one's fairly easy and 730 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:43,639 that 731 00:34:43,639 --> 00:34:45,800 it it shouldn't have been I I don't see 732 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:47,320 an error in not picking it up because 733 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,200 from the administrator's perspective it 734 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,839 was the issue was closed the event was 735 00:34:52,839 --> 00:34:56,000 done there was an attempt by the 736 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,240 appellant to 737 00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:00,320 have 738 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,720 the plans 739 00:35:02,720 --> 00:35:05,079 reviewed during the 740 00:35:05,079 --> 00:35:08,040 moratorium and that was rejected if I'm 741 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:14,470 if I remember 742 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,680 correctly I may be misre misremembering 743 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,680 there was there was an 744 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,040 event maybe it was the maybe it was an 745 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,119 appeal application the it was an 746 00:35:25,119 --> 00:35:26,640 application for the 747 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,480 appeal submitted in 2022 while the 748 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,280 moratorium was still in 749 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,440 place yeah I think I believe that's what 750 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,950 I'm thinking 751 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:42,119 of so the 752 00:35:42,119 --> 00:35:45,119 yeah 753 00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:47,560 um yeah because the appeal application 754 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,359 was filed June 24th 755 00:35:50,359 --> 00:35:52,200 2022 right so that's what you're 756 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:58,190 thinking of right yeah 757 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,640 thought I 758 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:04,589 remembered an attempt to have 759 00:36:04,599 --> 00:36:06,880 the plans 760 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,119 reviewed or a request to have the plans 761 00:36:10,119 --> 00:36:13,400 reviewed yeah so sometime after that 762 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,079 sometime after the moratorium is lifted 763 00:36:16,079 --> 00:36:18,839 so um I have in my notes the 764 00:36:18,839 --> 00:36:21,839 comprehensive plan was um approved April 765 00:36:21,839 --> 00:36:23,079 21st 766 00:36:23,079 --> 00:36:27,160 2022 on May uh um yeah May 20th a month 767 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,839 later Blitz wrote a letter um to 768 00:36:30,839 --> 00:36:32,359 planning zoning administrator and 769 00:36:32,359 --> 00:36:36,240 commission to have the plans reviewed it 770 00:36:36,240 --> 00:36:40,000 was that letter that was the response 771 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,280 two days later come came from um 772 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:48,400 pounds and he cced wall on that letter 773 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,960 um I can I have it in here somewhere 774 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,160 which um exhibits they are um but there 775 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,119 was no indication in that letter that he 776 00:36:57,119 --> 00:36:58,040 was speaking 777 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,359 on behalf of the Planning and Zoning 778 00:37:00,359 --> 00:37:03,040 administrator nor the commissioner or 779 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,280 commission um and so he responded and 780 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,680 that's when he's like oh it's indefinite 781 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:15,000 um so that happened um and then 782 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:20,640 uh so so then June 3 um Blitz wrote 783 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,359 another letter two pounds asking who 784 00:37:23,359 --> 00:37:25,200 that letter was on behalf of and no 785 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,720 response was received three weeks after 786 00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:30,200 that the appeal application 787 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,280 occurred okay so two events what was 788 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,680 that first date again of which the 789 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,480 letter that requesting the review yes 790 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,030 May 20th 791 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,680 2022 so that's actually in this timeline 792 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:52,270 right here 793 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,790 too right 794 00:37:55,800 --> 00:38:00,990 okay so in in my 795 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,560 opinion that's that's 796 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,920 when if we're saying that the moratorium 797 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,240 expired with pivotal Point whatever 798 00:38:09,240 --> 00:38:12,280 else because in order in order to file 799 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,640 the appeal you have to you have to have 800 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,480 your concern brought up with the pl and 801 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:21,480 zonian administrator right so 802 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,880 um that could have occurred after the 803 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:28,680 jcbc letter in February 2020 804 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,839 right um or it could have occurred at 805 00:38:31,839 --> 00:38:35,160 that point too when they wrote back and 806 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,280 said hey what's going on with this and 807 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,319 got no 808 00:38:38,319 --> 00:38:41,280 response I think that that lack of 809 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:49,430 response could have been a response 810 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,880 too if we SP it that is a date 811 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,240 right is that the third one we've got so 812 00:38:56,240 --> 00:39:01,510 far we have the initial response on 813 00:39:01,510 --> 00:39:03,800 [Music] 814 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,480 2521 oh so there's another aspect 815 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:10,270 another point to that is 816 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,000 that you know refusing to pick up the 817 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:19,190 review of the plans in May of 818 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,480 2022 was that an error on the part of 819 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,069 the Planning and Zoning 820 00:39:25,079 --> 00:39:26,880 administrator did the planning and 821 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,710 zoning 822 00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:38,839 administrator was he obligated to was there even evidence that because the response came from the town 823 00:39:38,839 --> 00:39:42,119 attorney we have it's my opinion that we 824 00:39:42,119 --> 00:39:44,560 were given no evidence to say that that 825 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,520 came from plan and Zoning in any way 826 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,440 shape or form correct correct so we 827 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,400 cannot know if there was any discussion 828 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,200 or what not from what I have 829 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,119 seen I see no indication of that so I 830 00:39:57,119 --> 00:39:59,839 mean I would be unable to rule that the 831 00:39:59,839 --> 00:40:02,440 that I I would say that that's out of 832 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:04,440 our bounds 833 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,960 because it was not an action by the 834 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,319 administrator of the commission unless 835 00:40:09,319 --> 00:40:12,550 the inaction was an 836 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,280 action love that 837 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,760 question but if the administrator or the 838 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,109 commission was not 839 00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:24,520 involved in that 840 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:29,720 rejection right well you could have that letter was a rejection and you can 841 00:40:29,720 --> 00:40:31,640 also have that the fact that it didn't 842 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,200 come from Planning and Zoning right that 843 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,880 they rejected it in the fact that they 844 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,960 chose not to react to it and 845 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,720 coincidentally the town sent something 846 00:40:41,720 --> 00:40:45,240 too so to me that wasn't done on their 847 00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:46,880 behalf 848 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,079 because pounds represent 849 00:40:50,079 --> 00:40:52,200 represented the mayor and the Town 850 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,640 Council and that letter did not CC the 851 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,680 planning and zoning 852 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,599 anybody I agree with that so that's also 853 00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:03,079 my so so is that something we could rule 854 00:41:03,079 --> 00:41:06,400 on at refusal I I think that's outside 855 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,470 our 856 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,640 bounds but the fact that letter was 857 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,119 written to the pl and zonian 858 00:41:15,119 --> 00:41:18,079 administrator unless male fraud 859 00:41:18,079 --> 00:41:21,400 occurred he received it we just didn't 860 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,040 hear 861 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,359 anything I think you 862 00:41:25,359 --> 00:41:28,119 said uh I said that if the letter was 863 00:41:28,119 --> 00:41:29,680 sent unless mail fraud occurred or 864 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:30,839 something the Planning and Zoning 865 00:41:30,839 --> 00:41:32,680 administrator and the commission still 866 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,920 received the letter I would hope they re 867 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,599 still receive the 868 00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:40,640 letter that being said we didn't receive 869 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,000 something before too so I don't know 870 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,440 this is the may may 2022 the letter 871 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,440 asking for site plan 872 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,480 review after 873 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:59,790 the right in the yeah 874 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,800 let's go back to March of 875 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,760 2023 when the moratorium was 876 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,040 