>> I. I. >> All right. The appro the minutes have been approved. We'll move on to our public comment section. >> The citizens of Avido about their moral values and some questions they might all want to ask themselves, including you up here tonight. The first question is, is
stolen valor bad? Would you all vote for someone who stole valor from other heroic soldiers? I'm going to read. Is voting for a Somalian Ilmar Omar a good thing or a bad thing? Would you
vote for someone who voted to keep a Somalian who ridiculed our country in office? Is renting a vacation rental in Florida part-time, fully furnished, and claiming that you're a resident of the state of Florida a good thing or a bad thing?
Would you vote for someone that rents down here and actually lives in another state? Do you support term limits for congressional candidates and congressional incumbents? Will you vote
for someone if you believe in term limits and vote them out? Is moral values more important than party labels? Will you vote for someone based on their moral conduct or will you vote for them because they got an R or D
behind their name? is paying is is not paying your federal taxes and receiving multiple IRS leans a good thing or a bad thing. Will you vote for someone who has multiple tax and IRS leans in the tens of thousand dollars and while they're campaigning the the
IRS leans are up in the hundreds of thousands of dollars? Will you vote for that person? Is it wrong when a business owner spends millions of dollars on their lavish lifestyle while the employees were laid off and go home and had to go home without pay? Will you vote for someone
like that is not paying your business loans and your business is foreclosed on and your employees have to go home? Will you vote for someone that has a foreclosure going on right now of $66 million and $34 million? That amount is interest
that they haven't paid. Will you vote for someone like that? >> Thank you. God bless you all. And I think you all know who I'm talking about is Cory Lee Mills, your current congressman. Thank you very much. And God bless the city. God bless everybody here. Thank you. Thank you. Um, I do not have any other written requests to speak. Is there anyone who would like to

a glitch ordinance where the staff uh, after the after the land development code was adopted in 2024, the staff encountered different things along the way and they figured out that, okay, this looked good on paper at the time, but it needed to be changed in order to
make it implementable. And so, they brought forward these also. They came up, they found the uh some inconsistencies on a few properties, multiple properties uh that needed to have a change of zoning in order for that zoning classification to uh to be consistent with the comprehensive plan
future land use designation. Uh the LA at your last uh at your last hearing, the staff presented to you a change to the fence requirements that has already been incorporated into the ordinance and uh the local planning agency conducted a
public hearing and they recommend adoption of the ordinance. The staff there aren't any other further changes to the ordinance other than the one that was just mentioned with the fences. Uh therefore staff recommends that you conduct a public hearing and uh adopt
ordinance number 1762. >> Okay. Thank you Mr. Cobb. Uh this is a public hearing. I don't have any written request to speak. Is it a written request to speak? Is there anyone in the audience that would like to address this at this time? Hearing none, I will close the public

Saturday night about turning off the reclaim so that we wouldn't have oversprays and and icy patches out there. I thought that was a a great idea. Um I didn't hear anybody really complain about it, but it was a smart thing to do. And I don't know if we've done it before. Uh no, it was the first
time. Yeah. So, it's probably a smart thing to do so that we didn't have any issues there. So, fortunately, we all get through the weather in this. Um, outside of that, that's all I got. >> Okay. Council member Britain, >> I don't have much. I think Mr. Brford
