This is what everybody's However We're not pushing forward located That perpetuates I already show you a number of years
celebrate because of 68% domin actually comes closer to planting buffer along the rear foot and the building is shorter than we
show right now instead of having inside reposition building how does that Right okay okay working between commercial and resial this area right
now about 10 ft of it that was years ago basically presidential actually from 11.1 circulation countyway

on circulation plan exterior lighting landscaping restrictions approvals to traffic state those are the preliminary requirements we'll reinvard the
requirement proposed 6 ft is required.36 proposed building coverage 60% commercial retail 30 is the requirement I don't
know what you're proposing to resid stated articulate that the other signage already max each one on each side and then the defense height is
going to go articulate that better and then I don't know how I write that and then I also noted the waivers Mr mr balance's letter and then I guess
from the Avenue streetscape requirements the city of Margate to the extent the county yes from the property 10.7 Michael Richmond
one of our big objectives in Margate is to try to maintain as much commercial space to just keep the community vibrant we don't want it to be a bedroom community like some people would like it to be
like I said before that area has always been commercial i would like to see it preserved that commercial i think building is going to be a beautiful building i think it's going to really enhance the downtown
area i like the idea of having the rental apartments i don't really see a problem with any of the projects rich Patterson a year or so
ago four bedrooms each came to fruition rental steven just Tulsa as we've heard in testimony some of the neighbors concerns addressed others considered
history that anyone building is consistent and definite improvement to that block ceiling height and welcoming design as
well and the applicant has a proven track record here in market on site so all these are positives rosenberg john P motion carries