lifted and the site the review of the 877 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,359 site plans was not 878 00:42:12,359 --> 00:42:15,599 started is that an error is that 879 00:42:15,599 --> 00:42:18,960 a something we can rule on I 880 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,839 don't I mean so so what they have I have 881 00:42:21,839 --> 00:42:22,800 this 882 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,119 in um this is this is the timeline 883 00:42:26,119 --> 00:42:28,480 pulled from the 884 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:34,319 code uh which would be um that the let's 885 00:42:34,319 --> 00:42:37,160 see uh in uh November 886 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,440 22 is a zoning Amendment zoning 887 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,720 map then March of 23 is the termination 888 00:42:43,720 --> 00:42:47,920 of the moratorium so even then and and 889 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,160 uh Along on same date of uh March 23 890 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,960 there's an additional zoning amendment 891 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:53,800 that 892 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:57,559 passes I mean those those site plans are 893 00:42:57,559 --> 00:42:59,839 going to apply to old the old rules 894 00:42:59,839 --> 00:43:02,119 which is kind of the whole reason we're 895 00:43:02,119 --> 00:43:06,520 here right um I can't I can't see that 896 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:07,880 as being a decision point because those 897 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,480 are 898 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,960 so uh out of whack right those we we 899 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,079 haven't looked into the differences in 900 00:43:15,079 --> 00:43:16,680 zoning and I don't think we 901 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,760 should um but the idea that they could 902 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:21,480 pick 903 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:26,400 up uh two-year-old site plans with a new 904 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,240 certainly you can and if you decide that 905 00:43:28,240 --> 00:43:31,920 you're going to um review them against 906 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,880 whatever whatever code is in place at 907 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,760 that 908 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,319 moment you could it's a bit of a stretch 909 00:43:39,319 --> 00:43:41,599 for me but 910 00:43:41,599 --> 00:43:44,319 well you know it 911 00:43:44,319 --> 00:43:46,640 wasn't I mean there wasn't an explicit 912 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,319 request at that time to review the 913 00:43:49,319 --> 00:43:55,190 plans against the code of 914 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,680 2021 it it would be like 915 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,400 submitting a new let's let's say you 916 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,160 submitted the plans 917 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,359 fresh in March of 918 00:44:07,359 --> 00:44:10,920 2023 those same plans would get reviewed 919 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:16,040 against the code that existed at that 920 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,240 moment 921 00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:22,640 yeah I mean but but but the point 922 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:28,390 earlier I think is a good one in that 923 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,119 although the plans were there there was 924 00:44:31,119 --> 00:44:33,440 not a formal 925 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,510 application in March of 926 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,839 2023 to 927 00:44:40,839 --> 00:44:44,040 um have the plans reviewed I don't think 928 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,400 yeah I don't think they be yeah I don't 929 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,440 can't read into that I have a question 930 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,000 how can the error occur in March of 2023 931 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,400 when the appeal was filed in June of 932 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,559 2022 you can't have have an error 933 00:44:57,559 --> 00:44:59,920 occurred nine months after it says up 934 00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:03,200 until this point in but the appeal the 935 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:04,960 appeal application was 936 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,559 rejected so it wasn't so it wasn't there 937 00:45:07,559 --> 00:45:10,200 wasn't any appeal but it was but all of 938 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,160 this is a continuation of 939 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,000 that well why we're here today again the 940 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,599 moratorium was still in 941 00:45:18,599 --> 00:45:22,240 place yeah I don't think the zoning 942 00:45:22,240 --> 00:45:23,960 administrator or commission could have 943 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,119 done anything while 944 00:45:27,119 --> 00:45:32,190 the moratorium was in 945 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,440 place I think I mean I think that's only 946 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,440 it was only it when the moratorium was 947 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,470 lifted in March of 948 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:44,200 23 that there could have been any 949 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,119 progress but I mean I think the the 950 00:45:46,119 --> 00:45:47,440 applicant would I think there was not 951 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,480 any progress was that an error was that 952 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:54,390 an error of 953 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:55,960 interpretation we're we're trying to 954 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,680 rule on the action of the zoning 955 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,119 administrator and the 956 00:46:02,119 --> 00:46:09,710 commission or decisions of those 957 00:46:09,720 --> 00:46:12,480 bodies 958 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,720 okay are you gonna are you gonna clarify 959 00:46:14,720 --> 00:46:17,160 or you gonna I'm try to clarify on my 960 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,880 own I'm just I'm struggling 961 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,359 that the appeal 962 00:46:23,359 --> 00:46:28,200 application was rejected in 2022 too but 963 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:33,240 not by us it never got to us hold on so 964 00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:35,720 we're talking about the appeal to come 965 00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:37,920 to before the appeals board the like the 966 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,640 requests to come talk to us yeah yeah 967 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:45,430 okay sorry I just clarifying 968 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,400 um because that was yeah we're failing 969 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,400 to process the site plans I don't know 970 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,319 there's just once you file an appeal I 971 00:46:53,319 --> 00:46:55,720 mean review of the site plans is put on 972 00:46:55,720 --> 00:47:01,480 hold well actually I guess I don't know if it 973 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,240 has to be put on hold but I think 974 00:47:03,240 --> 00:47:06,800 normally you file an appeal and any 975 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,960 further reviews get put on hold until 976 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:17,829 appeal's 977 00:47:17,839 --> 00:47:20,240 heard again I you know I think the start 978 00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:24,200 the clock doesn't restart until March of 979 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:34,510 23 I yeah I don't think 980 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,880 yeah to me there's only one there's only 981 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:40,040 one decision Point by zoning 982 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:41,520 administrator and planning zoning and 983 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,400 that's the first one which is the the 984 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,160 jabak response letter and kind a 985 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:48,960 subsequent subsequent fils I don't think 986 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,079 that the 987 00:47:51,079 --> 00:47:53,319 like there's a whole bunch of mess with 988 00:47:53,319 --> 00:47:54,839 the the 989 00:47:54,839 --> 00:47:58,800 moratorium and all that but I think the 990 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,079 and there's a lot of could have would 991 00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:02,559 have should have in a lot of directions 992 00:48:02,559 --> 00:48:03,960 but I think the only 993 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,720 one that really just stands out to me is 994 00:48:06,720 --> 00:48:09,960 did Mr dubak make a 995 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,480 mistake an error according to the rules 996 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,160 by which we are 997 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:20,240 guided in February of 2021 or 998 00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:22,960 roundabouts roundabouts there um and I 999 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:24,559 think that's kind of why I was talking 1000 00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:25,880 about all that Domino stuff at the 1001 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,720 beginning was cuz like 1002 00:48:27,720 --> 00:48:29,599 I think what the applicant would like us 1003 00:48:29,599 --> 00:48:32,760 to do is find that that was an error 1004 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,640 which then knocks over some things which 1005 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:39,640 are outside the scope of this board what do you think was happening in March 1006 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:40,920 of 1007 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:45,710 2023 I mean it's it's more that I don't 1008 00:48:45,720 --> 00:48:48,680 think I don't think anybody I mean 1009 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,119 reading it maybe reading it I don't 1010 00:48:50,119 --> 00:48:53,400 think anybody wants that is like the 1011 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,480 these site plans were submitted lawfully 1012 00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:01,440 on a date and they were planned for that 1013 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,760 specific version of the law and the 1014 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,599 zoning code and anything other than that 1015 00:49:08,599 --> 00:49:10,559 I don't think is that's that's the 1016 00:49:10,559 --> 00:49:12,240 starting point the starting point that's 1017 00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:14,640 the only point because like if they 1018 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,240 let's say that got reopened after all 1019 00:49:17,240 --> 00:49:19,640 these zoning ordinances I don't think I 1020 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:21,000 can't imagine the applicant would be 1021 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,400 terribly happy with that probably would 1022 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:28,599 end another that's really not the point is that 1023 00:49:28,599 --> 00:49:34,960 uh you know should should have should the plans have been reviewed 1024 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,119 in March of 1025 00:49:37,119 --> 00:49:40,680 2023 and and I guess there was no formal 1026 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,280 application to me the answer is a pretty 1027 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,680 clear no not not whether they would have 1028 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:48,920 been rejected because the the zoning 1029 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:50,359 code 1030 00:49:50,359 --> 00:49:54,839 changed me that's that's not pertinent 1031 00:49:54,839 --> 00:49:56,160 they they they may well have been 1032 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,079 rejected because the zoning code had 1033 00:49:58,079 --> 00:50:00,760 changed but the fact that they the 1034 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,400 review was not started restarted at that 1035 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:10,190 point um and there was no formal 1036 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:13,119 application made you know the only the 1037 00:50:13,119 --> 00:50:15,119 only formal application to review the 1038 00:50:15,119 --> 00:50:16,480 site plans 1039 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:21,150 was 1040 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:25,799 2021 I think as you're continuing to 1041 00:50:25,799 --> 00:50:32,000 discuss and Del R this uh if

