Um a lastly we are [1:12] in deliberations for case 2023 Rodenreal [1:16] Incorporated Donovan Estates LLC to [1:18] consider an application from Rodenreal [1:20] Donovan Estates Estates of 4160 Mir [1:22] Avenue uh for a decision on [1:24] interpretation alleged error to article [1:25] 6 section 2923 2931 A1 and A6 of the [1:28] Ches Beach zoning ordinance and C309 [1:31] C310 C311 of the Chesapeake Beach Town [1:34] Charter. uh applicant requests that the [1:36] Ches Beach Zoning Board of Appeals to [1:38] quote order the zoning administrator and [1:39] planning and zoning commission to [1:41] immediately commence and prioritize the [1:42] processing and review of the relevant [1:44] site plan submitted by Rod and Real.

All right. Where we left [2:01] it last time was we had uh [2:04] discussed uh the where the board stood [2:08] uh verbally and we had sent Fred off [2:12] with his uh lawyer hat on to uh write [2:15] that up. After some uh Fred, is there [2:19] something you'd like to say? No, I was [2:21] just going to say after the last [2:23] meeting, uh the board board members [2:27] worked with me to prepare a draft of a [2:30] resolution uh embodying the decision of [2:34] the board. Uh I want to thank board [2:36] members for their [2:38] cooperation. Uh I think we went through [2:41] eight or so drafts of the resolution. [2:44] Some revision uh more significant than [2:47] others. and [2:50] uh have before you tonight for [2:53] consideration a resolution disposing of [2:56] this case. Thank you, Fred. Um yeah, uh [3:01] at this point in time, I know we've all [3:03] done this, but for the record, is there [3:05] anything any of our board members [3:08] uh would like to state [3:11] or comments they have about the [3:14] resolution on paper that we have here? [3:17] anything worth mentioning? [3:21] No. [3:23] Uh all right. In that case, we will [3:27] um get to [3:31] voting. [3:32] [Music] [3:34] Um let's [3:38] see. Okay. So, I'm just going to read [3:40] this last bit on the decision if that's [3:41] all right. Okay. So the decision that we [3:45] are now uh voting on is whether or not [3:49] to put our names on the [3:51] following. Um there before this [3:55] particular block of text there are a lot [3:57] of reasoning for the board's decision [3:59] but ultimately this is uh where we land. [4:02] So the decision states for the forgoing [4:04] reasons it is this the 31st [4:08] um uh day of March 2025 by the board of [4:12] appeals of the town of Chesapeake Beach [4:14] at least three members of the board who [4:16] attended all proceedings uh concurred [4:19] ordered that the appeal of the Rodri [4:21] Incorporated Donovan Estates LLC in case [4:24] 2303 is hereby dismissed. [4:27] I will go around the room and ask if you [4:31] are willing to put your name on that [4:33] decision. Uh Mr. [4:43] [Music] [4:45] I'm sorry. Uh the motion should be does [4:49] the board approve the resolution uh [4:52] deciding case number [4:55] 2023-3 as presented. All right. Um so it [5:00] is [5:01] um Mr. Dhy, do you accept the resolution [5:05] as it's presented? [5:07] I do. Miss Everett, do you accept the [5:10] resolution as presented? I do.