of the other 1045 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,880 things you need to consider is whether 1046 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,960 there was a timely appeal from that 1047 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,160

context which we have you know kind of 1096 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:21,799 centered around a couple things if 1097 00:58:21,799 --> 00:58:24,640 there's other other issues you'd like to 1098 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,839 um 1099 00:58:26,839 --> 00:58:29,960 you'd like to chat about before 1100 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,559 we I don't really have an agenda for 1101 00:58:32,559 --> 00:58:35,400 where we go from here um I think at some 1102 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,359 point we'll want to walk through some of 1103 00:58:38,359 --> 00:58:44,720 the specifics of where these particular can we check 1104 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:49,440 these boxes in terms of process but 1105 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,400 um yeah do you have anything you want to 1106 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,960 go totally random you were asking before 1107 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,799 about who tubak would have given those 1108 00:58:57,799 --> 00:59:00,599 plans to you were saying when you know 1109 00:59:00,599 --> 00:59:02,480 it takes time once the administrator 1110 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,400 gets the plans doesn't he do something 1111 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,039 with them he talks to people whatever 1112 00:59:06,039 --> 00:59:08,119 else so it 1113 00:59:08,119 --> 00:59:11,240 um the processing procedure after 1114 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:12,880 submission says the administrator shall 1115 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,520 review the applications for completeness 1116 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,160 and will refer the applications to the 1117 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,119 appropriate individuals for agent or 1118 00:59:18,119 --> 00:59:20,680 agencies for review comment approval 1119 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:24,119 Etc so whether he started that process I 1120 00:59:24,119 --> 00:59:25,440 don't I don't know but I'm just saying 1121 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,599 that's where I read yeah yeah and that was my read on it was that was that 1122 00:59:29,599 --> 00:59:30,920 even though it 1123 00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,359 doesn't that maybe sounds like talk to 1124 00:59:34,359 --> 00:59:37,079 State agencies or whatever it is that is 1125 00:59:37,079 --> 00:59:39,839 in the purview of his job that talking 1126 00:59:39,839 --> 00:59:43,440 to staff for the Town Council would also 1127 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,880 fall into that that was my read on that 1128 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:47,720 particular but I think we have to keep 1129 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:49,839 in mind at no point did we actually hear 1130 00:59:49,839 --> 00:59:54,319 from chubak so we have no idea if Beyond 1131 00:59:54,319 --> 00:59:56,280 things such as that letter we have have 1132 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:58,000 no idea what Communications actually 1133 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,119 occurred um whether with anybody in one 1134 01:00:01,119 --> 01:00:05,839 of the parties or otherwise we don't 1135 01:00:05,839 --> 01:00:08,839 know so I think that's that's something 1136 01:00:08,839 --> 01:00:11,440 that's really important that we only 1137 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:15,230 have part of that 1138 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:18,599 picture so let me bring up another 1139 01:00:18,599 --> 01:00:23,400 Point let's say that we 1140 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:26,079 decide that there was a Mis 1141 01:00:26,079 --> 01:00:27,880 interpretation there was an error on the 1142 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:32,280 part of the the administrator or 1143 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:35,240 commission you know decision is 1144 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:39,069 resulting from 1145 01:00:39,079 --> 01:00:43,160 misinterpretation the the appeal asks 1146 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,000 that 1147 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:49,200 we we request the the U administrator to 1148 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,200 immediately commence the processing and 1149 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:55,680 review of the site plans according to 1150 01:00:55,680 --> 01:01:01,109 the the zoning code that was in place in 1151 01:01:01,119 --> 01:01:04,319 2021 are we able to do that is that 1152 01:01:04,319 --> 01:01:06,640 within our 1153 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:10,039 powers because if it's 1154 01:01:10,039 --> 01:01:13,200 not then whether or not there was an 1155 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:16,039 error is 1156 01:01:16,039 --> 01:01:18,440 irrelevant I think we'd still have to do 1157 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,680 it um do what to make to make that 1158 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:24,039 decision even if we didn't have I think 1159 01:01:24,039 --> 01:01:25,480 it would we'd effectively be a speed 1160 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,920 bump and a different legal battle which 1161 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,680 is that we can make our decision but if 1162 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:37,589 but but if we decided there was that there was an an 1163 01:01:37,599 --> 01:01:41,640 error request the the administrator to 1164 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:43,520 immediately pick up review the site 1165 01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,079 plans I I think that in in order to do 1166 01:01:47,079 --> 01:01:48,480 that though we have to find that not 1167 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:49,920 only is there an 1168 01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:53,880 error that was an appealable offense but 1169 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,039 that the appeal was done properly and 1170 01:01:56,039 --> 01:01:57,640 everything leading up well let's assume 1171 01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:01,440 that we we decide 1172 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:04,880 okay if we don't have the 1173 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:09,680 power to request or tell or order the 1174 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,039 administrator to review the 1175 01:02:12,039 --> 01:02:15,400 plans against the the code that existed 1176 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,150 in 1177 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:22,240 2021 then there's no point there is a 1178 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,640 bit of that um we we would have to deny 1179 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,520 the the the request Den I the appeal 1180 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,720 because if we're not able if we don't 1181 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:31,799 have the 1182 01:02:31,799 --> 01:02:37,200 power to um ask the administrator order 1183 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:40,000 the administrator whatever to go back 1184 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:41,920 and use the 2021 1185 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:45,079 code then automatically we'd have to 1186 01:02:45,079 --> 01:02:46,720 deny the appeal I don't know if we'd 1187 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:49,760 have to deny it I think I think we could 1188 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,279 make a decision without any enforcement 1189 01:02:52,279 --> 01:02:54,400 we ultimately don't have any enforcement 1190 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:59,599 power we are are a second review of the 1191 01:02:59,599 --> 01:03:02,039 powers that exist for planning and 1192 01:03:02,039 --> 01:03:04,640 zoning and the zoning administrator I 1193 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:06,680 mean I think a lot some of the requests 1194 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,480 were for for us to do some of the work 1195 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,079 that other other folks within the town 1196 01:03:12,079 --> 01:03:15,760 do was a little too far for me but I 1197 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:19,079 think we'd be well within our our powers 1198 01:03:19,079 --> 01:03:22,799 if if all of the check if we go down the 1199 01:03:22,799 --> 01:03:27,880 list and we find that all the all the requirements been satisfied and that 1200 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:31,279 an error was made that the role of this 1201 01:03:31,279 --> 01:03:33,359 the board would stop as soon as we made 1202 01:03:33,359 --> 01:03:35,920 the decision that an error like that 1203 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:38,720 this was an error on behalf of planning 1204 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:40,880 and zoning and the zoning administrator 1205 01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,359 I I don't think we want to go any 1206 01:03:43,359 --> 01:03:47,359 further than that um but but again the 1207 01:03:47,359 --> 01:03:53,390 requests it's a two it's a two-part 1208 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,880 request request that the administrator 1209 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:59,359 pick up review of the plans and that the 1210 01:03:59,359 --> 01:04:01,799 plans would be reviewed against the 1211 01:04:01,799 --> 01:04:04,200 ordinances from 1212 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:07,119 2021 yeah I mean if if you can only 1213 01:04:07,119 --> 01:04:10,520 fulfill one but not the other I don't I 1214 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:12,920 mean I could see a scenario where we'd 1215 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,079 say yes to both of those that is how it 1216 01:04:15,079 --> 01:04:18,279 should have been we we'd be effectively 1217 01:04:18,279 --> 01:04:20,000 winding back the decision clock and 1218 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:22,400 making that decision so we say yes and 1219 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:25,279 the zoning administrator says no I don't 1220 01:04:25,279 --> 01:04:26,960 think we have from from the point at 1221 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,640 which we we say that this is how the 1222 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,079 decision should have been made I think 1223 01:04:32,079 --> 01:04:35,079 we kind of can wipe our hands of it not 1224 01:04:35,079 --> 01:04:37,279 we don't have enforcement Authority sure 1225 01:04:37,279 --> 01:04:40,559 I agree do we if if we decided there was 1226 01:04:40,559 --> 01:04:42,000 an 1227 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,580 error do we have the authority 1228 01:04:44,580 --> 01:04:46,160 [Music] 1229 01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:50,390 to I what's what's the 1230 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,160 wording there there's a difference 1231 01:04:52,160 --> 01:05:00,269 between a request and an order right 1232 01:05:00,279 --> 01:05:03,440 the the application asks that we 1233 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:07,240 order that the zoning ordinances in in 1234 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:11,599 effect as of January 21 be 1235 01:05:11,599 --> 01:05:14,119 applied the request is asking for an 1236 01:05:14,119 --> 01:05:16,799 order from 1237 01:05:16,799 --> 01:05:19,760 us say you don't have to Grant the 1238 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:22,039 specific relief that the applicant to 1239 01:05:22,039 --> 01:05:24,799 the appellant has out you have the 1240 01:05:24,799 --> 01:05:28,799 discretion to other types of relief okay 1241 01:05:28,799 --> 01:05:31,559 I view it like a variance if somebody's 1242 01:05:31,559 --> 01:05:33,839 asking for a 20 foot deck and we give 1243 01:05:33,839 --> 01:05:36,039 them a six-foot deck that's what we 1244 01:05:36,039 --> 01:05:39,400 write that we are going to allow and 1245 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,640 then it goes to the other powers that b 1246 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:45,200 and it after that it's out of our hands 1247 01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:48,279 and so just because that request came in 1248 01:05:48,279 --> 01:05:49,960 doesn't mean we follow through with it 1249 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:53,440 as written is that fair I think we we'd 1250 01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:56,720 just be saying that an error happened 1251 01:05:56,720 --> 01:06:00,760 and and the remedy that we'd recommend 1252 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,559 would be these site plans be considered 1253 01:06:04,559 --> 01:06:06,200 as of the date that they were filed 1254 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:09,200 against the current the town code and 1255 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,720 the zoning map and all the other things 1256 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:13,960 that apply at that time I'm not 1257 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:16,599 saying that's what we should do because 1258 01:06:16,599 --> 01:06:19,880 that there's lots going on um but I 1259 01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:22,000 think if if we went down that road and 1260 01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:23,400 found an 1261 01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,960 error just us determining the would be 1262 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:27,480 the where we 1263 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,720 stop assuming that you find that there 1264 01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:33,440 was a timely appeal yes all that all of 1265 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,319 the all of the stipulations have been 1266 01:06:35,319 --> 01:06:38,079 met and we find 1267 01:06:38,079 --> 01:06:41,430 that 1268 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:45,319 yes the appeal needs to be filed within 1269 01:06:45,319 --> 01:06:48,200 30 days got a whole list of them here I 1270 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:49,920 don't I don't know if we want to jump 1271 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:53,160 into that thing here well there are two 1272 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:56,200 statements there are two statements 1273 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:59,599 though that say that so it was in the CR 1274 01:06:59,599 --> 01:07:00,960 wasn't it just like in the critical area 1275 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,160 or something but that was stated it does 1276 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:07,359 say 30 days but it also States five 1277 01:07:07,359 --> 01:07:09,480 days sorry what are we talking I 1278 01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:13,950 understand that five days only applies 1279 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:16,640 to plan 1280 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:19,319 reviews 1281 01:07:19,319 --> 01:07:26,309 or yeah I I I picked up on that as well 1282 01:07:26,319 --> 01:07:29,200 there there's a five day I I I have the 1283 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:33,200 two 30day limit one is 29023 f right

within 30 days of the decision and those 1290 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,400 are probably two different subsections 1291 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:53,279 my understanding is the five day 1292 01:07:53,279 --> 01:07:57,630 limit regards a this 1293 01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:01,480 ision pertaining to some aspect of the 1294 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,910 site 1295 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:06,480 plan because

decision 1307 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:36,600 made on a site 1308 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:41,910 plan well that's what we have to 1309 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,279 decide was was that in this what we were 1310 01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:47,719 talking about before February 5th 2021 1311 01:08:47,719 --> 01:08:49,799 letter was that my reading of that is 1312 01:08:49,799 --> 01:08:51,440 that for 1313 01:08:51,440 --> 01:08:53,839 example the 1314 01:08:53,839 --> 01:08:58,440 administrator looks at a site plan and 1315 01:08:58,440 --> 01:09:03,480 says this Dimension is not acceptable 1316 01:09:03,480 --> 01:09:07,359 before the the the plan is 1317 01:09:07,359 --> 01:09:11,349 rejected that's the five-day 1318 01:09:11,359 --> 01:09:14,239 limit but that has that doesn't apply in 1319 01:09:14,239 --> 01:09:18,229 this 1320 01:09:18,239 --> 01:09:21,640 case I think that's an 1321 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:24,359 interpretation well yes but I mean it 1322 01:09:24,359 --> 01:09:26,719 could here's the second one the second 1323 01:09:26,719 --> 01:09:30,080 one is under subsection J of let me find 1324 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:31,520 the total title so I can actually

01:09:44,040 board of appeals is the date that 1331 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:45,679 applies because it's more specific than 1332 01:09:45,679 --> 01:09:48,279 the first and this is under Section J 1333 01:09:48,279 --> 01:09:50,279 rules and procedures for f filing 1334 01:09:50,279 --> 01:09:52,520 interpretation and variance appeals and 1335 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:53,800 special 1336 01:09:53,800

01:10:21,320 narrow as Paul 1346 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,400 suggested any person agreed by any 1347 01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:27,800 decision made under this article and 1348 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:35,120 that's the entire site plan uh article uh 1349 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:38,360 six May within five days of such 1350 01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,640 decision appeal to and have a 1351

one which would be the 1357 01:11:01,440 --> 01:11:03,520 subsection this one the first the one 1358 01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:06,199 Fred just read is in zoning General 1359 01:11:06,199 --> 01:11:09,080 requirements the second one is specific 1360 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:10,640 to 1361 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:12,640 appeals I guess this one has the total 1362 01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:15,120 board of appeals in it so um 1363 01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:16,440 determination made by the board of 1364 01:11:16,440 --> 01:11:19,000 appeals determin 1365 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,040 right you said you wanted to go through 1366 01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:22,520 the rules didn't 1367 01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:25,920 you yep um I mean 1368 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:28,280 we're outside of both of those either 1369 01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:29,560 way right like 1370 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:31,520 this if we're going back to the 1371 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:34,880 specifics of this case would be 1372 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:38,040 like this these these like if I'm 1373 01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:41,320 summarizing in human terms these this 1374 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,840 request was kind of left in limbo was 1375 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:47,000 neither neither uh I mean so so the 1376 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,920 letter gets sent back whatever you can 1377 01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:52,639 we can whatever um it's neither appealed 1378 01:11:52,639 --> 01:11:54,440 nor denied in an official capacity it's 1379 01:11:54,440 --> 01:11:57,000 in this gray holding 1380 01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:00,159 Zone I don't feel like we can apply 1381 01:12:00,159 --> 01:12:03,960 either we can apply any limit date to 1382 01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:07,760 that because it like it's kind of unfair 1383 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:08,880 right like we're just going to hold your 1384 01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:10,880 applications for five days and neither 1385 01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:12,120 appeal nor deny them but then we're 1386 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,159 going to hold you to the date at which 1387 01:12:15,159 --> 01:12:16,920 we sent a letter so you know something 1388 01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:19,040 it's 1389 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:22,880 like yeah agree with that 1390 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:25,440 sign I might I might take an argument 1391 01:12:25,440 --> 01:12:27,120 something more along the lines of in 1392 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:28,760 official 1393 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:31,440 capacity the moratorium 1394 01:12:31,440 --> 01:12:34,719 passing was ineffect to denial I could 1395 01:12:34,719 --> 01:12:36,480 I'm not saying I'm making that argument 1396 01:12:36,480 --> 01:12:38,600 but I could I would hear like an 1397 01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:40,520 argument along those those lines where 1398 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:42,040 here's something official that happened 1399 01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,120 with a stamp on 1400 01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:47,840 it not it's not by the Planning 1401 01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:53,950 Commission or 1402 01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:55,840 by yeah 1403 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:59,400 so I feel like yeah I feel like if 1404 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:01,440 there's any date later than that it 1405 01:13:01,440 --> 01:13:04,199 would be you know if there was a 60-day 1406 01:13:04,199 --> 01:13:06,440 application period or whatever right a 1407 01:13:06,440 --> 01:13:08,679 denial and lack of response whatever 1408 01:13:08,679 --> 01:13:10,400 else and if that 60 days passes and 1409 01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:12,560 nothing happens then that would be 1410 01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:15,639 another potential but nothing no appeal 1411 01:13:15,639 --> 01:13:22,629 no anything came of that so 1412 01:13:22,639 --> 01:13:25,360 um I mean we can do the opposite in 1413 01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:28,199 backtrack is to make this if it was 1414 01:13:28,199 --> 01:13:30,320 timely what when would things have had 1415 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:32,080 to have happened but we have already 1416 01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:38,430 eliminated that those options yeah I 1417 01:13:38,440 --> 01:13:41,199 mean who who do we apply the rules to 1418 01:13:41,199 --> 01:13:45,159 right like it there there are two cases 1419 01:13:45,159 --> 01:13:47,440 where in order for the date to start 1420 01:13:47,440 --> 01:13:49,800 we'd have yeah yeah it's not really fair 1421 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:51,920 but in order for the appeal date to 1422 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:59,750 actually hold with either one of those 1423 01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,159 um it doesn't yeah I don't know that it 1424 01:14:02,159 --> 01:14:03,600 even holds water with some of the later 1425 01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:06,560 things I'm sorry that I was just looking 1426 01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:09,440 to see if it would even hold water later 1427 01:14:09,440 --> 01:14:11,400 on with some of the other events that we 1428 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:16,520 spoke about but we didn't believe that was anything having to do with 1429 01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:21,669 plenty and Zoning so that would be I 1430 01:14:21,679 --> 01:14:25,480 know was the check being returned 1431 01:14:25,480 --> 01:14:29,000 was that an act of Planning and Zoning 1432 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:31,800 or right like there the so the they 1433 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,159 submitted an application money was 1434 01:14:34,159 --> 01:14:36,040 refunded would that be considered an 1435 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,840 application of or not denial or whatever 1436 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,400 denial like decision decision I would 1437 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:43,480 say yes I mean it came from the Town 1438 01:14:43,480 --> 01:14:46,320 Administrator but it came from the Town 1439 01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:50,159 Administrator uh after the pl and Zoning 1440 01:14:50,159 --> 01:14:55,199 administrators said no so 1441 01:14:55,199 --> 01:14:57,280 to me that that is part of that but to 1442 01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:01,400 me that's also part of his his 1443 01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:03,360 letter even though it's technically a 1444 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:04,760 different 1445 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:08,679 date but that was not that was not a 1446 01:15:08,679 --> 01:15:14,870 rejection on the merits of the other the 1447 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:17,400 S I think it's still lumped in with that 1448 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:34,950 February 5th 1449 01:15:34,960 --> 01:16:00,550 H all right 1450 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,560 I guess I guess in in terms of 1451 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,800 determining if an error 1452 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:07,080 happened was there an 1453 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,679 obligation upon receipt of these to 1454 01:16:09,679 --> 01:16:15,360 perform a series of right Mr dubak gets 1455 01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:19,120 filings does he then is part of like 1456 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:21,159 does he need to complete a series of 1457 01:16:21,159 --> 01:16:25,080 steps in order to have 1458 01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:30,669 I don't know never mind just talking out 1459 01:16:30,679 --> 01:16:33,400 loud I mean we can debate different 1460 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:36,000 things different steps like that but 1461 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,520 does It ultimately matter if we if we 1462 01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:40,920 believe that a decision point was made 1463 01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,679 at that point or anywhere time in that 1464 01:16:43,679 --> 01:16:47,480 time frame right that he could have done 1465 01:16:47,480 --> 01:16:50,159 that does it matter because what 1466 01:16:50,159 --> 01:16:53,320 happened after that in a timely manner 1467 01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:56,120 what I don't I don't no I don't think I 1468 01:16:56,120 --> 01:16:58,679 don't see the utility in looking at that 1469 01:16:58,679 --> 01:17:00,960 if since we need a 1470 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,199 set time and that's the only one we can 1471 01:17:03,199 --> 01:17:43,470 find 1472 01:17:43,480 --> 01:17:45,120 so do we want to just run 1473 01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:48,440 down the like I have I have a list of 1474 01:17:48,440 --> 01:17:50,880 kind of General process things and 1475 01:17:50,880 --> 01:17:52,639 specific ones we already talked a little 1476 01:17:52,639 --> 01:17:55,400 bit about the specific ones but like 1477 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,080 maybe maybe this will I don't know if 1478 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:58,920 this will help anything but start start 1479 01:17:58,920 --> 01:18:02,270 on the general ones which 1480 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:04,199 is 1481 01:18:04,199 --> 01:18:09,110 was the first one is was this offense 1482 01:18:09,120 --> 01:18:10,840 appealable that's just these are just 1483 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,000 notes I have from some of our legal 1484 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:16,480 discussions about uh process issues what 1485 01:18:16,480 --> 01:18:19,990 would make it not 1486 01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:21,880 appealable if we found that there was 1487 01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,120 not an actual error if we found back 1488 01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:27,920 followed all well that's that's not 1489 01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:29,760 that's a different question than whether 1490 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:35,030 it's appealable it's always 1491 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:50,430 appealable 1492 01:18:50,440 --> 01:18:53,600 if it would be made appealable by being 1493 01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,760 a decision of planning zoning or zoning 1494 01:18:56,760 --> 01:19:00,360 administrator and what else right did it 1495 01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:02,840 involve in interpretation 1496 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:10,709 290 1497 01:19:10,719 --> 01:19:14,159 ordinance that there was an error and an 1498 01:19:14,159 --> 01:19:16,239 order requirement decision or 1499 01:19:16,239 --> 01:19:18,960 determination made by the administrator 1500 01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:21,360 in the enforcement of the zarting 1501 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:23,360 chapter or by the planning and starting 1502 01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,560 commission so 1503 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:29,800 these are all I think preconditions to 1504 01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:33,480 uh something being subject to appeal it 1505 01:19:33,480 --> 01:19:35,360 has to 1506 01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:39,360 be a an action or 1507 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:41,480 decision um on the part of the 1508 01:19:41,480 --> 01:19:45,430 administrator or 1509 01:19:45,440 --> 01:19:48,120 commission involving involing 1510 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,120 interpretation right right of any 1511 01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:52,360 provision of the of 1512 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:55,280 ordinance or where's alleged that there 1513 01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:58,159 was an error and an order requirement 1514 01:19:58,159 --> 01:20:00,880 decision or determination made by the 1515 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:03,320 administrator in the enforcement of this 1516 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:10,870 chapter whereby the planning 1517 01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,800 commiss keep keep on discussing the the 1518 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:15,760 next one I have noted down is is was it 1519 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,239 timely and I think that's one where 1520 01:20:18,239 --> 01:20:20,840 we're going to have a hard time I think 1521 01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:22,639 that's kind of what we were just talking 1522 01:20:22,639 --> 01:20:27,440 about uh 35 days 30 1523 01:20:27,440 --> 01:20:30,360 days like Gray 1524 01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:32,840 Zone I don't think it's gray I don't 1525 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,080 think it's gray gray 1526 01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:37,679 okay I 1527 01:20:37,679 --> 01:20:42,159 think I think it can only be gray 1528 01:20:42,159 --> 01:20:45,280 if we don't have a specific time that 1529 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:46,560 we're associating with if we think there 1530 01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:48,760 is a time and it's a black and white 1531 01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:51,880 issue that when it was filed what 1532 01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:54,120 happened 30 days prior or 5 days prior 1533 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:57,080 whichever when you look at was that was 1534 01:20:57,080 --> 01:21:00,239 that the the point we're talking about 1535 01:21:00,239 --> 01:21:02,639 that so it's it's a black and white 1536 01:21:02,639 --> 01:21:05,040 thing once we determine a time in which 1537 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:07,280 we think this error 1538 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:11,159 occurred it cded that February 5th of 1539 01:21:11,159 --> 01:21:16,950 2021 was the decision 1540 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:21,080 point then the then the argument would 1541 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:23,800 be that the appeal had to be filed not 1542 01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,520 later than March March 5th of 1543 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:29,800 2021 that what you're 1544 01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:34,270 saying clearly it 1545 01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:37,880 wasn't I think but I you know rejecting 1546 01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:40,480 an appeal on that basis 1547 01:21:40,480 --> 01:21:46,270 I makes me very very 1548 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:50,840 uncomfortable yeah I don't believe that gives the appen a fair hearing this 1549 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:53,000 one's this one's gray to me because of 1550 01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:55,600 the the the whole in pen that the 1551 01:21:55,600 --> 01:21:59,280 applications were put in like the the 1552 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:00,719 this holding pen where it was neither 1553 01:22:00,719 --> 01:22:03,800 approved nor denied up and up until some 1554 01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:05,320 different event if if you want to argue 1555 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:08,639 that like I don't I wouldn't feel 1556 01:22:08,639 --> 01:22:12,480 good making a a determination based on 1557 01:22:12,480 --> 01:22:14,400 Tim February 1558 01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:16,560 5th 1559 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,320 um 1560 01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:22,000 email didn't make it entirely clear I 1561 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:23,360 mean it didn't come on right out and say 1562 01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:27,910 we're not going to review the plan 1563 01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:31,120 was was vague right well it's a burden 1564 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,560 there's a moratorium going to come up 1565 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:36,480 but the but the message did not say 1566 01:22:36,480 --> 01:22:40,750 we're not going to review the 1567 01:22:40,760 --> 01:22:44,239 plans other words I mean it wasn't a 1568 01:22:44,239 --> 01:22:47,800 hard hard uh point at which you could 1569 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:49,239 start a 1570 01:22:49,239 --> 01:22:55,189 clock to count for 30 days 1571 01:22:55,199 --> 01:22:57,040 that's how I feel 1572 01:22:57,040 --> 01:22:59,800 like the timeliness question is maybe a 1573 01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:01,239 requirement of what we have to do here 1574 01:23:01,239 --> 01:23:04,280 in order to to lay down a decision but I 1575 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:06,920 don't I I don't think that that question 1576 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:08,760 about whether the PE was timely I don't 1577 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,040 think that's an important question I 1578 01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:12,880 think it's a really important question I 1579 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,880 think that's exactly why we're here like 1580 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:16,920 we'll have to address it because it's 1581 01:23:16,920 --> 01:23:19,950 written in the town 1582 01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:23,520 code yeah that's board can only 1583 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:26,679 entertain appeals that are timely 1584 01:23:26,679 --> 01:23:29,880 filed I mean we could want to allow 1585 01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:35,520 things but that's not in our purview to do that so the to me the only way 1586 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:37,719 that this is timely right so it was 1587 01:23:37,719 --> 01:23:41,960 filed on June 24th 2022 was when the 1588 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:45,800 appeal was filed so going back 30 1589 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:49,840 days it's what May 25th 1590 01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:53,880 2022 because it has 30 days say the 24th 1591 01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:59,000 um so that is 2 days 1592 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:03,120 after pound's letter saying that the 1593 01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:05,199 moratorium was still in 1594 01:24:05,199 --> 01:24:08,639 effect and four days after Blitz wrote 1595 01:24:08,639 --> 01:24:09,880 asking for the 1596 01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:12,950 review 1597 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:16,800 so so there was the request for it there 1598 01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:18,560 was the denial by pounds which we are 1599 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:19,880 saying is 1600 01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:24,920 not by Planning and Zoning right 1601 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:29,280 and then 32 days pass and an appeal is 1602 01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:31,920 made okay we're talking about couple of 1603 01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:34,480 different time periods when did the 1604 01:24:34,480 --> 01:24:40,080 clock start on this 30 days how about we take this one and and table 1605 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:41,199 it I don't think we're going to get to 1606 01:24:41,199 --> 01:24:42,520 an answer tonight but why don't we put 1607 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:44,679 this on the list of things to think 1608 01:24:44,679 --> 01:24:46,320 about before we get back together again 1609 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:48,119 do you understand what I'm saying if 1610 01:24:48,119 --> 01:24:51,840 you're if if if we if a person has 30 1611 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,679 days to appeal it and the appeal happen 1612 01:24:54,679 --> 01:24:57,520 on this date what happened 30 days prior 1613 01:24:57,520 --> 01:24:59,760 and in the midst of 1614 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:03,280 that so I I think that's we can yeah I 1615 01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:04,560 think I think that's what we have to 1616 01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,960 look at if if it is timely that's the 1617 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:09,880 only time period we have it was 1618 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,080 that let's get our thoughts together on 1619 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:16,679 this like I think I've heard what you said Amy 1620 01:25:16,679 --> 01:25:20,280 and we can we can consider how we how we 1621 01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:21,320 think so I don't think we're going to 1622 01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:23,560 wrap this one up in the next you know 1623 01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:25,920 number of minutes it's this is just a 1624 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:27,679 it's a thing to put a pin in on and lay 1625 01:25:27,679 --> 01:25:29,400 out what you think and we'll come back 1626 01:25:29,400 --> 01:25:30,600 together next time and this is one of 1627 01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:33,080 the explicit things we can uh we can 1628 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:34,199 talk 1629 01:25:34,199 --> 01:25:37,520 about so you're suggesting 1630 01:25:37,520 --> 01:25:41,560 that the clock started in May of 1631 01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:45,040 20122 I'm not suggesting anything I am 1632 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:47,920 saying that if the 1633 01:25:47,920 --> 01:25:52,080 timeliness is the factor requirement of 1634 01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,320 an appeal you have have an appeal 1635 01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:57,600 application that has to be filed within 1636 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,520 30 days of the error or the 1637 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,119 interpretation right so you have you 1638 01:26:03,119 --> 01:26:05,520 have a calendar date right there that 1639 01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:09,000 you that limits that time 1640 01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:11,440 period well another thing too is it 1641 01:26:11,440 --> 01:26:13,920 wasn't actually found because it was 1642 01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:15,639 never 1643 01:26:15,639 --> 01:26:18,239 accepted you mean I think the DAT that 1644 01:26:18,239 --> 01:26:21,360 one you mean you mean the the appeal for 1645 01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:26,510 to us the paperwork for us yeah yeah 1646 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:32,109 when it was received by by the town 1647 01:26:32,119 --> 01:26:40,470 yeah this one's a hard one for 1648 01:26:40,480 --> 01:26:45,000 me there was an attempt to have an 1649 01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,400 appeal there was an attempt to submit an 1650 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:48,960 application for an 1651 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,960 appeal and it was rejected it wasn't 1652 01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:55,760 accepted rejected well huh we never got 1653 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:58,960 it you never got it but I think that 1654 01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:01,679 there was an appeal 1655 01:27:01,679 --> 01:27:04,239 filed with in a proper form with the 1656 01:27:04,239 --> 01:27:07,159 filing fee everything that needed to be 1657 01:27:07,159 --> 01:27:10,280 done to perfect an appeal was done 1658 01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:12,159 whether from an appealable decision 1659 01:27:12,159 --> 01:27:14,239 whether it's timely those are different 1660 01:27:14,239 --> 01:27:17,840 issues uh but I do think that there was 1661 01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:19,480 a 1662 01:27:19,480 --> 01:27:23,480 uh an appeal filed now it never came to 1663 01:27:23,480 --> 01:27:25,960 the board for scheduling a hearing you 1664 01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:29,440 guys never knew about it until after 1665 01:27:29,440 --> 01:27:31,480 there was a Judicial 1666 01:27:31,480 --> 01:27:34,000 determination uh by the Circuit Court 1667 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,880 saying uh board of appeals you have to 1668 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,840 hear this case t uh in a timely manner 1669 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:43,199 now I don't know why uh this board did 1670 01:27:43,199 --> 01:27:45,560 not know about it why it wasn't 1671 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,360 presented to you but that's not you know 1672 01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:55,550 what we're here for yeah 1673 01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:57,440 let's let's come back to let's get our 1674 01:27:57,440 --> 01:27:59,800 thoughts on that one and come back 1675 01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:02,480 um the next one I think the next couple 1676 01:28:02,480 --> 01:28:04,760 I think Fred already hit on with under 1677 01:28:04,760 --> 01:28:07,560 the the appeal is the was the offense 1678 01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:09,080 appealable question which was the first 1679 01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:12,600 one we talked about uh this is uh was it 1680 01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:14,760 a decision of the zoning administrator 1681 01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:17,840 or Planning and Zoning commission so 1682 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,960 whatever it is we're considering 1683 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,199 here was it just say we already talked 1684 01:28:22,199 --> 01:28:25,040 about keep on um 1685 01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:26,920 does it involve interpretation of 290 1686 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:28,760 zoning does it involve enforcement of 1687 01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:34,030 290 1688 01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:36,520 zoning the answer to those 1689 01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:43,350 is yes but regardless of how of which 1690 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:50,950 yeah 1691 01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:53,080 um G is going to pitch this out here I 1692 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:55,040 feel like we maybe run into a little bit 1693 01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:58,080 of a a little bit of a wall um does 1694 01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:00,920 anyone have objections with wrapping 1695 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,600 this up 30 minutes early or would you 1696 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:05,119 like to continue working through this 1697 01:29:05,119 --> 01:29:07,800 together I can I can go either way it's 1698 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:10,320 funny 1699 01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:13,960 caffeine I guess my question 1700 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:15,920 is if 1701 01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:20,830 we stop it now and pick up 1702 01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:23,360 later what progress will we will we make 1703 01:29:23,360 --> 01:29:25,920 at the second 1704 01:29:25,920 --> 01:29:29,000 meeting um ultimately I don't think 1705 01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:30,800 regardless of how fast we go in the next 1706 01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:33,760 30 minutes we're going to come to a a 1707 01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:34,840 clean 1708 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,639 conclusion um I think there's at least 1709 01:29:37,639 --> 01:29:40,119 for me there's some some things I'd like 1710 01:29:40,119 --> 01:29:41,320 to lay out specifically on the 1711 01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:42,560 timeliness 1712 01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:45,119 question 1713 01:29:45,119 --> 01:29:48,320 um I guess I don't see I feel like it's 1714 01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:50,320 stalled a little bit here and that we 1715 01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:52,000 would all benefit by getting our 1716 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,159 thoughts together as to how to continue 1717 01:29:54,159 --> 01:29:55,840 to narrow our 1718 01:29:55,840 --> 01:30:00,239 discussion um but that said I'm this is 1719 01:30:00,239 --> 01:30:02,600 a little bit of a strange scenario 1720 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:04,760 because it is public and you feel like 1721 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:06,679 you don't want to ramble you want to get 1722 01:30:06,679 --> 01:30:12,080 your your ducks in a row before you talk 1723 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,280 um but sometimes you just have to talk 1724 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:17,000 it out right so I 1725 01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:18,760 yeah how do you feel what do you want to 1726 01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:21,840 do Amy personal personal preference um I 1727 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:25,000 mean like I think that we have to meet 1728 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:28,119 next time anyways um I think and I think 1729 01:30:28,119 --> 01:30:31,639 this would give us time then to evaluate 1730 01:30:31,639 --> 01:30:35,360 you know the June 2020 to appeal the 1731 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:38,040 timing whatever I think that we could 1732 01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:40,560 have more clarity in our conversation if 1733 01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:45,280 we did that let's uh oh sorry Paul um 1734 01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:46,800 what do you what do you feel like Paul 1735 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:48,639 if you're if you have a preference and 1736 01:30:48,639 --> 01:30:51,080 how you'd like to proceed right now what 1737 01:30:51,080 --> 01:31:00,750 would you like to do 1738 01:31:00,760 --> 01:31:01,719 I don't 1739 01:31:01,719 --> 01:31:08,600 know I hate to give up this I mean we we I don't know if we're making progress 1740 01:31:08,600 --> 01:31:11,679 yeah I hear but at the same time I hate 1741 01:31:11,679 --> 01:31:15,199 to give up the time how about this I 1742 01:31:15,199 --> 01:31:20,159 think I feel like yes it how about we we 1743 01:31:20,159 --> 01:31:23,920 look at your timelines and is there 1744 01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:25,480 let's just lay out the times when we' 1745 01:31:25,480 --> 01:31:28,040 like other board members to consider 1746 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:29,679 things this may 1747 01:31:29,679 --> 01:31:34,280 be one time frame is can we can we 1748 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:36,080 narrow this 1749 01:31:36,080 --> 01:31:39,320 to um an action or series of actions it 1750 01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:40,719 sounds like we've maybe kind of 1751 01:31:40,719 --> 01:31:44,040 informally done that but explicitly are 1752 01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:46,840 there are there other are do you still 1753 01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:48,400 think we should 1754 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:50,400 consider the 1755 01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:52,880 reopening after the moratorium expired 1756 01:31:52,880 --> 01:31:54,920 as an action to continue talking about 1757 01:31:54,920 --> 01:31:58,560 or have we have we reached 1758 01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:03,239 some some guess I'm reconsidering 1759 01:32:03,239 --> 01:32:06,080 that we can okay let me let me go back 1760 01:32:06,080 --> 01:32:13,679 to the 30 days prior to the filing of a of 1761 01:32:13,679 --> 01:32:17,470 the appeal on June 1762 01:32:17,480 --> 01:32:20,719 24th what event 1763 01:32:20,719 --> 01:32:23,960 happened within those 30 days and the 1764 01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:26,280 only one I 1765 01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:33,870 see is a letter from Todd pounds on May 1766 01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:37,400 25th so would we say that that May 25th 1767 01:32:37,400 --> 01:32:41,360 2022 letter is when the clock started on 1768 01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:45,070 the 30 1769 01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:48,159 days I think I think 1770 01:32:48,159 --> 01:32:50,560 that the assumption would be that that 1771 01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:53,920 would be the clock as far as when the 1772 01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:56,400 appeal was made so we need to determine 1773 01:32:56,400 --> 01:33:02,910 if that is a date that would allow that 1774 01:33:02,920 --> 01:33:05,760 appeal I'm not sure what you 1775 01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:08,639 mean well we said before that we 1776 01:33:08,639 --> 01:33:10,920 believed well I thought it was kind of 1777 01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:12,560 all of us it 1778 01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:15,360 was if we believe that letter was on 1779 01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:17,960 behalf of Planning and Zoning 1780 01:33:17,960 --> 01:33:21,080 administrator and commission then that 1781 01:33:21,080 --> 01:33:24,719 would be a moment in time 1782 01:33:24,719 --> 01:33:27,159 that you could then appeal to because it 1783 01:33:27,159 --> 01:33:29,480 was a decision however our prior 1784 01:33:29,480 --> 01:33:31,920 conversation we all were kind of 1785 01:33:31,920 --> 01:33:33,320 speaking to the point that we did not 1786 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:35,040 think that that was on behalf of the 1787 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:38,840 Planning and Zoning okay group so I 1788 01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:40,960 think that 1789 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:45,400 that's that could be what was the basis 1790 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:47,239 for the appeal 1791 01:33:47,239 --> 01:33:49,639 application but I think and if we had 1792 01:33:49,639 --> 01:33:51,320 more you know a couple more days 1793 01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:53,440 whatever else we could then really look 1794 01:33:53,440 --> 01:33:54,800 into and see if that's what we thought 1795 01:33:54,800 --> 01:33:56,480 it was are we missing something else 1796 01:33:56,480 --> 01:33:59,520 that happened in the days 1797 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:02,080 after I think it was the 25th of May I 1798 01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:03,520 misspoke 1799 01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:08,350 before so if we decided 1800 01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:16,320 that exhibit 33 if if we decided that letter on on May 25th was not on 1801 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:17,280 the 1802 01:34:17,280 --> 01:34:22,030 behalf of Planning and 1803 01:34:22,040 --> 01:34:25,760 Zoning then the clock didn't start and 1804 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,270 suddenly an appeal 1805 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:32,360 appears there's no clock running 1806 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:35,159 suddenly appeal 1807 01:34:35,159 --> 01:34:37,239 appears 1808 01:34:37,239 --> 01:34:42,360 what where's where's the where's the 1809 01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:46,199 30-day um rule 1810 01:34:46,199 --> 01:34:48,520 applying right and that's why one reason 1811 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:52,800 why I think having it if we wait until 1812 01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:55,000 the next session then we can wrap our 1813 01:34:55,000 --> 01:34:56,920 heads around that and really dive into 1814 01:34:56,920 --> 01:34:58,280 it to see was there something else that 1815 01:34:58,280 --> 01:34:59,280 we're 1816 01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:01,960 missing I don't know if anything off the 1817 01:35:01,960 --> 01:35:11,590 top of my 1818 01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:13,920 head so the 1819 01:35:13,920 --> 01:35:16,360 three three dates we have noted down 1820 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:19,320 here as oh sorry are 1821 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:21,239 you what you going 1822 01:35:21,239 --> 01:35:25,600 to go ahead I was just going to just for our 1823 01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:29,880 own what we do once we're um Thinking by 1824 01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:33,239 ourselves is the infle the inflection 1825 01:35:33,239 --> 01:35:36,840 points are the initial jabak letter in 1826 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:38,000 February of 1827 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:42,119 21 Paul has made uh some some had had 1828 01:35:42,119 --> 01:35:45,000 some thoughts about 1829 01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:48,080 522 which what is is that 1830 01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:50,480 the maybe I wrote that date down wrong 1831 01:35:50,480 --> 01:35:52,600 was that the date that the moratorium 1832 01:35:52,600 --> 01:35:57,760 expired no what sorry I was wrong may 2222 is what we're talking about 1833 01:35:57,760 --> 01:36:00,360 right now is pound this is the pounds 1834 01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:07,430 letter May 25th May 1835 01:36:07,440 --> 01:36:09,920 25th maybe 1836 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:15,320 one at the extended moratorium 1837 01:36:15,320 --> 01:36:16,960 expiring 1838 01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,639 on what date is that uh termination of 1839 01:36:19,639 --> 01:36:30,830 it on in March of 23 1840 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:36,189 are there other dates or other 1841 01:36:36,199 --> 01:36:39,360 things you can think of right now that 1842 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:42,239 we should consider while we're not in 1843 01:36:42,239 --> 01:36:44,360 session I think I think the way to 1844 01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:48,679 handle this to order for us to come to a 1845 01:36:48,679 --> 01:36:52,199 conclusion is we come up with a list of 1846 01:36:52,199 --> 01:36:56,149 relevant questions 1847 01:36:56,159 --> 01:36:57,119 we 1848 01:36:57,119 --> 01:37:00,679 agree as a board on the answers to those 1849 01:37:00,679 --> 01:37:06,030 questions to each 1850 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:11,390 question and whatever those answers 1851 01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:14,040 are once they're put together becomes 1852 01:37:14,040 --> 01:37:16,790 our 1853 01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:19,600 decision I'm going to caveat that by 1854 01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:21,480 saying that I'm not sure that we have to 1855 01:37:21,480 --> 01:37:24,040 all agree on everything I think we have 1856 01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:26,400 to agree on an ultimate decision but I'm 1857 01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:28,840 not sure we have to agree you know I 1858 01:37:28,840 --> 01:37:31,280 think coming up with those two 1859 01:37:31,280 --> 01:37:35,639 questions is is will help us 1860 01:37:35,639 --> 01:37:38,480 Focus specific list of questions help to 1861 01:37:38,480 --> 01:37:44,149 help us 1862 01:37:44,159 --> 01:37:47,400 Focus can I be a devil's advocate so I 1863 01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:49,560 think that that's that's a very likely 1864 01:37:49,560 --> 01:37:51,960 scenario but I think that we have to 1865 01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:55,040 also know that in an event like this not 1866 01:37:55,040 --> 01:37:57,719 everybody's always going to agree right 1867 01:37:57,719 --> 01:38:01,199 um and so it could be that our decision 1868 01:38:01,199 --> 01:38:02,800 relies on the fact that we can't agree 1869 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:04,880 on it we just have to leave that open 1870 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:06,119 and it might be frustrating it's all 1871 01:38:06,119 --> 01:38:08,480 hell for everybody here but that might 1872 01:38:08,480 --> 01:38:11,960 be the result so just we're going to try 1873 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:14,400 to you know have this conversation all 1874 01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:17,480 come to the same mindset but um just let 1875 01:38:17,480 --> 01:38:20,990 I'm just throwing that out 1876 01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:23,599 there because that's part of us well I 1877 01:38:23,599 --> 01:38:27,679 mean how else so what other approach 1878 01:38:27,679 --> 01:38:30,560 would you suggest oh no I think I think 1879 01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:32,960 our our approach is good I'm just I'm 1880 01:38:32,960 --> 01:38:36,599 just saying that I think that you know 1881 01:38:36,599 --> 01:38:38,599 this situation there's only three of us 1882 01:38:38,599 --> 01:38:40,239 and I think that there's a pressure that 1883 01:38:40,239 --> 01:38:42,480 we all have to agree and I think we all 1884 01:38:42,480 --> 01:38:44,440 want to come to the same conclusion or 1885 01:38:44,440 --> 01:38:46,280 whatever it is right ideally that's what 1886 01:38:46,280 --> 01:38:48,119 we do I'm just saying that doesn't 1887 01:38:48,119 --> 01:38:50,760 always happen if we had a full board it 1888 01:38:50,760 --> 01:38:52,639 might be a two three Vote or a 4-1 Vote 1889 01:38:52,639 --> 01:38:55,159 or something sure but so we might not 1890 01:38:55,159 --> 01:38:57,320 all agree and when you said answer the 1891 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:58,960 questions okay that's all I'm saying I 1892 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:00,480 thought you were saying going to help us 1893 01:39:00,480 --> 01:39:03,950 come to a to 1894 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:07,280 a I don't want to say come to a decision 1895 01:39:07,280 --> 01:39:10,000 because all three of us may not 1896 01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:14,280 agree but what process is going to help 1897 01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:18,320 us to to finish the conversation so I 1898 01:39:18,320 --> 01:39:20,639 think we've already like not to maybe to 1899 01:39:20,639 --> 01:39:23,199 over over recap of of what we've done is 1900 01:39:23,199 --> 01:39:24,080 I 1901 01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,239 there's there a lot A lot has been 1902 01:39:26,239 --> 01:39:28,560 presented a lot has happened and from 1903 01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:30,800 where I sit today I have not heard 1904 01:39:30,800 --> 01:39:33,480 anyone make serious arguments that we 1905 01:39:33,480 --> 01:39:35,599 should be considering anything about a 1906 01:39:35,599 --> 01:39:37,520 moratorium resolution other than the 1907 01:39:37,520 --> 01:39:39,440 start and end dates the only doesn't 1908 01:39:39,440 --> 01:39:41,679 matter the interpretation of it the 1909 01:39:41,679 --> 01:39:44,080 legality of it that is outside of the 1910 01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:46,199 scope of this board which I think is a 1911 01:39:46,199 --> 01:39:48,800 massive thing taken off of our plates 1912 01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:54,280 for the next two meetings because that we're not discussing the legality 1913 01:39:54,280 --> 01:39:56,880 or any issues regarding moratoriums 1914 01:39:56,880 --> 01:39:59,080 ordinances resolutions we're saying 1915 01:39:59,080 --> 01:40:02,560 there was a moratorium and it ended um 1916 01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:05,960 but nothing kind of in between about the 1917 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:07,480 specifics of that and I think taking 1918 01:40:07,480 --> 01:40:10,199 that off the table has been a pretty big 1919 01:40:10,199 --> 01:40:13,679 win even even from this first session I 1920 01:40:13,679 --> 01:40:16,679 mean unless someone has a real 1921 01:40:16,679 --> 01:40:17,960 disagreements help with how I just 1922 01:40:17,960 --> 01:40:21,119 summarize that um I haven't gotten any 1923 01:40:21,119 --> 01:40:23,960 indication that we want to we want to 1924 01:40:23,960 --> 01:40:27,960 turn in that direction um and once we've 1925 01:40:27,960 --> 01:40:30,560 done that we've now gotten to only a 1926 01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:31,520 couple 1927 01:40:31,520 --> 01:40:34,000 things that we actually are going to 1928 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:36,960 consider some of them are procedural 1929 01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:40,800 process timing and checklist issues some 1930 01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:43,719 of them are what are the important 1931 01:40:43,719 --> 01:40:46,119 inflection points which we should 1932 01:40:46,119 --> 01:40:49,000 discuss and I think I I mean from where 1933 01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:52,320 we started here that seems pretty much 1934 01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:54,560 pretty narrow I think we keep doing this 1935 01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:56,119 go ahead use the word when you say 1936 01:40:56,119 --> 01:40:59,199 process process yeah you're talking 1937 01:40:59,199 --> 01:41:01,480 about the process that will get us to a 1938 01:41:01,480 --> 01:41:04,280 decision or talking about the um 1939 01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:06,480 sequence of events that occurred I'm 1940 01:41:06,480 --> 01:41:08,239 talking about the checklist of things 1941 01:41:08,239 --> 01:41:11,920 that we need to go through to say that 1942 01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:14,040 this these these things that we are kind 1943 01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:15,560 of when I say process I mean the things 1944 01:41:15,560 --> 01:41:16,800 that we already kind of went through is 1945 01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:18,840 it appealable is it timely was it a 1946 01:41:18,840 --> 01:41:21,080 decision of the zoning those questions 1947 01:41:21,080 --> 01:41:22,320 those are question those are process 1948 01:41:22,320 --> 01:41:24,199 question those are questions 1949 01:41:24,199 --> 01:41:28,040 yeah list those questions and we each 1950 01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:32,080 say on each question we each say yes no 1951 01:41:32,080 --> 01:41:34,280 yeah I think I think that's the way 1952 01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:35,639 that's what I was getting to okay I 1953 01:41:35,639 --> 01:41:37,400 thought you were saying that like we all 1954 01:41:37,400 --> 01:41:39,080 had to say yes to those question like to 1955 01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:40,800 the same question okay yeah okay I think 1956 01:41:40,800 --> 01:41:44,119 we come with a list of questions 1957 01:41:44,119 --> 01:41:51,070 first and then we debate each of those 1958 01:41:51,080 --> 01:41:53,960 questions and hopefully at the end 1959 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:57,040 and we'll have 1960 01:41:57,040 --> 01:42:01,000 enough enough uh cohesiveness will be 1961 01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:03,199 able to come to a 1962 01:42:03,199 --> 01:42:07,040 decision so so explicitly explicitly the 1963 01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:08,719 question list those 1964 01:42:08,719 --> 01:42:14,960 questions I think I've got I think the list of um of issues that these 1965 01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:18,080 process issues we can shrink these down 1966 01:42:18,080 --> 01:42:19,239 from 1967 01:42:19,239 --> 01:42:21,719 a five days 30 days blah blah blah we 1968 01:42:21,719 --> 01:42:23,719 can shrink these shrink these down and 1969 01:42:23,719 --> 01:42:26,760 add if if there's other parts 1970 01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:28,920 of other things that we need to consider 1971 01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,320 we can add to you call them process 1972 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:33,320 issues that confuses yeah sorry about 1973 01:42:33,320 --> 01:42:35,159 that yeah sorry 1974 01:42:35,159 --> 01:42:38,080 um there a list of questions that are 1975 01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:41,199 relevant what's the answer each one I 1976 01:42:41,199 --> 01:42:44,520 think that's right um just say you may 1977 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:49,040 find that you don't all agree on each 1978 01:42:49,040 --> 01:42:51,920 question but the point is will you be 1979 01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:54,960 able to agree at the end of the road on 1980 01:42:54,960 --> 01:42:57,920 a final decision you may win some you 1981 01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,520 may lose some uh in the individual 1982 01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:03,719 questions but uh you need to come to an 1983 01:43:03,719 --> 01:43:07,040 agreement as to the final uh 1984 01:43:07,040 --> 01:43:11,750 outcome
